The Boss Behind The Game

Glancing at the mountain peak that pierced through the sea of clouds, Gu Yu felt helpless.

He felt exhausted at the thought of climbing it again.

Although he had just spectated the battle between the Demonic God and Hiderigami, his body was still affected and his Attributes Menu showed that he was in a weak state.

Just as Gu Yu sighed and got ready to climb, a cloud of black vapor floated down from the top of the mountain, wrapping him in it, and the next thing he felt was weightlessness.

When the black vapor disappeared, Gu Yu realized that he had reached the top of the mountain, and a pair of evil-looking eyes were staring at him.

"Uhh… Demonic God, I desire power!" Gu Yu said frustratingly.

The Demonic God did not reply to him, but the black vapor suddenly became thicker and then lurched toward Gu Yu.

As Gu Yu felt unsteady, the picture of a bloody sea appeared in front of him and at the center of the bloody sea, a purple seed, nurtured by the bloody sea, shone while being shrouded in dense purple mist.

A bunch of data also came into view at this moment.

[The Demonic God's Apostles]:

Class description: After completing the Hidden Quest, you will be officially recognized by the Demonic God and be given the seed crystal from the Demonic God's power to master the primary Blood Power. You will then obtain a special energy bar known as Blood Qi.

[Blood Qi Level 1]: After exhaustion, the recovering rate is 1% per minute. Consume Blood Qi for faster recovery.

Class ability: The Demonic God's Apostles, Evil Body, Flame of Blood, Sucking of Blood, Evil Eye Stare.

[Evil God's Apostles]: The inheritance granted by the Demonic God is blessed by the Gods, and health will be restored 1 point per second.

[Evil body - Beginner's level]: When this ability is initiated, 30% of Blood Qi is consumed, an increase of 150% for all attributes lasting for 30 minutes, and derivative abilities can be released.

[Flame of Blood]: With the apostle as the center, Naraka flames are summoned to burn in a large range. The damage diameter is 20 meters. This ability can only be used in the state of Evil Body, exhausting 30% of the Power of Blood Qi.

[Sucking of Blood]: Any blood within the range of 10-30 meters from the apostle can be absorbed into the body through manipulation after this ability is initiated, so as to recover both Blood Qi and health. This ability must be exerted in the state of Evil Body, exhausting 10-50% of the Power of Blood Qi.

[Evil eye stare]: When the Evil Eye Stare is initiated, all the targets that made eye contact with you will be eroded by negative emotions, and there is a chance that disorder, weakness and other negative states will take place. This ability must be used in the state of Evil Body, which exhausts 40% of the Power of Blood Qi.

Recommendation of class development: There is no specific direction for your class development, seek advice from the Demonic God!

While receiving the power from the Demonic God, the artifacts kept reorganizing the body of Gu Yu. Fortunately, this reorganization exhausted only the inheritance power provided by the Demonic God, while Bei Li only needed to make a body vessel. Even so, it cost Lu Wu 1,000 soul coins.

However the Rune Master template used for transforming Gu Yu was directly stripped away by the artifact, and Lu Wu was not planning to return the material used to mold the body of a Rune Master, so he kept it.

After reorganizing, there was a huge change in Gu Yu's body.

His muscles became bigger like a dragon's, and his body became taller than before. On his back was a tattoo of a pair of flaming evil eyes.

Clenching his fist, he felt the power flowing through his body, which made Gu Yu a little too excited.

"Do you want to become stronger?" the evil eyes stared at Gu Yu, with a tempting voice echoing in his mind.

Gu Yu was shocked, and he thought that he would need to consult with the Demonic God regarding his class development which was shown on the Class Menu. So, he quickly opened his mouth and spoke, "Demonic God, how can I become stronger and more powerful?"

"Do you know that I gave you a Blood Seed? If you can cultivate it successfully, then you will master the Law of Bloody Darkness, which is one of the Laws of the Underworld. Do you understand what this will mean?"

Gu Yu was confused, "What does that mean?"

