Chapter 489 Winner
Dunjun wakes up.
He felt like he had a horrible, horrible nightmare.
In his dream, he was being stared at by a terrifying skeletal snake and was in great pain.
Then, it seemed to fall into another abyss.
He had forgotten what happened there.
In short, it must have been extremely terrifying and horrible, and it gives me a huge headache whenever I think about it now.
Dun Jun only vaguely remembered the terror that spread over him, as if it had materialized, and the whispering in his ear.
As I recalled it, the whispering sound became even clearer.
"Um?"
He shook his head and looked around, and found that he was still in the hunting ground. The darkness in the sky had dissipated at some point, allowing the scarlet light to shine down.
"I was lucky enough not to be killed by others while I was sleeping..."
Dun Jun murmured, and suddenly heard a low growl of a wild beast.
No... that's more like the sound of suppressed pain from humans.
A dark shadow swooped over.
Dun Jun's pupils shrank and instantly turned amber, stretching upward and downward, turning into the vertical pupils of a snake, allowing him to see the attacker clearly.
It was a disgusting monster.
It has human limbs, well-developed muscles, and is extremely strong. Red vines are wrapped around its body, as if it has grown into one with its flesh and blood.
On top of the sturdy body is a completely disproportionate, old head, which is covered with egg white-like mucus.
For some reason, looking at the other person's old face, Dun Jun actually felt that he looked somewhat familiar.
He remembered that it was a rival he had seen before, whose skill in wielding an axe in one hand was so superb that he was very afraid of it.
But the opponent at that time was only about twenty years old, and he was not a monster!
This moment of distraction gave the monster on the opposite side an opportunity.
It roared, stretched out its right hand, and a vine turned into a spear, piercing Dun Jun's chest.
"ah!"
Dunjun screamed, but he didn't feel any pain in his chest.
He touched his skin and it felt like he was touching a layer of steel.
'Extraordinary ability: Iron skin?!'
An inexplicable message passed through his mind, and Dunjun immediately understood the meaning: "I have become a Beyonder?"
He rushed forward, braving the many red vines that pierced him like spears, and arrived in front of the monster.
Seeing that aging face, Dun Jun confirmed once again that he was his opponent.
"Becoming a monster, becoming a Beyonder... This Abyss game is really problematic."
Dun Jun muttered to himself and stabbed a dagger into the old man's head.
The huge monster fell down, its body still twitching.
“Well done!”
A three-eyed crow flew over at some point, hovering in the air, and spoke in the voice of a middle-aged man: "I am the organizer of the Abyss Game, Dunjun, congratulations on becoming the only winner."
"I... won? There should be another group of people..." Dun Jun murmured in reply.
“No, you are the only human left.” The Three-Eyed Raven emphasized the word “human”. “Besides that, I also want to thank you for letting me win a bet from a beautiful lady. Come with me… If you don’t want to be surrounded and killed, by the way… The mysterious power you brought back from hell is great, but it can’t keep you alive under the siege of nearly a hundred monsters…”
Dun Jun pursed his lips and looked at the location of Enke's body not far away. There was only a pool of black marks left there, which made his heart sink even more.
"Come with me."
The Three-Eyed Raven was flying, with Dun Jun following closely behind.
He discovered that this crow had a special ability. Its detection range seemed to be very large, and it could always bypass the detection range of some monsters.
In addition, it has the ability to become invisible. When it really cannot avoid the monster, it can just walk past the monster with its shield and will not attract attention.
Finally, it brought Dunjun to a convoy.
The steel-assembled behemoth roars with high-pressure steam, and the huge muzzle represents terrifying lethality.
The three-eyed crow landed on the shoulder of a middle-aged gentleman. He opened his arms and gave Dun Jun a hug: "Winner of the competition, young extraordinary person, welcome to join the Upper City! Come, get in the car, we have prepared a welcome banquet for you..."
"This convoy doesn't seem to be here to pick me up."
Dun Jun rolled his eyes and suddenly asked.
He saw the steam chariot and then a number of iron cage freight cars.
"certainly……"
The middle-aged gentleman clapped his hands, and armed teams dispersed, capturing some flesh and blood monsters and throwing them into iron cages.
"You don't think that all the power of Steam City is just burning coal in the core furnace, right? It is also a rare item on the mysterious side... Monsters are the best fuel."
"Oh, you can call me Mr. Sidger."
Xijie said nonchalantly.
"The annual Abyss Game... is to create monsters and replenish fuel?" Dun Jun felt as if he had grasped the truth.
"There are also extraordinary people born, such as you. Well, you are the only one who survived this time. After all, this is the deepest hell..."
Xijie shrugged.
He brought Dunjun to the chariot.
The steel behemoth roared as it cleared a path. Any flesh and blood monster that dared to block the way was directly crushed and turned into a bloody mass of meat.
Dunjun finally arrived at the mysterious upper city.
The air is fresh, the streets are clean, the pedestrians are well-dressed, and their skin is healthy and rosy.
Looking at this scene, he didn't know why his eyes became moist.
"Hehe... Become a member of the Upper City, you will get a place to live, and you will have everything you need, so don't worry. We are here..."
Xijie brought Dunjun to a huge building and said, "Before the banquet, you need to take a good bath and change your clothes... Believe me, many ladies are interested in you... They like strong gladiators! And you are the best in this class."
Dunjun followed the arrangement somewhat woodenly. After taking a shower, he changed into a dress that was soft, smooth, bright and beautiful, but made him feel a little uncomfortable. Then he followed Xijie to a meeting place.
The door opened, and melodious music mixed with laughter and the aroma of food hit us.
"Welcome to heaven, little one."
Xijie gave an exaggerated smile.
Dunjun couldn't move his eyes away.
The first thing he saw was the buffet area, which was piled up like small mountains of steaks, fried chicken, cakes, desserts, and various fruits... as well as spiked glasses filled with fragrant drinks.
"Residents of the lower city can only eat two meals of black mush a day..."
Dunjun didn't know why, but this was the first thing he thought of when he looked at the ladies coming towards him.
