Chapter 209 He Yi's Resentment
He Yun's trembling voice when she asked the question showed that she had already guessed who the human figure in the sarcophagus was.

He Yun and her brother each have a stone of desire. He Yun's stone of desire is still in her hand. The conclusion about who is lying in the sarcophagus is obvious.

Wu Chang put his arm around He Yun's shoulders. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

You can't say that you brothers and sisters are really in sync and have the same ideas.

He originally thought that it would take He Yun some time to adjust his mood, and even if he didn't cry loudly, he would at least wipe away a few tears.

Unexpectedly, He Yun's trembling only lasted for a few seconds, and he quickly calmed down and stood up from the ground.

Wu Chang looked up at He Yun's profile. It was a very serious face, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or sad.

"No, I can't stop here. I have to solve this problem and not let their efforts go to waste."

He Yun lowered her head and met Wu Chang's eyes. She said:
"Everything that happened here has exceeded my expectations. If my brother's incarnation, the human stake, can't seal the God of Desire in the temple, then I'm afraid that having me here won't necessarily be of any use."

"The worst case scenario is that He has escaped."

"Next, I may have to face a god who has escaped from trouble. I cannot guarantee what will happen next. Your ability to be immune to the fog of disaster may not be effective in front of a god. However, I still want your help. You..."

Wu Chang sat up from the ground and slowly brushed off the dust on his pants. If He Yun could see it, he really wanted to show He Yun the colorful title floating above his head.

Do you know what a blasphemer is?
God? I am elbowing the God!

"I've said it many times, no matter what you do, I will be with you till the very end. Even if there is only one person in the world who still stands by you at the end, it will definitely be me."

Wu Chang's words were not empty talk. After all, the title of "blasphemer" was not so easy to obtain. If there was only one person left in the world who dared to go against God, it would definitely be him.

However, He Yun seemed to have a misunderstanding of this sentence.

He Yun seemed to be burned by his gaze. He turned his head and looked at the door, saying, "There is no time to lose. Let's go to the room where the Desire Stele is."

Following his recovered memories, He Yun brought Wu Chang to the main hall of the temple.

In the center of the main hall, there stands a huge stone tablet that reaches the ceiling, no less than thirty meters high.

The stone tablet is huge, and each line of wishing words is placed on the stone tablet, like a stone on a high mountain. However, with the layers of wishes piled up, the wishes recorded from top to bottom are actually written all the way to a position less than half a meter from the ground.

From the countless wishes, it is not difficult to see how the believers who once worshipped the god of desire indulged in their desires.

On the huge stone tablet, Wu Chang saw countless dried bloodstains.

The bloodstains were some deep red and some bright red. According to common sense, the bloodstains that were condensed with bloody wills should not be able to dissipate if the resentment was not fulfilled.

But no matter how hard Wu Chang tried, he could not see any resentment in the bloodstains on the stone tablet.

In the face of time, even the most difficult obsession cannot be resisted.

Wu Chang's gaze moved downwards, and at the end of the stone tablet, he finally saw a pool of light red blood.

This pool of blood should belong to He Yun's brother, He Yi, the former leader of Underground Shelter No. 88.

No bloody will?

Wu Chang was a little confused about the form of a will. Even Zhuo Jie had a bloody will at the end. Why don’t you have one?

What about your sense of responsibility?

Do you want me to tell you that even if you turned into a human stake you still couldn't completely seal the God of Desire, yet you were willing to leave behind a bloody last will.

He clicked his tongue, disdaining He Yi for being stingy, and then saw the light red bloodstain swirling like a vortex, sucking his consciousness into it.

As soon as his vision returned, he saw thick fog coming towards him and heard He Yun's voice in the headphones.

"We are about to enter the temple. Be careful, this temple is far more terrifying than what you see."

Fortunately, he had seen Zhuo Jie's resentment, otherwise it would be difficult for him to understand the current situation for a while.

The perspective of Resentment begins when everyone is preparing to enter the Stone Temple.

