The Boss Behind The Game - Chapter 76
Chapter 76: The Demonic God vs. Hiderigami
Soon after, Sun Qi’s livestream broadcast was shared to several popular forums by his viewers, which attracted more people to the channel.
Everyone was shocked by Gu Yu’s transformation into the Demonic God. They could not imagine that a single player could attain such strength.
“Hiderigami!” the Demonic God bellowed. He raised his hand again as black stripes started to appear on his palm. These stripes started to swirl quickly as they gathered energy.
“Reveal yourself!” the Demonic God clenched his fist, grabbing the energy ball that had coalesced from the stripes. Then, he smashed it forcefully into the ground.
Boom!
The earth crumbled as debris flew everywhere. It was like a tectonic event, land plates shifting back and forth, thrown into turmoil. The Demonic God’s imposing aura permeated the atmosphere of the burial grounds, making even the usually bloodthirsty bones spirits tremble in place.
Vicious gales were whipped up by the commotion, which gusted around the entire place. It was as if Armageddon had fallen upon the land.
In the comments section:
“Oh my god, this is not the Invincible_Loneliness that I used to know! This is so frightening…”
“How much money did he have to pay the game company for them to make him so overpowered? Is he still human?”
“This strength… is it possible for a player to achieve that? I’m so excited right now!”
“Even the earth crumbled from the force of his attack… is he really The Demonic God? I thought that the white doggy was just joking about it.”
“Are they going to release a new expansion pack soon? The Invasion of the Demonic God?”
“This is way too scary… Invicible_Loneliness can probably go up against Tao Wu at this point!”
“I guess Invinvicible_Loneliness must have triggered some hidden quest, which caused him to be possessed by the Demonic God. Do you think us players can even take him on in this state? I’m scared!”
……
When the earth cracked apart, a gigantic coffin that was the color of blood started to rise up from underground.
When he caught sight of the blood coffin, the Demonic God’s red eyes glowed eerily. He lifted his right leg, and leaned forward slightly. Right after that, he disappeared, leaving an immense crater in his wake.
“Hahaha! Hiderigami!”
A grotesque smile appeared on the Demonic God’s face as he appeared in thin air. He slammed his fist downward as a gigantic hovering fist formed from his condensed Blood Qi, crashing into the blood coffin.
Boom!
Crimson rays shone from the blood coffin upon impact, staining the world with the color of blood. That scene reminded everyone of hell.
Under the unending assault of ferocious energy, the blood coffin started to emit ominous cracking sounds. Just a moment later, it exploded into pieces, revealing the red-haired, crimson-eyed Hiderigami that was encased in the coffin.
Boom!
The crimson rays of light intensified, creating a halo around the Hiderigami’s body.
The Hiderigami suddenly opened his eyes. His mouth fell open as he inhaled deeply. The crimson light that was bathing the outside world became distorted due to the tremendous suction force.
The Hiderigami’s mouth gradually turned into a vortex, and the suction intensified as it sucked all of the blood rays into its mouth.
The awakened Hiderigami turned his head and looked at Gu Yu, who was possessed by the Demonic God. There was a complicated expression on his face. He had never thought that he would be discovered by the Demonic God.
“You’ve become even stronger. Who knew that a mere wisp of evil thought would possess such tremendous power,” Hiderigami spoke slowly, his hoarse voice echoing throughout the area.
“You were the one who taught me that being emotionless was the only way to make me stronger. I have you to thank for this,” a murderous intent glinted in the Demonic God’s eyes. In a flash, he appeared next to Hiderigami, hurling a fist directly at its face.
Since it was facing off against the Demonic God, Hiderigami dared not be too arrogant. It raised its own fist to counter the Demonic God’s attack. Their fists collided, emitting a wave of immense energy. Blinding light that was accompanied by a roaring wind spreading out, dispersing the clouds in the sky.
“Do you think that a mere wisp of demonic thought would be enough to kill me? How ridiculous!”
Since it had been discovered, the violence within it was triggered as well. Its long red hair flowed despite the lack of wind as blood-red Qi seeped from its body and surrounded its entire being. The blood-red Qi flowed copiously from its source, painting stripes of red on the ground.
