Godslayer: A random filename extension?

"Me! Me! Me! I also know a lot of information about Lord Yiyu, or rather, about Yiyu."

“I have been a believer longer and know more. I will tell you everything and try to get leniency. I was just doing bad things because I was controlled by delirium. I am innocent.”

"I'm willing to atone for my sins by doing good deeds. Please don't kill me. With my strength in the Sea Realm, I can definitely help you in dealing with the Church of the Ancient Gods."

"Or you could lock me up in a fasting place for life."

"Let me tell you, he actually..."

Just then, another believer from the Sea Realm began frantically spreading various messages.

Previously, due to the influence of the hypnotic murmur, he at least still appeared fearless and willing to sacrifice himself for Lord Hypnotic without hesitation.

Now, the fear of death made him beg for mercy, showing no trace of the demeanor of a powerful figure in the Sea Realm.

Chen Muye: …

Lin Linhou: ...

Han Shaoyun: ...

"Let's cut him with the knife first, but make sure the knife is a bit dull."

Chen Muye rubbed his temples. "If you had just kept quiet, you might have gotten away with it. But the fact that you opened your mouth only proves that this is who you really are."

"Yeah, it does look disgusting, so I'll cut it a little shorter."

Lin Linhou summoned the Blood Prison.

"Suppress Void, Enhance Perception!"

"Suppress weakness, continue recovery!"

"Suppress your mental activity, accelerate your thinking!"

"Suppress the void, share the spirit!"

"Forbidden Void..."

However, Lin Linhou did not rush to make a move. Instead, he first applied several buffs to the target.

This left the Haijing believer somewhat stunned and confused, even stopping his pleas for mercy.

Didn't you say you were going to kill yourself? Why are you giving yourself a positive immunity effect?

Could it be that he was just scaring himself, and his real purpose was to heal his wounds?

Lin Linhou: ヾ(′▽｀;)ゝ How could it possibly be healing you? Oh, it does have a healing effect and a weakness-suppressing effect.

but……

"Hehehe, savor it."

"Lingchi Knife Technique - Ultimate! Infinite Scraping!"

At the same time, Lin Linhou activated Blood Prison's Devouring ability to its minimum and then increased his own speed to its maximum.

Because of the boff boosts from before, the opponent can clearly feel the extreme pain of each cut, and even the entire process of how it cuts into their body.

And the feeling of one's own vitality, soul, flesh and blood being slowly devoured.

[Experience +1]

[Experience +1]

[Experience +1]

[Experience +1]

[Experience +1]

……

Each strike only consumes and feeds back a little experience, until the target is completely scraped to death.

Moreover, due to the repairs, the Lingchi technique, which originally could only be executed with 3,000 cuts, now has almost no upper limit. In fact, it can even be used in some places where Lingchi was originally impossible.

For example, the internal organs, such as the eyes and brain.

A desperate scream echoed through the confined space.

[Experience +1]

[Experience +1]

……

After more than five thousand cuts, the Sea Realm cultivator was on the verge of mental collapse, his eyes lifeless, and he no longer uttered any screams.

"It invigorates the mind and refreshes the spirit."

However, as Lin Linhou murmured another sentence, the other party's mental state immediately returned to full strength, and the expression in his eyes as he looked at the "demon" in front of him was extremely distorted.

Chen Muye, standing to the side: ('?')...

Damn it! I told you to hold your knife back a bit, meaning to slash him a few more times so he wouldn't die too easily.

But your knife strike is a bit too blunt.

Han Shaoyun, bound by chains on the other side: ...

⊙_⊙ I hope they don't try this on me too in a little while.

But after a moment of fear, he fell silent.

His thoughts drifted back to his lover, his teammates, and all those who had died at his hands over the years.

Perhaps, before I die, I should indeed experience the agony of being slowly sliced ​​to death, so that I can leave in peace.

While Lin Linhou was giving someone a gua sha treatment, Han Shaoyun continued to tell Chen Muye some information about the babbling and the Ancient God Church. Although it wasn't much, it was still useful.

More than half an hour later.

With a final scream, Lin Linhou's gua sha service came to an end.

The person in front of him also turned to ashes at the same time.

Lin Linhou glanced at the pop-up window; his experience points had almost increased again. Holy crap!

[Total Experience Points +]

Σ( ° △ °|||)︴

During the previous training camp, my experience increased by about 20,000.

I killed various enemies the day before yesterday and gained over 30,000 experience points.

Today's Sea Realm experience pack added over 30,000 experience points.

"Thirty thousand, thirty thousand plus twenty thousand... hiss..."

Does this mean he's just a few thousand experience points away from advancing to the Sea Realm?

ヾ(????)?~

Although it will take more than two months to digest all this experience, it means that after two months, he will be able to steadily set foot in the Sea Realm.

"So happy? What, is it because you've absorbed enough power and are about to advance?"

Lin Linhou nodded and said that this guy was incredibly nourishing. After he digested it, he would be able to steadily enter the Sea Realm in two months.

"Well, let's give him a quick death then. We've finished talking here."

Chen Muye pointed at Han Shaoyun.

Lin Linhou: (′???`)?

Han Shaoyun: ...

"Huh? Just give him a quick death, no need to save him?"

Lin Linhou thought Chen Muye was just joking before, since there was clearly a chance to save him, and the other party was really forced into it.

According to the usual trope of a villain being redeemed, shouldn't we provide them with psychological counseling to help them overcome their trauma and embrace the future?

Moreover, strictly speaking, this older brother doesn't even qualify as a villain who has been redeemed or reformed.

Does it mean, in the true literal sense, that someone is being saved from suffering?

“Brother, the future is long. The fault is not yours. I have a friend who used to wield a knife with black smoke billowing out, and he was ruthless and merciless, once slaughtering the entire surrounding area.”

“Nowadays, people meditate in temples for ten years, and after a moment of enlightenment, they wholeheartedly embrace goodness and the future.”

“Killing wasn’t your intention. In fact, my friend’s actions were partly due to his own actions, even though he was under the control of the villains. You, on the other hand, were completely controlled by the villains and couldn’t resist.”

"So life is beautiful, and atonement doesn't necessarily have to involve death. Living is always better than... only then can..."

Lin Linhou felt that, according to the usual approach, it would be more appropriate to use verbal persuasion in this situation.

How could it be "give him a quick and painless cut"?

……

At this very moment, Cao Yuan is inside a hotel.

"Ah owe! Ah owe! Ah owe!"

The others: ?_? Dude, what's wrong with you?

Got a cold?

Cao Yuan: ?_? I don't know, I just feel like someone's talking about me?

……

After listening, Han Shaoyun smiled and nodded, then shook his head. He naturally understood all the principles of the world.

However, even setting aside the factor that one should not advise others to do good if one has not experienced their suffering.

Everyone has their own choices, don't they?

“I have my own choices, but there is only one request.”

"I have a pill in my inner pocket. If you ever have the chance to see my wife, please advise her to take it. If you don't see her... then I will consider today my journey to find her."

When Lin Linhou and Chen Muyi asked again, Han Shaoyun refused to say another word.

Back then, his wife was arrested, and her fate is now unknown. Even if she were still alive after his death, she would probably be in grave danger.

Han Shaoyun was well aware of the dangers of the Church of the Ancient Gods. Even though its overall strength was inferior to that of the Night Watchers, it was definitely not a place that could be invaded and rescued at will.

We and our wife are both aware that we cannot allow more people to risk their lives and sacrifice themselves for this.

Furthermore, he must also pay for his sins.
