I slay demons and monsters in a bizarre city.

Chapter 15 Fire Pillar God

Xia Mengmeng had done her best, using the Flame Form of the Cross Mantra, which resulted in a great backlash from the flames. Even so, she barely managed to catch the rusty iron chain of the Nightmare.

It was really scary; it was the first time Xia Mengmeng had ever seen someone with a cat's face.

This cat is really strange; it looks particularly awkward.

Li Changgeng confirmed that these cat-headed people were the same type he had seen in the hospital's intensive care unit.

The cat-headed man was only wearing black trousers, his upper body was bare, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and his mustache twitched on both sides of his mouth.

More and more cat-headed people appeared, and more than a dozen of them stood in perfect unison, their movements extremely precise, forming a high human wall that blocked Li Changgeng and Xia Mengmeng behind them.

Did you bring this?

"Are these cats or people?"

"They seem to be under a spell, being controlled!"

Xia Mengmeng was already at her limit. Although she was one of the Ten Heavenly Stems and Ten Pillars of Fire, her cultivation was still shallow and her control over the laws of fire was very average. The Fetal Nightmare was also ranked high among the Thirteen Coffins of Evil Spirits, making her a formidable figure among the Evil Moon Gods.

The Thirteen Coffins of Evil Spirits had been cultivating for many years, and with the absorption of the Moon's Essence after the Eternal Night, their strength had greatly increased. The Eternal Night and the coming winter were the paradise of the evil gods.

Xia Mengmeng's fusion of souls with the white giant snake was not very smooth, which is one of the reasons why Xia Mengmeng's cultivation level is not strong.

For some time now, the Night Slayer Division has been actively searching for a special person with supernatural abilities who "awakened" in the Eternal Night. They have only found Xia Mengmeng. As the Night Slayer Division's Dark Night Inspector, Lin Jiuge's most important task, besides protecting the night, acting as the guardian of the night, and dealing with some evil spirits and gods, is to find the Ten Pillar Gods.

Only with the Ten Pillar Gods and all the gods in their proper places can we fight against the many evil gods.

At KMS Company, Lin Jiuge discovered the divine mark on Li Changgeng's body, the Death God's Phantom. Although she could conclude that Li Changgeng was a superhuman, this Death God's mark directly refuted everything about Li Changgeng being one of the Ten Pillar Gods.

Lin Jiuge was also worried that Li Changgeng might be the embodiment of evil.

“I saw these cat-headed people at the hospital. They were locked in a special care ward, and a group of people wearing isolation suits and gas masks seemed to be experimenting on them!” Li Changgeng saw the cat-headed people’s arms-thick tails with fine hairs like steel needles. Could these perfectly normal people have been turned into cats by those perverted doctors?

"You go, I must protect the Buddhist hall and prevent the fetal nightmare from obtaining the relic." Since merging her soul with the white giant snake, Xia Mengmeng has never left the Buddhist hall. Even if she dies, she will die here.

"Let's go together!" How could Li Changgeng watch Xia Mengmeng go to her death? She was badly injured and could barely stand. If she didn't leave, it would be a pointless and meaningless sacrifice.

"Go away!" Xia Mengmeng stubbornly pouted, pushed Li Changgeng away, twisted her toes, and leaped into the air.

"Nightmare of the womb, today I will take you down with me."

"You little bitch!" the Nightmare sneered. "Your strength is too weak, not enough to even look at you. You're not qualified to take me down with you."

Li Changgeng only hated himself for being so useless!
He doesn't have the same ability to control flames as Xia Mengmeng, nor does he have any other abilities. Perhaps his only strength is writing game code.

Wait a minute, right at that moment...

Li Changgeng recalled the ghost train at sea. When he woke up, he seemed to have received a purple Death God card with the number 15 on it.

That Death card will definitely be useful.

After patting his pockets, Li Changgeng realized that he hadn't brought the Death God card.

I need to go back and study it carefully to see what that thing is actually used for.

"What a big cat!"

The big-eared puppet baby's tiny body trembled like a leaf. "Mommy, I'm scared!"

"Don't be afraid, baby! Let your brother kill them."

The nightmare's body began to writhe wildly, its spine cracking and popping, gradually splitting open with a large gash, releasing a bloody, malevolent aura.

The silent cat-headed people suddenly moved.

Sharp claws gleamed coldly as they tore at the three puppet infants!
"Mommy! Help!" The three puppet babies cried out almost in unison, squatting on the ground with their hands covering their heads, their trembling little bodies unable to move, just like mice seeing a cat.

The voice was filled with grief, sorrow, and ethereal beauty, like a wronged soul crawling out of a graveyard.

Hiss...sobbing, sobbing!

A group of cat-headed people surrounded the three puppet babies and began to devour them!

Li Changgeng felt nauseous and almost vomited.

The cat-headed man ate the puppet baby like a cat eating a mouse.

The world after the eternal night is indeed too bizarre and terrifying.

A cat-headed human turned its head, its face covered in dark red, foul-smelling blood, and put one of the puppet baby's little legs directly into its mouth, crunching and chewing.

Fortunately, the cat-headed man wasn't targeting him. All Li Changgeng wanted to do at that moment was go home, close the windows, lock the door, and stay quietly through the night.

The flames burning on Xia Mengmeng's arms flickered incessantly as she circled behind the Nightmare. Her flaming hand blade slashed towards the Nightmare's neck. She knew that at this moment, the Nightmare was splitting into clones, making it the best opportunity to launch a fatal sneak attack.

"Successful."

A smile appeared on Xia Mengmeng's pained face, but her eyes immediately became wary.

Bang!
Xia Mengmeng was sent flying backward, spitting out a jet of blood in the air. Her sternum was broken, and the intense pain almost made her faint.

Li Changgeng stretched out his upper arm and caught Xia Mengmeng as she fell.

The force of the fall was so great that Li Changgeng dislocated one of his arms and rolled on the ground more than a dozen times with Xia Mengmeng in his arms before stopping.

Li Changgeng felt as if all the bones in his body were broken, and he was in excruciating pain.

It's really too difficult to be a hero and save a damsel in distress. If you save her, you're a hero; if you fail, you're not even worthy of being called a coward, you only deserve to die.

The Nightmare touched the little dwarf that had split off from the womb, "Kill, kill those cat-headed people, avenge your brothers!"

Ow...

The little dwarf let out a scream and disappeared underground.

As it broke through the ground, dust flew up and a murderous aura soared into the sky. The dwarf's scimitar unleashed countless sinister blade lights.

The cat-headed man's flesh and blood bodies, facing the blade, collapsed into piles of corpses of varying sizes.

Li Changgeng couldn't even stand up; after struggling for a moment, he was able to sit up with difficulty.

This time we're doomed!

Even a god couldn't save them.

Why is he so unlucky, always encountering such life-or-death situations? Who will come to his rescue now?

The hideously ugly giantess with a nightmare, and that little dwarf wielding a scimitar—they're both incredibly powerful.

Li Changgeng was merely a mortal.

It now seems that we can only resort to a strategy of wits, not physical confrontation.

"Don't do anything yet. If I die, you'll never get what you want."

The Nightmare slowly bent down, squatted down, and smiled wickedly, "Child, this young man is just a freebie. The Buddha's relic is on this girl. If I dig out her heart, I can naturally obtain it."

"I want to rip out this young man's heart and eat it raw."
