Deities Are All Just My Food

Chapter 2479 - 1119: Grateful for Nature’s Gifts!

"He’s trying to escape!"

Wang Sen shouted urgently, wanting the God King to bring Lin Baici back.

This kind of death battle can’t be fought alone!

That would be too disadvantageous.

"I’ll kill you all, and then go after him at my leisure!"

The God King was indifferent.

True warriors are extremely self-confident.

Not to mention this God King, even someone like Cao Cao, with his power, could kill a person or annihilate a city with a single command, yet he could never make Chen Gong willingly call him master.

The God King shared this mindset; he wanted Lin Baici to willingly kneel, call him master, and serve as his dog.

Time had become too long, and the God King was bored to the point of explosion. Taming Lin Baici was like training a hawk—his next source of entertainment.

"Wang Sen, bring out the Divine Grace!"

Dudek saw through it.

Other than Lin Baici, the God King wanted no one else, so for everyone to survive, they had to give it their all.

"Do you really need to say that?"

Wang Sen complained irritably.

Thus, in Chaoyun Palace, the bathhouse kept echoing with loud sounds, causing the entire palace to tremble and shake.

...

After Lin Baici charged out of the palace, he paused for two seconds and then ran back inside.

He exited directly to deceive the King, creating the illusion of his escape.

Now, not only had the King not pursued him, but the intensity of battle near the bathhouse had increased visibly. This was exactly the development Lin Baici wanted to see.

This indicated the King planned to kill Dudek and Wang Sen first before coming after him.

Therefore, to turn the tables, he had to find the true corporeal form of the God within this timeframe.

Lin Baici navigated the palace relying on hunger, but as it was his first time here and the layout was complex, it made the search difficult.

For instance, right now, two doors stood before him, leading to different side halls, but the direction indicated by hunger was here, so he needed to decide which door to choose.

With time so tight, making one wrong choice could result in total defeat.

"Eater God, a suggestion, please!"

Lin Baici nearly never actively sought advice from the Eater God, but faced with a formidable enemy, he could only ask for help.

But the Eater God did not respond.

"Damn, left for male, right for female, let’s gamble!"

Just as Lin Baici was about to charge towards the left door, he heard someone calling him.

"Young master?"

If the voice hadn’t been familiar, Lin Baici might have ignored it, as it was the first time he heard this form of address and wasn’t aware they were calling him.

Lin Baici turned back to see half a head poking from behind a door of a nearby side hall not far behind.

A palace maid was hiding there, staring at him in astonishment.

"Young master!"

After confirming it was Lin Baici, the palace maid immediately lifted her skirt and ran over: "Why are you here?"

The palace maid had been rewarded to Lin Baici by the King of Palm Harbor, but since Lin Baici wasn’t royalty, she couldn’t call him Your Highness. As the title of ’master’ didn’t exist in the Human Kingdom, she could only call him young master.

She could have called him "sir," but Lin Baici was too young, and the palace maid felt that term didn’t sound good.

"I’m here to find something!"

Lin Baici spoke bluntly.

"Ah? Find something?"

The palace maid looked puzzled: "Why don’t you just escape?"

She already knew Lin Baici couldn’t defeat the King.

During her tenure here, she had seen several humans stronger than Lin Baici who tried to besiegle the King together, only to end in death and disappearance.

The palace maid never considered escaping with Lin Baici because she knew she was a Ruins Monster. As a human, no matter how pleasant Lin Baici’s words were, he was likely to harbor prejudice and disdain against her.

Crying over her uncertain future, she suddenly heard footsteps, poked her head out, and saw Lin Baici...

"I need to find a way to kill the King!"

Lin Baici’s eyes brightened upon seeing the palace maid: "Do you know where the King hides treasures?"

"Hide?"

The palace maid looked bewildered, because the whole world belonged to the King; why would he hide treasures?

Anything he wanted was just a point away, and a Great General would lead an army of hundreds of thousands to fight for him.

Even from the Land of the Exotic Race thousands of miles away, beautiful women, precious steeds, and sumptuous delicacies favored by the King would be brought back.

Realizing she misunderstood his question, Lin Baici rephrased: "Is there anything strange about the King usually?"

"..."

The palace maid shook her head.

Having nearly all the traits of a tyrant, the King had everything except lighting the beacons to summon vassals. With such features, what could possibly be strange?

Invent more terrifying tortures, kill more people?

"Does the King spend time alone?"

Lin Baici pressed on.

"This seems likely!"

"Where does he usually stay?"

"Soaking in the bath at the Chaoyun Palace!"

"..."

Lin Baici was stunned; the God’s corporeal form wouldn’t be buried in that bath, would it?

Then what’s the point of searching?

No, calm down!

Lin Baici took a deep breath: "From these two doors, where do they lead?"

"This side leads to Wanshou Hall, and that to Ganquan Palace!"

The palace maid had long developed intelligence, and her life level was higher than other monsters, so she walked freely in the Royal Palace.

The King, after all, was a God, not a true feudal lord, so he wasn’t particularly strict with those living in the court.
