Chapter 125
The road is right under your feet and leads to the future. Even if there are many obstacles ahead, you still have to move forward.
It is better to pass the level than not to pass it. If you pass it, you can have a rest for a few days and continue to live. But if you don't pass it, you are just waiting to die.
Ye Chenyi pondered for a while, then took Xu Maorong forward.
This time, no steel suddenly came out from underground to chase them and turn them into meat paste. Instead, they entered a "0" very smoothly.
But as soon as he entered, he found that it was full of rotten smell, like the smell of fermented dead fish and rotten shrimp. Ye Chenyi immediately covered his nose and felt very nauseous.
"Brother, are you okay?"
Ye Chenyi shook his head at him and suppressed the urge to vomit.
The smell here is like Ye Chenyi has become a vegetable, completely unable to resist, and then ten thousand athletes with red, itchy, rotten, blistered and peeling soles take turns stuffing their feet into his mouth.
Ye Chenyi put some cooling oil on a tissue and stuffed it into his nostrils, but it didn't work at all. The stench penetrated his soul. Ye Chenyi couldn't help but vomit, and Xu Maorong's body shook several times.
"Xiao Xu!" Ye Chenyi immediately grabbed his arm and looked around vigilantly. His eyes finally fell on the back of his hand, and then he grabbed Xiao Xu's hand again, and saw that the back of his hand also had rotten scales. His heart tightened for a moment.
Xiao Xu also noticed it, and he immediately said to Ye Chenyi: "We must leave as soon as possible. The smell here will corrode people."
It's like an epidemic that can be transmitted through contact.
It's terrible.
Just as Xiao Xu was about to nod, a slippery tongue dripping with green saliva suddenly shot out from the front, and Ye Chenyi's tentacles immediately started fighting with the other party. Meat pieces flew everywhere, and blood rained down.
The stench of decay became worse.
A dense mass of rotten ghosts crawled out of the steel spiked walls in the circle and gathered around Ye Chenyi and Xu Maorong. They looked like people transformed from green fish, with fish faces twisted into human faces, hunched over, with fins on their backs, fish tails on their lower bodies, and scales all over their bodies.
The tongue can eject, and the tentacles that are touched will instantly turn black, rot and break.
These strange monsters jumped towards Ye Chenyi and Xu Maorong. Their sharp teeth were black and cold, different from the sharpness of rotten teeth. When they pounced on them, Ye Chenyi's eyes seemed to turn completely black in an instant, and the next moment, the evil spirit domain opened up, and a sea of fire rose and covered them.
The sound of burning and screaming suddenly rang out!
Flames also rose from Ye Chenyi's body, burning the rotten and scaly parts alive. When Xiao Xu's contaminated parts were burned, many red tears fell from his eyes. It hurt so much. But he didn't make a sound.
Ye Chenyi felt so distressed that he even blew on him.
They headed towards the next "circle".
There is only one way to go here, and you can only follow this road to the end.
At this moment, on the top of a mountain piled with steel spikes, a level 80 ghost sat high on a cold steel seat, his entire body having been turned into steel.
Those eyes seemed to be made of titanium alloy, and they were full of cold light.
Next to his throne, there was a monster wrapped in thorns. This monster no longer had a human shape. It was bulging like a hot air balloon.
It had no head or feet, only two hands, and its face was on the sphere. The monster seemed unhappy because it was surrounded by spikes, and angrily slapped the spikes with its hands, and the spikes instantly flattened. But the monster's hand still bled, so the iron man quickly retracted the spikes and looked at the monster's hand.
The moment the monster's hand was grabbed by Iron Man, it swallowed Iron Man.
But the monster was only LV70, no match for Iron Man, and was quickly subdued. He was once again surrounded by the spikes.
After Iron Man looked at the monster's hand, he kissed the monster's lips.
There was a dead silence in the monster's eyes, and there was no response.
