635: Chapter 687 An Ke's Smile: Life and Death Uncertain!

Where was the war in the surroundings?

It was a scene of peace, filled with beautiful grassland scenery.

It was a great place for a vacation.

However, though the sunlight shone on Kui, he didn't feel the slightest bit of warmth.

Before him, a beautiful young girl in a maid outfit plunged a dagger into his origin.

His robe was already tattered, and this strike was the final straw that broke the camel's back.

Kui wanted to raise his hand to attack the maid in front of him, but he couldn't even do that.

He could only stare blankly at everything.

He watched as the dagger plunged into his origin turned into a Little Hamster and climbed onto the shoulder of the beautiful maid.

Then, the mouse just sat on the beauty's shoulder and began eating nuts, sizing him up as it ate.

It even muttered, "That guy is really hard to kill."

Kui was somewhat dazed.

He was hard to kill?

He looked at the other demigods who had sided with him.

They had already fallen, their origins dissipated, leaving only tattered robes on the ground.

Clearly, they had been killed without much of a struggle.

Killed within a dream...

Just how powerful must one's Mental Strength be to influence him so stealthily without him even noticing?

There weren't even any signs of a fight, and this was called "hard to kill"?

Kui felt like the mouse was adding insult to injury.

The key point was that he was actually killed by a mouse.

He was utterly unwilling to accept it.

Kui swallowed hard; unable to maintain his demigod form, he began to revert to his original appearance.

Before, it was in a dream, but this time it was real.

Looking at his original self, Kui felt as if everything before had been a dream all along.

He recalled when he had first entered the game—lost, anxious, and ill at ease.

But through adventure after adventure, he grew and improved... until he finally became a demigod.

Having become a demigod, he began to act without restraint, venting his long-suppressed frustrations.

After all, no one could threaten him anymore...

But now, he had returned to his former self.

His heart was filled with uncertainty and anxiety...

He didn't want to die.

But having chosen the wrong side, his fate was already sealed.

Kui was filled with regret.

If he had known it would end like this, why did he refuse An Ke?

He clearly could have relied on An Ke and clung to such a powerful backer...

Unfortunately, one wrong move led to another.

Kui wanted to repent, but it was already too late.

Life is like that; sometimes when you make a mistake, you don't even get a chance to regret or correct it.

"Sigh..."

Kui chose to close his eyes.

He couldn't even self-detonate his origin now.

On the other side.

The demigods like Xu and Shi were equally deep in shock.

They never expected that everything just now had actually happened within a dream.

The origin self-detonations, the battles...

...it was all fake.

The reality was that the demigods were pulled into a dream and stood there motionless, easily hunted down by An Ke's group.

Such Mental Strength was terrifying.

It was no less than when Xiao previously made these demigods fight among themselves.

Everyone turned their gaze toward Hua Hua.

This neckless little rascal, who was munching on bamboo at every moment, made everyone's hearts tremble at this instant.

They felt a deep sense of fear.

Despite being so cute, it could cause several demigods to die so easily.

Kun and Ai Li breathed a sigh of relief.

The former rejoiced once again that he had agreed to An Ke's terms and made the exchange with him.

It was lucky he had chosen the right side; otherwise...

...he would likely have died right here.

As for An Ke.

He was indeed deep in thought.

Hua Hua hadn't changed his actions within the dream.

An Ke was thinking, and everyone waited quietly, not wanting to disturb his train of thought.

There was no helping it!

Who told him to kill so many demigods today?

How could any normal person dare to provoke him again?

However, demigods like Xu and Shi were very curious about what An Ke was actually thinking.

On An Ke's side.

The question he was pondering was simple: could he eliminate the disorderly origin through Fusion?

No matter the player, even demigods, the cores and origins they dropped were rewards of disorder.

And these rewards were the root of the players' pollution.

The more one had in their body, the faster and more severe the pollution would become.

As the ones who received the most rewards and benefits in the game, demigods were even less able to resist the pollution.

Because of this, Wu, He, and other demigods were also devoured and assimilated by Xiao.

However, An Ke discovered something.

He had fused quite a few of these cores afterwards.

Yet Xiao was unable to devour or assimilate him.

Didn't that mean...

An Ke's eyes began to flash wildly, and the corners of his mouth curled up bit by bit.

Around him, others also saw An Ke's expression.

The players who had only recently sided with An Ke somehow felt a chill in their hearts.

They felt as if An Ke was brewing something "perverted."

They felt a certain phrase was very apt to describe it: When An Ke smiles, the fate of disorder is unpredictable.

"Master, what perverted plan are you brewing now? Can you tell This Muscle Man?"

Jin Gang flapped his wings and landed on An Ke's shoulder.

But he quickly fell off.

After all, An Ke was only here as a consciousness body.

His real body hadn't come to the New World and couldn't enter.

An Ke ignored Jin Gang.

He raised his hand, summoning all the cores and origins of the demigods into his grasp.

Then, he clenched his palm.

He fused all these cores and origins, turning them into his own source power.

[Natural Affinity upgraded.]

[Current Natural Affinity Level 97.]

Level 97 meant that An Ke had become a Sequence 7 demigod!!

An Ke looked at the robes of the demigods and sneered:

"What does it matter if you refuse?"

"In the end, it still doesn't stop me from becoming Sequence 7."

After An Ke finished speaking.

He looked toward the demigods like Xu and Shi.

The demigods An Ke had dealt with earlier were those who had openly opposed him.

They wanted to have their cake and eat it too.

He had even given them protection, yet they still didn't intend to side with him.

They were terrified he would gain some benefit from them.

This behavior undoubtedly made An Ke very annoyed.

If they didn't die, An Ke felt he would develop a mental block.

The remaining six demigods, including Xu and Shi, trembled involuntarily when they saw An Ke's gaze.

However, thinking that since An Ke hadn't acted directly, there was a high probability they would be fine.

Although they hadn't had much contact with An Ke.

They more or less understood An Ke's personality.

If he really wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't waste so many words.

If An Ke was still willing to talk to someone, they should cherish it.

It meant he hadn't developed killing intent yet.

An Ke was a vindictive person.

"You few, what are your plans?"

An Ke spoke indifferently, his tone cold.

"Hehe, Boss, why don't we just kill them all?"

Aman grinned and chuckled.

If they were killed, An Ke could gain another boost; wouldn't that be wonderful?

There were already enough demigods.
