Chapter 138 The Virtuous Evil God
While waiting for the entry to be devoured, Xu Yi began cleaning up the battlefield.
He bent down to pick up the Saint O'Hagan on the ground.
The silvery Saint O'Hagan had become dull, and its patterns had lost their luster; the powerful magnetic field that had enveloped it was gone.
Father Nodin's secret technique had failed, and this Exorcism Holy Relic had completely turned into a "mortal object".
But Xu Yi still put it away, even though it had lost its exorcism power; a lean camel is bigger than a horse, after all. The materials used to craft this Holy Artifact were extraordinary, so perhaps it could be reforged into something "interesting".
Xu Yi also found the broken Dagger of Rest. This Exorcism Artifact was completely wrecked, not even worth reforging.
Annabelle floated down beside Xu Yi, with two finger-sized rat teeth suspended in front of him.
Xu Yi stared at the teeth, his eyes gleaming.
These were the surprising "gifts" from Ratma; as Ratma's body crumbled, his teeth that could possibly crush Saint O'Hagan had remained.
Judging by the shape of the teeth, they appeared to be incisors, emanating a captivating chill.
"This thing, if put in a game, would at least count as 'legendary material', right?"
Xu Yi tossed the rat teeth into Annabelle's toy treasure box; they were too precious, and he needed to give some thought to how they could be used.
[Entry Devouring Successful, congratulations, you've obtained "Hyper Accelerated Regeneration Entry Fragment x2"]
The system's prompt sounded, the first was a surprise.
[Hyper Accelerated Regeneration Entry, current progress: 4/5]
He was only one fragment away from obtaining the Red Level Hyper Accelerated Regeneration entry!
Because he already had entry fragments, if the opponent had the 'Hyper Accelerated Regeneration' entry, he would have a hundred percent chance of obtaining its fragments.
Xu Yi secretly rejoiced.
Logically speaking, during entry devouring, there was a possibility of drawing a complete 'Hyper Accelerated Regeneration' entry; he shouldn't be happy about it.
But you should know, entry devouring is a matter of chance, and the higher the level of the entry, the smaller the chance of drawing it.
Now that he had only drawn entry fragments showed that he hadn't drawn the 'Hyper Accelerated Regeneration' entry; getting two fragments was already quite good.
Xu Yi continued to wait, hoping for more entries to be revealed.
One minute, two minutes... five minutes passed, and there was no response from the system.
Could this be it?
Xu Yi's face darkened as though it were the bottom of a pot. Had he used up all his luck killing the Evil God? Had the Goddess of Luck abandoned him?
But that would be too shabby, wouldn't it?
A full-fledged Evil God and he had only gained two entry fragments?
Just then, the entry information chimed again, and Xu Yi instantly clenched his fists.
[Entry Devouring Successful, congratulations, you've obtained the entry "Evil God Authority: Theft of the Extreme (Red Common)"]
A Red Entry! It was a Red Level entry!
At the same time, Xu Yi noticed something different; previously, when devouring and obtaining entries, they had been "Blank Entries", but now this display was not there.
Could it be that Red Entries are different?
[Evil God Authority: Theft of the Extreme (Red Common)]
Stage 1: Incarnation of the Evil God (Authority unlocked, incarnation not obtained)
I am the Evil God, the power of the Authority transforms, and might returns to oneself!
Stage 2: Evil God Faith (automatically unlocks upon completion of Stage 1)
Stage 3: Nest of the Evil God (automatically unlocks upon completion of Stage 2)
Stage 4: Soul Stealing Seed (completion...)
Stage 5: Divine Transition (unknown)
(ps: This entry is a special one that can grow into a higher tier.)
Xu Yi had guessed correctly; the red-level entries no longer came with a progress bar, replaced instead by stages of growth.
Only by completing the previous stage could one unlock the abilities of the next.
"Another growable entry."
Xu Yi thought of Annabelle's toy treasure box, but his attention was quickly drawn to the phrase "I am the Evil God."
Equipping this entry was equivalent to becoming an Evil God, no, a reserve Evil God to be exact.
Could he, a dignified exorcist, actually become an Evil God?
[The "Evil God Authority: The Ultimate Art of Theft" has been equipped.]
Excellent! Xu Yi clenched his fist excitedly. An exorcist who doesn't want to be an Evil God is not a good exorcist.
If one could become an Evil God, who would choose to be an exorcist, struggling through hardships?
Most exorcists could only tremble in fear when facing an Evil God.
Moreover, this entry simply gave him the condition to become an Evil God; the subsequent choices were up to him.
After all, he had the entry panel and more choices, not needing to walk a dark path for power like other Evil Gods.
Whether a black cat or a white cat, a cat that catches mice is a good cat. The worst-case scenario would be to be careful when using the abilities of this entry in the future.
"My goal is to become a warm, kind, and admirable triple-good Evil God!"
The "triple-good Evil God" suddenly turned and set his sights on Bastet. He had just been thinking about how to "retain" the other party, and now he had a plan.
Bastet was still immersed in the joy of Ratma's death, its body, transformed into a Fire Gui, dancing ceaselessly. Due to extreme excitement, it could not maintain that dignified voice, instead, emitting soft and cute meows.
It suddenly felt a chill, as if targeted by some dangerous creature.
Bastet quickly turned around and saw only Xu Yi with a smiling face, a bit puzzled. Was it just an illusion a moment ago?
"Bastet, you were really amazing! Look at how scared that rat was by you!" Xu Yi exclaimed with genuine admiration.
Bastet instantly threw out any doubts in its mind, feeling a tinge of shyness in the face of Xu Yi's praise.
"Well... it wasn't too bad," it replied, not in its unusual language but in English, betraying an astounding ability to learn.
"Bastet, you are too modest. In my view, if it weren't for your benevolence, Ratma would have been driven away by you long ago, and this victory is all thanks to you!" Xu Yi continued to flatter.
"Am I really that amazing?" Bastet was starting to feel flattered.
"Of course, just think about it..." Continue your adventure at empire
Xu Yi kept using his flattering technique, and soon Bastet was completely disoriented.
After five minutes of incessant flattery, Xu Yi suddenly changed his tone, "So, the smart and peerlessly dominant Miss Bastet, how about joining forces with me?"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Sure..." Bastet replied subconsciously, but then quickly sensed something was amiss and eyed Xu Yi warily, "What do you mean?"
"Just as the words imply," Xu Yi said, "Bastet, think about it. You encountered Ratma this time and were almost devoured by him, wasn't it because there was no one to protect you? If you could..."
"Not interested!"
Xu Yi hadn't finished speaking before Bastet interrupted him.
As the Cat Spirit Holy Tree, it naturally craved freedom and enjoyed an unrestrained life—how could it possibly submit to a human?
"That's truly a pity," Xu Yi shrugged his shoulders.
Bastet gave Xu Yi a questioning glance. It was surprising that he took the rejection so easily without any further persistence.
It had met many people who would rather put a knife to its throat than let it refuse them.
But it suddenly realized something was off, and immediately turned its head towards the Cat Spirit Holy Tree.
Without anyone noticing, Annabelle had already arrived beneath the Holy Tree, and a purplish-red aura had suddenly unfolded.
"No!" Bastet roared and transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards the Cat Spirit Holy Tree, attempting to return to its original form.
But it was too late. The Holy Tree, along with the concrete walls of the sewer above, was swallowed by Annabelle's toy treasure box.
What do you think?
