Chapter 2770: Chapter 1877: Explosive Finale (Playable, But... Plenty of Issues)

The ground exploded and cracked open.

Countless fragments shot out like bullets in all directions, hitting the barrier that Ann had cast. The students shrank back in fear, hiding behind the barrier and screaming intensely. For a moment, the scene was utterly chaotic. Yet, at that moment, a figure suddenly appeared from the crowd, came behind Ann, and simultaneously gripped a dagger tightly with the right hand, stabbing directly toward Ann’s back!

"Watch out—!"

At the same time, Hei Chuan Chi Yin charged from the side, colliding with the figure and pushing it aside. She then extended her right hand, and the chainsaw sword boomed as it tore through the air, striking the figure.

"Aaaaahhh!"

The person attacked by Hei Chuan Chi Yin was none other than Mary—or rather, a Demon disguised as Mary. With the chainsaw sword deeply embedded within it, the Demon let out a furious scream, then flashed a distance away from Hei Chuan Chi Yin. At this moment, it revealed its true form, similar to the Demon with a two-headed bird that Duanmu Huai had attacked before, except this one had only one head.

"What on earth is going on?"

Seeing Hei Chuan Chi Yin clad in black power armor and wielding a chainsaw sword against the terrifying Demon, the students felt as though their brains had shrunk. They stood there dazed, unsure of how to react.

"You are just seeking your own doom! Foolish mortals!!"

The Great Demon waved its magic wand and roared loudly, its gaze toward Hei Chuan Chi Yin filled with anger and fear. Then, it screamed, striking the wand against the ground forcefully; immediately, the students who were still puzzled looked blankly and turned toward Hei Chuan Chi Yin and Ann.

"Miss Ann, they’re all yours!"

"I know!"

Ann understood the current situation. She immediately withdrew the barrier and snapped her fingers. A luminous mist suddenly appeared, spinning and engulfing the students who had been thoroughly manipulated and charged at them. The next moment, they fell silently to the ground, unconscious.

Meanwhile, Hei Chuan Chi Yin was already swinging the chainsaw sword, fighting against the Great Demon in front of her.

At the same time, elsewhere... the real Duanmu Huai naturally faced the Cunning Deception directly.

"Hey, what’s going on? High on drugs?"

Looking at the blue Demon before him, Duanmu Huai laughed heartily. The reason he used "blue Demon" to describe it was not out of laziness; it seemed like the only appropriate term from what he saw.

General players describe the Cunning Deception as a blue-skinned face with XX (banned words). But the current form of the Cunning Deception, aside from being "blue," doesn’t fit any other descriptions.

The current Cunning Deception seemed just like a massive, writhing, non-formal blue Slime, its body twisting repeatedly between organic and inorganic substances. Various mouths and eyes emerged and disappeared, only to appear again. Yet, even so, these eyes were not human eyes, but varied different types.

Moreover, the current Cunning Deception lacked the demeanor of the Lord of Change. Looking at its rolling around, one would mistakenly think it had a stomach ache.

Perhaps that’s actually the case.

"—————————!!"

A streak of silver light suddenly emerged, cutting a massive opening in the belly of the Cunning Deception. The next moment, Duanmu Huai saw Mary flipping and leaping out from it, landing steadily on the ground.

"Mary?"

"Mr. Duanmu? I’m... well, it’s actually not that surprising."

Mary glanced at Duanmu Huai and then looked at the Cunning Deception behind her.

"But I hope you act quickly; at least now seems like an opportunity."

"Alright, though I’m curious about what’s going on, we can discuss it later."

Duanmu Huai was naturally unclear about what was happening with Mary, but it wasn’t important. Since the Cunning Deception had actively appeared before him, there was only one thing for him to do!

Duanmu tightly gripped the chainsaw sword in his hand, roared, and charged at the gelatinous form ahead!

"———————!!"

At this moment, the scream of the Cunning Deception reached a peak. It screamed, laughed, wailed, cried, roared, its voice continuously changing and trembling. Magical spells appeared out of nowhere and fired at Duanmu Huai. Normally, these spells could transform worlds and destroy suns, but this time, something seemed amiss. The fireballs that could melt alloy splattered on Duanmu Huai as bursts of water balloons; the lightning that could cut through warships transformed into a gentle breeze. There were even magical light bullets turning halfway into explosive arrow gun bullets hitting Duanmu Huai, emitting a rubber impact sound.

