Bai Liu walked towards Tavier step by step, lifted Tavier's hand, placed the black bone whip ring on it, and smiled gently: "Have you thought about it?"
Tavel stared calmly at Bai Liu in the illusion, his silver-blue eyes were silent, and a pure black whip appeared in his hand.
"Maybe one day I will die in exchange for your love, but not now."
The smile on Bai Liu's face deepened: "Why not? Your presence now only makes me feel painful, doesn't it?"
Tavel raised his eyes and looked directly at Bai Liu: "Because I don't want to."
The expression on Bai Liu's face froze.
"Even if I can only make you suffer, I will stay by your side." A hurricane blew from behind Tavel, ruffling his long hair and blowing the collar of his suit into disarray.
"Your pain and faith can only be attributed to me, and your desire and love can only be bound to me."
"Until you completely kill me, I will never let you believe in other evil gods."
"You are mine."
Tavel raised the whip and looked into Bai Liu's eyes: "Although it is despicable, I am indeed so greedy when I fall in love with someone."
"Is that so? There's nothing we can do." Bai Liu sighed with regret, raised his whip, and looked at Tavel with a smile, "Then I can only kill you."
The tavern in front of him shattered like a burning old photo, the illusion collapsed, and Tawil stood at the bottom of the muddy lake holding a black whip.
Everything around me turned into chaotic, jumping colored lines, like a series of uncolored drafts randomly superimposed on Photoshop. Only the lake bottom under my feet was a real muddy gray, with rotten, twisting corpses struggling in the mud.
This is the real gaming world, and it's about to break down.
Bai Liu held a whip that had been completely dyed black in his right hand and stood far away from Hei Tao. His shirt was already soaked through, sticking to his body in patches and dripping with water.
"You are unwilling to give up and accept the power of the evil god, are you?" Tavel asked calmly.
Bai Liu slowly raised his head: "Xie Ta, we both chose the way we hate the most to solve the problem."
"If I look back now..."
"It has no value, right?" Tavel continued Bai Liu's words, "Is gaining value so important to you?"
"The essence of all human desires is to gain value." Bai Liu looked at Tavel calmly, "It's just that some values can be gained from oneself, and some values must be gained from others."
Tawil's long hair was blown by the wind that came from nowhere, and even his voice was blown into a distorted voice:
"Bai Liu, what about you? What value do you want to obtain?"
Bai Liu looked at Tavier, whose figure was blurred by the wind, and said slowly: "I want to be able to dominate the value of God's existence."
"Is it okay even if you are completely consumed by desire for this value?" Tawil asked softly.
Bai Liu exhaled, and he suddenly smiled: "Completely consumed by desire?"
"Is this your first day meeting me, Sheta? When did I exist without desire?"
"I am originally a collection of desires. If there is anything to be swallowed, it is me swallowing up the desires, not the desires swallowing me."
The wind grew stronger and stronger, and the inverted cross pendant hanging on Bai Liu's neck danced in the wind, flashing a strange halo.
Tavel rushed out from the wind, and a clean and neat black whip came straight at Bai Liu's face. Bai Liu dodged by tilting his shoulder. Tavel was already close to Bai Liu. He stretched out his hand without looking away to grab the reverse cross pendant on Bai Liu's chest. His fingers had already touched the surface of the pendant.
Bai Liusi didn't stop and raised her hand to whip him, but Tavel whipped back to block the attack.
In the moment when the two whips struck, the entire space shook and twisted continuously.
[System warning: The world line of "Jungle Edge" is collapsing because it cannot accommodate too much data related to the evil god... It has collapsed by 80%...]
Bai Liu was almost forced to his knees by Tavel's whip and took several steps back.
Seeing that Bai Liu couldn't hold back the blood from the corner of his mouth, Tavel took a step back, pursed his lips, and pulled the whip back slightly.
...No matter how determined he was, he couldn't be cruel to Bai Liu.
Bai Liu swung the whip again without any hesitation.
Tavel did not use the whip. Instead, he dodged to the side and pulled the whip back with one hand, while reaching out with the other hand to hook the inverted cross on the collar of Bai Liu's shirt.
