Chapter 471 God of Tides [I]

This shadow roamed the streets and alleys like this, running fast along the mottled city walls. It was extremely secretive in the dim and lightless sky and could not be detected by the naked eye.

Even if ordinary people find out, they will just think they are dazzled.

No one would think that a passing shadow could be a living thing.

This shadow is no one else.

It was Hu Qi.

Although he didn't kill Dick.

But there is a professional who has taken the 'Shadow' path from another professional.

Nature can also escape into the shadows.

After all, this ability in this career path is very useful in Hu Qi's opinion. It is simply an essential skill for robbery and sneak attacks.

Although the area where he lived was not close to the Church of Poseidon.

But with the help of the power of shadows, he soon arrived outside the Church of Poseidon.

Look up at the Church of Poseidon in front of you.

The spirituality around it is rich.

And mixed with a hint of water vapor.

The church occupies a large area.

It is as big as two or three football fields.

This is not even the headquarters of the Church of Poseidon.

It's just a branch religion.

Moreover, there are no buildings within one kilometer around this area.

But this is not what Hu Qi cares about.

But something else.

now.

In his vision, the Church of Poseidon, which was supposed to be a place for worshipping gods, was shrouded in a haze that was invisible to the naked eye.

Countless twisted and illusory human figures were entwined around the church like vines. Sometimes they condensed into shape, sometimes dissipated like smoke, or coiled and climbed like elongated thin snakes.

There was a look of horror frozen on those faces.

It was as if he had suffered unimaginable pain before dying.

Rather than being a spirit, it is more like a body of resentment of dead living beings, a freeze frame of countless moments of despair.

These aggregates of resentment do not exist in the material world, but rather reside in the interlayer of the spiritual world of this world.

It is simply impossible to capture with the naked eye.

If he hadn't killed a professional before and seized the other party's 'medium' channel for employment.

With the help of the ability of Sequence Nine 'Spirit Seer'.

Even with the special vision of the Eye of the Tempered Blade, it was impossible to see the full picture.

And each of these phantoms was pierced by rusty chains extending from the ground.

Like a specimen nailed to an invisible cross, it can only move within a certain range.

It is impossible to leave the Church of Poseidon.

This forms an absurd contrast with the sacred and solemn appearance of the Church of Poseidon.

However, Hu Qi was not too surprised by this.

After exploring the professional circle for some time, Hu Qi had long seen through the gorgeous packaging of the so-called Seven Gods Faith.

Behind the hymns sung devoutly by ordinary believers lies a chilling truth.

The so-called seven righteous gods are essentially just a few relatively mild ones among many unknown transcendent beings.

These churches themselves follow the path passed down by these seven gods.

For the Seven Gods.

They don't need the power of faith at all. Those towering churches, complicated rituals, and fanatical prayers.

All of this, in the eyes of these "gods", is nothing more than a spontaneous flattering performance by a group of ants.

If it is happy, it may cast a ray of grace, just like a human observing a group of ants.

When you are happy, you may drop a grain of rice, but when you are unhappy, you may just step on it to death.

I don't care what the ants do or what they are called.

Humans always love to name celestial bodies in the vast starry sky.

If the stars really had intelligence and knew what tiny humans do, they would probably laugh to death.

Hu Qi himself is a true god, so he naturally knows this mentality very well.

This cannot be said to be right or wrong, it’s just a different standpoint and the gap in life levels is too big.

Compare with evil gods and the cruelty of some unknown existence.

The priests of Poseidon never kill people directly for their rituals.

All they have to do is move their fingers, pull the waves, and overturn the fishing boats.

The best sacrifice is the sigh of satisfaction coming from the deep sea.

The churches of the other six gods also have their own sacrificial practices.

But this method is very secretive.

Ordinary people can't even notice it.

It is precisely because of this behavior that the illusion of being a "true god" was created for the Seven Gods.

And in this.

Perhaps because he holds power over the sea, this sea god has the most erratic temper among the seven gods.

The church before us is proof of this.

After learning this.

Hu Qi couldn't help but feel strange.

The humans in this world are like food in a cage.

There are strange and terrifying existences all around.

If we are not careful, it may lead to the complete extinction of mankind.

But this is normal.

He has seen so much of the world along the way.

No matter where you are, it is the law of the jungle. Either you eat me or I eat you.

The strong can make the rules, and the weak just need to follow them.

"But I do like this. If it's really true love of beauty, it's really hard to do it!"

Hu Qi looked calm and walked forward.

His face gradually became distorted, his skin became rough and dark at a speed visible to the naked eye, his body also swelled, and his joints became thick and bulging.

In the blink of an eye, he had transformed into the fisherman that could be seen everywhere in Night Crow Harbor, with a rough look and a bit of vicissitudes.

"who?"

The guards on both sides of the church discovered the uninvited guest almost at the same time.

