Chapter 331: Chapter 328 - ’You’re Really Like a Child

[Right side! Be careful of the right side! I hear a sound from the right!]

[Have we passed this road before? It looks kind of familiar...]

[(Blocked)]

[Everyone, pay attention to the top; it’s the easiest place to overlook!]

[Damn, what’s the use of reminding here? The barrage is so fast, can Su Ming’an even see it?]

[This is too risky. Number One Player shouldn’t have come unprepared to find the leader of the Soul Clan. He’s crashed, right? Not all NPCs will be so friendly towards him.]

[Every time you guys say he’s crashed, I never see it happen. How did another ’slap in the face’ come from this...]

"Swoosh!"

Three arrows shot from the right side were knocked down by Su Ming’an with a single sword strike.

These arrows were coated with a layer of purple liquid, which looked like poison.

The pitch-black tunnel stretched in front of him.

Su Ming’an had been moving forward for three minutes.

It wasn’t difficult to navigate the road. With the lighting, high Mentality Points had given him extreme acuity and reflexes; all attacks were predictably traced in his eyes.

Again, a fork in the road appeared in front of him, the left side lit up while the right side was enshrouded in darkness.

The voice of Sevya floated from somewhere:

"—Our white-faced warrior has come to a fork in the road again. Let’s look forward to what kind of choice he will make—"

Cheers and screams arose amidst the amplification, echoing in the empty tunnel, and reverberating repeatedly in his ears.

Su Ming’an didn’t hesitate to choose the right path.

The moment he rushed into this narrow path, he heard a "rumble" from behind.

Turning around, a gigantic round stone was rolling from the way he had come, with the ground emitting intense vibrations.

As he entered the right path, the stone shifted directions and rapidly rolled towards him.

He stretched out his right hand and initiated Spatial Vibration.

"Boom—!"

The tunnel shook violently.

The road behind him cracked open forcefully, the giant stone trembling fiercely, stuck within the crack.

He turned back, about to step forward when suddenly, the ground beneath him gave way.

A strong sense of danger climbed up his spine as the bricks under his feet quickly fell, and he abruptly stretched out his hand, grabbing onto the edge of the ground, his legs dangling in the air.

Beneath him, a layer of poison-coated sharp spikes pointed upwards.

If he hadn’t managed to grab onto the ground in time and had fallen down, he would now resemble a hedgehog.

The surrounding cheers grew even more intense, with the screams of the Soul Clan desiring to see blood incessant in his ear. They shouted loudly for him to quickly fall.

In his view, the barrage also became chaotic, with many reveling in misfortune voicing out, stating that it was dramatic that Number One Player was about to die here because of his recklessness.

And Su Ming’an looked at these people, thinking it indeed seemed like a drama.

They thought he was being reckless, as if in some play, little did they know he was actually facing a mirror.

He clung to the edge, his body swaying precariously, using one hand forcefully managing to stabilize the other on the ground.

The strength in Shadow State was really not great, struggling to support his entire weight. His nails dug into the cracks of the bricks, barely giving him a point of leverage.

He clung to the ground, about to climb up, when suddenly, he saw a shadow cast from above.

The leader of the Soul Clan, wearing a top hat and swaying a cup of fresh blood, was looking down at him.

"Need help, Father?" Sevya asked.

"If possible," Su Ming’an said.

"Then beg me. Apologize for not acknowledging my words." Sevya said.

Su Ming’an narrowed his eyes.

His palm shifted slightly to the right, clutching another brick.

"You really are like a child," Su Ming’an said, "so desperate for the approval of adults, why don’t you go find some slaves and have them praise you."

Sevya’s gaze turned savage.

Blood-red nails broke through his white gloves, growing at his fingertips like ten sharp blades.

He thrust towards Su Ming’an’s left hand like stabbing with a dagger, and Su Ming’an swiftly withdrew his hand.

Left with only his right hand clinging to the ground, he looked like he was about to topple over.

"Now, beg for mercy from me in the eyes of all the Soul Clan," the blood-red in Sevya’s eyes was particularly striking in the darkness, "...and I will forgive you."

His hand landed on Su Ming’an’s other hand, appearing to be ready to thrust at any moment.

"Your ideology is so naive it disgusts me," Su Ming’an said, "I must refuse."

Sevya’s hand suddenly trembled violently.

It seemed as if fierce flames were dancing in his eyes, and his expression grew increasingly rigid.

