Chapter 70 The Sin of Wrath

The giant toad smelled the bloody scent on the corpse and croaked greedily twice. Its tongue shot out like lightning, touched the corpse, and stuck to it. It swallowed the corpse easily, its deathly white throat wriggling as it gulped it down. Judging by its expression, it found the meal extremely delicious.

The ordinary citizens nearby, witnessing such a horrifying scene, immediately screamed and scattered. The giant toad turned its gaze to Fang Senyan, who was trying to escape. It suddenly lowered its body, and the glands on its back convulsed violently. Two streams of milky white venom shot out like high-pressure water guns, one of which struck Fang Senyan squarely.

The unfortunate Fang Senyan was knocked head over heels, but he immediately rolled back to his feet and continued running as if nothing had happened. He looked as if he'd just been drenched in milk. This was the advantage of the Stairway to the Sun. The only threat the venom posed to him was that it might drown him if there was enough of it...

Clearly, the toad was incredulous that its venom had no effect. It couldn't help but spray two more streams, but this time they both missed. The milky white venom landed on the concrete floor, emitting a sizzling sound and an indescribable stench. The innocent bystanders caught in the crossfire didn't even have time to scream before they dissolved like ice cream in a microwave.

With this delay, Fang Senyan had already slipped into the nearby subway station with incredible agility and disappeared in an instant.

The giant toad, representing the sin of "gluttony," roared in fury when it lost sight of its target. It suddenly leaped toward the subway station, landing with a force that shook and overturned several nearby cars.

The subway station entrance was a descending staircase. The toad flopped down the stairs, its tongue darting out to greedily devour passersby. Just as it entered the next level, Fang Senyan let go from the upper level and dropped down silently, sticking close to the back of the toad's head like a bat. His eyes gleamed with a fierce and ruthless light. The +7 West in his right hand shone, and he silently thrust the knife into the toad's right eye!

The sneak attack was incredibly swift, ruthless, and violent!

The giant toad, struck by a fatal blow, roared and kicked its two thick legs, leaping upward instinctively, trying to jump away. But this was a subway station! Fang Senyan suddenly saw darkness as the toad's back slammed into the concrete ceiling. Several tubes of soft, bright white light shattered instantly, and electricity crackled. Fang Senyan couldn't help but vomit blood. It was only because of his tough hide that he wasn't crushed to death.

However, Fang Senyan's nature was ruthless and tenacious. Despite the pain from the impact, he pulled out the +7 West, and a stream of ocher-red liquid spurted from the empty, black socket where the toad's eye had been.

By sheer coincidence, the liquid drenched a terrified couple nearby. They immediately screamed louder than dolphins, but a few seconds later, they realized they were unharmed. Although the toad's venom was powerful, its bodily fluids were not poisonous.

But at this moment, the skin on the toad's back split open, and a grotesque snake head emerged. It was the strange snake that the toad had swallowed earlier. The snake bit at Fang Senyan.

Fang Senyan didn't defend himself. Instead, he went berserk, his eyes burning with madness. He raised his right hand and stabbed it into the toad's ruined right eye! The blade went in up to his shoulder!

As he stabbed, he felt his entire arm enveloped in a slimy, disgusting writhing.

A savage look flashed across his face. The power of the Eater Beast surged and erupted, tearing apart half of the toad's head. A rain of blood, soft bone, and tough skin sprayed out, directly blown away.

At the same time, Fang Senyan was bitten on the shoulder by the snake head. Half of his body went numb for a moment. Then, with a flick of its neck, the snake threw Fang Senyan away, and he crashed heavily into the wall. However, the toad had been too severely injured by Fang Senyan's attack. After staggering a few steps, its body slumped to the ground and gradually turned transparent, disappearing.

Fang Senyan shook himself and struggled to turn over, lying on his back and gasping for air. He saw double images. He stood up, staggered a few steps, and went to the nearby restroom. He splashed water on his face, then gulped down some tap water, slowly recovering.

Within minutes of drinking the water, he broke out in a sweat, which was slightly black and foul-smelling. Only then did Fang Senyan feel the numbness in his limbs disappear. He couldn't help but exhale and say,

"That's some potent snake venom."