Wu Chang looked at He Yun who was not far away from him, and sure enough, the resentment on the stone tablet came from He Yi.

Ever since entering the temple, He Yi's eyes have always been on He Yun. At most, he would move around He Yun for a few steps and never leave at all, making it impossible for Wu Chang to pay more attention to what was happening around him.

Judging from He Yi's situation, although he is the leader of the underground shelter, the role he plays is not a decision maker but a guardian.

In his mind, the person who could truly solve the problem was He Yun.

The subsequent development of the situation was the same as the scene in Zhuo Jie's resentment.

An attack came from the thick fog and broke the protective shields on the team members. As the shields broke, the shouts of the team members were heard through the headphones.

"Damn it! There's a monster in the fog!"

"Boss, my shield is broken, fog is pouring in, and I feel something is drilling into my body!"

"Don't come over here, get out of here, get out of here!"

The more critical the situation was, the calmer He Yi became. Wu Chang could feel that even his breathing frequency had not changed. He was as calm as a machine.

The next moment, He Yi moved.

He grasped the long sword behind him with his backhand. With a sharp sound of breaking wind, light began to shine from the palm of his hand holding the sword, then passed along his arm to his entire body of mecha, and along the blade to the tip of the blade.

The light instantly covered the three-meter-long mecha sword. The light on the sword was like an invisible air blade. Even the fog of disaster would be cut by the sword energy.

Immediately afterwards, He Yi swung his long sword forward with all his might. The blade carried an irresistible force and chopped something into pieces.

It was not until the sound of breaking was heard that He Yun realized she had been attacked. She looked at He Yi, her eyes full of self-blame.

Because the attack in the disaster fog was launched at both of them at the same time.

He Yi was able to react, but he only had the chance to strike out once, and he used this strike to break the attack on He Yun.

In contrast, a hole was pierced through the protective shield of his own mecha by unknown energy.

Looking at the gradually approaching fog of disaster, He Yi remained unshaken, and even his words contained no emotion at all.

"Don't stand there, let's go!"

Wu Chang soon found out why He Yi was elected as the leader of the underground shelter, and why Mercury, who was playing with everyone, did not use more direct means, but instead went to great lengths to set up a drama.

Because this guy is really fierce.

Affected by the fog of disaster, various enemies incarnated from fog began to emerge around them. These enemies were driving mechas of various colors, and their combat effectiveness was obviously greater than the zombie mechas that Wu Chang and He Yun encountered. They should be the most powerful fighters in other underground shelters.

Wu Chang and He Yun had experienced a fog of disaster once, and they knew that in the fog of disaster, the number of enemies would only increase. The best way to deal with it was not to kill them, but to escape more and fight less, and find the nodes in the fog of disaster area while there were still few enemies.

But that is when there is not much fog of disaster.

Given the concentration of the disaster fog in the stone temple, even if one node is broken through, it will soon be affected again.

If Wu Chang were asked to deal with the current situation, the responses he could make would be to either use the Four-Directions Fire Lantern or try to draw lots with the Five Thunders Method to see which thunder could counter the fog of disaster.

However, He Yi's response was to use tough tactics.

He was worried that if there were too many monsters gathering, it would affect his perception and he would be unable to defend against sneak attacks that could penetrate his protective shield.

Facing the powerful mecha warriors that kept appearing in the fog, He Yi killed them one by one like chopping melons and vegetables, and he played the mecha battle with a feeling of incomparable.

Wu Chang had no doubt that if He Yi were alive and saw what the helmeted man thought of He Yun, he would put on the mecha and chop the helmeted man to death.

However, He Yi is not truly invincible. During the advancement, every time he intercepts a sneak attack against He Yun, he will reveal a flaw, and the mecha warriors condensed in the fog of disaster will not give up this opportunity.

The most dangerous time was when the opponent's powerful sniper shot almost pierced He Yi's chest. Although He Yi dodged in time, a big hole was still scratched on the right rib of the mecha, and even the logo of the leader of the shelter on his right arm was knocked to the corner of the temple.

