98: Chapter 98: The Most Difficult Godly Game? Perfect for me!
"Sister Linglong, the Gods Game is extraordinary. You had better wait outside."
Lu Chen had participated in a Gods Game once, so he was very clear about the cruelty and danger of the Gods Game.
"That's right! Linglong, your Uncle Sen and I must participate; we have no choice, but there is no need for you to risk it."
Chen Rou treated Yu Linglong like her own daughter, and she couldn't bear to see Yu Linglong take risks.
Yu Linglong was a smart woman.
Even if Brother Lu Chen, Uncle Sen, and Aunt Rou hadn't reminded her, she wouldn't have followed them to participate in the Gods Game.
Because if she went, she might hold Brother Lu Chen back.
And Brother Lu Chen participating in this Gods Game wasn't for any benefits; he just wanted to let his parents return to normal.
"Mm, I will wait here quietly for the good news of your success!"
Seeing that Yu Linglong was so sensible, Chen Rou liked her even more from the bottom of her heart.
Immediately, Lu Chen took his parents and entered the hidden map together.
Hum! The scene changed drastically.
The three of them arrived at a vast, mysterious underground palace.
Rather than a palace, it was more like a dark dungeon.
There were no blood-colored altars here, but there were still special "statues"!
These statues were similar to the God statues seen in the hidden map of the Blood Forest secret realm, only their forms were different.
The largest giant statue in front stood towering, holding a scepter-like weapon with a pupil-shaped gemstone embedded at the top.
Between the statue's brows was a tightly closed vertical eye; although it wasn't open, a chilling murderous intent could vaguely be felt.
What was eerie was that the statue's face was as kind as a holy mother's, wearing a smile of compassion for all living things, quietly watching over the dungeon.
Like the hidden map of the Blood Forest, there were no other Invading Monsters here besides the statues; the vast dungeon contained only a few statues and bones all over the ground.
Lu Sen and Chen Rou's bodies instinctively began to fear, shaking uncontrollably, with sweat breaking out on their palms and the backs of their hands.
They had personally experienced the terror of this Three-Eyed Mother Goddess; she was an absolutely brutal and evil god. Many of the corpses on the ground were partners they had once fought alongside.
And furthermore... many died at their own hands.
The Three-Eyed Mother Goddess's game! It made them kill each other!
Sensing his parents' emotional changes, Lu Chen immediately spoke to soothe them: "Dad, Mom, don't be afraid. With me here, I will definitely be able to help you recover your bodies and let you overcome your fear of gods. Gods, actually, are nothing special!"
Hearing this, the elderly couple felt slightly more at ease, but the fear in their hearts did not dissipate.
Click! Click! Whether it sensed someone trespassing or heard Lu Chen's disrespectful words towards the gods, the statue reacted.
Hiss! The Three-Eyed Mother Goddess opened her three eyes, crimson and filled with divine patterns, yet her expression remained holy. Her voice sounded like a dream, reaching directly into people's hearts.
[I am the compassionate Three-Eyed Mother Goddess, pitying the world, having mercy on the people, bestowing divine grace, and protecting this land. How dare you blaspheme this god?]
Lu Chen, unafraid of the god, retorted loudly: "Compassion? Mercy? Keep your hypocritical rhetoric to yourself. If you truly were a compassionate god, why did you make my parents suffer for over twenty years up to this point?"
The Three-Eyed Mother Goddess's three eyes seemed like independent living entities, each looking at Lu Sen and Chen Rou, while the Three-Eyed Mother Goddess's expression never changed.
[If not for my mercy, your parents would have long since perished in the game I set. How would your Mortal body even exist?]
[The crime of blasphemy could have reduced you to ashes, but I am a compassionate god, pitying all living things. Mortal, why don't you kowtow and thank me for my divine grace!?]
"Hmph! A bunch of False Gods playing pretend. Don't think I don't know that you also have to follow the game rules. If you want to kill us, you can only do it through the game rules!" Lu Chen snorted coldly.
Hiss! Hearing that Lu Chen was so arrogant and rude, and even dared to call her a False God, the Three-Eyed Mother Goddess's expression finally changed. She was no longer kind but, like a dark demon god, became extremely ferocious!
