Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 1157: Chapter 567: Ascend Demon_2

Clearly, it’s because many people fear hunger and plague, which has allowed these Horror Demons to be born multiple times until the fear is completely consumed.

However, for an overly powerful Horror Demon like the Insect Master, generally, there won’t be a second chance of emergence, as the condensed fear’s power is insufficient.

This indeed prevents Li Yelai from having to behead another Insect Master.

Champion Team One and the human reinforcements have been dispersed to various shelters.

The Imitative Heavenly Soldiers they brought relieved some of the pressure on different fronts.

Then, there’s the Doll…

“Are you saying a female human Horror Demon carrying endless fear has found her and fought her multiple times?”

“Exactly, last contact, I received this information,” Wei Jie said after a moment’s consideration. “The ability of that Horror Demon is the same as the Doll. Their battles, no one can intervene. Whether it’s the Horror Demons or us humans, there’s no way to interfere. Overlords wanting to provide support have been scared away. Just now, they seem to have fought once more; the outcome is unknown. Currently, we have lost contact with the Doll…”

Li Yelai nodded silently, somewhat guessing the situation.

Previously, there was a sense of the Doll’s ascension to Overlord, which even disturbed the Insect Swarm at the time.

The Doll’s Horror Demon lies within herself, occupied by the ‘evil corpse.’

Or it might be the Fear Empress or Loathing Empress…

Their fear power is no longer repressed, fully unleashed.

They have clashed several times, repeatedly frightening away the legions of both Horror Demons and humans.

Rendering interference or intelligence gathering impossible for humans and Horror Demons alike, and no one could discern if any victor has emerged.

This caused Li Yelai to feel a chill in his heart; can the Doll, who ascended to Overlord, still suppress that ‘evil corpse’?

In his mind emerged the gaze of the girl, filled with attachment and reluctance, as Li Yelai took a deep breath.

Of course, he understood why the Doll lost contact.

Currently, within the Disaster Fog, only she and Li Yelai can confront that Horror Demon.

So to speak, having completely liberated the Fear Curse, no longer repressing her incredible talent, and having ascended to Overlord.

She is an unmatched existence of the same rank!

No one in the Disaster Fog can defeat her!

She has the power to break through the Inheritance Land and defeat Li Yelai’s residual sound avatar, which is the finest proof.

Neither Divine Chosen nor Champion matters.

No one can simultaneously resist the power of fear and face the Doll’s furious output!

If she does not hold back that Empress Horror Demon, it’s uncertain how many humans might perish…

She must continually target that Horror Demon, preventing it from harming humans.

“Contact all shelters for me immediately upon finding the Doll’s trace,” Li Yelai instructed.

Wei Jie nodded repeatedly.

He naturally knew about the relationship between the Doll and the Champion.

Including himself, the Heavenly Pride gathered at Ten Thousand Dragon Lake have been overpowered by Li Yelai’s residual sound avatar.

Of course, most people don’t even qualify to see the residual sound avatar; the Heavenly Pride is just the threshold to meet him.

Thus, several young talents grumbled at the Champion’s unkindness.

Those with a bad temper naturally cursed loudly.

However, after the Doll and others arrived at Ten Thousand Dragon Lake, the curses diminished considerably.

When she became the first Challenger to clear ten levels successfully, those voices disappeared.

For this powerful figure is the Champion’s partner.

This caused the Heavenly Pride to secretly gossip, wondering if the Champion was not a wooden head, where did the partner come from?

Also, the Spiritual Ability Family contemplated how strong their offspring would be if this pair were to have children.

“Hope everything will be fine,” Wei Jie sighed, looking at Li Yelai’s tattered armor.

Later, Li Yelai found a warehouse and took out a large amount of food and medicine.

“The Hunger Horror Demon cannot corrupt food within spatial layers. You should have some space equipment; take it for emergency use.”

“Has there been an outbreak of plague in the shelters?”

Wei Jie nodded: “There has been plague, but it’s barely controlled. Our doctor’s ability is decent. Shall I invite one for a check-up on the two of you?”

“Okay. Better not bring any virus inside.”

