Villain Cultivator

Chapter 627 - Dangerous Backer Of Olympians



Chapter 627 – Dangerous Backer of Olympians

Ares was one of the twelve supreme gods of Olympus. As the son of Zeus, he inherited his father's fierceness, bloodlust, and wild sides.

He sneered at Adam and Fu Daotian, "Two King Pieces are welcoming me at once? Seriously, do Fuxi and Nuwa have nobody else but you two?"

Adam scoffed, "We are enough to deal with you warmongers. Now, get lost before I obliterate you and your vessels for good."

"I beg to differ. You all are going to die here."

Ares laughed and expanded his Providence Law Domain of War God. Adam and Fu Daotian also used theirs and clashed against Ares head-on.

RUMBLE

A mild shockwave reached the chain network. The Demon King Castle shook, and dirt fell from the ceiling.

Miaomiao frowned. He flew out of the castle and stared into the sky.

"Someone is fighting."

Even though he couldn't see everything clearly, he sensed the presence of multiple deities and immortals in the void in the direction that he had been staring.

Miaomiao reopened his quest menu to see what Heavenly Dao had in store for him. He also checked the system feature.

Villain Hunting Mode

This system mode could pinpoint evildoers within your vicinity. Killing evildoers will net you positive karma points and extra bounty rewards, such as cryptocurrency tokens, Heavenly Dao Merit, and other goodies. Also, you can rob 10% of red-named players' EXP, gold coins, and items after you have killed them.

Heavenly Dao Quest: Preparation for Pangu Online 2 (5)

Villain Hunting Mode is exclusive to sentries, guards, and laws-keeping NPCs, including storyline NPCs. As the game progresses, player-killers, toxic players, and NPCs from evil factions will run rampant. It is your job to purge these evildoers and keep them at bay before they could terrorize the peaceful society of Pangu Online 2.

As you are familiar with Protagonist Hunting Quests, chasing and killing villains should be easy for you. Try to activate Villain Hunting Mode and get familiarized with it since you will use this mode very often in the future.

Mission Objective: Complete One Villain Hunt

Reward: 10,000 Positive Karma Points, One Heavenly Dao Merit Marble.

Secondary Mission Objective (1): Kill Ares, the Olympus God of War.

Rewards: 100,000 Positive Karma Points, One Knight Chess Piece, Ten Dao Stones.

Secondary Mission Objective (2): Kill at least 5,000 Olympians.

Rewards: One Dao Stone, One Heavenly Dao Merit Marble.

Miaomiao sensed a déjà vu.

Soon after he had first arrived in this universe, the system introduced him to the Protagonist Hunting quests and forced him to kill Xie Tian.

Now, Pangu did something ironic. He wanted Miaomiao to hunt villains instead.

Miaomiao had no problem with that. After all, Pangu's rewards were more generous, and the quests didn't threaten to terminate his existence.

Since Pangu had been kind to him so far, Miaomiao had no reason to decline the quest. Moreover, he was curious what a [Knight Chess Piece] could do.

'I'm Pangu's chess piece, so this might be related to the grand chess game. But isn't the grand chess game about to end soon? Why give me a chess piece?'

Miaomiao flew back to the castle and summoned everybody back to the dantian space.

He announced, "Zeus Army has arrived. Gather everybody in my dantian universe. I will head out and complete a quest, so you will be in danger if you're left alone. Oh, Tugu, Ta Dun, you two should hide in the city or somewhere with many people. Being singled out is dangerous here."

Tugu and Ta Dun reluctantly nodded and left the castle with their pets.

Kang Yan, Ma Xingjuan, Xia Fan, and others returned into the dantian universe, but one woman refused to enter the portal.

Wei Yuan gave Miaomiao a stern warning.

"Don't fight them head-on. As far as I can see, you're being overconfident because you can use Xu Chu's Providence Law Domain. If your enemies are women or they can negate the law's effect, you will be in deep trouble."

"Women are no match against my Dao of Bewitchment. Men can't hurt me, so I'm pretty much invincible in this realm. You don't have to worry."

"That's why I'm concerned. Everybody's ego naturally swells after they have gotten a bit stronger. You are not an exception. Tell you what, when I was with Hades and Persephone, they taught me that Olympian deities were no stranger to Providence Law Domain Combats. They crafted so many artifacts that could negate invincibility laws of their opponents."

"… Wow."

"That's why you shouldn't get cocky. Retreat if you can't win. There is no shame saving your skin when you are losing in battle."

"I'll keep that in mind."

Miaomiao got a wake-up call. He pondered and reminded himself of potential dangers.

Seeing that Miaomiao heeded her advice, Wei Yuan was relieved. She returned to the dantian space to rest and cultivate.

Once everybody was on board, Miaomiao opened the Villain Hunt Menu to find the first target.

A list appeared right away.

Name: Mu Yi

Cultivation Base: Intermediate Deity.

Role: Chaotic Evil NPC

Affiliation: Eden Garden Sect

Position: Grand Elder

Difficulty: Easy

Karma Reward: 100 Karma Points.

Name: Horus

Cultivation Base: 35-Star Stellar Constellation Immortal.

Role: Neutral Evil NPC

Affiliation: Eden Garden Sect

Position: Candidate

Difficulty: Extremely Easy

Karma Reward: 1 Karma Point.

