"Shoggoth!"
Fang Mo turned his head and shouted towards the corridor.
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, the living, petroleum-like Shoggoth slowly slid over from a distance. It left a faint trail of sli on the wall before swiftly slipping into the guest room.
"Ah! It's an Asphalt Devil!"
Upon seeing this, Kobeni imdiately let out a piercing scream.
"Yikes!!!" Arai, who was nearby, was also terrified, crouching on the ground with his head in his arms: "What is this thing? Don't eat ... I promise I'll resign as soon as I get back!"
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
Seeing this, Shoggoth also started to make noise.
It didn't an anything by it; it was simply having fun and imitating the two people.
"So..."
Hayakawa Aki, clutching his stomach and trying to bear the pain, said: "Is this what you call a dog? Do you have so misunderstanding about 'dogs'?"
"No misunderstanding here."
Fang Mo reached out and touched Shoggoth's body: "Dogs like to eat at and bones, they love their owners very much, are obedient and cute, and can understand simple commands from their owners, right?"
"Of course not!"
This ti, the one who retorted was Denji: "I also like to eat at and bones, does that make a dog?"
"Hmm? Aren't you?"
Fang Mo first responded with a question, then pulled out a bone and handed it over: "Denji, suck, suck, suck..."
"Brother, this bone doesn't have any at on it at all." Denji first complained, but the next second, he helplessly reached out to take the bone: "There's no helping it, I'll have to go ho and boil it in water, make it into a soup to drink."
"Hey!"
Seeing this scene, Hayakawa Aki couldn't help but intervene: "Wait a minute, sothing's off about the shape of this bone."
"It looks like"
The expression on Hino's face beside him also changed slightly: "It looks like a human leg bone."
"Ah!?"
Denji was also startled upon hearing this: "No way, isn't that disgusting?"
"This is the bone of a small white... skeleton archer." Fang Mo saw that Denji didn't want it, so he simply threw it away, tossing the bone directly to Shoggoth beside him: "Even if you have never encountered real undead creatures... haven't you ever played the ga? Don't you know about skeleton soldiers?"
"Even if you say that, it's useless..."
Hayakawa Aki covered his stomach, clearly not believing Fang Mo's words.
"Ah yes, yes, yes, this is the stupid human leg bone." Fang Mo was also amused and said directly: "This is the leg bone of the person who was contracted with before. Everyone who contracts with ets a bad end. Are you satisfied with this explanation?"
"..."
After hearing this, Hayakawa Aki quieted down, seemingly accepting this explanation.
"That's why I hate your world. Everyone is like zombies, not even struggling when they hear they are going to die." Seeing this, Fang Mo sighed: "Seeing your listless expressions makes lose the mood to do anything... Maybe I should just go cut the moon."
"You can't cut the moon."
Hayakawa Aki spoke up at this point: "Our contract hasn't reached that stage yet... cough cough... hiss..."
Unfortunately, he had just begun speaking when he aggravated his wound, his face contorted with pain.
"Aki-kun, you better not talk." Hino saw this and advised him, then turned to look at Power: "Did the Blood Devil just help Aki-kun stop the bleeding properly?"
"I already stopped it."
Power said: "After all, if the little braided man dies, there will be no one to cook for ."
"I'm not seriously hurt."
Hayakawa Aki, hearing the conversation between the two, also explained: "I... have eaten his at slices. My body is much stronger than before. The cut from Kobeni probably didn't hit my vitals."
"at slices?"
Hino was montarily stunned after hearing this.
"Oh, it's just a thod to make him stronger."
Fang Mo briefly explained and then turned to look at Hayakawa Aki: "So, do you want to eat more? You are too weak right now; any ordinary kitchen knife can break through your defense. You should at least start with a thick skin, or get yourself a more formidable weapon or sothing."
"What's the cost?"
"I lost two things in Japan." Fang Mo said with a smile: "You'll help find them later."
"What did you lose?"
Hayakawa Aki asked, sowhat puzzled.
"It's nothing too important." Fang Mo casually scratched his head: "Just... lost two atomic bombs, that's all."
"Huh?"
Hayakawa Aki was also stunned after hearing this: "What's that? It sounds like bullets... Is it related to the Gun Devil?"
Yes, because the Nuclear Bomb Devil was devoured, the world also forgot the concept of nuclear bombs.
"It's not related to the Gun Devil."
Fang Mo shook his head.
"Alright then." Hearing this, Hayakawa Aki also nodded in agreent: "I consent, please make stronger."
"First, eat this."
Fang Mo said, tossing a golden apple directly to him.
Hayakawa Aki caught the golden apple, but he didn't imdiately start eating. Instead, he hesitantly stared at it for a long ti, and finally mustered the courage to close his eyes and take a bite.
With a crunch, the sweet and sour juice filled his entire mouth.
"!?"
Hayakawa Aki opened his eyes in astonishnt.
