Chat group: People are in the sandbox, the system just ran away

The martial artist said, "How should I put it? In a world with stricter physical rules, the rules of fate become more sluggish. The so-called protagonist cannot create much momentum. When you reach a world with five digits, the power of the rules of fate gradually becomes apparent, and the requirements for defying fate become higher. Especially in a world like the God Slayer where fate reigns supreme, changing fate becomes even more difficult. In the past, I have usually personally stepped in to forcibly change the situation in such a world. If Luo Hao wants to do this, he doesn't have enough strength. After all, to defy fate in the God Slayer world, one must at least be strong enough to defeat the Last King, the strongest fighter of the God of Fate."

Changing the trends of a world isn't easy. After all, they're essentially driven by the world they're in. To change them, one must confront the powerful who uphold them. For example, in Type-Moon, if one wants to alter the course of human nature, one must confront the two great restraining forces: Alaya and Gaia. The same is true in other worlds: the Evil God D of Spider-Girl's world, the gods of the Sword Saint's world...

Luo Hao obviously does not have this ability. After all, if she cannot defeat the Last King, no matter what she thinks, it will be useless.

God of Wisdom: "That seems to be the case. It seems that changing one's fate is not that easy."

Li Xuan was speechless at Iwanaga Kotoko's sigh.

The martial artist said, "Isn't this natural? Changing one's fate is not that simple. Even with the help of some chat groups, it still requires careful development and preparation. Not everyone is as reckless as Luo Hao. If she can utilize the power of the chat group, develop things well, and plan carefully, then she might be able to change her fate."

God of Wisdom: "Master, you are really asking too much. After all, godslayers are fools. Asking them to think so much is too much."

The martial artist said, "I can only say that there must be something wrong with Pandora's reincarnation ritual. Otherwise, why would all the godslayers have mental problems? Even I have normal thinking and logic. And the godslayers, although they can be considered powerful in their own world, are not invincible. Why are they so arrogant and brainless?"

God Slayer, the Demon King on Earth, what a big title, but apart from those powers, there is not much worth praising about the God Slayers, and Li Xuan basically doesn't think much of them.

What Li Xuan truly admired in the Godslayer world weren't the so-called fools, the sons of Epimetheus, or the demon kings of the earth. Instead, it was the wise men, the ancient sages of humanity, who, in order to guard against those powerful and ancient primitive spirits, invented rituals called mythological rituals.

While the gods acquired names and myths, they were also unable to overstep their bounds. Whether bestowing favors or avenging vengeance upon humanity, they remained within the bounds of their duties. Humans could not change the gods, but they could alter their myths, thereby indirectly influencing them. This allowed humans to respond to threats or blessings from the gods, and even led to conflicts between gods, resulting in the creation of godslayers.

It can be said that these self-proclaimed powerful godslayers are merely partial beneficiaries of the great achievements of the ancient sages. Compared to the truly wise, fools are simply not worth mentioning.

Chapter 444 Luo Hao's Adversity

"My fellow godslayer, stop here! Though we meet again after a century, there is no other way. I must slay you here and now. Though I have been freed from my bonds, I have also been forced to swear an oath that I must kill you."

Just as Luo Hao used her magic to go to Tokyo, intending to destroy the city and the Japanese who had brought shame upon her, an eighty-centimeter-tall monkey with golden fur blocked her way.

"It's you, Monkey God. So that's how it is. Did that guy from the underworld release you?"

Luo Hao, who had read the original novel of God Killer, knew very well that every move of the Monkey God was basically controlled by Susanoo who was hiding behind Japan.

"Yeah, I'm also surprised that those three guys would let me out. After all, if the target isn't a dragon or snake, then the curse on me will lose its effect. But God Slayer, in order to break this final restraint, I must kill you here. But don't worry, no matter what you want to do here, I will help you accomplish it after I kill you. After all, these hundreds of years of restraint have made me very unhappy. I'm much more angry than when I was suppressed by Tathagata."

