(PS: Fate will receive a Bloody Invitation when he dies. I'll add it to the list later)
Sheyan did not want to waste any more time with the Cardinal. There was only one thing in his mind right now! To be precise, it was a number.
"1744.38 meters."
This was not an altitude or anything like that, but a distance that Sheyan had carefully calculated on Google Maps in advance.
The distance from here to the 11th floor of the Manhattan Financial Center!
To some extent, this was the distance between success and failure, the distance between life and death!
The goal that Sheyan set for himself was to do everything possible and seize every opportunity to shorten this number. Once the number was shortened to 0, he would succeed.
In such a difficult situation, only by being completely focused and free from distracting thoughts could he possibly succeed in the end! Otherwise, once there were distracting thoughts in one's heart, one would be discouraged and lose one's courage, losing one's motivation.
The surrounding air suddenly evaporated and changed like ripples in water. Sheyan took a deep breath and watched as the huge milky white cross smashed into his body.
This time, the Cardinal had read the situation where Sheyan stole Huashan Fei's cash and heroin in the real world, so the sin that came to him this time was greed.
A terrifying creature appeared out of thin air. It looked very much like a water elemental, but also somewhat similar to the genie in the myth of Aladdin. However, its colour was a little amber, and bubbles would gush out of its translucent body from time to time. It hovered in the air, its lower end about 30 centimeters above the ground, but its height could reach up to 5 meters. It quickly slid towards Sheyan.
"What the hell is this?" Sheyan was puzzled. He saw a black man yawning next to him walking out of the subway station while listening to rap rhythmically. The strange liquid creature completely ignored his existence. It bumped into the black man from behind and directly swallowed him into its body!
The moment the black man was swallowed into the translucent liquid creature's body, he immediately showed an expression of extreme pain. He looked like he wanted to scream, but he could not make the slightest sound! What was terrifying was that the surface of his body quickly turned red and charred. In the end, he turned into a charred piece of wood. One could see that his clothes were quickly turning black. Even his phone and the like started to catch fire and explode.
At the sight of this thing, Sheyan couldn't help feeling his scalp tingling. According to the information he had, this was an oil elemental composed of boiling oil! The punishment for the crime of greed is to throw the sinner into a frying pan. Oh, to put it in a more fashionable way, it is the processing method of KFC's finger sucking chicken …
After seeing this guy, Sheyan was sure that he couldn't let the oil elemental "hug" him into its body. Otherwise, the consequences would be very troublesome. Even if he wasn't scalded to death, he would suffocate to death. However, while he tried his best to hide his purpose of escaping to Morgan Central, many thoughts flashed through his mind.
"Logically speaking, the greater the crime, the greater the punishment, but this oil elemental created by the Cardinal is so abnormal that I don't even have a chance to fight back. It's not fast, but it's not slow either. It's far more difficult than the crime of gluttony. Hmm? According to the characteristics of the oil elemental, could its weakness be …? "
With that in mind, Sheyan picked up a trash can next to him with a backhand motion.
The trash can was astonishingly large, and it was full of garbage. The cleaners used hooks to hook the edge of the bucket and used mechanical force to dump the garbage, but Sheyan threw the trash can more than 20 meters away effortlessly. The trash can smashed into the waist of the giant boiling oil elemental, splashing out a large amount of oil stains.
The entire trash can then smashed heavily into the body of the oil elemental! The oil elemental was repeatedly roasted at a high temperature of hundreds of degrees.
Sheyan also noticed that after the trash can hit the ground, the oil stains that splashed out condensed into a ball like mercury and did not dissipate. They slowly crept towards the oil elemental as if they had a life of their own. They seemed to have the ability to heal themselves. But Sheyan also noticed that when the giant oil elemental shrank and roasted the trash can in its body, its movement speed was significantly reduced!
"I see." Sheyan's eyes flashed with a hint of understanding. He then brazenly slammed his shoulder against the curtain of a nearby shop. That unlucky curtain instantly emitted a groaning sound, as though it was unable to bear the weight. The outline of Sheyan's shoulder was easily imprinted on it, before it finally tore apart with a loud crash.
Sheyan jumped forward and rolled to his feet. He picked up the two-liter plastic bucket in the water dispenser next to him and rushed back to the sidewalk.
