Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

"I come."

Player #3 has to go alone.

"come on!"

"Number 3, you can do it."

"Remember to worship the Dice Goddess."

Liu Zheng and the other two prayed for him together.

There's no other way; if player number 3 fails again, they'll really be wiped out.

The dice spun again and finally settled.

0 and 1.

"Is this a major failure or a major success?"

Player #3 gasped, but still asked with a glimmer of hope.

"A major failure."

However, the female diver's answer was so cold and heartless.

"I've already told you to worship the Dice Goddess, but you still won't listen!"

Player #4 was heartbroken.

"Alright, stop talking nonsense. You have one more chance."

Player #3 glared and roared.

"Beautiful and noble Dice Goddess, if you can bless me to roll the dice successfully, I will set up an altar for you when I go out!"

Player number 3 knelt down and then shouted.

"That's a bit too much force."

"The knowledgeable player number 4 exclaimed in surprise."

In the Metropolitan City, setting up an altar is a very strict administrative matter and can easily attract the attention of the Public Security Bureau.

Don't even mention worshipping evil gods; even "righteous" gods like the Dice Girl will encounter various obstacles in the process.

To fulfill the promise, Player 3 will definitely have to pay a heavy price.

As player number 3 prayed, the dice gradually came to a stop.

0 and 0.

"The lucky prediction was a great success!"

The female divers' voices were tinged with excitement.

After all, this group's faces were just too dark; if they were to be wiped out in the end, she was worried that her own luck would turn bad.

The ink spots on the torn pages of the Black Book all stood up and jumped onto Liu Zheng.

Amidst a chilling sound of chewing, his flesh continued to diminish while his bones continued to grow.

The growth continued even after his head reached the ceiling of the cabin.

Liu Zheng let out a dissatisfied grumble, then clenched his fist and punched upwards.

Bone, wrapped in bloody threads, smashed through the deck. He withdrew his fist and stuck his head out of the hole.

The deck was in complete chaos. Some pirates were fleeing for their lives, some were waiting to die, some were desperately attacking the tentacles, and some had gone mad, standing still and shouting.

The flamingo remained calm.

He stared coldly into the distance, where the golden belt floated in the air, writhing as if it were alive.

He was holding a strangely shaped longsword in his hand, with a high protrusion on the spine and an extremely narrow blade, making it look more like an iron cone.

The pink coat was also fluttering in the wind, as if it really was a flamingo puffing out its feathers.

When the flamingo saw Liu Zheng's head emerge, it paused for a moment, then warily raised its longsword at him.

The golden belt also trembled rapidly in the air, emitting a hissing sound similar to that of a snake.

Liu Zheng glanced at him indifferently, then exhaled through his nose.

Two drops of ink were sprayed out and then chased each other in the air.

As they moved rapidly, gusts of black wind began to rage across the deck.

All the pirates blown by the wind turned into white bones.

Besides, flamingos.

Chapter 337: I'm a food delivery driver, so a speedrun in a tabletop role-playing game is quite reasonable, right?

He took a step forward, his body leaning slightly forward.

The longsword in his hand thrust forward, and an invisible blade of energy spread out from the tip of the sword to both sides, cleaving the black wind in two.

Then, without hesitation, he shook his coat and took flight like a real bird, heading away from the battlefield.

"You run pretty fast."

Liu Zheng gave a silent, cold laugh, then looked at his real opponent.

In the sea, which was so calm it was almost lifeless, a pair of enormous eyes stared back at him.

Unlike the bulging black striped pupils of a typical octopus, this sea monster has a pair of beautiful emerald green eyes that look like a pair of cat eyes, only much larger.

But what didn't match those beautiful eyes was the sea monster's hideous and terrifying body.

Deep purple lines cover its surface, forming mysterious and intricate patterns.

Those patterns contain an evil and ancient power that even the sea monster itself cannot control.

This is a remnant of that earth-shattering war, and a curse upon those great beings who perished.

An ordinary person would get a splitting headache just from looking at it, unable to understand its mysteries.

If they were scholars or magicians, they might even put on a brain firework display on the spot.

The pirates who had gone mad on the deck were the work of these mysterious patterns.

Of course, the worse a person's eyesight and intelligence, the less affected they will be.

However, Liu Zheng no longer needs to rely on Wozki Shude's intelligence of 1 point.

“Wozki Shuode saw the patterns on the sea monster’s larvae. The patterns, drawn with the rotten blood of the gods, contained secrets that ordinary people could never fathom.”