This was understandable, wasn't it? As the God of Steel, being suppressed by Tathagata with his immense power was unpleasant to the Monkey King, but he was outmatched and could only accept it. However, the three Susanoos had used some despicable schemes to restrain his godhood, turning him into a guard dog for Japan. This was such a great humiliation that if he didn't destroy those three guys and the country along with them, how could he be worthy of his godhood?

"It's truly pathetic, a rare heroic god turned so small and lowly, like a beast... Even cowardice should have some sense of propriety. If my goals must rely on a fellow like you, it would be a humiliation. Let me kill you, this shameful creature, first, and then go to the netherworld to settle accounts with those three!"

Facing Luo Hao's harsh accusations, the Monkey God laughed, a wanton and reckless laugh, but that sinister smile only revealed anger erupting like a volcano.

The Monkey King, or the Monkey King, who was gradually returning to his true nature, agreed that Luo Hao was right. Being tricked by Susanoo was truly a great humiliation. He knew about this, but if someone else were to speak out about it, it would undoubtedly be a slap in the face, and a direct slap to his face. Luo Hao's behavior was undoubtedly provoking death.

"God Slayer, you are seeking death!"

As if it popped out from between his teeth, the Monkey God looked at Luo Hao with murderous intent, and then chanted the words of the Monkey King to restore his original appearance.

"Great is Kun Yuan, where all things are born and live, following the will of Heaven. The earth is Kun!"

"I am not the Monkey God. I am Heaven, a being equal to Heaven—I am the Monkey King born from stone, with limitless magical powers and countless transformations. In the Heavenly Palace, I steal elixirs, indulge in alcohol, steal peaches, practice martial arts, commit crimes, and show my evil deeds! My surname is Sun, my name is Wukong, and I call myself the Great Sage Equaling Heaven!"

The Monkey King regained his original form and ferociously took out his weapon, the Dinghai Shenzhen Iron, and struck Luo Hao with lightning speed. It was obvious that he had already activated his supernatural power. With the weight of the Dinghai Shenzhen Iron, at such a swinging speed, it was enough to destroy mountains and break peaks.

"The way of heaven is clear, the way of earth is peaceful, and the way of man is empty and peaceful!"

Luo Hao naturally knew this. She used her divine feet to cross the space and avoid the Monkey King's very vicious attack. Then she chanted the spiritual words and hit the Monkey King heavily with the Twelve Flying Phoenix Palms.

However, to her surprise, her attack had basically no effect.

"It's no use, Godslayer. Unlike when I was the Monkey King, I have now regained my original godhood and returned to the original appearance of the Monkey King, with flaming eyes, iron head and arms, and a bronze back and body. I ate the peaches of heaven, drank spiritual wine, and consumed elixirs to transform myself into an indestructible body. I was also tempered by the flames of the Eight Trigrams Furnace, and can withstand the slashing of swords and axes, and even lightning strikes without sustaining any damage."

Although the Steel Gods cannot possess the same powerful immortality as the Earth Mother, the Steel Blessings that have been tempered by the fierce fire can also make the Steel Gods have extremely strong bodies. Except for extremely high temperatures, that is, flames and the sun, the Steel Blessings have extremely strong resistance to other types of attacks.

As the steel among steel, the God of Steel who is qualified and capable of competing for the final king, the Monkey King's Steel Protection is also extremely powerful. Luo Hao's extremely powerful attack, which is enough to seriously injure an ordinary disobedient god, did not hurt the Monkey King at all, leaving him no chance to dodge.

It can be said that for Luo Hao, who does not have powerful powers related to flames or the sun, the indestructible body of the Monkey King alone is enough to put her in a tough fight, not to mention that the Monkey King also has other powerful powers. It is obvious that Luo Hao and the Monkey King are not compatible, and the probability of defeat is very high.

