It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 317: You, why are you pretending to be so arrogant?
"Boss~"

As soon as he returned to the courtyard, Xia Kai rushed up to him with a flattering look on his face.

"Why do you look like you took an aphrodisiac, kid?"

Liu Zheng pushed him away a little in disgust.

"Hey, because it's a good harvest. Look."

Xia Kai took out four items, namely a rune, a fake eye, a pistol, and a bottle of potion.

Liu Zheng took them all, and introductions to the items popped up one by one.

"Name: Blood Rune"

"Type: Equipment"

“Quality: Excellent”

"Effect: When a severe blow is dealt to the target's internal organs, a small amount of vitality can be restored."

"Note: Don't ask me whether intestines count as internal organs!"

"Name: Peering Eye"

"Type: Equipment"

“Quality: Excellent”

"Effect: Increases perception by 2 points, giving you a chance to see through hidden objects on the surface."

"Note: What is this? Let me try pressing it."

"Name: Refined Hunter Pistol"

"Type: Equipment"

“Quality: Excellent”

"Effect: After every three shots, the power of the next shot will increase by 20%."

"Note: Is this why you missed the target with your first three shots?"

"Name: Enlightenment Potion"

"Type: Props"

“Quality: Excellent”

"Effect: After use, the player's perception and spirit are increased by 5 points, lasting for 10 minutes."

"Note: I gave you this so you can use it to write your paper, not to have a party!"

“It’s really a great harvest.”

He nodded.

Although they are all excellent items, three of the four are equipment, and their effects are quite practical, which is quite good.

"Pick one for yourself."

Liu Zheng said.

If it weren't for the player Xia Kai, no one else would pay attention to these things.

"Can I have this pistol?"

Xia Kai asked cautiously.

From a practical point of view, this pistol is definitely the most valuable.

The effect of "increase the power of the next shot by 20%" can achieve the effect of 1+1 greater than 2 when combined with some special bullets.

Moreover, he did lack a good weapon.

Not to mention that this is a long-range weapon, which is very consistent with his timid personality.

"can."

Liu Zheng nodded.

It was just an excellent-level weapon, and he had no shortage of long-range weapons.

If you really want it, go back and tell Amelia or Beethoven. I don’t believe they won’t give it to you.

"Thank you, big guy, hehe."

Xia Kai’s face was about to break from laughing.

"It's just a piece of excellent quality equipment, is it that serious?"

Liu Zheng was speechless.

Even if he knew that the difficulty of the Metropolis dungeon was abnormal, and therefore the production rate of items was abnormal, it wouldn't be like a long drought finally ending in a downpour, right?

"Boss, you don't know that the production of equipment-type items in the Hell game is very low. The veteran I know has completed three dungeons, and he only has three pieces of equipment, one of which was exchanged for a clearance reward."

Xia Kai explained.

"You know it so clearly. He is your biological father and he tells you everything."

Liu Zheng complained.

"Of course, he must be hiding something. But the low production of equipment is probably true."

Xia Kai said firmly.

"Yeah, it seems so."

He thought about the many items he had obtained. There were indeed very few equipments. They were basically props, and most of them were disposable.

"Old Dou, where is the thing I want?"

Liu Zheng didn't dwell on this matter and looked at the helmeted man.

"Clang!"

The helmeted man knocked on his helmet and then dragged out a box from behind him.

Judging from the appearance of the box, it should also belong to Karkarens College.

The Doumo opened the box, which contained an umbilical cord of the Son of God, three holy grails, and a large blood gem.

"Hmm? Didn't they say that there were no more blood gems in stock?"

Liu Zheng asked in confusion.

"Oh, this is what happened when Dou Ge and his friends killed three strange guys."

Xia Kai explained.

"Why only one piece?"

"I don't know. After the three guys were killed, their bodies disappeared, and there was only this blood gem on the ground."

Xia Kai spread his hands and said.

"Well, it's also an unexpected gain."

He nodded and put everything away.

"Where are the remains of the Twisted Saint?"

he asked again.

"clang!"

The hooded man took out the remains of the twisted saint from the cloak on his back.

“Why is there only this much?”

Liu Zheng frowned.

The twisted saint's body before him was at least half the size of what he had seen through the statue.

