Chapter 1283: Chapter 568 Attraction
After Li Changhe killed the Spider Mountain God, the people in the old temple were both amazed and terrified.
They feared the man-eating Spider Mountain God, but they feared Li Changhe, who they regarded as a sacrificial offering, even more.
When Brother Sheng took action, not a single one of them tried to stop him. In fact, some even felt secretly pleased.
So, when Li Changhe revealed his player strength, almost everyone was huddled in a corner, shivering in fear, lest Li Changhe sought revenge on them.
In today’s world, where the Evolution Game has been exposed, the existence of players naturally became a hot topic.
But in fact, cases involving players that are hard to distinguish between true and false frequently emerge in society.
Those players who gained extraordinary powers often resort to violence when treated unfairly.
Not to mention the distant past, just a short while ago, someone falsely accused an employee of sexual assault, leading to that employee losing his job and his good reputation being destroyed. Even though the court acquitted him, he had been socially dead. His wife and daughter also were pointed at and gossiped about at work and school. The pressure was immense.
Meanwhile, the accuser gained a lot, without paying any price, even profiting handsomely. She became a so-called feminist icon, gallivanting in high-end places every day.
In the end, the falsely accused employee could not endure it any longer, stormed into the accuser’s home, and tore off her skin. He also found several online trolls who had posted about his wife and daughter and dismembered them.
It was only after he was arrested that it was discovered he was a player.
So you see, offending a player can be a deadly affair.
They would ignore rules and impose punishment on certain people. So-called violence overriding laws.
And right now... they had offended a powerful player, and all within this lawless environment. If he truly decided to kill, no one would know.
Meanwhile, the tank-top-wearing men who had blocked the entrance earlier were frantically fleeing the old temple.
With their leader beaten down, they didn’t dare linger in the old temple. Even if the outside world was full of monsters, they had no courage to stay. Begging for mercy, they sprinted out.
However, Li Changhe didn’t really intend to do anything to them.
He just blew up the so-called Brother Sheng’s dog head. He was the troublemaker within this small shelter, and he was the main conspirator in planning to use Li Changhe as a sacrificial offering.
And to dare look at the girl with that lecherous gaze, a gunshot to the head was letting him off easy.
Perhaps some would say, as a high-level player with exceptional strength, why stoop to the level of a regular person?
But Li Changhe had a clear understanding of why. It was related to the power he possessed.
Because he had strength, he had the power to change everything.
What if he were just an ordinary person without any means of defense?
Then the outcome would be that he would be used as a sacrificial offering to the Spider Mountain God, and the girl he loved the most would fall into the most tragic fate imaginable.
Since they wanted to drag Li Changhe into such a tragic fate, why should he be courteous to them?
What? To protect the remaining people?
Ridiculous. There are always those who like to cloak their dirty deeds with a noble cause, as if by doing so, their actions are justified.
Just like the Bloodriders, just like the Tianyan Association, putting on a façade of acting for the sake of humanity, wanting Li Changhe to die.
Wasn’t he butchered by Li Changhe?
Being generous with other people’s lives, what a bunch of bullshit! Why don’t they go die themselves?
The same logic applies, why doesn’t Brother Sheng go and become the sacrifice himself?
Afterward, Li Changhe noticed that, after the Spider Mountain God died, a certain power began to spill out from its body.
It gave Li Changhe, Xiao Nan, and Yun Ting a sensation of comfort.
Li Changhe felt as though his body was being cleansed by warm water, making him exceptionally refreshed.
"Is this what fortune is?" Li Changhe looked at his palm and felt something intangible flowing past him.
"That’s right, it was enshrined as a Mountain God by a major figure of fortune, protecting a realm. With fortune upon it, it could gather the incense offered by believers. That is, it could gain some divine power. If it were worshipped for a long enough time and by enough people, it could become a divine creature," Xiao Nan replied to Li Changhe in [Friends], "And now that it’s dead, the fortune it carried becomes unclaimed, gradually dispersing back into the heavens and earth."
"Does fortune benefit us?" Li Changhe asked in [Friends], "Does it do any good for your injuries?"
"It’s not much use to me," said Xiao Nan, shaking his head slightly, "But it can speed up the recovery of divinity. What about Brother Ting? As a Symbiotic Body, this kind of fortune should be a great nourishment for her."
Yun Ting chimed in, "I can indeed feel my strength gradually replenishing, and it’s even healing my younger brother."
Hearing this, Li Changhe scanned his player panel in his mind.
Indeed, he found that his energy and stamina were recovering faster than before.
Just with breathing, he recovered about 3% of his energy.
If this rate of recovery could be maintained, a player’s combat power would skyrocket.
Unfortunately, as the Spider Mountain God’s fortune faded away, the rapid recovery effect disappeared.
Although Yun Ting was also a demon and had the potential to be enshrined as a Mountain God, without being enshrined, she could not retain this fortune and could only watch it slip away.
"If I could gain the power to bestow fortune, could I enshrine Brother Ting as a Mountain God? I wonder if there are any learning restrictions for this ability," pondered Li Changhe, very interested in this ability.
"Hehehe, am I going to have to call myself the Mountain God of General Mountain from now on?" Yun Ting joked, "I’m not even sure if your Tian Ce General can do the enshrining."
Bestowing fortune... Sword Brother probably has some clues, He is after all the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, He might understand more about fortune.
Then, he said to the people huddled in the corner, "Did the Mountain God tell you anything before I arrived?"
From the corner, a middle-aged man hesitated for a moment before standing up and saying, "It told us that at night, the demons of the Hundred Thousand Mountains will hunt for food, and it could protect us from threats. Its price, however... was sacrifices..."
With that, the middle-aged man revealed a bitter smile, "We had no choice, please don’t be angry with us. Had I warned you, I might have become the sacrifice. Not everyone can protect themselves as you do."
He was the person who had previously wanted to warn Li Changhe not to approach the old temple, but after being stopped by his companions, he had kept quiet.
If Li Changhe had run away because of his warning, he would have been made the next sacrifice.
"Fine," responded Li Changhe, "Go light a bonfire in front of the old temple and wait for rescue."
"That might... attract other demons," the middle-aged man said hesitantly.
"Ha, isn’t that a good thing?"
