Antique Shop Zero: Disfigured School Beauty Becomes a Succubus to Pay Off Debts

Chapter 186 The Shadow of the Ark of the Covenant

Li Mingyue stared blankly at the thug in the suit.

It's him?

I once saw him at Chimelong Shopping Mall in Liancheng.

He is suspected to be an important figure in the Lucifer incident, and is under the command of Twilight.

The Bureau of Abnormal Affairs had conducted a citywide search based on the photo of the thug in the suit.

As a result, no such person could be found!

It's as if he's not a native of this world at all!

However, the young man he was carrying under his arm was found.

His name is Zhongshu, and he is a playwright for a drama club.

Li Mingyue did not send anyone to monitor Zhongshu.

If you do that, the other party is very likely to find out and will probably anger him.

The relationship between the Bureau of Anomalies and Twilight is quite delicate.

She really didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.

......

Inside Twenty-Four Middle School.

Jiang Chaosheng and Black God fought fiercely, neither gaining the upper hand.

The powerful winds whipped up by the giant scythe cut down trees on campus, leaving huge gullies in the ground.

Black lightning destroyed the building, and black fire burned in the ruins, billowing thick smoke.

Jiang Chaosheng, wielding a giant scythe, shot it at the Black God, slashing heavily down at his divine body.

The Black God unleashed divine lightning from his hand, slamming it fiercely into Jiang Chaosheng.

To defend against the divine thunder, Jiang Chaosheng switched from offense to defense with his giant scythe and retreated several feet.

Immediately afterwards, stepping on the rain, water mist bursts in the air like fireworks, and then soars away again!

One is protected by the rules of Antique Shop Zero, and the other is part of the supreme god.

Both of them are immortal and neither can defeat the other.

When Jiang Chaosheng and Black God met again, Black God's eyes darted around in their sockets as he gritted his teeth.

"What, what's wrong with you?!"

Jiang Chaosheng remained silent, his face expressionless, though a hint of excitement occasionally flickered in his eyes.

fighting It stimulates dopamine.

For someone with an emotional disorder like him, the intense release of dopamine is as alluring as a psychedelic drug.

The Black God increasingly felt that the "Human Emperor" before him was quite mysterious.

He could tell that the "Human Emperor" was not in good condition.

This is understandable.

He witnessed the death of the "Human Emperor" with his own eyes. If the "Human Emperor" were to be resurrected, it would certainly come at a great cost, and his condition would definitely not be at its peak.

But why is this "Human Emperor" getting more and more ferocious as the fight goes on?

Furthermore, their combat skills have become increasingly refined.

Am I just a giant punching bag, practicing moves with the "Human Emperor"?

That's... the Human Emperor!

Why would the Human Emperor need to feed himself the skills?!

Could it be that this being, possessing the appearance and aura of the Human Emperor's soul, is part of the Human Emperor's scheme in the mortal realm?!

Black God was careless and was once again severed from his body by the giant scythe.

Fortunately, he is immortal and his injured body can recover quickly.

Black God quickly retreated, creating distance between himself and Jiang Chaosheng, staring intently at Jiang Chaosheng:

"What, what exactly are you?!"

Jiang Chaosheng remained silent, but like a wolf with bloodshot eyes, he frantically slashed at Black God.

He was neither a bloodthirsty person nor a warmonger.

But... this kind of battle ...The exhilarating sensation of that rapid dopamine release is truly captivating!

The Black God raised his hand, burning with divine fire, and gripped the blade of the giant scythe tightly, roaring in fury:

"I am immortal, how can you kill me!"

A slight smile appeared on Jiang Chaosheng's lips.

A giant black serpent appeared from behind the Black God.

Suddenly sensing something, the Black God immediately turned around, only to see the Primal Serpent opening its blood-red maw and lunging at him!

"Yes, Lucifer!"

Black God's pupils contracted violently.

How could he not know that the Primal Serpent was Lucifer's signature move?

Lucifer... once my number one general!

Black God wanted to pull away to deal with the Serpent of Desire, but Jiang Chaosheng pressed on relentlessly, giving him no chance whatsoever.

"Well!"

Black God let out a painful groan.

The primordial serpent's gaping maw was already biting his left shoulder.

Black God slowly turned his head, meeting the primordial serpent's vertical pupils, which were filled with hatred.

Suddenly, in those vertical pupils, the Black God saw Lucifer's figure with his arms crossed and a mocking smile on his face.

The expression on Black God's face grew increasingly pained.

