I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 789 - 487: The Death of Houston_2

However, Chen Lun had already vanished.

When he reappeared, he was standing atop Houston’s head out of thin air, expressionlessly thrusting his staff.

Swish!

The suspended dark shadowy behemoth melted like a liquid, and Chen Lun’s thrust ended up doing nothing but getting half of his body wrapped by the shadow, rendering him immobile for a moment.

The next second.

Another slender dark shadow materialized upside down above Chen Lun’s head, just like Houston’s reflection, trapping Chen Lun in mid-air.

On the upside-down gigantic pitch-black head, one could vaguely make out Houston’s facial features. The opposition opened his eyes, revealing ghastly pale and terrifying pupils, and cracked a smile.

With a whoosh from his mouth, he spewed a long, black spike covered with reverse barbs. The force of this strike far exceeded the previous ones, breaking the space of deep blue vision around it, and like a streak of black light, it came instantly before Chen Lun’s eyes.

This was Houston’s kill shot!

Bang!!!

The pitch-black spike turned into an overturned "black bowl" with a loud noise, as if a meteorite had struck against some hard material, shattering to pieces.

Chen Lun stood firm with a cold face, hovering in mid-air.

His right arm was raised in a fist held high, and it turned out to be this punch that had shattered Houston’s spear and simultaneously crushed the opponent’s conviction of a sure kill. The sleeve of his black suit had already turned to dust, revealing the sturdy muscles underneath, beautifully outlined and covered with a shimmering layer of white scales like glazed glass.

This was Chen Lun’s Mythical Creature Form!

To be precise, it was a part of it.

Facing the Conspiracy Saint’s kill shot, he dared not be careless, nor was he willing to fully reveal his trump card before the many high-ranking beings present. So, he chose to selectively release his right arm.

Such intricate control was achievable thanks to the Max Level Passive "Key of Life" he acquired after his transformation, which allowed Chen Lun to perfectly control his own body.

"This is impossible!"

The upside-down dark giant shook violently, emitting a low, hoarse roar. Houston’s facial features distorted, with a hint of panic and madness flashing in his pale eyes.

"You’ve only been promoted recently! How could you possess such strength?! Did you add a large amount of high-ranking substances during the Promotion Ceremony..."

"You talk too much!"

Chen Lun sneered.

He lifted his white-scaled right arm, spread his fingers and made a grasping motion in the air, brushing lightly beside him as if plucking invisible strings of death!

Twang—

Five invisible threads silently sliced through Houston’s enormous body, causing him to stiffen instantly.

The next second, under the surprised and cautious gazes of the other high-ranking beings, the hanging upside-down giant shadow was silently divided into several parts, and crashed down noisily.

Boom!

Dust scattered, and the deep blue vision twisted.

Houston’s remnants, like a pile of disgusting black lumps, accumulated together. His carriage-sized head rolled to one side, his facial features melting and distorting like wax, with asymmetric eyes filled with pain and hatred.

"You... killing me... the Council can’t contain you..."

The gaping mouth let out a hoarse and weak voice.

"Thanks for your concern, but that’s no longer for you to worry about, Houston."

Chen Lun said indifferently as he walked slowly, holding the Silver Staff.

"Since you chose the Speaker’s absence to come to the Royal City to seize power, you should bear all the consequences. Perhaps you never took me seriously at all? Haha."

He shook his head, chuckling coldly.

Chen Lun didn’t waste more words with Him and spread his fingers wide.

[You’ve executed the skill "Animal Mimicry LVMAX+5"!]

[Detected Mythical Creature "Houston" trait—"Shadow Container"!]

With a barely noticeable smirk at the corner of his mouth, he silently discarded the Supernatural Creatures trait "Sneak Body" and retained "Shadow Container".

Shadow Container—A Mythical Creature trait from the Conspiracy Saint Houston, it has the ability to continuously accumulate and store one’s own strength, ready to be released at any moment, unleashing multiple stacking effects.

"A nifty trait; that shadow spear the opponent spat out at the end must have been created using this feature..."

Chen Lun thought to himself, then once again attempted to deploy Skills.

But this time, the panel indicated to him that the [Animal Mimicry] memory slot could not accommodate any more mythical creature features for the time being.

He first paused, then sighed inwardly.

"It seems I’ve reached the limit for now. To fill all ten memory slots, perhaps I need to advance to Sequence Three?"

Since Houston no longer had any value to use, Chen Lun intended to send him on his way. He lifted the Silver Staff expressionlessly, poised to thrust, but a high-frequency vibrating water screen sharply rose from the ground, blocking like a transparent wall in front of him. fгeewebnovёl.com

His movements stalled, he narrowed his eyes and turned around.

"Chairman Aberhard, what does this mean?"

A middle-aged man in a yellow-brown casual suit walked over slowly, a smile on his face.

"First off, congratulations to Your Majesty Jack Spett on completing your transformation and ascending to the Holy Rank... However, Houston cannot die now. The Spirit World remains turbulent, and the Dark World continuously spread out Pollution Tides. Every high-ranking member of the Empire is a crucial Combat Power..."

"You want to meddle in the affairs of the Generous Council?"

Chen Lun did not pay heed to his words but asked indifferently.

Aberhard was slightly taken aback, then chuckled in denial.

"Of course not, I am just..."

"If it’s not that, then get lost!"

Chen Lun said coldly.

Aberhard was instantly stunned, as if he couldn’t believe his ears.

The next second.

The black-hatted young man lifted his white-scaled right arm and threw a fierce punch to the side.

Bang!!

A loud boom accompanied the trembling ground, and the transparent mythical water screen burst like fireworks, countless heavy drops scattering and falling like rain.

Aberhard came to his senses, his complexion darkened.

He lifted his own palm, his skin turning to stone. In the now clearly visible network of veins, blood as blue as ocean water surged, faintly emitting the roar of waves...

"Governing Officer Jack, I did try to persuade you in good faith."

He spoke in a heavy tone, his words laced with an undercurrent of threat.

Chen Lun turned his head, gazing indifferently at the middle-aged man.

Boom!!

Suddenly, his white-scaled right arm underwent a dramatic transformation!

It swelled and elongated, and in a fleeting moment, it turned into a gigantic white serpent, five to six meters long!

No... it should be called a snake-like mythical creature!

The dazzling, flickering white scales, like exquisite diamonds, lined up in an orderly fashion... On that ferocious yet supremely beautiful head, a pair of emerald-like vertical pupils showed no emotion, and atop the head were a pair of white crystalline antlers!

Its tongue flickered out, but it was like a web of spider silk, filled with the scent of Death.

Aberhard’s gaze sharpened, and he looked up, his expression one of bewildered shock as he locked eyes with the "giant snake" that had reared up.

In the next instant, the "giant snake" passed through a ghastly white apparition, swallowing Houston’s head in one bite!

"Ah!!"

Inside the snake’s belly, Houston emitted a terrifying scream.

At the same time, the high-ranking individuals present held their breath.

Because the one who screamed was not only Houston but also Aberhard, who stood by the side!

"Ugh!!"