“Roar!”
As Hiderigami roared, the blood-red Qi swirled and condensed in its left fist. It hurled out its Qi-charged fist, causing the Demonic God to be blasted away.
This blow was extremely powerful, plowing a bottomless fissure that was a few hundred feet long along the ground.
Even though Hiderigami had the upper hand right now, he still looked worried.
He knew very clearly that the Demonic God was an underworld deity who was recognized by the Six Paths of Reincarnation. He won’t be defeated that easily, despite being a mere wisp of evil thought.
“Damn you, God of the Underworld!”
A terrifying roar that seemed to come from the Nine Nether Regions of the Underworld could be heard coming from the fissure. Then, a gigantic blood-colored hand broke through the earth, appearing from the depths of the fissure.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The earth crumbled again as a gigantic figure climbed out from the ground.
Looking at this gargantuan blood-colored figure that was hundreds of feet tall, Hiderigami’s pupils contracted.
“It’s not the end yet!” the Demonic God got to his feet as he straightened himself. He then looked at Hiderigami with a mocking look on his face.
These two figures looked at each other for a moment before disappearing at the same time. Then, they once again collided in the middle.
Every hit and strike they made landed forcefully on their opponent. The energy generated from their clashing was channeled to their surroundings. The earth kept giving away as it could not support such pressure.
Sun Qi, who was hovering high above them in the cradle of the Demonic God’s black mist, was completely flabbergasted by this scene.
Just like Sun Qi, every single player who was watching the fight was also stunned by the sheer strength they saw, which was beyond their imagination.
“Umm… if the Demonic God really invades us… then what should we do!?”
“I guess we would be bound to an infinite cycle of throwing ourselves against him and dying. Even if we repeated that cycle hundreds of times, I think it’s unlikely that we would escape the fate of being killed instantly…”
“That kind of power is truly terrifying, it’s practically beyond what I could have imagined…”
“I’m scared to death! When gods fight, us commoners can only shiver in fright…”
“This is indeed a fight between two deities. Luckily I didn’t go to the burial grounds today with my friend to farm drops from the bones spirits, or else we’d probably get torn up by the force of their fight. (facepalm)”
“This is way too scary, please… Mr. Demonic God, please don’t invade us! Everybody, let’s start a thread and bring it to the attention of the developers. If the unthinkable happens, whatever rune warriors, whatever cursed apostles, whatever hidden character classes would still be unable to avoid the fate of being killed instantly (facepalm)”
……
The battle was still raging on.
Both parties were equally strong, so they have reached a stalemate.
“I call upon the Nine Zombified Snakes!”
Their fists collided again. This time, Hiderigami eye’s flashed crimson as nine huge blood-red snakes appeared behind him.
“Asura’s Eight Arms!”
At this moment, the Demonic God snarled as six arms extended from his back.
Crash! Boom! Boom!
The battle intensified as the nine zombified snakes and the Demonic God’s six arms clashed frenziedly.
The earth caved in further. The burial grounds were utterly ravaged by the ferocity of their attacks, causing lava to gush from the cracks on the ground, which formed magma pillars around the battleground.
In the comments section:
“Oh my god, if they continue to fight like this, the entire burial grounds will disappear.”
“Let’s all put our hands together and pray that they won’t migrate to another place to continue their fight. Please gods, don’t come to the Mansion of the Dead!”
“I have a question… who is the one fighting against the Demonic God? How can he be so strong as well? He is not inferior at all!”
“I guess he’s a deity, too. I heard the Demonic God call him Hiderigami, so it seems like he is the legendary ancestor of the zombies!”
“Oh my god, this is so motivational! If I train for another twenty years on this account, do you guys think I can possess such strength as well?”
“Replying to the above, nothing is impossible! There is a relatively high level of freedom in this game, so you might even come across a miracle and possess such strength in just one year! Look at Invincible_Loneliness, he was talking about buying soul coins to upgrade to purple equipment in the group chat yesterday. But today, he has turned into the Demonic God! There’s no need for him to get any purple equipment now.”