Although the godslayers are beings beyond common sense, beyond the impossible, humans who even kill gods, they possess incredible luck and always have a chance of victory no matter how powerful the enemy is.

But even the Godslayers are not invincible. The heroes entrusted by the gods with the task of slaying the Demon King of Earth—the Last King—are the Godslayers' natural enemy, a powerful being they can never defeat. Facing such a disobedient god, the Godslayers' incredible luck cannot help them transcend their fate. After all, when luck comes, heaven and earth are united in power; when it goes, heroes are powerless. Those who rely on fate will ultimately be destroyed by it.

Although the Monkey King is not the Last King, as a candidate for the Last King, he is able to use the simple Covenant Technique. From a mysterious perspective, he possesses some of the qualities of the Last King. When the God Slayer faces him, his hope of victory is very slim, and he is almost a natural enemy.

However, creatures like the God Slayer don't care about so many things. Although she is at a disadvantage, Luo Hao still chants the spiritual words and rushes forward directly. She doesn't think she will lose.

"Fight in the south of the city, die in the north of the suburbs, die in the wild without burial and be eaten by crows. Say to the crows for me: Be a hero! Come and fight! Great Sage Equal to Heaven! Let me take off your head."

Chapter 445: Luo Hao is forced into a desperate situation

Deep in the lush green mountains, the scent of earth and trees was strong, and beside them was a gurgling stream. Upstream of the stream stood an old wooden house, where three people sat in front of an old-fashioned fireplace, a basin filled with clear water.

The leader was an old man who was at least 180 cm tall and very tall. He was only wearing a rough kimono, so it was obvious that he had a strong body that did not match his age. The muscles all over his body made most strong men pale in comparison.

The monk on the right is wearing a black robe, but he doesn't look human at all. His skin is extremely dry, with no real flesh left, as if it has completely peeled off. This is like a Buddha in the flesh, a mummy-like appearance.

On the left sat a peerless beauty, dressed in the vibrantly colored twelve-piece kimono, the attire of a noble princess from the Heian period. Her eyes were the color of clear glass, her hair was a shock of brown, and her skin was a smooth, delicate ivory. Her beauty was as lovely as if sculpted by the finest artist.

"It seems that the hateful fool will be defeated by the Monkey King. This is really great."

The withered monk chuckled. Although he was a Buddhist, as a non-Buddha who had achieved immortality through the practice of the present-day Buddha, he could not be said to have any compassion. On the contrary, his personality was very extreme.

"That's only natural. After all, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven is one of the candidates for the Strongest Steel. He can use a simplified version of the Covenant Technique. He's just facing a mere God Slayer. How could he possibly lose?"

Looking at Luo Hao who was retreating step by step in the water mirror in front of him, Susanoo said viciously. He didn't have much good feelings towards Luo Hao, the guy who disrupted his plan.

After all, releasing the Monkey King is still quite dangerous. After all, compared to Luo Hao, the three of them are the targets that the Monkey King wants to kill the most.

Even if he left a backup plan on the Monkey King, it would still cost a considerable price. However, killing Luo Hao was not too much of a loss. After all, the reduction in the number of godslayers would further delay the awakening of the Last King, which was good news for him.

Princess Liulitong, the ancestor of the gods, Sita, did not say anything. She just hoped that the damage caused by the battle between the Monkey King and Luo Hao would be smaller and would not endanger the bloodline she spread in Japan.

When she came to Japan following Rama's trail, she bestowed the power and bloodline of the ancestor god to those priestesses at the request of Susanoo, causing highly qualified priestesses to emerge continuously in Japan. She was quite concerned about these priestesses who inherited her power and bloodline.

"Yes, the power of the Monkey King is quite terrifying. If we hadn't left enough tricks on him, to be honest, we really wouldn't dare to let him out like this."

The black-robed monk let out a strange laugh. He couldn't wait to see Luo Hao, a strong man whom he had never been able to match, die under his push.

