Chapter 384 Roasted Chicken Wings, I Love to Eat

However, using Marvel Universe skills in the DC Universe feels a bit out of place.

Du Mu pulled out two golden Desert Eagles, and suddenly a ball of crimson hellfire surged from each of his palms. The flames spread rapidly along the gun barrels, engulfing the entire weapon in the blink of an eye.

As the flames burned across the metal surface, the originally glossy gold gun body quickly transformed into a cold, hard black gold texture, while the edges of the gun body became sharper, giving the overall design a more aggressive and menacing look.

The entire gun was enveloped in leaping flames, radiating intense heat, causing even the surrounding air to distort slightly.

boom!boom!boom!boom!

Du Mu pulled the trigger repeatedly, and several bullets carrying hellfire flew out of the barrel, easily piercing through the steel pillars in the distance. The metal at the muzzle was red-hot and charred, sizzling and emitting white smoke.

After being enhanced by the Hellfire, the output of the two Golden Desert Eagles increased significantly, and the gun's rigidity was also improved. What were originally just ordinary, exquisite-looking guns suddenly became high-level weapons.

"Not bad, not bad."

Du Mu was very satisfied.

As his skills steadily improved, those two golden Desert Eagles were no longer able to keep up with the intensity of the battle.

If it weren't for the fact that he had this gun for quite some time and it didn't have some sentimental value, he would have had the system recycle it and turned it into fresh experience points long ago.

Now that the Hellfire skill is available, the Golden Desert Eagle can be put to good use again.

Du Mu put the two golden Desert Eagles back into his game inventory and his gaze fell on the last reward.

[Equipment: The Broken Spear of Longinus]

[Description: Also known as the Spear of Destiny, it gained immense power from the blood of Jesus. Originally a top-tier holy relic, it later broke into three pieces, reducing its power and curse. It possesses the ability to pierce through all things, has an absolute restraining effect on evil and dark targets, and is immune to dark corruption. When equipped, it will continuously deduct health from the user.]

[Comment: The first user of this item famously risked his life for Jesus.]

Not long ago, Du Mu had already witnessed the power of this weapon; it could easily break through Gabriel's defenses, and it was indeed very powerful.

However, he did not directly touch the Spear of Longinus before; he exerted force entirely by gripping Gabriel's severed arm.

After all, the legendary Spear of Longinus is extremely evil; everyone within a 120-foot radius will submit, and the wielder can control the fate of the world. However, once the Spear of Longinus is lost, the wielder will die instantly.

Once you hold the Spear of Longinus in your hand, you'll probably never be able to put it down for the rest of your life.

Fortunately, the Spear of Longinus was broken into three pieces, which greatly weakened the fatal curse, turning it into a continuous drain on the user's health. There's no need to worry about being forcibly bound to the spear for life.

This side effect was nothing to Du Mu.

Anyway, he has a life-steal ring, so he can recover health while losing it during battle, which doesn't affect his performance at all.

Congratulations, player! You have successfully leveled up!

[Player: Du Mu]

[Level: 28 (28000/102000)]

[Attributes: Strength 115, Agility 75, Constitution 75, Spirit 75]

[Available free attribute points: 15]

Du Mu looked at the fifteen free attribute points on the panel, but didn't rush to allocate them.

The reward for this mission also includes Gabriel's angel wings. Even the Millennium Salted Fish could boost his stats before, so these angel wings can't be too bad, right?

We can add more later after he bakes it and tests the results.

"It has to be a high-difficulty mission; the rewards are indeed generous."

Du Mu couldn't help but smack his lips and sigh.

Of course, high returns also come with high risks.

If it weren't for the expired spinach can as a backup, he might not have been able to defeat Gabriel, who was wielding the Spear of Longinus, not to mention that there was also the Son of Satan standing by.

Shortly after Mammon was taken offline, the effects of the expired spinach cans disappeared, and the feeling of being all-powerful was gone.

Du Mu was a little reluctant to part with it; the exhilarating feeling of having a cheat code was truly intoxicating.

At that moment, the system panel flashed, and the task progress was updated.

[Goal: To become a superhero, the nemesis of evil, and to resolve three major crises (2/3)]

After thwarting Gabriel and Mammon's conspiracy, the progress has moved forward another step. Only one last major crisis remains to complete the dungeon quest. "Finally, they're gone."

Constantine breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Mammon detach from Angela's body.

He turned to Du Mu and gave him a thumbs up: "Buddy, your acting was really good. You pretended to kill me to summon Satan, and you scared the son of Satan away."

