Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

A layer of mist, visible only to him, slowly dispersed, permeating the sealed space.

Simultaneously, a faint purple ripple belonging to the Chaos Authority emanated from the True Self, spreading with the Deep Water Bite, affecting everyone in the arena.

The Cursed Dungeon’s attribute suppression was extremely dominant; even the authority of Wu Chang was still weakened tenfold.

Using the authority alone, the effect was quite limited, but combined with the Deep Water Bite, it was more than enough to handle the people here.

The match began, and Sean, who was considered Kent’s trump card, appeared last, while the tall and fiercely fast Peace was set to take the first appearance.

Peace’s opponent was a Samba, whose talent in the fighting domain was as outstanding as in football, and many star combatants in the mixed martial arts community were Sambas.

Now, they had brought their talent from above ground to the underground.

Unlike the daytime match, the Trading Night match had no referee and no round time.

The fighting rules were simple and brutal: win standing, lose lying down.

The True Self entered the ring, glanced once, and knew the opponent was not a match, not even as good as the Gray Wolf.

However, to deepen the influence of the Deep Water Bite and Chaos Authority, he didn’t continue with the strategy of a swift victory but rather prolonged the fight as much as possible.

The opponent was a Judo expert, so he countered with Judo, lifting the opponent high and then gently putting him down each time, fearing he might hurt him.

It wasn’t obvious at first, but after several times, the audience realized he was toying with the opponent.

Under normal circumstances, this one-sided fight would have been enjoyable for Kent, but today, for some reason, he just felt annoyed and didn’t enjoy it.

The current fight had show effects but was too dragging.

Just as Kent was about to instruct Sean to put up a good show later, he saw Sean sipping water continuously from a cup.

Kent’s heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked, ”Mr. Sean, are you feeling unwell?”

Wu Chang put down the Enhanced Energy Activation Potion he was holding and said with a smile, ”Nothing, just simply thirsty.”

「Item Name: Enhanced Energy Activation Potion」

「Item Type: Consumables」

「Artifact Level: C.」

「Item Description: Restores 100% Energy Value slowly within 60 seconds after use, this value will not exceed 50 at most.」

Before entering the dungeon, he acquired many consumables from Hou Jingchuan, among which were five bottles of Enhanced Energy Activation Potion.

During the event of the recent fight, he drank two bottles one after another and transformed all the recovered energy into the Deep Water Bite. By now, even the gunmen hiding in the roof beams were already tainted by the Deep Water Bite.

As the fight went on, the first to lose control was not the heated-up Samba in the arena, but the black fat man watching from the side.

He had never felt so humiliated from childhood to adulthood. He immediately called a timeout and then angrily demanded the Samba to get out.

As the Samba exited, a rune representing chaos and order appeared behind Wu Chang’s True Self.

The black fat man angrily approached the Samba and slapped him, shouting:

”You waste, did I raise you to bring me shame, you damn bastard? I’ll deal with you and your family...”

The black fat man’s curses sounded extremely jarring in the Samba’s ears, who was already tormented into a state of red heat in the ring. At this moment, hearing his family threatened,

something called reason quietly snapped in his mind.

The next moment, in the astonished eyes of everyone around, the Samba punched the black fat man’s throat, stopping the words he was about to say.

Then, he drew the golden handgun from the black fat man’s waist and fired several shots at him.

Seeing the black fat man’s dead body falling to the ground, the atmosphere in the arena plunged into a deathly silence.

Thud.

A sound similar to a heartbeat echoed in everyone’s ears.

Thud thud.

The sound became frequent, causing their eyes to redden slightly, their breathing to become heavy, and making them look around vigilantly.

Thud thud thud.

The Samba raised his gun, aiming at the black fat man’s deputy.

Bang!

A gunshot rang out.

After a gunshot, followed a series of rapid gunfire.

The Samba shot at the black fat man’s group, they retaliated, stray bullets flew towards White’s group, who immediately returned fire.

The gunfire was as lively as firecrackers during New Year’s.

While the fight raged outside, Wu Chang’s body and True Self hid behind cover, waving at Kent.

”Boss Kent, come over here, we’ll protect you.”

Kent crouched and dashed over with three gunmen surrounding the two.

Kent, truly the leader, stayed sober amidst the crowd affected by the Chaos Authority, though only outwardly so.

But it was limited to consciousness; his mental state was not stable.

He changed from his usual gentle demeanor, his face full of anxiety, spewing dozens of F**Ks like a machine gun.

”Did this bunch of bastards get high? How dare they draw guns on my turf? And that bastard White, what the hell is he doing joining the chaos!”

”What the hell is going on here!”

The people around Kent kept silent, unable to give an answer.

The gunfight lasted about ten minutes, and as the gunfire gradually subsided, the fight seemed to reach its end.

One gunman quietly peeked out, surveyed around, then turned back and said:

”Boss, Mr. White and his men won, there’s no danger outside.”

Just as Kent breathed a sigh of relief, ready to get up and leave, he suddenly saw Sean fiddling with a button, saying:

”Now that the outside danger is gone, it’s time for us to bring a little danger to Boss Kent.”

Kent shivered, feeling a deadly crisis locking onto him.

”Sean, you...”

Before Kent could finish, Wu Chang activated his Mind Resonance ability.

Although Kent had a strong will, it wasn’t enough to resist the spiritual shock emitted by the Mind Resonance. Wu Chang could feel Kent’s Will Barrier shatter, but the following development made him frown.

「Target’s self-awareness is too strong, unable to fully control, spiritual control converted into spiritual attack.」

Kent felt like a sharp blade was thrust into his brain, stirring inside his head, the soul-crushing pain overwhelming him, causing him to convulse and kneel on the ground.

The three gunmen beside Kent drew their guns to aim at Wu Chang, but before they could raise their hands, they lost control of their bodies, standing still like statues.

Having absorbed the Deep Water Bite at such close range for so long, the toxin had already seeped into their bones, and now with the toxin acting, they had no chance to struggle.

Wu Chang drew a handgun from one gunman, and under his grimacing and unwilling gaze, handed the gun to the True Self.

The True Self held the gun in front of Kent, speaking in a tone of regret:

”It’s a pity, I wanted you to live a little longer, but you didn’t cooperate.”

The True Self turned on the phone camera, switched to the front camera, aligning it on him and Kent.

After selecting a few angles, he pressed the gun against Kent’s head and said:

”Look at the camera, smile, come on, say cheese~”

Bang!

A blood-colored will slowly dissipated before Wu Chang’s eyes.

[Blast Kent’s head, I want him to see his scattered brains!]
