nThe 100-odd soldiers will not come along? They only set up traps for me to help you catch the real culprit?

nWei Huo walked over and took out a bandage. He then told the General, “Don’t worry, General. It’s just an arrow wound, isn’t it? I can treat this kind of small injury easily!”

nThe General was speechless.

nWei Huo took the bandage and wrapped the General’s wound up. You still want to trick me?

nWei Huo knew that this was a six-person quest. It would be too difficult to complete it alone. If he died during the quest, he might have been tricked by the General.

nSeeing that his calf had been cured, the General could only limp toward the Wang Residence. When the Wang Family’s gate opened, pieces of tile appeared one after another. The patterns on each tile were different, and one could spot some of them if one looked closely.

nWei Huo warned the General as he walked toward him. “General, be careful. There might be traps here!”

nHowever, the General ignored his warning and stepped on a tile. A moment later, a dark arrow shot out and hit the General’s left arm.

nWei Huo was speechless.

nOnly you would step on such a low-level trap. The Wang Family could not be bothered to set up any complicated traps.

nThe General turned around and looked at Wei Huo. “Wei Huo! My shoulder is injured. If I go with you, I’ll drag you down. I’ll leave the mastermind to you!”

nWei Huo walked forward with a bandage and quickly bandaged the General’s wound. The quality of the bandage was excellent. After three minutes, the Epic-ranked General’s wound was healed.

nThe General was speechless.

nHe moved forward again and stepped on all the traps he encountered. One moment he was injured by a dark arrow, another by a raging fire, and the next by lightning. All the attacks hit the General.

nBy the time they crossed that entire piece of land, the General was covered in arrows. The area was charred, red, and swollen. The armor on his body was also tattered.

nWei Huo was speechless.

nIsn’t this too much? Are you asking me to clear the Instance Dungeon alone?

nThe General was covered in arrows and was emitting a burnt smell. There were bruises all over his body. He clasped his fists in Wei Huo’s direction with difficulty and said, “Wei Huo, I’m seriously injured now. I’ll only drag you down if I go in. Please catch the mastermind of the Wang Family!”

nWei Huo was speechless.

nWhat else could Wei Huo say? He could only walk into the Wang Residence alone.

nThe construction style of the Wang Family’s residence was similar to that of ancient Chinese buildings. The floor was paved with stone, and the buildings were made of soil and wood. The top two stories were empty, and so were the hallways.

nThe hallways were very old. Occasionally, one or two ragged red lanterns could be seen along them. Some of the doors even had couplets attached to them. From time to time, one or two Pixiu statues could be seen. However, the Pixius’ faces were severely worn out.

nFrom time to time, a breeze would blow over, causing one to feel the coolness of late autumn. There were also wooden doors that seemed to have been out of order for a long time and creaked against the wind.

nThe atmosphere became weirder. Wei Huo was very careful as he kept moving forward. Suddenly, weird background music started playing.

nWei Huo picked up Tiamat and attacked in the direction of the sound. Although Tiamat was powerful, he met his match this time.

nIt was a loudspeaker that was protected by rules. Not a single spark was produced when Tiamat cut it.

nWei Huo’s attack could not hurt the loudspeaker at all. The loudspeaker continued releasing its weird background music in an attempt to create a horrifying atmosphere. However…

n“This is actually a funny game, isn’t it?” Wei Huo looked at the loudspeaker. “The loudspeaker has dispersed the horrifying atmosphere.”

nThe atmosphere was quite good initially. You ruined the whole atmosphere by using a loudspeaker!

nWei Huo realized that it was a funny game!

nHe then continued his journey. This time, he heard another movement. A chewing, tearing sound was coming from the door.

nWei Huo walked over and opened the wooden door.

nBehind the wooden door was a two-meter-tall humanoid monster. It was bloated and at that moment, the monster was chewing on the corpse of an unrecognizable adult God.

nWei Huo closed the door slowly. “Sorry for disturbing you!”

nHowever, the monster was unwilling to give up. It charged through the door and smashed it into pieces. It roared as it attempted to bite Wei Huo to death. However, Wei Huo slashed down with Tiamat and the monster was cut in half.

nWei Huo checked the creature’s name. It was called God Eater. It was a little weaker than the God Slayer. It was also bulky and it had fangs in its mouth. It looked like a Zombie Boss in a biological crisis.

nIt seemed like Wei Huo had stirred up too much trouble. Many monsters rushed out from various hallways. However, Wei Huo was not lacking group attacks at the moment. He lifted up Tiamat and used his New Moon Skill. A circular Qi Blade spread out. The Qi Blade looked gentle but sharp. It split the surrounding God Eaters in half in an instant.

nThe God Eaters were Rare-ranked. A huge crowd would appear every five minutes, so it was impossible to kill them all.

nAs Wei Huo continued killing them, he soon saw an altar.

nAnother altar…

nThis altar was not too big and it was square-shaped. There were statues on its four corners, and in the middle was a bronze mirror.

nWei Huo walked onto the altar. The surrounding God Eaters dared not move forward as if they were afraid of the altar.

nThis altar was definitely not simple.

nWei Huo studied the altar carefully. He first observed it, but he could not find anything. Wei Huo then started knocking and pushing. He tried to find its key point through random knocks.

nAs expected, Wei Huo found the key.

nThe four statues at the four corners of the altar could actually move.

nWei Huo thought about it for a while and turned the heads of the four statues toward the bronze mirror in the center. At that moment, the bronze mirror emitted a dazzling white light.

nA moment later, a white-haired old man walked out of the bronze mirror.

n“Who are you, God? Why did you wake me up?”

nWei Huo was confused.

nYou want to ask who I am?

nThere’s something wrong with the Divine Realm. You call yourself a God, but you’re actually a human’s spirit, aren’t you?

nWei Huo said, “The head of the Wang Family attempted to use the God Annihilating Staff to attract the Divine Realm’s God Annihilating Beasts. I’m here to capture the head of the Wang Family.”

nThe mysterious old man frowned. “The Wang Family? Are you referring to the descendants of the Wang Family? They actually dared to do such an unethical thing? They’re simply… Divine Sons.”

nWei Huo was speechless.

nYour tongue slipped!

nWei Huo asked, “May I ask who you are?”

nThe mysterious old man replied, “I’m one of the first Gods. Before I became a God, I was a human. A few hundred thousand years ago, the Loulan Ancient Kingdom ascended into the Divine Realm as a whole nation and they became the first Gods.”

n“A few hundred thousand years ago?” Wei Huo was confused.

nWere humans hundreds of thousands of years ago still from Beijing?

nThe mysterious old man rubbed his eyes. “Haven’t you heard that one day in the sky is 0.33 years on the ground?”

nWei Huo was speechless.

nHe had never heard of this before.
