Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

He looked at the drone-like He Yun and asked, ”What’s wrong with your brother?”

He Yun’s tone was filled with excitement as he said,

”Do you remember the Spiritual Ability Activation Surgery? I once brought my brother to Hymn Company, trying to activate his Talent Area, but I discovered that his Talent Area was still short of the level nine transformation degree.”

”To make up for his final deficiency, I used many methods to stimulate his brain, simultaneously implanting detectors within his body to monitor if his status met the requirements in real time.”

”The Talent Area is the most mysterious region of the brain. The progress of stimulation has been slow, with time measured in years. Now, it seems like my brother saw something in Erin’s attack, which propelled the stimulation progress rapidly to the standard of a level nine transformation.”

Wu Chang stared at He Yi with the confused look of an old man on the subway with his phone, with question marks all over his head.

Huh?

No, buddy, others fight hard, getting stimulated between life and death to break through the bottleneck in combat, but how do you get stimulated to breakthrough just by spectating?

Isn’t it unreasonable? Is this the He Family bloodline?

Wu Chang shook his head, putting aside his ridicule, and walked towards the black building.

The essence of the black building is an Inner World; its exterior is similar to an orphanage, but its actual internal space far exceeds the scale of an orphanage.

Similar to the secret research laboratory he saw through resentment, the interior area of the black building is comparable to a small city.

The building features are complete, incorporating functions for training, transformation, research, and combat.

Due to this gigantic size, it can accommodate a giant dog ten meters in size running inside.

The interior of the black secret research laboratory was extraordinarily silent; aside from their footsteps and breathing, there was no sound to be heard.

The building interior was a mess, indicating a fierce battle had taken place.

Wu Chang looked around, finding traces of flames burning on the walls and ceiling, scratches and bites from giant dogs, and marks caused by many sharp weapons.

Some marks were deep and sharp, indicative of swords, while others were fine and arranged in a grid pattern, reminding him inexplicably of the nine-toothed rake.

Could it be that what this secret research laboratory is nurturing is the Second Senior Brother, and what was killed at the entrance is the Howling Celestial Dog?

The interior of the secret research laboratory was vast and silent, leaving others unsure of which path to take.

But in Wu Chang’s eyes, the blood pool on the ground up to the knees was constantly spreading ripples outward, with the ripple’s origin being the center of resentment.

He led a few people along the ripples and, a few minutes later, arrived at the building’s research department.

Along the way, the secret research laboratory was filled with traces of battle, surrounded by darkness, without lighting.

Upon reaching the core area of resentment, the place where it should be most affected, was now intact.

Inside the research laboratory, the lights were all on; the white light illuminated the white research laboratory, standing out in the dark building.

Erin and the others sensed something wrong with this scene, but in Wu Chang’s eyes, everything was even more bizarre.

In the dark, spacious building, a large white house was lit up; inside the white house was filled with blood, visible through the glass was a slender black figure curling among the blood and rotating slowly.

The divinity within the black silhouette was dense, and judging solely by the grade of the Divine Format, it was not much inferior to Amber, definitely a highly valuable Imaginary Divine Format.

The Bright Society did not store it away, but temporarily sealed it, perhaps because there’s something wrong with this Imaginary Divinity.

Wu Chang was preparing to find the core of resentment, keen to understand what had happened, when he saw He Yi pointing to a corner of the research laboratory and saying:

”Isn’t that a person over there?”

The silhouette He Yi pointed to was the very shadow curled up within the blood in Wu Chang’s eyes.

He Yi’s voice seemed to disturb the existence within the research laboratory.

Crack!

All the glass in the research laboratory shattered simultaneously, and the figure in the corner suddenly turned around, staring at them intently.

In Wu Chang’s sight, the blood filled within the research laboratory exploded with a roar, sweeping toward the surroundings like a wave.

Within the blood wave, the curled black silhouette gradually stretched out, landing on the ground.

It was a woman, small in stature while curled up; upon awakening, her body expanded to five meters tall.

She shared the bloodline of the Surface People like the blood-colored giant dog, only she had recovered better than the blood-colored giant dog; aside from shedding the deformities of the Surface People, her left half body had already recovered to an ordinary human form, only her right half body retained some traits of the Surface People.

Wu Chang scrutinized the woman, disregarding the half-body of the Surface People; just looking at the left half of the human body, she was definitely pleasing to the eye, even having a sacred beauty.

With this appearance and form, the obtained Imaginary Divine Format should not belong to the Second Senior Brother.

The woman swung her hands, and a Longsword appeared in each hand. Her eyes locked onto them as she spoke in a muffled voice:

”It’s you, you’ve returned, you’ve finally returned!”

The woman’s words sounded as if welcoming old friends back, with extreme joy, but the sharp killing intent in her tone made the joy seem odd.

Taking advantage of the woman speaking, Wu Chang had already taken out the All-Knowing Crystal, learning the name of the Imaginary Divine Format within the woman.

The Goddess of Death in mythology, Netherworld Queen, Hel.

Corresponding to Hel, the blood-colored giant dog dead at the entrance of the secret research laboratory should be Hel’s servant in mythology, the Hellhound Garm.

The Death Goddess Hel, though altered by some superhero movies to be Odin’s brother, Loki, and Thor’s sister, in actual mythology, her identity is Loki’s youngest daughter.

Loki, known as the Trickster God and Fire God, may not sound like a powerful god, but his three offspring were prophesied to destroy the world as formidable characters.

Hel didn’t participate directly in the battle of Ragnarok, but her two older brothers and servant have verifiable achievements.

The eldest brother Fenrir, in Ragnarok solo-killed the God King Odin, and the moon-swallowing Demon Wolf Hati slain by Wu Chang in Midnight Cemetery is its descendant.

The second brother Fenrir, nicknamed World Serpent, spans the world with its head and tail connected; the strongest of the giant race, its venomous breath can fill the ocean.

The youngest Hellhound Garm, fought the War God Tyr to mutual destruction.

Thus, Hel’s combat power would surely not be lacking.

And if nothing went wrong, the source of plane anomalies in the Underground Shelter comes from Hel herself, with the ability to affect the entire planet, absolutely incomparable to ordinary Imaginary Divinity.

Erin gripped the Eternal Lake, ready to face the battle again, but Wu Chang holding the Soul Cleansing Banner stopped her.

Having searched extensively without finding the core of resentment, there was only one possibility, the core of the blood pool’s resentment was still hidden within Hel.

Not only did the core of resentment exist within Hel, but through the Soul Cleansing Banner, Wu Chang also saw countless remnant souls within her.

”This time, it’s my turn.”
