Purgatory Artist-Chapter 421: Find a Helper
Chapter 421 - Find a Helper
The Inner World.
The palace.
Liu Ping walked along the long hallway until he reached the door of a certain room.
Clang!
He kicked the door open.
There was a long table inside the room, several expressionless strange people were sitting around the table, seemingly discussing something.
As soon as Liu Ping appeared, all the strange people stopped talking.
They looked up at Liu Ping.
A few lines of text appeared in front of Liu Ping's eyes. He glanced at the first line of text:
[Firstly, as a Nightmare Primordial being, I desire to obtain a soul, as well as to increase my position within the Nightmare Sequence]
This was the hint that the little girl gave me.
Liu Ping walked towards the group of eccentrics and said in a sharp voice, "Everyone, you all know that I have received a mission. I will soon complete it and become the right hand of the great existence. I believe that all of you know this."
The strange people looked at him without saying a word.
But Liu Ping could feel it.
It was filled with envy, jealousy, and brutal killing intent.
Liu Ping pulled a chair over, sat down in front of the strange people, put his hands on the table and continued: "I need to become stronger as soon as possible, so which one of you is willing to become my subordinate?"
One of the strange people couldn't help but mock him: "Who do you think you are? You're not as strong as any of us here, our Sequence ranks are much higher than yours, don't think too highly of yourself "
The other strange people coldly stared at Liu Ping without saying a word.
As if the silence was the best form of mockery.
"You're not welcome here, scram" the strange person continued.
Liu Ping glanced at the void of space.
His gaze fell onto the second line of text:
[Secondly, within the Nightmare Sequence, if you kill an existence at the top, you will be able to replace its position]
Amidst the silence, Liu Ping raised his hand and raised a finger: "Speaking of rankings, I have a small magic trick that I'd like everyone to enjoy"
He used his finger to point at the strange man who had mocked him.
Instantly, lines of text appeared in the void of space between the two of them:
[Under the witness of this Sequence, the Nightmare Summoner has issued a battle invitation to the Flesh Devourer]
[The Nightmare Sequence ranking battle cannot be rejected, this battle has been established]
Sha
Liu Ping and the strange person disappeared from the table at the same time.
One.
Two.
Three.
Liu Ping suddenly appeared in front of the table.
He lowered his voice and said, "The longer it takes, the easier it is for the magic trick to be exposed. Fortunately, my performance this time was considered a success."
A head dripping with blood was gently placed on the table.
"Dang dang dang! Its body disappeared, but I obtained its ranking. What does everyone think of this magic trick? "
Liu Ping said proudly as he glanced at the void.
[Third, in the Nightmare Sequence, the stranger, the more incomprehensible, and the more powerful an existence is, the easier it is for other existences to feel fear.]
This was the third prompt that the World Spirit left for him.
There was a commotion among the eccentrics sitting at the table.
Another strange person said, "Looks like your 'mission' has made you forget yourself. You should know that the Dark Executioner is the strongest."
"Become my subordinate and follow me to kill it," Liu Ping said.
"You're crazy! It was the strongest in the underground palace! If we follow you, we'll immediately die in its hands! "Eccentric said angrily.
Liu Ping glanced at the void.
[Fourth, I've lost that black scale. It's controlled by the strongest Nightmare existence in the underground palace. That existence is responsible for monitoring my actions at all times.]
This was the fourth prompt that the little girl left for him.
At that time, he said, "Then I'll go and kill it."
"Kill it?
Countless Nightmare Natives are working for it. This will be very difficult, "the little girl said.
"This Nightmare Underground Palace has two flaws. First, it can't contact the guy in the depths of the nightmare. That's why there's an existence monitoring you and a guy with a mission in charge of reporting progress."
Liu Ping pointed at himself and said, "As long as I don't say anything, the guy in the depths of the nightmare won't know what's going on here."
The little girl asked, "What's the second flaw?"
"One flaw is enough. Let's go and kill them."
...
Liu Ping collected his thoughts and raised his hands to clap. He said, "Congratulations, you're half right. That guy is indeed the strongest in the underground palace."
