Chapter 1400: Chapter 605 Why Does Your Mouth Taste of God?_2

"How are you feeling?"

Xia Hongmian spoke.

"..."

Lin Baici didn’t reply immediately, unsure of the intent behind her question.

Surely she wasn’t asking about how a God tastes, right?

If she were,

the answer would undoubtedly be: pretty good.

Lin Baici was already stuffed, yet he still wanted more.

"Pretty easy to kill!"

Lin Baici smiled faintly.

Xia Hongmian walked over, standing shoulder to shoulder with Lin Baici, gazing at the corpse lying on the ground.

Lin Baici’s muscles tightened instinctively. Though Xia Hongmian showed no hostility, Lin Baici couldn’t shake a massive unease.

It was like standing next to a lion—it might not intend to hunt you, but you couldn’t ignore its presence.

Who could guarantee the lion wouldn’t bite in the next moment?

To put it bluntly, being with Xia Hongmian gave Lin Baici no sense of security—a feeling of uneasiness from being a creature at the bottom of the food chain.

Usually, Xia Hongmian could perfectly suppress her aura, but today, with Life Essence spilling into the air, she allowed some of her fangs to show.

Like two jungle kings fighting over territory, Lin Baici couldn’t help but sense it.

"You did well!"

Xia Hongmian praised him, then her hands intertwined to form a mysterious, arcane gesture.

The corpse of Li Luyou twisted, shriveled, and began spinning, as though a black vortex had opened in its chest.

A few seconds later, the corpse condensed down to the size of a baseball-sized chunk of flesh.

Xia Hongmian reached out midair, and the fleshy orb flew into her hand, wrapped in a layer of black substance.

Snap!

Xia Hongmian grabbed the orb, and the distorted environment around them began to stabilize.

"Is your luck always this bad?"

Xia Hongmian teased him. "Taking a day off to visit Wanda Plaza, and you stumble into Rule Pollution?"

"Ever since I met Red Medicine, my luck hasn’t been good!"

Lin Baici shrugged.

"What’s your take on these Gods?"

Xia Hongmian asked, seemingly casually.

Not far away on the ground, a golden console controller caught her eye.

"I don’t understand them!"

Lin Baici’s voice had barely fallen when Xia Hongmian suddenly turned, grabbed his collar, and yanked him forward.

Swish!

Their faces were almost touching.

Xia Hongmian was tall, but standing next to Lin Baici still left her needing to tilt her head up to meet his eyes.

"Don’t understand?"

She smiled faintly, ran her thumb from left to right across the corner of Lin Baici’s mouth. "Then why do I smell a God from your lips?"

"I’ve got a Divine Grace called Shattering Gold and Breaking Jade. Things got heated, and I took a few bites out of it!"

Lin Baici explained.

Xia Hongmian nodded, released him.

"I’ll extend your vacation by another month—rest well!"

Turning to leave, Xia Hongmian stepped into the elevator. Once inside, she looked at her thumb—the one that had brushed against Lin Baici’s mouth—and brought it to her lips, licking it lightly.

A God’s taste?

Heh.

...

Lin Baici felt a bit regretful about Xia Hongmian taking Li Luyou’s corpse. Another meal, wasted.

[Be content. You already ate the big pieces, didn’t you?]

[You have to leave behind something to hand over to Xia Hongmian!]

[Truthfully, she’s already quite indulgent with you. Don’t act like she hasn’t noticed the golden controller is valuable.]

[If she wanted it, you wouldn’t be able to protect it!]

The Eater God remarked.

"Do you think she knows I can devour God Bones and Gods?"

Lin Baici asked nervously. Every time he met Xia Hongmian, she carried an air of mystery, power, and wisdom, as if nothing could escape her gaze.

The Eater God remained silent.

Lin Baici shrugged, unwilling to wait for an answer.

Actually, he’d gained quite a bit from this "Super Arcade" expedition.

He obtained a ring and three Divine Graces.

Alongside Steel Body and Storm Hammer, Lin Baici snagged a Great Divine Grace while devouring the video game God.

Its name: "My World!"

With it, Lin Baici could create games based entirely on his imagination and whim. These games could take any form—be it mouse, cartridge...

Whatever the medium ended up being, they would inevitably become Taboo Things. Anyone who played the game would be polluted, drawn entirely into its world.

If it were a horror game, the player would experience anything from mild mental breakdowns to outright death. If it were a casual game, it could serve as a relaxing escape and entertainment.

Of course, Lin Baici could even design adult-themed games. If he chose to, he could ascend as the patron deity of countless lonely singles and shut-ins.

The realism would be unparalleled.

Waifus becoming real wives would no longer be mere fantasy.

Lin Baici approached the golden console controller and picked it up.

This was undoubtedly the most important trophy—worth more than most Taboo Things. It was probably the priciest item Lin Baici now owned.

"Bai Ci!"

From downstairs, Big Sweet Sister’s voice rang out. "Where are you?"

Though Lin Baici had devoured most of Li Luyou, he wasn’t completely dead yet—hence, God’s ruins persisted until Xia Hongmian contained it, leading to its gradual dissipation.

Song Tian, safely teleported back to Wanda Plaza from the Death Hospital, was the first to return.

"Upstairs."

Lin Baici immediately began heading down. "Wait for me!"

As the elevator doors opened, Song Tian—wearing nothing but her underclothes—darted inside and hugged him tightly. "Are you okay? Did you get hurt?"

"I’m fine!"

Lin Baici grinned, patting her on the back. "Your clothes are in the nearby showroom. But for now, no one’s keeping watch—you can go grab anything you like from the stores."
