The only player in the Marvel universe

Chapter 162 You're clearly a promising candidate with dark attributes.

"Blade, why are you dawdling?"

Du Mu waited in the passage for quite a while before he saw Daofeng catching up with heavy steps.

Blade's face was ashen, and he remained silent.

He had emptied his wallet of all the cash but still couldn't scrape together two thousand dollars. In the end, he had to pawn a few of his valuables to the bartender to barely pay the bill.

This made matters worse for his already struggling family.

Seeing that Daofeng had no intention of answering, Du Mu did not press further, assuming that the other party was not good at drinking.

"Follow me, I've found the entrance."

He led the blade to the end of the passage, where several unconscious security personnel lay on the ground. They were ordinary people, clearly his doing.

Du Mu wouldn't care about any staged accidents.

You should know that he is one of the most loyal employees of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra, and the top agent of Hydra!

Who would dare to stage an accident for him? Who would dare to open his box?
If anyone dared to open the box and put it on his head, they'd probably be invited to the S.H.I.E.L.D. for a chat that very day.

Besides, he's even beaten up Nick Fury, the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and not long ago he beat up Strucker, the controller of Hydra's European forces. What are a few ordinary people compared to him?

At the end of the passage was an iron gate. Du Mu took out his master key and easily opened it, revealing a staircase leading downwards.

The two walked down the stairs to the underground level, where a huge underground space gradually unfolded before their eyes.

This place resembles a fully equipped underground factory, but it is surprisingly quiet. Many vacuum-sealed chambers are neatly arranged, but the doors are all open, and the interiors are empty.

The battle-hardened Blade quickly sensed that something was wrong.

"Watch out! It's a trap!"

As soon as the words were spoken, several strange figures fell from the shadows of the ceiling, heading straight for the two of them!

Du Mu and Daofeng reacted extremely quickly, immediately dodging to the side.

With the help of the dim light, they were able to make out the appearance of the attackers.

These strange figures had skeletal frames, their bodies were sickly pale, and their hands had mutated into huge suction cup-like organs.

Their mouths are even more terrifying, with the entire lower jaw split in two, revealing an oral cavity filled with spiraling sharp teeth, creating a visually striking effect.

Du Mu raised an eyebrow: "This little rascal is quite something."

Before they could think any further, one of the monsters pounced, its gaping maw swirling with a foul stench, aimed straight at their faces!
Despite the danger, Daofeng remained calm and swiftly drew his silver longsword, drawing a cold arc as it slashed towards the monster's neck!
The silver longsword easily sliced ​​through the monster's flesh, almost severing most of its neck!

However, something unexpected happened.

Unlike ordinary vampires, this monster did not instantly burn to ashes when damaged by silver; instead, it stood there as if nothing had happened.

The horrifying wound on its neck writhed violently, healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the blink of an eye, it was back to normal.

"Damn it, it really is the Reaper!"

Blade's expression turned extremely ugly, clearly recognizing the monsters.

"What is a harvester?" Du Mu asked, not understanding.

Blade spoke rapidly: "The Reapers are genetically modified vampire variants. They have stronger physical attributes than ordinary vampires, possess extremely strong regenerative abilities, and are immune to all vampire weaknesses except sunlight."

"The most terrifying thing is that they not only suck human blood, but also feed on vampires. Whether it is a human or a vampire, once bitten by them, they will be transformed into one of their own kind in a short period of time."

Du Mu was shocked. Wasn't this just a vampire version of a zombie?
Moreover, this ability sounds so familiar. Apart from not being immune to sunlight, it's practically no different from the ability of the Blood God, even their tastes are just as unique. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them a bunch of little Faiths.

Blade's voice grew increasingly solemn: "I only recently noticed the existence of these monsters, and I didn't expect them to have grown to such a scale. There must be someone deliberately cultivating them behind the scenes."

"Hi ha——!"

Just then, the harvested horde let out a piercing howl and surged in from all directions!
Without hesitation, Du Mu drew his Golden Desert Eagle and pulled the trigger repeatedly!

boom! boom! boom! boom--!
The gun spat fire, and the head of the reaper at the forefront exploded, his body bursting into flames and turning to ashes.

