Chapter 601: Chapter 456 Extra Gains_1

"Come on, you scum!" After dealing with the Mental Aberration creatures, Zheng Yichen began to taunt the remaining Evil Spirits, who, without any hesitation, immediately scattered and fled, not even sparing Zheng Yichen a glance.

"Don’t run!!"

Zheng Yichen hadn’t expected these Evil Spirits to be such cowards; he immediately gave chase. Hell in this world was immense, with Evil Spirits everywhere and an even greater number of Mental Aberration creatures. But the Evil Spirits had no intention of fighting Zheng Yichen...

Even as Zheng Yichen relentlessly pursued the Evil Spirits, they only offered passive resistance, significantly reducing the efficiency with which Zheng Yichen could hunt them. This also prevented him from conducting a summoning ritual in one place, as the power of the Evil Spirits could also be used as part of the ritual.

As long as Zheng Yichen could maintain the summoning ritual and ensure it wasn’t overwhelmed, that would suffice.

After busying himself in Hell for most of the day, killing a significant number of Evil Spirits and Mental Aberration creatures, he achieved far less than he had originally intended, which left Zheng Yichen disappointed as he departed—a host of Evil Spirits eager to meet their deaths and those who fled upon seeing him...

"Now the Evil Spirits in Hell run when they see me. I had intended to wipe out tens of thousands of them, yet I’ve only achieved one-tenth of my goal. Do you have anything here that can drive those Evil Spirits mad, make them lose their minds and become frenzied?"

"...No, the intellect of Evil Spirits is high; making them lose their minds is too difficult, though such a thing would work on Mental Aberration creatures." Alice responded apathetically to Zheng Yichen, the Hell she saw through the Gate of Death was truly terrifying.

It wasn’t the environment, but the sheer number of Evil Spirits and Mental Aberration creatures -- wouldn’t anyone’s soul entering there become mere fodder for those beings?

"Then I’ll have to find another way, I’ll step out for a bit." Zheng Yichen shook his head, not far from Dusk, so a round trip wouldn’t take long.

Watching Zheng Yichen leave, Alice hesitated to speak and then looked at the multi-handed Heroic Spirit left behind. Ultimately, she opted for silence. Zheng Yichen might look human, but he had easily entered Hell and massacred uncountable times.

Plus, the unique Heroic Spirit he had created made him appear like a being who walked among Mortal Realm as an outsider. She was eager to discuss the matters of the City of Evil Spirits, but after Zheng Yichen described the situation there, Alice acknowledged her own limitations – it was simply not something she could meddle with.

"He’s gone?" Rebecca’s voice came from the side. The young girl had begun to adapt to her situation here. Dark circles marked her face, as if she had not rested properly for some time.

"You really should get some rest."

"? Rest, but I’m not tired..."

"Go look in the mirror."

Rebecca, who approached the mirror, was stunned at her reflection; she touched the mirror incredulously: "Is this me? Why have I become like this!?"

Her reflection looked haggard, her radiant hair now dull, not to mention the state of her skin.

"Your condition is due to prolonged exposure to Evil Spirits, resulting in their erosion of your body," explained Alice professionally. "The power of the Evil Spirits was maintaining the appearance of health on your body, preventing you from realizing any issue. Without the influence of Evil Spirits, your body is gradually revealing its true state."

The girl fell silent for a moment: "Can I recover?"

"Of course, you can. Just rest well." Alice smiled gently. Looking at her own reflection, her mood differed from Rebecca’s. True, she looked like an albinism patient, but with her naturally good features, the pallor, to her eyes, was rather attractive.

"I have some tonic potions here that could help you, though they are a bit bitter to taste."

Bitter? Seeing herself so haggard in the mirror, Rebecca thought what does it matter if they are bitter? Her priority was to return to her original state as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, Zheng Yichen went straight to the Dusk Cathedral and asked Tia to draw some of his blood to make lures. The effectiveness of those lures was so great that after having used them a few times in the past, he had refrained from using them again.

This time, along with his blood, he extracted a small portion of his Essence of Life from his body, which made the created lure skyrocket in value by a hundredfold. It would’ve been at its original price had he not used such ingredients.

Zheng Yichen didn’t care about that.

Having obtained what he wanted, Zheng Yichen asked, "Is the legend of the Great Evil God in this world true?"

Tia gave a precise answer: "It is true."

"...And the fragment I got, that’s real too?"

"That’s also true."

"What about the legend?"

"Legends are recorded by people, and records are written by people," Tia’s response was not as clear this time, but the meaning was roughly the same—the Great Evil God is real, but the legends are certainly embellished with plenty of artistic license.

After obtaining this information, it was enough. Anyway, it wasn’t of much help to the things he was planning to do next. A fragment of the Great Evil God, after all, was merely a side quest. If he didn’t address the source of the problem in this world, once the time came, the world would end utterly.

Afterward, Zheng Yichen went to a storage locker, where he deposited the medicinal herbs he had casually picked from Alice’s garden when he left. He also placed a USB drive containing information scanned and stored by Lilith.
