For the next half a day, Lin Sanjiu and the grand prize acted as if they had just found a new toy. They kept Deun by their side and conducted all kinds of experiments on him. The first thing they did was to strip Deun naked.
Deun, who was completely naked, did not feel that he looked ugly at all. He sat on the ground with his legs crossed. After the two of them examined him carefully, they both let out a sigh of relief.
"No," the grand prize looked back and forth as if he was afraid that Deun might have used some kind of trick to hide his body, "He really doesn't have any genitals."
"I don't like that thing, so I took it off," Deun said listlessly. "I don't know why some Gods would keep it. It's too uncomfortable to move around."
"Can such a part be removed?
Where did these so-called Gods come from? What kind of species are they? "
Lin Sanjiu's mind was filled with countless questions.
She knew that she wouldn't get the answer now, so she threw the tattered clothes back to Deun. Ever since Deun's body grew bigger, his clothes grew longer as well. Apparently, it was also due to the influence of "Divine Power".
Divine Power Level 1 only required one statue, and Level 2 required two. At the third level, there would be four. At the fourth level, there would be eight … The number of God Idols required for each level would double. Moreover, the "number" here was calculated based on the size of the God.
If the statue wasn't as big as the God himself, the only way to make up for the difference was through quantity. It was no wonder that Deva's territory was littered with her statues.
From Level 5 onward, it became a critical point in the growth of Divine Power.
16 to 32. This number didn't sound like much, but when it came to sculpting and drawing the God's statue bit by bit, it became a task that gave people a headache just hearing about it. Even though Lin Sanjiu borrowed the power of her Special Items, it still took her a long time to paint 32 statues, not to mention those "Flesh Men" who had to sculpt the wood with their bare hands and paint the statues bit by bit.
Currently, Lin Sanjiu could only convert 64 items per day. Hence, after Lin Sanjiu upgraded her Deun ability to Divine Power Level 6, she stopped creating portraits and kept the [Unfinished Painting].
"What are you doing?" Having tasted the sweetness, Deun impatiently shook his body and asked, "Why did you stop? Go on! "
Lin Sanjiu glanced at him and then looked at the [White Towel] in her hand.
These were the supplies that she had plundered from the Kisaragi Station Hotel. There were at least seven or eight bundles of the same towels in her card bank. Every time her Divine Power increased by one level, she would take out a towel and force Deun to attack her once. Then, she would attach the attack to the [White Towel] card. So far, she already had six cards with Divine Energy attacks. Lin Sanjiu had a feeling that she was getting closer and closer to her limit.
Although she could not continue testing now, she guessed that her greatest combat ability was about the level of Divine Power Level 9 or 10.
"This is too low …" Lin Sanjiu sighed inwardly. She was dissatisfied with herself.
When Deun saw that Lin Sanjiu was ignoring him, he grumbled about how she was disrespecting the True God. However, he saw with his own eyes that Lin Sanjiu had converted all the portraits into cards. Every time he launched an attack, it would disappear without a trace. Even though he was angry, there was nothing he could do. All he could do was walk around in circles.
He was now as tall as a three-story building. If he stretched out his hand, he could hold both of his grand prize's legs. However, even though he had grown so tall, he still couldn't do anything to Lin Sanjiu.
As night fell, the two people who had been tormenting Deun for the whole afternoon were finally tired. The moon was clear and bright that night. Even though there was a thick layer of fog, the moonlight still managed to penetrate through. Even though the moonlight was dim, it cast a silvery glow on the half-destroyed mountain village, giving it a unique coldness.
The grand prize started a fire. The silver and red light reflected off each other and finally warmed up the night. The few houses that were on the verge of collapse were now a pile of ruins, and even the mattresses were crushed. Both of them decided to sleep under the cover of a mattress on the dirt road. The grand prize cooked a pot of noodle soup, cracked a few bird eggs, and put a big box of luncheon meat on top of the fire.
Naturally, Lin Sanjiu didn't share any of the food with Deun.
"Go ahead and sleep," Lin Sanjiu said to the grand prize after dinner. "It wasn't easy for me to level up. I want to see if I can enter the Astral Plane tonight."
"What about him?" The grand prize pointed at the huge shadow in the night. "We can't just leave him like that. It's not safe."
"Let's see if there are any Special Items in the [Notebook] that can be used to imprison him," Lin Sanjiu said thoughtfully. "Let's tie him up first. His Divine Energy is still useful."
At the very least, she could store a lot of Divine Energy for her Level 6 attacks.
Just when Ji Shanqing agreed and took the thick [Notebook], the huge shadow that was as big as a hill suddenly screamed. It turned around and ran out of the village. It seemed like it had heard their conversation.
"I've never seen such a stupid god," Lin Sanjiu scolded impatiently. Then, she ran after it. Deun didn't even consider that his portrait was in her hands. Where could he run to?