A little further in, and it would pierce his body.

It was just that the mecha was partially damaged, which could not stop him from moving forward.

Under He Yi's ruthless advancement, he quickly escorted He Yun to the main hall of the temple.

He stood guard at the entrance of the hall, patted He Yun on the shoulder, and said, "He Yun, the rest is up to you."

It was not until He Yun entered the temple that He Yi's expression changed, and he half leaned against the stone pillar at the entrance of the main hall.

He complained to the mist warriors that were gathering, "If I had known that things would develop to this point, I would have killed you one by one before taking action. That way, even if I'm not around, no one can bully Xiaoyun."

Unfortunately, the mecha warriors condensed by the fog of disaster will not talk.

What followed was an endless battle. When the energy of the mecha was exhausted and there was no support from the mecha, He Yi began to suffer injuries quickly until he could no longer get up.

He Yi, lying on the ground, used up his last bit of strength to look up at the main hall.

He saw that the light in the main hall was getting brighter and brighter.

"It seems that I won't be able to see the results with my own eyes."

He Yi's eyes went dark and he completely lost consciousness.

After an unknown amount of time, He Yi opened his eyes again. He looked up and saw the familiar ceiling.

No, it was the familiar fog of disaster. The thick fog obscured his view of the ceiling of the temple.

"I'm alive?"

Not only was he alive, but all the injuries he suffered in the battle before his death had miraculously healed.

The fog of disaster in the temple was still thick, but it did not affect him again, as if he did not exist.

"This unscientific."

A voice came from his ear, "No, this is scientific."

He Yi turned his head and saw Mercury in a suit standing next to him.

Facing Mercury, He Yi's face quickly changed to a blank expression and asked, "You saved me?"

Mercury shrugged and said, "Of course, is there anyone else here besides me?"

He Yi was slightly surprised and said, "This is the first time I know you are a doctor, and that you can treat patients so thoroughly."

Mercury waved his staff with two snakes entwined around it and said, "Don't you know that the staff with two snakes entwined around it is the symbol of a doctor?"

He Yi asked in confusion: "Why do I remember that there is only one snake on the snake staff representing doctors?"

Mercury said: "Don't pay attention to these details. The military medical system and many hospitals will choose to use the snake staff as their logo for the sake of appearance. This is not the point. The point is that I saved you." He Yi did not respond. He dismantled the broken mecha on his body, rummaged around, and picked up the broken handle of the mecha's long sword.

The broken mecha sword was reduced to only 70 to 80 centimeters of the blade. He swung it twice and it was just enough for him to use with his physical body.

After picking up the broken blade, he looked up and asked, "Where's He Yun? How is she now?"

Mercury shook his head and said, "It's very bad, which is why I rescued you."

He Yi frowned slightly and said, "What do you need me to do?"

Mercury didn't waste any words and said directly: "Because you didn't listen to my advice and abused the power in the temple, the God of Desire awakened early. He Yun and I found a way to end everything. This was originally a perfect plan, but there was a small accident. The awakened God of Desire disagreed."

"So, I would like to ask you to help the God of Desire stay quiet for a while."

He Yi understood what Mercury meant. He nodded and said, "I understand."

After saying that, He Yi stood up and walked into the main hall of the temple.

In front of the Stele of Desire, he saw He Yun floating in the light, she seemed to be immersed in some kind of space.

Mercury on the side explained, "It's the God of Desire. He is trying to use his divine power to influence He Yun. We must speed up, otherwise once He Yun gets lost in the power of the God of Desire, he will be completely free and everything will be irreversible."

He Yi took one last look at He Yun. He pressed his thumb on the hilt of Broken Blade. A secret compartment popped out on the guard of Broken Blade, and he poured out a pink gem from it.

This is the Stone of Desire that he keeps.

He participated in the entire process of deciphering the words in the temple. Although he did not truly master the language, he remembered which one was the wish of the human stake to seal the God of Desire.

