Chapter 144, 3:00 AM
Book lovers are hotly debating: What exactly happened? Join the discussion!
Zhongshu stared wide-eyed in disbelief upon hearing Lucifer's words.
Chimelong Shopping Mall fell silent instantly.
They believed Zhongshu's words and heard about Lucifer's new rules.
Everyone kept a certain distance from those around them, watching their surroundings warily.
They were terrified of becoming one of the thirty-three people who would be sacrificed.
No one spoke; the scene was very quiet.
"ah!!!"
A piercing scream shattered the silence.
Everyone turned to look at the middle-aged woman standing by the lava crater.
This charlatan who believes in God just pushed a little girl into a lava pit.
Her eyes were bloodshot, and beads of sweat were being shaken off as her facial muscles twitched.
He looked like someone who had experienced a great terror and had been driven mad by fear.
"People have to die, people have to die, I have to kill!"
I've already killed people, and someone died in my place. You can't kill me.
The older woman was very neurotic; she spoke incoherently.
Once someone set the precedent, the expressions of the others turned fierce.
If they don't listen to Lucifer, and if not thirty-three people fall into the lava pit within thirty-three minutes, who knows how Lucifer will punish them!
Zhongshu realized what they were about to do and shouted:
"Stop! Let me think of something, let me think of something!"
Nobody listened.
The scene began to stir.
The melee begins.
More and more people are being thrown into lava pits.
Zhongshu's eyes were practically popping out of their sockets.
Why would these people commit such a heinous act against innocent people?
Innocent people.....
Zhongshu's eye suddenly twitched.
There is no innocent person here.
Lucifer's voice suddenly reached Zhongshu's ears:
"This is humanity: ruthless to its own kind, yet cowardly to its enemies."
Lucifer's voice was filled with smugness and pride.
It seems that beating Zhongshu is a very interesting thing.
To him, Zhongshu was just a minor character.
However, the proud Lucifer only liked to win.
Zhongshu ignored Lucifer and slowly closed his eyes...
When the eyelids opened again, a chilling light burst forth.
Zhongshu said sternly:
"Li Xinyuan!"
Li Xinyuan turned to look at Zhongshu, waiting for his words.
Zhongshu pointed at the old woman who had killed the first person and said:
"Throw it down."
A cruel smile spread across Li Xinyuan's lips.
He jumped from the third floor, like an eagle spreading its wings, and grabbed an elderly woman in the crowd.
"drink!"
With a sharp shout, Li Xinyuan channeled his inner energy and his body soared into the sky.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared in disbelief at Li Xinyuan, who was flying into the air.
This person... can fly?
The old woman screamed in mid-air:
"I've already killed someone, you can't kill me now, I've already met my quota!"
Li Xinyuan chuckled softly:
"I've put up with you for a long time."
Li Xinyuan released his grip.
The woman screamed as she fell from the sky and into the lava pit.
Someone is counting.
This woman happened to be the thirty-third person.
They are safe for now.
At this moment, Zhongshu pointed to a man who had just pushed a little girl into a lava pit:
"And him too."
Li Xinyuan grinned maliciously, circulated his true energy, and flew to the man's side.
The man tried to struggle, but it was no use; all he could do was scream in terror and anger.
"There are already thirty-three people, what are you doing?!"
Zhongshu said quietly:
I don't like you.
Li Xinyuan glanced at Zhongshu in surprise, but without stopping, he threw the man into the lava pit.
Zhongshu began the King of Hell's roll call.
Each time he pointed at a person, that person would be thrown into the lava pit by Li Xinyuan.
No one dared to resist.
In their eyes, Li Xinyuan was no different from those dwarf demons.
Zhongshu's voice rang out softly:
"From now on, I'm going to set a rule."
No one is allowed to move.
Whoever leaves their spot will be thrown into that fire pit.
very useful.
No one dared to move.
Zhongshu has become another Lucifer who sets the rules for death.
He realized a truth.
Neither good nor evil can save these people.
Only order can.
Those who establish order must be devoid of emotion, or... be able to control their emotions!
Lucifer once said that the gentleman was the only one qualified.
It turns out that Lucifer meant that the gentleman was the only one qualified to make the rules.
Li Xinyuan flew to Zhong Shu's side:
"The situation is under control, so what's next?"
Zhongshu looked at the sky full of dwarf demons.
They remained motionless.
Zhongshu thought for a moment, then picked up a piece of gravel and threw it at a dwarf demon.
