Chapter 148 His Name is Puritan
In the dark red underground city, there are several huge hands made of flesh, blood and bones. These hands are like pilgrims, guarding the skeletal figure in the center.
There were five black balls floating around the skeletal figure, but the edges of the black balls were blood red, as if they were decorated with bright red blood.
And around them, there were rows and rows of pale people kneeling. These humans were pale and colorless, extremely skinny, and there was not a single hair on their bodies.
At this moment, blood-red blood lines were floating on the bodies of these humans, and then these blood lines merged into the black ball, increasing its energy.
The bodies of these humans whose blood was absorbed gradually broke apart and collapsed, but there was only calmness and relief on their faces, as if they had been waiting for this moment.
Just then, a black-haired figure with lavender skin, bloodshot eyes, and wearing a blue short-sleeved suit suddenly rushed in.
Seeing the sacrificial ceremony in front of him that seemed to summon an evil god, Xia Yu's face changed and he looked a little annoyed.
After all, it's too late. Even after making so many preparations, can't we stop the other party from returning?
"You are very welcome. He has been waiting for this for a long time." The moment he saw the visitor, a pale man who was already beginning to break, welcomed him expressionlessly.
“He said that you are the same as Him. You both came into this world to respond to people’s prayers.” Another pale man whose injuries were not as serious continued with his hands in a praying gesture.
Hearing this, Xia Yu clenched the weapon in his hand. Only he knew that he was not responding to the prayer, but traveling through time.
"However, you responded to life and He responded to death, which means that you and He cannot coexist!"
This is true. He indeed cannot coexist with Him. No matter what the reason for his coming to this world, he cannot coexist with Him.
After all, the other party came to this world to destroy it. If this place is destroyed, where should he go? He can't leave. Besides, he can't leave others behind and leave alone.
"So, I'm sorry, although you helped Him return to the world, He will completely wipe out all the meaning of your existence in the world."
After the pale man in a praying pose said this last sentence, the voices of other pale men suddenly rang out from all around.
"Life is a curse, existence is torture."
"All things pass away and return to nothingness."
"I give my heart, my flesh, and my blood!"
"May we never be reborn in this world!"
Low but dense whispers echoed around the altar, and the pale people who were praying all knelt on the ground with their hands clasped together and placed on their foreheads.
Then, a large amount of black and red blood lines suddenly emerged from their broken bodies. The blood lines gathered and merged into the black ball in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, those human bodies gradually collapsed and melted on the spot, leaving no trace.
After the five black balls absorbed all the blood, they suddenly rose into the air and merged as if guided, and finally all of it was infused into the skeletal figure's head.
All this happened in just a few seconds. When the last bit of energy was absorbed, the surging energy exploded instantly. The bones of the skeletal figure turned from white to red. A blood-red shock wave suddenly exploded, and the bones of the figure's body shattered piece by piece, revealing the solid inside.
A figure wearing a long robe and coat, with black and red blood all over his body, appeared. His head seemed to be made up of countless twisted hard horns, and in his hands he held a blood-red soul with countless human faces.
"Ahhh, you're back, our savior. Only you can help us end the painful cycle of hurting each other!"
"Let us never be born into this world again, and let our souls return to nothingness!"
On that mass of fused broken souls, everyone's face was shedding tears of excitement, and they were shouting from the bottom of their souls.
The next moment.
Bang——!
He squeezed lightly, and the blood-red soul exploded instantly, and the soul inside was annihilated. But before it completely dissipated, many voices of thanks were heard.
"Ahhhhh! Thank you! Thank you!"
Faced with this figure that seemed to have boundless pressure, Xia Yu gritted his teeth and did not retreat. Since he would have to face it sooner or later, he might as well adapt to the pressure from the other party now.
But this is not the moment for the final battle. Not only is the combat effectiveness insufficient, but even the weapons are not the ultimate weapons for the final battle.
The ultimate weapon can tear apart space and attack the enemy through space cracks.
As for why he didn't turn around and run now, it was because he knew that now was not the time to escape, and he was waiting for the right time to escape.
At this moment when the two sides were confronting each other, three mercury robots suddenly flowed out from the pipe, and then condensed into a shape, surrounding Him who was emitting black and red blood.
"It has been visually confirmed that the zombies are confronting the entity called Purity. Mercury No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 have arrived for support."
A pale yellow light curtain suddenly unfolded, and a girl with gray-white shoulder-length hair and headphones suddenly appeared in the light curtain and spoke to the scene.
This is an artificial intelligence named Naike. She manages the operation of the entire underground city and connects every area of the dungeon.