But none of this mattered to Duanmu Huai.

He is the God of Destruction; no matter how the Lord of Change varies a thousand ways, it must exist at its core. Once its existence is destroyed, naturally, no more changes can happen—change without a foundation cannot stand.

Black flames burned on his body, ruthlessly devouring and destroying everything attempting to attack Duanmu Huai. He charged forward to the Cunning Deception, and with a sword deeply stabbed into its writhing, ever-changing body.

This strike did not have any sensation, the feeling when Duanmu Huai stabbed into the Cunning Deception was no different from cutting into thin air, yet immediately after, the body of the Cunning Deception began to tremble, its flesh swirling like putty standing tall, constantly flowing between solid and liquid. It seemed to instinctively resist and erase this attack. However, the God of Destruction’s Power within Duanmu Huai penetrated ruthlessly, eradicating all factors attempting to twist and alter.

Duanmu Huai showed no reaction to this; he merely held the sharp blade in his hand like a cold butcher, silently and relentlessly piercing it inch by inch forward.

At this moment, Duanmu Huai focused all his energy entirely on the enemy before him, wishing to destroy it, obliterate it, to utterly ruin it!

And precisely because of this, Duanmu Huai did not notice the attack coming from behind.

Mary raised her hand.

The Moonlight Greatsword emerged from the tip of the Magic Wand and swung forcefully at Duanmu Huai—it was a sword capable of killing deities, so much so that even Duanmu Huai’s Power of Destruction could not completely repel such an attack.

In reality, Duanmu Huai indeed did not block; he just kept his gaze fixed forward, completely unaware of what was happening behind him.

But this does not mean others were the same.

"—————————!"

The roaring Soul Flood exploded the twisted body of the Cunning Deception, hitting Mary directly, and she vanished in an instant within the Soul Flood without even a scream. Almost simultaneously, the sword blade plunged by Duanmu Huai touched the sole, eternal—changing core of the Lord of Change.

"No—————!!!"

Flames surged.

Pitch-black flames soared like an erupting volcano, completely engulfing the gigantic blue form. A terrible scream emerged, then vanished into nothingness amidst the overwhelming explosion.

"Phew......"

Duanmu Huai let out a breath, put down the chainsaw sword, watching the flames burning before him gradually fade; Mary’s figure reappeared in front of him. At this moment, Mary also looked exhausted, appearing disheveled.

"Mr. Duanmu, did I make it in time?"

"Ah, you made it, thanks to your help."

"You should be thanking me."

At this moment, Noren appeared beside Mary, smiling and making a gesture.

"I knew the Evil God wouldn’t be so easily dealt with. Now it seems I was right."

"Indeed, just as Miss Nolen said."

Mary nodded; she defeated the will of the Lord of Change at that time, intending to escape, but Princess Noren, who had been lurking in her body, cautioned her to be careful—after all, the opponent was the Lord of Change, and even though it was chaotic, it didn’t mean its intent to eliminate them had vanished. Noren had thoughts about what it would do too, since the Lord of Change could transform infinitely, when it imprisoned Mary, it saw everything Mary did to fight, which meant it could completely disguise as a normal Mary to deceive others.

After all, the effect of the Golden Pupil was only effective on Mary herself, others didn’t know what the specific effects of the Golden Pupil were.

Thus, Noren suggested to Mary that once she sensed anything related to her, she should act immediately.

As it turned out, Noren’s suspicions were correct.

Hmm...... but this also meant...... this Princess truly wasn’t someone easy to handle.

"In any case, our mission is now complete."

Duanmu Huai glanced at Noren, then at Mary, and looked towards the world in front of him—now trembling and showing signs of collapse.

Moreover, everything in the world was changing; the students fallen on the ground, the surrounding trees, school building, street lamps, all began to gradually disintegrate. They transformed into dark green characters akin to data, disappearing into the air. Even the air itself seemed to be vanishing.

It wasn’t until then that Duanmu Huai understood what this place was; it wasn’t even a normal world, but a virtual one, a constructed data world—on reflection, he is the God of Destruction. Even if the system was powerful, it couldn’t completely erase him.

Yet if it were to erase his "player character" in this world, that would be another matter.

The Cunning Deception must have immediately taken Mary because of this, after all, Mary only needed one look to ascertain if the world was virtual or real, and then... playtime would be over?

But now, it’s all over.

"Next, let’s leave this world."