Li Xinyuan immediately became alert and quickly flew to Zhong Shu's side, blocking his way.
Although he didn't know what was wrong with Zhongshu, he could block the attack if the dwarf demon attacked Zhongshu.
The dwarf demon glared at Zhongshu, but made no other move.
Zhongshu breathed a sigh of relief:
"Throw these demons toward the blasphemous bell."
They were used to turn the hands of the blasphemous bell.
"Shoot accurately, we don't have much time."
Li Xinyuan's eyes widened suddenly.
He got it.
There is a barrier around the Bell of Blasphemy, and nothing but demons can get close.
To invalidate Lucifer's rules, the clock hands must not point to three o'clock.
Therefore, throwing these demons out and striking the blasphemous bell so that its time is no longer three o'clock will break the deadlock.
Li Xinyuan immediately took action, gathering his true energy and kicking out:
"War God Dragon King Technique, Sixth Form: Heavenly Crippled Leg!"
The dwarf demon was unable to move and could only watch helplessly as Li Xinyuan's feet grew larger before his eyes.
"Whoosh!"
"Bang!"
The dwarf demon was launched like a ball and crashed heavily into the blasphemous bell.
The hour hand moved a little bit toward the two o'clock position.
Li Xinyuan looked at Zhongshu with admiration in his eyes:
"You've got some skills, kid."
"You calculated that these demons wouldn't be able to move, didn't you?"
Zhongshu shook his head:
"I didn't calculate it correctly, so I tried throwing stones to test it out."
Li Xinyuan laughed:
"You, you dare to do this without being sure you're sure?"
If the devil were to attack you, I might not be able to stop him.
That's incredibly bold.
Suddenly, Li Xinyuan's smile froze.
He slowly looked at Zhongshu.
This kid had no intention of letting me protect him or help him stop the dwarf demon.
Otherwise, he would have asked me to come and protect him beforehand.
This kid still can't shake his saintly heart.
He was willing to risk his life to fight for a chance for those below him!
Li Xinyuan remained silent, but frequently unleashed his Heavenly Silkworm Kick, shooting dwarf demons one after another onto the Blasphemous Bell.
The clock hand in the blasphemy keeps turning toward two o'clock.
Zhongshu anxiously awaited the change.
After a long time, the clock hand of the blasphemous clock finally changed from three o'clock to two o'clock.
"boom!"
The blasphemous bell was reduced to dust with a violent roar.
Zhongshu was stunned.
The forbidden object... is broken?
Zhongshu quickly noticed that the hour, minute, and second hands of the Blasphemous Bell had not disappeared, but were falling from the sky and about to plunge into the lava pit.
Zhongshu hurriedly called out:
"That antique clock isn't the forbidden item; it's the three hands! Li Xinyuan!"
Li Xinyuan's body vanished instantly, reappearing above the lava pit, where he tightly clung to three pointers, each over a meter long.
With a flash, it disappeared into the air and landed at the edge of the lava pit.
"ah!!!!"
"roar!!!"
The dwarf demons screamed in agony.
A terrifying suction force emanated from the lava pit, swallowing the dwarf demons one by one.
As the last dwarf demon's claw left a deep claw mark on the ground, it was sucked into a lava pit, which then disappeared.
The ground was replaced with the mall's floor tiles.
Everyone stared in astonishment at this sudden turn of events.
Someone asked in a low voice:
"Is it over?"
Someone shouted excitedly at the mall entrance:
"The door's open! We can get out!"
The crowd cheered and ran towards the door, fleeing this terrifying place.
Zhongshu stared intently at the sky.
Lucifer is still here!
Suddenly, Zhongshu's pupils contracted sharply.
He saw Lucifer's finger twitch!
After the blasphemous bell appeared, Lucifer did nothing except speak.
What's going on now...?
Zhongshu suddenly remembered a possibility.
Lucifer was an angel, not a demon.
Lucifer was not at the 3 o'clock devil's carnival party!
If the Bell of Blasphemy has blasphemous power, then Lucifer is clearly the one being suppressed!
The Bell of Blasphemy has lost its power, and Lucifer has been released from his seal!
Zhongshu said sternly:
"Li Xinyuan! Run! We need to take the stuff back to Antique Shop Zero!"
Li Xinyuan dared not delay. Holding three pointers in one arm and Zhongshu under the other, he frantically fled outside.
"Ugh!"
A sigh was heard.
Zhongshu looked back.
Lucifer's half-head is looking this way!