Sevya violently thrust downwards, aiming to pierce through Su Ming’an’s palm.

In the midst of Sevya’s violently trembling angry gaze, Su Ming’an suddenly released the ground he was tightly clinging to and fell downward.

Sevya was initially stunned, then violently reached out to grab him.

The next moment, Su Ming’an’s Spatial Vibration hit the totally unguarded opponent.

[HP-1430! (Spell resistance! Weakened!)]

Invisible fluctuations circulated around Sevya, and the intense vibrations caused the edge’s bluestones to begin exploding.

Sevya’s figure stiffened in place, while Su Ming’an had already landed on a sharp long needle.

The next moment, the white Cross Light of the Spatial Displacement flashed, and Su Ming’an appeared behind Sevya, giving him a fierce push.

The push came and went quickly at the opponent’s spine, after which Su Ming’an turned and ran.

As he had expected, there was a small door not far away; it seemed Sevya had entered through this escape door.

He quickly passed through the escape door, slammed it shut, and the sound of electrical explosions came from behind.

[BOSS battle upgraded.]

[Current boss (Sevya), Combat Power: 3000]

[Win probability comparison: 14%]

As Su Ming’an suddenly stepped into a brightly lit area, he saw a private room in front of him, which might be Sevya’s room.

Above the room, various screens were open, broadcasting various scenes inside the tunnel.

The exclamations of the Soul Clan came from behind the wall, and with Sevya’s furious voice echoing, Su Ming’an no longer hesitated and rushed towards the large bed.

"Bang!"

The escape door was violently broken open, and electricity surged out.

A bloodied Sevya burst out, sending a palm strike in his direction.

The electricity, flowing like water, quickly wrapped around Su Ming’an, bringing with it a bone-piercing pain, and a yellow icon flashed in the upper left of his vision momentarily.

[Struck by "High Rank Lightning" spell, falling into a paralyzed state.]

[HP-1! (Fixed damage!)]

One health point deducted.

Even in such a furious state, Sevya did not use a lethal attack capable of killing a person, but rather used a purely controlling skill that did no damage.

"Why didn’t you kill me," Su Ming’an stood by the bed, looking utterly unruffled.

"..." Sevya did not speak.

He seemed to be extremely angry.

After a brief silence, the rage in his eyes began to gradually subside.

On the front of emotion control, this Soul Clan leader was doing quite well.

"Kill you? What a waste," Sevya sneered, his tone no longer as indifferent as before, "A being capable of transforming me into a high-ranking member of the Soul Clan is worth some serious research. Without the help of a deity, having you around isn’t bad at all."

At last, Su Ming’an received his answer.

If they weren’t going to kill him, then everything was negotiable.

His gaze shifted slightly, looking toward the clue column that contained information on Su Rin.

The abilities of Su Rin that had been unlocked thus far were "Transformation" and "Bewilderment."

Aside from Transformation, which was ineffective against Sevya who was already a member of the Soul Clan, there was "Bewilderment"...

As his gaze fixed on "Bewilderment," a panel suddenly popped up.

[Bewilderment: You can use this skill on any NPC in Pulaya to make them believe your words. Each use will deduct Resource Points, the amount of which depends directly on the strength of the bewitched target.]

[Would you like to use the Bewilderment skill on Sevya? (According to a comparison of Combat Power, using the "Bewilderment" skill requires 1500 Resource Points)]

"..." Su Ming’an was stunned.

He glanced at his current stock. After clearing the first level, he now had 600 Resource Points.

In front of him, Sevya had already approached, his hand shaped like a blade, seemingly aiming to knock him out.

At that moment, Su Ming’an suddenly went limp and fell back, towards the direction of the bed.

Under Sevya’s astonished gaze, Su Ming’an, upon touching the bed, vanished in an instant.

...

[You are the great Demon King guarding the castle. Please prepare for a fight to the death with the Brave ones who will come to challenge you!]

The colorful, merry prompt appeared before his eyes.

Su Ming’an walked down the stairs carpeted in red, pushing open the doors of the church.

Bewilderment was a trump card, and his second trump card was this night-time level of "Demon King and the Brave."

He had learned that when he entered this personal level, his body in the real world would also disappear.

Therefore, as long as it was night-time, and as long as he could touch a piece of furniture like a bed where he could sleep, he could hide in an invincible space.

