I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 279 - 200: The Blasphemer
Chapter 279: Chapter 200: The Blasphemer
Chen Lun held the Tongue of Gluttony hand crossbow and retreated to the side of the Silver Pot.
“This Mysterious Object is remarkably effective against targets with strong Life Force…”
He explained briefly, then raised his hand, aimed at the white beetle, and pulled the trigger.
With a series of zings, the crossbow string trembled, and three or four red crossbow arrows appeared out of thin air, shooting out, streaking through the air towards the white beetle.
Whiz whiz whiz!
But the next second, Chen Lun narrowed his eyes.
Only to hear a few clinks, the red crossbow arrows were deflected by the beetle’s unbelievably hard shell, spinning as they fell to the side—completely failing to penetrate the armor!
‘The primary function of this hand crossbow is not the power of the crossbow arrows themselves… but to use them as markers and bait, attracting a certain creature from the Spirit World to come and feast!’
Just as Chen Lun thought.
Next second, three heads the size of sofas suddenly appeared above the white beetle!
These were flat creatures, entirely red, covered with twisted, grotesque muscles; they had no eyes, nose, or ears, only a massive mouth filled with sharp teeth, drooling saliva, seemingly in a constant state of extreme hunger.
Chen Lun’s eyes clouded with mist as he focused his gaze.
‘These Spirit World creatures are called ‘Gluttons’, their strength is only at the level of a Sequence Seven Transcendent, but they possess a powerful devouring ability… Once something enters their stomachs, even steel would be digested!’
The three Gluttons opened their huge mouths, resembling big nets, and fiercely snapped at the white beetle.
Clang! Ping pong!
The creatures frenziedly gnawed at the white beetle, yet only crisp noises emanated.
Teeth shattered, saliva flew in all directions.
But the white beetle remained unmoved!
Its white shell, not even a scratch was left, still bright and glossy.
Eventually, the three Gluttons roared in frenzy a few times, ceased gnawing, and their figures slowly faded, reluctantly departing.
‘Even the Gluttons summoned by the hand crossbow can’t do anything to it… This Ancient God’s Child is too tough to chew!’
Chen Lun furrowed his brows and reluctantly stowed away his hand crossbow.
After a moment of contemplation, he turned and said to the Silver Pot:
“It seems we need to work together to destroy it!”
“The Silver Pot is correct.”
Mr. Pot spoke.
“It’s clear this white beetle is no ordinary foe, it’s hard to destroy it just relying on individual strength, let me lay the foundation for you first…”
As it finished speaking, the bronze surface of the pot once again lit up, those strange curse patterns and designs seeming to come to life, slowly twisting and undulating.

And its eyes, too, turned pitch black, then suddenly opened its mouth.
Four black tendrils, like little snakes, wriggled out from its mouth, then fell upon the white beetle.
The Ancient God’s Child seemed to sense the threat, moving its tentacles restlessly and anxiously, but did not flee, remaining in place.
Its originally bright white shell began to develop black spots and gradually lost its luster.
“I’ve inflicted it with four High Rank curses, namely ‘Aging’, ‘Poison of History’, ‘Body Softening’, and ‘Fragile Heart’… This would weaken it, lowering its defensive and Life Force capabilities, and essentially follow the same historical path towards Death as other pollution sources.”
Mr. Pot’s eyes regained their clarity, and it said with a smile.
“Hahaha… Silver Pot, you really have a way! Every time I team up with you, you always bring immense help!”
Mr. Jug flexed his arms loudly.
“Together with Silver Pot and myself joining forces, I now have enough confidence to flatten this fellow with one punch!”
Chen Lun silently watched on the side, the duo of Mr. Pot and Silver Pot gave him a sense of being the “perfect partners”. Mr. Pot might not be strong in direct combat, but he was an excellent “support”, his curses were honestly terrifying, capable of handling various situations.
Paired with Mr. Jug’s powerful offensive abilities, they could undoubtedly defeat many formidable foes of the Spirit World!
“Ready, Silver Pot?”
Mr. Jug turned to Chen Lun.
Chen Lun was holding the Kazt Longsword, a pale purple glow slowly rising from the blade—this was the gathering momentum of Byers Moonlight Sword.
He stepped forward with his left foot, straightened his right foot, puffed out his chest, and held the sword with both hands.
“Mr. Jug, you strike first in fifty-five seconds, then I’ll follow with my strongest slash, we must cut it down!”
“Alright!”
Mr. Jug first blinked, then nodded vigorously.
He and Mr. Pot exchanged glances, both feeling an unbelievably terrifying tremendous force emanating from Silver Pot’s new friend’s sword.
Time ticked by.
The three remained silent, quietly waiting.
Only the ever-intensifying, increasingly dazzling purple light shone from the age-old longsword.
When the purple sword gleam was bright enough, a deep voice came from Chen Lun’s Silver Pot:
“Now! Mr. Jug!”
As he finished speaking.
“Ha!!”
Mr. Jug roared, his entire robust body erupting with a spiraling hurricane of crimson energy, he launched forward like a cannonball, straight towards the white beetle.
Roar!
A punch was thrown, thunderous roaring!
“Die, disgusting bug! That was the supreme heavy punch of Jughead Warrior!”
Boom!!
