Chapter 501 - 11.27 First Green Star - Haunted Asylum (16)
The contract was finally signed. The four following players are now bound to each other. After the singing was done they were prepared to finish this movie, unfortunately, even if they were to continue the game one of them was unable to join. After all, Yan Lou is only able to enter the game because Hei Anjing's resting room was created in another dimension. It would never affect the situation in the movie but once they get out of the room they would be able to return to the movie's location.
Yan Lou could only see his wife out of the door. An Yuan and Han Ya plus the rest of the managers had all already gotten out of the room but Hei Anjing was being hugged back with only his figure hovering at the space outside but his feet are unable to land as Yan Lou is carrying him from behind.
Hei Anjing could only sigh seeing his husband's actions. He knew that this huge vinegar jar didn't want to part with him but unfortunately he is unable to join the current game as the players allowed to enter in this movie are limited. Only 6 players could enter the game and adding one more would cause an error and the movie would no longer function so Yan Lou couldn't join his wife to play.
Everyone had been looking at this pair for another half an hour but Yan Lou doesn't seem to have any intention to let his wife go. Hei Anjing had always been extremely patient when it comes to his man and let the former hug and carry him while lingering at the boundaries of two spaces. Anyway, the space fissures did not affect him as he could control space elements to some extent. He is a Hei after all.
Everyone's thoughts at this scene: 'How long are they going to continue to hug!?'
In the end, it was System Yue who had convinced his lord.
[My Lord, thought Lord Hei wouldn't mind being in that position as long as he didn't finish this game role-playing, he wouldn't be able to officially enter the Abyssal City. As a newbie player, if he couldn't complete at least one game his soul would perish as punishment.]
Hearing the words punishment Yan Lou finally starts moving. As the creator of this world, he knew what would happen to a soul that isn't protected by the Abyssal world. Though he had the feeling that those things wouldn't affect his lover's soul. It is better to be sure than sorry.
And so he could only reluctantly let Hei Anjing go. He gave him a tender kiss on his forehead and said,
"I will pick you up after finishing this game. Enjoy, Wife~" said Yan Lou with a smile though he looks so hesitant to be apart from him.
Such a cutie, Hei Anjing gave him a fleeting kiss on the corner of his lips and pushed him back inside the room. With a playful smile on his face, Hei Anjing winked as a farewell to his husband. Within the room, Chu Mo stood on stand-by as soon as he returned. He could only bow his head to the direction of Hei Anjing to show his respect to the other lord.
Hei Anjing said, "Make sure you can pick me up, My love~"
BANG!
As the door to that other-dimensional room closed, everything in the Haunted Asylum had returned to normal. They were now at the staircase going to the fourth floor.
Hei Anjing spoke, "Pardon him for me. He has always been like that."
Manager Gou whispered, '[Always like that? That's Abyss. The cruel and cold-blooded human player that kills both humans and abyssal monsters without distinction. Many boss monsters fear him as he always kills them for gold coins. He never smiled and had always been alone.
But what the hell did I see just now? Throwing tantrums? Acting like a child? Is he still the same Abyss we knew!? Fuck! Just who the hell is this Hei Anjing!?]'
Sui Rou covered the mouth of her manager and said, "Speak less. I don't want to die yet."
Only then did Manager Gou notice Hei Anjing looking at them with his usual mischievous smile on his beautiful face. Manager Gou, this little wolf couldn't help but shiver under that gaze. Only when Hei Anjing averted his eyes and moved it on An Yuan that Manager Gou felt relief.
Shivers~
Hei Anjing spoke, "We are about to reach the boss room. So you should prepare your props to record the NPC boss. By the way, how long do you need to record her?"
"Hm, 15 minutes should do. But... I don't know if we can fight her without dying at that time." answered Professor An Yuan.
Hei Anjing said, "There is no need to worry about that. Xiao Han and Sui Rou would fight with it for 15 minutes for you. Just take your time recording it."
Han Ya said, "Leave it to me, A'Yuan."
"15 minutes should be fine but as promised... The NPC boss' life is mine to take," said Sui Rou.
An Yuan smiled and said, "Yes, the Boss NPC is all yours." Then he moved his gaze in the direction where he heard Hei Anjing's voice and asked, "What about you Sir Hei? What will you be doing?"
"Well~ keeping you three alive should be enough. I've already fought her once and got bored of it. The rest should be done but you guys. My main mission is complete already."
System Yang spoke, [That's right. Master had completed his main mission and some sub-mission. He can leave anytime but decided to stay here to keep you guys alive.]
The other three players were speechless. This little sun, manager of Player Hei never minces his words.
An Yuan said, "Then let's go." as he held Han Ya's hands as usual.
"Um~" Han Ya grips his hand back and once again escorts on the way. This pair leads the group. Sui Rou glanced at Hei Anjing and followed the two in front of her. It is better to walk near these two weird newbies than the last one who is a lot more dangerous than a real killer. Hei Anjing followed them and stayed in the rear, securing their safety from behind. He had a conversation with his System.
Hei Anjing asked, "Yang, how's my husband?"
[He's sulking. After you closed the door he was in the bad mood and almost beat up Warden Lou who tried to stop him from following you. Then Yue'er had teleported them back to their original location.]
