The Devil's Deal

"He is the Boundless One."

"It took you through time and helped me complete my first [Gestalt Collapse]?"

Qin Yiguan slightly opened his eyes. "Otherwise, I would have been dead long ago?"

The boy lowered his eyes, "So that means..."

"That's right."

Black Calamity laughed, "Your 'consciousness' is nothing; you'll never be able to control [Gestalt Collapse]!"

"In other words..."

The boy was still repeating this sentence when he suddenly looked up. "So, in other words, there's a balance between my various personalities. And you suddenly appeared today, rattling off a whole bunch of scientific explanations. You're supposed to be a cruel and ruthless being, but suddenly you've transformed into a kind teacher. You must have other motives, like wanting something from me?"

What could you possibly need from me?

"You're inherently bloodthirsty; you've probably been killing people while I was away, haven't you?"

"Could it be that they've encountered someone they can't kill?"

"Your Black Calamity Fusion Rate is so high, and your methods are so unpredictable."

"Is there anyone you can't kill?"

"Does it have anything to do with me?"

"Is it one of my other personalities?"

"The Guardian were just trying to protect me. Child love sweets and are oblivious to what's going on outside. The Boundless One just lifted you up like a chick. It's indifferent and has no interest in you; it just wants to use your abilities."

"So."

"I also have a hidden personality that has never been revealed."

The boy looked at Black Calamity, "It... wants to kill you!"

Black Calamity was slightly taken aback.

But then the young man said, "Whether I am strong or weak, from a certain perspective, I am one of you. You want to recruit me to face the enemy together."

"You helped me before because you wanted to curry favor with me."

"Since I'm worth your court, I'm not entirely useless; I just don't yet know my own potential."

"Completely worthless."

"You just launched a series of attacks against me, saying that I am my conscious mind and can never control myself [Gestalt Collapse]."

"You did this to make me despair and lose all hope."

"Then."

You'll offer me a bargaining chip to tempt me.

"For example, you can enhance my [Gestalt Collapse]."

At this point, the boy raised his head and said, "Tell me, what can you give me?"

At that moment, Black Calamity took a slight breath.

But before it could speak, Qin Yiguan added, "You don't have to give it to me, but I can unite with your rivals and kill you instead."

"Hehe..."

Black Calamity suddenly touched his forehead and chuckled softly, "Qin Yiguan, you... heh... you really are something!"

Your analysis is absolutely correct!

Black Calamity looked up. "There's just one thing. My enemy won't just kill me, it will kill you too, and perhaps, it will kill everyone in the end."

Have you heard that saying before?

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend."

"We've made a pact; it guarantees the lives of both of us."

But Qin Yiguan suddenly interrupted, saying, "I don't want to hear your nonsense. Whether it kills me or not, you're the one who's gripped by fear right now, and all I want to hear is what bargaining chips you have up your sleeve."

Black Calamity's smile faded, and he stared at Qin Yiguan for a long time.

Suddenly, Black Calamity bent his left hand into a claw, reached into his chest, and pulled out his pounding heart.

But instead of bleeding from its heart, it dripped wisps of black smoke onto the ground.

"I'll give you 20% of the [Gestalt Collapse] Development Rate."

"This was separated from my body!"

"So, your Development Rate is now 25%!"

"You can at least conjure up a demon several meters tall!"

"Come!"

Black Calamity snarled, "Eat my heart, and you will obtain it!"

The boy's eyes remained calm, and he made no move. "It seems your crisis is more serious than I imagined?"

Black Calamity's lips twitched. "What exactly do you want?"

Qin Yiguan said, "My Fusion Rate is currently 35%, which means that the current upper limit of my [Gestalt Collapse] Development Rate is also 35%!"

"Hehe."

Black Calamity laughed, then pulled an organ resembling two lungs from its body, snarling, "Here you go, 35%!!!"

Qin Yiguan simply shook his head quietly.

Black Calamity's face contorted in a ferocious grimace. Suddenly, it gouged out its own eyes, cradling them in its palms. "This is the auxiliary ability for [Gestalt Collapse], ' Netherworld Glimmer.' With it, whenever you wish, a glimmer of light will appear in the darkness within your field of vision, assisting you in activating [Gestalt Collapse]!"