Crimson punches overflowed, the Ancient God’s Child Didak, now wrapped in four curses, began to scream, its shell finally cracked, splashing out bright silvery blood.
Apparently sensing the threat of death, its densely packed tentacles on its head began to convulse wildly, the giant black vortex it spat out becoming distorted and unstable.
But this was still not enough to kill it!
Next second.
“Moonlight!”
The smooth, mirror-like surface of Chen Lun’s Silver Pot reflected a round of pristine Purple Moon.
Woo!!
The breathtaking slash, a four to five-meter wide curved Sword Qi sprinkled with light purple specks, shrieked and trembled as it crashed into the damaged white beetle!
How terrifying was the fully charged Moonlight Sword!
The light wave shattered, the white carapace shattered, the twisted black hole shattered…
The Rock Giant stopped walking, everything froze at that moment.
—— Boom!!
The shockwave scattered, and Chen Lun almost got blown away, but fortunately, he managed to stab his sword into the Rock Giant, wedging it between two stones, which stabilized his balance.
Both Silver Pot and his companion used their means to prevent falling from the giant’s shoulder.
With a series of crackling sounds, Chen Lun looked up to see the white beetle was cleaved into two halves, ceasing to exist.
Silver-white blood splattered everywhere and quickly dried when it met the air, turning into patches of silver.
Even the Rock Giant beneath it had a deep crack running from its neck to its belly!
[You have slain the Divine Child “Didak”! You gained 30,000 Experience Points!]
A notification popped up confirming the opponent’s death, settling Chen Lun’s mind.
The next second, another task completion notification appeared—
[Completed Level C Task: Spirit World Pollution!]
[You have eliminated the source of pollution and gained the mission reward: 15,000 Experience Points, 30 Gold Pounds, and increased Affection from Mr. Pot and Mr. Silver Pot.]
[Mr. Pot’s Affection towards you has increased! It is now Close!]
[Mr. Silver Pot’s Affection towards you has increased! It is now Close!]
“Well done, Silver Pot!”
Mr. Silver Pot stood up and praised loudly.
“Thanks to you, our mission could be smoothly accomplished.”
Mr. Pot collected the curse-infused dark threads from the beetle’s corpse, then stumbled over, chuckling.
However, Chen Lun shook his head, gently patted Mr. Pot’s arm, and then Mr. Silver Pot’s body, and said,
“This is the result of our joint efforts… even one less wouldn’t have worked.”
“Hahaha… you are right!”
Mr. Silver Pot laughed loudly, then crossed his arms and declared,
“From now on, we three of Silver Pot will walk together in the Spirit World, and see who can stand against us!”
Mr. Pot shook his head helplessly.
Chen Lun smiled at them, then went over to the white beetle’s corpse and picked up the supernatural material it left behind.
It was a small palm-sized, soft-bodied carapace that looked quite peculiar.
[Supernatural Material – Didak’s Pericardium]
‘With that piece of ‘Fairy’s Heart,’ I now possess two high-quality materials.’
Chen Lun joyfully secured it.
Just then,
A black line flew out from the corpse of the Divine Child and landed straight on Chen Lun.
[By slaying the Divine Child “Didak,” you have incurred the Curse “Blasphemer!”]
[Blasphemer LV1 (Curse)]
Curse Description: Your hands have touched the blood of a deity’s offspring and are now marked as a “living sacrifice” targeted for revenge, attracting the attention of the followers of Ancient God Distardack, his Divine Favors, and other Divine Children!
Curse Effect: All Attributes -1 (immunized by the Skin of Curse effect)
‘A curse? A living sacrifice…?’
Chen Lun raised an eyebrow.
He noticed that the curse’s effects were already immunized by [Skin of Curse], leaving only the “mark” function. Since this curse’s level was quite low, even if it attracted enemies, he was fully capable of dealing with them.
Chen Lun pondered for a moment.
He decided to keep this curse as “nourishment” for [Skin of Curse], enhancing his attributes.
Moreover, with Mr. Pot around, he could always remove it if necessary.
“Silver Pot, was that a curse just now?”
Mr. Pot asked.
“Don’t worry, let me consume it for you!”
Chen Lun shook his head with a smile.
“No need to trouble yourself, Mr. Pot; this curse is useful to me and won’t cause any negative effects…”
After speaking, he glanced at his panel, which after acquiring the curse provided him an increase of 2 Charm and 2 Willpower, quite beneficial.
“In that case, call me whenever you need…”
Mr. Pot said.
“No problem.”
Rumbling…!
Chen Lun suddenly felt intense tremors beneath his feet, likely because the pollution source’s demise caused the Rock Giant to start collapsing.
Boom!!
The towering tree in its hands crashed down, stirring up dust, and its body of rock and mud also started to break apart and fall.
Chen Lun saw this, casually tossed three cards downwards, which hissed into the ground, then lifted his black cloak and utilized “Great Human Transformation” magic to send Silver Pot down below, before he himself landed.
Yet another loud crash ensued as the Rock Giant completely collapsed into a small mound.
The remaining pollution creatures rushed furiously towards them.
“It seems there’s a little residue left to clean up…”
Mr. Silver Pot, seeing this, ignited his fighting spirit again.
“Let’s go! Finish them off, and this operation can end perfectly!”
“Of course.”
Chen Lun responded with an affirmative reply.
‘These are all Experience Points, can’t let one escape!’
