Chapter 123
Hell can expand, and Su Xingyuan, who now owns a very large area, knows this best.
In other words, "Hell" is just the name of this world that seems a little scary. Essentially, it is not much different from the game world or the human world, except that it accepts everything.
Whether it is the terrifying-looking races of hell or the monsters that love killing and fighting, hell never rejects any creature. Even the most innocent angel has a chance of survival after falling into hell - the predecessor of the second devil was a fallen angel who was seriously injured and dying and accidentally came to the entrance of hell.
You have a deeper understanding of Hell.
[Your career compatibility has improved]
Su Xingyuan blinked, and he remembered that he came here because of [career upgrade].
So……
What does it take to advance further in the career of "Lord of Hell"?
Su Xingyuan looked down.
He no longer rises, but sinks. Sinking into the land of a world called "Hell", his perception of the surroundings began to weaken, his five senses were obscured, and he seemed to gradually merge with the world.
He can feel the pulse of the "world".
And now, the pulse coincided with his heartbeat.
When the leaders of the hell races used their magic to tear open the barriers between the worlds, the first world they created was not other worlds, but their own homes. They tore open the outer skin of Hell that was used to protect itself, and forcibly pulled the originally naturally running Hell into the disputes between the worlds, and also into the vision of other higher races.
Su Xingyuan felt like he was being spied on.
Eyes patrolled his body with either vigilance or malice, as if sizing up an enemy or an object, with a faint snicker as if wanting to factor the whole world into its calculations.
Flames burned and lava gushed out.
Su Xingyuan felt the hostility that wanted to destroy everything, but perhaps because of his high intelligence, this hostility did not affect his emotions. Instead, it made him more certain of one thing -
"Hell is innocent." Su Xingyuan thought firmly.
Yes, of course he knew that hell was terrible. Hell nurtured many creatures that could be called cancers, and it never chose a master to control them.
But who says this is wrong?
It's just a little more tolerant, a little more lovely, and a little more simple.
The figure of the black-haired boy condensed on the land in the center of hell.
Blue flames surrounded him, turning his emerald green eyes into a light blue. He smiled, half squatted down, and said, "Good boy."
The expression on the black-haired boy's face was so innocent that he looked like an angel descending from heaven.
"Don't worry, as long as you kill the guy who covets you, you will definitely become as cheerful and sunny as me."
After sincerely comforting his future territory, Su Xingyuan originally felt a force pulling his soul out of this space, but the next second, this force disappeared, and was replaced by the surrounding space suddenly changing from a barren hell to a palace that could be called sacred.
The black-haired boy's expression didn't change. He just raised his head and looked forward.
——There are six platinum-gold thrones there.
And on the holy throne, there were only a group of human-like figures, looking down at him condescendingly.
The human-shaped halo in the middle spoke in a friendly manner:
"Su Xingyuan, welcome. We have been waiting for you here for a long time."
The black-haired boy tilted his head slightly and did not respond to the other person's words. He just said with a slightly exaggerated expression: "Perhaps I should express my surprise?"
Without waiting for anyone to answer, his eyes fell on the second holy throne from the left with the shield and sword symbol, and he asked directly: "Are you the guardian?"
The humanoid halo representing the guardian goddess nodded and said gently, "I'm glad you recognized me."
The black-haired boy curved his lips in a smile.
"I am glad too."
The next moment, the black-haired boy suddenly drew his knife!
The silver sword in his hand was like a flash of lightning. In just a moment, the lightning-like sword light leaped in front of the guardian goddess!
"clang--"
A hard shield suddenly appeared at this moment, blocking the sword swung by Su Xingyuan.
"What are you doing?" The guardian goddess said in surprise: "I am not your enemy, and my shield is indestructible. It represents the ultimate protection."
Su Xingyuan blinked and spread his hands: "I just want to see if the guardian will get angry when faced with such an offense."
Guardian Goddess: "...I will be angry. Please don't do this next time."
The black-haired boy still had a smile on his face. He said, "But you can't fight back. What's the point of getting angry?"
“…”
The guardian goddess looked at the glaring "happy face" and said helplessly, "I understand. You want to blame me for only teaching the people I helped how to defend, but not how to attack; for giving them a solid wall to protect themselves, but still unable to resist the invasion of monsters... I'm sorry about this, this is not my intention."
