79: A three-way standoff!

At the end of the plaza.

Two ten-meter-tall Golden Executioners stood motionless, their halberds cold and menacing under the sunset.

On the high platform to the left, seven figures had already seized the high ground.

The giant in the lead, Jack, was slowly wiping his alloy gauntlets.

The elite white men behind him had steady auras; one look and you could tell they were ruthless characters who had crawled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

This was Jack's team from the North American region, their combat power at the ceiling level.

At this moment, Chen Du walked out from the shadows of the clock tower with the women.

Counting Little Ai and the pet dog Mao Mao, whom they had just retrieved, it was a top-tier lineup of seven people and one ghost.

The two sides were a hundred meters apart, their gazes clashing.

Neither side made a rash move.

Because everyone's eyes were locked firmly on the end of the plaza—

In front of those tightly shut golden giant gates sat two ten-meter-tall Golden Executioners.

The cold light of their halberds was oppressive, and those ruby eyeballs, like two blood moons, stared at every living thing that dared to approach.

"Yo, isn't this the handsome guy from the East?"

A voice, like arsenic mixed with honey, broke the silence.

Scarlett walked gracefully from behind Jack.

In this dust-filled ruin, she wore a high-slit red dress, as alluring as a poppy that had just gorged on blood.

She stared at Chen Du, her gaze raking over him like a hook.

Finally, it landed on the women behind him with a sinister tone.

"Tsk tsk tsk, how did my Queen Pheromone taste?"

Scarlett covered her mouth and chuckled, her standard Mandarin full of malice: "Looking at how full of life you are, the poison must have been cleared very thoroughly."

She deliberately raised her voice, afraid that the people around wouldn't hear.

"Let me guess, which pretty sister sacrificed herself to be the antidote? Or is it that... you all had a group activity together?"

Once these words were out, the lethality was greater than bullets.

Typical slut-shaming!

Li Yaozhi's face turned deathly pale, her lips bitten almost to the point of bleeding, and for the first time, a desire to kill ignited in her cold, clear eyes.

"You're courting death!"

Xia Lai was even more hot-tempered; she raised her hand crossbow, ready to pull the trigger.

"You stinking bit—"

"Second Sister! Calm down!"

Xia Mo pressed down on her hand, her eyes locked firmly on the woman in the red dress.

Lin Keke and An Nuonuo hadn't reacted to the twists and turns in between, looking completely bewildered.

Little Ai had her mouth wide open.

Her gaze rapidly switched between Chen Du, Li Yaozhi, and Xia Lai, and she was likely already composing a hundred-thousand-word essay in her head.

"Shh—"

Seeing that Xia Lai didn't want to say more, Scarlett laughed even more happily: "Don't be in such a hurry to deny it, little sister."

"Looking at your awkward walking posture, the process must have been very intense, right?"

"No need to be shy, this is also a kind of survival skill, big sister understands."

This was naked psychological warfare.

The few men on Jack's team let out meaningful, boisterous laughter, their gazes wandering wantonly over Xia Lai.

Just when the other side thought Chen Du would be furious or caught in a dilemma,

He took a step forward, taking the opportunity to pull the murderous Xia Mo into his arms.

Before the other side could react, he went straight for those beautiful red lips and bit down!

"It tasted pretty good, I have to thank you for the assist."

As their lips parted, Chen Du looked straight into Scarlett's eyes: "However, compared to a doomsday public bus like you who anyone can get on, my woman is indeed much more fragrant and beautiful."

The smile on Scarlett's face began to stiffen.

Chen Du didn't give her a chance to interrupt at all, continuing his output: "How my poison was cleared, what does it have to do with you? Instead, you, the smell of filth can be smelled from hundreds of meters away."

"What, your boyfriend's toothpick can't satisfy you, so you want to come and borrow a light from me?"

"Want to play with me? I suggest you go soak in a disinfectant pool for three days and three nights, and come back to queue up after you've washed clean."

He sneered and sized up Scarlett's figure.

Finally, he shook his head in disgust: "But I'm not interested in used goods. I suggest you make do with my pet Mao Mao; the species are quite a match."

"Awooo?"

Mao Mao, who was chewing on a bone, raised its head, looking bewildered.

"Pfft—"

Lin Keke couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing: "Even Mao Mao rejects you!"

Xia Lai stared at Chen Du's back, dumbfounded.

Although this guy had a poisonous mouth and was a total scumbag, at this moment... he was surprisingly damn cool?

"You're courting death!!"

Scarlett was pushed past her breaking point by the retort, her exquisite face twisted into a ball.

Red mist filled the air around her; clearly, she had been poked in a sore spot and was on the verge of going berserk.

"I'm going to tear that mouth of yours to shreds!!"

"Wait."

Jack suddenly reached out to stop her.

This man, as strong as a tank, looked toward the right side of the plaza with a gloomy gaze.

"Someone is coming."

