Dun Jun woke up.
He felt like he had had a terrible nightmare.
In the dream, he was stared at by a terrifying skeletal serpent, and his body was in excruciating pain.
Then, he seemed to fall into another abyss.
He had already forgotten what had happened there.
In short, it must have been very terrifying and terrifying. It gave him a headache just thinking about it.
Dun Jun only vaguely remembered the terror that seemed to have materialized and spread over him, as well as the murmurs in his ears.
As he recalled, the murmur became clearer and clearer.
"Hmm?"
He shook his head and looked around. He realized that he was still in the hunting ground. The darkness in the sky had dissipated at some point in time, allowing the scarlet light to sprinkle down.
"I'm so lucky that I wasn't killed by others while I was asleep …"
Dun Jun murmured. Suddenly, he heard a low roar of a beast.
No … it was more like the sound of suppressed pain of a human.
A black shadow swooped down.
Dun Jun's pupils constricted, turning amber in an instant. They stretched up and down, turning into the vertical pupils of a snake, allowing him to see the attacker clearly.
It was a disgusting monster.
It had four human limbs, muscular and abnormally thick. The surface of its body was wrapped in scarlet vines, as if it had grown as one with its flesh and blood.
On top of the sturdy body was an old skull that was completely disproportionate to its size. There was even a layer of mucus on it that looked like egg white.
For some reason, Dun Jun felt a sense of familiarity when he looked at the opponent's aged face.
He remembered that it was a competitor he had met before. His skill with the axe was superb, making him very wary.
But back then, the opponent was only about twenty years old, and he wasn't a monster!
His momentary absent-mindedness allowed the monster in front of him to seize an opportunity.
It roared and stretched out its right hand. A vine turned into a spear and stabbed Dun Jun in the chest.
"Ah!"
Dun Jun screamed, but he didn't feel any pain in his chest.
He touched his skin and felt as if he was touching a layer of steel.
Beyonder Power: Steel Skin?!
An inexplicable message flowed through his mind, allowing Dun Jun to immediately understand what it meant. I've become an Beyonder?
He pounced forward, braving the spear-like scarlet vines and arrived in front of the monster.
Seeing that aged face, Dun Jun once again confirmed that he was his opponent.
Becoming a monster, becoming a Beyonder … This Abyss game is indeed problematic.
Dun Jun muttered in his heart as he stabbed the dagger into the old man's head.
The huge monster collapsed, its body still twitching.
"Well done!"
A three-eyed raven suddenly flew over and circled in the air before speaking in the voice of a middle-aged man. "I am the organizer of the Abyss Game, Dun Jun. Congratulations on becoming the sole winner."
"I … won? There should be another group of people … "Dun Jun murmured.
"No, you're the only human left." The Three-Eyed Raven emphasized the word 'human'. "I also want to thank you for helping me win a bet with a beautiful lady. Come with me … If you don't want to be surrounded and killed, by the way … the Mystical Power you brought back from Hell is not bad, but it won't allow you to survive the siege of almost a hundred monsters …"
Dun Jun pursed his lips and looked at Enke's corpse not far away. All that was left was a pool of black marks. This made his heart sink even more.
"Come with me."
The Three-Eyed Raven flew, and Dun Jun followed closely behind.
He discovered that this raven had a special ability. It seemed to have a wide range of detection, and it could always bypass the detection range of some monsters.
Apart from that, it also had the ability to turn invisible. When it really could not dodge, it could walk past the monsters with Dun Jun without attracting any attention.
Finally, it brought Dun Jun to the front of a convoy.
The steel behemoth let out a high-pressure steam roar, and the huge muzzle represented terrifying lethality.
The Three-Eyed Raven landed on the shoulder of a middle-aged gentleman. He opened his arms and gave Dun Jun a hug. "Winner of the competition, young Beyonder, welcome to Uptown! Come, get in the car. We've prepared a welcome banquet for you … "
"This convoy doesn't seem to be here to pick me up."
Dun Jun's eyes darted around as he suddenly asked.
He saw that after the steam chariot, there were also iron caged trucks.
"Of course …"
The middle-aged gentleman clapped his hands, and the armed squads spread out to capture some flesh and blood monsters and throw them into the cages.
"You can't be thinking that the City of Steam's only power comes from burning coal in the core furnace, right? It's also a mystical item … Monsters are the best fuel. "
"Oh, you can call me Mr. Seagal."
Seagal said nonchalantly.
"The Abyss game every year … is to create monsters and replenish fuel?" Dun Jun felt that he had grasped the truth.
"And to give birth to Beyonders, such as you. Well, you're the only one who survived this time. After all, it's a deep level of hell …"
Seagal shrugged.
He brought Dun Jun to the chariot.
The steel behemoth roared as it opened a path, and any flesh and blood monsters that dared to block its way were crushed into a bloody pulp.
Dun Jun finally arrived at the mysterious Uptown.
The air was fresh, the streets were clean, and the pedestrians were dressed decently. Their complexions were healthy and ruddy.
Looking at this scene, he did not know why, but the corner of his eyes became a little moist.
"Hehe … Once you become a member of Uptown, you'll get a place to stay. You'll have everything you need, don't worry. We're here … "
Seagal brought Dun Jun to the front of a huge building. "Before the banquet, you need to take a good bath and change your clothes … Believe me, many ladies are interested in you … They like powerful gladiators! And you're the best this year. "
Dun Jun obeyed the arrangement somewhat stupidly. After taking a bath, he changed into a soft, smooth, bright and beautiful suit that he was not used to. Then, he followed Seagal to a venue.
The door opened, and melodious music mixed with laughter and the aroma of food wafted into his nose.
"Welcome to heaven, little fellow."
Seagal revealed an exaggerated smile.
Dun Jun could not move his eyes away.
The first thing he saw was the buffet area. There were mountains of steaks, fried chicken, cakes, desserts, all kinds of fruits … and sharp glasses with fragrant alcohol inside.
"The residents of Downtown can only eat two meals of black paste a day …"
Dun Jun did not know why, but this was the first thing he thought of when he saw the ladies coming toward him.
