Chapter 916: Chapter 572: Scapegoat (4K)_2
This is an unreplicable coincidence... it is also the last gift from the Crying Hero.
His appearance stemmed from Li Changhe’s fear, and to avoid this result, he left these behind.
"Alright, Old Lead. Since you call yourself a catastrophe," Li Changhe muttered softly to Old Lead: "Let me see your new abilities."
"Big Lead, psychic storm!"
There was no reaction in the forest, but the passengers fleeing through the forest all felt a sudden jolt. Their perception was entirely disrupted.
Meanwhile, the golden arcs on the body of the train conductor suddenly exploded. Uncontrolled lightning bolted from his body, blasting nearby train crew members away. Some crew members were even split in two by the golden lightning. They never expected their boss to strike them.
"What are you doing?" A crew member, while dodging, shouted towards the conductor but was caught up by the lightning and immediately turned into a charred corpse. This caused the few remaining crew members to exchange glances and then turn tail and run.
"I can’t feel my lord anymore!" the conductor shouted in horror, sensing that the divinity he was granted was spiraling out of control.
His lord couldn’t continue to provide him with divinity either, and their connection had vanished as well.
"My lord!" the conductor cried in agony as uncontrollable and violent divinity burst from within, seeping into his arms with blood.
He plaintively called out to the lord he worshiped, but there was no response. He had been granted too much divinity, and now all of it was out of control.
"I see." At that moment, the sound of footsteps on leaves came from behind Li Changhe; it was the Moon God.
He walked up from behind Li Changhe: "You’ve mastered the psychic storm? In that case, no one will be able to use the divinity given by the external world. In a task I encountered, I came across a natural prison that held a divine existence, wrapped in a perpetual psychic storm. Inside, even spiritual power can’t be used. The divine existence inside can’t even receive the faith of its believers."
"So it can be used that way too, are you done over there?" Li Changhe turned to look at the blood-stained Moon God on his shoulder and asked.
"Of course, as soon as the box arrived, the other side had no chance of victory," the Moon God said, holding a glass vial in his hand, the crimson blood inside slightly undulating. That was the Philosopher’s Stone.
In the confined space of that train, fighting against two high-ranking fighters from the Battle Power Rankings, the Three-eyed Skeleton had no chance.
He Feng used the dragon’s roar and gasoline barrels to burn through the Black Fog, and then the group smashed the Three-eyed Skeleton.
If he had just honestly traded with the Moon God, maybe his fate wouldn’t have been so miserable. This saved the Moon God a bunch of resources.
"I was going to see if there was anything I could help with over here, but it looks like I was overthinking," said the Moon God holding the Philosopher’s Stone and walking deeper into the forest: "Then... I’ll be on my way to take care of business."
"Speaking of which, since the people in your Guild are targeting you so much, why not come and join us?" Li Changhe spoke looking at his retreating figure.
The fact was indeed as such, for this operation the Moon God did not get any support from the Black Forest. What was the point of staying in such a Guild?
At General Mountain, at least Li Changhe and his people would have his back.
But the Moon God didn’t turn back, just waved his hand and disappeared deep into the forest.
To him, the Guild and such were unimportant.
He had already obtained the Philosopher’s Stone, and now he was on his way to attempt to save the girl.
Li Changhe could only turn back and look at the train conductor who was howling in agony.
The conductor was not worth his intervention anymore, with a mass of uncontrollable divinity rampaging within him.
He was so tormented by that divinity that he couldn’t concentrate. Not to mention fighting.
Originally, Li Changhe wanted to test how much effort it would take to kill a being of divinity with his current strength.
He hadn’t expected the psychic storm’s effect on the God’s Chosen to be especially significant.
Seeing He Feng, Zhao Jiu, Gold Tooth, and others approaching.
Li Changhe asked, "Which of you hasn’t unlocked divinity? Just kill him."
"Then we’ll take care of this train conductor, our colleagues are on their way here," said Gold Tooth: "The one who just made a move... was it really that one?"
