Chapter 893: Chapter 551 Not Very Auspicious

Li Changhe looked indifferently as the corpulent corpse gradually charred in the flames.

The face skin on its chest also twisted and deformed in the fire before ultimately turning to ash.

According to the information from the employee who had sought death earlier, this person was originally a criminal pursued by the police.

After the doctor gave him a new identity, he became the owner of this factory, possessing the company, luxury cars, a wife...everything the original owner had. And he helped "The Interval" maintain the factory under the guise of legitimate operations.

Now, abandoned by the doctor, it could be said that he had met his just desserts.

Unfortunately, the doctor had still managed to escape.

Without a doubt, he was the true mastermind behind this factory. The techniques for altering bodies and the methods for maintaining the facade all came from him.

It was also because of these methods that "The Interval" had grown from a smaller guild than [General Mountain] to its current size within just a few months.

They even managed to employ those fierce ghosts to act for them.

Of course, it’s all in vain now.

Even if members of The Interval are still active in the outside world, now that they’ve lost their platform and a large number of players, they’re not a force worth noting anymore. Players that rise by such malicious means don’t manage to create much upheaval once they’ve lost their leader and resources.

The truly dangerous one is still that ’doctor’.

He had been capable of developing a small guild to such a degree within a few months. His means and ambition were not to be underestimated.

Especially after he discovered Li Changhe had killed the red-armored player, he decisively murdered the remaining employees and thoroughly abandoned the factory. He even managed to have a calm and collected conversation with Li Changhe afterward.

This left an unpleasant feeling, different from the enemies Li Changhe had encountered before.

This fellow was too cold and calculating, like a venomous snake that could slither out of the shadows at any moment.

Compared to an enemy who faces you head-on, this kind of adversary is far more troublesome.

In the office, Li Changhe’s Hawk Eye Magic Eye couldn’t even find a trace of him.

He must have used some ability to erase his tracks immediately after realizing the red-armored players had failed, or perhaps he had used some sort of teleportation skill to flee the factory. Finding him now was basically impossible.

"Now I’ve encountered a troublesome one," Li Changhe thought to himself as he walked out of the office and noticed the Blood Moon still emitting ominous shadows in the sky.

He took a detour to the other side and saw the Battlefield of the Moon God. The fight had been intense there when Li Changhe was facing the red-armored player.

The moment he saw the battlefield, Li Changhe wondered if he was watching a tokusatsu film.

In the ravaged factory yard, there lay several battered corpses. Some had been cleaved into two segments, others smashed straight into the ground. Their deaths were indescribably tragic.

In this yard, two gigantic figures were locked in combat, and with their struggle, the factory buildings too crumbled and collapsed.

Under the crimson moonlight, the Moonlight Giant, over ten meters tall, was gripping the skull of an equally gigantic black skeleton.

With force in its left hand, several cracks had already appeared on the skeleton’s skull.

The black skeleton was not showing any signs of weakness either; its dark bone claws were gripping the giant, leaving a wound several meters long on its body.

However, with moonlight converging, the giant’s wound healed in an instant.

"Is that the Moonlight Throne of old brother Moon God? I haven’t seen him in a month, and he’s already piloting a Gundam," Li Changhe marveled at the sight of the Moonlight Giant, finding the skill resembling the Manifestation of Heaven and Earth to be very impressive. If he had a skill like the Moon God’s when facing the Green Lion Demon King, he wouldn’t have been bitten.

"At the same time, it has high-speed regeneration... Is it Chi Yao’s Red Moon Effect? That Moon God’s strength and defense have already surpassed many players. Such defensive power, I bet even Falling Stars wouldn’t break through easily. As for this..." Li Changhe sighed as he looked at the black skull: "It’s rare to come across a ghost monster I recognize, a two-segmented corpse."

This was the very ghost monster Li Changhe had encountered during his first task, the two-segmented corpse.

In ancient times, extremely evil people were executed by being cut in half at the waist, to prevent their killing aura from turning into demons. The authorities would then bury their bodies on opposite banks of a river.

They utilized the everlasting nature of the river to wash away their resentment. However, if their killing aura was too potent, it would result in the creation of a two-segmented corpse.

When the two halves of the body were reforged, they would transform into a fierce and vicious ghost, wreaking havoc on the area.

Due to the depth of their resentment, usual methods would hardly kill them. Hence, in that task, the girl who could not yet control divine powers risked activating Demon Armor to gather the water again and reseal it.

Actually, such a vicious ghost would at least be a boss in an Instance.

Its colossal body and overwhelming killing aura would greatly trouble players.

Especially those players who aren’t high-level, lacking equipment or skills against Mysterious Species. Facing a two-segmented corpse would be... utterly useless. That’s why many new players wouldn’t even approach Mysterious Instances.

Not everyone has Big Lead.

Sadly, the two-segmented corpse that should have been imposing is now facing the Moon God, the unrivaled Moon God!

Li Changhe could clearly feel that spirited fellow return to the battlefield.

"Is it because you’re watching?" Li Changhe glanced at the Blood Moon in the sky.

The next second, the Moonlight Giant raised its sword-wielding right hand high and with a slash akin to a falling galaxy, it heavily struck down on the skull.

At that moment, the ground beneath Li Changhe’s feet trembled.

Meanwhile, the black skull’s cranium appeared dense with cracks.

Then, the Moonlight Giant smashed its fist onto the fractured skull, forcibly shattering the head bone and pulled out a figure from within.

That was the body the two-segmented corpse possessed, as well as the Ghost Eel it relied upon. Even something as strong as the two-segmented corpse would gradually fade from this world after losing the Ghost Eel.

Although these vicious ghosts had gained a body, once the body was destroyed, they no longer posed any threat.

"I’m willing to become your symbiote..." The man shouted in terror, trying to plead, only to be crushed to death by the Moonlight Giant. The black mist wafting out from the rotten flesh was also slashed in two with a sword stroke.

The Moon God’s nature was always to loathe evil intensely; when it came to hunting players, transforming players’ corpses into factories, there was not the slightest hesitation.

Subsequently, the Moonlight Giant gradually dissipated. And with it, the Blood Moon in the sky disappeared as well.

When the rain once again fell to the ground, it washed away the bloody smell in the yard.

"Are you finished over there?" the Moon God glanced at Li Changhe and asked.

"One got away, couldn’t catch up," Li Changhe replied, then asked, "That move you just did..."

"Before I upgraded to LV10, I had already prepared my Sequence. The Kuafu Sequence," the Moon God explained: "After I upgraded to LV10, the Kuafu Sequence opened up my Moonlight Throne upgrade path·Giant statue. By the way, what’s your Sequence?"

"Isn’t that a coincidence?" Li Changhe gave an ok gesture and said: "I’m Jiuli Sequence, the authentic descendant of Soldier!"

The Moon God mused, "Jiuli and Kuafu... our combination doesn’t seem very auspicious."