But there were limitations.

Seeing him vanish on the bed, Sevya would undoubtedly wait outside.

If he couldn’t earn 1500 Resource Points in the second level, going back would be a waste.

Although he still had another trump card, the Random Spatial Teleportation Scroll, which could instantly teleport him away from this city of the Soul Clan, it also meant he could never return to this city again.

Thus, even though he had just been plunged into a life-or-death crisis, nearly walking on the edge of a blade, he wanted to try to break this situation rather than just crush the scroll and run away.

If he could bewitch Sevya...

He pushed open the doors of the church, hearing the system’s voice continue to broadcast:

[However, as a newly assigned Demon King fresh out of the gate, your resources and strength are limited.]

[Currently, you possess six hundred points of battlefield resources and two soldiers willing to follow you.]

With twin beams of white light, puppets branded with "Jin Qiangwei" and "Ebony Devotee" appeared on the red clay in front of him.

[This is the second level of "Demon King and the Brave."]

[Second level mission: Stay in the Demon King City for 6 hours.]

[You can accumulate Resource Points by maintaining a balance between the battlefield forces, completing the level mission, undertaking random tasks, or fulfilling the wishes of your subordinates, to expand your grand Demon King city!]

[Blessings to you—O Demon King of unparalleled evil!]

...

The system broadcast ended there.

Su Ming’an opened the temporary game interface and found many new things added.

In addition to being able to maintain the balance between the Red and Blue forces, a "Soldiers" section had also appeared.

Unfortunately, inside it, there were only two names, "Golden Rose" and "Ebony Devotee."

He looked at the panels of the two.

[Name: Jin Qiangwei

Personality: Dignified, Generous, Affinity.

Expertise: Diplomacy, Etiquette.

Selling Price: 600 Resource Points]

...

[Name: Black Devotee

Personality: Loyal, Constant, Steady.

Expertise: Combat, Military.

Selling Price: 400 Resource Points.]

...

He did not understand the significance of these two soldiers’ skill panels at first, but he saw the "Selling Price."

When Resource Points were tight, he could also sell these two soldiers.

He glanced at the battle report, having gained one hundred thirty Resource Points for maintaining a balance between the two sides.

After waiting a moment, a sudden event popped up before his eyes.

[Sudden Event: Blue Team Raid!]

[The Blue Team General has decided to launch a raid on the Red Team’s army with good effectiveness, resulting in a significant shift in the situation!]

In the center of the sand table, the previously stalemated Red Team army retreated as if drained of water, and the balanced situation changed instantly.

Su Ming’an remembered that an important way to gain Resource Points was to maintain the balance of the battle.

He immediately thought of investing Resource Points to help the Red Team army when he suddenly saw a tip next to the panel:

[You can assign your soldiers to special operations to impact the situation. At the same time, your soldiers will automatically develop other soldiers to strengthen your team.]

[Current assignees available: Jin Qiangwei, Black Devotee.（Tip: This mission requires a diplomacy-oriented talent）]

...

Su Ming’an understood.

This was a talent deployment game!

He immediately assigned Jin Qiangwei to the field, and with a flash of white light, the Jin Qiangwei puppet disappeared in front of him.

At the same time, on the floating sand table, a red triangle icon representing Jin Qiangwei appeared on the Red Team’s side along with a time indicator below.

["Jin Qiangwei" is on a mission, remaining time: 1 hour.]

He saw that he could also send out the Black Devotee to complete the "homework copying" mission at the Demon King City stele.

However, the system panel indicated that the stele’s task was not compatible with the Black Devotee, and might not yield good results.

So, he simply sent both Black Devotee and Jin Qiangwei to the battlefield.

One hour later, both returned, and he saw the mission settlement.

[Jin Qiangwei’s persuasion convinced the Blue Team leader to abandon the raid plan, maintaining the balance of the battle.]

[Mission Evaluation: Great Success!]

[You gained 80 Battle Resource Points.]

[Black Devotee successfully persuaded a new soldier on the battlefield, "Moonlight Watcher" was impressed by the might of the Demon King and joined the team.]

A white light appeared.

The puppet labeled "Moonlight Watcher" joined Su Ming’an’s army of soldiers.

Looking at the three soldiers in front of him and the new temporary task floating over the sand table, Su Ming’an suddenly felt that he had fully grasped this game.

Delegate talent, hang up and position.

...Simple.
