Doomsday Summoning Frenzy

Arcade does not believe in gods; he only believes in himself...

However, today, this notorious fellow named Arcade has finally been favored by dear God...

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Two sounds of explosions rang out, slightly weaker than before. Finally...

The basement could not withstand the continuous impacts, and the rocky layer above Arcade began to collapse.

...

The sound of "thud thud" echoed from above as Arcade watched debris fall continuously, and the long-lost moonlight poured down from above...

Along with it came the howls of two little beasts.

Although his body was already half-disabled, the sensitivity of the river of death to blood allowed Arcade to clearly sense that his "goalkeepers" had been abruptly taken to hell by the collapsing ground.

"Two little beasts got what they deserved! How dare they eat my flesh and blood..."

Arcade felt a sense of schadenfreude in his heart, yet at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow, like a rabbit mourning a fox.

To be fair, his current fighting capability was probably on par with the two bull terriers, and now they were crushed to death...

He might be next...

...

Arcade's worries did not come true.

Today was indeed Arcade's lucky day—at least, until now, Arcade believed so.

Sensing that there was no one around—Arcade, a wanted criminal in Beijing, was secretly imprisoned by Vincent, and Vincent needed to keep this matter under wraps.

Except for the two bull terriers, no one knew that Arcade was hiding in the basement of Vincent Manor...

This gave Arcade a chance for escape.

...

The rocky layer above continued to crumble, but it was not thick to begin with—Vincent had no intention of imposing strict monitoring measures on Arcade; the two bull terriers along with his virus ability were sufficient.

Countless dirt and stones came crashing down on Arcade, yet they did not kill him; it was merely adding injury to injury...

When everything calmed down, with the help of the bright moonlight, Arcade could see that the iron door imprisoning him had become twisted and deformed, revealing a "dog hole" wide enough for him to crawl out.

Alright, as for crawling through a dog hole, Arcade internally rejected the idea, but driven by the instinct for survival, he had no choice but to overcome all psychological barriers and crawl toward the hole...

A short distance of over ten meters was neither too big nor too small a challenge for Arcade at that moment.

Effort yields rewards; when Arcade finally crawled out of the prison using all his strength...

What awaited him was an even wider sky...

...

"I survived..."

Breathing the air outside, Arcade gasped weakly.

Without the stench of excrement and urine from the prison, the entire world suddenly became clear...

After resting briefly on the ground, Arcade's desire to survive once again overcame his physical pain.

Now, he had not yet escaped from danger. At the very least, he needed to crawl out of Vincent's manor and find a...

Sewage system to hide his figure well, so that he could plan his next move.

With that thought, Arcade felt like a worm, hiding in the surrounding greenery, dragging a dark red stain—he couldn't tell whether it was sewage or blood—underneath him, flailing his arms as he quickly crawled towards his target...

...

The shock and destructive aftermath caused by the Black Tortoise's strike had yet to dissipate.

The battle's aftershocks, resembling an earthquake, put several streets near the Inner City on high alert.

After crawling out of Vincent's manor, Arcade encountered no obstacles or unexpected situations...

At that moment, Arcade was very certain of one thing—if he could escape today, he would become the most devout believer from now on...

As for who to believe in...

He might as well see which evil god's doctrine aligns with his moral code.

Unfortunately, the unknown evil god played a big joke on Arcade...

"There's someone injured here!"

A shout came from afar, and his significantly reduced physical condition weakened Arcade's perception, causing him to be discovered first by a City Guard who looked to be only at a level three or four...
