I went berserk in the game of gods.

Chapter 81 Monster City
Of course, the mature woman wasn't the only one who noticed the anomaly on the ground.

The rising heat swept in from the ground, and the surrounding air began to scald, making it feel like your lungs were being burned when you inhaled it.

This is... a crisis completely opposite to any of the previous ones!
Upon seeing this, Yang Chan immediately gave Cao Yu a buff.

With his spirit enhanced, Cao Yu looked around through his spiritual vision and saw huge, almost humanoid flames gradually approaching them from both ends of the alley between the buildings.

As they got closer, the sounds emitted by these fire monsters rang directly in their minds and ears simultaneously.

It's like a dual voice, both physical and spiritual.

“…I’ll kill you…I’ll kill you…”

As the air temperature rises, many players are already experiencing slight burns on their skin.

Greyhound asked Cao Yu, "Captain, what kind of monster is it this time?"

“Humanoid flame,” Cao Yu said. “Follow me.”

After saying that, he rushed towards the monster on the south side of the alley.

Now both sides of the alley are blocked, and the temperature is rising steadily.

Fortunately, escaping is not difficult for players—the alley is lined with tall buildings on both sides, and with the players' skills, they can easily climb the walls and escape.

Cao Yu could even fly out.

However, he did not choose to run away directly.

He wanted to verify some things.

He gripped the eight-sided sword, activated "Spirit Control of Ten Thousand Movements" to accelerate, and shot out like a cannonball. At extremely high speed, he made several sudden turns, leaving afterimages in the eyes of the players.

In the unseen realm of the players, Cao Yuqi unleashed the "Immortal Slaying Curse" and the "Eternal Wound Curse," continuously cleaving the fire monsters into pieces and carving out a path for his escape.

As he attacked, he pointed and shouted:

"You guys retreat in this direction first and look for clues about the Seventh Evolution Academy."

Yang Chan and Xi Gou obeyed the order immediately.

Yang Chan wasn't too worried about Cao Yu's safety—she had always had a blind trust in her sixth brother.

The other players didn't linger either and left the area temporarily.

After killing a large number of fire monsters, Cao Yu luxuriously activated the "Immortal Slaying Spell" and stood still, waiting.

Yang Chan's boost to him will continue for some time.

Although it wasn't long, it was enough to deal with the monsters in front of us.

More and more fiery monsters surged toward him and touched his body.

The monsters that had just been killed respawned and rejoined the attack team.

Each monster unleashed a terrifying, scorching attack upon touching Cao Yu, distorting the surrounding atmosphere and unleashing waves of heat.

However, they were all cleaved apart by the "Immortal-Slaying Curse".

"Kill you... Kill you..."

A series of sounds rang in Cao Yu's ears.

Cao Yu ignored it and, while waiting, pondered the meaning of the shout in his mind.

The giant baby monster from before called out "Dad" and "Mom," yearning for a warm embrace.

The fire monster now shouts "I'll kill you!" and both its voice and actions are filled with intense anger and murderous intent.

Two completely opposite emotions... what message is hidden within them?
The background story mentions that a horrific and bizarre incident involving casualties occurred at the Seventh Evolution Academy…

'The player encountered an invisible spirit monster as soon as they entered... This must be a supernatural dungeon.'

'Are these monsters roaming the city connected to the Seventh Evolution Academy?'

Cao Yu was thinking rapidly.

He couldn't conclude whether there was a connection yet, as there was too little information.

The crises in a dungeon don't always have corresponding explanations or origins. Sometimes they are simply crises, just obstacles set up for players.

As he pondered, all the fire monsters around him had moved closer to him.

The time has come!

Cao Yun could sense that the buffs Yang Chan had given him were gradually disappearing.

He didn't wait any longer and immediately summoned Xiao Qi, giving the order to "cut open all the air in the surrounding area".

As a spiritual being, Xiaoqi possesses the ability of "spiritual vision".

However, she is an independent life form and has not been individually buffed by Yang Chan, so... she cannot see the fire monster at the moment.

Her evolution level is still a bit lacking.

Of course, this did not stop her from killing enemies.

Anyway, as long as I run into it, that's fine.

At the same time, Cao Yu activated "Spiritual Control of Ten Thousand Movements" at full power, darting out like a bolt of lightning. The "Qi" within his body circulated along a specific path, unleashing the "Floating Light and Shadow Sword," instantly increasing his attack speed several times over. The eight-sided sword in his hand slashed out streaks of sword light and afterimages.

At this moment, he was slashing with nearly a hundred swords per second!

As fast as lightning.

Its momentum was like a raging storm.

In addition, two major killing curses were unleashed simultaneously.

Xiao Qi is cooperating again... Cao Yu seems to have transformed into a perfect killing machine.

He violently tore the air and the earth apart.

He cleared out all the fire monsters in one go before the "monster respawn mechanism" took effect.

The rising temperature in the surrounding area stopped as a result.

