Chapter 81: You're Still Too Kind
If a Hero gets injured, you just cast a healing spell on them immediately. That way, even if that Prince had heaven-defying abilities, he'd eventually be worn down to death!
Faced with this special circumstance, Beihai chose to go for the kill-steal. Who doesn't like stealing kills? Even in games, people love to do it.
Watching that Prince charge forward with ferocious intensity, finally breaking through layer after layer of obstacles to reach Beihai, he had passed all the trials and now could finally challenge the final boss!
Beihai was also moved by this Prince's fighting spirit. He decided that to defeat the Prince, he couldn't do it too quickly. Not that he wouldn't defeat him, but he would do it slowly, methodically, and with a plan!
Seeing the opponent's sharp sword thrust toward him, Beihai chose to use an Iron Mountain Lean, slamming his elbow into the Prince and sending him flying, even making him vomit bitter water. But that wasn't the end. As the Prince flew back, Beihai grabbed his arm, pulled him close, and delivered a three-hit combo.
Remember, the next part of the operation is crucial and quite difficult. You need to cast a healing spell on the opponent, letting him recover to full health, and then quickly beat him back down to critical condition.
A simple, unadorned series of basic attacks left the Prince lying on the ground, unable to get up.
That cruel, evil Prince was now lying on the ground, his consciousness nearly blank. After all, the pain inflicted on him was real. Even after being healed, there would still be lingering aftereffects.
In reality, the Prince had lost consciousness after taking the very first punch.
All the Heroes hadn't even reacted yet. When they finally did, they found it somewhat hard to believe. When they faced Beihai again, for some reason, they felt their noses turning a bit red.The anticipated cheers never came. Instead, everyone felt a bit awkward, not knowing where to put their hands, occasionally rubbing their noses, then giving an awkward smile and running a hand through their hair.
It was just like those cringe-worthy talents on Douyin, creating an unbearably awkward atmosphere. However, this awkward situation wouldn't last long.
"The evil Prince has been subdued, and he will certainly pay the price for his crimes."
"That's right. Killing him just like that would be letting him off too easy. I'll lock him in a dark room."
Beihai kindly offered a suggestion, and it was an extremely cruel one. A dark room is a form of mental and spiritual torture. Compared to that, death is actually a mercy granted by God, a gift.
After committing so many evils, to think he could just close his eyes, leave behind a mess, and escape any punishment? How could that be possible?
However, Beihai's extreme idea was quickly refuted by others.
"No, locking him in a dark room? How can you be so kind? He must face judgment from all the Kings and their people! During this time, he needs to be bound to a cross to repent for his actions!"
Some Heroes even came over, patting Beihai on the shoulder, speaking with a tone of grave concern. "You're good in every way, you're just too kind."
Beihai was the first to suggest locking him in a dark room, which could be considered the radical faction's stance. Beihai even felt a bit smug about it. A dark room is mental torture;
Beihai thought he was being truly evil.
But the conservative faction believed the radical faction was still too conservative. What kind of punishment is a dark room?
Better to push a rock up a hill, or use the cross.
These two punishments are the real torture. Pushing a rock involves rolling a giant boulder up a mountain from the base, enduring all sorts of torments along the way. Things like nails on the ground are minor, and you have to do it under the scorching sun.
And it's not over once you reach the top. You have to keep repeating this action endlessly.
The cross is even more impressive. Besides enduring the sun's blazing flames, the more important thing is to guard against certain animals.
After all, your hands are pierced with two holes, and your legs are bound. Some birds will show no mercy in their punishment, like searching for food in the other's belly. What they eat is quite obvious.
Animals are not to be trifled with. Remember, in the story of Cinderella, the birds directly pecked out the eyes of the three wicked women.
So, looking at it this way, Beihai's suggestion of a dark room is far too childish. In the eyes of those Heroes, it might even be considered a reward for the Prince.
Listening to those warriors chattering about those cruel punishments, for the first time, there was no sense of dissonance. Doing good deeds naturally brings good rewards. But once you do evil, these punishments give you the best payback.
The contrast becomes quite exaggerated. Doing good always has its rewards, but once you do evil, these punishments make life worse than death. Naturally, no one would choose to do those evil deeds.
It's a case of good and evil eventually receiving their due. It's not that retribution doesn't come;
it's just that the time hasn't arrived. Once it does, it makes you wish you were dead.
After the Prince matter was resolved, Beihai gained a large group of friends. This laid a good foundation for future events. If any major incidents happened later, Beihai could cash in on these favors.
"Everyone, with this matter settled, I naturally have other affairs to attend to. To be frank, the reason I came out this time was entirely because of an old witch."
"Her power is extremely formidable. I have been gathering my strength. In the future, if there is any news, you can inform me first."
These Heroes naturally agreed. After all, to be honest, Beihai had saved their lives, so they would certainly keep this matter in mind.
But at the same time, they also felt it somewhat unbelievable. If even Beihai found the opponent troublesome, then that opponent must be incredibly powerful!
Next came the farewells. To ensure his future favors would be valuable, Beihai chose to shake hands with each of them one by one.
This experience really broadened Beihai's horizons. When he returned, he found Elsa sulking off to the side, while Aladdin's Lamp was there trying to comfort her, transforming into a cat one moment and a dog the next.
Beihai walked over, grabbed Aladdin by the neck, and tossed him aside.
"What's wrong? Are you angry? There was no way around it this time. After all, it was a kind of war. I couldn't find a spare moment to protect you."
Aladdin, off to the side, pouted with a somewhat disdainful expression. Not being able to find a spare moment to protect someone didn't mean he couldn't have instantly annihilated the opponent.
"So, where are we going now?"
