Chapter 3484 - Untitled
"What?"
Gus's heart tightened.
They hated that the boxing champion had created them like chess pieces and played them like puppets.
But the education and environment he had received since childhood still made him instinctively respect and fear the boxing champion.
When he heard the news that the Fist King was coming, he was so scared that his brain went blank, and his legs went weak.
Taking a deep breath to clear his head with the intense smoke and the pungent smell of blood, Gus stammered, "Then—then what should we do?"
"Let me see. I need to do some calculations."
After saying that, Lu Qingchen returned to the steam ball in silence.
Gus could only grit his teeth and continue sweeping with the storm bolter and the Vulcan Machine Gun.
But this time, his fire suppression tactic failed.
Since the enemy had been prepared, he was surrounded by super experts who were even more advanced than the high priest of Heavenly Saints City. They were all boxing masters who had reached the 'Deep Sea Stage' or even the 'Heavenly King Stage'.
In the World of the Fist God, the warriors were classified into 'Beast King', 'Deep Sea', and 'Heavenly King'.
An expert in the Deep Sea Stage could punch their way across the ocean without being touched at all.
Cultivators in the Heavenly King Stage who had practiced the 'Fist of the Sky' could step on the air and walk on the wind!
At this moment, several priests of the Temple of Fist and the ascetics who had dedicated everything to the Fist God were launching attacks at Gus from above, as if they were stepping on invisible stairs and lotuses.
Their eyes were like those of eagles. They could often predict the movement of Gus' gun and calculate his trajectory.
It was extremely fast and could move among the crimson rays.
When the punch was launched, the edge of the fist could be dozens of meters away or even hundreds of meters away. Yet, it could still blow up rocks and leave ravines that were several meters deep on the ground. It was as powerful as Gus' spiritual gun.
His flesh was as hard as steel, and his skin was emitting bronze, silver, and gold colors.
Some of them even had dense hair or scales, which significantly improved their defense ability.
Even if Lu Qingchen had modified the parameters for Gus and turned on the 'unlimited ammunition' cheat that required no reloading,
Even the recoil of the spiritual gun was adjusted to one tenth of the real world.
However, after pulling the trigger a thousand times, the recoil was much less than before. Gus's arms, shoulders, and chest were still bruised and swollen, with blood leaking out.
As a result, his already unsatisfactory hit rate hit rock bottom.
"I—I can't hold on any longer!"
Gus fought and retreated, trying to find his main troops.
But there were more and more experts of the Iron Fist Legion around him. They were all charging at him fearlessly. Even if he blew them into pieces, they would still throw the blood into his face and eyes.
The young man almost collapsed. He screamed for help from Lu Qingchen, hoping that the devil could retrieve more powerful weapons for him.
"Of course, I can modify the parameters of the virtual world and get you a crystal suit or even a giant soldier.
But Lu Qingchen said, "But I suspect that it is a trap of the boxing champion. If I modify the data excessively, the boxing champion will lock onto me immediately!
"Then—"
Gus was dumbfounded.
Suddenly, he saw Andre's flag.
The shouting and the roaring of the steam engine were louder than ever. They congregated into a noisy ocean.
The firepower that Gus had attracted for a long time had finally paid off.
Other than the point where he was surrounded, in other places on the battlefield, the soldiers of the Iron Fist Legion were marching forward unstoppably.
Andre had also discovered that the 'Holy Son' was in a desperate situation and was rushing over to rescue him.
Gus was overjoyed.
But he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
When he looked back, he found almost ten priests and monks of the Temple of Fist standing in a line like a ferocious boa.
Those in the back all put their hands on the shoulders of the people in front of them and gnashed their teeth, as if they were pouring all their strength into the bodies of the people in front of them.
Their hair turned grey, their skin wrinkled, and their flesh withered, making them look like skeletons covered in wrinkled skin.
Just like that, one was teleported and the other was teleported. All the strength was focused on the priest at the front.
The man's body was three to five times larger than before.
It simply looked like a malformed, growing giant tumor. Its facial features were squeezed to the point that they were no longer visible.
And between his lightly separated palms, a dazzling ball of light suddenly appeared.
The immense energy that contained the vitality of almost ten priests and ascetics rose up like a small sun, illuminating the faces of everyone on the battlefield palely.
"Devil, prepare to die! This is the judgement of a true god!"
In the hysterical roars of the priest in the lead, all the priests and monks behind him offered their last bit of devotion and crumbled into ashes.
In the meantime, the light ball in his palm that seemed to be thousands of degrees hot darted at Gus like a cannonball.
In Gus's vision, the white brightness of destruction was more and more abundant until it occupied the entire horizon.
He subconsciously unleashed his strongest firepower, but it was unable to stop the tide of white light from swallowing him.
He vaguely heard Andre's shout, his sister's scream, and Lu Qingchen's growl.
Then, he felt that his body was stinging as if it had been cut into pieces. Then, he felt that he was soaked in warmth and comfort.
Then, he knew nothing else.
…
Gus slept for a long time.
It had been so long that he had almost forgotten everything about the devil.
When he woke up, he was in a trance and did not know where he was.
Looking around, Gus still could not get rid of the dream.
Because he found himself above the sea of clouds, lying in a fluffy cloud.
The sky was so close that he could almost touch it.
The mountains and the land were too far away. He looked down through the gaps of the clouds as if he were looking at a false model.
Clouds were rising and the sun was shining. Gold waves were rolling in the clouds. Gus could no longer distinguish the sound of wind and waves.
"I…"
Gus was in a trance, not sure whether he was alive or dead. He had never figured out the question since he met the devil.
"This is…"
Gus narrowed his eyes and gazed at the brightest part of the light.
He saw a splendid building that was as majestic as a mountain and as magnificent as a palace.
Gus held his breath.
He suspected that he was seeing things.
Is this the legendary 'Sky Temple'?
Gus muttered to himself.
According to the legends of the World of the Fist God, the core of the temple was not on the ground. The real temple was floating in the clouds, known as the 'Sky Temple'.
The Fist God was waiting in the sky temple for his most loyal and strongest believers to come and help them comprehend the ultimate meaning of the path of iron fists so that they could achieve the 'Broken Realm', which was even more impressive than the 'Heavenly King Stage', and achieve the ultimate power to shatter the void.
However, only the most loyal believers of the Fist God could enjoy such treatment.
How did a traitor, a degenerate, and a devil's follower end up in the 'Sky Temple'?
While Gus was confused, the sky temple suddenly shook.
The palace, which had been as magnificent as a mountain, suddenly rose to a height of thousands of meters.
In the meantime, two shining suns that were hundreds of times brighter than sunlight suddenly appeared on the top of the mountain. They seemed to be piercing into Gus' heart and transmitting the mysterious, surging information to him.
"You are here, my child."
In his trance, Gus seemed to hear a low and deep soundwave coming from the palace that was standing in the clouds.
Gus suddenly realized something.
The boxing champion was not in the sky temple.
The sky temple itself was the boxing champion!
