I went berserk in the game of gods.

Chapter 15 Demon Slayer
Cao Yu's arrogance successfully aroused Xia He's hatred, making him the primary target of her attacks.

The severed python writhed, and the red hair that made up its body grew wildly, returning it to its original state in a second.

Then the nine giant pythons attacked Cao Yu all at once.

The impact whipped up a fierce wind that swept across their faces, its force terrifying, but Cao Yu remained fearless, his eyes cold, choosing to charge head-on.

Now that the "Immortal Slaying Curse" covers his entire body, he can feel his spirit being severely depleted, and he must finish this battle quickly!

He shot into the battlefield like a sharp arrow, unstoppable and invincible.

If there's a mountain in front, smash it to pieces; if there's a sea in front, cleave it in two.

His body crashed through the ferocious giant python, tearing apart countless red hairs, and rapidly approached Xia He's true form.

"Why can't I stop them...! Why can't I break through their defenses...! Stop! Don't come any closer!"

Xia He screamed.

Cao Yu's fierce demeanor not only stopped her from laughing, but also silenced her anger and resentment.

In less than ten seconds, she lost her will to fight.

It's obvious that she only plays well when things are going well; she reveals her true colors as a useless player when she encounters adversity.

However, this cannot be blamed on her. "Seven Killings Master" ranks eleventh on the overall superpower list of the entire evolution game, and his main attack is killing, which cannot be countered by ordinary means.

"I'm not fighting anymore! I'm not fighting anymore!"

Xia He's face gradually turned to terror, and without further hesitation, she retreated.

She actually ran away!
Seeing Cao Yu relentlessly pursuing her, her fear intensified:

"Damn it! Stop chasing me! Stop right now...!"

"Heh, go ahead and scream. No one will come to save you even if you scream your lungs out!"

Cao Yu grinned maliciously, his voice filled with murderous intent.

At this time,

Under An Li's control, the three corpse puppets that had successfully circled around suddenly jumped out from Xia He's escape route and pounced on her.

"Go away!"

Xia He drew out a giant python and slammed it forward... Bang! This attack was blocked by the "blood shield" deployed by the wide and flat corpse puppet.

The wide, flat corpse puppet was smashed away, its body nearly shattered into pieces, but it successfully deflected the giant python's attack direction, creating an opportunity for the dwarf corpse puppet and the long-armed corpse puppet to get closer.

The dwarf corpse puppet leaped in front of Xia He, its gaping maw, splitting to its ears, lunging for her neck. Seeing this, Xia He, disregarding her efforts to stop Cao Yu, quickly drew out a giant python to retaliate.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the long-armed corpse puppet stretched out its arms and bound Xia He's body with ropes, binding her to the spot.

The corpse puppet's body strength is not low, but it is still too weak against Xia He. She could probably break free of these restraints in just a few moves.

However, these few moves take time.

While Xia He was tied up, Chen Ran, who was at the back, took a deep breath, gripped the middle of the "Flaming Staff" tightly, and threw it like a javelin with all his might!

Growing up in a military family, Chen Ran received shooting training from a young age and possessed exceptional talent, consistently hitting her target within 100 meters. After entering the Fourth Academy, she underwent rigorous and primitive training in throwing weapons, extending her talent into this field.

At such a short distance, and with a fixed target, there was absolutely no way she could have missed!
With a whooshing sound, the "Flame Staff" shot out as a streak of light, colliding with the air and sparking a series of sparks, like a bolt of lightning piercing through Xia He's back... Boom! The ensuing fiery explosion blasted Xia He's body in two.

Even so, Xia He did not die, but her breath was much weaker.

Her body, which had been severed in two, was quickly brought together and reconnected with the help of the writhing of a large amount of long red hair, and then it healed itself back to its original state at an extremely fast speed.

"This is possible...!?" Chen Ran was dumbfounded.

Fortunately, Cao Yu managed to break through to Xia He's side during those few seconds his teammates had bought him.

He simultaneously activated the "Immortal Slaying Spell" and the "Eternal Wound Spell," raised his hand, gripped the barbell tightly, and slashed—this time, he didn't slash vertically. Xia He's body was petite, and once she exerted force, the long red hair on her body would be very agile in dodging, making it easy to avoid vertical slashes.

He cut it in half at the waist!
The summer lotus, which had just healed, broke in two again.

And this time, no matter how she tried to close her body, it couldn't heal.

Some unseen and intangible force is hindering her self-healing.

Her breath grew weaker and weaker, and her voice, tinged with fear, grew softer and softer:
"Why can't it heal...why..."

She looked at Cao Yu with a mixture of resentment and fear:

"Monster! You monster! You can't kill me! What will Shi'an do if I die? He needs me. You have no idea how precious our love is. You can't..."

"Stop chattering so loudly, go talk to my superpowers instead!"

Cao Yu swung the barbell and chopped it down, this time vertically, splitting the two halves of Xia He into four pieces.

The nine giant pythons dispersed.

The dense red fur stopped wriggling and spread out on the ground like a carpet.

An Li and Chen Ran took the opportunity to move closer.

The three of them observed and confirmed... Xia He was indeed dead.

However, they continued to finish off Xia He and whip her corpse until Xia He was completely shattered.

