Chapter 985 Devouring the Blood Eye (4K views, please vote!)

"Squeak!"

After the Blood Lord left, the Blood Eye that Gao Yang had been holding began to stir again, constantly emitting screams that made Gao Yang's blood boil.

Gao Yang snorted coldly and suddenly clenched his fist tightly.

Bloodshot eyes twisted and deformed under his immense force, yet struggled even more violently.

The sword light flashed again, and a small amount of blood squeezed out from the blood-red eye. Its size shrank even further, but its struggles became even stronger.

Left with no other choice, Gao Yang had to stop.

If he continued to try, the bloodshot eye would likely struggle stronger than him, thus breaking free from his grasp and escaping this place.

Gao Yang turned his head and glanced at Milofina, whom he had pushed into the distant starry sky. In a flash, he appeared beside Milofina.

Immediately afterwards, starlight burst forth, and the plump Kun Kun's round body quickly emerged from the starlight.

"Woo~"

Fat-headed Kun rubbed its big head against Gao Yang's palm and shook its body happily.

Gao Yang patted his head and said, "Release the floating city."

The chubby Kun let out another whale roar, opening its mouth wide and spewing out dense starlight.

With a "whoosh," the floating city appeared in front of Gao Yang.

Gao Yang patted the chubby Kun Kun and flew into the floating city with him.

Upon entering the floating city, he placed the still unconscious Milofina back in her cat bed on the Chlogo tree.

Milofina's vital signs have stabilized thanks to the healing effect of the Life Source Fluid. She is still unconscious mainly due to excessive blood loss and needs time to recover.

As for Fathead Kunkun, he went to find Audreyville, familiar with the place.

Gao Yang gripped the Blood Eye sword, and with a flash of light, he flew out of the Floating City and appeared in the starry sky.

Blood Eye's struggle never stopped; letting it go was out of the question, so Gao Yang decided to try again.

With a flash of light, a black eyeball appeared beside Gao Yang; it was the evil artifact he had obtained: the Withered Eye - Moro.

As Gao Yang's strength increased, the effect of the Withered Eye became less useful to him, mainly because the information it could detect was very limited and had almost no practical significance in combat.

But this is the only evil artifact Gao Yang has obtained, and it is also an artifact that is constantly thinking of turning against him.

Therefore, Gao Yang decided to give it a try and see if this evil artifact could work.

The moment Gao Yang released the Withered Eye, the evil creature's gaze was immediately drawn to the blood-red eyeball in his hand.

That look in its eyes was like that of someone eyeing a delicious delicacy; a greedy, longing gaze emanated from its black pupils.

Its black eyeballs and body were almost pressed against Gao Yang's right hand, nearly squeezing into his palm through the gaps between his fingers.

Gao Yang reached out and grabbed the body of the Withered Eye - Moro, pulling it away.

Withered Eye - Moro's black eyes looked at Gao Yang, revealing obvious dissatisfaction and anger.

But when it saw Gao Yang's indifferent gaze, its eyes immediately became much clearer.

Gao Yang raised his right hand, brandishing the blood-red eye within, and coldly asked, "Want it?"

Withered Eye - Moro glanced at Gao Yang, then at the Blood Eye in his hand, his pupils twitching.

What about your contribution?

Gao Yang's words startled Moro, a hint of human-like doubt appearing in his dark pupils.

But soon, it looked at Gao Yang, and a black gaze shot into Gao Yang's eyes.

At the same time, a fragmented thought appeared in Gao Yang's mind: "Devour. Exchange loyalty."

Gao Yang looked at the withered eye before him. The meaning it had just revealed was not hard to understand: it wanted to devour this blood-red eye in exchange for its loyalty, so that it could serve Gao Yang wholeheartedly when needed.

But does it truly possess loyalty to this evil artifact?
The answer to this question is obvious.

Gao Yang did not expect the withered eye to be completely loyal to him, but that did not prevent him from using it.

So, under Moro's expectant gaze, Gao Yang opened his mouth and said, "You are already mine, and your loyalty means nothing to me."

