[Return Imdiately][Return Later]
He Ao ignored the subtitles and translucent windows that had popped up before his eyes; at this mont, the huge book phantasm within the array had solidified, and the tightly closed eyes on the book’s cover had also begun to tremble.
His previous worries were justified, as the ritual he had understood was incomplete; the so-called ‘eternal life’ was actually both the soul and the body being consud by the God of Knowledge.
In this ritual, the ritual practitioner himself was one of the sacrifices.
However, during the process of the ritual, he had deliberately retained a wariness, maintaining his ntal state with the power of his will, ensuring that his soul was not consud during the ritual.
He had persevered until the completion of the mission, but to his surprise, the ga system did not end the ga directly but gave him a 90-second buffer ti.
Of course, he had anticipated this possibility beforehand.
His gaze shifted to Selena, whom he had trapped; there was much he could do in these 90 seconds.
Selena, unable to break free from He Ao’s control, had gradually given up resisting.
However, at that mont, she felt the tentacles binding her suddenly loosen, and the tal wires on her body were instantaneously undone.
She took a few turns and looked at He Ao with so bewildernt, only to see the tentacles at the very bottom of He Ao’s body move slightly, squeezing out a tal box and placing it beside her.
This was the tal box she had just unsealed, preparing to kill He Ao with.
“The Evil God’s Offspring is most vulnerable right after being summoned,” He Ao said without looking back at her.
Instead, he continued to extricate eight tal stakes from beneath him; sparks of electricity flowing along the tal.
These were the tal stakes of the confinent device he had casually pulled out and had been hiding all along beneath him.
The information about the vulnerability of the Evil God’s Offspring was engraved in the mories related to the summoning ritual; the purpose was to make the ritual practitioner consciously design a safe environnt to protect the progeny of the God of Knowledge from harm.
However, He Ao believed that the God of Knowledge had its own contingency plans—such as directly consuming the summoner to replenish its power.
But now it had no such chance!
In the blink of an eye as these thoughts flitted through his mind, He Ao’s massive body had already charged towards the now-solidified gigantic book.
The book seed to sense the danger, flickering as if to leave the Ritual Array.
But He Ao was faster, and amidst the flurry of countless tentacles, the vast book was quickly entwined with long tal wires, which were then connected to the still-energized tal stakes.
Blinding electric arcs flashed past.
Although He Ao had overstretched the confinent device, reducing its effectiveness, the power it unleashed in a short amount of ti was still considerable.
The intense pain from the tal wires briefly halted the book’s movents.
The long barbed wires, like tightening into flesh, cinched into the body of the enormous book, from which blood gushed out from the wounds.
This dignified-looking colossal book was entirely made up of flesh and blood.
Selena might have been naive but she wasn’t dumb; she instantly understood He Ao’s plan.
He Ao intended to have her activate the tal box to kill the offspring of the God of Knowledge; for this, he had personally stepped forward to restrain the offspring’s movents.
Even though Selena didn’t understand He Ao’s ultimate aim, she was very clear that this was her only chance now.
Whether there was a conspiracy or not, she had to seize every opportunity to kill the offspring of the God of Knowledge.
So she didn’t hesitate to place her hand on the tal box.
Once again, a misty radiance lit up on the box.
To ensure that warriors could use weapons at any ti, the Federation’s encryption usually required only biotric verification after the first key verification was successful.
Even if the warrior responsible for opening the box had only a remnant of a body left, they could still initiate the attack through biotric authentication at the last mont.
And as Selena placed her hand on the box, the tightly closed eyes on the book suddenly sprang open, revealing the huge eyeball inside.
The eyeball moved rapidly, focusing on Selena.
The madness and chaos of knowledge flooded into her mind in an instant, threatening to distort her thinking.
However, the influx of knowledge was as swift as it was fleeting.
Almost imdiately after a brief mont of stupor, Selena regained her sanity.
She looked toward the book, only to see He Ao covering the book’s eyes with seven or eight tentacles.
Could the contamination of the Evil God’s Offspring be blocked like this?
Selena was montarily confused, but she didn’t have ti to think further as the sealed box clicked open.
The pollution of the Evil God’s Offspring couldn’t be easily blocked, of course.
By blocking the sight of the book, He Ao took on the onslaught of mad, chaotic knowledge instead of Selena.
Of course, his ntal resistance might be just a little higher than Selena’s, given that such chaotic and mad knowledge didn’t seem to affect him much.
Imdiately afterward, he shifted his attention to the tal box.
He was also curious about what kind of thing inside this tal box could kill the Evil God’s Offspring.
A Plasma Cannon?
A laser beam?
A super electromagnetic cannon?
As the box gradually opened, he could see clearly what was inside.
The box was tightly packed with intricate chanical components, and in the very center of these components, there lay a vividly red and sinister heart.
Though the heart was no longer in a body, it was still beating vigorously.
He Ao thought he could hear the deafening sounds of a heart beating like war drums by his ear.
These heartbeat sounds made his blood surge, made him want to fight, to slaughter wildly, to destroy everything in front of him.
Killing people indiscriminately seems to be illegal.
In that instant, as if doused with a bucket of cold water, He Ao’s thoughts cleared, and he realized he had almost been corrupted by the pollution from the heart.
However, Selena, who stood behind the box, seed to be completely unaffected.
She had no intention of looking at the contents of the box.
It seed that only by ‘gazing’ at the heart could one be potentially contaminated.
This world truly is dangerous; a casual glance at sothing forbidden can lead to contamination.
He Ao shifted his gaze away from the heart, and as he did, the chanical components enclosing the heart started to operate rapidly.
Under the action of this machinery, the beating heart seed to be subjected to so intense stimulus.
A brilliant red beam burst forth from the heart, instantly piercing through the offspring of the God of Knowledge and He Ao, who was restraining it.
The giant book warped for a mont when struck, attempting to break free from He Ao’s control, but it soon cald down, its entire body being covered by a blood-red radiance, gradually stiffening.
anwhile, He Ao felt an overwhelming, twisted battle will corroding his body.
He struggled to hold up his body, crushing the remnants of the Evil God’s Offspring in his arms.
A misty pure white light suddenly burst forth from the debris and entered his body.
