Volume 7: War and Peace in an Abandoned Town Chapter 19: Gods of the Past (Part 2)
'System prompt: Your mission has changed! '
'System Tip: Gods of the Past (Special)'
'The situation has finally evolved to an irreversible point. The blood of madness, the ancient and terrifying cognition has created a unique mark on you. This means that you are the original fear, the first one. Maybe you were once a teacher, an ordinary person, but when you came into contact with this original essence, you only have this identity. The old days were sacred, but now everyone is calling for their destruction. In this bustling and noisy universe, you have been silent for too long. It's time to remind people of the original fear. It's also time to complete the covenant of the past that was concluded before the disaster. '
'System prompt: The gods of the past that you can currently recognize are: the God of Time (Broken Spirit), the Sun God (Rotten Day), the God of Elves (Black Forest Will), and the Demigod of Yomi Hirasaka (Lord of the Underworld)'
'System prompt: Because you killed the God of Time (Broken Spirit), wiped out the God of Elves (Black Forest Will), and wiped out the demigod of Yomi Hirasaka (Lord of the Underworld), the above tasks automatically failed. You automatically accepted the call of the Sun God (Rotten Day), you have arrived in his kingdom of God, and next you must accept his test and truly understand the glory of the past.'
'Mission Instructions: Accept the guidance of blood, inherit the blood of madness, and pass on the power '
'System prompt: You know the power and heritage of the gods of the past, but compared to them who have become corrupt, perhaps you have more and better choices, such as those who are close to you. This may be a choice, or perhaps a redemption. Weak and helpless, you often have no choice. For mortals, the existence of demons and gods is too high, but now you also have such an opportunity. Don't you think it is a very precious opportunity? '
"...give me strength and equipment for free?"
What a pity that I am a traitor. The Holy Light offers better things.
Looking at the number of past gods indicated on it, Li Lin shrugged speechlessly.
Too bad. Really too bad. It's obvious that these so-called gods of the past are all sealed rookies, none of them can fight. If you say that you are extremely powerful, Li Lin might consider it.
But now, they are Noob No. 1 who was killed by himself, Noob No. 2 who was killed by himself twice, Noob No. 3 who was sealed and then eaten alive by Sallys, and the next one is Noob No. 1 on Decay Day, who will be directly killed by the Holy Light Man who descended from the sky as long as the coordinates are determined. Li Lin is now wondering how these people can be so confident to send this task?
Don’t you know that those old gods were killed by themselves?
Maybe they really don’t know. Black Forest was sacrificed, and the others were eaten alive. There is really no news.
It's terrible to be uneducated.
"Then we have to follow the guidance of the blood... But how do we use the blood to guide us? Cut your finger and drip a few drops of blood?"
Let’s take a look at the details here first.
It would be bad if something messy happened and the car suddenly overturned.
He casually threw a trace of imperceptible magic power at the old man's pus-like body, and a pale light gradually lit up on the corpse. Countless maggots and mouthparts were born from the light, and in the blink of an eye, they devoured the old man's disgusting corpse.
Li Lin searched the room and found several records and something similar to scriptures. But the more he flipped through the records, the more embarrassed Li Lin looked. They all recorded praises and eulogies for his god and his kingdom of God. They described in a horrifying way how he tortured those foreigners to death, skinned them and pulled out their tendons. Among those foreigners, there was even a pregnant woman.
“Damn it…”
Li Lin flipped through the human skin book in his hand, his brows becoming more and more furrowed.
The town welcomed not just one group of so-called outsiders, but several groups. Among them were lost hunters, ordinary students, some poor civilians on the move, and some disorganized and defeated armies. But for this town, identity was not important, they were all just outsiders, all sacrifices to please the rotten sun.
This disgusting town even delivered a pregnant woman's baby to please their gods, then crushed it into plasma in front of the poor mother, and then replaced it with the poor woman's body, just to complete a transformation ritual in their records. The woman's anger and curse greatly strengthened the surrounding fog, making it impossible for the villagers to move in the fog. Either a group of people were together, or a single person would be killed, there was no choice.
However, according to records, those outsiders would also be attacked by the resentment surging in this village. At first, it was the remnants of the obsession of the fallen Holy Light soldiers, and then with the arrival of outsiders, the fog of this town became more and more deteriorating.
They began to actively hunt living creatures in the town, dragging these evil god believers out of the rooms one by one and slaughtering them.
Hatred of evil, sadness over their own abilities, anger at not being able to save others, the resentment and anger of these intelligent creatures turned into a black fog more terrifying than the evil god, lingering in the town all day long. And the outside world that seemed to have no problems at the beginning was just a disguise made by these pitiful obsessions to prevent some unexpected intrusions.
But Li Lin came here for this. He came here to end this ugly world and this terrible kingdom of God. This kind of evil god must be killed even if there is no benefit, just for Li Lin's own comfort.
"Well, let's kill all the villagers too."
After taking a look at the smug record of how they ate the couple, Li Lin's heart was filled with a cold anger.
The insects gnawing at the debris on the ground let out sharp chirps and flew wildly around the room, buzzing as they cut and chopped up the human skins and monster decorations. Pale flames gradually swirled and burned all around them , and the dim pale fire spread to the surroundings, soon igniting the entire room into a blazing torch, which was extremely dazzling in the dark fog.
Li Lin casually threw the two human skin books into the pale flames, and watched the curses and malice on them disappear in the dim light. He took a deep breath, and the thick fog around him suddenly gave him a sense of familiarity.
Picking up the shotgun and loading the bullets, Li Lin felt the surging murderous intent and anger gradually rising in his body, and slowly exhaled a breath of white air.
"It's time to drag that damn god out and kill him..."
But the moment he made up his mind, Li Lin's mind roared as if it was hit by a sledgehammer. A rotten and slimy being slowly opened its eyes, staring at the reptile that was determined to kill it from an unknown world.