Sigh~
"Let's finish the things here soon. Send a message to him at the next location. But since the shared contract was signed the punishment would be applicable even if one of the players had failed to join the game right? We need 3 complete main missions in this game as my love of not being here is considered as a failed mission. We need to complete 3 of 4 main missions. I and the little professor can complete it but... The one who took over Han Ya came late and the original Han Ya had already failed his main mission. So regardless of whether the protagonist shou could complete his main mission or not it would cost our group to suffer the punishment with the protagonist gong. Hehehe~" whispered Hei Anjing.
[Master, you intentionally didn't mention that to those two on purpose right?]
Hei Anjing has an entertained smile on his face and said, "Wouldn't it be fun to see how can he protect his fated one surrounded by players who are no different from being a murderer who kills for fun~"
[I think the master just wants to play more wildly in the insane mode.]
"Well~ that's also right? I heard that the insane mode is much more fun than regular games," murmured Hei Anjing.
The group of four players and managers had climbed up the stairs moving on to the final stage of the game. The said cursed room 402 where the Boss NPC is said to live.
---
After Yan Lou had separated from his wife, System Yue had teleported him back to the original room where he had been admitted in the same hospital yet in a different dimension. He was still in a bad mood after he sent his wife away to play his games. He had already asked System Yue multiple times if he could crash in the Haunted Asylum Movie but received the same answer that he couldn't interfere with it.
He could just destroy the game itself but that would mean he would be destroying the toys his wife had found. If he really does so then Hei Anjing would definitely get angry with him. So he could only sulk on his bed and opened the interface that shows his wife's channel.
Since they had signed a shared platform as a group, opening the channel allowed Yan Lou to see the members under the shared contract. On his platform, he could see Han Ya and An Yuan blocking his wife's perspective and was about to explode in rage once again.
Yan Lou, "Tsk! Why are they blocking my wife? I don't care about this shitty couple. Let me see my wife!!!"
[My Lord calm down. You can control whose point of view you want to see. Here, choose Lord Hei's perspective.]
System Yue had to manipulate the whole platform for the fuming Lord God. Only when he saw his wife's image in the holographic video in front of him did he finally calm down.
The picture is clearer than before. This is because Hei Anjing's channel had lots of views more than other players. Because of that, the Abyssal World is more biased toward him than the other players.
Lightly caressing the face of Hei Anjing on the recording, he once again started missing him already. He didn't understand his yearning for this human. He just felt that he was meant to be his and should never be away from his side.
Yan Lou spoke, "I can bear it for one game. As for the rest of your time, you should spend it by my side, my wife~"
Standing by the side are Chu Mo and System Yue. They could never interfere with the relationship between their bosses. They were only there to follow their orders. But the Warden is getting worried as his lover got separated from their group.
System Yang informed them about Lord Hei's plan to enter the punishment game, which is an insane mode that most players try to avoid. This is a punishment system that the Abyssal world uses to the losing gamers. They would be thrown into this crazy mode and would have to do everything by any means to escape from there.
Insane mode. Just by hearing it alone stays that this type of game would put lives in danger. Moreover, in this punishment game, the concept of death is true. Dying in this game mode would mean one would completely get their souls perished. The soul would be erased forever and they would never be able to enter reincarnation.
His kind of game which puts lives on the line is thrilling and terrifying and only someone like Hei Anjing would love this kind of game mode. As the God of Destruction, he is closer to negative energies than positive ones. He loves blood and death. Things like these are extremely entertaining for him.
On the other hand, Yan Lou or Ye Xiajie is formerly the God of Void. He is also the God of Darkness. These kinds of things would never affect him. But he would be so willing to accompany his crazy wife to play around, indulging him the whole time.
The Warden and System Yue could only shake their heads helplessly. They were only here to look for the Lord God's soul fragments which were already found. But even if the Lord God, Ye Xiajie, is awake or not his actions of solely pampering his wife to the heavens would never change.
[If I told the Lord God about Lord Hei's plan of entering the punishment game after this movie he would definitely not hesitate to follow right?]
Chu Mo's lips twitched and replied, "Maybe I should go now and make plans with Ming'er to enter the massacre mode together."
[Get going then. I will tell the Lord about your departure. Well at this moment he wouldn't care about us or the others. He even didn't recognize his former general who had to change his skin.]
"Then I will leave it to you. Maybe I should ask the boss to upgrade the contract to intermediate and sign it together with Ming'er," said Chu Mo.
[I will also inform the boss. Maybe when he is no longer glaring at the screen just because he misses Lord Hei. Sigh~ wouldn't things be worse if Lord God's main soul woke up as well.]
The two subordinates of the Lord God recall the scene of their Lord God's possessiveness. He would definitely not allow anyone to approach Lord Hei when he woke up. Even that pair of protagonists would not be spared.
Sigh~ "Worry it when the time comes. I'm going to see my honey instead." said Chu Mo.
[Sure. Sure. Go ahead.]
WHOOSH!
The Executioner, Chu Mo had suddenly pulled a teleportation talisman. He disappeared on the spot and System Yue couldn't help but peek at their Lord God. As expected he didn't even notice his subordinate suddenly leaving, his all focus was on the screen where the appearance of Lord Hei is being shown.
Yan Lou murmured, "What the hell? Why are making my wife look after the blind man!? That's your partner, stay away from my wife!!" He is scolding Han Ya as he watches the man ask Hei Anjing to protect An Yuan who was holding a camera in his hands.
[Lord, calm down. You are acting like crazy fan!]
