694 Chapter 694: Play
Caen looked around, taking in the shock and disbelief of the people surrounding him. For the mortals to react like this, it was clear that this world had no knowledge of gods or divine beings, and witnessing such extraordinary power was beyond their comprehension.
Elysia, Fortunay, and the other Young Gods were quite calm. It wasn’t their first time Mortals die but their faces revealed no surprise.
They had never seen Caen wield his power so openly and decisively before. His actions seemed drastic, but Caen knew that he had to establish some boundaries in this unfamiliar world. If they were to explore and interact with the inhabitants of Earth, they couldn’t afford to be taken lightly.
“You gave him an easy death. What a pity,” Elysia shook her head, sighing as if she truly believed that it was a pity.
Caen’s expression remained calm, but his eyes showed no pity. “These mortals are really too courageous to even try to kill us despite such pathetic strength of theirs.”
Fortunay stepped forward, his voice gentle but firm. “That wasn’t fun. There are still so many people here. Can I have more fun?”
He looked around, observing the crowd in this area. Everyone in the crowd felt a chill run down their spines as if they were being started by a predator.
ฦฅandasnovelยทฦom Caen nodded. “I wanted to start a fun game here after understanding this world. But who would’ve thought these mortals would be so pathetic…”
“Let’s start the first game then,” he further stated, tossing the small compressed cube in the distance in a random direction.
The cube was tossed casually, yet it flew thousands of miles at a speed that even missiles would’ve failed to reach.
“Good.” The Young Gods laughed, looking at the people around them.
There were many who recorded the scene of driver’s and uploaded it to various portals, while the others called the police to help.
Unfortunately, before the Gods, even the police weren’t of help. The entire area was sealed by some divine power, turned into an arena by the Young Gods.
Inside the sealed area, no one could enter. Even the cop cars had to stop outside, unable to enter. This was a place which soon caught everyone’s attention.
Many cop cars stood outside the sealed area, in disbelief as to what was happening. They didn’t believe in aliens, but they couldn’t explain this in any other way.
Thanks to the barrier, the connection of the phones was cut as well, making it impossible for the people to upload anything else.
“Since you mere mortals wanted to challenge our authority, then prove your worth!” Caen’s cold voice fell in everyone’s ears.
In the center of the area, a small portal opened up, connecting directly to the Abyss.
From the portal, a Nightmare Beast stepped out, walking on its four legs, having a wolf-like body.
The eyes of the Nightmare Beast were blood red, and it was born in the Abyss, having an overwhelmingly dark presence.
“If even one of you can survive for ten minutes, I shall consider you worthy…” Caen spoke.
The crowd gasped in horror as they laid eyes on the monstrous Nightmare Beast. Its presence alone sent shivers down their spines, and they couldn’t fathom how they were expected to survive, let alone challenge such a creature.
Panic and fear spread like wildfire, and some even tried to run, only to find themselves bumping against the divine barrier that sealed the area.
Caen and the Young Gods watched with detached interest as the mortals struggled with their newfound reality. Elysia shook her head, her expression a mix of boredom and disappointment. “This looks hardly worth our time. These mortals won’t last more than a few seconds against the Nightmare Beast.”
Fortunay grinned, relishing the thrill of the upcoming spectacle. “Oh, I bet you’re right. So let me help them a little. Let’s see if any of them manage to surprise us.”
With a slight wave of his hand, Fortunay used his own power. A single sword appeared at the door of every person in this Domain. It was up to them if they were to use this sword or not. However, the outcome of the battle was already certain.
These people had no way to defeat the Nightmare Beasts, but they could definitely survive for ten minutes if they used the weapons and their surroundings to their advantage.
As the terror-stricken crowd reluctantly faced the monstrous creature, a few individuals among them began to show surprising bravery.
Even though they were scared, they came to terms with this scary reality and picked up the swords.
They hadn’t used a sword in the past, but now they had no choice. Gathering all the courage, some of them were prepared to fight for their lives.
Their eyes met the terrifying gaze of the Nightmare Beast, and instead of crumbling, they found a resolve they never knew they possessed.
Caen raised an eyebrow, slightly intrigued by their unexpected resilience. “Well. Perhaps there’s a glimmer of hope for entertainment after all.”๐๐๐๐พ๐๐ง๐xt.๐๐ช๐
The battle commenced as some mortals attacked the Nightmare Beast with everything they had.
Most of the humans chose to pick up the sword and run away to hide, while only a rare few stayed behind to fight back.
In the eyes of the ones who were running away, hiding was the best option. They were in a concrete jungle with tall and strong buildings. There were many places to hide for them.
They sprinted through the streets, their hearts pounding in their chests, seeking refuge in any nook or cranny they could find. Some managed to scramble inside buildings and to rooftops, hoping to gain some advantage against the Nightmare Beast by hiding on higher ground.
The adrenaline-fueled pursuit for survival turned the once bustling streets into an eerie ghost town.
Meanwhile, the brave few who chose to stand their ground faced the Nightmare Beast head-on.
Their swords clashed with the monstrous creature’s claws and fangs. Every strike reverberated with divine power, creating shockwaves that shattered windows and cracked pavements.