The shelter for thirty thousand is crammed with fifty thousand people, too dense; if the plague remains uncontrolled, it’ll be truly troublesome.

Especially since Li Yelai just used the Eternal Chosen Face, being cautious is always good.

Time, in the end, is not on humanity’s side…

So, Li Yelai and the Little Mad King, after changing clothes and disinfecting, underwent a medical examination.

She was a mature woman wearing a white coat, code-named ‘Xing Ling.’

It is said she was originally a member of the medical team serving the Supreme Council of Ba Shu Mountain City.

Her spiritual energy strength is not high, but she possesses exceptionally high medical skills.

She is the top physician in the Mountain City, holding a position equivalent to the Epidemic Doctor Captain in the Border City.

To combat the plague spreading in various shelters, these physicians were escorted personally by Captains, even Overlords, to each area.

Because of their actions, the plague in this Dark Side Space was controlled.

Upon entering the room, Xing Ling quickly confirmed there was no residual virus on the Little Mad King.

Especially since she had just used the Holy Healing Potion, her health was excellent.

Next was Li Yelai.

Seeing Li Yelai, Xing Ling frowned for a long time, then turned to the Little Mad King and said, “Sir, I need to conduct further examination on the Champion.”

The Little Mad King glanced at Li Yelai and then left the room.

As the door closed.

Li Yelai asked, “Is there a problem? Am I carrying any virus?”

He was worried whether using the Eternal Chosen Face earlier might have spawned any virus.

Unexpectedly, Xing Ling did not speak, but she bowed slightly; as she did, her neckline revealed her full curves.

Li Yelai frowned, but she exhaled a puff of green smoke, from which came a ethereal voice.

“I bring greetings from the Calamity Plague Lord, esteemed Son of the Father of Plague, Lord Di Yun.”

In that instant, Li Yelai almost exploded the head of the woman in front.

Damned Eternal believer?

The top doctor of the Mountain City is actually a follower of the Eternal Life Faction?

As if doused with a bucket of ice water, Li Yelai dared not imagine.

If so, have members of the Supreme Council in the Mountain City already been corrupted by Chaos?

Plague, corruption…

Could it be that the Eternal Life Faction utilized the emergence of the Plague Horror Demon to spread the faith of Chaos?

Seemingly sensing Li Yelai’s silence.

Xing Ling’s voice came from the green smoke: “Rest assured, Lord, I’ve used a Secret Treasure; even that Assassin Master cannot hear the sounds in this room.”

Li Yelai suppressed his inner shock.

Coldly thinking, this is difficult to say; she’s right behind you!

The Little Mad King doesn’t concern herself with gender defense.

Not only towards herself, but she is also indifferent to others.

Even for any so-called examination, she stays cautious and doesn’t leave the room, rather hiding in the shadows.

Of course, she suspects Illusion Change might take the opportunity to steal Li Yelai’s blood sample, but it turns out to be a surprisingly happy circumstance.

Consequently, Li Yelai asked gravely: “Have you… infiltrated to such a level? Could it be the Supreme Council is already….”

“Not yet,” Xing Ling said, looking at Li Yelai, revealing some fanatical obsessed expression. “Soon, they’ll embrace the Father of Plague in a more graceful manner…”

“In the Disaster Fog, despair spreads. Only the Chaos Gods can bring hope.”

Despair? Hope?

You’ve stolen this line from the green flame.

Li Yelai thought, then asked, “Are these plagues your doing?”

“No, sir. It’s the power of the Plague Horror Demon. Although a lesser imitator, only we can eradicate its power,” Xing Ling chuckled. “And this is the demand of the Supreme Council.”

Li Yelai was moved.

It seems someone in the Supreme Council made a deal with the Eternal Life Faction, letting them eradicate the plague within the Disaster Fog.

Alas, utilizing the power of Chaos… this is the foreshadowing of stepping into Chaos.

Many people begin with good intentions using the power of Chaos. But the ultimate outcome almost always falls into Chaos’s abyss.

“And our goal is to hope you can in the Disaster Fog…”

“Ascend Demon!”