The moment Tawil touched the inverted cross, Bai Liu looked straight into Tawil's eyes without dodging. He suddenly smiled, lowered his head and held the inverted cross in his mouth, pressing the pendant to the bottom of his mouth with his tongue. Even Tawil's fingers were bitten by Bai Liu.
Tavel paused for a moment, loosened the whip, bent his knees to hold Bai Liu down, opened his thumb and index finger to block Bai Liu's mouth, and reached in with his other hand to try to pull out the reverse cross that Bai Liu had put in his mouth.
In a close combat situation, Bai Liu was not at an advantage with the whip and was restrained by Tavel, unable to resist.
The next second, countless dead hands emerged from the quagmire around Tawil, grabbed Tawil's feet and pulled him down.
Bai Liu took the opportunity to escape. He tilted his head and spit out the reverse cross, then turned around and whipped Tavel again.
[System warning: The world line of "Jungle Edge" has now collapsed by 95%...]
Tawil whipped away the dead hands that were holding him, stared at the long whip with spurs coming straight at him, and tightened his grip on the whip in his hand.
"You are not allowed to fight so hard in the swimming pool--!!" An angry roar interrupted the world at the bottom of the lake. Nishen raised his heavy sword and chopped it down from the chaotic lines around the bottom of the lake, and landed steadily on the bottom of the lake.
As soon as Nishen landed on the ground, he collapsed and shouted: "You two little bastards, do something good! If you fight again, this place will collapse! There is no need to let the whole world be buried with you two just because of love and quarrel!"
But neither Bai Liu nor Tavel listened to him and continued fighting.
The bottom of the lake was shaking violently, and the edges, like a block of dry soil that had solidified long ago, began to break apart under the rapid stomping of Bai Liu and Tavel.
[System warning: The world line of "Jungle Edge" has now collapsed by 99%...]
Being ignored by both, Nishen took a deep breath, and slowly raised his heavy sword, his face dark as if water was dripping out: "--Use the Judge's Authority--Evil God Judgment."
[System warning: Did the player, Judge of the God of Rebellion, use the highest level personal skill (Judgement of the Evil God) in the Monster Book identity (Judge of the God of Rebellion)? ]
【yes.】
When the two whips collided and crossed each other again, Nishen appeared between Bai Liu and Tavel with his heavy sword raised like a flash.
Nishen looked serious and aimed at the intersection of the two black whips and chopped them down fiercely.
A violent burst of white light exploded from where the heavy sword struck. The huge impact force forced Bai Liu and Tavel to let go of their whips and they were knocked far away.
The two pure black whips and the heavy swords made cracking sounds almost at the same time, and the entire world line emitted a distorted colorful halo. The sky flickered like a mosaic, and fragments kept falling from everywhere and hitting the bottom of the lake, and were swallowed up by the mud.
The corpse at the bottom of the lake let out heart-wrenching howls.
The black whip made a crisp sound under the heavy sword, and the smooth surface of the heavy sword showed clear cracks like broken glass. The world line that had been disturbed by the two whips finally calmed down.
Nishen gritted his teeth and pressed down the heavy sword in his hand. The veins on his forehead and neck bulged, his eyes and face turned red, blood oozed out of his mouth, nose and pores, the bones in his hands holding the heavy sword broke one by one, and even his shoulders collapsed.
[System warning: The health of the player's God-defying Judge is rapidly decreasing...]
Nishen coughed and spat out a large mouthful of dirty blood, then spoke word by word: "--I've told you before, when children are playing games, don't play with toys that are too aggressive. It's easy to hurt each other, and in the end you'll be the ones who get hurt--"
"There is no need to continue this game of fratricide."
[System prompt: The player, the Judge of the Anti-God, uses the Judgement of the Evil God to terminate the Evil God Succession Ceremony, neutralize the power of the Evil God, and the world line collapses and ends.]
[System warning: The world line of "Jungle Edge" is being fully repaired, and all players are forced to exit the game. ]
【System prompt: Player Bai Liu has exited the game. 】
Tang Erda and Liu Jiayi, who had been guarding the swimming pool, noticed the unusual movement in the swimming pool and turned around to look.