There were over 10,000 people on the list. Some of them were the people that had fought against Miaomiao.

The detail of their realms or strength was limited. Moreover, the rewards were insignificant. Because of their cheap bounties, Miaomiao lost interest in them.

As Miaomiao needed higher rewards, he sorted the list so that the most difficult targets could appear first.

And he was not disappointed.

Name: Ares

Cultivation Base: Perfect Deity.

Role: Chaotic Evil NPC

Affiliation: Olympus Mountain Plane

Position: Great God

Difficulty: Very Hard

Karma Reward: 100,000 Karma Points.

Finally, a worthy opponent appeared. Moreover, the reward was generous.

'If I kill Ares, I can get 100,000 KP from the hunt and 100,000 KP from the quest reward. This should be an ideal target.'

At a glance, Ares should be the best pick, but Miaomiao had concerns.

Miaomiao's eyes fixated on the difficulty level.

Although Ares was 2-minor realms stronger than Mu Yi, the system considered him as a tough opponent. This was the first red flag.

Thinking of Wei Yuan's earlier warning, Miaomiao believed that Ares might have one of the godly artifacts that she had mentioned, which increased the difficulty of this hunt. This was the second red flag.

As Miaomiao hovered his finger over the choice, his right eyebrow uncontrollably twitched. The third red flag was in the air.

Three strikes!

Batter out!

"I can't fight Ares! But still…"

Again, the eyebrow instinct confused Miaomiao. He wondered why Samael tried to stop Miaomiao when the dead archangel had never gotten involved with the Olympians. 

"What are you doing, Samael? You have succeeded in guiding me this far. Why are you stopping me now? You never quarreled with them. How did you know that he is bad news?"

TWITCH

Again, his right eyebrow moved up and down.

Now, Miaomiao wondered if he could communicate with Samael.

"Let's do this, Samael. If you THINK I will die if I pick Ares as my target, raise my eyebrow up and hold it there."

As if Miaomiao mimicked Dwayne Johnson, his right eyebrow moved automatically.

After getting the response, Miaomiao was sure that Samael might have regained his conscience or consciousness, but he couldn't do anything other than move Miaomiao's eyebrow.

To test things out, Miaomiao tried another question.

"Samael, if you are still alive, move my eyebrow up and down three times."

Twitch-Twitch-Twitch

Once more, the eyebrow moved by itself.

"Good. Now that I've confirmed that you're alive, I need to know something. If you can predict the future, twitch my eyebrow thrice. If not, do it once."

Twitch

As Miaomiao had thought, Samael didn't know the future. But he was somewhat paranoid, or he wasn't confident in Miaomiao.

"Haiz. You're driving me nuts. Okay. Let's do it this way. Do you think Ares has something that can negate my ability, Law Domain, or other powers? If yes, twitch three times. If not, do nothing."

Twitch-Twitch-Twitch

"Good. Let me think for a minute."

Miaomiao closed his eyes and recalled the memory of Xie Tian and the karma memory of his other counterparts.

In most of the timelines, Devil hardly interacted with Olympus as he often incited the Jade Palace of the Jade Emperor, the Qin Clan, or Lilith into waging war against Gaea and Uranus. Thus, his clones rarely fought against Gaea's subordinates and the Olympians.

However, in a few failed timelines, Kishin Douji, who retained his old memory, proactively hunted Devil. The latter sought help from his former enemies, such as Eve, Gaea, and Uranus, and he had a skirmish against hostile Olympian Gods to prove his abilities.

Devil fought against Ares, and he easily defeated the God of War.

But when Devil fought against Hephaestus, he was one-sidedly beaten because of the latter's artifacts, which sealed the power of time and negated Devil's Providence Law Domains.

All weaponry of Olympians was provided by Hephaestus, the God of Blacksmith and Craftsmen. He was also known as Vulcan, the Dao God of Blacksmith.

The heaven-grade Basilisk King Daggers that Ma Moxi had been using were also made by Hephaestus!

Miaomiao opened his eyes. He had a theory.

"Samael. Are you afraid that Ares is using Hephaestus' artifacts?"

Twitch-Twitch-Twitch

Without telling Samael what he should do, he responded immediately.

"I see. I get it now."

Miaomiao returned his gaze at the name Ares. Now, he understood why the hunting difficulty was evaluated as VERY HARD.

Ares could potentially negate the power of invincibility of Miaomiao. Therefore, he could not confront Ares head-on.

Still, Miaomiao's finger pressed on the name of Ares and accepted the task.

Ding

<Ares will be your target.>

Twitch-Twitch-Twitch-Twitch-Twitch-Twitch!!

As if Samael was angry, the eyebrow twitching was so intense. The corner of his right eye literally danced.

"Calm your tits, Samael. I know what I'm doing."

Twitch-Twitch-Twitch-Twitch-Twitch-Twitch!!

Miaomiao grinned, "You didn't know what I have been practicing. If Ares is using divine-grade or myth-grade artifacts of Hephaestus and is capable of negating my time domain, do you think his karma threads are invincible? Do you think that only he has the godly artifacts that can cancel the power of law?"

Miaomiao patted the hilt of Killer Queen.

The twitching stopped.

"I have an idea.. I'm sure you can understand my thought."
