Chapter 936: Keeping a Large Dog Without a Leash, Huh?

As the top guild on the server, the Heaven and Earth Society's efficiency in gathering items was naturally astonishing.

Before long, the unrestricted scrolls and the star brilliance rings that Qi Yuan had specifically requested were all delivered into his hands.

Immediately following that, under the extremely shocked gazes of those around him, he put fifty star brilliance rings with no Rank requirements onto his fingers one by one.

Looking at the densely packed rings on Qi Yuan's hands, the players who had arrived to watch the spectacle were so shocked their jaws nearly hit the floor, and they began to discuss fervently.

"Holy crap! Why can this guy equip so many rings at once?"

"Isn't this kind of cheat way too damn OP? Not being restricted by equipment slots and wearing so much gear at once—isn't he basically invincible?"

"I get it! One star brilliance ring increases the execution effect by 2%. So, with 50 star brilliance rings on his hands, the execution effect becomes 100%. As expected of the boss of the Heaven and Earth Society, he really is clever!"

"With a 100% instant-kill chance, he can definitely kill the final BOSS!"

…

Amidst the noise, a player soon noticed something unusual and couldn't help but cry out in alarm.

"Look, everyone! The attributes of the star brilliance ring have changed. There's a [Unique Effect] suffix added after the instant-kill effect!"

"In other words, this effect cannot stack. No matter how many star brilliance rings he equips, the execution effect will still stay at 2%!"

"It seems the Unreal Company discovered this BUG and modified the attributes of the star brilliance ring!"

"The cheat is useless now!"

As soon as this was said, the players present sucked in a breath of cold air. Their gazes toward Qi Yuan held a bit of pity and a hint of mockery.

"Looks like this kid's idea won't work. He must be dumbfounded now, right?"

"I told you! Even if a player uses cheats, they can't go against the game administrators. The reason his account wasn't banned is probably because he lost so badly last time that the game operators just took pity on him…"

On the other side, the two women, Qin Lingxue and Bai Xirou, looked at Qi Yuan with faces full of worry and tried to persuade him earnestly.

"Husband, don't be impulsive. The final BOSS is definitely not something we can challenge right now. Instead of going there to die, it's better to calm down first and wait to regroup in the future. Maybe a turning point will appear then."

"Sister Bai is right. It's just a game, don't keep trying to be brave…"

Facing the surrounding discussions and persuasion, the corners of Qi Yuan's mouth curled up. He unhurriedly took off the dozens of star brilliance rings from his fingers one by one, leaving only one, while saying with an unchanged expression:

"So that's how you want to play, huh? Well, I just don't believe in this nonsense!"

Then, he raised his hand and shook the star brilliance ring on his finger, saying nonchalantly:

"This one star brilliance ring is enough. Who says a 2% instant-kill chance can't defeat the Chaos Demon God? This Qi person's luck has always been good. As long as I can trigger the instant-kill every time, there's no difference between 2% and 100%!"

Seeing his confident appearance, the surrounding players all looked at Qi Yuan with expressions as if they were looking at a fool, shaking their heads and sneering.

"This guy must have lost his mind. How could 2% and 100% possibly be the same?"

"Triggering it with every strike? You can have anything in your dreams. Even if he were the biological son of the Goddess of Luck, he couldn't possibly be lucky to this extent, right?"

"Exactly! Given the nature of this game, if he can trigger it even once, I'll write my name backwards!"

"Don't forget this fellow is only Level 1 now, and his cheat has been restricted by the GM. It'll be embarrassing if he can't even see Rahu's face because he gets one-shotted by the Demon Palace's watchdog…"

Qi Yuan had no interest in responding to the players' mockery. Instead, he reached out and pinched the two women's pretty faces, saying coolly:

"Let's go. Take me to meet that final BOSS. I don't need help from anyone this time; I'm going to solo it!"

…

Soon, the news that someone was going to challenge the Chaos Demon God again caused a sensation throughout the server. A large number of players gathered in the square in front of the Demon Palace dungeon, while simultaneously turning on spectator mode, excitedly waiting for the show to begin.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Qi Yuan carried a crudely made novice iron sword and walked leisurely into the towering and magnificent gates of the Demon Palace.

As soon as he stepped through the gates, his vision dimmed instantly. Amidst the rolling demonic mist, a deep and narrow corridor was faintly visible.

When he reached the end of the corridor, he saw a giant black-and-white dog coiled in front of him. Its two silver eyes, like copper bells, were staring at him with bared teeth, posing as if it would attack at any moment.

"Howling Moon Celestial Dog (Demonized), Rank: 100"

"HP: 500,000 / 500,000"

"Strength: SS-Rank"

"Signature Skills: Celestial Dog Swallows the Moon, Soul-Stealing Roar, Nether Chill Domain"

"Description: This Divine Beast's mind has been clouded by the Chaos Demon God Rahu, turning it into a loyal lackey of the Chaos Demon God, responsible for guarding the gateway to the depths of the Demon Palace…"

Seeing the fierce-looking giant dog before him, Qi Yuan raised an eyebrow, feeling a strange sense of familiarity, but he complained with a serious face:

"Keeping a large dog without a leash, huh? The owner of this Demon Palace really has no class…"

Hearing this, the Howling Moon Celestial Dog felt provoked. It was instantly infuriated and roared with a face full of anger:

"Dog Master here is the dignified Howling Moon Celestial Dog. How could a mere rope possibly restrain me? Watch as Dog Master kills you!"

After a roar, the Howling Moon Celestial Dog opened its abyss-like mouth. A massive suction force immediately swept toward Qi Yuan, intending to swallow the opponent before it, sword and all.

Facing this terrifying devouring power, Qi Yuan didn't even blink. He threw the novice iron sword in his hand straight out.

Whoosh!

The longsword was pulled by the devouring force and was swallowed into the Howling Moon Celestial Dog's mouth in an instant.

Seeing that he had disarmed the opponent so easily, the Howling Moon Celestial Dog was full of pride. Just as it was preparing to follow up on its success, it heard someone suddenly shout:

"Wait! Don't move!"

Hearing this shout, the Howling Moon Celestial Dog was stunned for a moment. It subconsciously stopped its attack and asked in confusion:

"What? What's going on?"

Qi Yuan smiled coldly.

"Stupid dog, you've already been hit by my instant-kill strike. You're a dead dog now. Hurry up and die for me!"

"Huh?"

The Howling Moon Celestial Dog was first taken aback, then became fly-blown with rage, feeling as if its intelligence had been insulted. "Bah! What bullshit instant-kill strike? Who are you trying to fool? Dog Master hasn't lost a single hair. Watch me swallow you!"

As it spoke, it shook itself out, preparing to give the human before it a good lesson.

However, in the next moment, the Howling Moon Celestial Dog suddenly felt something strange in its stomach, followed by a surge of sharp pain.

"Awoooo!"

With a miserable howl, the Howling Moon Celestial Dog's entire body twitched as it collapsed to the ground. Its massive body turned into countless points of light and disappeared, dropping a floor full of multi-colored equipment.

Witnessing this scene, the players watching from outside the dungeon were all dumbfounded. One by one, they stared at the screen with wide eyes, their expressions full of disbelief.

"This… what's going on? It's only been one round. How did the Demon Palace's watchdog die?"

"Could it be that guy's luck really exploded, and he triggered the 2% instant-kill strike on his first try?"

"This is way too ridiculous, right?"

…

Under the incredibly shocked gazes of many players, Qi Yuan turned a blind eye to the top grade equipment dropped on the ground. Instead, he calmly picked up the broken sword from the floor and pushed open the dark and eerie gate not far away…
