Chapter 522: 11.48 First Green Star Punishment World: 'Hell' (14)
Shi Lou, Lu Ke, and Lu Shi decided to leave the game by using a return stone they had prepared in case of emergency. Without them knowing Hei Anjing didn't leave the place directly but watched what they would do after he left. He was flying in the sky like an immortal within his hand with his head lowered is the unfrozen Fallen Angel, Fa Yue. They were both watching from the sky.
Fa Yue asked, "They left just like that, my queen, is it alright?"
"Yes. If they've stayed I would have to kill that kill. After all, in the Punishment Game Mode only one player or team can win in the end." said Hei Anjing.
He doesn't have the amiable aura from before like when he is talking to that young boy Lu Shi. This is the usual him. He treats everyone that wasn't close to him with that usual indifference.
As expected when he heard Hei Anjing say those words the Fallen Angel Fa Yue had shown an evil smile giving a sardonic vibe.
Fa Yue, the Fallen Angel said, "My queen is indeed smart. That's right in this world of punishment only one player or a team can survive, else why would there be abundant rewards for it? Only the strongest had the right to become rich and to live."
Hei Anjing looked down and stared at Fa Yue coldly. His apathetic expression made the latter terrified. He immediately shut up and lowered his head.
With a trembling voice, the Fallen Angel calls, "M-M-My Q-Queen..."
"Yang, which direction did you say was the coldness?" asked Hei Anjing.
[10 o'clock South, master.]
"Good~" Hei Anjing adjusted his body and made a gesture of throwing a ball just so that the ball in his hands happened to be the living Fallen Angel, Fa Yue, in his hands.
Fa Yue started to panic, he knew how powerful this beautiful young man is and how cold he is to the others. He treats strangers as if they don't exist. He had seen how he treated those who are close to him like Manager Yang. Players like Han Ya and An Yuan were treated a bit friendly but one could see that he had no trust in them.
The only exception to this rule is children, he is kind and friendly towards children and the gentleness he saw when he was interacting with that 10-year-old boy is a kindness and patience a mother would have. Moreover, he is only close to that infamous player in Abyssal World who is known as Abyss.
Besides Abyss, Hei Anjing's coldness would disappear; instead it would be replaced with a pampering, patient, and eyes full of love. When Fa Yue saw that recorded stream he knew that this is how Hei Anjing treats his loved ones. He felt bitter and sad, he wanted to replace that man who owns Hei Anjing's heart.
Only then did he realize that he had indeed fallen in love at first sight.
Fa Yue, "W-Wait... Wait! Those stamps I will give to you. Me acting like a pervert is just an instinct I can stop myself I promise."
Hei Anjing was of course ignoring the man's words. He had never listened to the nonsense of the others.
"I. Don't. Care," said Hei Anjing with an Icy tone.
He was about to be thrown away from the far when suddenly the hand that held him had loosened for some unknown reason. Without noticing anything Fa Yue had fallen from the sky to the land.
Hei Anjing heard a familiar voice entering his mind. He wanted to block the divine sense like energy when System Yang had suddenly spoken.
&123;Crzz... P-Player... Hei... Can you... Crzz~ h-hear... me...? Crzz~&125;
"Hm~ Is this... Divine sense? Not similar but it is not. Anyway do not enter my thoughts." said Hei Anjing as he was about to forcefully reflect the sudden mind connection for communication in the head.
[Master, don't that Player Han using a prop to reach out to you. Please don't reject it. Please land. The air is too breezy above.]
Hei Anjing did as he was told and landed on the ground. He had fallen directly on the top of the flattened Fa Yue and the latter couldn't help but groan in pain and weight.
Groan~ Urk!
"I can hear you, Xiao Han," replied Hei Anjing.
---
Meanwhile back to the layer of the Wrongful Death, Han Ya had first contacted Hei Anjing. He wanted to know his location first and learn where he was. He knew their conversation would be shorter than when he talks to An Yuan. He wanted to extend the duration he could speak with his beloved.
A few minutes before he called Hei Anjing.
Uncle Sid and the rest were surprised when Han Ya plans to call Hei Anjing first instead of An Yuan who is supposedly his beloved.
Sol asked, "You're not gonna call your An Yuan first?"
"Eh? Why?" asked Lune.
