427 Cathulhu’s World is Harsh for Protagonists



Chapter 427 – Cathulhu’s World is Harsh for Protagonists

A day passed after Xiaomao met Mao Miaomiao. The battle between Nobunaga and Belial was over.

Against all odds, Nobunaga stood tall even though his left arm was missing. He chewed the dantian crystal of Belial while staring at the last opponent in front of him.

Explorer glanced at the corpses of Liu Bei, Jiang Wei, and Wei Yan in disbelief. He then looked at their soul orbs and dantian crystals that had been ejected from their bodies.

“This is impossible! How did we lose to one weak NPC?!”

Nobunaga rolled his eyes. He turned toward the corpse of Nero and Paimon and touched them. Then, their bodies vanished.

A flood of their memory entered Nobunaga and Sima Yi’s minds. Within a few seconds, they learned all their skills and abilities. Not only Nero and Paimon’s abilities became the warlord’s power, but Liu Bei, Wei Yan, and Jiang Wei’s skills were also transferred to Nobunaga as their corpses were absorbed. They transformed into a streak of light and entered Nobunaga’s brain.

Nobunaga’s eyes coldly mocked Explorer and the corpse of Belial.

“This is the difference between you and me, brat. Every time someone dies, I gain that person’s power. James Huntsman and Zhou Yu died, so I got their powers, too. If you want to blame someone, blame Solomon for giving me power! But I have to admit. James Huntsman’s abilities are useful. He can copy the abilities of the living, but I instantly gain the abilities of the dead. His Dao synergizes with mine.”

Flame emerged from the wound of his left shoulder, and a new left arm was regenerated. The phoenix flame of Zhou Yu instantly healed him and restored his Qi. At the same moment, Belial’s corpse transformed into a streak of light and entered Nobunaga’s forehead.

The level of Nobunaga changed. It jumped from 9999 (50,000) to 9,999 (99,999). His inner energy was now comparable to a quasi-sage instead of a regular deity.

RUMBLE

New dragons rushed down from the higher floors to the boss room. Then, they found only two men.

The newcomer was Baal, the Orochi. His companions were also there as they shared the same body. Clem also came out to put a stop to Nobunaga’s rampage.

Nobunaga smirked at every dragon. He opened his arms and invited them.

“Come on. Show me what you’ve got! What happened to the strongest demon dragons around here?!”

“…”

Clem looked around and didn’t find Belial. She narrowed her eyes and looked at the ground.

‘Damn protagonists. When we thought we could have won, a bat-shit crazy guy shows up. Who would have thought that a quasi-sage would have lost to a quasi-deity? This reminds me of Mao Miaomiao…’

Clem clicked her tongue and turned around to flee while Baal roared and rushed toward Nobunaga.

Nobunaga snapped his fingers, and all nine heads of the new Orochi exploded in unison. Their soul orbs were ejected from their bodies along with their dantian crystals.

Clem sweated profusely while she exposed her back to Nobunaga and Explorer. Her feet stopped on her track as she could no longer move.

DING

<Oda Nobunaga has activated the Mandate Domain of Shogunate. Without Nobunaga’s permission, you cannot move. You cannot attack Oda Nobunaga unless you have more followers than the followers in his dantian universe.>

<Oda Nobunaga has activated the Mandate Domain of Sixth Heaven’s Demon Lord. If you attack or intend to attack Oda Nobunaga while the domain is active, your domains will be destroyed, and you will be immediately executed. Eject your soul orb and dantian crystal afterward and disable any self-resurrection abilities from nearby artifacts or domains.>

‘Goddammit! What kind of trickery is this?!’

Clem complained as Nobunaga’s mandate domain was unreasonable. She had no idea how he had cultivated it.

Accepting her defeat, Clem, in her dragon appearance, raised her hands.

“I surrender. Don’t kill me.”

Nobunaga sneered at Clem for being a coward. He snapped his fingers again, and Explorer was engulfed in flame.

“SIMA YIEEEEEEEE!!”

Explorer screamed before his entire body was burnt to ash. His soul orb and dantian crystal dropped from his corpse.

After killing everybody, Nobunaga deeply breathed. He returned control of the body to Sima Yi.

[Oda Nobunaga]: “I did what I could. I’m out of gas. You do the rest.”

Sima Yi let out a long sigh, “Alright. I’m getting rid of the variables.”

[Oda Nobunaga]: “Please do. I don’t trust that dragon.”

Sima Yi turned to Clem. He pointed his finger at her.

Clem was in despair. She pleaded, “Don’t kill me, please! I can transform into a humanoid dragonewt. You can do whatever you want to my body, but please don’t kill me! If I die again, Mu-Nyang will forever destroy my soul!”

“None of my business,” Sima Yi ignored the pleading. He activated his mandate domain.

SWUA

Suddenly, a portal was opened behind Sima Yi, and a hand pierced his back and exited through his chest. The withered hand held the heavenly fate crystal.

Solomon’s cold voice followed, “My fourth fate crystal.”

Solomon’s hand pulled the fate crystal into the void. Sima Yi turned around and tried to get it back, but Clem suddenly pounced on him.

Because of the wound, Sima Yi and Nobunaga failed to react. Clem bit Sima Yi’s head off and upper torso off in one bite

Without a heavenly fate crystal, Sima Yi and Nobunaga were no longer protected by the goddess luck. Clem crushed the flesh meat with her teeth and activated her domain. She then swallowed both soul orbs, boosting her strength by another notch.