Bai Liu, with his long hair spread out and his body soaking wet, stretched out a hand from the swimming pool. Tang Erda immediately reached out and pulled him up.
When Liu Jiayi saw Bai Liu's face, her expression changed: "How did you get so badly injured?"
Blood was oozing from the corners of Bai Liu's mouth, his long hair was disheveled and stuck to his pale face, the long whip in his hand was reduced to a broken handle and bone whip fragments falling down, and his shirt was covered in blood.
"My injuries are not serious." Bai Liu raised the back of his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, his expression was very calm, "The injuries of others are more serious than mine."
"That tactician named Nishen may die in the game."
Tang Er was shocked: "You killed him?!"
"No." Bai Liu said, "I don't know what method Nishen used to rush over and cut off my and Xie... Heitao's whips. Some kind of power related to the evil god in the whip backfired on Nishen."
"When I logged out, I saw Nishen kneeling on the ground with his hands on the heavy sword, spitting blood. He looked like he was going to die."
Even Liu Jiayi was shocked by this: "Did you and Heitao's whips get broken into pieces? Yours is fine, it's just an additional item, but Heitao's is a skill weapon, how did you break it?!"
"I don't know." Bai Liu lowered his eyes and walked forward, "It seems to be related to his skills."
"Bai Liu." Tang Erda took a deep breath and held Bai Liu's shoulders to prevent him from moving forward. "... Let me ask you something. Did you really complete the succession ceremony of the evil god?"
Bai Liu glanced sideways and said, "When did Captain Tang become interested in this kind of second-rate, in-game identity-changing ceremony?"
"I actually don't know what this ritual is, but I don't think it's as simple as you said." Tang Er stared at Bai Liu with his dark blue eyes, "Have you finished it?"
Bai Liu was silent for a moment, then said frankly, "If I have to say something, I'll leave it half-finished."
"I got the status of the evil god's successor and a strengthened body, but the whip was cut off, and the most important inverted cross in the ceremony was snatched away by the Spade guy."
Tang Erda heaved a sigh of relief. He let go of Bai Liu's shoulder and said awkwardly, "... I was a little anxious just now. Are you okay?"
"Nothing." Bai Liu turned his head, raised his eyebrows and smiled at Tang Er. "It is Captain Tang's responsibility to supervise me and prevent me from becoming bad. A good citizen like me will fully cooperate with Captain Tang's inquiries on the performance of his duties."
Tang Er was stunned when he saw Bai Liu's smile.
Bai Liu's smile before had a sense of polite hypocrisy, as if he wanted to write the five big words "I'm deceiving you" on his face. He did it in a nonchalant manner, not like he was deliberately deceiving anyone.
But now Bai Liu's face was pale and there was blood at the corner of his mouth, but he did not show any weakness at all. Instead, when he smiled, there was a sense of superiority that came over him, making people feel as if he was the person you turned to for help, and he was also listening to your troubles very seriously, indulging you with a smile, and willing to solve your problems.
...This way of facing people in the posture of God is like Bai Liu.
"I'm not seriously injured. Let me go back to the guild to check on the other members."
After saying that, Bai Liu walked forward without looking back. Tang Er glanced at the pool hesitantly and called out to Bai Liu: "Aren't you going to... wait for Heitao for a moment?"
Bai Liu smiled and looked at Tang Erda: "I didn't kill Heitao, nor did I kill Nishen. I didn't kill any good people in the game. You don't have to worry about this."
"Or maybe you're worried about me and think I'm lying. Can we stay here and wait for a while?" Bai Liu said considerately.
"No." Tang Erda stretched out his hand and drew a line between Bai Liu and the pool, and asked hesitantly, "You and Heitao were in the game, and the two of you..." They got married, kissed, and carried each other on their backs...
"It looks like they have a very good relationship." Tang Erda tried his best to find an adjective and said dryly, "Don't you want to confirm the status of Heitao?"
Tang Erda quit the game very early. He did not see the subsequent dispute between Bai Liu and Hei Tao. He only saw the stage when Hei Tao rescued them and went to find Bai Liu.
Bai Liu blinked slowly and said in sudden realization, "Oh, that one."
"That's just a game." Bai Liu smiled, "I didn't take it seriously."