Clearly, Du Mu's energy still has a restraining effect on these dark creatures.

But the reapers seemed fearless, stepping over the remains of their companions and charging recklessly toward Du Mu.

One of them lunged forward and bit down hard on his neck with its gaping maw!
Muay Thai warning!

Du Mu instinctively retaliated, delivering a fierce elbow strike to the face of the onrushing reaper.

Bang! !

The dull thud echoed through the factory!

Under Du Mu's elbow strike, the reaper's face instantly caved in and deformed, and its entire body flew backward as if struck by a heavy hammer, knocking over three or four of its kind behind it before finally crashing heavily into the wall with a loud thud.

The wall was cracked with spiderweb-like patterns, and the reaper was almost embedded in it.

Its head was mostly collapsed, its facial features were twisted and shriveled, and various unidentified liquids kept seeping from its nostrils, eyes and ears, making it look horribly gruesome.

Du Mu's strength attribute exceeding 100 is not something that ordinary people can withstand. Even though these harvesters' physical strength far exceeds that of vampires, they still find it difficult to resist his power.

This horrifying scene caused the other harvesters to pause for a moment.

Is this some kind of poet?
"It seems you do have some wisdom after all."

Seeing the harvesters' reaction, Du Mu slowly grinned and said, "Keep going. Don't pity me just because I'm a delicate flower."

The harvesters: "."

After a brief pause, the harvesters pounced on Du Mu again.

Du Mu simply put away his Golden Desert Eagle and charged into the area with the highest density of Reapers, engaging them in close combat. The Muay Thai warning skill was almost non-stop, directly elbowing them for four quarters of the match!
If you're going to elbow me, then elbow me!

You have it, he has it, you have everything!
Under Du Mu's elbow strike, the harvesters around him were sent flying backward like cannonballs.

However, a pure elbow strike wouldn't really harm these reapers, so Du Mu cast a protective spell on himself, enveloping his entire body in a shield of light attributes.

Although it's called a protective shield, it actually has a certain degree of destructive power.

Just like Tony's Iron Man armor, when his energy is low, he often uses his iron fists with several tons of force to engage in close combat, and he even practices Wing Chun, which he does with great skill.

With the full enchantment of the protective spell, every elbow strike from Du Mu gained the blessing of light attribute. Coupled with his strength attribute of over 100, he was practically a humanoid hundred-ton king to the Reaper, a dark creature.

One elbow strike, and the person flies away, then they can prepare to be reincarnated.

After being knocked away by the elbows imbued with the power of light, the Reapers had no chance to heal themselves; their entire bodies were gradually burned to ashes, leaving not a trace.

More than a harvester, Du Mu is the real harvester!
On the other hand, Blade's situation was much more difficult. His silver longsword was almost smoking from being swung around, but the number of Reapers around him not only did not decrease, but actually increased.

Blade doesn't have Du Mu's abilities. Without effective means of defeating the enemy, every attack he makes seems less effective. No matter how much damage he deals, the Reapers can quickly recover from their injuries and continue fighting.

As time passed, Blade's stamina rapidly declined, his breathing became heavy, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

However, the worst part is that these Reapers seem to be endless. A continuous stream of Reapers swarms in from every corner of this blood factory, densely packed and frantically squeezing the limited space around them.

There are just too many of them! We can't possibly kill them all!

Blade once again swung his sword, forcing back the two Reapers in front of him, and took the opportunity to shout in Du Mu's direction, his voice revealing an undisguised weariness.

Come this way.

Du Mu cleared a small area with a punch and responded loudly.

Blade didn't know what he was going to do, but he still obediently moved closer.

His movement seemed to create the center of a vortex.

The harvesters, who had been scattered and surrounding the target, rushed in from all directions as soon as they saw the two targets meet, and the encirclement rapidly tightened.

Within their field of vision, there were countless reapers, ready to engulf the two of them in an instant.

Just then, Du Mu conjured a dazzling magic sword in his hand and suddenly raised it high above his head.

"Illumination!"

In an instant, the magic sword burst forth with an intense, blinding light, erupting in Du Mu's hand!
The light was like a miniature sun suddenly rising in this dark factory, instantly engulfing every inch of space with him at its center.