"If you are able to master any law among the Laws of the World, you will be qualified to be a god. As long as the Great Emperor grants you amnesty, you can become a new god!"

When he heard this, Gu Yu suddenly recalled his memories of the battle between the Demonic God and Hiderigami which almost destroyed the world, to which he became agitated and shouted, "Just name the price!"

The Demonic God showed a questioning look.

Realizing that he had said something wrong, Gu Yu smiled embarrassingly, "Demonic God, you are my boss now, teach me how to be strong!"

"The difficulty of cultivating the Blood Seed is far beyond your imagination. Maybe it will take you hundreds of thousands of years to cultivate and still fail to come up with the Seed of Blood Method, but I can help you to speed up!" the voice of the Demonic God reappeared in Gu Yu's mind.

Gu Yu realized something and quickly asked, "Boss, I will try my best to do anything that you wish!"

"I have sensed the presence of Hiderigami, he is here! Find him and kill him!"

As soon as the Demonic God finished speaking, a picture appeared in the mind of Gu Yu.

A magnificent city stood on the earth, and above this city was a coffin floating in the sky. The city, however, was empty like a ghost city.

[Hatred That Cannot Be Annihilated (Class Upgrade Quest)]:

Quest description: Go to Evil Nightmare City, kill the weak Hiderigami and complete the instruction given by the Demonic God. There is no time limit for this quest.

Quest reward: Receive a prize from the Demonic God (Class development)

Gu Yu was stunned for a few seconds after he saw his new quest, and then he nodded solemnly toward the evil eyes to indicate his acceptance of the quest.

Although this quest was very difficult, at least there was no time limit, as long as he could continue to level up and grow stronger. Besides, his guild was continuously expanding, so he believed that he had the opportunity of completing the quest.

"Aren't you afraid?" apparently his attitude made the Demonic God feel surprised.

"What is there to be afraid of, I am not even afraid of death!" Gu Yu chuckled.

"I admire you more and more, I find that you have no fear from the beginning to the end, even when I controlled your body previously, you… are good!" the voice of the Demonic God reappeared.

Gu Yu giggled, "Demonic God, is there anything else that you would like to request? If there is none, could you send me down the mountain?"

The Demonic God did not reply this time, but the black vapor resurfaced and surrounded Gu Yu.

When the black vapor was gone once again, Gu Yu realized that he had arrived at the wooden house.

At this moment, Gu Yu was in a good mood, he did not expect that he could get the inheritance so easily. Nothing could make him happier than this. Sure enough, one would need to roam around in this game to have the chance to find any hidden quest.

Taking a few steps forward, Gu Yu reached out his hand to knock on the wooden door, "Old man, I have come to pick up the dog, please open the door!"

After a while, the door creaked and opened, the old man walked out holding a red-faced Sun Qi.

"Take this silly dog away!"

After he had finished speaking, the old man tossed the drunken Sun Qi out.

"I don't want to go, I still want to drink, I will not go if I don't win today!" Sun Qi stumbled as he tried to stand up, walked forward a few steps and fell on the ground again.

"Let's go, dog!" Gu Yu helplessly stepped forward and picked Sun Qi up.

"I… I am not going to leave, fill it up, we will fight until dawn!"

Sun Qi pushed Gu Yu's hand away and fell to the ground. Then he stood up unsteadily and put his left hand on his waist. He pointed at the old man with his right hand and said with a red face, "You… you don't look down on me… I definitely can… drink!"

"It's kind of fun to see your dog get drunk!" the old man leaned on the door frame and drank the fruit wine from his cup as he chuckled.

"Silly dog, stop it!" Gu Yu who was utterly speechless at the moment tugged at one of the dog legs and carried Sun Qi on his shoulder.

After saying goodbye to the old man, Gu Yu began to descend the mountain while carrying Sun Qi.

Throughout the journey, Sun Qi talked nonsense and fidgeted the whole way. This annoyed Gu Yu so much that he almost could not resist smashing him to the ground and demonstrate his dog-punching skills.
