After spending a night there, Zheng Yichen found so new items in his storage locker the next day, which had been sent over by two additional witches. These items could be used to combat Evil Spirits, but their impact on an entire city was uncertain.
Nevertheless, they might be able to restore so normality to the inhabitants of the City of Evil Spirits, or at least spare the people there from so of the effects. That would be good enough.
Having received the new items, Zheng Yichen didn’t linger and returned to Alice’s place, where Rebecca seed to be getting along well with her, although now Rebecca looked very haggard and worn out.
"Did you mistreat her? How did she end up like this?"
"I might be a bit morbid, but I don’t make a habit of abusing people," Alice glanced at Zheng Yichen. "She was supposed to look like this; you should have noticed."
"n and won should not touch hands when giving or receiving things, what do you an I should have noticed?" Zheng Yichen said. When he looked at Rebecca using thermal vision, her body’s heat signature seed normal; there didn’t appear to be any problems.
The girl looked weak but was actually quite healthy.
"And here I thought you were omnipotent..."
"Just kidding, if I were omnipotent, I would have solved all the problems by now. She’s quite healthy; let her practice so Health Nourishing Technique for recuperation later." Zheng Yichen said, pulling out a bundle of white papers from a large box and stuffing them into the motorcycle’s Universal Toolbox. He then selected a pretty effective Health Nourishing Technique from the projection screen in front of him.
Soon, the bound martial arts rare manual was printed out and Zheng Yichen tossed the book to Rebecca: "Practice it slowly, the Health Nourishing Technique can also be very powerful once mastered."
"I just want to recover quickly. Are my family mbers really... dead?" Even though Zheng Yichen had personally said she was healthy, Rebecca remained downcast, not solely because of her current exhaustion.
Her condition further proved that Zheng Yichen was indeed correct, and not to ntion that Alice’s potion for removing the influence of Evil Spirit power was truly vile to taste.
"Yes, they’re dead. What purpose would it serve to lie to you about this? Additionally, the souls that enter Hell after death are mostly devoured by Evil Spirits."
"Wow——" The girl finally couldn’t hold back any longer and covered her face with her hands, beginning to cry loudly.
Zheng Yichen, sowhat speechless, continued: "Don’t worry, your parents definitely wouldn’t go to Hell. Generally, only those who die naturally or due to accidents with non-Evil Spirits or ntal Aberration creatures end up in Hell. Those killed by Evil Spirits don’t get the chance to go to Hell."
"Your comfort is really quite heartbreaking," said Alice with a hint of exasperation. "My mother would count as a natural death, but what you’ve shown makes feel awful."
Thinking about what souls in Hell had to endure, Alice couldn’t be happy even though she had obtained everything she wanted.
"I’m only telling the facts. Alright, I need to make another trip to Hell, and how’s the ’It’ going for you? If there’s no issue, I’ll take it with ."
"...I might need another two days," Alice said, looking at her palms. She could feel the changes in her body, but these changes were not permanent. She needed more influence to completely reverse her condition.
Even though this reversal would an that instead of being close to an Evil Spirit, she would beco another kind of half-human creature, which to others would probably be akin to a sick person, not a moving corpse.
Given a choice, she would naturally abandon her forr state without hesitation.
"Then that’s fine, I also need a bit of ti to gather so battle units," Zheng Yichen said, reopening the Gate of Death. Just like before, upon arrival, he fired a Hellfire Orb to cleanse nearby ntal Aberration creatures and then found an appropriate spot to release the new bait.
The previous bait was just a red pill, resembling a hawthorn berry, made of Essence of Life and shining like a ruby. Zheng Yichen smashed this thing imdiately, and so of the fleeing Evil Spirits went utterly mad.
Of course, being intelligent entities, so of them resisted the bait’s allure. Zheng Yichen wasn’t in a hurry; he just waited for the bait to exert a greater effect. He was not only after Evil Spirits but ntal Aberration creatures as well.
Previously, the Evil Spirits had taken many ntal Aberration creatures with them when they fled.
Under the influence of the bait, the ntal Aberration creatures broke free from the control of the Evil Spirits and began to converge towards Zheng Yichen en masse. The sight was enough to impose a bit of pressure on him.
"Hahaha—co on!" he said, observing the approaching ntal Aberration creatures. Zheng Yichen raised his black spear as a wild wind enveloped the area, the howling of the Aberration creatures making Hell seem even darker, while the effects of the bait continued, drawing every low-intelligence supernatural entity within Hell.
Yesterday, he was hunting Evil Spirits in Hell; today, he found himself encircled and fighting for nearly an entire day. Initially, the bait was highly effective, but as its effects waned, so Evil Spirits lost patience. Their thought was clear: Zheng Yichen had been fighting for a long ti, so he must be severely drained by now, right?
