Virus King - Chapter 207
Chapter 207: Farewell, Mekanshut! Chen Bai’s Prestige!
TL: YYang
Chen Bai casually took the object handed to him and nodded in satisfaction: “Very good, Agares. Your loyalty has been noted.”
However, almost as soon as he spoke, an endless darkness suddenly enveloped everything.
“Who are you?!” Agares’ voice rang out, cold and indifferent.
An overwhelming pressure instantly surged toward Chen Bai, but just as it appeared, it vanished without a trace.
Wrapped in the Power of the Abyss, not only was Chen Bai’s absolute safety ensured, but Agares, who intended to act, was also restrained.
At this moment, the Eternal Night Sovereign’s pitch-black eyes under his flowing ribbons turned blood-red. Endless demonic energy surrounded him, transforming him instantly into a three-meter-tall demonic true form.
The aura radiating from him was enough to strike terror into the hearts of any god!
Chen Bai, however, showed no fear. He merely smiled and asked: “You figured it out? How did you know?”
“The Devil Bloodline Essence was a gift from my master long ago,” Agares replied, his voice steady but filled with menace. “It was meant for me to escape the Abyss in the future and transform my demonic race into devils. How could my master not know about this item?!”
Agares stared intently at Chen Bai.
Chen Bai waved his hand, and from the Hell King’s Ring, which had now undergone its evolution, a faint aura rose: “Agares, don’t be rash! The Honorable Chen hasn’t done anything to me. It’s just that our plan has failed. Now, there is only one ruler of the Abyss, and that is Chen.”
“Master…”
The reunion between master and servant was moving, albeit in a rather peculiar way.
Chen Bai was quite pleased with Satan’s cooperation, which also managed to calm Agares’ rage.
Otherwise, the enraged Eternal Night Sovereign might not have been able to kill him, but the 500th Layer of the Abyss would likely have been half-destroyed in the chaos.
In the end, Agares still handed over the Bloodline Essence to Chen Bai.
Chen Bai, however, did not plan to consume it immediately. Since he could wield the power of nine different bloodlines, he naturally intended to develop the Blood of the Abyss to its absolute peak.
For an ordinary person, an SS-Rank bloodline would be the pinnacle. However, Chen Bai had the mysterious Face of Taotie.
He wanted to test whether an SSS-Rank Bloodline Essence could be condensed through this artifact!
Chen Bai didn’t linger long on the 500th of the Abyss. Even though he was certain Agares couldn’t harm him, there was no need to provoke the perpetual hostility in the sovereign’s gaze.
Compared to Agares, Chen Bai still preferred the Succubus Queen, who had left him with a deep impression!
Once again, he stood before that familiar palace.
Unlike the illusory projection formed during the Abyssal Trial, this palace was now vividly real. After the Abyssal Well roared to life, Chen Bai descended to the 437th Layer of the Abyss, where he saw the familiar figure of the Succubus Queen.
“Oh, mighty sovereign! I never thought the Abyss would one day fall under someone’s rule. Allow me to formally introduce myself:
I am Mekanshut, the Succubus Queen and ruler of the 437th Layer of the Abyss. I offer my highest respects to the great sovereign!”
The Mekanshut before him was a true deity.
Chen Bai had every reason to believe that, without the protection of the Power of the Abyss, even just one look at Mekanshut might drain all his essence, leaving him a lifeless husk.
No wonder the Dark Mother Goddess Helrose had called Mekanshut the “tragically chaste succubus.”
Her power ensured that no male could approach her closely; they could only revere her from a distance.
Thankfully, with the Power of the Abyss, Chen Bai was shielded from such dangers.
“Your Majesty the Queen, I am fortunate to meet you again. I must admit, my knowledge of the Abyss remains incomplete. I wonder if Your Majesty would enlighten me?”
Mekanshut swayed her heart-shaped tail gracefully as she approached Chen Bai. Her face, a visage that perfectly aligned with the aesthetic ideals of all intelligent male beings across the myriad worlds, displayed a smile so enchanting it could topple entire civilizations.
