Death Train: SSS-level talent right from the start!

The next day.

early morning.

A few dozen people were scattered around the square, less than half the number when the trial had just begun.

Some people leaned against stone pillars, munching on compressed biscuits, while others closed their eyes, looked up at the sky, and stared blankly.

Chen Ye stood up from the stone steps and stretched his back. He had been lying on the hard stone slab for most of the night, and his back was stiff from the pressure.

He glanced around the square and saw that Gu Qinghuan was already awake, sitting on the stone steps, slowly adjusting her cuffs.

Zhao Hai squatted at the edge of the square, doing simple exercises with his fists on his knees. Wen Ning and Zhou Yating stood together, whispering something. Qin Zhaoyang was still leaning against the wall, his eyes closed and a trace of drool at the corner of his mouth.

"Zhaoyang"

Chen Ye called out.

Qin Zhaoyang jolted awake, springing up from the wall: "Huh? The trial has started?"

"Soon."

Just as Chen Ye finished speaking, seven pillars of light shot into the sky from the town. After the light dissipated, seven marks of evil floated in various parts of the town.

Chen Ye's gaze swept over the seven marks, finally landing on the Gluttony Marker shaped like a silver cup: "According to the plan, Hai Ge, the class monitor, and I will go to the Gluttony Trial. Gu Qinghuan, you take Wen Ning and Zhao Yang to the Lust Trial."

Gu Qinghuan stood up from the stone steps and nodded slightly: "Mm."

Qin Zhaoyang leaned closer: "Brother Ye, what's the mechanism of the Gluttony Trial again?"

"Gu Qinghuan said before that as long as there are no passengers with the Gluttony Mark in the team, it's a pure monster battle, similar to the Rage Trial. You have the Gluttony Mark, so you can't go. Stay with Gu Qinghuan."

"Alright."

Qin Zhaoyang scratched the back of his head and followed Gu Qinghuan and Wen Ning toward the direction of the rose-shaped cursor.

Zhao Hai and Zhou Yating walked to Chen Ye's side.

Without saying much, the three of them hurried toward the mark of the silver cup.

About ten minutes later, Chen Ye and his two companions arrived at the Gluttony Trial Castle.

The wooden door was open, and the stone wall above the doorway displayed "[3/10]".

Chen Ye stepped across the threshold, followed closely by Zhao Hai and Zhou Yating.

The moment I stepped across the threshold, my view suddenly opened up.

There were already three people standing in the hall.

These three were Chu Yang's team.

When Chu Yang saw Chen Ye enter, he nodded slightly as a greeting.

Liu Wei then led the three of them into the Gluttony Trial Hall.

He walked at the front, and as he entered, his gaze swept over Chen Ye and the other two, then glanced at Chu Yang.

The three people following him were two men and one woman, each with a mark of sin on their heads, but none of them had the mark of gluttony. After they came in, they consciously stood on the other side of the hall, keeping a distance of about the same distance from Chen Ye and Chu Yang's teams.

Chen Ye scanned the entire area and found that none of the ten people participating in this trial had entered with the Gluttony Mark, and all of them were powerful teams.

This trial should be easy to pass, but you can't rob the Proof of Sin, since the seven people on the other side are all powerful passengers on their train, so it's not advisable to make a move.

Once all ten people had arrived, the light screen above the hall jumped from [6/10] to [10/10].

Then lines of text appeared.

[Trial of Gluttony: Completion Condition - Defeat the Lord of Gluttony.]

As the text appeared, a huge outline was condensing and taking shape in the air on the ground directly in front of the hall.

First, it appears as a blurry shadow, then as a faint outline, and then, as if it has been infused with substance, it is layered, filled, and shaped.

A mountain of flesh slowly rose from the ground.

That thing was larger than any boss he had ever seen.

Its shape resembles a flattened mountain of flesh, and its height is estimated to be over ten meters.

Its body is covered with a dark red membrane, and the surface of the membrane is covered with countless mouths that are constantly opening and closing.

The mouths varied in size, with the largest exceeding one meter in diameter when open, filled with layers of sharp teeth, while the smallest was only the size of a fist, also covered with fine, pointed teeth.

Every mouth is chewing, with different rhythms and amplitudes.

Some were gnawing at the air, some were chewing on something unseen, and some were simply opening and closing incessantly, making dense and sticky sounds.

The sounds blended together, like someone dumping a whole bucket of wriggling maggots in the hall.

Liu Wei lowered his arms from his chest, letting his hands hang at his sides, and dark red arcs of electricity crackled and popped around his body.

"Let's begin. None of us ten have the Gluttony Mark. This is just a trial of monster hunting; there are no other mechanics."

Before Liu Wei could finish speaking, he had already launched himself forward from his spot.

He was incredibly fast, leaving only streaks of dark red electricity in the air. In the blink of an eye, he had covered dozens of meters and appeared directly in front of the mountain of flesh.

Chu Yang's body was engulfed in raging black flames, and his figure became somewhat blurred in the rising black flames, only his pupils remained clear.

He stood still, raising his right arm with his palm facing the Lord of Gluttony.

A black fireball quickly condensed in front of his palm, and in no time the fireball expanded to a diameter of one meter.

Chen Ye didn't rush ahead of the two. He turned his head and glanced at Zhao Hai: "Brother Hai, you stay here to protect the squad leader. You don't need to do anything."

Zhao Hai nodded slightly, then shielded Zhou Yating behind him and retreated to the wall.

Chen Ye flipped his hand, and the Dragon Scale Halberd appeared in his grasp. He pushed off the ground with his right leg, and his body shot out, cutting in from the right side of the mountain of flesh in an arc.

Liu Wei's attack arrived first; his fists, crackling with dark red arcs of electricity, slammed into the front of the mountain of flesh.

The fist slammed into the flesh membrane, creating a ring of electric arcs, and a dark red shockwave spread outwards.

The Gluttony Lord's massive body was blasted inward by this punch, its flesh membranes torn apart, and dark red juice spurted out from the cracks, emitting a pungent, fishy stench.

The enormous body took a half step back, and the ground trembled violently as it retreated.

Immediately afterwards, the huge black fireball in Chu Yang's palm shot out and crashed into the body of the Lord of Gluttony.

"boom--!"

The black fireball suddenly exploded, and the black flames quickly spread all over the Gluttony Lord's body, completely igniting him.

The intense heat caused the temperature in the entire hall to rise rapidly.

Liu Wei quickly distanced himself from the ignited Gluttony Lord, seemingly afraid of being touched by the black flames.

Chen Ye also stopped in his tracks. He no longer needed to take action; he could feel the intense heat of the black flames, which was no ordinary elemental fire.

The Lord of Gluttony let out a shrill scream and writhed wildly, but the black flames, like maggots clinging to bones, not only did not extinguish but burned even more fiercely.

Chen Ye glanced at Chu Yang and, sure enough, as the trial star level increased, more monstrous talents appeared. He estimated that Chu Yang alone could handle the Lord of Gluttony.

As expected, the Lord of Gluttony did not last long under the scorching black flames.

Even though the Lord of Gluttony had no breath left, the black flames continued to burn until they slowly extinguished after the corpse was completely incinerated.