Du Mu looked bewildered: "Huh? I didn't act?"

Constantine:

'

'

The two did not linger at the scene. They took the unconscious Angela and left the ruins, returning to Constantine's rented house.

When I opened the door, I found that someone was already waiting inside.

It was Constantine's sidekick, Chase Chandler. He followed Constantine around to learn about exorcism and mostly acted as a driver, taking Constantine around.

When Du Mu was bored on the main server, he watched a lot of other types of movies. When he saw Chas's face, he really wanted to ask if the car Chas was a yellow Chevrolet Camaro that could transform.

Before the two could even speak, Chas immediately confessed that he was an angel, sent by his superiors to stay by Constantine's side to help him investigate the demons' descent to earth and to lend a hand when necessary.

Constantine was stunned on the spot.

So he'd been hiding a god-like teammate all along without even realizing it. If he'd known, why would he have bothered asking friends for help? He should have just approached Chase, this angel.

Chas looked at Du Mu and smiled, "But with you here, I don't need to take action. Thank you for preventing the Archangel from going all the way down the wrong path and for stopping the Son of Satan from wreaking havoc on the world. Now that my mission is complete, I'll head back first."

As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes lit up with golden light, a pair of pure white wings unfurled behind him, and he was about to soar into the sky with a light touch of his toes.

Just as he was flying into the air, his ankle suddenly tightened, and he was forcibly pulled back to the ground.

Chase: (—·?) 3

Chas looked bewildered: "W-what's wrong?"

"You think you can just leave already?"

Du Mu narrowed his eyes: "Gabriel caused such a huge destruction in the human world, almost turning it into hell. I cleaned up such a mess for your Heaven. You can't let me work for nothing. You have to give me some reward for my hard work."

Chas was stunned after hearing this.

In all his years as an angel, he had never seen a human actively seeking favors from angels.

Chas stammered, "But I didn't receive that instruction."

Du Mu was displeased upon hearing this: "I'm upholding the reputation of your Heaven. If word gets out that a dignified archangel colluded with the son of Satan to destroy humanity, what will the believers in God think? What will humanity think?"

"this..

Chas was speechless. Du Mu did have some merit in what he said, and he hesitated for a few seconds before nodding.

"Okay, I'll ask for instructions."

As he spoke, he looked up, as if communicating with some kind of being.

In just a few seconds, he suddenly produced a nail in his hand and handed it to Du Mu.

"This is the Holy Nail, which will help you fight against all evil forces. Consider it your reward."

[Item: Holy Nail (One of the nails used in the crucifixion of Jesus. Due to being stained with the blood of the Son of God, it gained immense power and can forcibly control the target for a period of time. The effect ignores all rules, and the target cannot take any action during its duration. It will automatically dissipate after use.)]

This is great stuff!

Du Mu's eyes lit up immediately.

I never expected Heaven to be so generous, directly gifting such a coercive control artifact, which, like the Spear of Longinus, is a sacred relic created by Jesus.

It's absurd, really. Things that were supposed to harm Jesus ended up becoming top-tier relics, and even the cross that crucified him became an iconic logo. It's kind of hellish.

Unfortunately, it's a one-time consumable, unlike the Spear of Longinus which can be used repeatedly.

Chas said helplessly, "Is that alright now?"

Du Mu shook his head decisively: "That's not enough. This is my reward for defeating Gabriel. I haven't received the reward for defeating the Son of Satan yet."

Chase's lips twitched.

Can these be calculated separately?

He had no choice but to look up at the sky again and continue to ask his superiors for instructions.

Before long, a soft white light suddenly shone from the ceiling above.

A holy light-filled rift suddenly appeared in the sky, and a beam of light descended from it, ignoring the brick and stone walls and landing directly on Du Mu.

A warm, comforting energy seeped into the body through the skin, so soothing that it made one squint their eyes.

[Congratulations to the player for unlocking the achievement: Blessed by Heaven (Obtaining this title permanently increases the player's Light resistance by 10%, Dark resistance by 10%, and slightly increases Luck).]

I actually unlocked a title.

This title has a pretty good effect; it not only increases resistance to both light and dark attributes, but it can even increase luck.

The more luck you have, the better; who doesn't want to be lucky in games?

Overjoyed at the series of benefits, Du Mu continued shouting towards the gap in the holy light, "By the way, I sustained quite a few injuries in the battle just now, possibly leaving some irreparable internal wounds. Shouldn't I also pay for the medicine and such..."

99

Before he could finish speaking, the gap closed instantly.