Only the two women could understand what Han Ya was planning and Aunt Carmel was smiling because she understood his reason.
Aunt Carmel said, "Not bad child~"
Uncle Sid who somehow understood and smiled like an old uncle pairing with his wife, "Did you want to save some call time and wanted to have a short call with your other teammate and use the rest of your time to talk to An Yuan."
"Yes. Don't be noisy. Player Hei is a bit... Weird so..." said Han Ya.
Uncle Sid said, "No worries. We've already met lots of eccentric players like him. We wouldn't be offended even if he said something weird."
Then under the urging of the people around him he used the first conch to call Hei Anjing. Of course, he wrote Hei Anjing's name on the shell.
Ring. Ring. Ring.
(CLICKED! Connection made. Please speak. Now.)
Han Ya spoke, "Player Hei, can you hear me now?"
&123;Crzz~... Crzz~... I can... Hear you crzz... X-Xiao Han...&125;
"Can I ask where are you right now? I'm in Eight Layer. Hell of Wrongful Death."
&123;I woke... Crzz~ up in... T-Tenth layer. Hell of...crzz~ Ice... Crzz~ Ah~ my... Queen~&125;
Another weird voice was mixed up with the call. It seems someone on the opposite side had interfered with their connection and entered the call as well.
Han Ya frowned for a bit when he heard that strange voice mixed with Hei Anjing's cold tone.
&123;F-Fucking...crzz~ pervert! Bang! Bam! Urk~ Tsk! Ignore the... Crzz~ annoying trash. Did you wake up crzz... in the 8th layer? Don't go down... further. Crzz~ My manager... Says... Crzz~ Xiao An... Is in the... Fifth layer... Crzz... Go find... Him. I'm going to... Crzz~ find my... Husband... I'll wait in... The last layer. No need... Crzz~ to complete... Crzz~ the other... Trials... Crzz... Meet at the...crzz~ Eighteenth... Layer... Crzzz~ ah~ queen~... S-Step on me... More~ crzz... Die... You lunatic... Fallen Angel!...Thud!&125;
Toot. Toot. Toot.
(Call ended on the other side. You had used up to 2 minutes of call duration. This conch can still be used for a 3 minutes call duration.)
Everyone was flabbergasted with what they'd heard. Unlike Hei Anjing's connections which are done directly by his thoughts, Han Ya's can be said to be a loudspeaker with the voice coming from the shell.
Lune spoke, "Someone in here can interfere with communication through thoughts. Someone weird was mixed in Player Hei's side just now."
"But... It sounds like the extra character was beaten up to death by Player Hei in the end. Moreover, he called the other a Fallen Angel. Did you have an inhuman companion or something?" asked Sol.
Even the silent Meiling finally speaks out of the weirdness of the call.
"He... He said that he would be looking for his husband... But Isn't Player Hei... a man?" asked Meiling.
"..."
Aunt Carmel was the one who decided to teach the little girl about the truth of society. The two ladies went to the corner and Aunt Carmel told him about the love between two men.
On the other hand, Uncle Sid looks a bit worried for Hei Anjing. The rumors of how beautiful yet cruel the Hell of Ice is were well-known even in Abyssal City.
"You should call him again. Tell him that he couldn't stay in the Icy Hell for too long. The temperature in that place is a hundred times colder than Antarctica." said Uncle Sid.
But unexpectedly, Han Ya shook his head and said, "He is okay. Ice did not affect him. The bloodline he had awakened is called Ice Elves."
"Fuck! Isn't that a Royal Grade Bloodline!? He really awakened that with an ordinary Bloodline Stone. If he had been given with at least a mid-grade or even a high-grade bloodline stone, wouldn't he have awakened a Divine Grade bloodline instead!" exclaimed Sol.
Lune spoke, "I've always believed that talents differ from another person but... This is the first player who possesses such a monstrous talent among the players. He must be one of a kind."
"No! There is a predecessor. This player had awakened a Mythical Dragon's bloodline with an ordinary Bloodline crystal-like his. At the current level, this player is now considered the strongest player in the Abyssal realm. They knew him as Abyss." said Uncle Sid.
Sol said, "Does this mean his strength could rival that of Abyss? But isn't he a newcomer?"
"Ah~ That's my idol~ I've always wanted to see Sir Abyss face to face and get a hug once." Said Lune.
