I went berserk in the game of gods.

Chapter 29: A Boss Battle Immediately Upon Entering the Dungeon?
Liu Xiong endured the pain, looked at Cao Yu, and replied in a trembling voice:

"Who exactly are you? What grudge do we have against each other...?"

"If you say another word, I'll twist your head off."

Cao Yu smiled as he uttered chilling words.

Those who frequently commit masked murders know that voice impersonation is a very useful skill, and it can be trained in just a few weeks.

At this moment, Cao Yu was wearing a hood and speaking in a hoarse, low voice, making it impossible for Liu Xiong to recognize his identity in a short time.

the other side.

Liu Xiong's uncle, Liu Xuanyin, had already distanced himself from Cao Yu, sensing the unfavorable situation. Standing at a distance, he glared angrily at Cao Yu and shouted a threatening message:

"Stop! How dare you! We are from the Liu family of the Four Mountains, and you actually dare to attack us...!? Don't think you can get away with it just because you fought in the dungeon. If you don't stop now, once we leave the dungeon, the Federation will have plenty of ways to find you! Your whole family will be executed for this!"

"Ha ha……"

Cao Yu naturally ignored such a bluffing threat.

Why are dungeons always such a prime location for killing and looting?
Because the player base exceeds 200,000.

Who became players, and who didn't return from the dungeon? Did they die in the dungeon crisis or from player feuds? Who went to which dungeon at which time and killed which person? The Federation simply didn't have the ability to investigate these things, so it basically adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards the vendettas in the dungeons.

The Liu family, one of the smaller families in Sishan City, didn't have the power to interfere with the work of the Sishan Special Affairs Bureau branch.

Cao Yu concealed his identity again this time, and no one knew that he had been to this instance.

Even openly, he and Liu Xiong had no personal grudges. The only potential problem was that Liu Xiong had made a few sarcastic remarks about him in the graduating class...

This encounter in the dungeon was purely coincidental... With such perfect conditions, Cao Yu didn't want to hold back for even a second.

He's going to kill someone right now!
When the Liu family realized Liu Xiong was dead and launched an investigation, they found that Liu Xiong was murdered. After eliminating forces with grudges or conflicts of interest with the Liu family, and suspecting him based on the trivial dispute of "framing by the graduating class" that didn't even qualify as a conflict... he was at least a senior D-level player, if not a C-level player.

By then, what will the Liu family be?
Cao Yu looked at Liu Xiong and asked again, as if urging him to give up:

How much is your life worth?

"..."

Liu Xiong dared not utter another word of nonsense, and, suppressing his pain, replied in a very fast voice:

"I've used up all my evolution points. Just help me get out of this instance alive, and I'll be able to get home..."

*Thud*—Without the slightest hesitation, Cao Yu crushed Liu Xiong's head with a single stomp.

Even if Liu Xiong pays the money, he's still going to die today.

Not paying... isn't that even more despicable?

'Poor wretch.'

Cao Yu cursed inwardly.

Is this what you call the sons of the powerful and wealthy?

Fortunately, he didn't come away empty-handed—he inherited Liu Xiong's E-rank item called "Earth-Emerging Stone Sword".

Although this kind of offensive item is useless to him, he can still sell it if he doesn't need it.

The Meishan District where he lives has the largest black market for players in the coastal areas. Even if something is a hot potato, there is no shortage of buyers in Meishan District.

Even if you're worried about the safety of the black market... there's still An Li, whose identity is not simple, so this girl probably doesn't lack safe channels for buying and selling props.

"You...how dare you!?"

When Liu Xuanyin saw Cao Yu kill Liu Xiong, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets—not out of anger, but out of fear.

Killing people right at the start of the dungeon, without any regard for the potential risks... How can there be such a madman!
Cao Yu then turned his head and looked at Liu Xuanyin:
"You just threatened me, didn't you?"

"I……"

Liu Xuanyin took a few steps back. In his eyes, the smiling Cao Yu was as terrifying as a demon.

"How much is your life worth?" Cao Yu walked towards him: "I hope you can be a little smarter than the one lying on the ground."

"No...don't come over here!"

Liu Xuanyin was terrified. As a slacker in the clan, he received no support from any resources and had long since squandered all his evolution points.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have shamelessly come to Liu Xiong to ask him to take him under his wing.

Where would he get the money to buy his own life?
In desperation, he instinctively looked at the other players, following the habitual instincts cultivated by his pampered upbringing, and began to make verbal threats:
"Are you just going to stand by and watch? I'm a member of the Liu family of the Four Mountains! If something happens to me, you won't escape either! This guy is a madman! Quick, kill him together!"

No one paid any attention to him.

No one dared to make a move against Cao Yu.

"You're asking for death!" Cao Yu suddenly charged towards Liu Xuanyin.

Liu Xuanyin disregarded the threats and quickly fled towards the outside of the square.

As a player at the Immortal level, he had already completed all the evolutions at the E-rank stage, making him significantly faster than Cao Yu. Seeing this, Cao Yu no longer hesitated to expend his mental energy, muttering "Blood Wind Does Not Melt Bones" and activating the item.

At the E-level, Superman players primarily evolve their mental strength, but their physical abilities are inferior to the other two types of players.

However, the gap at the E-level stage is very small. With the help of props, Cao Yu, who had completed his zombie transformation, quickly caught up with Liu Xuanyin.

"Bright Light Shield!"