[Attempting to challenge my Divine Might, kid, are you seeking death?]
"Seeking death, so what? Today, I, Lu Chen, have come with my parents to participate in your game!"
"The wager is our family of three. If you win, you can do whatever you want with us. If you lose, lift the Seal on my parents and return my father's legs. Do you dare to establish a rule oath and accept my challenge, you high and mighty god!?"
Lu Chen held his head high, staring directly at the Three-Eyed Mother Goddess with eyes like torches, his voice resounding through the dungeon.
[!!!]
The Three-Eyed Mother Goddess's heart was already raging with monstrous fury. This was the first time she had encountered a class-changer who dared to despise her so much.
If she didn't crush this kid into bones and ashes, she wouldn't be able to suppress this anger.
As the kid said, if they, the gods, wanted to kill intruders, they could only do so by setting up Gods Games and using the game rules to kill the intruders.
But! She was a great god! She wouldn't let a brat dictate her game rules.
[Kid, you are very brave and also very extraordinary, but you are not yet qualified to establish a wager oath with me.]
[However, I am compassionate and can give you a chance. If you participate in my highest difficulty game, I can indeed sign a wager oath with you!]
The Three-Eyed Mother Goddess revealed her evil nature, her three eyes filled with crimson blood light.
"Son, don't easily agree to her!" Lu Sen hurriedly advised: "Your mother and I only participated in the simplest game back then, and it was already a narrow escape from death. If it's the highest difficulty, who knows how hard it will be; it might even be a certain death!"
[Kid, this is the only chance for your parents to return to normal. If you miss it, I won't give you another one in the future.]
[As a son, are you just going to watch your parents spend the rest of their lives in pain? What great unfilial behavior, Heh!]
The Three-Eyed Mother Goddess used her bewitching divine voice.
She could gain insight into Lu Chen's attribute status. But she could only discern that Lu Chen's attributes were Heaven-Defying, comparable to a top-tier fifth-order World Lord BOSS. This was the most Prodigy class-changer she had ever seen!
She knew that without the highest difficulty Gods Game, she had no confidence in killing Lu Chen!
At this moment, her heart was filled with intense desire, longing for Lu Chen to participate in the highest difficulty Gods Game. In this way, she would definitely be able to obtain very delicious "food" from Lu Chen!
This was the survival way unique to gods!
The reason she let Lu Sen and Chen Rou go back then, besides playing with them, was another important reason: to let the two of them bring someone to participate in the Gods Game again one day, in hopes of recovering their bodies.
Only in this way could she ensure that every so often, class-changers would come to participate in her Gods Game, thereby obtaining enough "food".
"Son, Mom and Dad won't blame you, you must not agree to her!" Chen Rou was also worried that the Three-Eyed Mother Goddess had ill intentions.
[That's right, don't agree. Just obediently participate in the simplest Gods Game, win to get the rewards, and then leave. Besides, it's not you who is in pain anyway!]
The Three-Eyed Mother Goddess continued to bewitch them.
Lu Chen gently patted his parents' hands, signaling the two elders to be at ease: "Dad, Mom, don't worry, I have a high chance of success!"
Immediately after, Lu Chen turned to face the Three-Eyed Mother Goddess, the corners of his mouth lifting in a confident arc: "Highest difficulty Gods Game? Just what I wanted! In my, Lu Chen's, dictionary, there has never been the word 'fear'. Instead, it is you—"
A glint of sharpness flashed in Lu Chen's deep eyes: "Don't let this game end too quickly, otherwise... I will be very disappointed."
[Hiss...] The Three-Eyed Mother Goddess let out a meaningful low laugh, the vertical eye on her forehead glowing with a strange dark light: [A mere Mortal, daring to spout such nonsense in front of me!]
Her voice suddenly carried a hint of playfulness: [When you are kneeling and begging for mercy later, don't cry too ugly!]
No one could pass the highest difficulty Gods Game she set! This brat! Must die!
Especially when he was bringing his sick and disabled parents!
Lu Chen was fearless! He immediately established the rule wager oath with her.
[Heh! Kid, then, the game, officially begins!!!]
