{The first stage of punishment, ‘Hell’, is now officially closed. To the Players who had gathered in the 18th layer… CONGRATULATIONS~ you had survived the Hell Theme Game.

The rewards would be given away to every surviving player of this phase. For now, we have officially closed Phase 1 of the Survival Trial Games.}

Suddenly a huge holographic screen appeared before them. Before the holographic screen are the Eighteen Layers of hell. Within the screens, players who were still trying to survive are being played on the live recordings.

{Before you are the live scene of each layer in Hell. Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! There are still lots of players still remaining in the layers. Unfortunately, the time limit for this game had been used up. These players had all failed this stage. That was rather unfortunate.

My dear NPC abyssal monsters and beasts.

All restrictions are now lifted.

Get ready for the clean-up!

Have a feast~~

Kekekeke…}

On the holographic screen, the players who had completed the first phase could only watch the hellish scene before them. The monsters and beasts who live in each layer have shown themselves regardless of their levels. Whether they were mob monsters or boss-level NPC they had all come out.

They all started hunting the remaining human players on the field. On the screen, the players could only watch as the other players who were still in the layers were eaten alive. Those monsters and beasts of all sizes and levels were ruthless as they all mercilessly massacred all humans on their territories.

They happily treated those human failures as fat meat and delicacy. In the end, the scenes on the holographic screen had turned gore and cruel. For newbie players like An Yuan, this kind of hell on earth scene is something he is not used to. He is after all just an ordinary human being.

Ugh~ pukes~

As expected, An Yuan’s face turned bloodless. His whole body was trembling as he could feel his stomach churning. The sour taste lingering on his throat was as if blocked and no matter how much he vomits it still feels that it was there.

Han Ya pats his back as he comforts him whispering gentle words like it’s alright. I’m here. You will be okay. Don’t look. Close your eyes. I will protect you.

An Yuan was traumatized by the scene but the rest of his teammates treated the scene so calmly that the other players looked at them strangely. Moreover, Hei Anjing was still smiling as he flirted with his husband, not caring about the deaths of the other players.

Unlike the five of them, the other human players didn’t overreact like An Yuan but in the end, those kinds of death scenes terrified them to the core. If they were weak enough, that ending would become theirs in the end. To see someone of the same race end up dying in such a gruesome way made their mood bad.

So seeing someone like Hei Anjing being so carefree the others couldn’t bear to ignore it. Especially ladies who were impatient and survive in this place with no protection from the opposite sex. They always felt one should be strong enough to protect the other so seeing Hei Anjing clings to Ye Xiajie and acts so proud and insensitive made them hate him so much.

A female player who was jealous of Hei Anjing’s standing spoke out in anger.

“Mr. Abyss, I have a suggestion to make. Baggage shouldn’t be brought out on special occasions, especially one that pertains to the life and death of your well-being. Those kinds of people would cause your death. It is better to throw them when you get bored of them.” said a female player and she was acting quite proud of it while winking at Ye Xiajie obviously flirting with him.

Chu Mo’s eyebrows twitched at such a scene. Lan She gave the lady a cold glance while Han Ya and An Yuan were looking at her like a dead man. Ye Xiajie on the other hand was ignoring him as usual until he heard her saying he must throw away his love for being useless and his eyes turned sharp and dangerous.

The girl was so proud of her words while sneaking a peek at Ye Xiajie. No matter what they are, his husband’s appearance would always be top-quality, and no matter what gender the opposite possesses they would end up like him and desire him one after another.

Meanwhile, the other players thought that Hei Anjing would lose his temper but instead, they saw his turns even sweeter than honey. Adding up his Celestial beauty those who see his current appearance couldn’t help but blushed deep inside their hearts they agreed with Ye Xiajie’s actions of spoiling the beauty. With this kind of heavenly face, it is no wonder that Ye Xiajie would pamper the other.

But only those who knew Hei Anjing too well would react differently when he smiled this way. If he only has a mischievous smile then the possibility of losing your life is only 50% but if he is smiling as if sugar would come out of his lips then… Just go ahead and prepare your coffin, today would definitely be your death anniversary for the next year.

Han Ya felt an extremely dangerous aura coming from Hei Anjing. It is a hundred times more alarming than meeting Ye Xiajie for the second time. Be couldn’t help but hug his beloved tighter within his embrace. Chu Mo had long started leaning behind his lover. Between him and his Yun Ming, his affinity with Lord Hei is even lower than his honey.

Lan She acted naturally whenever Lord Hei is angry not getting involved would be better. Ye Xiajie on the other hand was as stiff as a rock. He didn’t dare to move afraid that he would be the one to receive his wife’s temper. If it ended up falling on him, he would definitely get thrown out of the bedroom which is a nightmare for him.

Uncle Sid, Sol, and Lune who were hiding in the corner felt that the room temperature had dropped dramatically. They were glancing at the sweetly smiling Hei Anjing in the distance and felt shivering under those eyes which turned from deep blue to silver.

Hei Anjing spoke, “Old Hag, I also have something to say. Don’t you know why some people just ended up dead in the movies?”

“Slut! Who the hell are you calling old hag?! A faggot who sell his butt had nothing this lady had to say too.”

Under everyone’s gaze, Hei Anjing awakened his Ice Elf bloodline. A tiny bit of snowflake appeared above his palm calmly playing with it while turning deaf ears to the words the lady had just screamed for.

“Because those people like to seek death that they ended up going off the stage sooner than the others,” said Hei Anjing as he blew the snowflake on his hand towards the loudmouth female player from before.

Those who moved by instinct had moved away and as far as they could from the harmless-looking and pretty snowflakes. Those who are smart had calculated the distance well and moved away. In a short duration of a few seconds, the female player and her team were left behind on her table desolated.

