Who wants to become a god? Aren't you all forcing me?

As Ma Mian predicted, He Lu grabbed the tree trunk, swung with force, and ran towards the signal flare.

If you encounter enemies you can't handle, the simplest and most effective way is to involve more people and muddy the waters even further. That's what He Lu was thinking.

As He Lu changed direction, the giants following him also ran towards the signal flare.

The impact of the two signal flares was more than just that. The signal flares of the Underworld and the New World had the functions of lighting, warning, and endurance. The range of light coverage was extremely wide, and the visible distance was even more astonishing.

For a time, countless aimless Resurrected Ones, after seeing the signal flares, rushed towards Li Chenqiu's direction, even Shen Yuanguo was no exception.

"Two fired together, are they fighting?" Shen Yuanguo looked dumbfounded.

The little brother next to him asked, "Brother, should we go over?"

"Go over and take a peek, see if the so-called Mirror Man will appear."

After speaking, Shen Yuanguo raised his leg and ran towards the signal flare.

At this time, Li Chenqiu was completely unaware of this, and was quietly staying in the palace, admiring the decoration of the main hall, and occasionally guessing the price.

...

...

He Lu was not far from where Li Chenqiu was, and in just a few minutes, he rapidly shortened the distance between them.

The outline of the Palace of Doubt was already appearing in He Lu's sight.

A flame ignited in He Lu's eyes, his calf muscles instantly tightened, and he sprinted towards the palace at an even faster speed.

"Come back!"

The large giant shouted in a muffled voice. The terrifying sound waves rippled in the air, approaching He Lu rapidly like charging cavalry.

"Leopard Form!"

He Lu shouted loudly, leaning close to the ground, his arms bent in a strange curve, like a leopard pouncing forward, his speed increased by more than fifty percent.

Even so, it was still not enough. He Lu was only at the First Restriction, and he was completely unequal to the giant whose strength was comparable to the Fourth Restriction.

The sound wave caught up with He Lu, turning into waves that crashed into him.

"Puff!"

He Lu's face turned red and he spat out a large mouthful of blood. His body somersaulted more than a dozen times, smashing his face into a bloody mess.

In this short while, the large giant had run to within less than a hundred meters behind He Lu, his hideous and terrifying smiling face was particularly frightening under the red moon.

Just as the large giant's foot was about to stomp He Lu into mincemeat, He Lu rolled away, narrowly dodging the foot.

However, only a part of him dodged. His left arm was directly crushed into a pulp by the giant.

The immense pain stimulated He Lu's nerves, giving his brain a brief moment of clarity.

Why was he so obsessed with a key, unwilling to let go even when his life was severely threatened?

In an instant, the name of the ancient city suddenly appeared in He Lu's mind - Ancient City of Greed!

At the moment of life and death, He Lu finally understood everything, it was all the fault of this key.

Just as he wanted to let go of the key, a small giant attacked from the darkness, kicking him away with a whip kick.

Bang... Bang... Bang...

Under this force, He Lu was like a football, falling and rising again, smashing shallow pits into the dirt. The sound of "crack crack" bones rang in his body like firecrackers.

Finally, after falling seven or eight times, He Lu finally exhausted the little giant's strength, and lay趴 like a puddle of mud ten meters away from the Palace of Doubt.

And the Key of Greed in his hand also fell at the entrance of the Palace of Doubt.

Looking at the empty surroundings, He Lu showed a miserable smile: "Alas, it seems I won't be able to go home for the New Year this year."

Facing death, there was no fear in He Lu's heart, only countless regrets.

Clang——

Just then, the palace door slowly opened, and a muffled footstep came from directly in front of He Lu.

He struggled to look up, and saw a young man slowly walking out of the palace.

The young man's eyes were like an endless sea, and his whole person exuded an unspeakable calmness and composure, as if the sky falling and the earth collapsing could not move him in the slightest.

He Lu's pupils dilated slightly, and he quietly looked at Li Chenqiu.

The constant escape and the high concentration of attention had already exhausted him physically and mentally. After seeing such a calm face, an unspeakable sense of peace surged into his heart.

Li Chenqiu walked to the palace gate, picked up the key on the ground, raised his eyes and glanced at the rapidly approaching giant, and then shifted his gaze to He Lu.

After seeing the blue sphere on the other's chest, Li Chenqiu asked curiously, "Are you from the An Tong Division?"

"Yes." He Lu nodded subconsciously, but he quickly came back to his senses and stared at Li Chenqiu and said, "You are Li Chenqiu!?"

Li Chenqiu nodded: "It seems that the work of the An Tong Division is also quite leisurely, and there is time to watch the entertainment news of City 11."

He Lu ignored Li Chenqiu's teasing, clenched his fists and shouted eagerly, "Quick... quickly throw away the key, those giants are coming for it!!!"

Li Chenqiu pinched the Key of Greed upon hearing this, and shone it against the red moon: "Is this one of the five keys? It's actually black, which is uncommon."

"Can't you understand human language? Throw it away!!!" He Lu shouted loudly again.

"Why throw away the key that was found?" Li Chenqiu put the key in his pocket, and looked curiously at the tall giants: "There really are giants in this world, but they look quite ugly."

Li Chenqiu looked at the group of giants, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit. The "thump thump" of his heart was getting faster and faster, sending oxygen to all parts of his body.

Fighting with this kind of big guy must be very fun!

That's the only thought in Li Chenqiu's mind at this moment.

"What do you want to do!" He Lu seemed to have noticed Li Chenqiu's thoughts, and his face was full of shock.

"I want to hold the key tightly."

Before the words fell, Li Chenqiu disappeared from the spot like the wind.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~

In the sharp night wind, Li Chenqiu rushed towards the large giant like a black lightning bolt without fear.

When he was a hundred meters away from the large giant, Li Chenqiu bent his knees slightly, stomped his toes hard on the ground, and jumped high like a flying bird, clenching his fist and swinging it towards the large giant's face.

"Get lost!" The large giant roared, and the thunderous sound made Li Chenqiu's head buzz, and even weakened his fist.

Boom!

The large giant's palm tore through the air, pressing down on Li Chenqiu like Mount Wuzhi.

Bang!

A gust of wind comparable to a level six or seven gale broke out from the center of the collision between the two, and the surrounding trees tilted to the side, and the leaves rushed straight into the sky like raindrops.

The next second, Li Chenqiu窜向 the Palace of Doubt like a rocket, smashing a one-meter-deep pit in front of the gate with a "bang", causing the ground to shake.

The large giant was not much better, a bloody hole was directly punched in his palm, and his fifty-meter-high body slowly fell backward.