Deun might look stupid, but now that he had reached Level 6, his running speed wasn't slow at all. In the blink of an eye, he had covered half the hill. As her grand prize was still in the village, Lin Sanjiu didn't dare to go too far away. Just when she was about to release her Higher Consciousness, the shadow that looked like a small building suddenly stopped in the darkness.
Lin Sanjiu was stunned. Before she could figure out what was going on, Deun turned around and ran back to her.
"What happened to you —"
Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Deun's pale face under the dim moonlight. Her blood ran cold.
Lin Sanjiu looked up. The dark mountain in the distance had condensed into an undulating shadow. It stood quietly in the dark night. At that moment, not even a bird was chirping. Only the night wind blew past them. Just as Deun was about to run past her, she stretched out her arm and grabbed the corner of his shirt, which was as wide as a flag. She asked, "What did you see?"
Deun's flat face was covered in sweat. His lips moved a few times, but no sound came out. Lin Sanjiu frowned. Just when she was about to ask again, the ground beneath her suddenly shook. Both of them were thrown into the air.
Deun screamed as if he had lost control. He was thrown far away into the air. He didn't get thrown far before he fell back to the ground. Lin Sanjiu looked down from the air, and her heart skipped a beat when she saw what was happening.
The grass and trees were overturned, and the soil cracked. It was as if someone had installed a zipper on the ground beneath their feet, and it was slowly being pulled open. The tremors caused the surrounding forest to collapse, revealing the dark interior beneath the soil crust.
Countless pieces of soil, rocks, grass, and branches were shaken left and right. Finally, as the "zipper" was pulled further and further apart, they fell into the black hole with a rumble. For a moment, mud and sand fell, and the sky was dark. Deun was already as big as a small building, but compared to the dark space below the "zipper", he was like a small piece of rice on the side of a person's mouth.
Just when Lin Sanjiu thought that she had stumbled into another dimensional rift, perhaps due to the large amount of sand and rocks that had fallen into the rift, a large patch of dark-red color suddenly rushed out from the dark hole. As the sky was dark, Lin Sanjiu couldn't see anything clearly. She was hovering in the air without any support. Seeing that she was about to fall, she swung her [Tornado Whip] like a madman and managed to withstand the force of the impact. Finally, with the help of the wind, she was thrown out of the dark hole.
When she turned her head to look, she saw the patch of dark-red color clearly.
It was a thick and huge human tongue.
The thick and flexible tongue was covered with a yellowish-white coating. After Lin Sanjiu poked her head out of the black hole, she realized that it was a mouth. There was a layer of sticky saliva on both sides of the tongue, and it even glistened under the moonlight.
The human tongue curled in the air and wrapped around Deun. Even a Level 6 Divine Power couldn't resist the tongue. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the huge mouth. A long howl reverberated in the air before it stopped abruptly.
Then, the black hole closed up, and the ground shook violently. The area within a radius of several dozen miles suddenly became empty, as if it had gone bald. The forest that didn't fall into the huge mouth was silent for a few breaths. Then, it swayed a little.
After a breath's pause, the forest swayed in the same direction again.
It looked as if there was a gigantic creature breathing, causing the entire forest to sway.
Lin Sanjiu's head was about to explode. She hurriedly conjured a few more tornadoes. She was almost involuntarily lifted into the sky and flew in another direction. The world in front of her was a blur. When she finally broke through the layers of branches and landed on the ground, she was so dizzy from the fall that her vision went black. For a moment, she couldn't see anything. She could only feel the ground beneath her trembling. Trees, mud, and rocks hit her one after another. The pain was so intense that she had no choice but to activate her [Higher Consciousness Defense].
When her surging blood finally calmed down, her eyesight also returned. The darkness had just faded from her vision, so it was hard for her to tell where her blind spot was and where the night sky was. But soon, Lin Sanjiu raised her head and froze.
A gigantic God was standing in the distance. His chest was shrouded in white mist. As soon as he stood up, a long and towering mountain range disappeared from the ground. Thick layers of rocks, mud, grass, trees, and trees fell from his body like raindrops.
The mountain that surrounded the village was actually a god.
Lin Sanjiu suddenly thought of something. She quickly summoned the portrait of Deun. Using the dim moonlight to look at it, she couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.
Deun's flat face was no longer depicted on the portrait. Instead, it was a portrait of a tall, bronze-faced stranger. It seemed to be a man. His face was square and expressionless. His eyes occupied half of his face, and they looked like the compound eyes of an insect.
Lin Sanjiu clutched the portrait in her hand. While she was still in shock, the ground beneath her feet shook violently again. She looked up and saw the gigantic male God raising his leg high up in the air. Then, he stomped it down slowly. Boom! It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck the surface of the planet. Lin Sanjiu was so shocked that she fell to the ground and stopped breathing.
That was where her grand prize was.
Lin Sanjiu felt a rush of blood rushing to her head, and her face turned pale.
While praying that her grand prize had already escaped, Lin Sanjiu summoned all the paintings of Deun and was about to tear them into pieces. As long as the divine power of the gigantic god was reduced, her grand prize would have a higher chance of escaping!
