"Kill him!"
After Mr. Plague finished yelling, before his voice had even faded, Xia Qi jumped out from the gap in the stone door.
Fortunately, Xia Qi carefully recorded the route to Building 17 when he went downstairs. He didn't even take out his lighter. He relied on his memory to move around in the temple.
He had just run a distance when the stone door of Temple No. 14 was pushed open by the believers, who shouted, "Catch him!"
Hearing the chaotic footsteps from behind, Xia Qi knew that all the remaining players had chased out, so he quickly slowed down and hid behind a pillar.
Because Temple No. 17 was too dark and Xia Qi did not raise the lighter, after everyone rushed out, they chased each other nearby for a while and then lost their way.
"The Son of Evil is hiding. How can we catch him?" The tamer spoke first.
"It's too dark in here. Can someone hold up a brighter torch?" someone else complained.
The beast trainer snorted coldly, "If my summoned black dog wasn't on cooldown, I would definitely catch him!"
Just as everyone was chattering about how to catch Xia Qi, Mr. Plague suddenly said, "Crossbowman, try using an arrow."
"Mr. Plague, you are really smart." The crossbowman praised shamelessly, "This is a good idea, maybe we can force him out."
After saying this, Xia Qi heard several sounds of wind coming from nearby.
"call out-"
"call out-"
"call out-"
The crossbowman shot randomly as if he had no eyes, and almost hit him several times.
The crossbowman kept adjusting his position. A volley of arrows happened to fly towards Xia Qi. He was about to dodge sideways when suddenly, Xia Qi felt a soft thing appear in front of him. The soft cushion-like thing suddenly hit him and pushed him behind the wall.
With a "pop" sound, the arrow shot into the cushion in front of him, and the cushion made a sound similar to that of jelly being poked.
Then, the cushion stood silently in front of Xia Qi, acting as his tank and meat shield.
"Swish, swish, swish—" After the crossbowmen fired randomly at the direction where Xia Qi was hiding, they finally turned around and swept another direction.
After the group of people left, Xia Qi raised his hand, touched the cushion in front of him, and found that he was actually a person!
Since the cushion was soft and not yet warm, Xia Qi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the cushion was not an evil god.
After he pinched the cushion for a while, it suddenly twisted. Xia Qi pinched the cushion's arm and found that the arm was thin and small, like a child's.
He frowned. How could it be a child
Since the believers were still nearby, Xia Qi did not ask.
He waited there for a while, and when the believers walked further away, he slowly climbed towards the stairs of Temple No. 17.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he moved for a while, the cushion also crawled with him. Because the cushion was extremely quiet, if Xia Qi had not been too close to him, he would hardly hear any sound made by the cushion.
Xia Qi climbed for about 30 minutes and finally arrived at the staircase entrance of Temple No. 17. This staircase led to Temple No. 8 on the first floor. He planned to follow the original two-way staircase back to the first floor.
Looking at the faint golden light flowing on the stairs, Xia Qi slowly stood up from the ground.
If he took this staircase, he would inevitably reveal his position.
Xia Qixian stretched out his hand and grabbed the cushion beside him, then he took a deep breath, and after his legs were fully strengthened, he quickly rushed to the stairs!
"Look! The Holy Son has gone upstairs!"
Sure enough, as soon as Xia Qi rushed to the stairs, the believers had already discovered him.
“Swish, swish, swish—”
A familiar sound of breaking wind came from behind him. Xia Qi relied on his body's instincts to constantly dodge and climb the stairs.
After a few seconds of life-and-death speed, Xia Qi finally returned to the first floor. Unfortunately, after he went upstairs, the believers below seemed to catch up with him.
Xia Qi looked at the gate of Temple No. 5 in front of him and rushed in without even thinking.
Unfortunately, after entering Temple No. 5, the evil god had disappeared.
Xia Qi stood beside the overturned spiritual spring and took a moment to catch his breath.
At the moment, his back was against Temple No. 8 where the pursuers were about to arrive. To the west of his left was Temple No. 4 along the way they came, and to the east of his right was Temple No. 6 on the leprosy route.
He must return to Temple No. 4!
Xia Qi quickly figured out the route and rushed directly into Temple No. 4.
After passing through Temple No. 4, he returned to the original Temple No. 1. Since Temple No. 1 was exceptionally large, when he ran to the center of the temple, he heard the voices of believers shouting and killing again.
These people run so fast!
Xia Qi seriously suspected that they were buffed by the new God of Light. As a target in the dark, he should have been extremely difficult to locate, but this group of people were chasing him faster than he could run.
After returning to Temple No. 1, Xia Qi rushed directly to the stone gate of Temple No. 2.
As soon as he pushed the door open, he almost collided with the bronze statue.
"Saint!" Xia Qi hurriedly took a step back. What he never expected was that the saint who liked to pretend that she was a bronze statue actually ran to the door. If he had not braked in time, he would have been knocked over by the saint monster.
Seeing Xia Qi appear at the door, the Holy Monster let out an irritated growl, looked down at him, her face full of disgust.
Xia Qi knew that he was not favored by the Saint, so he asked politely, "Excuse me, do you know where the evil god who just appeared went?"
Hearing this, the Saint Monster grinned at him with her rotten teeth and looked at him teasingly.
The Son of God actually doesn’t know where the evil god has gone
Just as Xia Qi and the Saint Monster stood at the gate of Temple No. 2 staring at each other, the believers had already caught up with them. The trainer shouted, "He's there, kill him!"