One of the guards frowned, glanced at Hu Qi with sharp eyes for a moment, and then waved his hand impatiently.

"Today's prayer time is over, come back tomorrow!"

Part of the Church of Poseidon is open to the public.

Specially for ordinary people to pray.

However, it is developed within a certain time every day.

Upon hearing this, Hu Qi did not stop.

See this scene.

The two guards frowned.

Also noticed something was wrong.

Just about to take action.

"Exactly thirty."

Hu Qi spoke.

--laugh!

A cold light flashed.

The two armored, Sequence Nine guards stiffened before they could even react.

Their eyes widened and they looked down at their armor in disbelief.

A thin line is slowly emerging.

——Crack.

The armor broke with a sound, and the body inside was neatly split into two.

The hot blood spurted out like a fountain, and the internal organs fell onto the white snow.

The hot blood melted the snow, creating wisps of scarlet mist.

Modified value +29 (6%)

Modified value +36 (18%)

Hu Qi has not been idle during these three days.

Because of the 'Treasure of the Mermaid King'.

This resulted in a huge increase in the number of professionals in Night Crow Port.

He killed more than twenty professionals in these three days, but it didn't cause much impact.

At this moment, including the killing of these two, the number reached thirty.

There are still seventy people short of killing a hundred people.

Ignored the two bodies.

He went straight to the door.

He appears here this time.

Harvesting professionals and completing the advancement ceremony of the Blood Swordsman are only secondary.

The most important thing is to check the internal information of the Church of Poseidon.

See if you can find any information about higher sequences.

After all, compared to competing with those high-level professionals for the mermaid treasure that is somewhere unknown.

It would be better to search in the Church of Poseidon.

If it were in the past, he would certainly not dare to do so.

After all, the path of the God Slayer is powerful.

But the sequence is too low.
Once they encounter high-level professionals, they are unable to cope with them.

But it's different now.

The most powerful priest among them has already left.

Naturally, he had no scruples.

however.

Just took a step forward.

His figure paused.

Then his body suddenly tensed up and he looked up at the two huge stone statues standing on both sides.

During this period, he also inquired about the information about the Church of Poseidon.

Know that the one on the left is called 'Lord of Raging Waves'.

He has a human head and a snake body, with muscular body, holding a huge axe in his hand and a majestic face.

The one on the right is called 'Mother of the Sea of ​​Tranquility', with long green hair like waves, her hands folded in front of her chest, and her eyebrows lowered.

Both as stone statues.

Logically speaking, it should be a dead object.

But the strange thing is that now in Hu Qi's perception, no matter from which angle he looks at it.

They will find that these two are watching them.

This look was full of malice.

next second.

A salty sea breeze mixed with snow particles blew in my face. The originally gray surface of the stone statue was strangely covered with a layer of slippery dark green algae, which glowed faintly under the reflection of the snow.

suddenly.

The statue moved.

They slowly turned their heads, and four cold gazes penetrated the falling snow and locked onto Hu Qi.

The long green hair of the 'Mother of the Sea of ​​Tranquility' surged like waves, dancing silently in the wind and snow.

She opened her eyes slightly, and Hu Qi's feet suddenly sank.

Look away.

The soles of his shoes and his legs were turning grayish-white at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Moreover, it is spreading towards the legs.

at the same time.

The 'Lord of Raging Waves' swung his snake tail, and the sea water surged behind him.

The giant axe in his hand was raised high, and a shadow cast down, bringing with it a bone-chilling chill, as it fell on his head!
However, facing this scene.

Hu Qi just sneered.

"Pretend to be a ghost!"

——Zheng!

The last word has not yet been uttered.

The sword rang out suddenly, like cracking ice and breaking snow.

Suddenly, a bright silver arc of light burst out in front of him, like a crescent moon breaking through the wind and snow.

——Wow!
It seemed like huge waves were hitting the shore, or like the ice was breaking.

Hu Qi's eyes blurred.

The wind and snow continued, but the stone statue had returned to its original state.

However, large, mottled cracks appeared on the surface of the two stone statues.

The feeling of being spied on just now also disappeared without a trace.

He glanced at his legs and saw that they had recovered as before.

"Mysterious item?"

A strange look appeared on Hu Qi's face.

The combined power of these two stone statues.

It is enough to easily kill any Sequence 8 professional in seconds.

It can even threaten Sequence Seven.

Once you can't get out of that illusion.

Then the outer body will also truly die.

However, this was completely ineffective for Hu Qi.

Not to mention the essence of His true God.

The Sequence 8 Wanzhan disciples alone possess the characteristics of destroying demons.

Just one sword was enough to break it.

Subsequently.

Hu Qi entered the Church of Poseidon.

However, we didn’t go far.

"who are you?"

Several believers who came over after hearing the noise looked at Hu Qi with a slightly cold expression.

