Chapter 152: Abnormal Gods
Because there is a rule in the City Lord's Mansion prohibiting fighting, no one dares to break it.
So even though the atmosphere was a bit heavy and tense, and Li Yu was being stared at by everyone, nothing happened in the end.
During the process, Li Yu also had to comfort his maid.
After all, from Hongdou's perspective, in this scenario, she will detect a large amount of malicious murderous intent directed at her master.
In fact, if Li Yu hadn't quietly held her hand and passed on the signal, she would have completed the transformation and drawn out the chainsaw sword to chop people.
Fortunately, this scene ended quickly.
When "Xu Baixi", dressed as a juggler, appeared, all the malicious glances were withdrawn and instead looked at the deacon with eager eyes.
This strong man saved Li Yu's life last night, but he couldn't take care of Li Yu at this moment.
His entire body was suspended above the large square of the City Lord's Mansion.
All around are mechanical camp platforms and other tall buildings.
All the pioneering teams, according to their numbers, from front to back, were almost fully present.
In addition, there are other members of the City Lord's Mansion, such as the scout teams that have to leave Wanfu City from time to time, the equally large number of security teams that are responsible for maintaining order in Wanfu City, and other miscellaneous members.
Li Yu became famous because he made the headlines of Wanfu Daily.
But in such occasions, especially when Xu Baixi appears as a "host", everyone's attention will only be focused on him.
Everyone knows that there is an important event to be done in the City Lord's Mansion today.
Inspection and selection of the God-chosen pioneer team!
Li Yu was also shocked by the scene at first. Shouldn't this just be a matter for the Chosen One? Why did so many people come?
Seeing his doubts, Zhan Kui sent a voice message to him:
"There was a new notification last night. The top management believes that not all God's Chosen Ones know their identities."
"It's possible that some practitioners have been noticed by their own true gods, but have not yet appeared to bless them. Perhaps they only need a small stimulus to achieve their goal... Therefore, everyone is allowed to participate in this inspection and selection. Maybe a hidden chosen one will be discovered."
"In addition, with so many practitioners of different paths and sequences gathered together, coupled with the arrangements in the City Lord's Mansion, there will be an extremely strong inspiration and aura here, which will attract the attention of the gods. Perhaps new gods will be born."
"For this reason, the top management decided to use a rare object that can accommodate many practitioners for the selection."
"As for what the treasure is, I don't know either."
……
When the leader finished speaking, Li Yu looked around.
Sure enough, the entire City Lord's Mansion was bustling with activity, and surrounding the Mechanical Square, it was as if a cyber concert was about to begin.
Practitioners from completely different paths gathered everywhere.
Li Yu was horrified by the complexity and majesty of the Qi.
This is also the moment!
Li Yu had some understanding of the terrifying background of the City Lord's Mansion.
Judging from the territory controlled, the City Lord's Mansion cannot even compare with some slightly larger markets, let alone the overlord of the four districts like Holy Nest. However, this cannot change the fact that the City Lord's Mansion is the number one organization in Wanfu City.
The key point is that this is just the tip of the iceberg of the City Lord’s Mansion’s strength.
After all, there was only one senior executive named "Xu Baixi" in the field.
Li Yu looked at the colorful juggler who was treading on the void, and his heart was filled with curiosity and desire:
"This person was able to instantly kill a terrifying mechanical iron-blooded squad. He is definitely not a starting sequence [Ninth Rank Idle Person], but most likely a second sequence."
"How strong can it be compared to the Sequences of other paths? Sequence Four?"
Just as Li Yu was guessing.
Xu Baixi, who was truly the center of everyone's attention, suddenly moved.
The handsome middle-aged man in colorful clothes first looked around and greeted with a smile, then looked at the forbidden area of the City Lord's Mansion farther and deeper and bowed slightly, then looked towards the unknown void sky and performed a very respectful salute.
When he moved, it seemed that nothing changed on the field, and most people didn't feel anything.
But Li Yu is different.
One of his natural talents is high sensitivity, which increased greatly after he was promoted to an alchemist. The most important thing is that he also possesses the soul of truth.
Among practitioners of the same level, no one can have as high inspiration as him.
So at this moment, he vaguely guessed what Xu Baixi was doing, and at the same time, he immediately felt the horrific changes at the scene:
"He regarded this square and the upcoming auditions as a stage for his performance."
"He is paying homage to the distinguished guests, the gods? Or the gods' gaze?"
"A bunch of evil gods are watching this place from across the world?"
When Li Yu realized this, his body suddenly tensed up.
The City Lord’s Mansion, is it such a big deal?
Can holding an event attract a group of evil gods to watch?
Then, could the [Lord of Change] be among them?
Suddenly, Li Yu realized something not so good.
As an imposter and thief of law, he is likely to act cool in front of the "real boss".