Next, Sheyan lifted the plastic bucket that was still half-filled with purified water and threw it at the giant oil elemental.
The outer plastic of the plastic bucket lasted for about five seconds under the boiling oil. Then, about a liter of water inside came into contact with the high-temperature oil inside the giant oil elemental. Everyone knew what would happen when a drop of water fell into a pot of boiling oil. Now, more than a liter of water had dissolved into the five-meter-tall giant oil elemental, resulting in a shocking explosion!
After throwing the plastic bucket, Sheyan immediately fled towards the Morgan Center as fast as he could without hesitation.
It was not that he did not want to run away when he saw the giant oil elemental, but if he did, the giant oil elemental would move faster than him. Moreover, he did not know if the giant oil elemental had any long-range attack ability. It would be tantamount to exposing his back to the enemy. In that case, it would not be called running away, but being chased by the enemy!
After a loud bang came from behind, Sheyan had already fled for nearly a hundred meters, but he still felt an indescribable burning sensation on his back. It was as if thousands of hot needles were stabbing into his skin. Apparently, the boiling oil from the explosion had splashed all over him.
But Sheyan did not care at all. He continued to run. He believed that after the explosion, he would at least have a minute of safety on his back. In fact, he was right. Almost half of the giant oil elemental's body had been blown apart. The boiling oil around the wound wriggled like the tentacles of a snail and kept fusing. Its speed had obviously slowed down.
Under such circumstances, it would take at least ten minutes for the giant oil elemental to heal itself, let alone catch up to Sheyan. Just as Sheyan was feeling proud of himself, the giant oil elemental suddenly exploded on its own when he reached the entrance of the Morgan Center!
The scene was like a fountain shooting straight into the sky. Thousands of square meters of boiling oil were all over the place. Of course, 70 to 80 innocent and curious New Yorkers were seriously scalded by the explosion.
After this gigantic monster representing the sin of avarice self-detonated, Sheyan instantly staggered. The sudden sharp pain caused him to fall to the ground in an incomparably sorry state. One could clearly see the brand of the sin of avarice once again appearing on his leg.
"This guy is really vicious. When it saw that it couldn't catch up to me in time, it decisively self-destructed and branded me as the sinner."
Sheyan gritted his teeth and got up. He finally made it into the Morgan Center. Although he was in a sorry state, he was only eleven floors away from success! As long as he could grit his teeth and survive, he would reap a great harvest!
But at that moment, the Cardinal mysteriously appeared a hundred meters behind Sheyan. He tilted his head slightly and once again pulled Sheyan into the illusion.
This time, the Cardinal punished Sheyan with the same crime as Aziz – lust!
The crimes that the Cardinal could convict of were all experiences in the real world, not in the Nightmare Realm. Therefore, although Aziz's punishment at that time was very severe, with the magma smoke being almost like a forbidden spell, when it came to Sheyan, two magma elementals immediately appeared and chased after Sheyan fiercely. The severity of the punishment was completely different from Aziz's.
After Sheyan regained his freedom, he did not take the elevator, nor did he dare to take the elevator. Instead, he went straight up the stairs through the fire escape. The two magma elementals were not very fast and did not pose much of a threat to Sheyan, so Sheyan simply endured their attacks and went up the stairs!
But when Sheyan reached the eighth floor, a magma elemental actually reached out to hug Sheyan. Sheyan immediately kicked the magma elemental. The orange flames on the magma elemental's head quickly spread to Sheyan's feet, but the magma elemental was still sent flying. After landing on the ground, the flames on the magma elemental's body quickly shrank, revealing the rock body underneath. The rock skull smashed into pieces when it hit the hard ground!
"Damn it! How shameless can you be? You actually used the killing move again! "Sheyan said in grief and indignation. "I was just trying to push it away!"
By now, Sheyan was only three floors away from the eleventh floor, and the Cardinal's punishment was getting weaker and weaker! This time, Sheyan was found guilty of the crime of arrogance. His punishment was to use several giant wheels to tear him apart like five horses tearing his body apart.
Aziz was probably also guilty of a serious crime for being arrogant. Once the punishment was handed down, it would be very difficult for him to resist. But for Sheyan, he just had to drag five huge shackles that suddenly appeared on his body and continue moving forward like he was wearing shackles. (To be continued.