Gold Tooth was referring to the blue arm that had struck before. Upon receiving a positive affirmation from Li Changhe, Gold Tooth showed a look of joy.
With this, the Ghost Train was no longer a threat; previously, they were worried that the elusive divine existence might jump over the wall in desperation and infiltrate the Real World, bringing unimaginable disaster to humanity.
Now that the Real World is under the guardianship of the great ancestors, the danger posed by the other side has been greatly reduced.
It seems that the official action against the Ghost Train will soon restart.
Moreover, the reemergence of Ancestor Chiyou must surely be causing many people to lose sleep, right?
So, several people employed various means to knock out the conductor, then broke the conductor’s arms and legs.
After that, Li Changhe and He Feng walked towards the edge of the forest. After brushing past more than a dozen official players, they finally left the fringe of the forest.
"Let’s hope the Moon God succeeds," the two chatted while applying their disguises, preparing to return.
This time, by obtaining the Philosopher’s Stone for the Moon God, both parties had reaped significant benefits. It was a win-win situation.
But certain individuals who learned of this news were truly unable to eat or sleep in peace.
In an office area within a certain skyscraper, people were whispering amongst themselves.
"According to reports from our members."
"A Ghost Train in Hua Country has been sabotaged; a Divine Existence took action. But it was repelled by another being. It is said to have been forced to cut off its own arm and flee."
"At present, it can be confirmed that this being is none other than... the foremost of the ten Primordial Demon Gods from Hua Country’s mythology, General Chiyou!"
"General... A Demon God with villainous tendencies actually helping humans?"
"From now on, it is unlikely that any Divine Existences will dare to act within Hua Country’s region. The General made it clear; trespassers die."
"Hua Country is really lucky... Why don’t we have such great ancestors to protect us?"
Someone sighed; with the appearance of Chiyou, international dynamics were about to shift.
Meanwhile, White Deer had also successfully reunited with his teammates.
He had two lives on his line and couldn’t risk being found by the authorities.
Luckily, with the forest being so vast, he had plenty of places to hide.
"Forget about this deal; the Ghost Train didn’t even make it to the final station before it got blown. Looks like we’ll have to look for a new train platform in the future." He said to his companion, "If it hadn’t been for my quick thinking, I’d probably be dead too. Two Divinities took action!"
"I was in carriage six, I saw everything," his companion said in amazement. "But doesn’t that person realize that the train is a major way for many player organizations to acquire supplies? By doing this, he’s offended several big organizations in one fell swoop. Do you have any intel on him? Surely, there will be many organizations that want him dead now."
Some large Guilds, even though they knew of the train’s existence, had no intention of wiping it out; rather, they used it to acquire various supplies. They had effectively had one of their supply lines cut.
Moreover, those ’hemp bandits’ who had robbed on the train would surely place the blame on the initiator.
They didn’t want to be regarded as enemies by those big organizations. Especially that organization that wanted the Philosopher’s Stone, they must be seething with rage by now.
"He’s strong, a 22-bang expert!" White Deer thought for a moment and said, "His last name is Chen; his teammates call him Chen Mazi. He must be an Extraordinary Soldier; he was the Military Family Ancestor who had been invited earlier. He might just be the apostle of that great ancestor. As for his weapon... it seems to turn black when he uses it. Anyway, he’s very strong, not someone we can handle."
"Okay, quickly sell the news. We don’t want to get dragged into this!"
As the secret messages were passed.
Soon, a large organization received the intel.
The train was hijacked, and most of the goods meant for trade were lost.
The hijacker, named Chen, an Extraordinary Soldier, with a weapon that turned black in use...
Therefore, the executives of a player organization roared in their meeting room.
"He’s the only one capable of such a deed!"
"He stole our Secret Treasure last time, and our spoils the time before. And now he’s gone and robbed us of our Philosopher’s Stone!"
"The Fifth Devil King, Chen Guang!"
"You and I are irreconcilable enemies!"