Liu Xuanyin activated the prop. A semi-transparent light emerged, gathered together, and formed a spherical protective shield, enveloping him inside.

This light shield not only possessed defensive capabilities but also emitted a dazzling light, like a pure flashbang without any hearing-blocking effect, blinding Cao Yu.

However, Cao Yu in his zombie form has an exceptionally keen sense of smell for blood, making it easy for him to identify and capture his prey.

With his eyes closed, he relied on his sense of smell to precisely control his direction as he moved forward. The protective shield made of light energy was as fragile as paper, shattering at the slightest impact.

"for……"

In his despair, Liu Xuanyin tried to shout, "Why can't I stop him?" But Cao Yu's claws had already swept over, shattering all his means of retaliation and cleaving him into six pieces, his shattered corpses scattered all over the ground.

Until his death, he never understood why his seemingly invincible defensive items couldn't even hold off his opponent for a second.

Could it be that the other party is a dungeon boss in disguise, specifically impersonating a player to sabotage him?
He couldn't bring himself to ask that question.

Because he is dead.

In Cao Yu's mind, the notification sound of inheriting the E-level item "Bright Light Shield" rang out.

He immediately deactivated his transformation and returned to the group of players inside the plaza.

With him included, there are now only 10 players left.

Upon seeing Cao Yu approach, all the players except An Li retreated in unison, as if they were afraid that Cao Yu would say something like, "How much are your lives worth?" and then kill them like monsters with a swift stroke.

Damn, that's really scary!
No joke.

Several people were even speculating that this dungeon might not be a Werewolf game mode, and that Cao Yu was the dungeon boss in disguise... They didn't bring any intelligence into the dungeon, so how did they encounter a boss battle at the very beginning?

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, and considering the possibility of cooperating with other players later, Cao took the initiative to explain:
"Don't worry, everyone. I'm not some criminal player who kills and robs. I have an incurable feud with the Liu family of Sishan! My actions just now were solely for revenge! There was no other intention."

Strictly speaking, there wasn't really any grudge, but there's something called emotional intelligence... He continued:
“I used to have a very happy family, with harmonious siblings… The Liu family was a powerful and wealthy family in Sishan City…”

He became more and more indignant as he spoke, and eventually stopped talking altogether, only expressing himself silently with his eyes—making up too much would give him away, as long as the emotions were right.

I forgot the beginning, I forgot the middle, I forgot the end... In short, he and the Liu family are sworn enemies!
"..."

The group looked at each other, and after about ten seconds, they temporarily accepted this explanation.

The powerful oppress the people, and ordinary people fight for revenge, becoming players... Since the advent of the Evolution Game, this kind of thing has happened very frequently, almost becoming a classic revenge story template.

Standing next to Cao Yu, An Li was naturally not fooled by this explanation.

She glanced at Cao Yu a few times, becoming even more certain that Cao Yu was a kindred spirit.

He was seized by a urge to chop people up, so he dismembered a few guys he didn't like... Although his behavior was a bit heinous, he was chopping up powerful and arrogant people, so it was alright.

At this moment, a man with a buzz cut wearing gym workout clothes said to Cao Yu:
"No wonder you were wearing a hood. I've heard of the Liu family and the Liu Group's reputation; they're definitely not good people. But... brother, are you really an E-level player? You were pretty aggressive just now!"

"I was lucky enough to get a powerful item that combines offense and defense." Cao Yu regained his composure and explained truthfully, "Plus, my evolution level has reached 11%, which allows me to fully unleash the effects of an E-rank item... Get it?"

While explaining, he glanced at the speaker and noticed that the man's muscles were clearly defined and strong, and with his training attire... he might actually be a fitness instructor.

"11%? You've broken through the evolution limit of an E-level player? No wonder you were able to withstand the attacks of those two and force your way through."

A middle-aged man interrupted. He was standing next to the fitness instructor, dressed in a custom-made business casual suit, wearing an expensive watch, and with his hair styled in a slicked-back style with hair oil, exuding the aura of a successful businessman.

The businessman and the fitness coach are standing very close together, making it easy to see that they know each other in real life.

"Now is not the time to talk about this."

A woman dressed in martial arts attire, with a stern face and a strong air of female warrior, spoke up:
“My player panel shows that the dungeon opens at 6:30 PM, and our task is to survive for 24 hours. The dungeon prompt also mentions ‘the dead will sleep forever in their graves’... I think you all understand what this means, right?”

"That means we'll have to spend the night in a dungeon involving supernatural forces," a tall, thin man with glasses replied. "Supernatural dangers usually run rampant at night, and it's not far from dark now."

“That’s right,” the female warrior affirmed the bespectacled man’s words, “Instead of talking back and forth here, we should go explore the dungeon as soon as possible and try to find some information that can help us avoid danger before dark.”

“But we need a direction to gather intelligence, and I’m completely lost right now.” A boy with delicate features and an age between teenager and young adult looked at the female warrior and asked, “Sister, have you perhaps thought of a clue?”

"What clues could we possibly have?" The female warrior shook her head. "However, the dungeon hints mentioned that the dead will sleep eternally in their graves. Perhaps we could go to the cemetery and check out the situation first?"

This instance is truly baffling. At the start, players are thrown into a plaza, and the background content and instance prompts seem unrelated. The mission is simply to survive... So, where exactly is the danger?
Just then, An Li suddenly stood up and posed a question:
"Are you guys feeling very hungry?"

"..."

Everyone carefully examined their own condition and were immediately surprised—they all felt hungry.

what happened?
