Becoming God Of A Dystopian World
chapter-83

Zhao Luo dodged the attacks of two of the puppets as a punch from the third one came at him from behind the second puppet.

'Woosh~'

Zhao Luo tried to dodge it but couldn't move his body in time as the punch landed on his abdomen.

"Ah."

Zhao Luo moaned in pain as he has to bent because of the force behind the puppet's punch.

"Slash."

While going down Zhao Luo brought Ifrit from behind his back.

The puppet looked dazed as Ifrit passed through like lightning.

"Thud."

The puppet fell after being split in two pieces as it's head fell first then it's body.

"Haaa."

Zhao Luo rushed towards the wo puppets that he had dodged before and utterly destroyed them.

As he had destroyed all of the puppets, 'Clap', clapping sound echoed around the silver space once again.

<Stage 4>

The 4th stage had started.

"LVL 4"

Four level four puppets appeared around Zhao Luo.

Zhao Luo who was surrounded from all of side covered his face with his face.

"Hah."

"Hah."

"Ahhh."

Zhao Luo started laughing like a madman as he rushed at one of the puppet while the other three were landing hits on his body.

This was what Zhao Luo had decided.

'i will take them out one by one.'

"Slash."

"Thud."

One of the puppets fell to Zhao Pup's sword instantly.

While it was falling, another one perished at the hands of Zhao Luo.

Just like that he had cleared another stage after taking care of the four puppets by sending them 'out of service'.

Two minutes later, outside the moonstone space where Zhao Luo was in.

"Look, he has already passed the NINTH STAGE."

One of the disciple ended his sentence while shouting.

He thought that the other disciples couldn't see Zhao Luo's progress.

"Shut up, We Are Not Blind."

Another disciple replied to that disciple.

This disciple was the one who had just gotten of the Ring. He had reached stage ten before he had to quit as he was heated black and blue by the puppets.

But the issue wasn't this.

'Its weird, how did he clear nine stages in only three minutes?'

That disciple thought.

It was because Zhao Luo had cleared the nine stages in only three minutes.

Just nine minutes for something that even their best, Ruo Qing couldn't complete in any less than twenty minutes.

While the disciples were looking at Zhao Luo in confusion, the guy and the girl around him weren't that much slower than him.

Yan was already at sixth as she had cleared the fifth stage while Feng Mei was at fifth stage, just a single stage behind Yan.

There was another notable disciple whose stage clearing speed wasn't any less than Feng Mei and Yan.

It was Mo Lee who was at tie with Yan as he was also on stage six.

*Back to the space inside the moonstone*

Zhao Luo was breathing normally as he listened to the *Clapping* sound bursting around him.

'Who ever made this challenge mist love getting clapped.'

Zhao Luo thought with a smirk.

<Stage 10>

"LVL 10"

Zhao Luo looked at the ten puppets that had appeared as the tenth stage started.

"LVL 10"

* Four Arms *

Zhao Luo noticed that there was this one puppet that stood out among the other nine.

Not only was it taller and looked more sturdier than the other puppets, there was an extra line under it level bar which was glowing with golden shade.

'Four Arms?'

Zhao Luo thought as he looked at the two words which didn't match the puppet at all.

"Where are your other two arms?"

Zhao Luo questioned the puppet who didn't live up to it's name as it only had two arms.

"Crea~~~ak."

The puppet roared commanding the other puppets to attack Zhao Luo as it also jumped towards Zhao Luo.

'Fwip, Fwip....'

Zhao Luo moved towards left to dodge the attack of the puppet coming from his right.

Then he jumped upwards while moving back towards right as he dodged the attack of the puppet which had attack him from left, while bringing down his sword on the third puppet.

'Crea~~.'

The third puppet fell.

Zhao Luo landed as he another attack was aimed at his head.

'Woosh.'

Zhao Luo bent his knee to dodge the attack by crouching instantly. Thus dodging the fourth puppets attack while moving towards the fifth puppet

'Slash.'

Zhao Luo's sword 'ifrit' sliced through the fifth puppet as Zhao Luo had taken advantage of his position as he leaped towards the fifth puppet.

Another puppet fell.

Zhao Pup didn't stop here as he turned around and slashed the three puppets that he had passed through while dodging their attacks.

"One Swing To Split the Hea...PUPPETS."

'Swoosh.'

Zhao Luo shouted while slicing through the three puppets behind him.

