We evil gods must hide.

Chapter 4 The Knight of the Black Mist

Goblin One still remembers it clearly many, many years later.

After he shouted it out to Gudu Na.

That wretched black-haired human.

He simply glanced back at himself, his dark eyes showing no fear or panic, his movements methodical, as if he didn't care about anything.

All Number One could see in his eyes was a vast, inky ocean.

With the detachment of a deity observing the world.

He turned around, dressed in clothes even more tattered than himself, and walked steadily toward the seemingly invincible King Gudu.

The enraged goblin warrior threw away the severed limb in his hand, and a blood-red maw roared so loudly it hurt the eardrums. His massive hammer, accompanied by a terrifying whooshing sound, crashed down on the man.

A sense of anticipation welled up in Number One's heart.

This annoying and eerie black-haired human will surely be reduced to a bloody mess under the hammer!

then.

Not only Number One, but even Gudu was stunned.

The man merely turned slightly to the side, and the hammerhead landed at his feet by the slightest distance, the stone fragments that bounced up from the impact leaving several bloody scratches on his body.

Number One overheard the other person muttering.

"Ouch, that hurts."

Then, without turning his head, the despicable black-haired human dusted himself off and walked straight out of the temple gate, leaving the goblins dumbfounded.

"roar!"

"Gudu is going to kill you!"

The goblin warrior was the first to react; he pounded his chest and chased after them, and the hall returned to calm.

Goblin One stood there, dumbfounded.

...

Lynch could clearly feel his heart beating faster.

The roars of the goblin warriors behind him and the thud of heavy objects hitting the ground nearby served as constant reminders to the fallen evil god.

The danger is not over yet.

"Human thief, stop right there! Gudu's going to stew you and eat you!"

"It's all your fault, Gudu's wound hurts so much!"

A little troublesome.

Lin Qi frowned slightly.

The endless grind for stats in the dungeon over the past few days had worn down his emotional fluctuations to almost nothing.

With 20 more points of stamina and nearly twice the agility of Gudu, he had the confidence to deal with things with ease. With his agility increased, the movements of ordinary goblins appeared extremely slow to him. If he wanted, he could easily dodge the attacks of seven or eight goblins with ease.

The trajectory of the goblin warrior Gudu's sweeping hammer swings is also clearly discernible.

but.

The power of the stone hammer, carrying the force to split mountains and shatter rocks, was still terrifying. Even if he predicted the landing point half a breath in advance, the violent hammer wind or the flying debris would still make him feel pain.

It is easy to imagine that if you were accidentally touched, you would suffer severe injuries such as torn skin, broken bones, and severed tendons.

We still can't be careless.

Lynch abandoned his plan to tease the goblin warrior and focused solely on running forward, leaving Gudu roaring angrily behind him.

but.

Lin Qi couldn't help but feel a little curious about that mysterious being.

They actually managed to drive Gudu away head-on.

This is a goblin strongman with a strength of over 100.

However, Lin Qi frowned and looked ahead, instinctively running to the outside of Gudu's room.

Ahead lies a place that poor monster survey team member Richard has never set foot in.

Uncontrollable.

This feeling is awful.

The footsteps behind him grew heavier, the frequency of their attacks dropped significantly, and the injured arm hung limply at his sides.

The hammer was swung with a hint of weakness.

But the anger in his eyes grew stronger, clearly indicating he had no intention of giving up.

"Damn it, I have no choice but to keep going."

...

At the end of the passage, there was a narrow stone bridge.

Below was a bottomless cliff, with thick black fog surging up from below all the way to the bridge.

There was not a single ray of light on the opposite bank, as if an abyss lay before us, sending chills down our spines.

Lynch's breathing suddenly slowed down.

Not right.

This place is a bit like a boss room in a game.

can not go.

However, Gudu's roar had already crossed the corner, and the shadow of his massive body completely enveloped Lynch.

"Hehehe, you human thief, where do you think you're going to run now!"

"Gudu is going to eat you up like those annoying little dwarfs!"

The goblin warrior's pale face held a naive cruelty, his eyes filled with greed as he looked at the thin human before him, occasionally licking his lips.

It had a feeling that this human would taste delicious.

The giant foot approached step by step.

His body filled the entire dark corridor, leaving no gaps.

Lin Qi had no choice but to turn his back to the stone bridge and retreat step by step.

The chill behind him grew increasingly biting. As he walked to the middle of the stone bridge, a line of text suddenly appeared before Lin Qi's eyes.

[Hint: The mysterious entity has been alerted.]

The goblin warrior in front of them was still gradually approaching, saliva mixed with goblin blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.

They look really hungry.

Ta-ta-ta.

Just then, from behind Lin Qi, from the thick, all-encompassing black mist, came a heavy, rhythmic sound.

It looks like a horse's hoof?

Gudu stopped what she was doing and looked up blankly.

Lynch didn't turn around, but he saw the goblin warrior in front of him, who was so violent that he had lost his mind, and his expression changed from clear-headed to bewildered, and finally to terrified.

Just in an instant.

Without any hesitation, Gudu covered his head and ran, disappearing from the temple in the blink of an eye.

Only the evil god was left standing alone on the stone bridge.

Lynch heard thunderous breathing.

The tattered coat could not block the biting cold coming from behind.

My body felt a little stiff.

The sense of crisis emanating from the evil god even surpassed that of the first time he met Gudu.

He clenched his fist secretly.

"I am an evil god, an evil god!"

He slowly turned his head.

Behind him, a knight suddenly appeared.

Beneath the full-body black visor, a pair of eyes blazed like crimson flames. The longsword he held was longer than Lin Qi's, with serrated edges. Anyone who died by such a weapon would likely not be intact.

The horse beneath the knight was also completely covered in black armor, with not a single hair showing.

The man and his horse stood there, and they were actually much taller than the goblin warrior.

It blends seamlessly with the thick darkness behind it, appearing both sinister and powerful.

Lin Qi suddenly felt that the other party seemed more like an evil god.

【name:???】

【Race:???】

【property:???】

[Note: This is the being that Gudu fears most.]

Being targeted by this terrifying being, Lin Qi felt as if needles were pricking his skin in the air, making him feel uncomfortable all over.

He stood frozen in place, afraid to move, lest he cause any unforeseen changes.

Cha-cha-cha.

The black-armored knight gently tugged the reins, causing the horse's head to tilt and the tip of his sword to fall to the ground.

Lin Qi subconsciously took a half step back.

However, the black knight merely grazed the surface of the stone bridge with the tip of his sword, leaving a shallow, long mark.

Then it disappeared into the mist.

Does "Does it mean 'no crossing the line'?"

Lin Qi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Only then did he realize that his clothes were completely soaked with cold sweat, and exhaustion was pulling at his body.

"Luckily, the energy was all invested in physical strength, otherwise this evil god would have been in real danger today."

"Follow the numerical approach!"

"Go back and keep grinding!"

They carefully returned to the temple.

I wonder what the connection is between this temple and the one opposite.

But now is not the time to think about such nonsense. The poor monster investigator encountered far more strange things along the way than he had, and in the end, he still met his end at the hands of goblins.

The most urgent task is to ensure survival.

Lin Qi suppressed his inflated ego caused by the surge in stats and cautiously retraced his steps. Everywhere he looked, there were traces of destruction left by the goblin warriors, but the culprits were nowhere to be found.

In the complex temple corridors, besides the pervasive dampness and decay, there was also a faint smell of burning.

Lynch paused slightly.

fire?

Perhaps because he had been hungry for too long, Lin Qi could still faintly smell the aroma of meat amidst the burnt smell.