"On our way back, a blood-red moonlight suddenly shone down. Half of the Twisted Saint's body melted directly, and then the moonlight bounced back."

Xia Kai explained.

"My goodness, is the Moon Demon trying to possess the Twisted Saint?"

Liu Zheng smacked his lips.

You know what, this is actually a good idea.

If possessing a human would lead to a decrease in strength, then possessing a Twisted Saint would definitely have the lowest loss rate, and strength might even increase.

Fortunately, the Twisted Saint was strong enough to push Him back.

"Well done."

He praised the Twisted Saint.

Of course, there was no response.

Who will the Moon Demon possess next? Will it be Beethoven?

If that's the case, then Liu Zheng can justifiably explode his Moonlight Holy Sword.

"Old Bei, if you don't help, don't blame me for being disloyal."

Liu Zheng showed a smile that made everyone shudder.

"Where's that woman?"

Liu Zheng asked.

Only then did he realize that Yucenar was missing.

"Yousena tried to activate the secret library's mechanism, but I killed her on the spot."

Andrina said.

"Ok?"

Liu Zheng looked at Xia Kai.

"Boss, it's true. That woman summoned a lot of screaming big-headed dolls, which made our heads buzz."

Xia Kai replied quickly.

"Well, okay, as long as you get the things."

He nodded.

"I already know the truth about Art's beastly disease. The mastermind will soon arrive. The battle between me and Him will determine Art's fate."

Liu Zheng said to everyone.

"What can we do for you?"

The hunter from the gunpowder workshop looked shocked, and the machine gun hunter Yura said while trying to suppress his excitement.

"Leave here immediately to avoid being affected by our battle."

He said.

"If I never come back, then you will help me protect him and the people in the Church of Pain."

He pointed at Xia Kai.

"The Gunpowder Workshop will definitely complete your request until the last drop of blood is shed."

The gunpowder hunters saluted Liu Zheng solemnly. "Boss, I don't have anything good. But you may need this. If you don't mind, take it first."

Xia Kai touched his neck and took out something from the system space reluctantly.

Liu Zheng took it and looked at it. It was a close-up photo of a fat and big-eared man with a smile that showed a person with low intelligence.

"Name: Tiger Brother's Photo (One-time)"

"Type: Props"

“Quality: Excellent”

"Effect: After using it, shout 'Everyone, look at me'. All enemies within five meters will conduct a Willpower test. If the Willpower test fails, the current action will be interrupted and they will stare at the player for one second. If there is only one enemy in the range, it will definitely take effect."

"Note: I have something to announce. I am an idiot!"

"It is indeed useful. I accepted it."

He nodded and put the photo in his pocket.

The "Complete List of Blackened Internet Companies" and the "Cluster Stun Grenade for Special Operations Teams" have been used up, and he is really in need of this kind of powerful control prop.

"Boss, it's good as long as you can use it, hehe."

Xia Kai breathed a sigh of relief.

A great favor can turn into a great hatred, and he felt much better because he could be of some help.

"In that case, I will immediately return to the church to report the intelligence to the Grand Master and send a team of hunters to assist you."

Andrina said.

"It's too late. Besides, even if I come, I may not be able to help. I'm more likely to cause trouble."

Liu Zheng said bluntly.

Albert almost made it clear that the Moon Demon was behind the blood therapy.

When the blood moon comes, all the hunters of the Blood Healing Church will turn into wild beasts, and even he may not be able to withstand it.

"how come?"

Andrina wanted to argue, but was stopped by Liu Zheng who raised his tentacles.

"Go ahead and report if you want to. We each have our own responsibilities. Now, get out of here quickly. I feel that guy is coming."

He said with a serious expression.

The feeling of being spied on made his whole body itchy, and his hair almost stood up.

"Let's go, let's not cause trouble for the boss."

Xia Kai took the lead and walked out of the academy.

The hunters from the gunpowder workshop looked at each other, saluted Liu Zheng, and followed Xia Kai.

Andrina had no choice but to follow the team.

"clang!"

Only the helmeted man knocked his head, indicating that he didn't want to leave.

"You are helping me if you take the Twisted Saint away quickly. Otherwise, the Moon Demon will possess him and we will all be in big trouble."

He said solemnly.

"Clang!"

The helmeted man knocked his head and turned away dejectedly.