The female player was still acting proud and said, “What could a tiny snowflake do?”

She ignored the snowflake coming over them and her teammates also did the same. When the snowflake landed on their table they couldn’t even utter another sound before their small group started turning to ice. 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝑙．𝑐𝘰𝘮

AAAHHHHH!!!

“What the hell is this!!?”

“Ice!? No way. Melt it. Melt it right away.”

There are those who tried to gnaw the ice with fire spells and props but no matter what they did the ice was immovable and cannot be melted. It keeps crawling and spreading on their bodies. Slowly spreading as they watch themselves turn into an ice statue.

“Ah~ No. No. No. I’m sorry. I’m wrong!!!”

“Please spare us. Don’t kill us please!”

“It was her. It was all on her. She was at fault, we are not involved!”

“What did you say!? We are a team and you are kicking me away! Aren’t you the one who told me those things!!!”

“Shut up, you bitch!”

“You’re the bitch!”

These little groups of players started fighting one another as their bodies kept turning into ice. Hei Anjing’s former sweet smile was replaced with a coldness akin to that of ice. Whenever he doesn’t have any expression on his face, he would look like an Ice God that cannot be moved by anything. Like a proud and elegant mountain ice peak, beautiful yet unattainable.

It didn’t take a while for those players to turn into a set of ice statues. Hei Anjing only waves his hands once for the ice statues to break and that female player together with her small group had turned into a white reddish mist and nothing more was left behind.

Hei Anjing spoke, “Quiet at last~ daring to covet my husband in front of my face, this will be your ending.”

Everyone in the area, regardless if they had plans to seduce Player Abyss or not, had shivered under Hei Anjing’s voice. Who would have expected that such a thin young man who had a flawless face would be more horrifying and cruel than those monsters on the video?

At least the monsters would leave them to run away as a chance to live but angering this fairy-like man, they would only be dead.

PING. PONG. PING

{Clean-up is complete. Now the rewards are to be released. Go check it before you ride the Hell Train that will bring you to your next destination.

As for Player Hei, the players you have killed would be considered your kill points. All their props and gold coins would be transferred to your account~

Good Job Player Hei for completing a hidden mission~

Special reward: 1 million gold coins

/ 1 High-grade skill book

/ 1 Legendary Tier weapon

Please go ahead and choose one.}

Hei Anjing chose without thinking and said, “High-grade Skill Book. I want to light element one for healing purposes.”

{Hahaha~ of course. As you wish~}

Suddenly one of the demon butlers appeared near their table holding a tray. There’s a high-grade skill book called Holy Rain. An AOE healing skill used by Paladins or Angels.

The butler lowered his back and placed the tray in front of Hei Anjing.

The demon butler says, “Here’s your reward, Sir Hei.”

Hei Anjing picked up the book and threw it toward Lan She. His attitude is not much different from throwing garbage that doesn’t interest him.

Manager Tian shouted, Ah~ be careful. That’s a High-grade Skill. It was so rare that only the ranked angel of Seraphim could use it.

You can’t use it? Tian? asked Manager Gui.

No. I’m only a Dominion Class Angel. Middle rank. replied Manager Tian.

“Oh really~”

Hei Anjing doesn’t care at all and even pulled another skill book from his storage. It was something he bought when he was bored and threw it at Lan She as well.

“Whatever. We don’t have a healing class but we have an angel in the group. You can be our healer as well. Learn those books now before we go to the Labyrinth.” said Hei Anjing.

On the sideline, Manager Tian was about to faint when he saw what kind of Skill book Hei Anjing threw to Lan She for the Second time. This time it was a middle-grade skill book but the rarest within the middle grade. Light Skill book called Tree of Life. It was a skill to summon a Peepal tree and anyone under it would be healed. If one ate a leaf it would regenerate lost limbs or cure-all poison.

Tree of Life!!! For real! Isn’t this a lost spell!? How can this be here!? screamed Manager Tian.

Hei Anjing answered, “Bought it in the Abyssal Store. Oh yeah, it cost at least 10 million gold coins. I was lucky it was there when I’ve looked through the store when I’m bored~”

Manager Gui was stunned himself.

Though I know that the Abyssal store would sometimes bring out a few high-grade skills and props from time to time. This is the first time I’ve met one who can afford those things.

Hei Anjing said, “My husband gave me all of his money to save. I’m the wife so it’s my job to handle the money in the family. Right, My love?”

“Um. All yours,” said Ye Xiajie as he kissed and hugged his wife in his embrace totally satisfied.

Chu Mo mumbled, “Woa~ even here he is still a henpecked husband.”

“So all money is supposed to be handled by the wife…” said Han Ya as his eyes hovered on An Yuan’s figure.

An Yuan blushed as he heard Han Ya’s words just now.

“What are you looking at? Don’t tell me you are going to give me all of your money as well!?”

Han Ya nods his head.

Seeing this An Yuan’s face turned, even more, redder and said, “Who the hell is your wife?!”

Lan She commented, “But I think it is better for An to hold Han’s money. That is a man who had already given away 100,000 gold coins to his enemy. He would only waste more if you don’t stop him.”

An Yuan’s attitude instantly changed when he heard this and reached out his hands toward Han Ya with a serious expression on his face.

“Give it all now,” said An Yuan.

Han Ya was startled at first before giving all his money to An Yuan to secure. He then laughs seeing how his beloved looks like a little wife that was seriously securing their family’s budget.

“So cute, A’Yuan~. Hahaha~” said Han Ya while hugging his beloved.

An Yuan said, “Don’t hug me so tight I can’t count the coins properly!”

Afterward, the list of rewards their group had accumulated had appeared before their eyes. All are listed in front of the small holographic screen for each player.