"Ha! The Great Sage Equaling Heaven has also summoned his fellow disciples. That God Slayer is doomed."

Susanoo made his own judgment. Facing the full-strength attack of the Monkey King, Luo Hao was doomed to die and no one could save her.

"Hahaha! Didn't you say you were going to destroy me? Why are you acting so embarrassed? God Slayer, you shameless fellow, can you still say that now? Now I'll let you witness my supernatural power. Now I'll complete this great method of manifestation from God to bury you."

The Monkey King laughed wildly, and two stone statues suddenly appeared in his hands. One was an armored warrior with a pig's head, and the other was a ghost statue with hair like flames.

"The treasured light contains heaven and earth, the magic sword combines yin and yang. I, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, have made a pact of righteous brotherhood. Let my brothers reveal themselves, my second brother Zhu Ganglie."

The armored warrior statue the Great Sage had thrown immediately swelled up, transforming into the God of Disobedience. It had a pig's head covered in thick black hair, prominent fangs, but a very pleasant face, and a massive, fat, and powerful body clad in black armor.

"Come out, Third Junior Brother Shenshashen"

This time, the ghost image cast also appeared as a god, with a towering crimson lotus hair, a face like a demon, dark skin, a dark and gloomy expression, and a blue armor draped over tattered clothes...

"Really? I'm finally back."

"It's been a long time, Big Brother, Second Brother. I think our job is to eliminate that guy in front of us, right?"

The two deities who descended to Earth spoke. Zhu Bajie, the Zhu Gangli, Sha Wujing, the Shensha Shen, and Sun Wukong. This meant a three-on-one summoning of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven's subordinate deities. Unlike ordinary subordinate deities, their power was essentially the same as that of ordinary non-subordinate deities. It could be said that Luo Hao had been defeated this time.

"Use your long-lost naval commander abilities. General Juan Lian will flexibly command the navy to drive out all the evil spirits and monsters. Summon the dragon to bring rain."

As Shensha God finished chanting, a column of water rushed up to the sky and its shape began to change. The dragon created by Shensha God's manipulation of the water was revealed.

"I want to show you my former military prowess as a general of the Imperial Guards."

The Deep Sand God, standing on top of the faucet, boasted. The dragon, with its head bent, was truly majestic.

"Oh, Third Junior Brother is so handsome."

Zhu Ganglie was not to be outdone. He chanted the spiritual words and exerted his power.

"I am also known as the Nine Heavens Father, Lingkui Grandmaster, Hanyuan Taixu Tianpengdu Marshal 3.0 True Lord. I am the Marshal of the Great Emperor. With my bravery, I will show the North Star."

Zhu Ganglie's body began to grow huge. Not only did he have the ability to control the heavens and the earth, but he also displayed the magical power of three heads and six arms. Each of his six arms held a sword, a halberd, an axe, a stick, a bow, and an arrow, and he was wearing black armor.

Zhu Ganglie and Sha Wujing surrounded Luo Hao from the left and right, watching her closely and cutting off her retreat.

Faced with such a dangerous situation, although Luo Hao's fighting spirit was still very high, the premonitions that kept flashing through her mind also told her that this might be the end of her.

Although Luo Hao knew he had been reckless this time, he had no regrets. After all, it was his choice, and even if it was wrong, he had no choice but to go all the way. It was just death, so what was there to fear?

Chapter 446: Li Xuan Finally Appears

Unfortunately, facing the Monkey King, one of the candidates for the final king, fate was not on Luo Hao's side this time.

She was defeated, completely defeated, and it was natural for her to lose. When facing the Monkey King, who was like his natural enemy, even a godslayer who could work miracles had his limits.

But Luo Hao was unwilling to accept this, extremely unwilling. She wasn't afraid of death. As a God Slayer, if she had been afraid of death, she wouldn't have become one in the first place. But she wasn't willing to die like a clown. She had been so boastful before the battle, yet she was easily crushed by the Monkey King. She, Luo Hao, had become this clown-like character. In the past, those who became such clowns were those who dared to challenge her, but now she had become one of them. It was truly a great irony.