"By the way, the Twisted Saint is pitiful enough, so don't rush him anymore."

Liu Zheng remembered and reminded.

"clang!"

The helmeted man knocked his head again, and his back looked even gloomier.

After he estimated that they had left the academy, he turned around and returned to the observatory.

"The Moon Demon can't wait any longer."

Albert said with his back to him.

"Since you are so eager to die, I will help you do so."

Liu Zheng sneered and drank the gender-changing potion.

After a burst of heat and itchiness, his body gradually changed.

The originally bulging pectoral muscles became more round and elastic, the growth below also shrank and became concave, and even the nails on the hooves turned pink.

"Wow, this gender change potion even comes with a manicure."

He was speechless.

"What a beautiful woman. Would you like to see what you look like now, young man?"

Albert asked.

"No thanks. I'm afraid of falling in love with myself."

Liu Zheng decisively refused.

"Here He comes, good luck to you, young man."

Albert raised his cane and tapped the ground. Then he was enveloped in white mist and disappeared.

"Old man, you run pretty fast."

He cursed and turned around.

A man in a wheelchair emerged from the mist.

He was wearing an old top hat, a dark red scarf around his neck, and a hunter suit.

The man looked very old, with white, dry hair sticking out from under the brim of his hat and his face covered with wrinkles. He looked even more decadent than Albert, with only his eyes still bright.

"Hello, young hunter."

The old hunter raised his chin and greeted him.

"Old man, who are you?"

Liu Zheng asked bluntly.

"They call me 'First Hunter', you can also call me 'German'."

The old hunter said.

"Oh, you are the guy that Lao Bei was talking about."

"Old Bay?"

Hermann looked puzzled.

“It’s Beethoven.”

"'Holy Sword' Beethoven, it seems like a long time ago since I last heard this name."

Hermann rolled his eyes, as if trying to recall everything related to this name.

"If you can't remember, forget it. I'm afraid your brain will freeze. Tell me, what are you doing here?"

Liu Zheng interrupted his recollections.

"Among the generally savage hunters, you are also the rudest one I have ever seen."

Hermann glanced at him and said.

"You've seen too little. Hurry up and get down to business, or I'll throw your wheelchair into the lake."

he urged.

"My master, you need me to unite with you and give birth to the Son of God."

Germann said.

"Huh? Old man, you really are old but young at heart. With someone like you, even if you take pounds of little blue pills, you still won't be able to stand up, right?"

Liu Zheng taunted.

"It seems I really need to teach you what hunter etiquette is."

Hermann slowly stood up from his wheelchair and took out a weapon from his cloak.

After a slight sound of the mechanism, the iron handle and the curved blade formed a huge sickle.

"Tonight, Germann will join the hunt."

he said softly.

The moonlight illuminated the blade of the sickle and also illuminated Hermann's eyes.

A surge of energy emanated from his body and rushed towards Liu Zheng.

The air was filled with a bloody and sticky smell, which was even more powerful than Beethoven.

This is the strength of the No. 1 Hunter, a god-killing existence standing at the top of countless hunters.

"Hunting your mother's head."

Liu Zheng flicked his tentacle, and a sticky note stuck to his tentacle appeared in front of German's eyes.

There was a line of crooked small words written on the sticky note.

"Since you're here, let's take a shit."

Hermann's eyes turned from sharp to confused, and then the hand holding the sickle loosened involuntarily and reached for his belt.

"No!"

The moment he unbuckled his belt, his eyes regained clarity.

Hermann did not try to catch the fallen sickle, but rolled on the ground without hesitation.

The serrated butcher knife chopped down from the air, splitting the hardwood wheelchair directly into two halves.

If Hermann had not escaped, he would have ended up like the wheelchair.

As expected of the number one hunter, he can make the right choice even when caught off guard.

Unfortunately, Liu Zheng still has a backup plan.

"All eyes are on me!"

He had a photo on his face, held up his tentacles, and shouted at German.

The first hunter stopped rolling and stared at him, as if wanting to see what else he could do.

The thin boning knife penetrated Hermann's temple and turned his brain into a pulp.

An expression of disbelief appeared on his face, and his bright eyes gradually turned dead silent.

"Why are you pretending to be so awesome?"

Liu Zheng pulled out the boning knife and said coldly.