I just instinctively knew that I was no match for him, so I behaved a little more obediently after being trapped.
Iron Man sat on the Iron Throne again. The ground shook and a spike suddenly appeared with a fresh corpse on it.
The Iron Man began to bleed the blood, and he handed the round steel jar to the spherical monster after collecting the blood.
Iron Man watched the spherical monster eat happily and whispered softly, "Yuezai, I will protect you. As long as I am here, no one can hurt you, not even me..."
After the blood was drained, the corpse underwent strange changes, as if it had turned into a ghost under the influence of some strange power. The already hideous corpse now suddenly opened its eyes, and the eyes turned completely black.
Seeing the Iron Man was about to charge at him, he was pierced into minced meat by thousands of spikes. Before the minced meat was formed, he was dragged down by the iron vines and dragged into the countless "0".
——
It’s not easy to break into the “circle”.
There is a smell of decay in every "circle".
All rotten smells can infect people.
However, there is only one way to get up, which is directly leading to the circle.
After more than a dozen "circles", Ye Chenyi and his friends even met other people, but they disappeared in the next "circle". It seems that this steel city is divided into several areas, some of which are interconnected, while others are not.
"The weirdness here is even more difficult to deal with than the weirdness in the second level."
There are endless varieties. From the assimilated fish monster in the first circle to the illusionary human-faced butterfly and sweet and sour spareribs later...
The illusionary human-faced butterfly is called a butterfly, but in fact it looks more like a rotten human with butterfly wings. The tangled and drooping things on the rotten and decayed wings look very much like drooping intestines. The illusion they create tempts people to tear off their own flesh and blood.
But when it comes to illusions, Xu Maorong is the master.
It was relatively easy for them to get in.
As for sweet and sour spare ribs, Ye Chenyi and Xu Maorong will never eat this dish again.
The rules are simple. Take out a rib and make a plate of sweet and sour spare ribs for the other person to taste. Just give him/her a compliment and that's it.
If one person passes the level alone, he will become bacon hanging on the spikes.
They also wanted to solve the weirdness here, but from beginning to end they did not see any weird traces in this circle. It seemed that there was only a "sweet and sour spare ribs" rule in this circle.
"Brother, I wonder if you have discovered it?" After hearing Ye Chenyi say that the third level was much more difficult than the second level, Xiao Xu asked Ye Chenyi.
Ye Chenyi looked at Xiao Xu.
"What did you find?"
"These levels we went through, those weird ones... a lot of them were wearing human clothes."
"?" Ye Chenyi frowned, "Many ghosts are mutated after death. Isn't that normal?"
"Brother, what you said makes sense, but that's not what I want to say. It's that these weird clothes are relatively new."
"You mean... all the weirdness in these "circles" are caused by the dead players?" Ye Chenyi couldn't help but frowned, feeling a little panicked.
Xu Maorong nodded slightly and said to Ye Chenyi: "Brother, if my guess is correct, this means that the road we are taking may have countless levels. After all, we don't know how many players have passed the third level. Just looking at the number of deaths in our group, you can imagine how many players died in the third level. If they all become evil spirits and guard the level, when will we be able to get through? Even if we get through, by then we will have exhausted our evil spirit power and be seriously injured and dying, and we will not be able to compete with the BOSS behind the scenes, right?"
After hearing what Xu Maorong said, Ye Chenyi's mind suddenly became clear.
The third level, if they are the first group to challenge it, there are now more than 900 levels.
If it is the second batch, there will be almost 1,900 levels.
If it is the third batch, there will be about 2,800 levels.
…
"What you mean is..." Ye Chenyi looked at Xu Maorong thoughtfully.
Xu Maorong nodded at him.
"The enemy is waging a war of attrition against us, so we can't let them do what they want. We have to get through it and leave as soon as possible. Brother, your Rubik's Cube can be put to good use."
The fire of the whole furnace city
The water of the whole sea city
A Rubik's Cube with both offensive and defensive capabilities
They can use this to force their way in.