Wherever the light touched, darkness had nowhere to hide, and the entire factory was illuminated as bright as day, with every corner exposed to this sacred radiance.

“His ...

The most agonizing screams instantly filled the air!
All the harvesters directly exposed to this light felt as if they had been doused with concentrated sulfuric acid, and thick smoke immediately billowed from their bodies!

Bathed in this light filled with luminous power, the Reapers seemed to encounter real sunlight, their bodies sizzling and burning as they spontaneously combusted into tiny fireballs.

The monster that was roaring ferociously just a moment ago has turned into black ashes flying everywhere!

The light lasted for several seconds before gradually fading away.

When visibility returned, the area within a radius of several meters centered on the two individuals was completely empty.

The once impenetrable encirclement is now reduced to a thick layer of ash on the ground, with no trace of the Reapers remaining.

Seeing this, Blade's eyes widened in surprise.

The Reapers that he had just been struggling against were all wiped out by Du Mu with a single AOE attack.

He couldn't help but ask, "Are all the clergy in your church as strong as you?"

Blade didn't believe Du Mu was a member of the church; given his awful character, how could he possibly be one?

Even if it is, it's an undercover agent sent by Satan!

But now that he's seen this scene, he has no choice but to believe it.

He couldn't think of any other reason why a single beam of light could so easily wipe out this group of harvesters except for the legendary holy light.

Blade was conflicted. Should he write an anonymous whistleblower letter and have the church where Du Mu worked investigate internal misconduct? Maybe they could uncover Du Mu, the suspected mole.

Of course, it is also possible to identify the priest who performed the exorcism on the little boy.

Du Mu, unaware of Dao Feng's deep thoughts, cheerfully replied, "I'm just a newbie in the church. There are plenty of people more skilled than me, especially the high-ranking clergy. Their exorcism techniques are far superior to mine."

Blade asked curiously, "Could it be that they have an ability even more powerful than your light?"

"Oh no, those are all evil heretics. Powerful clergy usually use missiles to exorcise demons while piloting mechs. I'm only at the pistol level right now, far less powerful than mech-level clergy."

Blade: "???"

Wait, isn't your church's exorcism method a bit too hardcore?!
Is this ranking system really reasonable?

Despite Blade's doubts, the pure and blazing holy light in Du Mu's hand was a real and undeniable power.

Blade coughed a few times and asked in a low voice, "Can others learn your abilities?"

Blade, who often fought against dark creatures, greatly envied Du Mu's abilities.

A single holy light is more effective than him working hard for half a day.

Most importantly, this holy light looks very economical; it can even save money on weapons and ammunition.

Du Mu nodded: "Of course, but you need to have a certain talent to even get started."

He wasn't just making things up.

Protective magic is one of the spells of Kamar-Taj, and not just anyone can learn it. Without magical talent, no matter how much you practice, it's all for nothing.

Blade asked hesitantly, "Do you think I have this talent?"

Du Mu carefully examined the blade, then shook his head: "My skill belongs to the light attribute, which is not suitable for you to learn. You are clearly a good seedling of the dark attribute."

Blade: "."

The two did not leave the blood factory immediately.

According to the minimap, Du Mu found many of the harvesters who had been missed deep inside the factory.

He immediately activated his protective spell, using his elbow to kill them all, thus preventing the creation of a Reaper universe similar to the zombie universe.

Other servers don't matter, this is his main server.

In Du Mu's view, the entire server belongs to the players, so he naturally has to protect his server to prevent the game from becoming completely unplayable due to corrupted save files.

After clearing out the blood factory, the two immediately headed to their next destination marked on the map.

To their surprise, the subsequent operation went exceptionally smoothly.

They had assumed that after suffering such a heavy blow, the Eternal Night Organization would intensify its efforts by setting up even more dangerous traps or sending out more guards.

However, apart from the previous massive wave of harvesters, they encountered no further significant resistance, and the remaining blood factories were far less fortified, almost returning to their original levels.

Du Mu didn't even need to lift a finger; his blade alone could easily destroy an entire blood factory.

The Eternal Night Organization seemed to have suddenly given up the struggle, showing indifference to the successive destruction of its important strongholds, and appearing to be completely abandoning itself and giving up.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!
