Playing a DPS Role with Absolute Defense-Chapter 179 - 177: Betting the Fate of the Entire Human Race on Su Mo!

Chapter 179: Chapter 177: Betting the Fate of the Entire Human Race on Su Mo!

Tu Hongwu’s words burst out, echoing throughout the entire Great Xia Star Realm.

At the same time, roars of anger also erupted from various positions in the starry sky.

"Then let’s fight!!!"

"Then let’s fight!!!"

"Then let’s fight!!!"

The roars were continuous, as if the entire universe was filled with the Human Race.

The Giant Demon’s brow furrowed slightly, unable to fathom why these seemingly ant-like weaklings before him were so full of bloodlust.

Normally, wouldn’t most races choose to submit when they saw them?

Even if they didn’t submit, they’d choose to swallow their anger.

Yet these people were like war maniacs, ready for a deadly battle at the drop of a hat.

Truth be told, if a real fight broke out, he could indeed annihilate them.

But he would also inevitably get hurt.

There are a total of 108 beings like him in the Abyss.

If he were injured, not only would his territory be invaded by other lords, but he himself might be hunted down by a coalition of other lords.

So this was extremely unwise.

Yet as the Flame Lord of the 30th Layer of the Abyss, if he turned tail and ran from mere humans, it wouldn’t just be the other 107 lords who would hunt him down.

The 12 Great Monarchs above would certainly be displeased with him.

Moreover, this time he came with a mission, and failure would not end well for him.

Earlier, he thought that as long as these people showed a bit of submission, he would immediately summon the phantom of the 30th Layer of the Abyss to turn this place into a battlefield.

Once these people were trapped, no one could stop him from opening the gate to the Abyss.

However, from their posturing, it seemed that the moment he made a reckless move, they would risk their lives to fight him.

They showed a stance of having no fear, even if humanity perished or the Earth was destroyed.

He even saw a keen anticipation in the eyes of the man who had embarked on the path of Extreme Dao.

Ironically, his target this time was Earth.

He wanted to protect Earth more than the three humans before him.

Because if the passageway to Earth wasn’t opened, none of the other passageways could be opened.

Only when all the passageways were simultaneously opened could the Abyss fully descend.

If Earth were destroyed, all of their prior efforts would be in vain.

Yet the current situation put him in a dilemma.

Staring at the three in front with terrifying eyes, he saw in the eyes of the man clad in blue a readiness for action, and the Giant Demon knew that if he didn’t speak, a real battle was imminent.

"Humans, perhaps we can talk."

Tu Hongwu stood on the Sea of Blood, the Blood-colored Treasure Tower in his hand emitted red light, and the enormous phantom of a blood-colored dragon swirling behind him released a terrifying Super God-level aura.

Seeing that Tu Hongwu had no intention of relenting, the Giant Demon frowned slightly, feeling an urge to curse.

These humans were clearly in a disadvantageous position, yet why were they so resolute!

Don’t they understand what reverence for power means? Are they not afraid?

"Coming here was not my intention, just some things I had to do. If you’re willing, we can relocate you to a better planet, how about that?"

Tu Hongwu remained silent, but his aura grew more terrifying.

"Let me go to Blue Star, I swear to the system and sign a contract ensuring not to harm any of your people, then leave immediately after completing my task, how about that!"

"Leave immediately, or fight!"

Tu Hongwu’s words roared like thunder throughout the entire Milky Way Galaxy.

The Giant Demon was equally defiant: "Then fight!"

Yet after both sides shouted, they did not engage.

In an instant, the entire universe descended into silence.

Both sides realized they were bluffing! 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Tu Hongwu’s side was resolved to fight to the end.

But if they could avoid risking everything, there was no need to fight to the death.

Especially with the entire Human Race at stake, it wasn’t necessary.

If their three strongest combatants died, the fate of the Human Race was predictable.

Better to let the Human Race perish in glory.

But the opponent clearly had a reason for coming for Earth, fearing either the Human Race or Earth’s destruction.

Though this was only Tu Hongwu’s speculation and he didn’t dare to be sure.

Perhaps the other side had other concerns but clearly, they had concerns.

The Giant Demon also saw through Tu Hongwu’s thoughts but was helpless.

He truly feared that if these madmen acted, they might do something disastrous.

At that point, both sides would achieve nothing.

But persisting in this standoff wasn’t a solution.

The Giant Demon awaited mission completion, while Tu Hongwu’s array could not last much longer.

Half an hour later, Chu Tian’s true form arrived.

Seeing this, the Giant Demon frowned deeper.

"Since neither of us wants to back down, how about a wager."

Tu Hongwu was still unclear about his opponent’s intentions and did not speak.

"We’ll both swear to the system, establish a gamble, and the loser backs off."

"What’s the wager, how do we wager, what do we wager on."

"It’s simple. I give you two choices: first, find someone who can take one of my attacks without dying and I will leave immediately.

Second, I will set up a Gold-level dungeon. If you can find someone to pass it, I will also leave immediately.

If you agree, I can swear to the system immediately, or else we fight now!"

As he spoke, a terrifying aura erupted once more. Even knowing they weren’t afraid, he needed to apply some pressure.

Otherwise, they might think he was easily bullied, and only under such circumstances would they make a choice.

The first choice asked them to withstand one full attack from him, and the three strongest of the Human Race were present, yet none could survive such an attack.

As for the second, who said a Gold-level dungeon was merely Gold-level? Inside were thousands of Kings, three or four Demigods, and a Divine Level shadow—perfectly normal occurrences.

And their challenger was at best Gold-level, nearly impossible to defeat a King, even if their Gold-level was extremely talented.

But in this dungeon, they would perish!

Yet upon hearing this, the three of them exchanged glances, seemingly sharing a hint of laughter in each other’s eyes.

Taking a Super God-level attack without dying wasn’t possible for any of them, but there was one who could.

And that was their disciple, Su Mo!

As for the Gold-level dungeon, Su Mo had already slaughtered gods, what fear would a Gold-level dungeon hold?
