After a brief moment of dumbfoundedness, he looked furious, quickly reaching toward his waist and in the next moment, drawing a weapon in a ready stance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But wasn’t this gear just a bit too sharp?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the object in the old guy’s hand, Fu Qian frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although compact in design, there was no doubt that the object had surpassed the category of a handgun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was reason to believe that if the trigger were lightly pulled, the astounding rate of fire would easily shred an ordinary person into fragments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, the old guy didn’t seem intent on pulling the trigger, just huffing and pressing it against the temple of the beautiful waitress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His other hand pointed at his own face, signaling her to dare to slap him again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the beautiful waitress was no ordinary person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing the imminent threat, Catherine didn’t make a move again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, her fiery red lips opened wide in an exaggerated manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The force was so strong that it tore through her mouth corners, jaw, and even her skull, revealing the stark contrast of red and white, looking extremely ferocious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, this mouth that had nearly a 180-degree opening swallowed the big guy’s head whole, leaving behind only a bare neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trigger pulled in a reflexive response caused gunshots to sound off like a typewriter, some bullets even grazing past Fu Qian’s cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under such luck, Fu Qian happened to be the closest to danger in the entire restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With such a scene unfolding, the lively restaurant descended into chaos without a doubt, yet everyone managed to dodge a barrage of bullets as if they were outlined by a human figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the danger didn’t just come from that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine, having swallowed the bald gunman’s head, encountered great difficulty due to the foreign object’s size.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forcing her throat to close, everything above her neck was torn and deformed, stretching like dough, while even her eye globes popped out, and a familiar black viscous fluid erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a blink, this woman with a voluptuous figure lost her shape entirely, turning into a mud-like existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, on the viscous black fluid, two patches of ghastly white teeth remained intact, looking eerie and sinister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, compared to its form, its speed was shockingly fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a furious strike, the head end streaked across half the restaurant, swallowing a coworker attempting to escape, leaving only half a body behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, a grotesque giant claw assembled from bones grabbed several people, forcefully stuffing them into its body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within moments, the well-ordered restaurant had become a vision of hell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surging black fluid had now targeted the only diner who was still sitting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What a pity.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sweeping the table with a touch of fondness, Fu Qian hurriedly stuffed a crab cake into his mouth and then faced the incoming giant claw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dodging with ease, Fu Qian’s left arm instantaneously transformed into an armored Heavy Fist with a black shell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, he didn’t back down but advanced, taking a step forward and unleashing a punch right at the two teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the force of the fierce blow, the seemingly impenetrable black fluid was actually shattered by the punch, spraying into countless fragments in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it actually be a non-Newtonian fluid?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that single move defeating the enemy, Fu Qian evaluated the feel of his fist silently, having gained some insight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are there too many Transcendents in this place to the point of being cheap?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“`The monster that Catherine had transformed into just a moment ago was of a higher Ranking even than the one who had jumped down from the rooftop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if not a Demigod, she wasn’t far off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the reason Fu Qian had chosen this place as his destination was indeed because of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason he had abandoned his car to go on foot was to observe along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as he walked, just about as he had expected, this strange and bustling city was filled with many beings of inhuman strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The very first moment Fu Qian spotted the stunning waitress in the restaurant, he realized she was not only powerful but also extremely unstable, on the verge of losing control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this discovery made Fu Qian realize that he might have found that gear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he decisively entered and sat down, calmly waiting for that moment to arrive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Catherine was the target but not the goal; otherwise, what would be the difference between all this trouble and simply killing someone?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking two steps back, Fu Qian glanced at the table and sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering the other’s inhuman size, even though he had been careful, a mess was still inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t possibly eat anymore, but despite his regret, Fu Qian returned to his seat and sat down quietly, waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About half a minute later, the space opposite the dining table twisted, and a person appeared silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a fully armed figure, not particularly towering in stature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An oppressive force, almost tangible, emanated from the Knight-styled Armor covering the entire body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A seamless structure, delicate patterns intertwined all over, each part shiny enough to serve as a mirror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was absolutely no exaggeration, for the surface of the armor was indeed made up of numerous mirrors, assembled according to a special pattern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dizzying sight at a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one who had just achieved a near-invisible effect was very likely related to this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, there was also the most important point: this was a Demigod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Name?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, a magnetic male voice came from underneath the Face Helmet made of triangular mirror fragments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Andiel.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the other’s tone was less than courteous, Fu Qian still cooperated and responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why are you here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other seemed to be trying to maximize the psychological pressure on Fu Qian, as there was no hint of emotion in his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why am I here? Heh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian let out a low chuckle; when it came to being enigmatic, he feared no one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was simply guided by the flames.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’d better cooperate!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This answer clearly did not satisfy the Mirror Knight, who responded by slapping his hand on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wood chips flew as the sturdy tabletop was pierced through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t care if you just saved someone or not.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have been very cooperative.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing the heavy-handed threat, Fu Qian replied while reaching two fingers above his head, gripping a transparent sharp blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This peculiar weapon had protruded from the old-fashioned chandelier above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But it seems you, on the other hand, don’t have much patience for conversation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“`\u003C\u002Fp>",1222,"2026-06-03T07:50:45.983Z","2026-06-03T07:50:51.702Z",1,"novelbin.me","4d8d134fe5fe38d64ff429d50aae915cb4d877ab94959316d9ddd32ad1d10c6d","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-834","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-832",2389,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffacing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-cover.jpg"]