Su Xingyuan: "I understand."
He seemed to be bored and stopped smiling. He returned to a very calm state and asked, "So, you asked me to come here. Is there something you want to discuss?"
The halos on the six holy thrones looked at each other.
One of them said, “I think you’ve understood that [the game] isn’t really a game.”
Another said: "Customer Service is a strand of consciousness that we specially selected to screen qualified saviors, and you have successfully passed the trial and selection and received a very high score."
The guardian goddess continued their words and said: "You are the chosen savior to save these two worlds, child. We believe that your heart will not change."
The two at the top nodded.
"After you successfully defeat the monsters, save the world, and clear everything up, we will prepare an equal throne for you, and you will become the Seventh God standing shoulder to shoulder with us."
The black-haired boy smiled and said, "So you are gods?"
"Of course." said the winged god.
Su Xingyuan leaned back slightly and changed to a more comfortable posture: "But why would God rely on a human to save the world? This shouldn't be my job."
The whole space suddenly became silent for a moment.
The gods on the throne looked at each other.
It was obvious that Su Xingyuan was not like the humans they thought he was, who would be respectful when hearing the word "God" and would be ecstatic when hearing that he had the hope of becoming a god.
He looks out of tune, but he is actually very calm.
It is a great blessing that the Savior has such a talent.
perhaps……
Not so good either.
The Guardian Goddess said, "Actually, this is very simple. When you were doing the job transfer mission, you should have discovered that beings like us cannot cross the world barrier and directly interfere with humans. The human world that has already taken shape has its own set of laws, and only humans themselves can save themselves."
"So, we can only find another way and support a savior with sufficient ability. The [game] we jointly created is actually to enable the savior of mankind to be more motivated to improve his strength."
The winged god said, "It is also to reduce the pressure on the savior. But you can rest assured that we will always support you. The six of us have our own authority, and my blessing can bring the dead back to life."
He sighed, "Unfortunately, after just one large-scale use, the world barrier classified it as an invasion. I need to use the next power at a more critical time. I hope you understand."
"As for why we didn't communicate with you before... before your strength reaches a certain level, our rash contact with you may have a certain impact on you. You are a smart child and should understand what we mean."
Su Xingyuan said: "Of course, I completely understand."
"only……"
The six gods seemed to be listening.
However, at this moment, the connection was suddenly disconnected.
Su Xingyuan's consciousness returned to his body. The figure who had been talking with the gods in the palace also stopped talking and moving instantly. Only the expression he showed at the last moment seemed as if he was in deep thought.
In reality, he opened his eyes, with no expression on his face.
The pop-up window that did not appear immediately before due to his distracted consciousness now appeared in front of him.

Su Xingyuan just took a glance and then looked away.
"Lawyer Gao, have you ever encountered a situation where the other party sent a message like 'and...' and then went to sleep during an online chat at night?"
The black-haired boy tilted his head and asked in a lighthearted tone.
Lawyer Gao said expressionlessly: "I have encountered this before. It is very annoying."
She was waiting there rigorously for the next instruction or conversation, but the person opposite her was fast asleep, leaving her alone to stay up all night in despair. The next day, she took her special weapon umbrella and stabbed the man into the ICU.
Hearing this, Su Xingyuan said cheerfully: "Very good, this is exactly the effect we want."
Lawyer Gao looked at him suspiciously: "Who are you trying to trick again? - Forget it, I don't want to know."
She didn't want to encounter mental pollution. The most effective way to deal with people like Su Xingyuan was to not listen to anything he said unless it was necessary.
Su Xingyuan shut up with great regret.
He looked out the window, and just then, two clouds that looked quite similar to the six gods he had just seen caught his eye.
Su Xingyuan took a look with interest, recalling everything that happened after his career upgrade.
The black-haired boy's expression didn't change at all, he still had a smile on his face, and no one would have guessed that what he was thinking was, "I'm desperate about this world. Do I really look as gullible as I do? This is the other person's problem."
And "What a coincidence, I also think it would be a waste not to take advantage of the situation."
——In the unstable time before his consciousness was withdrawn, he clearly saw the bright blood red above the heads of several friendly gods.