But at that moment, Fang Senyan suddenly felt an indescribably powerful threat approaching rapidly from afar. His pupils contracted, and he immediately realized that his worst fear had come true.

Without hesitation, Fang Senyan kicked the partition next to him, then rammed it with his shoulder, sending a large piece of plywood flying. Fang Senyan strode into the adjacent women's restroom, ignoring the screams, and crashed through the window, running toward the subway that had just arrived beside him...

However, just as he was about to enter the subway, time and the surrounding environment froze again. Fang Senyan was once again pulled into a phantasm by the arriving Cardinal!

This time, Fang Senyan's memories were brought forth. The memory fragments behind him slowly focused on the scene where he killed Xi Di in a rage before entering the space, followed by the scenes of killing Yiwufu, Hua Shanfei, and other ordinary people.

This time, the Cardinal judged Fang Senyan's sin to be "wrath" among the seven deadly sins!

After being convicted, Fang Senyan was surprisingly free, unlike before when he had to struggle frantically. As Fang Senyan was wondering what was happening, a whistling sound suddenly came from behind. He instinctively lunged forward and raised his left arm to block.

The block was excruciating! An indescribable pain shot through his left arm. Fang Senyan was sent flying back seven or eight meters, spurting blood. He looked back and saw a transparent blade, four or five meters long, floating in the air!

The long blade had a strong medieval style, looking simple, heavy, and filled with an indescribable bloody aura.

Fang Senyan looked down at his left arm, which had a deep, bone-deep wound. No blood flowed from it. The deathly white muscles on both sides of the wound curled back like the mouth of a fish, looking chilling. The wound showed no signs of healing.

At that moment, the transparent blade rose strangely and then stabbed at Fang Senyan. This time, Fang Senyan was prepared. He grabbed a nearby metal locker, roared, and threw it at the transparent blade.

The transparent blade didn't dodge at all. It accelerated and plunged deeply into the metal locker, then twisted violently!

With a loud crash, luggage and paper scraps flew everywhere, and metal pieces clattered to the ground. The invisible, transparent blade was simply indestructible. It twisted the metal locker thrown by Fang Senyan into pieces, then shook its body, and large balls of orange-red flames immediately ignited on the blade's surface. It swept across, and with a series of whooshing sounds, flaming wooden and metal shards flew towards Fang Senyan!

Fang Senyan rounded the corner. He had already learned that the punishment for lust among the seven deadly sins was burning in sulfur and flames, the punishment for gluttony was forcibly feeding toads, rats, and venomous snakes, and the punishment for wrath was dismemberment!

After seeing this information, Fang Senyan cursed a very vicious swear word, gritted his teeth, and scrambled into the adjacent waiting room, completely abandoning any thoughts of fighting back.

Yes, with such relentless attacks, even if he managed to counterattack successfully, he would only be destroying a materialized illusion. He would truly be exhausted to death. Moreover, Fang Senyan realized that the movement speed of the transparent giant blade in front of him didn't seem too fast, so he decided to "wait it out." After all, the Cardinal now had to deal with both Mogansha and himself. It wouldn't be easy to focus on two things at once.

More importantly, it seemed that if he survived all seven deadly sins, the Inquisition would impose the ultimate punishment on the sinner in history. Fang Senyan didn't know what that was, but he knew it couldn't be good. After all, his current task wasn't to kill the Cardinal, but to return.

Five minutes later, Fang Senyan was slashed heavily on the back again. Blood spurted out, then was absorbed into the blade! Fang Senyan staggered backward, rolled on the ground, and the transparent giant blade slashed into the pillar next to him. Fortunately, at this time, there was a commotion at the entrance, and a group of MIB agents mixed with police finally poured in.

Fang Senyan felt like he was about to cry. He immediately raised the medal given to him by the MIB, shouting and rushing towards the group in the pitiful guise of a victim, while the transparent giant blade pursued relentlessly! Without a doubt, the MIB and the police immediately pulled the trigger on the thing. Perhaps ordinary gunpowder bullets weren't very powerful, but the impact of the pulse weapons blasted the transparent giant blade backward.

Taking advantage of this great opportunity, Fang Senyan took a deep breath, suppressed the dizziness, jumped onto a passing bus, and quickly left.