As soon as Xu Maorong finished his words, the entire circle suddenly closed like a huge steel flower bud, and the sharp thorns on the wall were about to pierce them.
The Iron Man on the Iron Throne at the end of the road closed his eyes, opened them again, and killed Xu Maorong and Ye Chenyi without hesitation.
He had known for a long time that with the arrival of Xu Maorong and Ye Chenyi, he would most likely not be able to protect his Yue cub.
Xu Maorong is too smart and Ye Chenyi is too powerful.
Raging flames burned the sky, and a torrent of steel flowed like magma, and was melted by the high temperature before it could catch up.
But even though the steel torrent was blocked, there were still countless spikes flying towards Ye Chenyi and Xu Maorong from all directions in the sky and on the ground, and the sea water was rolled up and rolled up the road paved by the Rubik's Cube.
Ye Chenyi and Xu Maorong ran wildly on the Rubik's Cube Road and rushed to the top of the Steel Mountain.
When Iron Man saw this scene, he instantly stood up from the throne. He raised his hands, and the steel that had turned into molten iron was peeled off from the flames, rushing towards Ye and Xu on the Rubik's Cube like a fire dragon.
Xu Maorong's eyes released a strange distortion of space.
Ye Chenyi's evil spirit domain expanded rapidly.
The molten iron surged up into the sky like a tsunami, covering the sea water. The steel man pressed down with his hands, and the molten iron immediately covered it.
The moment the molten iron and seawater met, the water burst open, and thick white mist instantly filled the entire city.
Iron Man suddenly lost sight of Ye Xu. He stretched out his hand towards the spherical monster, and with a clench of his palm, the spherical monster was squeezed into an iron ball, letting out a miserable howl.
Blood continued to flow out from the iron ball.
Iron Man's eyes were filled with heartache.
Although he knew that it would hurt Yuezi, he still did it. Only in this way could he protect him well. Once this problem was solved, Yuezi would never suffer such pain again.
He held the iron ball against his chest, and after the iron ball melted into his chest, he took a step forward and it melted and disappeared.
——
There were still dozens of meters away from the top of the mountain. Ye Chenyi put one hand around Xiao Xu's waist and ran with him at a very fast speed, and the evil spirit area kept moving.
However, there should be rules in the third level that restrict the free use of the evil ghost domain, otherwise Ye Chenyi would not have used the evil ghost domain with such difficulty. He almost had to mobilize all the evil ghost power in his body to compete with the restrictive rules here. The range of the evil ghost domain that can be opened and the range of teleportation are also very small.
Ye Chenyi, who was carrying Xu Maorong and running at full speed, was about to reach the top of the mountain and had already seen the cold steel spike piercing the throne, when he suddenly turned back -
boom!
The black evil spirit domain was as thick as flowing oil. The intensity of the evil spirit domain had affected the spiritual space. The entire real space was distorted. The place where Ye Chenyi and Xu Maorong were located was turned into a distorted void. The weird and ominous things in other spaces could be vaguely seen.
At the same time, huge tentacles surged out from Ye Chenyi's left!
The tentacles blocked the first wave of the steel torrent and were pierced into mud. The Rubik's Cube under its feet quickly wrapped around it, and flames swept over the sea water. However, a surging wave of molten iron and a wave of steel cones rushed up at the same time!
"elder brother!"
Xu Maorong was thrown away directly and far away.
Ye Chenyi could not care about him. As soon as he fought with the other party, the left half of his body was shattered, and the tentacles occupied his left half. The degree of evil spirit transformation was rapidly rising. Whether Xu Maorong could protect him was aside. The most important thing was whether he could eat him after he could not help himself and lost all his sanity.
The evil spirit realm seemed to crack an invisible glass cover, opening wider. The flames wrapped around the steel torrent, the Rubik's Cube wrapped around the flames, the sea water wrapped around the Rubik's Cube, and the evil spirit realm wrapped around the Rubik's Cube. Hundreds of thunders exploded in the sky, and the end of the world was just like this.
