Chapter 13 Sealing Soul Skills? I never had any!
Chapter 13 Sealing Soul Skills? I never had any!
Dugu Bo's tone clearly carried a hint of schadenfreude.
After saying that, he decisively got up and left, fearing that he would be forced to drink the blood wine.
Sitting in his seat, Long Xingyu's face twitched slightly, his eyes flashing with a fierce light as he looked at the figure's back.
That old bastard is probably trying to disgust me because of the time I beat up his prisoner not long ago!
"Fine, there will be plenty of opportunities to settle accounts later. I can't escape His Majesty's mission," Long Xingyu thought with a muffled groan, raising his hand to pour the blood wine into his mouth.
"You're lucky, there are no other customers today."
The waiter's words were loaded with meaning, and he gave him a long, hard look.
He raised his hand, signaling to his companion by the bar to open the hidden underground entrance.
As if a seal had been broken, a thick aura of blood surged up instantly, emerging from the depths of nothingness.
Even Long Xingyu couldn't help but frown, recalling the intelligence he had gathered in Tiandou City. This place truly lived up to its reputation as a killing capital.
This fierce and bloodthirsty aura truly resonates with the throne of the god of apocalypse and slaughter. No wonder His Majesty once said that he was the most suitable person for this mission!
"The lucky ones are the other way around."
Long Xingyu stood up and glanced casually at the waiter.
According to the rules of the Killing City, if multiple people enter at the same time, they must first engage in a battle.
The waiter was just joking about this point, unaware that the man before them possessed enough strength to shatter the entire Purgatory.
Without further delay, Long Xingyu leaped into the darkness.
It fell several meters before landing steadily on the solid floor.
Release spiritual power from beginning to end, quietly covering the body's surface to avoid being ambushed or trapped.
Soon, the view cleared up again, revealing a long passageway that opened up into a bright and spacious area at the end.
A massive floating bridge hangs above the abyss, and ahead lies the Gates of Hell, where countless knights in black armor patrol back and forth, weapons in hand.
"It actually looks quite plausible..."
Long Xingyu strolled forward, observing discreetly.
Compared to the Heavenly Dou Empire legion they saw on the way here, this force can be described as elite.
But that's all; compared to the army of the Holy Demon Federation, they're no different from green recruits.
It should be noted that Lin Feng had been planning for hundreds of years to invade Douluo Continent, constantly selecting and reorganizing his army. Those who have survived to this day, even the lowest-ranking soldiers, are all elites.
That's why Long Xingyu's attitude was casual after reading it.
That nonchalant demeanor was observed by the surrounding black knights.
The captain, clearly displeased, snorted and stepped forward to block his way.
"You have not been tested and are not worthy to enter the City of Slaughter."
He held his weapon upright in front of him, pointing it at Long Xingyu who was walking towards him.
"You mean killing the competitor? In that case, I think killing you would be the same."
Long Xingyu didn't take it seriously and secretly mobilized his spiritual power without feeling any sluggishness.
Normally, once you enter the City of Slaughter, the soul skills in the Douluo World will become ineffective, and you can only use basic power.
However, he came from the neighboring Holy Demon Continent and was not considered a native at all. The local "rules" did not apply to him, so they had no effect whatsoever.
Sealing soul skills? Or even blocking the flow of soul power?
What does this have to do with me? I never had this in the first place!
He took the holy sword out of his storage space, gripped it in his hand, and quickly launched an attack, its light shining brightly.
With a sharp clang, the black knight coughed up blood and flew backward, his life force instantly waning and he died.
"How is it? Is it okay now?"
Long Xingyu is not a murderer, but he is by no means a saint either.
Before coming here, I had already learned about the situation in the Killing City through Dugu Bo.
From prisoners to guards, there is no innocent person; if you don't kill, you will be killed. The truth is cruel yet simple.
Within his body, the throne of the God of Doomsday and Slaughter stirred faintly, and the intense fighting spirit he felt was something he had never experienced before.
Looks like we've come to the right place!
Father-in-law, are you testing me?
After all, the Throne of the God of Doomsday and Slaughter was forged in the era of the war between humans and demons; you can tell what its attributes are just from its name.
But now, Lin Feng had already unified the Holy Demon Continent long before Long Xingyu was born, so he had no chance to kill.
Even after arriving in Douluo Continent, for the sake of long-term interests, one cannot indiscriminately commit mass killings; one can only engage in necessary battles.
The only exception is the City of Slaughter.
There is no psychological burden, and one can be completely uninhibited.
Once I achieve a hundred victories, my compatibility with the Divine Throne will probably be at its maximum.
"You killed him, so you are qualified to enter the Killing City. Welcome to death and hell."
Another Black Knight stepped forward. He also appeared to be a captain-level officer. His voice was cold and indifferent, unmoved by the death of his teammate.
He tossed out a token, which was the "identity card" of the Killing City. Long Xingyu already knew about it and accepted it without any surprise.
Then, under the watchful eyes of countless black knights, he calmly walked through the towering gate. The woman with a black veil had been waiting for a long time and smiled as she welcomed him in.
"Was that guy cheating?"
A moment later, a burly black knight appeared.
Beside him followed several men clad in black robes, faintly emanating strange energy.
Upon hearing this, one of them shook his head and responded to the Black Knights commander's words with a tone of surprise and incomprehension.
"Sir, we did not detect any fluctuations in soul skills."
"That guy didn't even activate his soul power."
"This is so strange. Judging from the methods used, it should have involved some kind of energy, but why can't we detect it?"
Upon hearing this, the Black Knight Commander frowned and stared at Long Xingyu's retreating figure. He paused for a moment, but chose not to delve any further, as the rules and bottom line here were flexible.
"Since no soul skill was used, it's not a foul."
"A victory is a victory; the City of Slaughter doesn't care about anything else!"
"Go and dispose of that good-for-nothing's body. Also, send a few more men to keep a close eye on that guy from earlier."
The Black Knights commander gave the order and turned to leave.
Long Xingyu, who had already gone far away, was unaware of these incidents.
Or rather, even if he knew, it wouldn't matter; he was there to complete the mission.
As long as we steadily and surely handle all of His Majesty Lin Feng's instructions, other troubles will be nothing.
"Welcome to the City of Slaughter, I am your guide."
"I will answer all your questions within twelve hours."
"After that, you will officially become one of them, enjoying depravity and slaughter."
The woman leading the way had a seductive voice, explaining Long Xingyu's doubts and filling in the gaps in his understanding.
What he found most valuable was the information about the law enforcement team—that these people could use soul power.
Furthermore, the captain is a titled Douluo, and above him is the King of Slaughter. If we want to complete the mission safely, these two guys are the biggest threat!
"Since you've just arrived in the City of Slaughter, I suggest you spend some time getting used to the outer city."
"Even if you have some special methods, the cruelty of the inner city means that strength alone cannot guarantee self-protection."
The guide gently reminded him, and Long Xingyu wholeheartedly agreed, already having a plan in mind.
To allow the legions of the Holy Demon Federation to descend upon Douluo Continent in large numbers, a stable, large-scale teleportation array is needed.
Even if only elite troops are dispatched, it would still require a complex setup. Inscribing the array patterns on the outer city should make things much easier.
"Okay, I don't need the newbie protection period."
"You should leave now. I want to wander around on my own..."
