“Demon King, are you recovering? I… can’t hold on much longer.” Black Radiance had used up two magazines and his arm was also covered in numerous cuts.
Suppressing the sudden palpitations in his heart, Pei Jinye quickly dismantled the mainframe, turned and fled, his sword slashing out.
The tentacle rushing towards Black Radiance was suddenly severed, and he stumbled, falling off the corpse, rolling and crawling to hide behind Pei Jinye.
“I’ve got the item,” signaled Pei Jinye. “Tell Tian Heng to quickly integrate the current situation. I’ll deal with the Void Hunter. Stay back.”
Black Radiance reacted quickly, rapidly fitting a new magazine and hiding in the rear to contact Tian Heng.
Pei Jinye moved forward.
A hole appeared where a crew member had previously gone missing. Broken tentacles writhed on the floor, and blood spread in all directions.
It was as if something was violently shaking on the negative second floor.
“Thump thump thump!”
The aluminum alloy floor of the negative first floor visibly bulged as if struck by some creature, rapidly developing a series of indentations.
They continued all the way to where Pei Jinye stood.
“Boom!”
The floor exploded.
Several tentacles burst out, attempting to entangle Pei Jinye.
With an expression of calm, Pei Jinye stepped down, the aluminum alloy floor again subjected to a tremendous force, bursting under the strain and sending numerous fragments tumbling into the air.
Pei Jinye sank abruptly downward.
Black Radiance, in the midst of reporting, stared dumbfounded.
He blankly raised his head.
Noticeable to the eye, Demon King didn’t dodge the attack of the Void Hunter; he directly plunged downward, the terrifying surge of energy erupting from him crushing everything around.
At this moment, he finally understood why the Demon King had specifically advised him to stay far away.
In a rush, he retreated explosively once more.
“Slara—”
The air in mid-air tore apart.
Pei Jinye stomped on the head of the giant octopus, both hands on his sword, stabbing ferociously downward.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
The room on the negative second floor was like the site of a thunderbolt bombardment.
All sorts of equipment around him were enveloped by the sword light, exploding into fragments, the raging shockwaves unleashing a fierce roar.
The heart-wrenching cries of the giant octopus gradually drowned out.
Black Radiance, hiding in the corner of the upper floor, stared blankly at the terrifying scene unfolding before him.
He softly asked, “Tian Heng, just how strong is the Demon King?”
The voice of Tian Heng echoed from the earpiece.
“As long as he wishes, you won’t even get a chance to make a move.”
“…”
The negative second floor suddenly fell into silence.
Billowing dust spilled from the collapsed area of the floor, an invisible chill engulfing Black Radiance.
“Demon King?” he called out softly.
The next second he was startled.
An unexpected figure emerged from the dust, but upon seeing it was the Demon King, Black Radiance finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, when he saw the huge body that Pei Jinye was holding, he was perplexed.
Pei Jinye was holding the corpse of a mature Void Hunter, “Store it, bring it back for research.”
Black Radiance’s face turned green, hesitating.
Pei Jinye seemed to perceive his concern and calmly said, “It’s already dead, don’t worry about being parasitized.”
Black Radiance did not dare to offend him, suppressing the fear in his heart, he stored the Void Hunter’s corpse into his personal space.
Pei Jinye watched him store it away, slightly raising his eyebrows.
Then he turned and said, “Silver Art, how’s it going with you?”
“Not bad, encountered a humanoid monster,” Silver Art said.
At this news, Pei Jinye thought of the ship captain who was last seen kneeling at the basement door in the surveillance footage.
“Brother Demon King, come save us,” came Little Red Luo’s voice from Silver Art’s communicator.
Pei Jinye responded, “The motherboard is in hand, Black Radiance and I will head over.”
“Waiting for you.”
…
The bloodied Skeleton Man, wearing the ship captain’s uniform, held a Bone Sword that continuously dripped blood onto the ground.
After an assault, Silver Art swiftly jumped back, frowning. “Such a strange body.”
“How can he not be killed?” Lou Hai pressed down the shock in his heart. “Has he been possessed as well?”
“Doesn’t seem like it,” Little Red Luo said, tilting her head. “The Void Hunter’s possession maintains the host’s appearance. Look at this filthy thing… really disgusting. But once Brother Demon King arrives, everything will be settled.”
Lou Hai silently looked at her.
Somewhat helpless.
Was this the same person who killed without batting an eyelid?
But realizing his own abilities seemed to be affected by the magnetic field, an uneasy feeling persisted in his mind.
The Skeleton Man charged at them once again.
The blood at his feet seemed to follow like a shadow.
The surging power poured into his Bone Sword, enveloping Silver Art and the pair.
Silver Art stretched out his hand and swiped in front of himself.
Silver light flashed.
It clashed with the Blood Sea.
The exploded blood quickly gathered back at his feet.
Silver Art frowned.
Lou Hai said, “Let’s withdraw for now.”
Silver Art followed.
The three of them quickly retreated.
The Skeleton Man pursued them closely.
Unnoticed, Silver Art and his group had run all the way down to the negative sixth floor, the last floor.
Lou Hai suddenly said, “Don’t you feel… he’s deliberately herding us here?”
“I also feel…” Little Red Luo said, tilting her head.
Pei Jinye’s voice came through Silver Art’s communicator, “You guys…”
However, the rest of the message seemed to be affected by some magnetic field, turning into a stream of static.
Silver Art tapped his helmet, “Demon King?”