But before he could regret it, Xu Baixi started right away after saying hello.
He suddenly snapped his fingers so that everyone could hear it, and as soon as this seemingly insignificant action was over, a horrifying noise followed.
A loud rumbling sound suddenly came from the sky.
Immediately, just like the terrifying scene of "the evil star descending" last time, a gap appeared in the entire sky.
A ball of glow flew in from the sky, and after entering the city, it directly transformed into a huge magic weapon and landed on the square.
In an instant, horror appeared on everyone's face, including Li Yu.
It was like a tower that reached the sky! No one knew how many floors the tower had, because the top of the tower could not be seen, connecting the sky and the earth.
I can't see the specific appearance, details, etc. of the pagoda.
No matter how you look at it, you can only see that it is emitting a strange glow all over. It is clearly daytime, but the light is like strands of silk, piercing into everyone's eyes.
Just a few glances!
Ninety percent of the people in the field shed tears of blood.
The screams and wails were endless.
However, everyone's eyes seemed to be glued to the light after they came into contact with those strange rays of light.
Even though it was excruciating pain, with blood and tears flowing, and the body and soul were feeling the excruciating pain of being pierced by thousands of needles, it gave rise to many hallucinations, making people feel crazy and impulsive, rolling around, screaming, and some even started to pull at their own skin, trying to peel themselves off.
Even so, everyone's eyes were still unwilling to move away even a little bit.
In a trance!
This place seems to have become a "ground of execution of masses of people".
Everyone was tortured here together, and the scene was truly horrifying.
Li Yu and some special people are exceptions.
Although he felt a little sore in his eyes as he watched, that was all, and he did not feel any severe pain, nor did he go crazy.
"Ok?"
"So this is what they are doing. They set up a stage and invited the gods to watch, not to watch the selection and examination, but to torture the gods' believers."
"Let's see which evil god can't bear it anymore and takes action. Then, those hidden [God's Chosen Ones] that even the practitioners themselves don't know about will naturally be exposed."
"So insidious!"
"What a pervert!"
“But I think the evil gods know this, and they are happy about it… Judging from those inhuman secret medicine formulas and promotion rituals, almost every evil god likes to torture their believers. The more pain and struggle, the happier they are, so they cooperate with the City Lord’s Mansion to play a little.”
"All the gods have to do is just watch from a distance. It may seem grand, but in fact, it is just a little fun for them."
Almost at the same time when Li Yu realized it, all the practitioners in the field reached the critical point.
If this continues for a few more breaths, many people's minds will be wiped out and they will go crazy.
At this moment, all the strange lights disappeared at the same time.
Disappeared together!
And the evil gods are watching.
Come quickly and go even faster.
It seemed as if the reason why all the evil gods were willing to take a look from afar was simply to torture their own believers.
After watching it, I felt satisfied and left.
This made Li Yu feel relieved. At least his fake "Ever-changing God's Choice" was not at risk of being exposed.
……
The execution ground stopped, but most of the practitioners were still kneeling on the ground, their eyes tightly closed, tears of blood all over their faces.
Just when they were at a loss as to what to do!
Xu Baixi's merciless and even somewhat playful voice came:
"Everyone, you should now know whether you are God's Chosen One or not."
"This tower is called the Tower of Babel. Each floor of it contains a portion of the remains of a true god."
"If you are sure that you are the one chosen by God, you can enter the range of the aura and will be randomly teleported to the tower to face the corpse of the true God."
"If you come out alive, you can join the [God's Chosen Pioneer Team]."
"Believe me, the treatment you will receive after joining this pioneering team is enough to be comparable to the resources provided by every sect to train geniuses in spreading the Dharma."
"Of course, if someone is clearly not God's chosen one but still believes that he or she is resistant to the pollution of the True God, they can also try, as long as they come out alive."
As soon as Xu Baixi finished speaking, one figure after another suddenly left the original area and headed towards the Tower of Babel.
Most of them had intact eyes, without any traces of blood or tears.
There is no doubt that these people are all God’s chosen ones, which is why they were exempted from that strange punishment.
Of course, there are fakes, such as Li Yu.
In addition to this, there were a few people whose faces were covered in blood and tears, but they all showed expressions of excitement and joy.
It was no wonder that they were so happy. Although they had been tortured and almost lost their minds and went crazy, at that moment, they all felt the protection and blessing from their own true God.
Even if it is very slight and faint.
It is impossible to tell whether they were chosen by God or whether the images of their torture pleased God and so they were rewarded.
It does not matter!
Because no matter what the reason is, it cannot change the fact that they have now become God's chosen ones.
Until the next moment, they entered the range of the brilliant light and were sucked in and thrown into a certain floor of the tower.
Screams that were ten times more miserable than before immediately began to resound.
The "gaze of the gods" that had disappeared before suddenly reappeared silently, and the joy in the nothingness became even stronger.
