Life Dungeon Game

Several more gunshots rang out, and exploding bullets flew everywhere.

But none of the shots hit their mark.

The bearded man glanced at the empty magazine of his pistol, gritted his teeth, threw it away, pulled a steel dagger from his waist, blade facing upwards, a fierce glint in his eyes, and raised the dagger to stab at He Ao's neck.

He Ao glanced at him, then stepped aside, dodging the thrust. At the same time, he hooked one hand around the bearded man's elbow holding the knife and the other hand gripped his wrist, applying force in a cross motion.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the sharp dagger spun in the night and pierced the bearded man's throat.

Then He Ao stepped forward, passed by the bearded man, and coughed lightly, covering his mouth.

The bearded man hunched over, kneeling on the ground, blood gushing from his wounds, his eyes wide open.

The deck, bobbing and tilting in the waves, carried his staggering body forward, his blood flowing, rolling off the wet, slippery deck and over the gunwale.

In the howling sea wind, the bearded man stared wide-eyed at everything below the ship's side.

There was no sign of the chainsaw man who had just fallen into the sea.

The open 'coffin' floated in the dark seawater, and beneath the coffin, in the darkness where no light could be seen, some kind of 'blood' seemed to be spreading out, soaking the seawater.

At the edge of the coffin, there were some fine 'foam', which appeared to be shredded meat.

An invisible black shadow slowly emerged from the seawater.

······

On the deck, He Ao let go of his hand, glanced at the blood he had coughed up into his palm, and looked ahead.

The 'mechanical boss' was nowhere to be seen on the pristine deck. While he was urging his two subordinates to charge forward, he himself rushed into the cabin without hesitation.

He Ao rolled up his sleeve, which was covered in seawater, and glanced at his arm.

Beneath that fair skin, it seemed as if some kind of twisted flesh was writhing, growing...

Sheng raised his thin, bony arm, which looked like skin covering bones.

New 'muscles' are forming beneath his skin.

The excruciating pain intensified, and with each step he took, his body would involuntarily tremble.

He lifted his foot and walked step by step toward the cabin.

He was on the aft deck of the ship, with the aft wall of the cabin in front of him, where some harpoons resembling javelins were scattered and fixed.

He reached out, grasped the outermost harpoon, and pulled it out.

······

Inside the captain's cabin, a burly, red-haired figure slammed a wrench on the control panel, which was flashing various red borders. His voice was hoarse and filled with suppressed anger.

"What the hell is wrong with this ship? The wireless communication system is down, the navigation system is unusable, and now even the compass is broken. Could it be that they deliberately gave us a bad ship so we'd die in the stormy sea?"

"Do not rush, the eternal light will protect his believers and guide our way."

Behind him, a man dressed in a pure white robe sat in the captain's seat, his eyes closed and his hand holding the golden pendant hanging from his chest.

Upon hearing this, the red-haired man instinctively wanted to curse, but he paused, forcibly held back, and nodded, "You're right."

boom--

Just then, the door to the captain's cabin was suddenly pushed open, and a man shrouded in metal rushed in. Looking at the man in white, he knelt down before him without hesitation, pleading, "Sir! You must save us!"

"what happened?"

The man in the white robe loosened his grip on the mechanical pendant, opened his eyes, and stared at the mechanical man in front of him.

"The child in that coffin,"

The mechanical man hurriedly said, trembling, "He has turned into a monster and crawled out of the storm sea. We must kill him, or we will all die here."

"They crawled out of the stormy sea?"

The man in the white robe was taken aback, his eyes widening slightly.

"Yes, yes, I saw his coffin sink into the stormy sea with my own eyes,"

The mechanical man said quickly, "He has become a monster on the stormy sea. We are all the most devout believers of the Eternal Light. He killed two of my men. I barely managed to escape. He is the embodiment of the devil! You must save us!"

The man in white robes glanced at the unharmed mechanical man, then slowly rose. "Get up. The eternal light will turn all darkness to ashes."

Then he slowly walked out of the captain's cabin.

"Boss?"

The red-haired man looked at the mechanical man still kneeling on the ground, somewhat bewildered.

The mechanical man watched the white-robed man's retreating figure, stood up, and dusted himself off. "We shouldn't have taken this job. We've gotten involved in things far beyond our capabilities. Greed is always a death sentence."

He looked up at the red-haired man. "There should be fishing and hunting mechs on this ship. Go and get them out. We have to kill that little monster here."

"Yes!"

The red-haired man nodded.

