Chapter 3: The Coming Tribulation (3)
The stench of rancid stench poured into the house from outside, and it seemed as if something was slowly moving around outside.
Jiang Yuan only felt that the hairs on his body stood up, although he didn't know what was outside the door, but he knew that he was definitely not a good type.
The terrifying little girl who appeared before, Jiang Yuan still hasn't figured out whether she left by herself or was killed by herself inexplicably. It can be said that Jiang Yuan has no experience in dealing with this kind of demon until now.
The torrential rain continued to fall, and the occasional thunderclap made the roof thatch rattle.
Time passed, and the muffled wheezing and moving sounds seemed to be gone, and only the sound of rain was left outside.
"Are you gone?"
Jiang Yuan wasn't sure, he walked lightly behind the door and looked out through the crack in the door.
It was so dark outside that it was impossible to see, and even the outline of the house could not be seen at night.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky.
The heavens and the earth lit up in an instant, and Jiang Yuan finally saw it!
The person outside the door is the neighbor Uncle Li!
And at this moment, he was squatting outside the door, looking at Jiang Yuan inside the door through the crack in the door!
Uncle Li's face was a strange purple-black, the pupils of his eyes had turned white, and the pupils of his other eye were staring at Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan could see his mouth open suddenly, and there were two rows of fine fangs inside, which were mixed with fragments of flesh and blood.
The lightning vanished, and the muffled thunder followed.
Jiang Yuan was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated, not daring to take another half step closer to the door.
"Is that person still Uncle Li? ...... he looks like that?"
When Jiang Yuan was terrified, he only heard a roar from outside the door, followed by the door suddenly falling apart.
A black shadow leaped in swiftly from outside the door and slammed Jiang Yuan to the ground.
The rancid breath kept penetrating Jiang Yuan's nostrils.
At the same time as he threw down Jiang Yuan, Uncle Li had already opened his mouth full of fangs and bit down sharply on Jiang Yuan's shoulder.
"Ah——!h
The severe pain made Jiang Yuan can't help but scream.
Suddenly, a ball of fire suddenly burst out on Jiang Yuan's shoulder.
The bright light of the fire lit up the room, and Jiang Yuan saw that Uncle Li's face was ignited by the flames, and those flames continued to scorch the flesh and skin on his face.
Uncle Li raised his head and screamed, his voice hoarse and low, not like a human voice at all.
Jiang Yuan gritted his teeth and looked hideous, he hurriedly seized the opportunity, pinched Uncle Li's neck with his left hand and pressed Uncle Li to the ground, and his right hand desperately punched Uncle Li's face:
"Die, die, die!"
"You monster!
Punch after punch, each punch, Jiang Yuan used all his strength to beckon towards Uncle Li.
Today's Jiang Yuan's strength is surprisingly great, and just a few punches have already smashed Uncle Li's head to pieces.
Just when Jiang Yuan thought that he had solved Uncle Li, he found that even without a head, Uncle Li's body and limbs were still waving and struggling.
At this moment, Jiang Yuan was completely out of line. If a living person has no head, how can it move like this? In the face of such a monster, how can it be completely killed?
The flames were still beating on Jiang Yuan's shoulders, and Jiang Yuan realized that it was his clothes that were ignited.
He hurriedly slapped the flames on his shoulder, but it made him discover something even stranger—the blood from the wound on his shoulder was as red and shiny as magma.
And those flames are also caused by their own blood.
A few drops of blood fell on Uncle Li's headless corpse, causing a raging flame in an instant, as if Uncle Li's strange body was the best fuel.
Only a "crackling" sound was heard, and Uncle Li's body was quickly burned into a pile of ashes in the flames. As the flames gradually extinguished, only wisps of green smoke slowly rose.
"It's ...... My blood?"
Jiang Yuan was shocked, and those magma-like blood were still slowly flowing out of the wound on his shoulder.
Every time the weird blood drips, it causes a small ball of flame.