Ye Chenyi looked up in the evil ghost realm and saw an iron man floating beside the Rubik's Cube. The sky was filled with thunder, the earth was dark, and countless iron spikes were his background!
LV80 level weirdness
This was the first time Ye Chenyi encountered such a strong opponent.
The moment their eyes met, they moved at the same time.
Ye Chenyi’s ghost transformation is becoming more and more intense, so the battle must be resolved quickly. Otherwise, even if he wins, he will not be able to return to his human form.
The ghost camera must be used before it becomes 100% evil.
Butler, this iron man, seems to have no weaknesses and remains unscathed no matter how powerful the attack is.
Xu Maorong's eyes shone with black light, and the space in front of his eyelashes seemed to be distorted. He watched the battle. The evil spirit was too powerful, and the impact was too strong. His eyeballs were bleeding red. But he didn't blink, and finally found the only weakness on Iron Man.
When Xu Maorong saw Ye Chenyi's tentacles falling to the ground but he did not die immediately, but instead grew all kinds of strange limbs that crawled and squirmed on the ground like ants, locusts, and maggots, he knew that if this continued, Ye Chenyi's degree of transformation into a fierce ghost would definitely reach 100%.
The battle is getting more and more intense!
The entire third level of the Steel City was collapsing, the ground was falling apart, and all the steel was turned into powder.
The space in front of Xu Maorong suddenly twisted. He took a step forward and in the next moment he entered Ye Chenyi's evil spirit domain. "Its entire body is in an extremely weird state, except for its heart."
Ye Chenyi understood immediately.
Specifically attacking Iron Man's heart.
Xu Maorong plans to leave Ye Chenyi's evil spirit territory.
Ye Chenyi couldn't hear the message from the evil spirits outside the area, so he could only come in. But it was easier to come in than to go out. Before he could step out, he was wrapped around the waist by a tentacle and stuck to Ye Chenyi's back.
"Wow! Your waist is so soft and thin, can you give it a kiss, husband?"
"Yongzi, Mua~"
"Oh~ I love it so much!"
…
Ye Chenyi couldn't take care of Xu Maorong at all. All the weird things in him had their own thoughts, but without exception, they were all LSP. He didn't know why this happened, but the most important thing at the moment was to solve the crisis in front of him!
Ye Chenyi's right eye had turned completely black, with a blood-red light flashing in the depths of his black pupil. The dark evil spirit field that was as thick as a tide instantly burned with blood-red flames. The tentacles swept over the Iron Man, whose whole body was melting due to his inability to resist the evil spirit's power, and clamped him tightly in the surging blood-red flames, causing him to melt even more rapidly.
Other tentacles rolled up their spikes and swung over, pinning him down in the blood-red flames.
The Iron City was collapsing. But in the third level, the true face of the city was revealed.
It's like an ice cream with a chocolate core. The outer layer of cream melts away, revealing the chocolate core inside.
This is a Piltover.
The city is filled with all kinds of leather houses, leather lanterns, leather carts, leather people...
When the Steel City melted away completely, not even a grain of iron powder was left, the steel on the Iron Man's body also melted away, revealing a human body.
Ye Chenyi's pupils trembled violently when he saw his face!
The next moment he pulled out a golden nail from Bai Xiaoyu's temple, and then without hesitation he stabbed the road sign directly through his head and nailed it to the ground.
Ye Chenyi chopped off his alien limbs with a knife, used a camera to reduce the degree of his evil spirit transformation, and used the evil spirit's power to repair the left half of his body.
Rubik's Cube Retracted
The evil spirit realm is still open
Ye Chenyi looked at Bai Xiaoyu without saying anything. He took out a cigarette, lit it, put it in his mouth, lowered his eyes and glanced at Xu Maorong, then took out a sofa chair from the storage space and sat down. He smoked without saying anything.