Moro's pupils trembled, and after a moment they landed at the bottom of his eyes, whereupon a new thought was conveyed.

"Devour. More effective. Lock onto the true name. Unleash your full power."

Gao Yang looked at Moro. The Withered Eye meant that after it devoured the Blood Eye, its abilities would be further enhanced, and Gao Yang could actively use its abilities when needed.

Seeing this, Gao Yang said nothing more, but grabbed it and pressed it toward the blood-red eye in his right hand.

The Withered Eye - Moro's eyes suddenly widened, and then, under Gao Yang's gaze, they abruptly split open, revealing a gaping hole filled with black eye fluid and gelatinous flesh, resembling a gigantic black maw.

The next moment, it swallowed the blood-eyed creature whole and returned to its original state.

A hint of human satisfaction appeared in Moro's single eye, but the next moment, crimson bloomed from its depths, and its body began to deform as if it were rubber, as the blood-red eye it had devoured struggled within its body.

However, no matter how much Blood Eye struggled, it could not break through Moro's body.

Soon, the deformation of Moro began to decrease, gradually approaching calm.

When this deformation completely disappeared, the withered eye of Moro also closed instantly, as if it were a dead object.

Seeing this, Gao Yang reached out and put it into his backpack.

The fact that the Withered Eye could devour the Blood Lord's eyeball was quite unexpected, but in any case, the trouble caused by the Blood Eye was now resolved.

If this situation arises again in the future, the Withered Eye may still be able to play a role.

Gao Yang turned to look at the starry sky behind him where the battle had taken place. After the fierce fighting, the starry sky was in ruins, with sword energy and axe light crisscrossing within it, and the gravitational forces were in complete chaos.

In this shattered starry sky, only a pair of broken brass knuckles and a somewhat slender war bow remain.

The battle was too rushed. Gao Yang was ambushed and seriously injured at the very beginning. Every minute and every second thereafter was a life-or-death struggle. He went all out and there was no possibility of holding back at all.

This also resulted in Gao Yang not gaining even a single piece of information about a unique specialty after killing four members of the Pantheon.

This battle was a complete loss for Gao Yang.

The only positive outcome might be that Edward's remaining memories led him to discover the existence of the Blood Lord, a high-ranking member of the Pantheon, and that blood-red eyeball.

This gave Gao Yang a deeper understanding of the Pantheon, and at the same time, it further confirmed that the Pantheon was an exceptionally troublesome organization.

Such an organization is like a cold, venomous snake lurking in the darkness; the slightest relaxation will result in a fatal bite, ranging from severe injury to death. In the far distance, a light flickered at the Crystal Transfer Station, as if something was taking flight from it towards his location.

Gao Yang reached into his inventory and put the knuckle duster and war bow into his backpack before turning and stepping into the floating city.

Then, the floating city erupted with a burst of magical energy and quickly flew into the depths of the starry sky.

Only after the floating city had completely disappeared into the darkness did several figures flying out of the Crystal Bell Transfer Station arrive at this place.

However, all that remained was a devastated battlefield, devoid of any signs of life.

In a dark and desolate starry sky, a large number of meteorites are suspended.

Amidst the swirling meteorites, a floating city drifted silently, without a single ray of light.

Inside the floating city, in a villa, Gao Yang sat on the living room sofa, holding Milofina in his arms.

His injuries had been completely healed, but his right eye, which had been pierced by the female archer, had not yet grown back.

That arrow was not only extremely powerful, but it also possessed a highly corrosive force, which remained extremely corrosive even after Kelly's death.

It not only suppressed Gao Yang's self-healing ability, but also constantly eroded the surrounding area.

Gao Yang estimated that it would take about ten to fifteen days to completely extinguish this force with his own life force.

In the darkness, Milofina looked up at Gao Yang, her gaze lingering on his dark right eye, and asked in a weak voice:
"Gao Yang, are you feeling better?"

Gao Yang looked down at her, gently stroked her chin, and looked at the scab that had just formed on her head. He said softly, "It's all right now. But you, you must never do anything so foolish again."