However, what was strange was that even though these flames ignited the clothes near Jiang Yuan's wounds, they didn't seem to cause burns to Jiang Yuan.
If Jiang Yuan hadn't seen those flames burn his clothes into ashes, he wouldn't have felt the existence of the flames at all.
"No! In my memory, the blood has always been normal, it has never been like this! So when did my body start to change? strange blood, sudden heat, flames from my nostrils, strength ...... It all started after that horrible little girl got inside me!"
Jiang Yuan finally grasped the source of all this, but what the hell is going on?
At this time, I saw that among the ashes burned by Uncle Li's corpse, a strange black smoke suddenly rose.
The black smoke writhed in mid-air like a black snake. I don't know why, while seeing this black smoke, Jiang Yuan's heart couldn't help but give birth to a longing.
The longing is like ...... The hungry man suddenly saw a delicious feast.
He couldn't help but reach out and grab at the strange black smoke.
Just as he had just come into contact with the black smoke, he saw that the black smoke seemed to be attracted, and it suddenly burrowed into Jiang Yuan's skin, and then disappeared.
Jiang Yuan was horrified in his heart, but then the familiar heat came from his body again.
"This is the case...... It's the same as when that horrible little girl came into me!"
He hurriedly stabilized his mind, felt the source of the heat, and decided to find out.
As he calmed down, he suddenly "saw" inside his body, and there was a hideous figure there.
"It's ...... This is the boss of the game - Broken Monarch!"
Jiang Yuan instantly recognized the figure, he was playing a game before he crossed into this world, and this figure, Broken Death Junyu, was the ultimate boss of that game.
The black qi that entered Jiang Yuan's body was slowly swallowed by the hideous figure, and the figure suddenly became brighter.
"I understand! All the changes in my body are changing towards the state of Broken Monarch!"
The Broken Monarch is the game's final boss, and his power lies in his four forms: the form of fire, the form of darkness, the form of dragon, and the form of god.
Each of these four forms is stronger than the other, especially when it comes to the last god form, which can be said to be already a god-like existence in the game.
And the changes in Jiang Yuan's body now are very similar to the first flame form.
"Do you mean...... I possess the ability to break the Death Monarch, and I am changing towards his flame form, and the more I absorb this black qi, the more I will ...... The stronger?"
"This black gas...... It's called 'oni'. It seems to have been obtained after destroying these strange demons...... In this way, that terrifying little girl was also made of this kind of ghostly energy, so it was absorbed as soon as it entered my body. ”
After thinking about all this, Jiang Yuan finally became excited.
In this strange and cruel world, he finally saw a glimmer of hope.
The pain in his shoulder had disappeared unconsciously, and when Jiang Yuan wiped away the remaining magma-like blood with his hand, he found that the skin on his shoulder was intact, and the wound had recovered in such a short time.
"The skin and muscles recover so fast! I wonder if the internal organs are injured or fatal...... Forget it, don't try it lightly unless you have to. ”
The night wind kept pouring in from the gate that had been broken by Uncle Li.
The wet and cold rain splashed on Jiang Yuan's body with the wind, which also made Jiang Yuan calm down from the excitement.
Looking at the broken gate, Jiang Yuan suddenly thought of a terrifying thing:
"So, what is it exactly...... Let Uncle Li scream first, and then turn into this appearance of no one or ghost?"
Is that kind of thing something that Jiang Yuan can compete with? Jiang Yuan didn't know.
Although he wanted to go out and hunt demons to nourish the flame form, he finally gave up on this plan.
He knew too little about the terrifying demons on the other side, and he could even say that he didn't know anything.
If you act rashly, then it will definitely not end well.
The screams continued to echo in the sky above Taiping Town, and a fire suddenly rose in the southeast, and I don't know which one was on fire.
Although there are always some legends of demons in the town on weekdays, it is the first time that such a large-scale head-on encounter with demons has occurred.
Looking at the deep rainy night outside the broken door, Jiang Yuan knew that this night would be incomparably long......