“Of course, great sovereign,” she said with a voice like velvet. “But before we proceed, I must confirm if your power is truly enough to make even a humble succubus like me submit.”
Clearly, the Abyssal Will had its own unique interpretations.
Chen Bai’s intentions had never involved harming Mekanshut. As a result, even when the spiked whip in his hand lashed down with force, leaving red marks across Mekanshut’s skin, it did not register as harm in the Abyssal Will’s eyes. The protective force around him remained intact.
Meanwhile, the palace resonated with peculiar cries of pain.
Though these sounds echoed throughout the Succubus Queen’s grand palace, they left every succubus attendant within earshot flushed with embarrassment and barely able to contain their reactions.
This peculiar “in-depth exchange” continued for some time. Outside the Abyss, however, there was a lively discussion underway.
…
In Group Chat No. 001
[Overlord: @Bai, Lord White, come out already and save us from this suspense! Give the kids some satisfaction! What is your profession exactly?!]
[Yezi: @All, if Lord White shows up, kick me for being curious.]
[I’m Really Not a Sword Immortal: Wuwuwu! Once again, Lord White has shown me with his actions what it truly means to be a legend! So close, yet I still didn’t complete my profession transfer. I can’t believe I’m only the third one to transfer! Damn it!]
[Crow: @I’m Really Not a Sword Immortal, I need to find a chance to teach this annoying junior a lesson. Any brothers here agree?]
[Shui Chuan: +1! Sword Immortal is so infuriating!]
[Your Han King: Anyone big enough to carry me through a dungeon? I just need a bit more experience to complete my transfer…]
[Group’s Only Trash: By the way, where’s Old Thunder? Is he going to lend me money or not?!]
[Dingding: He’s probably still negotiating with Redo. That Thunder Strider S-Rank profession transfer scroll isn’t going to come cheap. Only Sword Immortal and Lei seem to have clear paths forward right now. But who knows when they’ll finish gathering the tasks and gold?]
[Crow: Not necessarily. King Liu hasn’t been around for a while either. The last time he showed up, he mentioned entering a unique secret realm.]
Just as the group continued their idle chatter, the subject of discussion appeared.
[Heir to the Five-Strike Lightning Whip: Hahaha! @All, make way, brothers! Time for me to flex!]
[Dingding: What nonsense?]
[Heir to the Five-Strike Lightning Whip: Screenshot: Thunder Strider (S-Rank) Profession Transfer Scroll]
[Overlord: !!! WTF?!]
[Shui Chuan: No way. You actually managed to collect everything?!]
It was true. The screenshot revealed the Thunder Strider S-Rank Profession Transfer Scroll in its full glory.
[Heir to the Five-Strike Lightning Whip: Hahaha! From now on, I’m Lord White’s most loyal little brother. Anyone who dares to say a single bad word about him will have to go through me! Hahaha…]
[Crow: @Heir to the Five-Strike Lightning Whip, stop keeping us in suspense. What’s the story behind this?]
[Heir to the Five-Strike Lightning Whip: After finishing another segment of my investment quest, the God of Trade appeared again. He asked me if I was part of Group Chat No. 001. I said yes. Then, with a wave of his hand, he told me, ‘In honor of Lord White, I’ll give you this transfer scroll for now. We’ll settle the feedback during future investments!’ Just like that!]
[Shui Chuan: Holy sht?!]
[Overlord: Holy sht?!]
[Crow: !!! @Heir to the Five-Strike Lightning Whip, Old Thunder! Does the God of Trade have any other profession transfer scrolls available…?]
The chat erupted into chaos.
From the beginning, Chen Bai had shared detailed information about Redo, the God of Trade, when he first appeared in the group. This had given everyone a better understanding of the deity.
But now, everyone was stunned.
This was a true god.
What kind of influence did White Emperor Bai wield to make such a deity casually toss out an S-Rank profession transfer scroll in his name?
At this moment, everyone was left in a state of disbelief, their minds filled with astonishment and wonder.