The familiar sound of breaking wind was heard again. Xia Qi quickly went into the temple and asked the Saint Monster in front of him: "I am the Son of God, you are the Saint, we belong to the same camp, would you consider cooperating with me?"
The holy book in his hand seemed to be usable only by one player. With so many players trying to catch him and kill him, he had to rely on his teammates to help share the burden.
Although his teammates do not seem to be "human", it is better than having no "human" at all.
Upon hearing this, the Saint's strange smile froze on her face. She never expected that the Son of God, who was favored by God, would be so shameless as to seek cooperation with her!
Were they deliberately torturing a single woman like her? Is there any justice in this world?!
The Holy Monster covered her heart and let out a sad groan, her expression looking like she had suffered reverse mental damage from the player.
“Gah—”
Just as Xia Qi and the Saint were staring at each other, the door of Temple No. 2 was suddenly pushed open by a group of players. At the same time, the crossbowman's arrows arrived as expected.
Xia Qi dodged the arrow by leaning sideways, and the cushion that he had forgotten in his hand suddenly broke free from his hand and flew out of his hand.
With a "swish" sound, Xia Qi only saw a shadow flash before his eyes, and the soft cushion rolled away all the arrows flying towards him.
The cushion that rolled away the arrow seemed to be a child.
As more and more believers came chasing after them, the light in Temple No. 2 became brighter and brighter. Xia Qi gradually saw what the child looked like. The little boy was about 1.5 meters tall and wore a dirty holy robe. However, the robe looked very shabby and was covered with strange black spots.
Xia Qi looked closely and found that there were countless holes in the center of those black marks. Countless arrows shot at the little boy, and his body was pierced with arrows. However, the little boy seemed to be unconscious and helped Xia Qi block all the arrows. After the arrows pierced his body, spots appeared on his holy robe.
Combined with the iron virgin and other torture instruments that appeared in Room 17, Xia Qi took a breath and couldn't help feeling cold all over.
This little boy was obviously from the temple. After the believers of the new god overthrew the temple of the old god, they seemed to have carried out a brutal massacre of all the subordinates of the old god.
However, what Xia Qi did not expect was that Mr. Plague and his men did not even let the children go.
“Ouch!”
Seeing all the believers rushing in, the little boy roared at the crowd. The robber who rushed over first was accidentally sprayed with fresh breath by the little boy and immediately screamed.
"His breath is poisonous!" The robber staggered back a few steps and fell to the ground.
Xia Qi saw that the robber's SP value instantly decreased by 10.
Looking at the robber lying on the ground in a daze, Xia Qi finally understood why the robber appeared in the Iron Maiden. Because the robber had participated in the battle between the two gods, the little boy attacked the robber after he entered Temple No. 17.
The bandit's SP value was already low after he met the evil god, so he was caught as soon as he came downstairs, and he locked himself in the Iron Maiden. The reason why Xiao Ou was not affected too much was that his SP value was much higher than that of the bandit, and he was accompanied by Xia Qi, so the little boy did not attack the bandit.
After figuring out the reason why the little boy appeared, Xia Qi naturally couldn't let the child block the knife for him. He immediately took out his holy book and turned the page.
Before he lowered his head to read the words on the page, suddenly, a terrifying growl sounded beside him.
"roar!!!"
The page of the book that Xia Qi had just opened was blown back by the strong wind. He looked up in surprise and found that the Holy Monster was rushing towards the believers.
"ah!"
The Holy Monster's claws left an afterimage in the air. Xia Qi just blinked and saw five black claw marks on the trainer's face. The claw marks were so deep that the trainer's right eyelid was directly scratched off.
Before Xia Qi could see the Holy Monster's figure clearly, the Holy Monster pulled the crossbowman to the front again. She raised and fell her claws, and blood splattered everywhere. In just a moment, the crossbowman's right hand was twisted off by her.
"Ah!!" The crossbowman who lost his right hand let out a scream.
"Why is this female pervert so cruel?!"
Listening to the screams of the believers, the Holy Monster smiled grimly. She opened her bronze fang mouth and stuffed the crossbowman's bloody right hand into her mouth as if she was chewing sugarcane.
"Pooh."
The Saint Genius took a bite, then pulled her right hand out of her mouth in disgust and threw it into the corner without a care.
After throwing away the garbage, the Saint Monster's blue eyes rolled around, and finally, she locked her sights on the last thin, purple-haired man in the group of believers.
Xia Qi was shocked when he saw the Holy Lady Monster's ability to defeat ten players at once and kill them all.
He couldn't help but think that this saint lady was really hypocritical. She said she would not help, but she was extremely happy to kill the believers.
However, Xia Qi had been keeping a close eye on the Saint Girl Monster that was killing people everywhere, thinking that he couldn't let the Saint Girl Monster kill too fiercely, otherwise it would create more killing karma for the evil god...
Just at this moment, the Holy Monster's right hand reached out like lightning, Xiao Ou screamed, and was suddenly teleported in front of the Holy Monster.
“Hehehe—”
In the blink of an eye, the Holy Monster grabbed Xiao Ou's neck without any hesitation.
The corners of her mouth slowly opened up and she laughed oddly, as if she was looking at a delicious snack.
Seeing this, Xia Qi was horrified and shouted hurriedly:
"Saint, spare his life!"