Xu Maorong looked at Bai Xiaoyu who didn't say a word or even look at them. His lips moved slightly before he said, "Although I have always guessed that the Ghost Apartment is one of the top 10 S-level forbidden areas in the world, all the ghosts in it should have places that other ghosts can't reach, but I didn't expect you to grow so fast. That's right..." Xu Maorong said with difficulty, "You killed a lot of challengers, a batch of 1,000 people. In such a big and weird city, thousands of challengers died here, becoming the fertilizer that nourishes you to become stronger. It would be strange if you didn't become stronger."
Bai Xiaoyu didn't say anything and didn't even look at them.
Xu Maorong bit his lip and asked, "Why did you have to go this far? Xiaoyu, you weren't like this before."
Bai Xiaoyu looked up suddenly and saw that there was no blood or tears in his pair of completely black eyes, but rather overwhelming hatred!
“I wasn’t like this before!”
“What was I like before?”
"What do you think I should do?"
"ah?!!"
Xu Maorong trembled and took a step back involuntarily.
"Yes! I killed them! I killed a lot of people! But what did I do wrong? I did nothing wrong! Look at this Piltover!"
"Do you know how to pass the level? You have to peel off Yuezai's skin, again and again, and do these...ah...ah..." He struggled, struggled violently, and finally the road sign loosened slightly, but no matter how much Bai Xiaoyu struggled, it was still in vain. He was beaten back to his original form by Ye Chenyi and nailed by the road sign, like a kitten stuck on a strong mousetrap. The more he struggled, the more he was fixed to the mousetrap by the glue, until his fur was pulled off by the glue, and the blood that oozed out allowed the kitten to move a little, making it mistakenly think that it saw a glimmer of hope for life. But soon he struggled again and was powerless, only to find that this little hope of life was still shrouded in the shadow of death.
Bai Xiaoyu looked at Xu Maorong and Ye Chenyi in despair.
Ye Chenyi said that if he killed someone, he would kill himself!
I almost killed him, he will definitely kill me!
Bai Xiaoyu wailed in despair, tears of blood and hatred flowing from her collapsed body.
“Why?!”
"What did my Yuezi do wrong?!"
“Why?!”
“Why do we have to peel his skin one by one? Do you know how to pass this level? Make a leather item that satisfies Him, and you can pass the level! Is it easy?!”
"I won't allow it! I won't allow anyone to bully him again! Never!"
Bai Xiaoyu seemed to be crazy. "I didn't want to kill them at first. They don't deserve to live! They actually said that if they peeled my Yuezai's skin off, he wouldn't die. He wouldn't die but he would be in pain! How could I bear to see him in pain? These people deserve to die! Damn it!"
Xu Maorong took several steps back, his eyes filled with blood and tears. Ye Chenyi held his hand and raised his head. Only the cigarette butt was left, the flame flickering.
He put out his cigarette, his eyes were filled with gloom. He looked at Bai Xiaoyu and said, "Anything else you want to say?"
Bai Xiaoyu looked at Ye Chenyi and smiled miserably. She was extremely desperate.
Xu Maorong held Ye Chenyi's hand tightly and looked at him.
Ye Chenyi licked his dry lips and said, "I don't need his skin. I will help you destroy this city."
Bai Xiaoyu slowly closed her eyes, "Thank you."
It was as if a sea of fire that could burn up the sky had started in this city.
The blood-red flames burned this place into ashes with a strange and ominous look.
Until this place burned into nothingness and ceased to exist.
Ye Chenyi, who was at level 80, easily used the weirdness in Xu Maorong's eyes to construct a space channel and planned to leave here. At this time, the evening breeze blew, and an iron ball rolled from the place where Bai Xiaoyu's body was burned, hit the toes of Xu Maorong, and gently opened up, like a flower, but there was nothing inside.
