Chapter 530 - 11.56 First Green Star - Punishment World: 'Hell' (22)

Lan She was reminiscing about his forgotten past when he suddenly felt the qi around the area move and gather to where An Yuan is. He silently watches as the qi enters the young man's body fully circulating the energy in his veins to his meridians to his dantian. Once An Yuan gathered enough qi in his core, he finally awakened his magic circuits but converted his qi to magic power. He is now able to use mana. 

"Not bad. Here use this. It's a magic bow. Pour your mana inside and the arrow will form according to your thoughts and control." said Lan She as he passed to him a green bow which Han Ya's Manager Tian had told him to give An Yuan when he opened his eyes.

An Yuan gladly accepted the weapon with a smile as he knew this was something Han Ya had prepared for him.

"Thank you for protecting me, Doctor." said An Yuan.

Lan She replies, "It's okay. We are currently working as a team after all. I will contact A'Mo voiceless. Prepare the shots and put out your attacks without hesitation. Those two would be able to react regardless anyway."

Observing the Cerberus in the distance, An Yuan noticed that the Area Boss is currently in a bad state. There are lots of small wounds on its body and bruises plus bumps as if he was beaten up half-dead intentionally.

What An Yuan didn't know is that? He had guessed that right correctly. Afraid of killing the Cerberus leading it to berserk, these two tortured the Boss with fists and kicks. They had long hidden their weapons in their inventory and rained some physical attacks on the Cerberus.

The Cerberus of course tried to fight back. But Chu Mo and Han Ya are both able to fly. The most the monster could do if they flew too high is to jump like a frog towards them. He couldn't even change his direction in the area making his attempts predictable and it's easy for the two to dodge him no matter how many times. Plus, these two demons were so ruthless. He would receive countless punches and kicks whenever he jumps.

After being beaten up black and blue by Chu Mo and Han Ya for half an hour, the stamina of these three-headed beasts is all used up. Not only does he want to be fatally harmed to activate his regeneration, his body even considered these bruises and scratches as superficial wounds. In short, it just looked bad but most of it was just skin trauma.

Chu Mo's fist was covered in the blood of the beast. He was enjoying treating such a huge target for a sandbag.

"Hahaha~ this is so enjoyable. I can pour out all my stress with such a large sandbag to beat up," said Chu Mo.

Beside him, the silent Han Ya couldn't agree more. He felt he had a good exercise and felt so relaxed all over. The two were about to begin another round of beating when they suddenly heard Lan She's voice in their heads.

{Player An is awake. Be careful of Magic Arrows and make sure to bait the Area Boss in place.}

Chu Mo grinned and replied, "Roger that, Honey~"

"I will kick him from behind. Keep him busy," said Han Ya as he blended himself with the shadows of the forest.

"Leave it to me. Hahaha!" said Chu mo and he once again bombarded Cerberus with some punches this time he increased his speed and punched him much more.

The Cerberus felt their heads ringing with all three heads being beaten up but Chu Mo mercilessly. It didn't take a while for their appearance to swell and be covered in bumps.

GRROOAR~

Cerberus' three heads screamed, "DAMN, YOU HUMANS!!! KILL ME IF YOU DARE! I WOULD MASSACRE YOU IF YOU DO SO!!!"

RRROOOOOAAAARRRR~

Chu Mo mockingly responded to the area boss, "Hahaha~ We already know of your special passive skill of Hyper Regeneration once you are fatally injured. If not for that, why do you think we would just beat up instead of butchering to pieces!"

Cerberus was startled and was stunned for a moment. He finally knew why these two damn humans despite their strength to kill would just use their hands and feet to beat him up. He thought they wanted to allow the other two to escape first and was buying time. Who would have thought they already knew about his hidden skill? Thinking about this the Cerberus felt fear for the first time and panicked.

Cerberus' Thoughts: 'They knew about my Special Passive Skill! Impossible!!! No one knew about it. Not even my comrades here in hell. Do they have a player that could see-through skills? Does that mean they knew about my weakness too!?'