"With the combat power of the zombies and the assistance of the Mercury Troops, the probability of destroying the enemy is 100%."
Hearing this, Xia Yu really wanted to say, your artificial idiot analysis is wrong, the opponent can kill the Mercury Army , including me now!
But now he is a zombie, and a zombie that can't speak, so he can only retreat silently behind the Mercury Army to prevent himself from being affected.
The next moment, three blood-red claws suddenly emerged from the void. They aimed at the three mercury robots and then grabbed them fiercely.
Bang, bang, bang——!
With three crisp sounds, the mercury robot, made of liquid metal and completely ignoring physical attacks, exploded directly and collapsed on the spot.
The thin stream of liquid metal flowed into the ground without causing a ripple.
After dealing with the mercury robot, Purui continued to float in the air, showing no intention of taking action or speaking.
"Updated advice, you cannot defeat the enemy, escaping from the entity is the only viable option."
After the mercury robot exploded, the pale yellow light curtain unfolded again, and Naike's calm voice was heard.
"The magic analyzer scan is complete. Pucui is surrounded by a layer of stable ground. Any attempt to harm him will be ineffective."
"Also, although Ximi doesn't want you to worry about additional problems, I feel it is my duty to inform you of our current situation."
"I have detected a large number of C-04 creatures moving from deep underground towards our location. We must prioritize dealing with the crisis at hand, and it will be difficult for us to continue to provide you with support in the short term."
After hearing Naike's report on the light curtain, although Xia Yu could not see what was happening on the other side, he could imagine the danger there.
He had made so many preparations, but the result didn't change much?
At this moment, the light screen suddenly flashed, and a girl with double horns, light blue skin and dark blue hair suddenly appeared.
"Let us talk, you stinky robot!" The girl, wearing a chef's hat, said sternly, then she smiled and looked at Xia Yu in the field.
"Apprentice, there's no need to worry about us. Do you know why? Because we are very strong."
"Every time Ximi says not to worry, it means the problem is big, but I think we can still get through it." The light curtain turned, and another girl with double horns on her head, but normal skin color and orange hair appeared.
"Hey, Ju'er, don't interrupt me." The light screen turned, and Ximi appeared again, but this time her face was serious and she spoke seriously.
"Apprentice, listen to me. You have to worry about your own safety first. It's normal that you can't defeat that monster. It's okay to run away..."
Before Ximi could finish his words, a blood-red claw touched the light curtain. In an instant, the light curtain turned blood-red and the message was interrupted.
Pu Cui, who was left aside, seemed to react only now, or perhaps he wanted to accumulate strength, so he let go of everything that happened before.
But no matter what, Pu Cui has taken action now.
The black and red blood energy suddenly surged, the entire area shook, and countless blood-red and deformed claws burst out from the ground.
A mountain of flesh made of blood and flesh tissue also broke through the wall. On the mountain were arms made up of deformed organs, and Purui was floating in the center of the mountain, guiding it.
Those arms seemed to be limbs extending from Him, twisting and grabbing towards Xia Yu, but Xia Yu had been waiting for this moment. He swung his halberd and used the force to escape outside the underground city. At the same time, the halberd sprayed endless flames to block Pu Cui's advance.
However, this raging flame that could burn most monsters could not stop Purui's steps at all.
The huge mountain of flesh devoured everything around it and produced new flesh and blood, which in turn formed new arms. Everything seemed to be developing in a bad direction.
However, Xia Yu, who had experienced many battles, was able to remain open-minded about this situation. After all, the opponent was so huge that his speed was definitely not as fast as his.
This is indeed the case. The mountain of flesh could not catch up with the blue figure in front.
Pu Cui didn't seem to be completely serious. He was simply using his flesh and blood to devour everything around him, while chasing Xia Yu at the same time.
After the chase and escape, Xia Yu quickly got away from Pu Cui, but the next moment, a deep yellow beam of light suddenly covered Xia Yu's body, and at the same time a slightly noisy sound suddenly came.
"Hey hey hey! The emergency escape plane has arrived, and the teleportation beam is launched!"
"It's normal to have a grayish-white runny nose during the transmission process. It's a harmless side effect of the old transmission ray that dissolves the brain."
Xia Yu: “…”
If he wasn't already a zombie and couldn't speak, he would definitely curse the guy who designed the teleportation ray, saying, "You are really something." A teleportation ray that dissolves the brain is no longer a teleportation ray, it's an energy weapon.
"Please hold the handrails tightly and stand within the yellow lines."
The next moment, the deep yellow light suddenly intensified and a pulling force came. Xia Yu's eyes blurred and the scene in front of him had changed.