"Hey hey, what's with that expression?" Fang Mo teased with a laugh: "Don't tell you haven't had enough of eating shit? Don't worry, when I have ti, I'll make you a real Shit Sword, hmm, how about calling it the 'Shit Curry Stick'?"
"Shut your mouth!"
Upon hearing this, Hayakawa Aki suddenly roared, "Have I not had enough of eating shit already?!"
"What?"
Hearing this, Hino, who was beside him, covered her mouth in surprise: "Aki-kun, you actually went to such lengths for power..."
Not just Hino, but even Kobeni and Arai, after hearing Hayakawa Aki's words, looked at him in shock, and Arai even blurted out subconsciously, "As expected of a Senpai who will defeat the Gun Devil, you even went as far as doing such a thing..."
"I didn't do it!"
Hayakawa Aki roared again in despair.
"Hahaha!"
Fang Mo couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, walked over and patted Hayakawa Aki on the shoulder, and spoke earnestly, "Old Aki, I understand how you feel right now. It's like accidentally exposing your secret and then being publicly executed. It's a disgrace that leaves you with no dignity and makes you the subject of gossip for a lifeti..."
"You Devil!"
Hayakawa Aki gritted his teeth and glared at Fang Mo: "Was this also part of your plan?"
"You're the one who let it slip."
Fang Mo reminded him with a smile.
"It wasn't a slip of the tongue!" Hayakawa Aki first shouted, then quickly turned to explain to the others: "It's not true, I didn't do it, don't listen to his nonsense..."
However, everyone just silently watched him without interjecting.
"F*ck!"
Seeing this scene, Hayakawa Aki couldn't help but hit the floor hard with his fist.
It was clear that he couldn't explain this matter anymore, and continuing to talk would only make things worse. Realizing this, Hayakawa Aki felt both angry and anxious. He didn't expect that right after completing the deal with Fang Mo, the next second the price would co, and it was the social death he could least accept.
However, at this mont, Fang Mo suddenly patted him on the shoulder again and spoke earnestly.
"Actually, sotis people inevitably have so negative and pessimistic thoughts, like 'who can help destroy the Earth,' which shows you're too tired and need a good rest."
"When you've rested well, your thoughts will beco much more optimistic, and you'll want to destroy the Earth with your own hands."
"Sorry, I have no interest in doing that."
Hayakawa Aki imdiately retorted.
"My point is, you guys should take so ti to rest first."
Fang Mo spread his hands: "I still need to train this Devil for a while, but your current ntal state is not very good, especially Kobeni and Arai. Staying awake like this will only provide the Devil with the power of fear. It would be better to rest for a bit. Perhaps by the ti you wake up, this Devil will have killed itself."
"Eh?" Kobeni asked a bit timidly, "Really?"
"Why don't you see for yourself?"
Fang Mo pointed towards the door.
Kobeni didn't say anything, just carefully crawled over to peek, and happened to see the scene of a bedrock golem brutally killing the Devil.
The entire corridor was filled with the Devil's screams of agony.
"Are we finally... going to be saved?"
Seeing this, Kobeni finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Actually, this Devil was quite adept at manipulating people's hearts. It started by gradually creating an atmosphere of panic. The more people feared it, the stronger it beca, and then people beca even more afraid of it, forming a vicious cycle.
But the problem arose when Fang Mo took action.
This cycle was broken.
Under the relentless tornt of the bedrock golem, the Devil couldn't even utter harsh words anymore, just kept screaming in pain. Now, who would be afraid of such a thing?
Now that everyone was not so afraid anymore, Hino and Hayakawa Aki even took turns resting. However, Arai and Kobeni, still sowhat afraid of Shoggoth, didn't sleep much, just hid in a corner hugging their knees, waiting quietly. And the Devil, having lost fear as its nourishnt, indeed couldn't hold on much longer.
It begged for rcy while offering its heart, indicating it didn't want to be tortured anymore and asked for a quick end.
Seeing this, Fang Mo didn't hesitate and plunged the Ender Greatsword into its heart.
With the Devil's scream, all the rotten flesh around ford a vortex and was absorbed into the blade.
After absorbing the Devil, the Ender Greatsword in Fang Mo's hand also changed. The hilt turned into a bone-like texture, and the blade was entwined with a lot of intestine-like stuff, with a mouth in the middle. Overall, it looked extrely ugly.
"How disgusting, this thing."
After seeing the new look of the sword, Fang Mo also felt a bit repulsed by it.
Enduring the disgust, Fang Mo tested it and found that the weapon's ability was quite similar to that of the Devil.
First, it required finding a relatively enclosed space, then activating the ability to summon the Devil's stomach, and turning the space into a closed loop of sorts.
And since the Devil was dealt with,
The gravity direction on the eighth floor also returned to normal.
So, not long after, the group slowly ca out of the guest rooms.
"Has the Devil been dealt with?"
Hayakawa Aki observed the environnt of the corridor and asked after noticing the Devil's disappearance.
"Here it is." Fang Mo shook the sword in his hand, then smiled maliciously, "How about it, want to make another deal with ?"