As soon as he finished speaking,

A burst of hurried and chaotic footsteps came from the right.

"Quick! While those two teams are arguing, let's rush in!!"

"That's the Golden Gate! There must be an artifact inside!!"

Five or six ragged players rushed out from the alleyway.

This was a ragtag army pieced together from players of different teams, also known as cannon fodder.

They were one by one blinded by greed, or driven crazy by the poison circle behind them,

And rushed like madmen toward the golden gate at the end of the plaza.

"That's mine! Don't anyone think of snatching it!!"

Running at the very front was a short, thin Southeast Asian player.

He had awakened some kind of speed talent, and his whole body turned into an afterimage, instantly crossing the plaza's center line.

Close!

The golden gate was right before his eyes!

As long as he passed those two statues, he could ascend to heaven in one step...

A look of ecstasy appeared on the man's face.

The next second.

Chen Du's pupils shrank violently.

In his field of vision, the Golden Executioner on the left, which had been like a dead object, suddenly moved.

There was no sluggishness of any mechanical start-up, not even the sound of wind.

Boom—!

A golden lightning bolt spanned the plaza!

The Southeast Asian player's ecstasy had not yet faded, but he stopped abruptly in mid-air.

It wasn't that he wanted to stop.

It was because a huge golden halberd had already slapped against him.

It was just like swatting a mosquito with a flyswatter.

After a dull thud,

The man didn't even have time to scream before his body exploded directly into a mist of blood!

Crushed flesh mixed with fragments of internal organs sprayed in a fan shape onto the golden gate, a shocking sight.

The remaining few cannon fodder players hurriedly braked, their soles smoking.

"This is a trap... we've been locked on!!"

"Run! Run quickly!!"

If you're rushing to reincarnate, how could king yama not collect?

The red light in the eyes of the Golden Executioner on the right flashed.

It held the halberd in one hand and stepped out.

The several-ton heavy golden body actually displayed a flexibility that violated the laws of physics.

The long halberd swept across, bringing up a shrill whistling sound.

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

Those few fleeing players were directly cut in half at the waist!

Their upper bodies were still crawling forward by inertia, while their lower bodies remained in place.

Blood quickly dyed the golden bricks on the plaza red.

"Ahhhhhh—!!"

The shrill screams echoed in the plaza.

It only lasted for a few seconds before returning to dead silence.

The two Golden Executioners slowly retracted their halberds and stood back in their original positions.

Only the blood dripping from the halberd blades proved that everything that just happened wasn't a hallucination.

"Holy crap..."

Lin Keke covered her mouth: "Is, is this a max-level character slaughtering a newbie village? Is the system not going to do anything? This is hacking!"

An Nuonuo shrank behind Chen Du in fear: "Captain... there is no scent on them, and no signs of life, it's like... a killing machine."

Chen Du narrowed his eyes, and a flash of gravity flickered deep within his Golden Wheel Pupils.

The sacrifice notebook in his mind was writing frantically, the entire page filled with blood-red warnings:

【Warning: Golden Executioner, 80% physical immunity! Comes with 50% physical damage reflection! Iron-headed baby killer!】

This is too discouraging!

Chen Du's gaze swept over those few broken corpses, and he said in a low voice: "Ordinary attacks are ineffective against them; charging in blindly is just suicide."

This was also the reason why Jack's team had been holding their ground.

This was simply not a Boss that could be piled to death by numbers.

"How about it? Chinese."

Jack turned around, his gloomy eyes staring at Chen Du, "Are we going to keep wasting breath here? As long as we don't deal with these two guard dogs, we'll all die."

He was seeking cooperation?

No.

This guy was looking for a scapegoat.

Chen Du sneered, just about to speak.

Suddenly.

From the ruin street behind him, a burst of manic laughter came.

"Hehehe... Hahahaha!!"

"Found you... finally found you!!"

Everyone turned to look.

They saw a man with one ear missing and a ferocious face, slowly walking out with five players wearing cherry blossom samurai outfits.

He was holding a dripping katana in his hand, and crazy killing intent burned in his eyes.

The person who came was none other than the real Tanaka Koji.

At this moment, he no longer had his previous high spirits.

His body was covered with wounds of all sizes, and only an ugly tumor remained where that ear had been cut off.

"Baka!!"

Seeing this familiar Chen Du, Tanaka Koji completely broke down.

That look wished he could eat his flesh raw and mince Chen Du into meat filling to make dumplings.

"It's you... it's you despicable Chinese!!"

"Causing me to be hunted by monsters! Causing me to be treated like a pervert! Causing me... to lose my dignity as a man!!"

Tanaka Koji roared hysterically, like a madman who had just run out of a mental hospital, pointing his long sword at Chen Du's nose:

"Today, even if Amaterasu herself came, she couldn't save you!!"

"Everyone! Get him!!"

"Chop him into meat paste! As for those women... catch them all alive!!"