"Why would Lucifer submit to you! Author Peach Tree Bells personally recommends: 'I hope you enjoy the story of *Zero Antique Shop: Disfigured School Beauty Becomes a Succubus to Pay Off Debts*. Hypocritical... Pride is the original sin!'"

Jiang Chaosheng squinted.

He discovered that the Primal Serpent could actually harm the Black God!

That makes sense.

Lucifer is the strongest being in the Western Paradise besides the Western God.

The Black God before me is nothing more than the resentment of the Western God's human form.

Even though the primordial serpent he used was not as powerful as the primordial serpent used by Lucifer, it was still enough to harm the Black God.

It seems I'll need to study the methods of the Primal Desire Serpent more in the future.

The Black God's gaze gradually hardened:

"Human Emperor... Lucifer... if that's how it is, then let you all fall once more!"

The Black God suddenly withdrew all defenses.

Jiang Chaosheng's giant scythe struck Black God's right shoulder.

Black blood dripped from the sky.

Jiang Chaosheng looked slightly taken aback.

He was actually injured?

The Black God, bitten by the Primal Serpent, seems to be losing his power of immortality!

The Black God clasped his hands together, enduring excruciating pain, and chanted obscure and incomprehensible incantations.

Jiang Chaosheng pulled away the Grim Reaper's scythe and quickly retreated.

At Jiang Chaosheng's signal, the Primal Desire Serpent transformed into a streak of black light and appeared behind him.

The snake's winding body slowly coiled around Jiang Chaosheng, protecting his body, and flicked its tongue towards the Black God.

Such a fantastical scene has now appeared above the playground of No. 24 Middle School.

The Black God clasped his hands together, his eyes filled with madness, and chanted incantations incessantly.

Black blood was constantly dripping from both of His shoulders.

When black blood descends upon the earth, it stirs up a thick black mist.

Gradually, He bled more and more, as if it were raining.

The thick fog on the playground is gathering, turning into a substantial darkness as clear as water.

Jiang Chaosheng holds a sickle and is protected by the Primordial Desire Serpent.

The primordial serpent kept flicking its tongue at the Black God, its sharp, triangular eyes filled with hatred.

Jiang Chaosheng squinted, staring at the substantial darkness.

It was neither like a gas nor a liquid; it had transformed into a state never before seen.

It's somewhat similar to what physics describes as... a supercritical fluid.

Jiang Chaosheng thought to himself:

"Is this the darkness that devoured the evil crow?"

The Seven's method is to create this substantial darkness, and those who are tainted by it will be removed from the human world.

The substantial darkness quickly coalesced, transforming into a very solid black cabinet!

The cabinet is about one meter long, and about seven meters wide and high.

There is an image of an angel with outstretched wings on the top of the cabinet, and bracelets on each side of the cabinet.

A sinister smile played on the lips of the Black God.

"I thought that with my body, I could restore the glory of the Western Paradise today, after the fall of the gods."

I never expected to run into you.

So good!

Human Emperor, I have no idea what scheme you have set up in the human world.

but......"

Black God took a deep breath, his eyes widening in madness, and roared with all his might:

"Human Emperor! Your luck is terrible!"

Before you even ascended the throne, you encountered your... the terminator of imperial rule!

"To utterly shatter your scheme—that is the greatest value of this body!"

The cabinet door suddenly flew open!

Inside is a stone slab engraved with incantations.

Jiang Chaosheng looked solemn.

Despite having a reading disability, it doesn't stop him from enjoying reading.

I've seen this cabinet in religious encyclopedias in the library.

ark of the covenant.

Legend has it that this is the footstool where God lived on earth, the place where He met with humankind.

It must not be touched or viewed.

The deeper meaning of the Ark of the Covenant is that it is a sacred insulator.

If mortal impurities touch it, even with just a glance, there is only one outcome—annihilation.

Contrary to the legend, this Ark of the Covenant was not gold, but black.

Jiang Chaosheng paused for a moment, then muttered to himself:

"Is this... the shadow of the Ark of the Covenant?"

So, is the curse of the seven on the Spear of Longinus the shadow of the Ark of the Covenant?

No wonder they can delete everyone who possesses original sin.

The moment the black Ark of the Covenant was opened, it released endless darkness.

Darkness spread across the sky above No. 24 Middle School.

In just a few seconds, darkness enveloped the entire sky above South Sea City!

"Hiss~"

The primordial serpent flicked its tongue, dispelling the darkness that enveloped Jiang Chaosheng.
