Welcome to the Bizarre Games

Chapter 337 So far
pay close attention?

You make it sound so easy.

Zhou You, carrying Tao Le'an on one arm and clutching the talisman in the other, roared.

"Sorry, I'm busy playing whack-a-mole right now, I really don't have time."

What does "." mean?

"It means I'm that mole, getting fucking beaten up!"

One of the tentacles slammed down, actually smashing a crack in the earth.

Of course, if it were just random, haphazard smashing, even if it could produce a miracle, Zhou You could still withstand it. The problem was that every time the tentacle slammed down, even the soil was affected. The originally hard ground was now like a swamp, making even running extremely difficult.

Looking at the mountain of flesh, layer upon layer, completely built up by the growths, Tao Le'an seemed to have thought of something and suddenly spoke.

"Sect Leader He, how many of your twelve beasts are left?"

"Four? What's wrong?"

"That should be enough. Can it be used to assemble the secret Dongyuan Summoning Divine Treasure Talisman of your Maoshan sect?"

"No, how come your Evil Suppression Division even knows this? — Fine, we can arrange it. If all else fails, I'll sacrifice this unscrupulous merchant. What's wrong with that?"

Ignoring the wailing of Fatty Xun, Tao Le'an spoke to Zhou You again.

"Master, I have a method, but I'm afraid it involves some risks. I just don't know if you can agree to it."

As Zhou You dodged something that swept towards him, he spoke in a low voice.

"Could you take any greater risks than you are now? Just tell me what you want to do!"

“It’s simple. We can’t afford to delay any longer. Let’s try one last gamble. Headmaster He and I will hold that thing back while you, Daoist, find out where the fleshy pillar is. Then we’ll make one last push to buy you time to draw your bow. Is that alright?”

Do you still need to ask?

Zhou You answered with action. He found a patch of land that hadn't yet mutated, threw the kid onto it, then bent down and dashed off in the blink of an eye—

Seven or eight tentacles immediately slammed down, but Tao Le'an stuffed the blood talisman into his mouth, then bit his fingertip and drew a talisman in mid-air.

The talisman transformed into two points of clear light, one protecting Zhou You, while the other slashed open a gap in the air.

Peeking through the crack, one could vaguely see Sect Leader He frantically rummaging through his pack for magical artifacts; while in the sky, the figures of four giant beasts appeared indistinctly before fiercely pouncing on the mountain of flesh.

The plague-eating beasts were already covered in wounds, many even missing most of their limbs, but with their reckless fighting spirit, the flesh mountain could only gather most of its tentacles to return to the rescue—which naturally gave Zhou You an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

With Tao Le'an unleashing all his potential through his talismanic power, Zhou You felt as if he had no weight—no, it shouldn't be "as if." At this moment, even if his toes just touched the ground, his body seemed to be flying through the air. After narrowly dodging several tentacles, he took a few quick steps and climbed onto the mountain of flesh.

But this doesn't mean we can catch our breath.

Suddenly, thousands of eyes opened on the mountain of flesh, countless tentacles grew from it, and the tumors on it began to break apart in pieces. Those filthy and bizarre creatures struggled to crawl out from within them. Everything was praising it in unison, and everything had only one goal.

That means eliminating Zhou You!
—Damn it, do you really think I'm some kind of little Camilla, someone you can just kill whenever you want?

Without hesitation or delay, Zhou You unleashed all the evil energy within the sword, causing it to groan under the strain. However, he paid no heed to that and with a leap, the evil energy dissipated like mist.

A blood mist filled the air, far larger than ever before, its deep crimson color permeating the surroundings—yet devoid of any malevolent energy. After the mist swept away, only dismembered limbs and corpses remained, littering the ground!
With a single step, a corpse composed of countless monsters descended from the sky. Zhou You had no choice but to retreat. The sharpness on Duan Xie condensed into a single point, and then exploded instantly.

A huge hole burst open in the middle of the corpse, and the massive body crashed to the ground. Immediately, a tall, thin figure darted out, using the corpse as cover, and a pair of menacing claws swiftly slashed towards Zhou You's throat.

But the next moment, Zhou You revealed the truth.

"Om!"

The monkey-like thing paused for less than a moment before leaping into the air again, but just as it was about to touch the body, the sword tip bloomed like a plum blossom.

With a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, it slashed several times, cutting down that thing while simultaneously slicing open the heads of several other beings nearby.

More things came up, but Zhou You only adhered to one principle.

No matter which way you come, I'll only go that way!

If someone were to look down from above at this moment, they would see a straight, blood-red line appear on top of this mountain of flesh.

The sword was already at its fastest speed, mingling with the mist, and charging forward relentlessly.

And in Zhou You's full-force use of the Jing Shen Bait Song, the core location was finally discovered.

With the blessing of Tao Le'an's talisman and the cover of those beasts sacrificing their lives, Zhou You finally stepped over countless corpses and fought his way to the past.

Flying claws slashed across the body, sharp teeth tore through the skin, flying bone spikes pierced blood vessels, and splattered viscous fluid corroded the muscles.
Zhou You's expression remained unchanged throughout.

The fleshy pillar was already close at hand, and Tao Le'an's blessing was nearing its end. A wriggling deformity blocked his way, and Zhou You subconsciously slashed out with his longsword.

However, they failed to penetrate the defenses.

It's not that the thing is as hard as steel, but rather that there's a problem with the sword itself.

In the midst of this continuous fighting, the invincible Duan Xie was actually dulled by the brutal killing!

The sword's edge was embedded in the monster's bones, yet it could not advance an inch further.

Zhou You was decisive; he released his sword, kicked the thing away, then summoned the Moon-Severing Bow, using moonlight as an arrow to pierce its body in an instant.

Then, Duanxie was reconnected, and the murderous aura he had unleashed along the way was poured into it recklessly, finally managing to barely mend the damage.

Although there are still significant internal problems, we can't worry about that now.

The longsword rose and fell, its blade becoming one with the wind—at the same time, Tao Le'an summoned heavenly lightning again, the rolling thunder temporarily forcing back the surrounding enemies.

Despite being covered in wounds, Zhou You finally made it through.

But it was also at this very moment.

He suddenly felt a pain in his chest.

He could faintly hear Headmaster He's panicked shouts. Zhou You looked down and saw Xie Anming's face, which was turning into ashes but still smiling, along with a long, black needle.

—It plunged straight into his own heart.
