Seized by the System

Chapter 663: The Appearance of an Evil God

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the morning three days later, Fang Ning was awakened by the System from his slumber.

In the past few days, there had not been news from the Sky Eagle, until today, when there was finally news of change.

“Not good, Mr. Rich Guy. The Black Jade People are dying at a large scale. This definitely seems like they’re about to face a genocide!” urged the System.

“Is there such a thing? Let’s hurry and check it out.” Fang Ning hastily crawled out from his bed.

“Of course, I just used the Double Divine Broken Monuments to seal up the slum that they live in to prevent death from spreading, but, but this is a long-term plan. To maintain the two fellows, I have to expend a large amount of vital energy. If it’s not because I’ve reached Inland-Sea level and have vital energy as vast as the sea, I won’t be able to stand the long term exhaustion,” grumbled the System.

“Let me check it out,” Fang Ning hurriedly peeked out from the System View.

He was dumbfounded by the view.

In the lowly-roofed slum area, the ground was littered with dark bodies facing the sky. Their empty eyes spoke of resentment, fear, and disbelief, as though they were traumatized before their death.

The number of deaths was vast, reaching up to around hundreds of thousands.

In the area between the heavens and earth, a light yellow shield flickered, sealing them from the outside world.

If Fang Ning was still an ordinary person that he was a few years ago, he would have been dumbstruck.

At this moment, he only frowned with a severe expression on his face.

It was probably due to the fact that he was used to going to war alongside the System that he was already immune to the bloodbaths.

“This is unexpectedly terrible,” said Fang Ning solemnly. “These are born soldiers. In the last sacrificial ceremony, the sacrifices only showed this expression in their last moments before their souls were offered to the heavens of earth of our realm. Perhaps whatever that they witnessed right before their death is enough to compare to the heavens and earth of this land?”

“Hiss... Can it be an opponent of this nature?” Hearing that, the System immediately whispered internally. “Then I won’t care about their fate; I’m leaving. I’m leaving.”

Then, Fang Ning felt the System View’s slow departure and he immediately shouted for it to stop, “Haven’t you always gotten excited by news of monsters? An opponent like this can surely grant high experience points.”

“Even if the experience point reaches sky high, if I can’t defeat it, it’s as meaningless as a penny to me,” grumbled the System.

“I was only guessing. It’s not confirmed yet that you’re no match for him

. You could always recharge for some experience. The last time you defeated Shang Ruoyu from the Azure Mountain, didn’t you accumulate hundreds of millions of experience points?” said Fang Ning in disbelief.

“That’s because your previous guesses were all spot-on. Since it can come up to the heavens and earth of this realm, I definitely can’t beat him right now. At most, I can flee from it, so why should I waste so much effort? You honestly think that I’ll spend all my experience for fun...” defended the System.

Fang Ning fell silent. The System had no sense of shame. The only restriction he had was from the rules stipulated by the game system.

Fang Ning would at least feel pitiful for these victims, yet the System would not have any.

Escaping when facing an undefeatable enemy and leaving behind a useful body for future’s sake was inarguable by many.

Willingly jumping into the line of bullets for one’s own sake was considered noble and great; if it was only for the purpose to impress, then it was pretentious, much like a keyboard warrior.

At this moment, angry grunts and insults flooded them from the outside.

“Hmmph, what kind of just Hero is that, sending us to our deaths like that!”

“That’s right! At this point, why will he even care for our lives?”

“Let’s fight. If we die on the battlefield, we can reincarnate into our own races. That’s better than having our souls perishing...” Someone started to discuss the solution.

“Yes, fight! Fight!”

“There are only around ten thousand of us, and now we’ve lost nearly a few thousand. The next batch of babies is still being nurtured and will only be born in three months. If we die like this, our race will be wiped out completely!”

...

Fang Ning vaguely heard these words, and a wave of hatred and disgust surged in him.

These people accepted the task of eradicating other races willingly. It meant that their whole race was professional murderers. Now, it was their turn to die, yet they all felt that it was unfair.

If it were not because of the System, who else could the innocent race that had been eradicated go to? In the end, they were all scapegoats who would not even know what they died for!

“Remove the Two Divine Monuments and let these people die!” Fang Ning was not a person who was willing to endure such persecution.

“We should’ve done this early on. These cold-blooded people... If I hadn’t gotten here on time, more would’ve been dead. But, are you sure you won’t trigger some issues with our Chivalry Points?” said the System worriedly.

“I assure you, it won’t. Relax, I’m an educated man. I won’t lie to you,” said Fang Ning determinedly.

“Alright, then I’m removing them.”

Soon, the thin shielding layer of light yellow surrounding the low-ceilinged slum area quickly faded away.

Subsequently, more people collapsed onto the ground without any apparent reason with eyes full of terror.

“Ah... Again!” Someone said, horrified.

Many Black Jade People started to run amok, they no longer retained the same mood they had when they were busy criticizing just now.

Now they understood the consequences of reproaching a God.

They thought that they could take advantage of a kind man because Vigilante A was a man of justice. Both Fang Ning and the System were no gentlemen.

Fang Ning’s daily dictum of “love and justice” was merely propaganda to gain Reputation. The same could be applied to the System as well.

Both of them had no nobility of a Sage. Facing false accusations and persecution from these people, why would they still consider helping them?

Their life or death did not matter.

Fang Ning was not their father...

After a while, golden light glimmered on the surface of the big lake suddenly and engulfed the slum area where the Black Jade People resided.

Only then did the chain of death halt.

Then, a voice rang, “My good sir, no matter what, it is I who have brought the Black Jade People to the Lower Realm. Even though they deserve to be punished for breaking their promise, now that they’ve been punished, you should stop now.”

“Shhh,” a deep voice seeped out from the empty space. “Since they’ve made a holy contract with me and gone against it, their race will be eradicated. Don’t think that you can stop me just because you’re the River God of the Sky River. You do realize how obsolete you are? Now, I’m definitely stronger than you.”

“Hehe, Supreme Deity, even though you’ve hidden it well, I can still make some assumptions. I’ve just chosen to grant you a chance to retain your dignity and not let the cat out of the bag. If you’re still stubborn, you mustn’t blame me for not sparing your feelings.” The voice from the lake continued.

“Hmmph, if that’s the case, then I’ll let these despicable beings off for today. If they dare to go against my holy orders again, I will absolutely eradicate them!” The voice in the empty space disappeared without a trace.

“Wait, you cowardly god! You’ve puppeteered lives and speak easily of genocides and slaughters. Your great sins send angry trembles down the spine of every human and god! I can’t ever allow you to step onto the heavens and earth of this realm at all!” Vigilante A descended from the sky all of a sudden.

“Eh, Sir, didn’t you just say you’re going to pass on this?” asked Fang Ning confusedly.

“Eh... The moment it voiced out, my instinct tells me that I can defeat it,” said the System gleefully.

“So, that’s how it is.” Fang Ning said with a sudden realization, “However, Sky Eagle has been gathering information globally for three days continuously and it didn’t find out anything about this evil god. It must be really good, you should be careful.”

“Relax, I’ll let it escape at most. I won’t let it cause us any harm. I’m going!” said the System confidently.