Continuing on this amazing momentum Zhao Luo only had one puppet remaining.

"CREAAAAK"

The puppet screamed in it's mechanical voice as something amazing happened.

*PLOP*

The leader of the puppets who had the * Four Arms * under it's name finally showed his hidden arms that appeared out of his chest sides.

"Hah."

Zhao Luonwas frightened for a second as the puppet got two more arms by suddenly screaming.

This was the first time Zhao Luo was experiencing something like this.

"I had only seen people increasing their hair length as they screamed but this is new. I must commend you for that."

Zhao Luo had to reminiscend the past as he praised the puppet who couldn't understand what this handsome human was talking about.

"Creak"

The puppet tapped it's own head with his arms as it sounded confused.

Zhao Luo could see a change under the level of this puppet.

"LVL 10"

*CONFUSED*

* Four Arms *

'Hahaha.'

Zhao Luo laughed in his head as he rushed at the tall puppet.

Zhao Luo swung his sword with almost half his power towards the confused puppet.

"Die."

Zhao Luo shouted as he brought down Ifrit on the puppets head.

"Cling"

Instead of going through its and spliting the puppet in half, Ifrit was stopped by the other two arms of the puppet.

"Creaak."

The puppet screamed as it opened it's arms pushing Zhao Luo away as his confused state had ended and it has returned to being normal.

Zhao Luo couldn't see the *CONFUSED* under it's level anymore.

"Why are you so tall? Are you a tree?"

Zhao Luo tried to confuse the puppet by throwing random lines at it.

But his plan backfired.

"Crea~~~ak"

The puppet screamed in anger like it was saying, "How dare you compare my sexy metallic body to a tree, to a wood?" as the puppet rushed at Zhao Pup and swung his four arms at Zhao Luo.

It was like being attacked by four people as the arms were coming at Zhao Luo from four directions.

"Three"

Zhao Luo said calmly as a 'Slash' sound was heard by him and the puppet.

Zhao Luo had severed one of the arms of the Puppet.

"Two*

Zhao Luo said again.

The next instant another arm of the puppet fell.

"One"

Another arm of the puppet fell as Zhao Luo slashed it with his Ifrit.

"Zero"

Zhao Luo said as lowered Ifrit after severing it's last arm too.

"Creaak."

The puppet screamed as he swung his shoulder but his arms weren't there so it looked like it was dancing for Zhao Luo.

"Hah, Zero arms, sorry but I have to end your dance career."

Zhao Luo looked reluctant as he killed the last puppet too who looked like the boss of the tenth stage.

*Clap*

Zhao Luo heard the clapping sound while he stretched his body getting ready for the eleventh stage.

<Stage 11>

"LVL 11"

*Sword apprentice*

A puppet appeared with a broad sword in it's hand.

The puppet was holding the big sword up with both his hands.

Zhao Luo was surprised as the characteristics of the puppet changed as soon as the eleventh stage started.

The puppet was using a sword while Zhao Luo was expecting something with six arms or two heads.

"Hahaha, you think the sword will help you?"

Zhao Luo laughed as he rushed at the puppet.

"Swing."

The puppet swung it's broad sword at Zhao Luo but the speed of the puppet appeared very slow to Zhao Luo.

"Swoosh."

Zhao Luo dodged it by spining right while he swung his sword towards the puppets neck.

"Neck Slash"

Zhao Luo shouted as his sword was cutting through the air with an intense speed.

"Swoosh."

Zhao Luo's sword passed through the puppet's neck as it fell to the ground.

"Thud"

The puppets head fell on the ground as it's body fell a second later.

*Clap*

The clapping sound was even more frightening than before.

Zhao Luo had to cover his ears because the clapping sound after every stage was getting annoying.

'Ahh why can't I clear all the stages together?'

Zhao Luo thought because all the puppets till now were very easy to defeat.

None had proved to be a challenge for Zhao Luo who wasn't even using half his power.

Zhao Luo looked at the bubble that had appeared in the silver space.

<Stage 12>

"LVL 12"

*Sword Apprentice: Wood*

A puppet appeared in front of Zhao Luo with a brown band around his head.

"I like the naming sense."

Zhao Luo made fun of the puppets name as the puppet in front of him had the word 'wood' after it's sword apprentics title.

But Zhao Luo didn't know that the thing which he was making fun of will turn to be an experience that will set him on the path of a real swordsman.
