Slaughter City, Seven Seven Eight Eight
"Welcome to the Slaughter City, the capital of hell, a world filled with carnage. Here you can get anything you want, the stakes are your life."
The ethereal voice entered Su He's ears from all directions, and it was very similar to the artifact spirit in the Realm of Destruction.
Su He couldn't help but wonder if all the spirits in the world created by the gods had the same voice acting.
The Martial Soul of the Abyssal Golden Lion had been fully attached to Su He's body. Su He continued to walk forward in the dark. After turning a corner, a faint light finally shone on Su He.
It was a door.
There were noisy sounds coming from the other side of the portal, clearly indicating the presence of life.
When Su He stepped out of the pitch-black passage and opened the door, the world outside finally came into view.
What Su He saw was a black city. The thick black city walls were extremely wide, and a purple moon hung in the sky above the city.
The moon was very close to the ground, appearing to be only a few hundred meters away. Looking up further, the sky was completely black, like a cloudless night, creating a sense of oppression.
There were two rows of heavily armored warriors at the entrance, about a hundred of them, all clad in heavy black armor and wielding sharp swords.
The leader of these heavily armored warriors rode a tall horse also clad in black heavy armor, wielding a finely crafted black iron spear that gleamed coldly, exuding an aura of extreme danger.
"Those who violate the rules, prepare to die." A strange, hoarse voice came from the black-armored knight.
"I am the Terror Knight Thompson!" After introducing himself, the black-armored knight raised his lance and charged towards Su He.
Su He made no attempt to dodge, and didn't even raise her hand to defend herself against the spear attack.
The spear pierced the Indestructible Golden Body shield, producing a crisp metallic clang, yet the shield showed no sign of breaking.
The Terror Knight was merely a squad leader in the Slaughter City's enforcement team, at most a Soul King level; how could he possibly break through Su He's defenses?
Without saying a word, Su He reached out and grabbed the lance of the Terror Knight Thompson, snatched it away with a slight effort, and casually broke it in two.
Such immense force caused the surrounding black-armored warriors to gasp in surprise, but that wasn't the most astonishing part.
Su He grabbed the half of the spear and plunged it directly into the black-armored knight's heart.
"No, you're breaking the rules..." Black-armored knight Thomson uttered his last words before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.
"He... he killed Lord Thomson!"
"No, go and report to the envoy immediately!"
The black-armored warriors were all subordinates of the Terror Knight Thompson, and now that their superior was dead, they were all in a panic.
Immediately, black-armored warriors ran off to find the so-called messenger.
Su He was not in a hurry. He would deal with whatever came his way. Today, he wanted to see the true face of the envoy.
If everyone wants to stop him, then just kill them all.
Since arriving in Slaughter Town, Su He has forcibly changed her mindset.
While he may be described as decisive and ruthless in public, he has always remained true to himself and never wavered in his principles.
In the Slaughter City, the rules outside don't apply. Here, it's either kill or be killed. To survive here, you must first learn to adapt to the survival rules.
Before long, the so-called envoy from the Slaughter City arrived before Su He.
It was a woman wearing a black veil, with only her eyes visible, but it could be vaguely discerned that she was quite beautiful.
"Welcome to the Slaughter City, sir!" the Woman in Black Veil said to Su He first. Judging from her tone, even though Su He had killed the Terror Knight Thompson, she had no ill intentions towards Su He.
"I am the messenger of the King of Slaughter. You have defeated and killed the Terror Knight Thompson, thus gaining entry into the Slaughter City! This is your token."
As the Woman in Black Veil spoke, she tossed a token to Su He. Su He smiled and accepted it. He naturally knew the token's purpose: it was the pass to enter the city of the Slaughter City. The token had four characters written on it, "Seven or eight."
Su He was amused by the number, thinking that this would be his code name in the Slaughter City.
After walking for a while, the city gates of the Slaughter City came into view.
The city gate was entirely black, with the four large characters "Slaughter City" hanging above it. Below the gate were two rows of heavily armored black-armored warriors, dressed similarly to the group Su He had just encountered.
They stood there quietly, showing little reaction to Su He's arrival. Su He guessed this might be related to the Woman in Black Veil beside her.
The moment Su He stepped through the gates of the Slaughter City, he felt that all of his Soul Skill were restricted and rendered unusable.
One can't help but marvel at the mystique of these divine ruins, which have even touched upon the power of rules.
Following the envoy through the city gate, Su He finally saw the entire city of Slaughter City. The city was entirely blue-purple, with streetlights emitting these two colors. There were quite a few people around, and no one noticed him, the newcomer.
Aside from the somewhat gloomy and dark atmosphere of this underground city, it's not much different from an ordinary city.
"I am your guide. You may ask me any questions within twelve hours, and I will answer them to the best of my ability. After twelve hours, you will become a member of the Slaughter City and live here."
Su He nodded. He already knew most of the rules here, so there was no need to ask any more questions. He decided to get straight to the point.
"What are the rules here?" Su He asked.
Although he had read Douluo Continent, he had forgotten some of the details. It was very important to clarify the rules before starting.
"Legend has it that the Slaughter City the domain of a Soul Master who broke through to level 100 and became Becoming a God a thousand years ago. Here, people cannot use any Soul Skill and can only rely on their own strength and instincts to survive. The rule is that there are no rules. Here, you can do whatever you want. Even if Titled Douluo from outside comes here, he will be weakened because he cannot use Soul Skill. The Slaughter City protect its people."
"Titled Douluo?" Su He somewhat surprised, but still decided to find out the true combat strength of this Slaughter City. "Even without using Soul Skill Titled Douluo can easily slaughter low-level Soul Master."
"Mr. Seven Seven Eight Eight, you don't need to worry about these unnecessary things at all." The Woman in Black Veil saw through Su He's meaning and explained to him with a smile, "There is a powerful law enforcement team in the Slaughter City. The Terror Knight Thompson you just killed was just one member of the law enforcement team. The real powerhouses in the law enforcement team are Soul Douluo who are permitted by the King of Slaughter to use Soul Skill, and their captain is even a Titled Douluo!"
Although Su He had been mentally prepared, she was still shocked at this moment. It seemed that even if Titled Douluo from outside entered the Slaughter City, it might be a one-way trip with no return.
For the many Soul Masters in this Slaughter City who are restricted by the rules, Titled Douluo who can use Soul Skill is nothing short of a god.