"But at this moment, Wozki Shude also received the reward of the evil god and became a being beyond the mortal realm. In his eyes, these patterns were no different from children's scribbles."

"Therefore, Player 2 does not need to be judged by willpower."

The female diver said.

Liu Zheng didn't pay attention to her words; at this moment, his mind and body were completely immersed in that abundant power.

The feeling was similar to the feeling after wearing the cosplay outfit last time, but it was stronger and more complex.

Although the feeling is illusory, it is still captivating.

If he possessed such power in reality, he wouldn't be the one suffering the most.

"Crench!"

The ship creaked as it struggled under the weight.

The sea monster sensed the danger and planned to tear the pirate ship apart.

Liu Zheng, of course, wouldn't let it succeed. He opened his mouth again and spat out a large glob of ink.

The ink blob automatically split into countless tiny ink droplets, which dripped onto the sea monster's tentacles.

As soon as they came into contact with the ink dots, the deep purple patterns disappeared one after another, as if they had been erased by an eraser.

As the patterns disappeared, the sea monster's rocking force weakened, and its large eyes narrowed.

These patterns are both the source of the sea monster's extraordinary power and an integral part of its body.

Liu Zheng erased the patterns, as if cutting flesh from its body.

The sea monster, no longer bothering to tear the pirate ship apart, immediately retracted its tentacles and sank into the sea.

Purple dark currents rose from the seabed of the Boundless Sea, were absorbed by the suckers on the tentacles, and then transformed into patterns that grew on the surface of the sea monster.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Zheng also made the most of the time to digest the power bestowed upon him by the Book of Black.

His body continued to grow until his entire upper body was exposed outside the pirate ship.

And the flesh and blood on his body gradually decreased, turning him into a huge skeleton with three arms and four hands.

Fortunately, Liu Zheng's weight did not increase significantly. Although the pirate ship's draft increased considerably, it was not sinking.

He looked down at the rising undercurrents beneath the surface of the sea, and his intuition told him that going into the water to fight the sea monster was not a good idea.

So he grabbed a cannonball from the deck and threw it at the sea monster.

The cannonball flew out faster than a cannonball could fire, and crashed straight into the sea monster.

The sea monster emitted a high-frequency noise, but Liu Zheng could tell it was a contemptuous laugh.

How could mere human gunpowder weapons possibly harm the darling of this sea?

Ordinary cannonballs would naturally not be able to harm the sea monster.

Even the most advanced naval cannons in the invincible fleet could only scratch the sea monster at most.

Of course, once you leave the Unpredictable Sea of ​​Deception, this protection will be greatly weakened.

But whether it's the binding force of the curse or the sea monsters' own survival wisdom, they will never leave this sea area.

However, this also means they lack experience fighting truly powerful superhumans, let alone someone like Liu Zheng, a chosen one of the gods.

The instant the cannonball struck the sea monster's body, countless ink dots emerged from the craters on the cannonball's surface, enveloping it like a cloth.

The cannonball, now covered in ink dots, easily broke through the sea monster's defenses and slammed into its body.

"Goo~"

The long, drawn-out sound waves emanated from the sea monster's body and spread through the seawater.

Liu Zheng automatically interpreted this as its scream.

The sea monster's tentacles curled up, protecting its body, and it sank towards the seabed.

Liu Zheng, of course, wouldn't let it get away so easily, and unleashed his three bone hands.

The bone hand shot out of the body, and droplets of ink stretched out in a row, like chains connecting the bone hand and the arm.

Soon, the bone hand grabbed the exposed tail of the cannonball.

The ink from the shell automatically gathered onto the bone hand, like glue, sticking the bone hand and the shell together.

Liu Zheng pulled with all his might, trying to lift the sea monster up.

The sea monster's tentacles curled up even more, like a strange flower bud.

"Let's have a power struggle."

The voice of the female divers finally rang out again.

Four ten-sided dice appeared simultaneously above Liu Zheng and the sea monster's heads, and then began to spin automatically.

"Almighty God of Dice, I am willing to exchange a lifetime of silence from the Ghost Hand for one success."

He quickly prayed in his heart.

Since the ghost hand can't speak anyway, it doesn't matter if it's replaced.

Soon, the dice stopped spinning.

Liu Zheng has 87 points, and the sea monster has 56 points.

"Player number 2 wins the contest of strength."

The female divers announced the results.

Countless ink dots seeped from Liu Zheng's bones and then turned into black flames.