Then Cerberus remembered that one player whom that Demon awakener had been protecting since the beginning. He thought that player was the weakest among the four as he never came over to him to fight.

But now he has a bad feeling, he feels as if the Ant he chose to ignore from the very start happens to be the one who is the most dangerous of all.

Cerberus looked around the forest ignoring Chu Mo who was beating him up looking for the two missing players whom he thought had run away. As expected, he spotted them in a mountain overseeing the place he is in. On the top of the mountain, Lan She in his Valkyrie form is spreading his mana to create a domain that would lock him in place, and standing beside him is An Yuan holding a Magic Bow of high grade in his hands looking at him with those glowing eyes as if seeing through everything in him.

The area boss couldn't help but shudder in terror. The pressure coming from those glowing eyes is something he had felt only once in his whole life. That was when he accidentally offended a God existence who once visited Hell. An overwhelming strength that could take away his life instantly.

RRRROOOOOAAAAARRRRR!!!

The thoughts of Cerberus: 'Run! Runaway! That human really knows his weakness. He will die if he stays in this place. He needs to leave!'

He ignored Chu Mo's heavy hits all over his body and head and tried to run away. Everyone noticed his attempts to run away but he was too late.

Chu Mo laughed, "Hahahaha~ too late to run, big guy!"

As soon as he said those words a black mist threw him off the land and lifted him while catching him off guard. The black mist had thrown him into the air and in a few seconds, he was afloat. A huge golden magic circle appears above him.

This is a domain created by a God of War Race, the Valkyries.

Lan She. "Sky Prison, Activate! Capture the Cerberus!"

Suddenly countless gold chains come out of the magic circle completely restraining Cerberus.

ROOAAARRR~

"Let me go! GRR~ UNHAND ME!!" Yelled the Cerberus as he struggles in the midst of the golden chains that restrain all his limbs including his neck.

Just below him, a black mist was waiting just in case the Boss escaped. Han Ya and Chu Mo flew towards the mountain and joined the other two in there.

Han Ya went down behind An Yuan. His cold fade melts under the haze of the professor. He wants to be like the ruthless demon from before.

Han Ya said, "Do it, A'Yuan. We will restrain him for you."

"Thank you. Even if he escapes I can kill him. I have an auto-lock on skills I've learned with the Magic Archery basic skill set." said An Yuan.

Under the eyes of everyone in the area, An Yuan pulled his green bow. Circulating his mana on the bow, An Yuan controlled his mana to recreate the image in his mind to the bow. Suddenly four arrows made of wind magic appeared on the bow. Targeting the Cerberus, An Yuan released the wind arrows.

The Wind Arrows as if it had a mind of its split to certain directions. Three moves hit the three moving hearts inside the body and the last arrow targets the hidden brain of the area boss. All four targets were destroyed at the same time. The huge body of the three-headed dog monster had imploded due to the shocks of wind effect on the target. Clearly, An Yuan's arrow is deadly, that is how ordinary it looks.

AAARGH~ H-HUMANS... YOU!! I...

BOOM!    The Cerberus had exploded to his death.

"Phew~ All the targets disappeared. I did it, Xiao Ya" said An Yuan with a face full of joy. He is delighted that now he had the strength to fight along the side of Han Ya who had been protecting him all this time.

Han Ya smiled as he congratulated his beloved. He pats his head gently while smiling.

"Not bad. That was amazing. Congratulations, A'Yuan." said Han Ya.

An Yuan said, "Xiao Ya, I can now fight with you!"

"Yes, you can support me from behind," said Han Ya.

Chu Mo helplessly spoke out to get the attention of the two who had unintentionally spread dog food in the crowd.

"Excuse me. Are you guys not going to check on your teammates? I want to know where my boss is?" said Chu Mo.

Bewildered, An Yuan asked, "Boss? Who is your boss, Brother Reaper?"

"Oh~ my boss is Player Abyss. Didn't he sign a contract with your team? He said his lover invited me and my honey to sign too." answered Chu Mo.

