Warning! The evil god's minions are invading the eerie dungeon.

An eerie silence fell over the two groups of people, with only a slight night breeze whistling past their ears.

Qi Xie blinked earnestly.

The four people opposite blinked.

After a long pause, the girl gave two dry laughs:

"Um...you're really funny..."

Qi Xie remained silent, stroking the axe handle.

A faint smell of gunpowder gradually filled the air.

A chill ran down the spines of all four of them, for at that moment they all realized something terrifying:

This guy on the other end seems serious...

Don't worry.

Qi Xie swung his blood axe twice, creating a whooshing sound as it cut through the air, a confident smile on his face:

"I'm a professional! I guarantee it won't hurt at all!"

Is that his mother's problem?!

Everyone was internally screaming, but their lips trembled and they couldn't utter a word.

Just as everyone was still unable to fully accept the current situation, suddenly!

The shadow, with its blood-red vertical eyes wide open, suddenly spread out towards the feet of the crowd, threatening to sink and imprison them.

Qi Xie made his move!

He really wants to kill them all!

will die!

The moment this thought arose, an immense sense of oppression overwhelmed everyone like a tangible tidal wave, leaving them frozen in place, almost unable to move.

Whoosh—!

Just then!

A figure suddenly burst out from among the four people, flying backward before the shadow covered their feet.

However, almost instantly, Qi Xie, who had been poised to attack, turned into a blur on the spot.

The next second, the huge blood axe cleaved directly at the back of the figure's head, slamming the axe and the man into the ground.

boom! ! !

Stone fragments flew everywhere, and the three people who remained huddled together, staring at Qi Xie in terror.

The man who tried to escape had his head split in two by a sharp axe.

If this were a human being, it would be dead beyond dead.

In other words, Qi Xie may have just killed one of their companions, and statistically speaking, the possibility is quite high.

However, Qi Xie merely glanced down at the axe, raised an eyebrow, and shifted his tone:

"Wow? You're really going all out? You're even dressing up as a girl?"

Beneath the axe, the figure cleaved open was the only girl among the four. Her body was twitching slightly, her eyes were lifeless, and her mouth was slightly open, with blood mixed with yellowish-white substances flowing from her cleaved head.

It looks like it's dead no matter how you look at it.

But Qi Xie simply leaned on his blood axe and calmly looked at the girl:

Stop pretending.

The body remained motionless and unresponsive.

The three people, huddled together, trembled and stared at Qi Xie with chattering teeth.

"Xiao Ying...he killed Xiao Ying..."

"We're all going to die here..."

"But...but that guy seems really sure he didn't make a mistake..."

The moment this voice rang out, it was immediately refuted:

"Do you think he'd admit he'd cut the wrong person?"

"He just made a mistake and didn't care at all! Human lives are completely unimportant to him!"

"This madman who disregards human life..."

Qi Xie ignored the conversation and simply drew his blood axe, staring silently at the girl.

The body remained motionless.

Qi Xie blinked, and the next second he swung the blood axe hard and smashed it down on the corpse's crotch.

Whoosh!!

The corpse sprang to its feet with astonishing speed, dodging the attack.

Qi Xie smiled and looked up:

"Oh? Why did you stop pretending?"

The corpse stood before him, clutching its groin, its face still showing shock, gritting its teeth as it spoke to Qi Xie:

"Are you even human?! Would a normal person think of using this kind of trick against a monster? Even Ultraman would have to dodge this!"

As it spoke, a rustling sound came from its body, and it shook off countless pieces of paper, revealing its true form hidden beneath the disguise—it was the Midnight Student Ghost!

The three people next to them stared in disbelief at the scene. Two of them instinctively covered their groins, feeling a dull pain in their testicles.

As for the one who didn't have any, countless small pieces of paper fell from her body, quickly revealing her fair and delicate skin. She was Xiao Ying, the girl in the trio.

Qi Xie casually tossed the blood axe over his shoulder and said with practiced ease:

"When a living creature is transformed into a monster, it will retain some of its instincts from its previous life. These instincts will gradually fade away over time as the monster's contamination deepens."

He still remembers encountering an old Qing Dynasty zombie in an old grave before he received the blessing, and how he beat it to a pulp.

Then he accidentally swore "fuck".

The old Qing Dynasty zombie's legs went weak on the spot, and he knelt down and kowtowed twice to him.

So Qi Xie racked his brains and poured out all the English he knew, while pulling out a chainsaw to saw the zombie into pieces and feed them to the evil god. He then complained bitterly, and only then did he receive his first "gift," which was the [Blood Axe of the Dismemberer].

The student ghost stared blankly at Qi Xie, not understanding why the other party knew so much about the supernatural.

He paused for a long time before saying:

"That doesn't make sense either. What if this instinct has disappeared? Are you so sure about this protective instinct... is it that important?"

Did you know that groin protectors were used in human cricket matches as early as 1874, but helmets didn't start being used until 1974?

Qi Xie gripped the blood axe and said solemnly:

"It took men a whole hundred years to realize that big heads are actually quite important."

Student ghost:......

"If there are no further questions, let's get going..."

Qi Xie spoke calmly.

But before he could finish speaking...

Black mist burst forth from the student ghost's body, attempting to use the same trick again to escape under the cover of the black mist.

Qi Xie wouldn't fall for the same trick twice.

Before the black mist could explode, the sharp blood axe cleaved through the flying scraps of paper and struck the student ghost directly. The immense force caused the axe blade to tear through its body and knock it down, pinning it to the ground.

Pfft—!

The student ghost groaned as it was severely injured, spitting out a mouthful of black blood-like substance. But upon closer inspection, it was revealed to be nothing but paper ash, like burnt books or exam papers.

The next second, Qi Xie stomped heavily on the student ghost with one foot, looking down at it.

"Please... let me go..."

The student ghost was completely out of options, and begged for mercy in a trembling voice:

"I haven't killed anyone, not a single person. Those I attacked... are all asleep..."

Qi Xie stared at the student ghost quietly, his eyes as still as a deep well.

The student ghost finally broke down completely, raising his head and roaring:

"I don't want to become like this!!! I don't want to look like this!!! But what can I do!!!"

"My parents have such high expectations for me, they've pinned everything on me, and they told me that they're counting on me for the future!!!"

"I've been studying like crazy, cutting out social life and entertainment, making myself feel completely out of sorts! All I want is to meet their expectations!"

"Every time they're not satisfied, they tell me to keep trying, so I keep working incredibly hard!"

"I've tried my best... I really have tried my best..."

The student's voice was hoarse, tinged with a heavy sob:

"But...why has no one ever praised me, not even just once...?"

"I'm so tired..."
