Chapter 725 - A Talking duck (1/2)
The temperature in the dark passageway returned to normal. The burns on Xiao Luo’s body began to heal at a rapid speed. He calmed himself before he called out to the Master God of Chaos once again, “Senior, can you let me enter?”
The temperature in the dark passageway returned to normal. The burns on Xiao Luo’s body began to heal at a rapid speed. He calmed himself before he called out to the Master God of Chaos once again, “Senior, can you let me enter?”
The Master God of Chaos’ reply came after a brief pause. “Lowly human! Do you think you have passed the test already? Dream on!”
“Invincible rolling boulder!”
A round boulder, measuring about ten meters in diameter, fell from above the dark passage with a resounding thud. The enormous boulder, shaped like a wrecking ball, rolled toward Xiao Luo, and the entire passageway rumbled from its movement.
Was this the Master God of Chaos?
Would the Master God of Chaos stoop so low and use such cheap tricks?
Xiao Luo furrowed his brows and had doubts about the actual identity of the Master God of Chaos. As the spherical boulder rolled closer, Xiao Luo sliced it cleanly into two using his dragon blade. The two sections of the split boulder swooped past him.
“Senior, if you want to stop me from entering, then it would be better for you to show yourself. Can you stop using tricks like these?”
By this time, Xiao Luo had scant respect for the Master God of Chaos, who simply refused to show himself. It felt like someone was hiding in the shadows, pulling levers to activate these booby traps. Xiao Luo headed straight toward the other end of the passage.
The Master God of Chaos suddenly became exceedingly furious. He condemned Xiao Luo’s actions and cursed him with spiteful words.
“God-damn human! You have offended a God’s prestige by your foolishness!”
“Hurry and stop. You cannot advance any further. Otherwise, the Lord, your God, will send you to the ninth level of hell where you will neither live nor die.”
“You will not listen, huh? Then the Lord, your God, will dispatch his Chaotic Soldiers. They will twitch your muscles, peel off your skin, and light your sky lantern!”
The more Xiao Luo listened, the more annoyed he got. Despite the commanding tone of the voice, the more he spoke, the more it became clear that he did not deserve respect. Xiao Luo was now fuming and wanted to find the person behind these tricks. He was going to drag him out of the shadows, no matter what. In the middle of the passageway, the path became wider. It was the intersection between the front and the back, with a diameter over ten feet. On its walls, a white fire glowed—it resembled incendiary white phosphorous fire. It was not the slightest bit warm and was not too bright either.
Xiao Luo spotted a massive door on the other end.
The enormous door emitted an ancient and forbidding aura—as if it had seen a lot over the years. Above the doors were copper nails neatly arranged horizontally and vertically. The door handle took the form of two copper lion heads biting into two copper rings.
Could the Master God of Chaos be in here?
Xiao Luo stopped in front of the door. Filled with curiosity, he reached out with his hands and pushed the giant door open.
“Goddamn human, stop your foolish actions now. There is a wild beast sealed in there. If you let it out, there will be devastation, either in the Arcana Land or in your original world!” Xiao Luo could hear the slightly nervous voice of the Master God of Chaos booming through the passageway.
Xiao Luo hesitated. But since being in here, his ears were almost getting calluses from listening to all those hoaxes. He refused to believe what the voice said and used a significant amount of strength to push open those massive doors.
What greeted him was a dazzling light and a hall with an area of about a hundred square meters.
It looked very modern, and there was technology in use. There were tiles on the floor, and the walls were painted all white. The suspended ceiling looked somewhat like that of a Hua Nation general assembly hall. In the center, there was a leather sofa. Beside it stood a desk with a computer equipped with a voice input device. On the wall facing the desk, twenty-six silver screens combined to form a large screen. On the giant composite screen, one could monitor the situation in the passageway.
Xiao Luo was shocked to find such a modern office in the Dimension of Chaos. But what surprised him the most was the white duck sitting in front of the desk. The duck was wearing clothing like a human. It was dressed in a navy uniform and had a red tie hanging down its chest. It looked just like a cartoon character he used to watch as a kid—Donald Duck.
As soon as Xiao Luo came in, he locked eyes with the duck. A human and a duck stared at one another for over ten seconds.
“The one who was talking earlier on was not you, right?” Xiao Luo asked. He broke the silence first and pointed at the duck.
“It’s not me!” the duck answered.
The duck shook his head to deny it, but as he forgot to switch off the microphone, his voice echoed throughout the area. There was a vast difference between the duck’s voice and the voice that Xiao Luo had heard before. But no matter whose voice it was, anyone could tell that it was a voice of a person shouting at the top of his voice. This was a duck that could talk?
Was it a duck or a goblin?
Deep down, Xiao Luo was a bit stunned. But he knew that the Master God was not a duck. This duck was fooling around.
He walked toward the duck for a closer inspection. He looked carefully to see if it was a real duck. Or if it was a person dressed in a duck outfit.
The duck had a temper. Taking off his headset, he stared at Xiao Luo and scowled, “You goddamn brat, what are you looking at? Have you never seen a duck as good-looking as me? You better believe that this Grandpa Duck here will destroy you in body and spirit!”
Destroy body and spirit?