When had she become such a clown? Ah, yes, it was before she became a Godslayer. Back then, she was just a naturally gifted warrior. While still incredibly powerful, having reached the pinnacle of humanity at such a young age, she wasn't as arrogant or even conceited as she is now. When had she actually come to think her victory was natural? She was truly too arrogant.

Finally, before his death, in front of the Monkey King who he thought he had in control but was beaten up, Luo Hao finally had a moment of reflection after becoming a godslayer. Was he too arrogant?

So that's how it is. It seems that the defeat was not unfair. It is an eternal truth that an arrogant army will be defeated. Thinking of this, Luo Hao became aware of his impending death. He made such a big mistake, so it was natural for him to be killed.

"Haha, it looks like this god-killing pest has run out of energy! She's doomed."

The black-robed monk couldn't help but laugh. In his opinion, Luo Hao was dead. Her spell power was exhausted and she was severely injured. There was no chance of survival at all.

"That being said, what's next is the real trouble. This monkey won't be as easy to lock up as last time. I wonder if the people on the official history compilation committee have prepared a grand ceremony."

Not only the monks, Susanoo had even begun to ponder the issues that would arise after Luo Hao's destruction. After all, the Monkey King, even more powerful than Luo Hao, was still there. However, Susanoo wasn't too worried about this. He knew that the Monkey King, whom he had tricked for centuries, was not without solutions. The many back-up plans he had left behind were enough to convince the Monkey King to return to the stables and become the Horse Keeper. It would simply cost a bit more, requiring a considerable amount of treasures.

Thinking of this, Susanoo couldn't help but look at Luo Hao angrily. If it weren't for her, his plan wouldn't have been disrupted. It was really hateful.

Princess Sita, who was silent on the side, was thinking about how to protect the maidens of her own blood. After all, they were the real main force in the operation of this grand ceremony. Although Susanoo had made preparations early, it was still an extremely dangerous task to subdue the Monkey King now. If he was not careful, he would die.

None of the three gods thought about Luo Hao's ending, which was understandable. After all, in their eyes, Luo Hao had only one ending, and that was destruction.

The Monkey King thought the same. Under the attack of his three fellow disciples, although Luo Hao did not die immediately, he lost the ability to resist.

"Godslayer, just die in peace! I will bury all the people and gods in this country with you."

As long as he killed her, killed this godslayer, he would get the freedom he had always dreamed of. Thinking of this, the Monkey King, with an increasingly high spirit, waved the Dinghai Shenzhen in his hand, and with the sound of breaking through the air, aimed at Luo Hao who had lost the ability to dodge.

"It seems that the King of Martial Arts is doomed. I never thought that a small country like Japan would have such a trump card. It can actually drive a disobedient god. This is really incredible. It seems that I underestimated the world. Japan actually has the support of a disobedient god behind it. This is really amazing."

Alice, who came to the vicinity of the battlefield in her ghost body, couldn't help but sigh that even she, the president of the Council of Sages, didn't dare to spy on Luo Hao's actions casually, but the battle between Luo Hao and the Monkey King could not be hidden from others. When she arrived at the scene, she thought that the winner would be the Martial Arts King, the strongest among the godslayers, but what she didn't expect was that Luo Hao was defeated and didn't even have a chance to retreat. It seemed that he would die here.

However, when everyone thought that Luo Hao was doomed to die, even Luo Hao himself thought so, a white jade-like palm appeared in the trajectory of the Dinghai Shenzhen Iron's swing, and grabbed the Shenzhen Iron slowly but quickly.

"That won't do! Although Luo Hao has a bad temper, she is still my person after all. I can give her a trial and let her hone herself, but it's impossible for you to kill her."