"...???..." (OwO) An Yuan's reaction.

Han Ya cleared his beloved's confusion and said, "It's Lou Yan. Abyss's name is Lou Yan. He is Sir Hei's husband."

" Boss~... Why didn't he bring me with him then~" complains Chu Mo?

Lan She said, "You should check where they are in your group platform. Their live stream channels can be watched by you guys"

"Oh~ that's right. I've tried it before when looking for Xiao Ya. Let me check on Sir Hei then." said An Yuan.

Han Ya said, "When I spoke to him before, he was still in the Hell of Ice. He must have left that layer already. He told us to go to the last layer and meet him there."

"Then... Let's check where they are for now..." said An Yuan.

Beside them, Chu Mo is looking uncomfortable and commented, "For some reason, I feel something bad..."

"Dear, watch your crow's mouth," said Lan She.

The four gather together in An Yuan's holographic screen. They were watching as the latter navigated the screen system and opened Hei Anjing's channel.

An Yuan happily said, "Found it! It's this one!"

Once he clicked on Hei Anjing's channel, they watched him walk around the dark layer after getting out of the elevator. They noticed that he had a complete set of stamps on the card.

Chu Mo said, "A complete set of stamps."

"How did he get it?" asked An Yuan.

Han Ya remembered the conversation he had with Hei Anjing from before. He knew someone had interfered in their call and that person had gotten beat up by Hei Anjing. Moreover, the other person might be a pervert as Hei Anjing proclaims.

"I have a guess. The last time I called him, I heard he was being a pervert. He must have taken it from that man. He called the person 'Perverted Fallen Angel' if I remember it right?" said Han Ya.

Chu Mo said, "A fallen angel? I do remember the one giving away stamps in each layer is a Fallen Angel named Fa Yue. Don't tell me he beat the guy up and stole his stamps?"

"If that Fallen Angel is indeed this game coordinator then... The stamps are real. Player Hei might have reached the last layer with it." explained Lan She.

An Yuan said, "For now, let's continue watching the streams."

All four of them continued watching the live streaming of Hei Anjing. They saw him freeze the whole layer and woke up Lou Yan who was chained alone in the place.

But the next scene after Lou Yan woke up rendered them speechless. They can only watch the following scenes with red faces. An Yuan had covered his tomato-colored face peeking only at the cracks of his fingers. Han Ya silently felt envious and stared at An Yuan beside him.

"Wuwu~"

Stares~

Cough!

Lan She faked a cough and averted his gaze politely. Chu Mo fearlessly commented,

"Wow~ my boss is as shameless as always! Isn't this live!? Hahaha~ in the end, he forgot about the camera and threatened the viewers. Hahaha~"

While the four are busy watching the streaming, Manager Gui floats in front of them and says,

[A message from Player Abyss sent by his Manager, Yue.

They said to take our time moving through the layers as his wife needs time to sleep. Don't hear too fast and he sent gold coins to our group account. He knew that Player Reaper and Player Lan were with us. Left 1 million gold coins, half to use to upgrade the contract and the other half for the group's own money for future expenses.]

An Yuan exited Hei Anjing's channel and instead went to look for a platform where they could upgrade the contract.

Ignoring the intense gaze of Han Ya beside him, An Yuan said, "For now let's upgrade the contract."

"Agreed," said Lan She.

Chu Mo sniggering, "By the way, are you going to ignore that one giving you thirsty-filled eyes. He looks like he wanted to eat you on the spot. Don't worry we can wait~"

"Please shut up and just sign the contract," said An Yuan.

Han Ya spoke, "A'Yuan, I want a kiss too."

Hearing his words An Yuan's face turned even redder and said,

"Y-Y-Y-You said you can w-w-wait!" exclaimed An Yuan.

His reaction was so cute that it made Han Ya laugh for a while. Because of this he couldn't help but tease him even more.

"Sure~ I can wait~"

"You're teasing me again! Xiao Ya!!!"
