Above the sky, a man looked down at the pitch-black behemoth writhing on the ground. Five elemental swords stuck in its body had completely sealed the behemoth's energy hub, leaving it only with a limited time for its dying struggle and impotent rage.
The man's silver wings made the sun, moon, and stars pale in comparison. With a flick of his hand, twelve void swords surrounded him like stars around the moon.
The dawn was breaking, and the opportunity for this decisive blow had been created thanks to the sacrifice of hundreds of teammates. Yet, the man's unparalleled face remained expressionless, showing neither joy nor sorrow.
"Tsk." With a click of the tongue that sounded like relief, yet also tinged with emptiness, the loading screen finally ended.
[Trial - The End of Original Sin]
"Roar." The mournful cry shook the heavens and the earth; the sound waves that spread for hundreds of miles were perhaps the last trace left to the world by this legendary creature.
Twelve void swords descended from the sky, erasing the last trace of blood from the black behemoth.
"Yay! First kill in the entire server! Guild leader, quickly check what artifact dropped!"
"Heh, even if the divine artifact explodes, you won't get a share."
"Hmph, can't I even enjoy watching? You nitpicker!"
"Hey, why isn't the president saying anything? Isn't he always the one who loves to show off?"
The Dark Light guild's guild channel was already flooded with messages, but the person in question had yet to respond.
The boss battle, which lasted for more than two hours, was almost the limit of Wu Yu's bladder. At this moment, he was wrapped in a thick gray down jacket and walking in his own corridor in cotton slippers.
As soon as he stepped out of the warmth of his room, Wu Yu felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. The heroic spirit he had just felt from slaughtering the world boss had vanished completely, and he could only wish he could return to his cozy home as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, teleportation is not a real-world cheat; that ten-meter distance must be covered on foot.
I really don't understand the purpose of the human excretory system. Sigh, if I had been born a few hundred years later, perhaps this cumbersome organ would have disappeared on its own.
As an idealist, Wu Yu often daydreams in his spare time. This trait, which is not a flaw, has not caused him any trouble. However, it makes it difficult for Wu Yu to truly like anything, and he is particularly fickle when it comes to playing games.
The popular online game "Gods" is no exception, because in Wu Yu's view, playing this kind of game usually only requires a little skill, a little luck, a little effort, and a lot of money.
Coincidentally, Wu Yu had all these things, which is why he created a top-tier swordsman account in "Gods". However, after killing the so-called strongest BOSS in the entire server, Wu Yu's last bit of interest in the game had completely disappeared.
Wu Yu had just found a buyer for the account a few days ago. In addition to breaking even, he could also make a small profit, which would give him more funds to conquer other games.
This is also why Wu Yu is able to dominate the gaming world, because he doesn't have any sentimentality. He would never wait until a game is about to die out before selling his account for a pittance.
There's no way around it. Although Wu Yu's family has some money, they're not so wealthy that he can spend it all on every game. After all, the key is to make good use of funds.
"Haha, even after living here for twenty years, I still haven't gotten used to the winters here. But thinking about it, I'm not a masochist. It would be a miracle if I got used to this kind of external persecution." Even when no one was around, Wu Yu sometimes liked to mutter to himself.
Back in his room, Wu Yu rubbed his hands together and took a sip of warm water from the thermos next to him. Only then did he feel a little better, as his body was sensitive to the cold. At the same time, Wu Yu also clicked the "Claim Reward" icon that he had clicked countless times before.
But perhaps because he was so familiar with it, Wu Yu, who subconsciously made this move, didn't even notice that the icon on the computer screen had already changed to the four big characters "I want to travel through time".
Wu Yu felt his eyes flash by the sudden brightness of the computer screen, and then he vanished into thin air.
The air conditioner in the room was still blowing out warm air, and the guild channel was buzzing with activity, but unfortunately, Wu Yu could no longer feel any of that.
···
It was hot, incredibly hot. It felt almost like being in a sauna, but the difference was that no normal person would go to a sauna wrapped in a down jacket.
Wu Yu had just opened his eyes when he was immediately dazzled by the bright sunlight. He had no choice but to close his eyes again and then slowly open them a crack.
But the scene before him shocked him so much that he questioned his existence, and he even ignored the unbearable heat.
The sky was a clear, cloudless blue, a rare treat for Wu Yu's polluted city. But the main problem was that he didn't recognize the land beneath his feet at all.
Oh, no, at least he knew the scientific name: the desert, which is out of step with modernity and is known as the Sea of Death.
The yellow sand in the sky didn't change because of Wu Yu's mood; it continued to swirl around. Occasionally, when the wind picked up, it would stir up even more dust. Wu Yu stood there for a few seconds, then suddenly burst into an awkward laugh.
"Haha! Ha! This must be a dream, yes, it's a dream... but how can this dream feel so real!"
Wu Yu laughed until he almost cried. At that moment, he felt sweat seeping out from his back. Suddenly, Wu Yu fiercely took off his down jacket, threw it hard on the ground, sat down on it, and fell into silence.
After an unknown amount of time, Wu Yu finally came to his senses. He stood up with a serious expression and shouted.
