Chapter 757: The Other Half of the Divine Artifact
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Of course, the defensive power of every part of Goldie’s body was equal, so the defense ability of its head and limbs was exactly the same, but Goldie’s head was round, and its mythical part was its head. A bald round head shaped like a big light bulb was not meant to withstand force, so the tail couldn’t stick on Goldie’s head.
“It turns out that a bald head can be used for this purpose.” Da Zi’s eyes shone with pride.
“Purple shadow, soul dismembering,” said the Cursed God coolly. Even four tails were enough, as it only needed three tails to perform this move. Each additional tail would only increase the attack’s lethality.
The four long tails released an unpleasant shrill and shook violently, leaving its shadows in the sky. Goldie also let out a loud sound.
There was a thin crack in the middle of the core between the Cursed God’s limbs that continued to extend outward. But with the increased injury of Goldie’s passivity, Goldie’s tenacity was also increasing.
“Ah!” Goldie roared, its blood vessels expanded, the blood vessels in its temple bursting open. Its hands bent down to grab the two tails that were piercing into its legs. Fresh blood gushed out mercilessly. Goldie’s palm had been cut by a sharp thorn on the long tail and was now bleeding as well.
Goldie looked up to the sky and roared, “Lift up!”
The Cursed God sank, its six sharp legs stabbing into the ground, and the invisible air was released from under it, setting off a dust ring that was visible to the naked eye.
The long tail tightened, and the two tails entwined around Goldie’s arm. At the same time, Goldie gripped the two tails in its legs. The remaining length of the tail wiggled in the sky crazily, while the bleak sound of the disrupted air reverberated in the dark castle.
Dumby switched to Yin Soul Dominator mode and reached out to the sky with arms outstretched. A soul whirlpool revolved above Dumby’s head, tinting the whole hall gray.
There was a flash of light, and the soul shock wave swept across the whole castle. The shockwaves that went through Goldie’s body didn’t harm it, but when the soul shock wave landed on the body of Cursed God, it was like a heavy hammer had hit its head with a heavy thump.
The Cursed God struggled desperately. It had originally wanted to trap Goldie’s tail, but at this moment, it was the one that was trapped. The Cursed God shifted left and right, and green blood seeped out of its nostrils, ears, and eyes.
Di Zi’s body was compressed into a ball, its 48 pairs of wings completely covering its body. The majestic Thunder Titan Centipede interrupted the vanity space. “Argh—”
The Thunder Titan Centipede used one of the most aggressive elements in the world. Da Zi’s legendary quality finally revealed itself.
The roar of dragons sounded throughout the castle, as the dark Thunder Titan Centipede transformed into a sharp spear that fell from the sky. A bloody red light illuminated the wall. Four booms in quick succession preceded Da Zi splitting the Cursed God’s backshell. It was as if countless spears had pierced its flesh. When the lightning was gone, a burning smell lingered in the air.
“This move is called ‘Thousand Worlds Lighting strike,’” said Da Zi smugly.
“Why did you increase your lethality so much this time around?” Gao Peng asked in surprise.
Da Zi usually tried to cruise by, hiding in the background and discreetly supporting the rest during fights. This attack had caused huge damage to the Cursed God. Gao Peng saw that its state had switched from moderately injured to severely injured.
“It’s a secret.” Da Zi proudly lifted its head. “From today onward, I won’t coast along anymore!”
Gao Peng thought this was strange, but since Da Zi didn’t want to give a reason, Gao Peng couldn’t force it. Although the Cursed God had been strong, in the face of the five familiars” siege, it had grudgingly died.
Its head had been smashed in by Goldie, its back scorched by Da Zi’s lightning. Its white flesh that one could see through the cracks on its body was scorched, even its blood having evaporated completely.
Gao Peng collected the Cursed God’s body and said solemnly, “If the first stage of this castle’s bosses is so difficult to deal with, will there be a bigger demon in the back?”
“There are no abyss demons in the castle…” said the King of Robotics doubtfully. “The Cursed God was the master of the castle.”
“The Cursed God really the master of the castle?” Gao Peng was stunned. The hall that was nearest the entrance was where the master of the castle lived? What about the two or three floors to which the escalators on both sides led? Why were there so many rooms upstairs?
The King of Robotics glanced at the stairway and shook its head. “The thinking of a Cursed God isn’t normal. They will never submit to any existence. It was already beyond my expectations that this Cursed God could stay in a castle. Generally, Cursed Gods live in the wild.”
“The ones upstairs… must be his servants.” The King of Robotics was hesitant.
Gao Peng was at a loss for words. The master stayed in the living room, yet the servants were in their rooms? This was a strange thought process!
Fatty Big Sea glanced at the King of Robotics then quickly withdrew its gaze and secretly contacted Gao Peng through their contract. “Gao Peng, there are bits of divine artifacts below. There’s a basement beneath us.”
Gao Peng turned to the King of Robotics and said, “Let’s go open the basement.”
“Hey, hey, hey…” Fatty Big Sea called out to Gao Peng through their Blood Contract. “You’re crazy! Why tell it?! Isn’t it better if we just took it directly? Gao Peng, this guy doesn’t look simple. Even in my heyday, I might not have been a match for it.”
“You in your heyday weren’t a match for it in its heyday,” Gao Peng said through the contract.
“Shush! How could that be? It would’ve been at least an equal battle.” It was one thing for Fatty Big Sea to say that it couldn’t, but another thing when Gao Peng said it couldn’t do something.
Gao Peng shook his head secretly. He thought, “You and the others can only form five or five separate bodies, apart from your main bodies.” The King of Robotics in front of him only had one.
The King of Robotics nodded, bent down, and opened its right hand. The castle sank suddenly. With the King of Robotics at the center, the area crumbled neatly, as if it had been cut into infinite equal parts by some force, and the sliced bricks floated in the air under an invisible force.
When the King of Robotics waved its right hand, all the bricks turned to ash. A basement the same size as the hall appeared in front of everyone’s eyes. There was plenty of rubbish inside of it.
“There are many precious ores. Which I can use to recover?” asked the King of Robotics.
“They’re all yours.” Gao Peng waved generously. In fact, these minerals were of little use to Gao Peng, because they had no related attributes and didn’t match the needs of his familiars. Most of the rubbish was just scrap metal, but aside from ores, there were some materials that were of relatively good grades.
When all the materials were cleared, there was only one item left in the corner of the basement. This item was also the other half of the Divine Well of Darkness, which was also the purpose of Gao Peng’s trip.
This fragment looked exactly the same as the fragment of the Divine Well of Dark that Fatty Big Sea held.
