"It feels pretty la," said Zheng Yichen, sitting on the motorcycle, slightly annoyed by the soul stored in the fishing rod.
The souls provided by ntal Aberration creatures weren’t abundant, making Zheng Yichen feel like he had made a bad deal.
You see, normal souls are wrapped around by special powers, whereas Evil Spirits and ntal Aberration creatures are the reverse—power wraps the soul, and that power related to the mind is their body.
To collect the souls of these beings, Zheng Yichen had to first shatter their bodies, dispersing most of their power, before he could get to the actual soul.
The soul of the ntal Aberration creature he had killed, compared to its body mass, was about a hundred to one in ratio; the soul wasn’t strong, only the powers related to the mind were formidable.
The bug clusters produced by the ntal Aberration creature also had souls, but they were so weak they’d perish on exposure to light; without the protection of the ’ntal body,’ they would disperse on contact with the normal environnt, leaving only fragnts.
ntal Aberration creatures and Evil Spirits are also a kind of ’being,’ unlike normal souls which would be subdued and absorbed by the power of the Soul-Subduing magic stone when touched by the fishing rod. When the fishing rod touches an Evil Spirit, it’s like striking a person.
They have to be ’killed’ before their souls are exposed.
"Feeding Evil Spirits or ntal Aberration creatures seems unworkable, but since Hell in this world isn’t that chaotic, I don’t think feeding is necessary. Let’s just go on a killing spree in Hell, what do you think?"
"Boss, you call the shots," Lilith, sitting on Zheng Yichen’s shoulder, responded very standardly. As an Artificial Intelligence, she was there to assist Zheng Yichen, not to make decisions for him—she could at most offer suggestions on so matters.
And she would only do so if Zheng Yichen was courting death or preparing to—I an, if Zheng Yichen didn’t intend to take her advice, Lilith would still go along with his choice.
Collecting souls in Hell wasn’t courting death for Zheng Yichen; his body could adapt to the environnt of Hell, surviving there with ease for a long ti, and even if he was seriously injured, he could transform into a kind of living dead state.
Those Evil Spirits and ntal Aberration creatures were no match for her boss.
"Let’s go then."
When Zheng Yichen ripped open a Gate of Death, the fresh air of the Mortal Realm quickly drew in a horde of Evil Spirits and ntal Aberration creatures. Before they could charge at him, his motorcycle crashed through the gate, running over a ntal Aberration creature. The high-speed rotation of the wheels made the creature howl.
Then Zheng Yichen put a bullet through its head with one shot, and only after its body was shattered did the fishing rod absorb the creature’s soul.
The Gate of Death closed behind him, and a throng of ntal Aberration creatures began howling at Zheng Yichen, a human whose vitality was like a blazing furnace.
They attacked him recklessly, and Zheng Yichen gave his motorcycle a pat. Lilith activated an Interference Field that combined interference, disassembly, and energy disruption, blurring the bodies of the ntal Aberration creatures.
And though it couldn’t instantly kill them, it rapidly weakened them. Once their bodies were sufficiently disintegrated, the souls wrapped in mutated ntal power would be extracted by the fishing rod’s Soul Extraction.
Zheng Yichen couldn’t be bothered with precise attacks. He’d strike, and if the creature’s soul remained, it would be extracted; if the soul shattered into fragnts, he wouldn’t waste them either.
Half an hour later, the assault from nearby ntal Aberration creatures started to falter. The area was cleared, and the remaining Evil Spirits kept a wary eye on Zheng Yichen.
"Human! There’s no need for us to fight! We can cooperate!" pleaded an Evil Spirit pushed forward, approaching Zheng Yichen reluctantly, "Help us leave this place, and we can give you everything you want!"
"Not interested. I’d rather have your lives than that kind of everything," Zheng Yichen replied bluntly, giving no chance for the Evil Spirits to blather. Soul control powers spread out from him, but since beings like Evil Spirits were akin to ’living things,’ the effect of soul control wasn’t strong, though it could still suppress them.
At the sa ti, Lilith intensified the Interference Field.
Outside the field, the Evil Spirits scattered. This human was more than they could handle, their souls extracted by Zheng Yichen’s swift actions.
Soul-wise, Evil Spirits were stronger than ntal Aberration creatures, but against Zheng Yichen, they still fell short. Those who managed to flee watched him from a distance; the Evil Spirits that had managed to escape tried to resist, but without exception, they all beca resources in Zheng Yichen’s hands.
Then, under the watchful eye of distant Evil Spirits, Zheng Yichen waved his black spear and rode his motorcycle out of Hell. The chance to reach the Mortal Realm was so close, but the Evil Spirits could only watch helplessly.
So of Hell’s Evil Spirits are native, while others are banished there.
In this world, entering Hell is easy; leaving is hard.
