Chapter 627: Wine, Women, Wealth, and Wrath; the Dreamland Realm
Sun Zhen looked at the ring on his hand. He, of course, knew what this thing was made of. The blood-red ring was not made of metal but rather seemed to be a fluid, occasionally flowing over features like eyes or a nose, which made him feel somewhat nauseous.
Since it already had two faces folded onto it, it looked rather terrifying.
When he opened the door, he did not see the originally tidy compartment but rather an old, weathered one.
"Besides envy, there's pride, gluttony, sloth, wrath, and greed. Isn't one missing?" He remembered Qin Muye saying there were seven, but he only counted six.
But it didn't matter; he would deal with it first.
"There's one in each compartment. Mine is envy, and he said the next one is gluttony."
With that, he walked to the next compartment. As soon as he pushed the door open, he smelled a mix of blood and various peculiar scents. A bulky giant was continuously gnawing on everything in the compartment.
Here, the entire compartment had changed its material. It was no longer made of various metals but was instead constructed of food.
As for where the blood smell was coming from, he wasn't quite sure, but one thing was certain: they were no longer on the original train but were enveloped in some kind of realm.
This, of course, wasn't something Sun Zhen had figured out on his own; Qin Muye had mentioned it when he pinched the ring.
"How do you fight someone who can control blood and frost?"
His frost ability wasn't about casting ice spears or blizzards but only affected the opponent's body.
Currently, its power was only enough to slow the opponent down.
As for controlling blood, it was even more ridiculous. He could only control the enemy's blood and even then, only to accelerate it.
But he still tried, first applying a buff to the opponent, unsure if it was a debuff or a buff.
The fat man, who was eating, suddenly paused. His skin was covered in frost, and his movements became slower, but his body began to expand.
He looked like a balloon being inflated.
This action was crazily compressing the space in the compartment, and the food-based facilities were gradually being absorbed into his body.
He had changed his way of eating.
"Damn, this is a trap!!" Sun Zhen kept retreating, then tried to pull the door to go back, but when he looked closely, he was utterly baffled.
"Why did it turn into chocolate, and where did the other compartments go?"
Kicking open the chocolate door, Sun Zhen saw not the original compartment but a thick wall of cookies.
This situation forced him to fight the gluttonous giant to the death. Only by killing the other could he survive; otherwise, he would be swallowed alive by the glutton.
Don't ask how he knew; the look in the glutton's eyes when he turned to face him was enough to tell. They were green with hunger.
There was no question of peaceful coexistence; the glutton's desire to eat him was evident, and he seemed desperate.
The massive body lunged at him, and Sun Zhen quickly rolled away, using the two abilities from the ring to tangle with the gluttonous giant. His mind raced, trying to figure out how to deal with the opponent.
A few days ago, he was just a 996 programmer with no overtime pay, weak and unable to lift anything heavy. The mental fortitude he now possessed was already quite impressive.
Combat experience? He wasn't the protagonist; he couldn't possibly fight monsters with fluid, graceful movements right from the start.
Encountering such a situation, he could only grit his teeth and push through. As for Qin Muye, he couldn't count on him. He had heard that these monsters were derivatives, not the main entities, so Qin Muye was dealing with the real boss and couldn't spare a hand to save him.
'When did the world become so unfamiliar?'
If he had known the world would be so absurd, Sun Zhen would have preferred to continue his 996 work, even without overtime pay, at least he wouldn't have to fight monsters.
Now, everything had to be fought for, first with ghosts, then with these monsters. Sometimes, ignorance was better. Even if it meant dying without understanding why, it was better than enduring this torment.
The battle went back and forth. The gluttonous giant wasn't very smart, and with Sun Zhen continuously stacking frost and accelerating blood flow, the fat man became increasingly uncomfortable. Blood began to seep through his skin.
This made him realize that as long as he continued to kite the gluttonous giant, it was only a matter of time before he wore him down.
