187: Chapter 187 Shadow Wings Cover the Sky, Is This Man a Demon?
Dead silence.
Only suffocating dead silence remained in the air.
The Reaper, who had been so arrogant just moments ago, was now like a weak chicken with its neck squeezed.
Even its soul fire was trembling.
Lost?
It lost just like that?!
Those were top-tier enforcers he had painstakingly cultivated with 'divine blood'!
Each of them had the strength to take on a regular army!
But what was the result? In front of these two crazy women, they were mown down like leeks, so smoothly!
"This... this is a cheat, isn't it?!"
The soft-bodied main body on the Reaper's spine let out an extremely terrified shriek.
Run!
Must run!
What's the point of fighting? Staying here would definitely turn him into sashimi!
The man sitting on the steps had an aura more terrifying than the abyss;
And those monstrous women... he couldn't possibly provoke them in his current state!
Bang!
The mummified corpse in the tuxedo didn't hesitate, instantly self-destructing!
A cloud of gray smoke enveloped the fat, disgusting main body, flying wildly towards the inverted pyramid in the distance!
He abandoned all pretense.
As long as I escape into the temple!
As long as I awaken that lord, I can turn the tables!
"Dining and Dashing without paying the bill?"
A lazy voice, mixed with the crisp click of a lighter closing, drifted over.
Chen Du sat on the steps, looking regretfully at the half-smoked cigarette in his hand.
He flicked it casually.
The spark traced a parabola in the air, landing and extinguishing.
"Where I come from, that would get your legs broken."
He slowly stood up.
The golden eyes in his gaze were no longer lazy, but flowed with king-like savagery and majesty.
At that moment.
The shadow beneath Chen Du's feet suddenly boiled and roared as if alive!
It no longer clung to the ground but surged madly upward, reorganizing and solidifying!
Rip!
The expensive custom suit on his back suddenly ripped apart, fragments scattering.
"Tsk, what a pity, this one was quite expensive."
Before his words finished.
The black mass exploded!
Under the stunned, speechless gazes of all those hidden in the shadows.
Two colossal, pitch-black bone-feathered wings, covered in ancient, profound patterns, unfurled from his back!
They were solid entities purely condensed from high-concentration shadow energy!
Ten meters wide!
Every feather was like the sharpest Shadow Blade, exuding an aura that devoured light.
Just their unfurling dimmed the surrounding light somewhat!
At this moment, Chen Du was no longer the jestering captain he had been!
He was like a Dark Night Monarch descending upon the human world, or perhaps... a fallen Lucifer!
This scene dumbfounded the survivors hiding in the ruins in the distance.
Someone's binoculars fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.
"I, my goodness... wings?!"
"Don't, don't take pictures! Do you want to die?!"
A companion next to him grabbed his hand, his face as white as paper: "How is this a human? This is clearly a Humanoid BOSS!"
"See those wings? That's solid malevolent energy!"
"Taking off? He's taking off already? Everyone else is playing survival, and this big shot is playing cultivation directly?"
"Quick! Quick, remember this face!"
Someone shakily pulled out a camera to take a picture, but his hands trembled so much he couldn't focus.
"From now on, if you see anyone with wings in Blackgold Harbor, you all better steer clear! You must steer clear!"
"This oppressive feeling... I feel like I'm suffocating. Is this still a human? This is clearly a demon!"
"Confirmed! This is definitely a T-tier cheater! Whoever provokes him dies!"
Under everyone's horrified gazes—
Whoosh—!
Chen Du paid no attention to the exclamations of those ants.
The Shadow Wings on his back vibrated fiercely!
A gust of wind swept across the ground, sending several trash cans flying more than ten meters away!
Only an afterimage remained in his original spot.
And a hundred meters up in the sky, Chen Du's figure appeared as if teleported.
In just one second.
He appeared above the frantically wriggling gray smoke cloud with terrifying speed, having started later but arrived first.
Looking down from above.
Like a god gazing down at a rat in a gutter.
"Got you, little snack."
Chen Du's lips curved into a cruel smile.
He clenched his single hand fiercely at the void below!
Clatter!
A portion of the Shadow Wings split off, transforming into countless black chains that poured down!
Puff puff puff puff!
There was no intense chase.
This was merely a one-sided hunt.
The shadow chains precisely pierced into the gray mist, tightly coiling around the struggling soft-bodied monster within, digging into its flesh!
Then, like dragging a dead dog, it was forcibly pulled into mid-air!
"Screech screech screech—!!!"
The Reaper let out a horrifying shriek, the excruciating pain of its soul being burned.
"How is this possible... how can you grasp a spirit body?!"
Looking at the man floating in mid-air before him, the Reaper's last psychological defense completely collapsed.
Fear, like a tidal wave, engulfed him.
He desperately twisted his corpulent body, emitting mental waves of pleading.
"Spare me! My lord! I was blind not to recognize your greatness!"
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I know secrets! I know the earth-shattering secrets in the temple!"
"I can take you to a good place! If you kill me, you'll get nothing! This is about a god..."
However.
Chen Du merely tilted his head.
His pair of brilliant golden eyes gazed indifferently at this disgusting bug.
"Secrets?"
A black long spear condensed out of thin air in his hand.
On the spear tip, a 'true' white light flickered, impossible to defend against, impossible to be exempt from.
"Sorry, I'm not in the habit of bargaining."
Chen Du's voice was chillingly calm, "If I eat you, your brain is mine, and I'll know anyway."
"Goodbye, trash."
Whoosh!!
The Shadow Spear stabbed down without hesitation!
Without any obstruction!
In the face of a fatal strike imbued with the [Judgment] attribute, the Reaper's soul defense was easily pierced!
The long spear impaled the leech-like main body, pinning it like a specimen in the void!
"No!! I don't want to die!!!"
Accompanied by the final desperate and unwilling shriek.
The Reaper's body did not fall.
Instead, in that domineering true white light, it rapidly disintegrated and shattered.
Turning into countless tiny gray-white specks of light, which were then greedily swept up by the shadow chains behind Chen Du and completely absorbed!
At the same time.
In his mind, the ancient notebook flipped wildly, rustling.
The grotesque mouth on the cover stretched to its ears, emitting satisfied grinding sounds.
As if it had tasted the most delicious delicacy in the world.
It let out a satisfied burp.
[Devour successful! Tastes a bit like stinky tofu, smells bad but tastes good!]
[Congratulations! Kid! We've obtained secrets about the 'God of Pleasure' and the 'Lord of Ghosts'!]
A massive and obscure stream of information was brutally shoved into Chen Du's mind.
These were forbidden knowledge about two higher-ranking existences, secrets that would drive ordinary people mad with a single glance.
But in his mind, these were merely new prey files.
A moment later.
Chen Du slowly opened his eyes.
The savagery in his golden eyes receded, replaced by a hint of playfulness.
"Pleasure? Ghosts?"
He licked his lips, a hint of madness in his eyes.
"Heh, it seems the future menu... will be very rich."