······

Outside the captain's cabin, He Ao watched the white-robed man emerge, his face calm.

"Have we met before?"

Chaotic memories of Ilo

He vaguely remembered seeing this person before. Among the people who surrounded and killed him and his brother, this man in white robes stood at the back and was the most conspicuous.

“Child, your body has been corrupted by demons,”

The man in white robes looked at He Ao with 'kindness' and said, "Put down your weapon, and the eternal light will cleanse the darkness within you."

He Ao stared at him calmly, then suddenly laughed, "Were my parents and brother also corrupted by the 'demon'?"

"certainly,"

The 'kindness' in the white-robed man's eyes turned cold. "They are all puppets controlled by demons. The eternal light cannot tolerate their filthy defilement, so it is necessary to completely eliminate them and let this world return to the right path."

"You speak with absolute certainty,"

He Ao smiled and looked at him, "Then you must have a lot of 'evidence' of our wrongdoings?"

The white-robed man's expression stiffened for a moment, then he continued calmly, "The Eternal Light is the proof."

“You say we’re demons,” Heo said, still smiling at him, “and that the Eternal Light is evidence of demons, so…”

He paused, the icy seawater seeping through his hair streaming down his smiling face. "The Eternal Light and the Demon are together? The Eternal Light is the most vicious demon in the world?"

Upon hearing this, the white-robed man's face instantly turned crimson. After a moment of silence, he angrily exclaimed, "Inciting unrest! How dare you blaspheme the great gods?"

"Ah."

He Ao looked at him, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

A look of joy appeared on the white-robed man's face. He knew that it must be the title of the deity that made the ignorant child feel fear.

Then he saw the thin child raise his head and calmly look at him.

"So what if I did blaspheme?"

boom--

The thunderous roar illuminated the sky and the sea, and a violent storm poured down from the depths of the dark clouds.

The frail boy stood on the swaying deck, amidst the wind and rain, like an ancient giant holding flames, majestic as a mountain.

Chapter 757 An Apostle of the Gods? (Long Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets)

The man in the white robe stared wide-eyed at the boy before him, his mind reeling and unable to comprehend the world around him.

He had never heard such heretical words before; the words echoed in his ears like the whispers of a true demon.

This is a world with gods. Even those who are not believers in the gods are in awe of their power and dare not easily talk about them.

How dare he!

"Ignorance! Foolishness! Arrogance! You will face the wrath of the gods!"

The white-robed man looked at He Ao with anger and trembling, and at the lightning that filled the sky behind He Ao. He was afraid that the wrath of the gods would descend and affect him, and he was also worried about why the wrath of the gods was slow to descend and destroy this blasphemous 'monster'.

He Ao looked up at his worried and cautious expression and gently shook his head. "You don't seem to understand the god you believe in, nor do you understand blasphemy, let alone divine punishment."

If he could easily trick the gods into punishing him with just a few words, he wouldn't have gone through so much trouble setting up so many communication arrays in the past.

“Your body has been completely corrupted by demons,”

The white-robed man waited in vain for the divine punishment he had longed for. Finally, his face turned bright red, and the circular pendant on his chest began to emit a dazzling light. He roared angrily, "I will obliterate your soul and body, and crush everything about you into dust."

Layers of golden light appeared before him, eventually forming a solid golden 'armor' that enveloped his entire body.

He raised his hand and threw a punch at He Ao without hesitation.

boom--

The golden armor struck the horizontal 'harpoon' with a crisp sound.

The man in the white robe stared wide-eyed at He Ao and the harpoon in his hand, "How is this possible... how could this harpoon be..."

He seemed unable to accept that Heo had blocked his armor-enhanced attack with just a readily available harpoon.

He Ao, who was enveloping the harpoon with his divine sense, calmly looked at the golden 'armor' covering the white-robed man, raising his eyebrows slightly.

Honor Knight?

No.

At this moment, the distorted 'vision' was still superimposed on He Ao's normal vision. He could still see the distorted lines in the sky, the white-robed man's soul mixed with distorted colors, and the distorted, untouchable orange glow contained in the illusory golden shield.

That was not the white-robed man's own power, but rather an extension of the aura of some high-ranking being.

The instant Heo 'saw' the distorted orange light, a chorus of praises for 'holiness' and 'light' echoed in his ears like a whoosh.

Eternal radiance.

He Ao calmly withdrew his gaze from the orange glow and looked at the white-robed man in front of him.

The white-robed man's strength should be around D-level, but this armor brought his strength closer to C-level.

This is a divine gift.