Li Xuan's figure emerged from thin air, speaking nonchalantly. He had been in the God Slayer world for some time, but he hadn't appeared. Instead, after removing the influence of the God Slayer ritual on Luo Hao, he quietly observed. If Luo Hao, under the influence of the God Slayer ritual, was merely a fool, then Luo Hao, now returned to her true self, was completely different, with the potential for growth and progress. However, Luo Hao's personality had been fixed for too long, and she needed someone to wake her up. This person was obviously the enemy, the Monkey King.

So even when Luo Hao was at a disadvantage, Li Xuan did not show up until Luo Hao was finally between life and death, questioned her own heart, and completely got rid of the influence of the God-killer Ritual on her. It was time for Li Xuan to come forward.

"Who is he?"

Susanoo's original leisurely drinking posture had completely disappeared, and he didn't even notice that the wine glass in his hand was crushed into powder.

Who is this man who suddenly appeared? He was able to appear in the middle of the battlefield without him noticing. You know, he has been planning in Japan for a thousand years, and he is confident that no one can hide from his eyes when they set foot on this land.

For example, Luo Hao was proficient in magic. No matter how mysterious her magical powers were, they could not be hidden from his eyes, right?

Not only him, but also the black-robed monk Tian Hai, Princess Sita with the Glazed Eyes, the Monkey King, the White Priestess Alice, and everyone else watching the battle were all wondering: who was this man who suddenly appeared in the middle of the battlefield, stopping the Monkey King's attack and saving Luo Hao?

Chapter 447: The Angry Monkey King

"who are you?"

Luo Hao stared at Li Xuan in a daze, feeling a little confused for a moment. She had thought she was dead, but she didn't expect that someone would come out and save her life at this time.

This surprised Luo Hao greatly. After all, in this situation, the only ones who could have stopped the Monkey King's attack were the Godslayer or the God of Disobedience. Regardless of that existence, it was impossible for them to come out to save her at this time. So Luo Hao was very curious about who had saved her.

The other people and gods who were concerned about Li Xuan's identity also heard Luo Hao's question, which made them a little disappointed. They had originally planned to know Li Xuan's identity from Luo Hao, but now even Luo Hao, the rescued person, did not know Li Xuan's identity.

"Me? Luo Hao, you should have some understanding of the chat group. I am the group owner of that group. You were in danger this time, so I came to save you."

The chat group owner!? Ever since she entered the chat group for the second time, Luo Hao had learned the specific information about the chat group from the announcement and discovered the direction of her future destiny. That was why, in her rage, she raided Japan to kill the Japanese who had brought shame upon her. Unexpectedly, she was severely injured by the released Monkey King, and her life was in danger.

Luo Hao also had a certain understanding of the magic of the chat group. Naturally, she understood the power of Li Xuan who was able to become the group leader of the chat group. At least she knew that she could not reach the four-digit power mentioned in the announcement.

And for the group leader, such power can indeed be bestowed on others at will. Based on this point, Luo Hao knew the gap between himself and Li Xuan. Although the God Slayer was rather arrogant, Luo Hao was still very clear about such a huge gap.

However, what Luo Hao didn't expect was that even though she had previously clashed with several group members, Li Xuan, the group leader, was willing to come to her rescue. This was incredibly surprising. After all, Luo Hao asked herself, if it were her, she might not care about conflicts between her subordinates, but she also wouldn't rush to rescue just any subordinate in danger. In her opinion, with such a huge gap in strength, her existence should be dispensable to Li Xuan, so why would he come to her rescue?

A chat group? ? ? The Monkey King was completely bewildered. As a god of disobedience who had been trapped for hundreds of years, he had no idea what this thing was, so he was completely unable to understand the conversation between Li Xuan and Luo Hao.

However, Susanoo and the other two knew something about the technological products of mortals. They probably knew that it was a chat tool between ordinary people. Of all the people present, the only one who knew what a chat group was was probably Alice, who appeared here in a ghostly form.