"Eyes, heart, lungs..."

Qin Yiguan smiled silently, "Actually, as the murderer who killed my parents, merely removing these organs from their bodies is not enough to quell my hatred!"

Blinded Black Calamity roared, "So what if I killed your parents? So what if I didn't? Qin Yiguan, I know what kind of person you are!"

"You are the most ruthless person in the world!"

You'll stop at nothing to achieve your goals!

You don't need to pretend to refuse here!

Your parents are dead!

"If you don't accept my gift, you will soon be killed too!"

"No amount of hatred over killing one's father or mother is as important as one's own life!"

now.

Black Calamity clutched his own entrails, his eyes vacant as he stared into the distance. "Besides," he said, "Before our common enemy arrives, you might die at someone else's hands! Let me tell you, that Jiu Zhengxuan, his abilities are very similar to mine. Without accepting my gift, you cannot defeat him!"

Qin Yiguan narrowed his eyes slightly.

The next moment.

The boy said, "You are my enemy, I wish I could skin you alive and tear you apart, but I can't bring myself to eat your disgusting internal organs. You don't need to play the victim in front of me. You can conjure objects out of thin air, so you can definitely conjure up your lost organs as well."

"I have one more request."

The boy's expression remained unchanged, his eyes cold. "Cook these organs right in front of me."

"You!"

Black Calamity Wrath.

Qin Yiguan suddenly laughed, "Are you in that legendary situation now, 'You don't like me, but you can't kill me?' Heh, never mind, I'll turn those feelings into a glass of fine wine and slowly drink it down."

now.

The sounds of chaos and fighting could be heard outside the tent.

Qin Yiguan tilted his head and listened for a moment. This was the headquarters of the Dog Gang, so it must be other gangs coming to seek revenge.

He also heard that Jingye Meinan had Awakening. If Chen Mudou hadn't been desperately holding him back, he would have rushed into the tent and fought Qin Yiguan to the death.

The boy calmly turned his head to look at Black Calamity, "How is it?"

Black Calamity let out a heavy breath, black mist swirling in his hand, his internal organs and eyeballs transforming into red wine served in a stemmed glass.

Qin Yiguan took the wine glass, swirling it slightly. "As you say, I am indeed ruthless in achieving my goals. Therefore, our cooperation is temporary. When I am powerful enough, I will still eliminate you without hesitation!"

"You..."

Black Calamity trembled, but its momentum eventually waned. "The reason the demon you conjured up earlier was so blurry was because you didn't have a corresponding image in your mind. In other words, you didn't have a real demon in your mind, no details. The effect of [Gestalt Collapse] will be greatly reduced. I can't help you with that; you need to collect the image yourself!"

"Thank you for reminding me."

Qin Yiguan looked at Black Calamity, a half-smile on his face, and said, "This is what you should do."

Black Calamity growled angrily!

The next instant, its heart and eyeballs grew out automatically, and its entire body transformed into a wisp of black mist, rushing out of the tent.

at the same time.

The dozen or so members of the Radiant Dragon Gang who came from the outside world to cause trouble were swept away by a black whirlwind and turned into a pile of dismembered limbs.

In the distance, the Dog Gang's henchmen, brandishing machetes and about to charge, froze on the spot.

The zipper of the black tent was unzipped.

The boy stepped forward.

Jingye Meinan, holding a baseball bat, froze in mid-air. He glanced at the mangled corpses on the ground, then looked at Qin Yiguan, swallowed hard, and said, "Qin... Boss, those people... were all killed by your abilities?"

The boy took a sip of red wine. "No."

Jingye Meinan's lips twitched. "Boss Qin, that's where you're wrong. That black whirlwind clearly came from the tent, and you were the only one in the tent!"

Immediately, Qin Yiguan looked at the baseball bat hanging in the air, "Meinan, are you waiting for me to come out so you can just whack me with that?"

You're talking about yourself!

"Since you enjoy me playing the caterpillar, why bother using your supernatural powers to control me?"

"Just say one word, and I'll act it out for you!"

"This stick is a prop!"

With that, Jingye Meinan planted the baseball bat in the ground, his body transforming into a caterpillar, ramming the ground and headbutting the baseball bat.
