It's not too much to say that a beauty is a little bit stronger

The boy's body lay in a pool of blood, with a strange and bright smile on his lips.

The priest stood aside, his eyes coldly sweeping over the boy's body. He threw the dagger to the ground with a crisp sound.

He wiped his hands and looked at the onlookers without any fluctuation in his expression.

"Dead." The priest paused for a moment. "Dead is better than dead. Without the protection of God, he is nothing."

He added indifferently, "Take it out and burn it."

Just as he finished speaking, suddenly, a blinding flash of fire shot up into the sky, and the raging flames spread rapidly, engulfing the entire church.

The heat wave from the flames hit them in the face, the air was almost deformed by the burning, and the intense temperature made everyone's heart beat wildly.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Two dull sounds followed immediately, and all the doors and windows were controlled by some force and locked without warning.

The iron door slammed hard against the frame, making a series of harsh sounds.

"what happened?!"

"Why won't the door open?"

Panicked shouts were heard from the crowd, and more and more eyes were frantically scanning the surroundings, looking for a chance to escape.

But no matter how they struggled, the sealed doors and windows were like iron walls, trapping them in this burning nightmare.

At this moment, a slight laugh was heard.

Everyone turned their heads suddenly and looked towards the source of the sound in horror.

Everyone was stunned——

The boy's body was clearly lying on the ground, covered in blood and without any breath.

However, at this moment, the already cold corpse actually opened its eyes, and its amber pupils flashed with a hint of teasing.

He slowly sat up and stared at the people who were fleeing in all directions.

"impossible……!"

"He...how come he is still alive?"

"Isn't he already dead?"

People's hearts suddenly tightened, and the shadow of fear quickly enveloped everyone's heart.

Could it be that the boy had not lost his divine power at all?

Could it be that all this was a scam he had carefully crafted?

Was everything from the beginning to the end just a carefully planned and self-directed game by the young man?

The young man showed a contemptuous smile.

"How boring." His voice echoed in the sea of ​​fire. "You are ridiculous. You actually think that you can exchange eternal blessings for a few wishes. Haha, how naive."

As the young man finished speaking, the flames became more violent, almost engulfing the entire church.

There was a tearing sound from the charred beams, and the fire raged around everyone.

Those who had begged him before no longer had any pleading expressions on their faces. Their eyes were filled with anger that almost tore the boy apart.

However, the boy seemed to enjoy it all; his smile became more cunning and wanton, as if all the pain was just entertainment prepared for him.

"Wishes..." The young man raised his chin slightly, looking down at the ignited crowd. "Behind every wish, there is a price. Do you still believe there is such a thing as a free lunch?"

His words struck everyone's heart heavily, like a sharp knife piercing their soul.

Those figures who once knelt down are now covered in blood and ashes. They were once believers of the gods, but now they have become sacrifices.

The flames were spreading wildly, and the entire church had become a blazing inferno.

Seeing those people turned into corpses, he felt no pity in his heart, only a mischievous pleasure.

"Didn't you promise me before that you would forgive me no matter what I did?"

This is a fucked up world.

So even if it is destroyed, it doesn’t matter.

When the boy came out of the church, his appearance changed again.

Become more mature and more familiar.

That was Loki's current appearance.

-

The story ended here. Loki looked at Xiao Huai with a smile: "I didn't expect you to be so interested in me. I'm a little touched. So, what do you think after seeing my past?"

Xiao Huai raised his eyes slightly, "They did something wrong."

The moment he finished speaking, Loki's eyelashes trembled slightly.

They did it wrong.

Those people killed their gods.

Loki said coldly: "All prayers are lies, all wishes are transactions."

"She wasn't lying." Xiao Huai said.

"Who?"

As Xiao Huai stretched out his hand, the appearance of his mother reappeared.

"Live, my child."

In fact, her child had already died at the altar. Loki could be anyone and he could be born from any life.

But the mother still wanted Loki to survive.

Loki was silent. He stared at the illusion created by Xiao Huai, as if he saw the long-cold corpse again.

"I don't think this is all you have," Xiao Huai said lightly, "but it's enough now. After all, the time is almost up."

As soon as he finished speaking, the scene around him began to change dramatically. The world before him collapsed bit by bit and gradually dissipated.

After a moment, everything around returned to its original place and returned to the original world.

At the same time, a prompt popped up on Xiao Huai's system interface.

[Congratulations on completing the highest level escape mission.]

It turned out that Xiao Huai just cleverly sent Loki away and used this time to enter this world and delay the process.

Loki raised his eyebrows slightly. "Is your purpose so simple? You're not even willing to waste a wish?"

“It’s not a waste.”

Xiao Huai raised his head and looked into the distance.

His companions were standing there. They had not left yet and were safe because of Xiao Huai.

Loki followed his gaze and asked, "Are you eager to go to the eighteenth floor?"

Now Xiao Huai has reached the seventeenth floor.

Whether Xiao Huai can pass the seventeenth level depends entirely on Loki's decision.

Xiao Huai nodded without any hesitation: "I have a reason to go."

Loki sneered, "What if I told you that the eighteenth level dungeon is a dead end?"

Xiao Huai looked back at Loki: "I'm not afraid."

Not afraid.

He is not afraid.

Because he must see Lu Yuanshi.

When I met Lu Yuan, who had been forgotten by the whole world.

"Haha...you really are the most interesting human being I have ever met." Loki touched his chin, then moved closer to Xiao Huai, as if he had thought of an interesting question:

"If you had seen me as a teenager, would you have made a wish?"

"meeting."

Loki didn't expect Xiao Huai to answer in just one second. His eyes turned a little cold:

"Oh? Then what wish will you make?"

Xiao Huai raised the corners of his mouth slightly, the breeze blew through his black hair, and the afterglow of the setting sun rippled in his deep red eyes, like colorful waves of light on the sea.

At that moment, every wave in the air became the background. He spoke in a clear voice:

"I will promise—let yourself go."

Xiao Huai would not make a wish for himself, just like Aladdin's magic lamp.

Everyone longs to obtain a wish from the magic lamp, however, no one knows that the god has long been trapped inside, and countless reincarnations have passed through the years.

When Loki heard Xiao Huai say that sentence, his pupils contracted.

Finally he laughed out loud, and the voice of the system continued to come to Xiao Huai's ears.