He got up and walked to the strange person. He leaned over and whispered in its ear, "There's another half of the answer. I'll tell you right away."
Another line of text appeared from the void of space:
[Under the witness of this Sequence, the Nightmare Summoner has issued a battle invitation to the Dark Soul Specter]
[The Nightmare Sequence ranking battle cannot be rejected. This battle has been established]
Sha
Liu Ping and the strange person disappeared from the table at the same time.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
Liu Ping reappeared in front of the table, placed another bloody head on the table and spoke with a mysterious tone: "The other half of the answer is announced:"
"Those who don't come with me will die right now"
The remaining strange people became restless.
"Attack together!"
"Kill this crazy guy."
"He thinks too highly of himself, we'll hand him over to the Dark Executioner!"
They all attacked.
A crystal wall abruptly appeared in front of Liu Ping.
All the attacks were blocked by the crystal wall.
Lines of text quickly appeared on the crystal wall:
[The Nightmare Summoner carries a great existence's mission. If you try to kill him by ganging up on him, you'll be going against the great existence]
[All of you must die.]
The strange people exchanged glances.
Suddenly, one of them spoke up: "A duel! Only a duel recognized by the Sequence can take away that mission from him "
"That's right, if we win against him in a duel, his mission and everything else will become ours" another strange person followed up.
They all looked at the strange person in the middle.
That strange person stepped forward and walked in front of Liu Ping: "My Sequence number is 31st in the Inner Plane, I'm the strongest here"
"So you've decided to come with me to kill the guy ranked number one?" Liu Ping happily asked.
"No, I'm going to kill a madman like you" the strange person replied.
A duel had been initiated!
The two of them instantly vanished.
They appeared in an empty world, and in the void of space, a countdown number continuously appeared:
[The battle will begin in 10 seconds]
[10]
[9]
[8]
[...]
The strange person in front of him took off his cloak and revealed his true form.
A humanoid flesh monster with a jet-black body.
It had three heads, each of which stared straight at Liu Ping and spoke with a furious tone: "The best way to deal with a madman like you is to take everything from you"
Liu Ping stood still and spoke in a low voice:
In the void of space, the countdown ended.
"The battle begins!"
As soon as the line of text appeared.
The humanoid flesh monster disappeared from where it was and appeared directly behind Liu Ping. Its entire body turned into a huge mouth full of sharp teeth and swallowed Liu Ping directly.
It laughed: "This is the 'undeniable devouring', you can't even take a single hit from me, and you still want to be our master! Fool! "
Its voice suddenly stopped.
Two two-headed Soul Eater Demons stood on its left and right, stabbing all the spikes on their bodies into its body.
A voice came from above:
"How impressive, if I had stood still, I really would have died at your hands"
Liu Ping!
He had clearly been devoured, but he was still standing on top of the monster's head!
Sha sha sha sha
Blade phantoms continued to flash.
The humanoid flesh monster's three heads were sent flying, its crimson body was also cut open.
Another Liu Ping came out from its stomach.
"It's over?" this Liu Ping observed the flesh on its body and frowned.
"It's over, hurry up and go back, I'm also in a bit of a hurry" the Liu Ping who attacked raised his hand and looked at his non-existent watch.
"You're getting into character" the Liu Ping who was devoured smirked, turned into a shadow and waved his hand before disappearing.
One of the two-headed Soul Eater Demons instantly disappeared.
The other two-headed Soul Eater Demon appeared confused and asked: "Why are there two of me?"
Liu Ping explained: "This is one of my abilities, it can greatly increase your combat strength"
The two-headed Soul Eater Demon praised: "Impressive, I thought you would be devoured, but it turned out like this"
It looked at the void of space, only to see a few lines of text appearing there:
[Combat time: 11 seconds]
[You've defeated the other party and obtained the other party's ranking:]
[Inner World 31st]
[Begin warp]
Liu Ping instantly disappeared.
He returned to the room, still sitting on the chair.
All the monsters couldn't help but back away.
But Liu Ping didn't look at them.
He rested his chin on his hand and spoke with a contemplative tone: "I still haven't felt any reverence from you ... perhaps I should kill all of you?"