When water vapor rises from your body, it's time to attack.

In this regard.

Hu Qi said nothing, stepped on the ground, and his figure turned into an afterimage. In an instant, he rushed directly into the group of believers.

The sword light flashed.

These believers who were alive and kicking just now turned into bloody pieces of flesh on the ground.

Click!

A blue-clad cultist had his neck twisted by Hu Qi and was thrown to the ground at random.

Hu Qi used the Heaven-stealing Technique to obtain the information he wanted from these believers.

Rushing towards somewhere.

Finding books to read is too slow.

God knows when the priest will come back.

What he needs is a quick victory.

It is more convenient to use the Heaven-stealing Technique to take away the memory directly.

Passed along the way.

All the believers he encountered were killed by Hu Qi.

Soon, he found his target in a church.

This is a young woman with pale skin and green eyes.
Hu Qi learned this from the memories of those Tide Cult members.

She is the direct descendant of the priest of this Poseidon Church and the designated successor.

The strength has reached Sequence 7 'Siren'.

The moment their eyes met.

A cold light flashed in the woman's eyes, and she said nothing.

She raised her slender hand slightly, and the air around her instantly became sticky and moist.

--boom!

Three violent water tornadoes appeared out of nowhere, surrounding Hu Qi in a V-shape.

The water flow is mixed with sharp ice crystals, which make teeth-grinding screams as it spins rapidly.

What's even more terrifying is that a biting cold air is spreading along with the splashing water mist, as if it is going to freeze Hu Qi completely.

however.

next moment.

The three water tornadoes exploded directly and turned into sea water and fell down.

There was no time to react.

The woman felt a pain in her body.

The limbs fell off the body like building blocks.

Hu Qi's figure came directly in front of her.

He grabbed her neck.

In front of the God Slayer's demon-breaking characteristics.

This type of professional who takes the path of spellcaster is undoubtedly the easiest to deal with.

"No matter who you are, if you dare to kill my Lord's followers, my Lord will not let you go!"

The woman who turned into a human pig stared at Hu Qi.

In this regard.

Hu Qi didn't bother to pay attention.

Directly use the Heaven-stealing Technique.

However, considering that the other party is a believer of the sea god.

There’s no telling what hidden dangers the power in your body may have.

To be on the safe side, Hu Qi only took away the other party's memory.

It did not directly seize the opponent's extraordinary power.

moment.

A dried corpse was thrown on the ground.

Hu Qi left the place quickly without any delay.

Heading in another direction, towards the Governor's Palace.

……

At the same time.

outside world.

All the Tide Cultists hiding in the dark corners, damp alleys, abandoned warehouses, etc. of Night Crow Harbor suddenly looked up.

Their pupils suddenly contracted, then suddenly expanded, bloodshot eyes appeared on their cloudy whites, and the corners of their mouths formed crazy curves.

"It's my Lord... It's the great God of Tides calling!"

With hoarse roars, the believers drew their daggers without hesitation and slashed their wrists.

Blood gushed out, but strangely floated in the air, as if being pulled by an invisible tide, winding into twisted runes on the ground.

The sound of dripping blood gradually became synchronized with the frequency of the distant waves.

Low whispers echoed throughout Night Crow Harbor, and the patterns drawn in blood began to glow with a faint blue light, as if countless eyes had opened in the abyss.

The smell of the tide was suddenly so strong that it was suffocating.

It didn't take long.

A fisherman near the sea went out to relieve himself.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound was heard in the wind and snow coming closer and closer.

He looked up.

However, he just stood there in a daze.

After a while, he finally reacted.

All the blood color was lost in an instant.

A terrified scream then emanated from his mouth.

"Oh no! Run! The tsunami is coming!"

All I could see was the sea in the distance.

The sea water that had disappeared reappeared.

It no longer retreated, but instead began to emerge in a strange way.

On the horizon, it gradually appeared as a black line, accompanied by a low roar, like the roar of an ancient beast.

The black line was getting closer and higher, and finally turned into a huge wave hundreds of meters high, like a black wall, pressing towards Night Crow Port.

Wherever the huge waves passed, the air seemed to be torn apart, making a deafening roar.

Snowflakes danced in front of the waves and were swept high into the sky by violent air currents.

The wooden piles of the pier were like fragile matches in the face of the huge waves and were broken and swallowed up in an instant.

The anchored ships were thrown into the air, shattered into countless pieces by the waves.

The roof of the warehouse was blown off and the masonry walls collapsed under the impact of the water.

The huge waves rushed towards Night Crow Port mercilessly, and the narrow streets were instantly filled with sea water.

The sea water rushed into every door and window, carrying with it broken wood, ice and debris.

Countless people screamed.

However, what no one noticed was.

In these surging waves, there is a huge black shadow standing on the waves.

Looking down indifferently at the city below that was flooded by the sea.