Chas said awkwardly, "The line is down, we can't get in touch with them."

Du Mu secretly regretted it, but on the surface he waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's alright, I'm not a greedy person, suffering a little loss is nothing."

Chas: "

If you're not greedy, you probably wish you could empty out heaven.

"Now that I've given you the reward, I should go back and report."

Chase didn't want to stay a second longer, so he flapped his wings and prepared to take off.

The next moment, his legs were suddenly grabbed.

Chase: ε (———) 63

He looked down and saw Constantine clinging to his lap, shouting, "Don't go! Why does he get a reward but I don't? It's not fair! I've done my part for Heaven, I've shed my blood for Heaven! Even if I haven't done anything meritorious, I've still put in the effort!"

He burst into a wail, frantically recounting all the hardships he had endured over the years; anyone who didn't know better would have thought that Heaven owed him money and he was demanding his unpaid wages.

Chas's head was throbbing from his nagging. He couldn't take it anymore and raised his hand, conjuring a dazzling ball of holy light, which he aimed at Constantine.

Constantine's voice stopped abruptly, his eyes instantly clearing: "We're all civilized people, let's talk this out, why resort to violence?"

Chas ignored him, flicked his finger, and the holy light fell directly on Constantine's chest.

Constantine was prepared to be blasted away, but he didn't feel any pain. Instead, a warm current flowed from his chest throughout his body.

Immediately afterwards, large patches of black, oil-like stains seeped from his pores, sticking to his clothes and emitting a pungent stench.

After all the black stains were expelled from his body, Constantine let out a long breath, feeling light and refreshed. The suffocation in his chest that had lasted for years was gone, and even his breathing became much easier.

Chas withdrew his hand and explained, "Your lung cancer has been cured, and you have returned to a healthy state."

Constantine was overjoyed: "Really? Does that mean I can smoke for decades more?"

Chas: "

95

He really wanted to stuff those black stains back into Constantine's lungs.

Chase said no more, kicked Constantine aside, flapped his wings and soared into the sky, flying incredibly fast, as if afraid that if he was a step too slow, these two would catch him and extort money from him again.

Du Mu watched Chas's hasty retreat and looked at Constantine with disdain: "You're really annoying, even the angels dislike you."

"Bullshit, they're clearly looking down on you."

Constantine disagreed.

Before meeting Du Mu, he thought he had no bottom line and often acted inhumanely. But after meeting Du Mu, he realized that there are always people more capable than him.

He used to be the one who tricked his friends, but now he's the one being tricked by Du Mu several times.

Those who cheat others will eventually be cheated themselves.

Constantine secretly decided that it would be better to stay away from this guy in the future. Who knows, he might really be tricked to death by Du Mu one day, and then his old friends would probably set off firecrackers to celebrate.

The two bickered for a long time, and finally said something harsh: they would never see each other again, and if there was nothing wrong, they should never meet. After saying that, they went their separate ways.

On the lawn in the backyard of Wayne Manor, Gotham.

"I love grilled chicken wings!"

Du Mu hummed a little tune as he turned the meat skewers on the grill, the oil dripping onto the charcoal and sizzling, filling the yard with a fragrant aroma.

Barry, squatting by the grill, stared intently at the skewers of meat, his saliva practically dripping onto the charcoal.

He wiped the drool from his mouth and asked impatiently, "Du Mu, can we eat now?"

"Eat up, eat up."

Du Mu picked up a handful of grilled meat skewers and handed them to Barry. Barry quickly took them with both hands, and without even blowing on them, he stuffed them into his mouth. They were so hot that he kept inhaling but couldn't bear to spit them out.

"Delicious! So delicious!"

Barry chewed quickly, praising indistinctly.

"Diana, this is yours."

Du Mu then grabbed a handful of roasted meat pieces and handed them to Diana, who was sitting next to him drinking juice.

"Thanks."

Diana politely accepted it, took a small bite, and her eyes lit up slightly: "It's really good, but the texture of this meat is a bit special, unlike the meat of common livestock on Earth."

Du Mu chuckled and said, "You have a good eye. These are extraterrestrial beings, quite different from the creatures on Earth."

No wonder.

Diana nodded knowingly and began to savor the food slowly.

Du Mu turned the grill twice, then saw Bruce standing in the shadows not far away. He asked in confusion, "Bateman, what's wrong? You haven't said a word since the beginning. Is something on your mind?"

Bruce: AO—OΛ

I just got back from catching criminals and you guys are having a barbecue party in my house, what do you say?