The headless lower torso of Sima Yi was engulfed in black flame. As if he was punished by karma, his body was also turned to ash. The dantian crystal of Sima Yi and Nobunaga was left behind.

“This is what you get for killing my comrades, fool! KEKEKEKEKEKE!!”

Clem burst into laughter and turned her head toward the large portal, which could lead her to the South Pole. She smirked and muttered, sending a message to her lord.

“Lord Solomon. I sense rats outside the portal. Should I go out and eat them all?”

Without showing his appearance, Solomon ordered her through voice transmission, “No. Instead of facing those protagonists, I want you to teleport to Divine Theocracy Earth. Kill all humans and destroy that planet for me.”

“Hahaha! That’s an easy task!”

Clem looked around and collected the rolling dantian crystals on the ground into her mouth. In glee, she swallowed them all and disappeared into a teleportation portal that she opened.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

After Clem had left, Solomon emerged from another portal. He gathered the soul orbs and absorbed them into his body. The dantian crystals of Sima Yi and Nobunaga were included.

The memory of Sima Yi and Nobunaga entered Solomon’s mind. He learned all their powers and gained their abilities.

“This is it! This is the power of the true protagonist! I AM INVINCIBLE-“

SOEK!

While Solomon was celebrating, two long swords pierced through his back while one katana stabbed into his brain.

The man with a feminine face, Ma Moxi, had been lurking in here before Sima Yi had started fighting. His body was uncloaked. He wielded two long swords and appeared behind Solomon.

Meanwhile, Chase Sheffield, holding the katana, also uncloaked as he dealt the damage. He aimed for the killing blow so that Solomon wouldn’t have a chance to retaliate.

However, despite the brain being damaged, Solomon chortled.

“HAHAHAHA!! YOU CAN’T KILL AN ENTITY WITH PUTY ATTACKS! SCRAM!”

Solomon’s power burst out, sending shockwaves and pushing back both Chase and Ma Moxi.

The two men were knocked flying. They glanced at each other and vanished at the same time. A second later, they reappeared next to Solomon.

Solomon widened his eyes and bellowed before the two protagonists could attack him again.

“MANDATE DOMAIN OF SIXTH HEAVEN DEMON LORD! DIE!!”

Chase and Ma Moxi sensed the crisis. Their bodies vanished instantly.

BOOM!

The boss room caved outward. Even the dungeon core was destroyed.

Without the dungeon core, the dungeon could no longer operate or give mana to the dungeon master. Solomon frowned as he could no longer receive backup energy from the dragon nest.

Solomon looked around to find the karma strings of both men as he didn’t sense them in his domain. However, both Chase’s and Ma Moxi’s karma strings were as elusive as Mao Miaomiao’s, he found nothing.

“Pesky rats! I guess my protagonist’s luck is not enough. I need to hunt the weak ones before I fight those two! Who else is still alive?!”

Solomon operated his game system to see the surviving protagonist-class players and threatening residents.

Xiaomao

Mao Miaomiao

Ran Tae

Bianca Dullahan

Lee Jinyong

Zhuge Liang

Ma Moxi

Chase Sheffield

Hiiro Narukami

Those were the remaining people that could pose a threat to him. Solomon focused on a few names and tried to predict the future by calculating their karma.

“Where are the weak ones… Lee Jinyong, Ran Tae, Bianca, and Zhuge Liang… Oh, there you are!!”

Solomon snickered and gathered his strength to open another portal. However, the pricking pain in his head dizzied him.

It came from the wound that Chase Sheffield had left behind. That katana and Chase’s power destroyed a portion of his brain, and the wound couldn’t be healed for an unknown reason. As for the wound from Ma Moxi, they were already healed.

Solomon grumbled. The headache was unbearable. He felt like his head was about to burst.

“What power was that?! I’m an entity. Why can’t I heal physical wounds?! Or was it a soul attack?”

Solomon thought of soul injuries. He looked into his soul orb and noticed that it had a huge crack at the center. Then, his expression turned dark.

“Damn coward! Don’t let me find you. I’ll definitely kill you!”

Because of the intense pain, Solomon canceled his plan. He dragged his feet back to the internal portal and entered it. The next moment, he was in the Netherworld Realm.

As soon as Solomon arrived, he ordered his subordinates around the portal.

“Close the portal. I’m going back to recuperate.”

The dragons saluted and deactivated the portal platform, shutting the entrance to the Netherworld Realm.

.

After long days of combat and killing, Solomon finally got his sweet break time. He sat on his bed and lay down, hoping to get a rare sleep to recover from his soul injury.

An hour later, Solomon snapped open his eyes as he sensed visitors. He sat up and looked at the three deities, who entered his resting quarter.

In front of him, the old men were kneeling. They kowtowed and reported their arrival.

Solomon gazed at the deities of Olympus. He clicked his tongue.

“You are late! I almost died!”

The three elderly men, Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades looked up. They greeted their benefactor.

“Per requested, we’ve brought the reinforcement. What should we do?”

Solomon wearily waved his hand.

“Each of you, head to the three original game worlds. Bring the dragon armies with you. I want World One to disappear. I want Asgard and Slave Dungeon of World Three destroyed. As for world two, I want all mortals dead! Unless those three worlds are destroyed, Xiaomao and the other protagonists will continue to receive positive karma for protecting them! Crush those worlds so that the protagonists in my game world cannot get any stronger!”
