Chapter 1805
by 林方方Chapter 1805 Today’s God Hunt, No Remains Left Behind
Lin Qiye was stunned, “Why?”
“Calling you Lin Skinflint… it’s really true? I’m about to die… and you still want me to live in someone else’s brain to work for you? Dream on!” Xia Simeng weakly grinned, but then suddenly coughed up several mouthfuls of fresh blood.
Her gaze moved away from Lin Qiye and looked up at the starry sky, her eyes showing longing:
“What I… want most is freedom. This life I happened to become a Night Watchman… freedom was definitely gone… I want to give myself a very long, long vacation… In my next life, I’d rather be a free bird… going wherever I want.”
Lin Qiye looked at those gradually dimming eyes and opened his mouth:
“I’m sorry…”
“Oh, I’m just complaining… you just did what you had to do… honestly, these years you’ve given me more time off… than Commander Ye and Commander Zuo combined, you’re already the best commander in my heart!” Xia Simeng struggled to raise her hand, seemingly wanting to give Lin Qiye a thumbs up, but it fell limply to the ground.
Her life force rapidly faded away, her eyes closed, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.
“Goodbye… Commander Lin.”
The golden remnants of fire scattered and disappeared in the air. Under the dark red sky, only the endless sound of waves remained, buzzing.
Lin Qiye held Xia Simeng’s body, kneeling on the beach like a stone statue, motionless.
“Commander Lin…”
The members of the [Phoenix] team gathered around, their eyes red from crying.
Lin Qiye’s chest heaved violently. After a moment, he gently put down Xia Simeng’s body,
“Who caused her wounds?”
“It was a guard, he’s already dead.” Cao Sha paused, raising his bloodshot eyes, “However, it was Poseidon and Hades who ordered them to torture the captain, saying they wanted to extract intelligence about Great Xia, but the captain didn’t say a single word!”
Cao Sha recounted everything that had happened over the past two days. Lin Qiye’s face grew increasingly grim, the coldness between his brows making the other [Phoenix] members tremble involuntarily.
“…I understand.”
Lin Qiye slowly stood up and looked to the side. Besides Xia Simeng, among the dark mass of people lying on the shore, nearly two thousand had become cold corpses… they were ordinary people who had frozen or starved to death in the cage by the Olympian gods.
Lin Qiye’s hand resting on his sword hilt suddenly tightened!
Clang——!!
The sword’s cry echoed under the sky,
Lin Qiye thrust his straight sword into the ground before the corpses, the blade pointing toward the four divine mountains!
The golden “seven” mark glowed in the darkness.
Lin Qiye stepped forward, his deep red cloak dancing wildly in the storm, his killing intent almost tangible!
He took a deep breath, his voice echoing above the four divine mountains!
“——Great Xia Night Watchmen and all human powerhouses, heed my command!”
“——Today we hunt gods, leave no corpses intact! We must extract their heart bones and dye the divine mountains with blood!!”
…
On Ghost Mountain.
A deep red figure slowly pushed open the heavy palace doors. A cold, gloomy air surged out from inside, covering the ground with a layer of frost.
Shen Qingzhu lowered his head to hold a cigarette between his lips, rubbing his fingers to light it. The faint flame illuminated a corner of the darkness,
He took a deep drag and exhaled misty smoke that drifted into the hall.
“You heard it too. Our commander is determined to spill blood today… will you offer your neck yourself, or should I come and chop it off?” Shen Qingzhu said calmly.
Boom boom boom——!!
Ghostly green flames lit up one after another inside the great hall. Countless gray-black ghost shadows frantically darted around, their piercing howls making one’s scalp tingle.
Strange patterns lit up throughout the hall, like gazes from the underworld staring intently at Shen Qingzhu at the door.
“How presumptuous.” The cold voice of Hades, the King of the Underworld, rang out, “With me controlling this Netherworld Killing Formation, even a Great Xia Golden Immortal would certainly die! If you can walk out of this divine mountain alive today, I’ll cut off my own head and give it to you!”
Hearing these words, Shen Qingzhu raised an eyebrow,
“You said it yourself…”
Six gray wings opened behind Shen Qingzhu’s back. His gaze instantly turned cold, and his form transformed into a gray lightning bolt, crashing into the mythical killing formation!
The next moment, gray embers like roaring waves surged out from the hall doors!!
…
Wine God Mountain.
Lin Qiye’s voice echoed over the divine mountain, slowly fading away.
The black cloak fluttered in the wind. The figure raised his head, holding a stone xun flute in one hand, and smiled slightly,
“Hu Jia… accepts the command.”
He slowly walked up the stone steps. As soon as his foot touched the mountaintop, the ground seemed to melt, turning into dark red wine that fell downward!
Hu Jia paused but did not fall with it. Dark red wine rain surrounded him and swept through the air. Ferocious and fierce faces emerged from the wine rain, like drunken, insane, and mindless intoxicated people.
The moment he saw these faces, Hu Jia’s cheeks also flushed red, and he seemed drunk, his mind gradually slowing.
But this drunken dizziness only lasted for a moment before he came to his senses, mysterious light flowing in his eyes.
“So it’s also a mental mythical killing formation… perfect for me.”
He gently placed the stone xun to his lips, and the next moment, its melodious sound echoed over the divine mountain.
…
Lin Qiye slowly stopped between two divine mountains.
He looked up at the sky, where cause-and-effect threads hung down from the divine mountains connected to four stars… through these connections, he could clearly know which people existed on which divine mountain.
Hu Jia was on Wine God Mountain, and Brother Zhai was on Ghost Mountain. One possessed the [Immortal] mind god, the other was a Death Angel with the essence of hell. Lin Qiye wasn’t worried about them facing the mythical killing formations. The other human powerhouses facing the lesser gods shouldn’t be a problem either.
But apart from these two divine mountains, no one had gone to challenge the Sun God Mountain where Apollo resided, or the Sea God Mountain where Poseidon was located.
Lin Qiye could of course split himself in two, letting his main body face Apollo and his Burning Angel avatar face Poseidon, but this would leave his main body without the ability to slay gods, and with the Burning Angel’s divine power depleted, it would be difficult to fight effectively.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Qiye seemed to think of something. He took out an object from his pocket and placed it in his palm.
It was a game cartridge with a blank label.