The three then looked at Song Shi'an, who had fallen to the ground. Even without Xia He's restraint and control, Song Shi'an remained dazed and confused. After landing, his body became increasingly transparent and soon vanished without a trace.

It looks like its soul has been scattered.

However, none of the three felt any sympathy.

While a man who plays with people's feelings may not be guilty of a capital offense, it is a matter of moral depravity. However, if he encounters a ruthless person, he will have to swallow his pride and accept his bad luck.

After the battle, Cao Yu felt a mix of emotions. This time, both of his teammates had been incredibly helpful, creating an opportunity for him to finish the fight quickly.

If he were the only one fighting, facing a cowardly monster like Xia He... he would probably have to feign weakness first, using some injuries to lower her guard, drawing out her arrogance and contempt, and then kill her with a single blow once she got close.

Otherwise, if you are too aggressive, and the other party runs away, the pursuit alone will take an unknown amount of effort.

This is the advantage of a team.

Looking at Xia He's dismembered body, Cao Yu said:

"As it turns out, cutting someone in half is not a fatal blow for some beings."

"Is that why you always chop vertically?" Chen Ran complained.

An Li squatted down, touched Xia He's body parts, and sighed inwardly.

Her superpowers failed again.

It was clear that Cao Yu had once again used that mysterious method to destroy the usability of the corpse.

However, she felt no resentment. "Tiouyuan" was essentially the boss of this instance; to fight it without going all out was simply irresponsible towards one's own life.

Chen Ran became interested upon seeing An Li's actions:
"Are you going to use her to create a puppet? With such good material, the puppet you create will probably be incredibly powerful! This is going to be a windfall!"

"I hate being love-struck." An Li stood up, wiped her hands with a wet wipe she bought for free, and said with disdain, "Refining the corpse of someone like her will affect my IQ."

"Uh... why is there a hierarchy of contempt in puppet making?"

Chen Ran, a pragmatist, found it incomprehensible.

An Li changed the subject:
"Side Quest 2, not completed."

"The boost we received includes a map-wide cheat that can sense the location of ghosts," Chen Ran speculated. "This is probably an indication that we need to kill all the other ghosts to complete the mission."

"Let's split up," Cao Yu suggested. "These ordinary ghosts are no longer a threat to us. Let's take advantage of the amplification buff and clear them out quickly."

“Alright,” Chen Ran pulled the staff from the ground and nodded, “Then let’s hurry up.”

This time, she didn't object to the plan to split up, after all, the situation was different.

She was timid and hesitant before because she was weak.

Now, she's going to save the world.

Because she is kind!

……

The three quickly separated and began their hunt for the demon.

This process did not last long.

Because when night falls, those ghosts without corpses and without preparations descend upon the City of Song, and become easy prey for the "corpse ghosts," with many being slaughtered.

This is equivalent to internal strife leading to staff reductions.

Cao Yu adheres to the principle of "killing ghosts but not people," and when he encounters a ghost that has completed the resurrection ritual, he will choose to let it go.

Even so, he still killed 19 ghosts.

Incidentally, he ranks second in terms of kills.

Chen Ran, who had the strongest physical abilities, was ranked last. Although she could run faster than a cheetah, she couldn't maintain that speed for long. And since the ghosts were scattered throughout the city, her efficiency was naturally much lower when traveling on foot.

Cao Yu overtook other vehicles on a curve by riding a motorcycle. When the city roads were congested, he would activate the "Immortal Slaying Spell" when he encountered an obstacle, attaching it to the motorcycle and driving recklessly, treating the city roads like highways. His efficiency was incredibly fast.

Nevertheless, he still lost to An Li.

Because this little girl... damn it, she actually flew up using the "Dust-Free Golden Ring"!
We're all newbie players, how can she fly? Is there any justice in this world?
Cao Yu could only say, "As expected of a D-level item."

Half past nine in the evening.

The three returned to the shopping mall where they had fought Xia He and successfully reunited.

They have all received notifications from the evolution game:

You have completed side quest two.

"Finally finished!" Chen Ran glanced at the panel and said, "There's only an hour and a half left until the main quest 'Survive for 12 Hours' ends. Where do we go next?"

An Li looked at Cao Yu: "Buddha Mother Temple, shall we go?"

“We shouldn’t go now,” Cao Yu shook his head. “There’s too much uncertainty about the Buddha Mother.”

He had originally thought that after killing "Tiouyuan," information related to the Buddha Mother would appear. However, up to this point, he still hadn't been able to ascertain whether the Buddha Mother adhered to the balance of the instance.

The so-called balance means that if a dungeon presents a difficult problem, it will definitely provide a solution. "Tiouyuan" is very strong and players cannot defeat it, so the "suicide method" was created.

This is balance.

The Buddha Mother was never in the instance quest.

In other words, He may or may not adhere to the balance.

What if He doesn't abide by... The player's current power boost is based on His rules, who knows if He can take it back?

To try and seduce the Buddha Mother is nothing short of gambling.

With an hour and a half left before the main quest ends, provoking the Buddha Mother now could lead to disaster if she doesn't know any martial ethics.

"Not going now?" An Li seized on the key point.

"Don't get your hopes up." Cao Yu shook his head: "I'm just a little curious about the Buddha Mother, so I decided to go to the Buddha Mother Temple to check things out after the main quest is over. I don't plan to do anything during the quest."