Han Ya glanced at Lune with a pitiful gaze. Of course, everyone noticed it, especially Lune himself.
Lune asked, "Eh~ did I say something wrong just now?"
"No. Your dream to see your idol face to face is possible. But getting a hug is dangerous." said Han Ya.
Confused Lun asked, "What do you mean?"
"If you hug Abyss, Player Hei would definitely kill you."
"Why?" asked the twins.
Han Ya answered, "Because Player Abyss is Player Hei's husband. He is in this punishment world with us. Moreover, he is also a wealthy patron that supports his wife online. The IAmTheEvilGod account in the streaming platform is his as well."
Everyone was stunned and rendered speechless.
"..."
".!!!."
"WHAT DID YOU SAY!?"
Han Ya ignored their shocked expressions and started making his preparations. He passed a large amount of gold coins taken from their platform funds and passed it to Uncle Sid.
"Use it to upgrade skills," said Han Ya.
Uncle Sid looked at the more than 10,000 gold coins in his hands and looked at Han Ya with disbelief.
"Isn't this your group's fund? Is it really okay?" asked Uncle Sid.
Han Ya replied, "It should be okay. Those gold coins were allowances Player Hei gives to us as his members. His personal gold coins are on him and would leave few in our group platform to be used in an emergency like this case. There used to be 100k gold coins from both him and Player Abyss but we used it up on those useless binding props that aren't even useful in this game mode."
Aunt Carmel and Meiling who just rejoined the group saw everyone looking at Han Ya with a dazed expression on their faces.
"What's with 100k gold coins?" asked Aunt Carmel.
Her husband, Uncle Sid, coughed and passed the gold coins to his wife to budget.
"Upgrade your skills, especially the Domain of blessings. As for the rest, buy the children some defensive clothes or props. Complete the preparation in an hour and we will all cross the stone bridge together."
"Okay!"
The preparations were done after an hour. They had bought a few new defensive props and clothing to increase their protection when fighting the malevolent red ghosts. Aunt Carmel even brought out the personal-made Holy powder which she had sprinkled on their clothes.
Seeing the bottle of gold dust in aunt Carmel's hands, Han Ya watches as he sprinkles it on everyone's clothes among them only his weren't baptized by the holy powder. He was at the moment backing away from such a dangerous thing. But even before he could escape the twin had grabbed his arms from behind preventing him from leaving.
He could have struggled violently but the twins might get hurt who he didn't dare use his full strength as he tries to escape.
Sol said, "Where are you going, Ya?~"
"L-Let... Let go... I don't need that stupid powder!" said the panicking Han Ya.
"Don't escape. The holy powder is useful as a protective measure against evil ghosts," said Lune. "Don't try to escape. There is only a bit of a holy element inside that."
Han Ya said, "No. No. No... I don't want to! That's right! I'm allergic to holy elements. I cannot have that on me!"
"Don't worry, child. This is painless~" said Aunt Carmel.
A smiling Aunt Carmel approached him slowly but to Han Ya's eye, that smile is an evil smile coming from a demon within his heart. He is original and Undead even in the human body, his instinct to fear the holy element is still there.
Han Ya could only watch as Aunt Carmel sprinkled some holy powder on Han Ya who had his eyes completely. Even before the holy powder fell on him, he suddenly started sneezing continuously. His nose turns red and unbearable itchiness spreads from his face.
Achoo! achoo! Achoo!!
Han Ya said between his sneezes, "I don't want Achoo! It is! Achoo~ cough... Achoo... Itchy...nose.so itchy~ achooo~"
Even Meiling felt bad for him, "Aunt Car... He looks pitiful. He might really be allergic to the holy element because he had Awakened an Undead bloodline."
Everyone observed Han ya closely and saw his nose turning red and the corner of his eyes a bit red from itchiness as well. He indeed looks like someone with allergies.
Uncle Sid sighed and said, "Sigh~ that's enough. Let go of Han Ya. We need to get going before the other players arrive and interfere with our plans."
After all the preparation was done. This small group of players with Uncle Sid in lead, Han Ya at the rear, and the twins at the two sides respectively left the two female players at the center which is the safest place. They confidently crossed the stone bridge as fast as they could and instantly sprint the moment they've entered the bridge and as expected when they've reached the center of the bridge the thousands of red ghosts had started to appear attacking on all sides.