He wanted to verify one thing—whether killing all monsters of the same type in a very short time could completely eliminate them and prevent them from respawning repeatedly.
If the verification is successful, then he won't have to be timid or hesitant in his actions within this instance.

With Yang Chan's healing skills, he can fight his way through!
If the verification fails... Soon, Cao Yu discovered that the fire monsters had respawned one by one, returning to their original numbers, and were rushing towards him again.

At that moment, the buff that Yang Chan had given him completely disappeared.

He could no longer see the monster.

However, the "Immortal Slaying Curse" is still in effect, so there's no need to worry about getting hurt for the time being.

Cao Yu assessed his condition—his mental exertion wasn't particularly high, given that he had just been in a buffed state. However, his internal "Qi" was depleted, and it would take some time to recover.

"Kill you... Kill you..."

A series of angry growls came from the monster.

Without saying a word, Cao Yu ran away.

If he stayed any longer, he would be exhausted and die.

He charged wildly in the "Immortal Slaying Spell," maneuvering the device to fly in a straight line at low altitude, quickly breaking through in the direction Yang Chan and the others had left.

……

at the same time.

Yang Chan and the others, who had escaped the fire monster, did not come down safely.

Without Cao Yu to keep things under control, they were actually in greater danger.

Because... they encountered a third type of monster.

The older woman in the group used her superpowers to see the monster's form and described it to the others—it was a huge, blood-red humanoid monster that seemed to be stitched together from scattered pieces of flesh and had various gaps in its body.

"It hurts...it hurts so much..."

These monsters, in large groups, approached Yang Chan and the others, emitting mournful cries.

Before they even got close, some unknown force invaded them, and all the players felt abnormal pain in their bodies, had difficulty breathing, and could not concentrate.

"Get out of the way!" The mature woman looked at the greyhound.

The greyhound dodged immediately, but was still touched by a blood-red monster... *splat*—a gash appeared on the side of his abdomen, and blood gushed out instantly.

The blood-red monster that touched him suddenly lost the gaping hole in its abdomen.

The mature woman witnessed this scene.

As she backed away, she reminded everyone:

“These monsters are covered in gaps, and once you touch them, the gaps will transfer to us.”

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed.

The previous two types of monsters, although they dealt elemental damage, at least didn't kill you instantly upon contact.

But the current crimson monster... if you touch it and a gap is transferred to its head... it's too dangerous!
Without the older woman reminding them to run, everyone followed her immediately and began a rapid evacuation.

Yang Chan summoned the calico cat, intending to treat Xigou, but Xigou stopped her with a paw.

The greyhound said:

"I can heal this wound myself. Who knows how many unseen monsters are lurking in this city? Let's save our mental energy."

After saying that, he activated his superpower, "Four Directions Boundary".

A large amount of fat surged out from the unknown space and filled the gap in his abdomen, healing his injuries.

He is least afraid of these kinds of flesh-and-blood injuries.

suddenly!

Yang Chan and Xi Gou noticed that the mature woman, who was running forward, suddenly stopped and turned back.

"What's wrong?" Yang Chan asked.

“There’s a new monster ahead,” the older woman replied. “A giant rat whose body is almost completely transparent; you can only see a faint phantom image. The sound it makes is…”

"You can't see me...you can't see me..."

Before the older woman could finish speaking, the mice started chattering and chirping.

As these rat-like monsters crawled, a layer of the road surface mysteriously disappeared, as if it had been gnawed away by something... No, the older sister looked closely and saw that the disappearing road surface gradually became transparent, its color fading little by little, until it finally vanished completely.

Considering the almost transparent appearance of these rat monsters... she immediately made a judgment and reminded everyone:
"Be careful. These rats are even more dangerous. If you touch them, you will be assimilated and disappear."

"……Grass!"

The greyhound couldn't help but curse.

When will this ever end?!

"Run this way."

The older sister immediately pointed out a new evacuation route and led the way in running in that direction.

After running for a short while, the mature woman stopped again.

"...Is there something else ahead?" someone asked.

The mature woman hasn't answered yet.

A series of urgent shouts then rang out:
"Help me... help me..."

“They’re bugs,” the older woman reminded everyone. “You’ve seen maggots before, right? Imagine a maggot magnified to the size of an elephant. They look… kind of cute.”

"You're still in the mood for jokes at a time like this?!" Greyhound said. "Stop joking around, which way are we running now?"

"Over there," the mature woman pointed in a direction.

Everyone began to evacuate at full speed.

However, they soon discovered that their running speed... had become very slow!
Hearing the cries for help from the swarm of giant maggots behind them, a strong urge to rescue them surged within them. A fierce internal struggle ensued, with them wanting to run and wanting to help at the same time. For a moment, they couldn't fully control their bodies, causing every movement to become slow.

At the same time, blood-red humanoid monsters and rat monsters from the other two directions also surged towards this side.

Different kinds of shouts reached the ears of every player.

Everyone realized that simply running away wouldn't work anymore; they had to fight their way out!