"Quite the enjoyer, aren't you? I'm a bit curious, why did you deliberately target Sun Zhen?" Qin Muye held a cup of expensive wine and looked at the old man in a suit across the table. The old man wasn't human but an Alpha-level anomaly.
"And you? Why did you deliberately seek him out?" The old man's tone was very calm. He took a sip of wine and said, "Thirty-year-old clear brew, you should try it."
"Oh, just a small accident." Qin Muye casually put down the wine. "Wine, women, wealth, and wrath, I only indulge in wealth."
He didn't drink and didn't want to.
"Wealth? Is this enough?" As soon as he spoke, the entire room was filled with gold, silver, and jewels.
Qin Muye chuckled. "Vulgar, too vulgar. You don't understand the true meaning of wealth."
This made the old man's expression change, and then various beautiful women appeared.
"Red powder skeletons, a pile of moving flesh representing women?" Qin Muye became even more disdainful.
The old man, who had been mingling in the human world, had become vulgar in his understanding of wine, women, wealth, and wrath.
"As an anomaly, I am disappointed in you. No wonder the All-World Protectors Organization rates you as Alpha-level and not Omega-level."
In the All-World Protectors Organization, the old man was known as Alpha-level Anomaly: Huang Liang Elder. His name was quite vulgar, but his abilities were not to be underestimated. Using wine, women, wealth, and wrath as his powers, he had evolved seven derivatives representing the seven deadly sins. Unfortunately, his development of these abilities was quite poor.
He was one of the few human-like anomalies that had managed to maintain his individuality, having been out of control for a long time. He never expected to target Sun Zhen.
"Red dust brews wine, vast lands and beautiful women, all living beings and things are wealth. A true grandeur is to unify them all."
Qin Muye stood up and pointed at him from a high place. His words sounded grand, but upon further thought, they were utter nonsense. Could anyone really achieve such a feat?
If Huang Liang Elder truly believed Qin Muye's nonsense, he would be led astray.
"Do you want the power of the Primordial Dragon?" Huang Liang Elder didn't fall for it. Qin Muye's words sounded beautiful, but his abilities of wine, women, wealth, and wrath, if they truly had such power, would indeed be extremely strong. But it wasn't something that could be achieved just by talking. Had he not thought about similar things before?
"Sure, why don't you back off?" Qin Muye didn't know what the Primordial Dragon was, but that didn't stop him from trying to deceive the other.
"Hah, I've been planning for decades. You think I'll back off just because you say so?" Huang Liang Elder sneered.
"Fine, if you don't back off, how about being my subordinate? I'll give you a taste of the Primordial Dragon's power." Qin Muye's words were shameless, like offering to spare someone's life in exchange for their treasure.
No one could tolerate such insolence. Just as he was about to attack, Huang Liang Elder suddenly noticed that the entire room was surrounded by countless black crystals, and the realm he had summoned with his powers of wine, women, wealth, and wrath had been torn open.
More importantly, he realized that these black crystals were alive and were slowly consuming the entire realm.
And his seven deadly sins derivatives were completely cut off, their powers unusable.
"Really, you came here with ill intentions. Do you think I'm easy to bully?" Huang Liang Elder's expression turned cold, and he prepared to attack.
"Actually, you're the one who came here." Qin Muye kindly reminded him. "Sun Zhen has always been under my control, so you can't blame me. It's a matter of who came first."
It was rare to encounter a justified battle, which excited Qin Muye. In the past, he had always acted without justification. After all, if he destroyed the world, no one would know he had done anything wrong. But now, it was different. It was rare to have a legitimate reason.
"I've been watching him since his parents' generation. You can't compete with me in terms of who came first." A cold glint flashed in Huang Liang Elder's eyes, and he decisively attacked.
"..." Qin Muye decided to beat him to a pulp, not because he was the later comer, but because the other dared to flash a cold glint in his eyes!
