Godslayer: My Girlfriend Red Tassel

"Because of my entry, you became the ceiling of humanity?"

Could it be that he wasn't originally the ceiling...? A storm raged in Wang Mian's heart.

In the first seven days, it was just ordinary villagers attacking "Masked," and the situation was still under control.

But yesterday, this mountain of flesh suddenly appeared. With strength at the pinnacle of human power, he severely damaged [Masked] in just half a day, almost wiping them out. And now he's saying that he only became "the pinnacle of human power" after I entered the village?

But this seven-day cycle should be like a perfectly replicated game save file, eternally unchanging!

How could things have changed just because I came in?

For the first time, Wang Mian felt that everything was completely out of his control.

"呲~~"

Just then, the man took a deep breath facing the king, tilted his head back, opened his arms to the red moon in the night sky, and revealed a crazed expression.

"So that's how it is. You are the prey that 'them' sent to me. As long as I can kill you here, I can possess this power forever. I love this gift... I love it so much!"

"Who are they, Moon?" Wang Mian asked instinctively, following the monster's gaze.

"You can't see them, and they won't let you see them." Accompanied by a series of nauseating sounds of lumps bursting open, the man roared hysterically, "All living beings will eventually kneel in worship! And I... I will gain eternal life, I will attain eternal life! Hahahaha."

The next moment, from the depths of that writhing mountain of flesh, two dark green tentacles covered with slimy suckers suddenly shot out, piercing through space and stabbing straight at the king's face.

"Swish."

The long sword in Wang Mian's hand flashed with a cold light, and two sword beams, each more than ten meters long, shot out into the air.

A silver ray swept across, aiming directly at the attacking tentacles, while another, extremely cunning, precisely followed the gaps in the writhing mountain of flesh, piercing straight at the twisted humanoid head.

The monster remained calm. When it saw the blade approaching, it puffed out its cheeks and vomited out a thick, yellow liquid. As soon as the liquid touched the blade's energy, it made a hissing sound and instantly dissolved the energy.

"Are you human or a mystery?!"

Wang Mian leaped high into the air, dodging the tentacles, and charged at the monster with his sword.

"I am their servant!"

The monster roared proudly, letting the King Face dodge and weave. Its two tentacles danced wildly, and the soft tentacles eventually twisted at an unbelievable angle, striking the King Face with a thunderous crash.

"boom!"

Wang Mian was slammed into the room like a sandbag, blood mixed with fragments of internal organs gushing from his mouth.

Unable to withstand its attack, the beast's offensive became increasingly skillful... The king struggled to his feet, his eyes filled with despair.

This monster's evolution speed far exceeds expectations. Yesterday's tentacled attacks were still clumsy, but now they can easily tear through space, and it can already unleash more than half of the "ceiling" power.

Unfortunately, his own divine ruins were sealed, and his strength was reduced to less than one-tenth.

With one side gaining and the other losing... [Masked] is probably really going to meet his end here today.

"Death, merge into my body!"

The mountain of flesh rolled in, its tentacles piercing through the wooden house walls with a "boom," heading straight for the king's chest.

Wang Mian tried to dodge despite the excruciating pain, but the broken ribs pierced deep into his lungs, causing him to spasm and become unable to move.

Just then, a pink lightning bolt suddenly tore through the darkness, and Rose burst forth from the ruins. The seemingly small pink hammer in her hand swelled with the wind, instantly transforming into a towering pillar, as majestic as a mountain, standing between the monster and the king.

Rose gripped the hammer handle tightly, turned her back to the king, and roared.

"Captain, run! I'll hold it off!!"

Wang covered his wound and stared blankly at the rose.

This mischievous and troublesome little girl, whom he once sheltered under his wing, now holds that pink hammer like an insurmountable wall, standing between him and danger.

Her slender figure appeared exceptionally small against the backdrop of the massive hammer, which was hundreds of stories high, like a rose that refused to bend.

"boom!"

The next second, the dark green tentacles pierced through the giant hammer, then through Rose's chest, pinning her to the ground.

The pink giant hammer exploded into a sky full of pink dust, turning the world into a desolate pink landscape. Rose struggled to turn her neck, tears mingling with blood as she slid down her cheeks. Her fading gaze fell upon the king, and she managed to squeeze out a few words, albeit haltingly:

"Captain... let's go..."

Wang Mian's pupils suddenly contracted, and he struggled to lunge forward to grab the rose.

"Shh-"

The tentacles pulled the rose away, taking her further and further away from the King's face. Her figure rapidly shrank in the King's sight, soaring high like a kite torn apart by a gale, before finally plunging with a "thud" into the all-consuming, pitch-black sea and disappearing from sight.

"Hehehehehe, wonderful, so wonderful."

"No, no!" Wang Mian cried out in despair, staggering towards that direction.

The broken roof beam crashed down with a deafening roar, and his swirling, scattered gaze refocused. He darted forward, unhesitatingly hoisted Wang Mian onto his back, and raced towards the back of the house amidst the flying rubble.

“Vortex, put me down... No, what are you doing? You are overdrawing your life.”

Wang Mian struggled desperately, but was tightly bound to the back of a spinning purple vortex, unable to move.

This is the forbidden ruins of the vortex.

The shield that should have been absorbing energy was now completely reversed by him, transforming into a conduit for life. He gritted his teeth and ran frantically, simultaneously pouring his boiling spiritual power and scalding life force into Wang Mian's body through the forbidden area.

"Stop! Stop right now!"

"Please don't do this, please... please don't do this."

Gradually, with each step the vortex took, its pupils became more dilated, and its running figure gradually became hunched.

He was panting heavily, muttering to himself like a chatterbox.

"Captain, don't worry about us, you should run! You still have a chance to escape."

"Captain, I think I can't hold on much longer. You'll have to run on your own soon... Keep running forward and don't look back."

"As long as you can outrun the river of time..."

"Captain, run..."

After an unknown amount of time, the vortex finally poured all its life force into Wangmian, and he ran slower and slower...

"Pfft."

The restraints dissipated, and Wang Mian fell heavily off the vortex's back. He staggered to his feet and lunged at the vortex, but the moment he saw it clearly, he froze on the spot, as if struck by lightning, his breath catching in his throat.

Whirlpool's eyes were open, his body hunched over, yet he remained in a running posture... but he was dead.

"swirl......"

"Ah, ah, ah—!!"

Wang Mian roared in despair, and blood gushed from his throat, turning into a cloud of blood mist.

(P.S.: Sorry everyone, I'm really not good at writing this kind of angst. I spent an entire afternoon reading Yu Hua's works before I managed to come up with this chapter. I hope you can enjoy reading it.)

(Don't rush to send razor blades yet, the masked man can survive, I'm telling you!)
