How satisfying. This game character is just like me; he doesn't flinch when things get tough.
Yang Qizhou watched as his game character charged into the Purple Forest without a second thought, slapping his thigh in excitement.
Life is already hard enough as it is, and having to put up with the nonsense of an "Old God of the Abyss" is just too much. Since death is inevitable anyway, he might as well go out with a bang and screw over this ungrateful, immoral, and shameless deity.
Besides, he was the Fourth Calamity; game characters could be resurrected, so what was there to be afraid of?
Just do it.
"I want to see whether the Old God of the Abyss kills the Stomach of the Violet Orchid God, or if the Stomach of the Violet Orchid God eats the Old God of the Abyss."
With a slightly ferocious expression, Yang Qizhou continued the game.
Text refreshed on his phone screen.
"You see a terrifying shadow spreading from the sky, shrouding the top of the Purple Forest. Eyes overflowing with evil power open above, casting a gaze filled with mockery, malice, wickedness, and distortion upon you."
"Whispers from the 'Old God of the Abyss' echo in your ears..."
"He expresses that he is enjoying this cat-and-mouse game, telling you to run harder, for the more you struggle, the more excited he becomes."
"He continues, stating that he originally intended to kill you, his savior, ninety-nine times, but if the intensity of your struggle pleases him, he will reduce the number accordingly."
"The 'Old God of the Abyss's' attitude, as if you were merely a plaything, fills your heart with indignation, but soon you reveal a cold sneer, thinking to yourself: Damn bastard, since you like playing so much, then I'll play a big one with you."
"Your legs melt."
"You are being digested by the Stomach of the Violet Orchid God."
"The 'Violet Orchid God' suddenly stops devouring you because it has discovered a much more delicious prey."
"You see those beautiful purple trees suddenly shoot into the sky like tentacles, reaching toward the evil, distorted eyes high above, accompanied by the terrified roar of the 'Old God of the Abyss'."
"Although the 'Violet Orchid God' is no longer deliberately devouring you, your body is still dissolving at a speed visible to the naked eye."
"You are enduring unimaginable pain."
"You do not lose consciousness, but instead stare with a ferocious gaze at the battle between the 'Old God of the Abyss' and the 'Violet Orchid God'."
"Your fury toward the 'Old God of the Abyss' makes you unable to bear missing this grand spectacle; you endure the hellish pain, determined to witness the final end of this bastard."
"You see the giant-god-like body of the 'Old God of the Abyss' dissolving, being consumed by the 'Stomach of the Violet Orchid God'."
"You see the 'Old God of the Abyss', unwilling to fall just after regaining his freedom, unleash all his power, authority, and symbols. Evil energy floods the sky and earth, the world shakes, and countless branches of the 'Violet Orchid God' wither rapidly."
"You see the 'Violet Orchid God' use all its tentacles to strangle the 'Old God of the Abyss' tightly, digesting his body in an attempt to devour him completely."
"You see the 'Old God of the Abyss' open his blood-stained maw and tear off the branches of the 'Violet Orchid God', causing it to let out a shrill scream."
"Your body is completely digested by the 'Stomach of the Violet Orchid God'."
"You have died."
Damn "Old God of the Abyss," you don't know the meaning of gratitude. Even if you don't die this time, you're going to lose a layer of skin.
Yang Qizhou looked at the latest plot developments, feeling pleased and clear-headed.
If the "Old God of the Abyss" was killed and eaten by the "Violet Orchid God," that would be for the best; an ungrateful wretch like that deserves to become excrement.
If he didn't manage to kill the "Old God of the Abyss," it didn't matter; he would just lead him into other dead zones.
The Ancient Dominator that gnaws on gods, the Hanging Mysterious Person...
In this wilderness where mystery and the unknown coexist, and horror and strangeness thrive, there was no shortage of terrifying existences. Yang Qizhou had plenty of time to play, and he could afford to play.
"Stupid guy, trying to fight to the death with the Fourth Calamity? I'll show you what cruelty really is."
The game continued.
"Paying the price for your greed, explorer, you who have been hunted by the 'Old God of the Abyss' repeatedly, your soul has once again arrived at the River of Death."
"The 'Doom-Bringing Raven' does not cry. You have returned to the moment before your last choice; you cannot roll back."
"The light of protection has dimmed by 'two-thirds'. The remaining fate power is only enough for you to rewrite the outcome of your death one more time."
"Special event triggered..."
"Despicable, shameless, dirty, and devious explorer, thanks to your schemes, the 'Old God of the Abyss' and the 'Violet Orchid God' have perished together. Counting the previous 'Lord of the Dreamy Hidden World', you have now successfully schemed to kill three gods."
"This is a 'Fate Achievement' that is not glorious but carries a high rating. Even Fate itself is amazed by it."
"You have obtained the Fate Achievement... Enemy of Gods."
Enemy of Gods (S-Rank): This is a highly unique achievement that can only be obtained by using extremely despicable means to kill three or more gods. Achievement Effect: Any god will perceive a certain level of danger from you and will treat you with greater caution.
The surprise came too suddenly; Yang Qizhou could hardly believe it.
The "Old God of the Abyss" and the "Violet Orchid God" actually perished together? Damn, was the battle that intense? Old God, brother, even though you're an ungrateful bastard who not only killed your savior once but also camped my corpse, it's truly tragic to die right after breaking free.
Yang Qizhou gave a thumbs up to the miserable end of the Old God of the Abyss, or rather... observed a moment of silence.
Then, he turned his attention to the notification that followed.
Finally obtained a "Fate Achievement"?
An S-Rank rating should be quite high, after all, it was bought with the lives of three gods.
It's just that the effect of this achievement is a little... how should I put it... it feels quite suitable for showing off.
Imagine the game character wearing the Garment of the Hidden World, holding the Law Book of Windbell Town in the left hand and the Silver Relic in the right, with the Holy Redemption around the neck, plus the effect of "Enemy of Gods"—this intimidating setup might actually scare a god away when facing one.
Of course, Yang Qizhou still had a realistic grasp of his situation; there might be a chance to scare off ordinary gods, but if he were to face terrifying deities like the Mother of Beauty and Fertility, who could kill the Lord of the Dreamy Hidden World in an instant, he should forget it. A single glance from them might be enough to kill him.
"The Fate Achievement has been obtained. According to what Cheetah said, it should be time to unlock the Fate Shop."
The game continued.
Congratulations to the player for obtaining a "Fate Achievement". The new feature "Fate Shop" has been unlocked, and the new feature "Fate Auction House" has been unlocked.
Then, in the upper right corner of the game interface, the two icons for Shop and Exchange, which had previously been grayed out, lit up simultaneously.
So, obtaining a Fate Achievement didn't just unlock the Fate Shop; it also unlocked the Fate Auction House.
Yang Qizhou couldn't wait to open them.
