638 Horror (1/2)
If Zhou Wen were to die just like that, he would likely suffer the same fate. He naturally didn't wish for Zhou Wen to die.
”I'm fine.” Zhou Wen sheathed his Bamboo Blade and shook his head.
At the instant he struck out to kill the black-armored warrior, Zhou Wen switched to Gods Retreat before killing it.
The jade infant absorbed a large amount of taboo power and nearly exploded. However, it was about the same as before. There were no abnormal fluctuations. From the looks of it, killing the black-armored warrior wasn't considered murder.
Of course, this was only Zhou Wen's guess. Perhaps the taboo power fluctuations from murder wasn't obvious.
Zhou Wen looked down at the black-armored warrior's corpse. His corpse was rapidly disintegrating as a crystal dropped. It was an Essence Energy Skill Crystal.
Zhou Wen extended his palm and sucked it over. The crystal reached Zhou Wen's hand and he used his phone to snap a picture. It was indeed an Epic Essence Energy Skill Crystal.
Blade Executioner Crystal: Epic
With the Blade Executioner dead, the words on the stone slab beneath Zhou Wen's feet vanished.
”Do you still want to continue walking? If we encounter a Mythical creature, we will probably be doomed,” said Liu Yun with a heavy expression.
Zhou Wen knew that it was a viable possibility. He wouldn't believe that there were no Mythical creatures in such a strange dimensional zone.
He looked at his phone. The game was still downloading, and there wasn't any indication of the progress. He didn't know when it would finish downloading.
”Let's continue,” Zhou Wen said as he bit his lip. A day was very short. If they couldn't untie the dead knot caused by the three ironclad rules, they would probably die.
Thankfully, Zhou Wen still had Truth Listener and Demonic Neonate to use. Even if he encountered Mythical creatures, he wasn't powerless against them.
However, Zhou Wen was still somewhat worried. He didn't know if Companion Beasts would be affected by the ironclad rules of Netherworld City. If they were affected as well, they would die if they weren't summoned with their feet touching the ground. That would be tragic.
But now that things had come to this, he had to fight for his survival. All he could do was walk forward.
”Junior Brother, go ahead. I'll follow behind you. Since you wish to scout the way, I can help you from behind if you encounter danger,” said Liu Yun.
There was nothing wrong with what Liu Yun said. Furthermore, Zhou Wen hadn't pinned his hopes on him at all, so he continued walking forward. However, this time, Zhou Wen walked even slower and was even more careful.
The only thing that worried Liu Yun was if the black-armored warrior that Zhou Wen had killed would appear when he stepped onto the same stone slab.
Although he was worried, Liu Yun was still prepared to take the same path. He wanted to see if the black-armored warrior would appear again. That would give him a better idea for the remaining journey.
However, before Liu Yun reached the black-armored warrior's stone slab, something went wrong.
He stepped on a stone slab that Zhou Wen had stepped on before. The stone slab lit up as a few words appeared.
Cause of death: Horror
”F*ck, what the hell is this? You clearly stepped on it just now. Wasn't it fine?” Liu Yun tightened his nerves and looked around.
He didn't know what horror was. The slab that Zhou Wen had stepped on previously clearly wrote 'Death by blades.'
