Chapter 345 It’s Late at Night, and the Devil’s Grudge Is Raging

"Zheng Yu"'s face was deformed by the golden bowl, and then slowly collapsed into a ball of liquid.

This change made the fat monk pause, a special expression appeared on his face, and then he ran towards the underground cellar without looking back.

"Guji?"

The shapeshifter didn't understand the other party's action.

He had no ability to resist and fight, and according to the task given to him by the master, he was to provoke the other party.

Because among all the summoned beast predecessors, his strength was the weakest, not only in appearance, from combat power to attributes, from momentum to skills, none of them were weak.

Not to mention that he was weak among Zheng Yu's summoned beasts, among the entire 7th-level summoned beasts, shapeshifters were not good at fighting.

Provoking a shapeshifter was like kicking cotton.

It would not fight back at all.

But I didn't expect that facing such a weak shapeshifter, the other party still ran away.

"Should we chase him?"

After the fat monk ran away, Zhang Mu and Zheng Yu showed up at the door of the cellar. Zheng Yu shook his head: "It doesn't matter, we have locked him."

Zheng Yu didn't rush to attack the fat monk.

This is the Awakening Abyss, not the type of abyss where you level up by killing monsters. The fat monk is obviously different from the two monks who live and die in the temple.

[It's late at night, the devil's grudge is rampant, and the boundless grudge takes care of the killer...]

At this time, the system prompt suddenly appeared.

Zheng Yu turned his head and looked outside. The sun had set, and darkness was invading the Demon Temple...

"Boundless grudge takes care of the killer..."

Just as Zheng Yu was thinking about the true meaning of this sentence, Zheng Yu saw Zhang Mu's extremely painful expression, cold sweat soaked his clothes, and sweat fell from the light armor.

It is hard to imagine what kind of pain it is that can make Zhang Mu, a soldier and warrior, suffer to such an extent.

But Zheng Yu has no problem.

Zheng Yu tried to let Queen Psylocke relieve Zhang Mu's pain, but the problem was that Zhang Mu had not lost any blood for almost five minutes since he began to show a painful expression.

No negative status.

No blood loss.

No enemy mark.

Only pain.

It took about 7 or 8 minutes for Zhang Mu to slowly feel relieved.

"Huh..."

"Huh..."

"Huh..."

Zhang Mu panted and collapsed on the ground, his whole body soaked with sweat. Zhang Mu recovered and looked up to Zheng Yu and said, "I'm marked."

"Mark?"

"A mark called Greed." Zhang Mu explained.

"This mark does not reduce health or status. There is no trace, only pain, from the mind to the body, a kind of pain that is difficult to stop."

Zhang Mu continued: "And during the pain, I can't open the inventory, can't find any painkillers, and can't release skills."

"The light warrior has a skill that is temporarily invincible and immune to all damage, but it cannot be released during the pain stage."

"Banned magic?" Zheng Yu asked.

Zhang Mu shook his head: "It doesn't feel like it, it feels more like a special state."

"But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the system reminds me that if I collect 3 poisons, I will be in a state of pain forever, and if I collect 5 poisons, I will fall directly into hell."

"Fall into hell?"

Zheng Yu certainly didn't think that this hell was the home of the King of Hell. After a brief thought, Zheng Yu said: "Buddhism has five poisons, greed, anger, ignorance, arrogance and doubt."

"The so-called five poisons are greed, greed, anger, anger, ignorance, lack of wisdom, arrogance, doubt... Your mark is the first greed."

"Collecting the three poisons, that is, collecting the three marks, the pain will not stop, and you will lose your combat effectiveness. Collecting the five poisons will fall into hell."

"The question now is, does this fall into hell mean leaving the abyss and losing the qualification to compete for awakening, or... dying directly?"

Zhang Mu shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Zheng Yu continued, "No matter which one, the result is the same. This is the means by which the abyss forces us to fight."

"Boundless resentment will protect the killer. I am the only killer tonight, so I was not marked."

While Zheng Yu was speaking, other members in the group also reported their situations. Like Zhang Mu, they were all marked as "greedy".

The pain time was also the same.

Especially after understanding the meaning of the mark, Zhang Zhan and the others are now very panicked.

Because according to this abyss rule, Zhang Zhan and the others must also participate in the battle.

You have to kill people before you can continue.

"This...what should I do?"

The speaker was Xing Yingluan.

If ranked by strength, Xing Yingluan should be the last. He didn't sleep all night and was lucky to match Zheng Yu at the right time.

It's different from professionals in other worlds.

He knew that he had a big thigh, so he had the courage to enter the awakening abyss, while professionals in other worlds entered the awakening abyss with confidence and strength.

There is a big difference in essence.

But the current rule is that you must kill with your own hands to continue, otherwise you will be expelled from the abyss.

That's why Xing Yingluan is so anxious.

"What else can we do? It's just killing people. I don't believe that the remaining ninety professionals are stronger than us?"

The speaker is Zhang Zhan.

"Captain, don't worry, we will try our best to find opponents weaker than us. If we can't find any, it doesn't matter. For us, we are here to try our luck."

"The battle royale type of abyss requires everyone to rely on their own abilities. We can get ahead because we are lucky. We can't get ahead because we are weak. This is an indisputable fact."

"So, I don't think it's a big deal."

Zhang Zhan set the tone with a few words.

He stopped everything in advance just to tell Xing Yingluan, Lu Zhuzhu, Wen Renjin, Hu Feng, and Luo Qun not to think about morally kidnapping Zheng Yu.

Zhang Zhan used the word "we", which was for the five of them.

Zhang Zhan didn't want Zheng Yu to delay the progress of obtaining the special rewards of Awakening Abyss because of them.

The great god has the great god's plan, and those who hold on to his thighs must have the consciousness to hold on to his thighs.

In this matter, Zhang Zhan wanted to protect Zheng Yu's interests as soon as possible, instead of thinking about his own awakening abyss.

Even if I don't wake up, what can I do?

Delaying Zheng Yu is a big deal!

Facing Zhang Zhan's words, Xing Yingluan couldn't say any of the words he had prepared. He thought that since he had to kill to ensure his continuation, wouldn't it be better to let Zheng Yu be their thug?

Anyway, Zheng Yu promised them that as long as they were lucky enough to be matched into Zheng Yu's team, they would be able to awaken.

Xing Yingluan has been stuck at level 50 for several years, and he can't miss this opportunity.

Zheng Yu just smiled and replied: "I have my own arrangements."