One wrong move and you could really die.

Milofina shook her head and said proudly, "Meow~ I'm not that easy to die. I'm Milofina, the most talented cat spirit!"

"In short, it's best to avoid doing this kind of thing."

"How can that be? Do you expect me to just watch you die in front of me?" Milofina stared at Gao Yang with wide eyes, then said seriously, "Gao Yang, we are partners bound by souls. I am your exclusive support."

If I watch you die before my eyes, then who else should I support?

Gao Yang remained silent, and the entire living room fell silent as well.

After a moment, he slowly scratched Milofina's chin again and said, "My vitality is very strong. That kind of attack may not be able to kill me completely."

But you're different. If you suffered a fatal wound of that severity, you'd be in real danger.

Milofina pouted, stubbornly remaining silent.

Gao Yang gently stroked Milofina and spoke slowly in the darkness: "However, I really have to thank you this time, Milofina."

Milofina's stubbornness vanished, and she leaned comfortably against Gao Yang's chest, enjoying the tranquility of the moment.

In the living room, two souls, relying on each other, nestled quietly in the embrace of darkness.

After a long while, Gao Yang spoke again: "If the Purple Radiance Plane we are going to this time is too dangerous, then we will leave first."

"It's not too late to come here when you're strong enough."

Milofina looked up and said, "Gao Yang, are you worried?"

"Kind of."

Faced with this innocent cat spirit, Gao Yang nodded readily.

He was worried that this ambush was too sudden; he was just a hair's breadth away from losing his life along with Milofina.

Of course, what he was worried about was not his own safety, but Milofina's.

As a player on the cross-network, once he embarked on this path and survived his initial trials in the abyss, life and death no longer held any meaning for him.

He would climb to higher places, and even if he died during the climb, he would not regret it; at most, he would have some slight regrets.

But Milofina is different. Gao Yang can accept his own death, but that doesn't mean he can calmly watch Milofina die with him.

Milofina was just a cat spirit with no offensive capabilities, but the rats of the Gods' Guild wouldn't care about that. If he had been killed earlier, they were sure Milofina wouldn't have survived either.

Moreover, after experiencing this ambush, Gao Yang was certain that the next time he encountered members of the Pantheon, the opponents he would face would only be more terrifying.

Most importantly, Gao Yang didn't even know when, where, or in what form the other party would launch the next attack on him.

He didn't even know who the other person was.

Therefore, he needs to do everything he can to hide his tracks and reduce the frequency of his exposure to life in order to better conceal himself and make it possible for the next ambush to come later.

The best option, of course, is to choose a secluded location and use the teleportation function of the network to embark on various adventures, thereby accumulating one's own strength in the process.

However, by transmitting through the comprehensive network, it is possible to evade some of the detection by the Council of Gods.

Therefore, Gao Yang did not intend to let Milofina continue to follow him.

Although his maximum combat power would decrease without Milofina's assistance, he would rather Milofina live peacefully than suffer unnecessary disasters with him.

But if we let Milofina leave directly, she will definitely be angry.

Therefore, Gao Yang used the final destination of this trip, the Purple Radiance Plane, as an excuse.

After seeing the Purple Radiance Plane, he will leave on his own and allow Milofina to return to her hometown.

This way, Milofina could accept it to some extent.

After that, Gao Yang would be on his own to face the risks.

"Don't worry, I'm here." Milofina's voice rang out in the darkness.

“I know, but that’s precisely why I’m even more worried.”

Gao Yang stroked her smooth fur and continued, "I need time. I need to become stronger. I'm still too weak right now."

As Gao Yang spoke, he opened his personal information.

Currently, his highest strength attribute is only 34 points, which is a full six points away from the peak legendary level of 40 points.

Although he possesses the unique power boost provided by the God of War's exclusive skill, the Tyranny of the God of War, which allows his power to reach the pinnacle of legendary status.

However, his other attributes are still only at the level of an ordinary veteran legend, which is his weakness.

After Milofina returns to her hometown, his next plan is to improve his various attributes as much as possible.
