The black piece of flesh started expanding, growing to become a blob of flesh about as large as a normal person with a devilish female face.
It was a monster.
Although it had normal female features, on its head was a pair of longhorns, both its hands and feet grew long, sharp claws, at the end of its spine was a long, thorn-covered tail.
The monster was trapped inside the blood red glow, screeching.
『 Rahhhhhhhhhh——–! 』
The blood glow was broken through.
But this fueled the Murder Clown’s blood thirst instead.
[Bloodbone Demoness, you don’t have time for last words]
The Clown’s hands turned into sharp blades, piercing through the monster’s shoulders.
The monster was skewered in place, struggling to get free.
Suddenly, the backside of the Murder Clown armor opened up, revealing a pair of terrifying skeletal wings.
The skeletal wings flared up in waves of a blood-red glow, and stabbed forth.
They pierced through Bloodbone Demoness’ body.
Countless boney feathers on the wings started to invade Bloodbone Demoness’ body from its wounds.
『 Arraggggg!! 』
Bloodbone Demoness screamed in hatred and agony, 『 No, how could you possibly know me! 』
[Your death, the world’s fortune] the Murder Clown spoke curtly.
As the wings of bone spread out, the monster was instantly ripped by the immeasurable force.
——-it was literally ripped apart by the wings!
But the pieces of its corpses didn’t fall down, still stuck fast onto each side of the wings of bones.
[Ahahahahahahaha!!] the Clown was laughing in frenzy.
The thick mist of black blood filled the air, not dissipating no matter how much the wind blew.
The Murder Clown lightly shifted its body and the wings of dark light once again appeared on its back.
The terrifying skeletal wings have been completely covered up, but the two halves of Bloodbone Demoness’ corpse appeared from inside the dark light.
You could clearly see the half that the head was attached to is stuck in a horrified expression.
This scene sent chills all over to everyone watching, chills that wouldn’t easily go away.
[Ahahahaha! How delightful]
The Murder Clown was laughing with its eerie high-pitched voice.
Suddenly, it became serious again and started to speak in a sincere tone like giving a speech.
[I have declared, all those that joins the Game of Eternal will soon be met with the only fate of death]
[I hope my ideal will be accepted by you all]
Still holding the cold and stiff smile with the corpse of a monster on its wings, the Murder Clown peered closer and closer at the screen.
A few people couldn’t help but look away, trying to escape the Clown’s stare.
[Even demons] the Murder Clown looked at the two halves of the corpse one after the other, [will not be using the Game of Eternal to enter our world]
[Ah? I seem to have just spoiled a very terrible secret]
The Murder Clown placed both hands on its lips, acting shocked.
[She only ate the Eternal Pill; why would a monster suddenly appear from her body?]
[Could it be; the Game of Eternal is having a grand sale? Buy the Eternal Pill, get a monster parasite]
[Friends, would you like a parasite in you as well?]
The Clown asked.
Having the truth revealed in front of them, the human world became silent.
The Clown shook its head, chuckling while covering its mouth.
It started to imitate the old voice and said: [The next Game of Eternal will begin at the same time tomorrow]
[Do you want to be like Liu Shi Man and receive unimaginable power? Then quickly come sign up, we always hope for more participants]
[The next Champion could be you]
[Goodbye, and let us meet at the same time tomorrow]
This is the ending to every Game of Eternal, used to lure more people to join in, but now it’s the Clown that’s saying it.
Everyone stared at the corpse on the Murder Clown’s wings, hearing that familiar line, they couldn’t help but shiver in fright.
Eternal life?
What a fucking joke!
No one else was regretting not joining, no one else was eager to try it out, and no one else cursed and ridiculed the Clown.
Because eating the Eternal Pill will give you a demon parasite!
What they’re seeing right now is the very epitome of a convincing example!
Humans have always trusted their eyes more than anything else.
At this very moment, every Professionist was filled with fright mixed with relief.
[The next Game of Eternal, we shall meet again and hope that you will sign up ——–for a parasite and death!]
[Pft – ahahahahahahaha!]
The Murder Clown flew up as it laughed in a frenzy, disappearing between the layers of cloud.
It wasn’t until its figure was completely gone that everyone’s Holo-Brains shut off again.
Once again, the entire planet was plunged into silence.
The S.W. Divine Temple.
“A critical hit” Gu Qing Shan praised.
“Right, everyone has already seen the demon parasite, the Game of Eternal will have no way to overturn this”
Zhang Ying Hao opened a bottle of champagne.
“I very rarely drink this type of thing, but we have to drink it now, to celebrate this victory”
“Nicely done” he raised his glass to Ye Fei Li, “such a bloody sight, even I feel impressed”
They knocked glasses.
“But then, what exactly was that monster that appeared at the very end?” Zhang Ying Hao was curious.
“It’s a type of demon, once it enters our world, it can quickly parasite off a person and give birth so that more and more of its kind will appear” Gu Qing Shan replied.
“After this, since they’ve all seen that parasitic demon, probably no one else will dare to try the Game of Eternal again” Liao Xing said with conviction.
“Why are you so sure?” Ye Fei Li asked.
“Because the delusion of eternal life has already been broken for them”
“No one would be willing to survive and kill countless people only to become the host of a parasite afterwards”
Everyone nodded.
“Victory has been decided”
Gu Qing Shan continued: “All we have to do now is wait for the results, let’s see how many people join the next Game of Eternal”
Suddenly, Anna poked him.
“How are your wounds?” Anna asked caringly.
“It probably won’t heal that quickly” Gu Qing Shan wryly smiled, “it was just about entered the first stage of recovery”
He glanced at the War God UI a bit.
There’s about a day left on the hourglass.
Which means he’ll have to enter the cultivation world in one more day.
With wounds this serious, only in the other world, either Qin Xiao Lou or another person well-versed in healing can help him heal this quickly.
“You can’t raise your sword yet?” Anna asked.
“Right, I can’t fight yet” Gu Qing Shan answered.
“You were wounded this badly because of me, so don’t worry, I will definitely protect you” Anna’s eyes lit up gently as she said.
Zhang Ying Hao, Liao Xing and Ye Fei Li exchanged knowing looks.
“What are you looking at?” Anna turned around and asked.
“Hungry” Zhang Ying Hao rubbed his stomach and said.
“Right, it’s been quite a while, let us go back to eat” Gu Qing Shan said.
…
After dinner, Gu Qing Shan were sitting on the living room’s sofa, chatting with Ye Fei Li and Zhang Ying Hao.
This was a rare moment of rest for them.
Liao Xing staggered over, his face swollen and asked: “Where’s Anna?”
“She just left, saying that she wanted to go shopping, what happened to you?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“Hah, all I did was stand in front of her bedroom and she beat me up this badly” Liao Xing sat down on the sofa and complained.
“You probably tried to install something sneaky and got found out” Zhang Ying Hao very accurately guessed.
Liao Xing shook his head, denying it while saying: “I’m telling you, a girl should really be more gentle. Such a woman that instantly resort to violence as soon as there’s a problem, if you were to seriously take her as your partner for the rest of your life, then ——-“
Anna opened the door and came in.
“Then you will definitely live a fulfilling life after marriage” Liao Xing finished.
“…” Zhang Ying Hao.
“…” Ye Fei Li.
“Back so soon?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“I forgot my keys” Anna grabbed her keys, turned and left.
Liao Xing laid all the way back onto the sofa and muttered: “Almost scared me to death…”
