Inside Xixi City, dozens of flying Aberrations shrieked bizarrely as they swept across the sky. The assault team members looked up nervously at everything unfolding before their eyes. In the next second, more Aberrations appeared on the distant streets, charging toward them.
Gu Heng's palms were a little sweaty, but he felt more excitement than anything else. He finally had another chance!
"Trash." Gu Heng looked at the low-level Aberrations above his head. Grinning fiercely, he raised his weapon and fired a few shots. One Aberration instantly went limp, plummeting straight to the ground before being stabbed to death by several teammates.
"Gu Heng! Who told you to open fire without permission!" the captain shouted, clearly angered.
Gu Heng completely dropped the submissive and meek attitude he had maintained at headquarters. "What else? Just wait to die? If you're so scared, why don't you go back and cuddle your little wife to sleep?"
"You!"
"Captain, they're charging at us!"
The Aberrations before them were full of excitement upon seeing humans. It seemed that for them, eating human flesh was the ultimate satisfaction.
Watching them pounce, the assault captain finally gave the order to open fire.
Intense gunfire erupted instantly. The captain's heart bled with every shot; due to the Aberration invasions, human manufacturing was severely lagging behind. These bullets were specially made, and every shot fired was one less they had.
However, the current situation clearly left no room to worry about that. Yet, he found it somewhat strange. Although there were many Aberrations, they were all very weak—the kind an ordinary guardian squad could easily handle.
Relying on their weapons and individual skills, they still firmly held the upper hand.
"What bullshit reconnaissance team, saying Aberrations know tactics and teamwork. Even when they gather together, aren't they just fighting for themselves?" Gu Heng severed an Aberration's head with a single slash of his blade and ruthlessly crushed it underfoot.
Seeing a teammate carelessly get a leg torn off barehanded by an Aberration, he cursed him as useless and strode forward, swinging his blade.
Without any surprise, that Aberration was chopped into two pieces.
The battle grew increasingly heated. Although these Aberrations were weak, their numbers were substantial. He could hardly understand how Fang Zhiyi had managed to gather so many of them in one place.
But looking at the scattered remains on the ground, hope swelled in the hearts of the assault team members. They could win! Humanity could definitely defeat the Aberrations!
Gu Heng himself fought like a god of death, surrounded by the chopped-up remains of Aberrations.
"Come on! Bring as many as you have!" he shouted loudly, bursting into maniacal laughter. It was as if he could already see his bright future after this battle—he would become a man above others, ordering subordinates to risk their lives while he embraced beautiful women and drank...
As the last Aberration screamed and turned into a charred husk, the assault team looked at each other and couldn't help but cheer.
But right at that moment, a sudden mutation occurred.
The ground trembled, and terrifying screeches echoed from the sky.
The captain looked up in horror. It couldn't be, right?
Soon, massive swarms of Aberrations appeared before them again, even more numerous than before!
"This!" Even the excited Gu Heng was dumbfounded. Was that just the vanguard?
"Get ready!" the captain shouted. It wasn't that he didn't want to flee, but his wife and child were at headquarters. He knew very well that if he ran, his family would be executed.
The team members gritted their teeth and raised their guns again. Ammunition was running low, and some even reached for the blades at their waists.
"What is that in the very back?" someone suddenly asked.
Gu Heng narrowed his eyes and looked over. Behind the horde of Aberrations stood several quietly waiting human-like silhouettes!
"High-level Aberrations! How vicious, driving the low-level ones to lead the charge while they hide in the back to pick up the scraps!" Gu Heng gritted his teeth.
But just as he finished speaking, those silhouettes moved. They were incredibly fast, crisscrossing and using the surrounding architectural ruins to continuously propel themselves forward. Finally, they leaped high into the air. In just a single encounter, several low-level Aberrations screamed and exploded.
Immediately following, two Aberrations with massive wings glided swiftly across the sky overhead, and the Aberrations that had been flying around chaotically turned into black mist.
"Huh? What's going on?" A team member lowered his gun in astonishment.
"They're killing each other!"
"No, it's not killing each other; it's an absolute one-sided massacre!" someone's voice trembled.
Although the newly arrived high-level Aberrations were few in number, the oppressive aura they exuded was nothing like the low-level Aberrations from before!
Two figures appeared again at the end of the street. As they moved, the Aberrations that had been fighting Gu Heng and the others actually began to shiver. The two figures slowly lifted their legs, yet in an instant, they stepped right in front of this human resistance squad. Gu Heng stared at them with wide eyes. The next moment, the low-level Aberrations behind them completely disintegrated into ash.
"Hehehe, can we kill these people?" That Aberration with a bizarre smile shook its head and sized up Gu Heng.
Weeping Face rubbed its chin: "I don't know, the boss didn't say."
"Hehehe, let's kill them and see?"
"You bastards!" A team member, overwhelmed by the immense pressure from these two Aberrations, nervously raised his gun and fired a full magazine of bullets.
All the special bullets hit Smiley. Smiley bent over, and after a moment, suddenly let out that "hehehe" laugh again. As it laughed, the bullet heads fell to the ground one by one, making crisp clinking sounds.
"Interesting, hehehe, interesting."
"H-how can this be..." The team member's hands holding the gun were still trembling. In the next second, his gun was cleanly sliced into two halves and fell to the ground.
"Hey, why are you dawdling?" Another female voice echoed. The assault team members followed the sound, and with just one glance, their hearts turned to ice.
A female Aberration dressed in bright red sat on the shoulders of a burly Aberration. Her face was deathly pale, clearly not the complexion of a living person. Behind her followed dozens of high-level Aberrations of varying heights and builds, each radiating an incredibly terrifying pressure.
"Could it be... that those ones just now were their..." A team member suddenly realized something.
"That's right, those were just the prey we were hunting. We should thank you for blocking them. Although they were a bit weak, it would have been hard to find them if they managed to run away, hehehe." Smiley was very pleased.
"What... you, you were hunting..." The captain was stunned. Did this mean the enemies they had fought so hard to kill were nothing but someone else's hunted prey? But why would Aberrations hunt other Aberrations?
Looking at the Aberrations before him, the vice-captain of the assault team suddenly raised his special gun. Every one they could kill counted! He would kill that red-clothed Aberration first! To capture the bandits, first capture the leader!
But the very instant he raised his gun, his arm was cleanly severed from the shoulder. The blood didn't even spurt out until two seconds later. A few steps away, an extremely short Aberration hopped and landed on the ground, licking a pitch-black machete in its hand: "Brave, so brave."
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ... [The Eldest Princess's Diary] [When my soul was extracted, becoming the sole spectator outside my own shell] [At first, there was overwhelming fury, until I saw] [How he used my sword to effortlessly shatter my inescapable doom] [How he wielded my authority to eradicate fatal conspiracies I had never even detected] [Like a deity, he rescued me from the deep mire I was trapped in] [If not for those annoying vixens, he and I would be a match made in heaven] [I think I am ill, gravely ill] [My deity should belong to me alone] ... "Hypnosis? Oh, it succeeded, my dear Master." "Only this time, it's my turn to hypnotize you."
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