Can’t you write, but can you copy?
He Yi did not hesitate and began to copy on the stone tablet with the Stone of Desire.

Halfway through copying, near the end, Mercury suddenly asked, "Do you trust me so much, without any doubt?"

He Yi kept his hands moving and asked, "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

Mercury said, "Of course it is true."

He Yi: "The truth is, I don't trust you, but He Yun. I just need to make room for her, and she will definitely be able to solve the problem in the end."

At this point, the wish in He Yi's hand has come to an end. He only needs the last two characters to complete the wish.

But at this moment, a shrill scream rushed into his ears.

"stop!"

The sharp sound made him squint his eyes. When the scream disappeared, he opened his eyes and found that He Yun and Mercury beside him had disappeared.

Not only that, the dilapidated ancient stone temple has become magnificent at this moment. The cold stone slabs are covered with freshly picked flowers, and each flower is kept in its most prosperous stage, as if it were a carpet made of flowers.

On the flower carpet stood a girl, or rather a lady, so beautiful that she looked like a non-human.

She possesses both the innocence of a girl and the maturity of a young woman. Her every frown and smile can stir up people's deepest desires.

He Yi recognized Her; She was the Mother Goddess worshipped by the Paradise Sect.

The Church of Bliss, a new religion that suddenly emerged when the Earth's Core Plan was confirmed and humans were about to withdraw from the surface to the underground, was said to have massacred many followers of the Church of Bliss in the Shelter Alliance that massacred Underground Shelter No. 87.

I have to admit that the Mother Goddess's figure is very seductive. Although She is not He Yi's ideal type, the moment he saw Her, She became his ideal type.

If he were given a chance, he would definitely pursue the Mother Goddess at all costs, even at the cost of his life.

But not now.

Because his sister needs him.

So he just took a look, stood up slightly out of politeness, and continued writing his wish.

"Stop!" The voice of restraint sounded again, this time it came from the mouth of the Mother Goddess.

"The Desire Stone is a reward given to obedient children. Wouldn't your conscience hurt if you used the Desire Stone to seal someone?"

He Yi nodded and said as he wrote: "It will hurt."

"You still write even though it hurts!" the Mother Goddess shouted in dissatisfaction.

He Yi said as a matter of course: "It hurts, but it doesn't mean I won't do it. If I make you unhappy, I can apologize."

The Mother Goddess was silent. She felt that with the passage of time, a generation gap had appeared between Her and today's humans. If she didn't make her words clear, the other party seemed not to understand.

The Mother Goddess changed her communication method and said in a sweet voice, "Do you know what punishment the last two bad kids who did this suffered?"

He Yi paused for a moment and asked, "What punishment?"

The Mother Goddess smiled and said, "Even if I use the Desire Stone to seal someone, their soul still needs to be sacrificed to them, so I will let their souls forever immerse themselves in the scene they least want to see, in an endless cycle."

"There was a bad boy who quickly became bad. After only three days, he frantically begged for mercy and confessed his crimes. Hehe, but I didn't listen. On the tenth day, his soul couldn't hold on and was completely shattered."

"The other bad boy was more determined, which made me appreciate his miserable state a little more, but he only lasted half a year before he was broken."

"Tell me, what are you most afraid of?"

The Mother Goddess's face darkened instantly. She widened her eyes, and her dark pupils almost occupied her entire eyeballs. She leaned close to He Yi's ear and muttered frantically:
"Believe me, those two times were my first time punishing bad kids, and my skills were not good enough. Bad kids who dare to continue doing evil after hearing my warnings, like you, are unforgivable."

"I can guarantee that this time I will use all my heart and soul to keep playing with you. I will let you taste a different kind of pain and make your soul forever immersed in despair, so that you won't be able to completely break apart!"

The Mother Goddess's threat was very terrifying, but He Yi didn't listen at all. While the Mother Goddess was threatening him, he had already finished writing down the wish in his hand.

"Ah! How dare you, how dare you!"

"Bad boy, there is a bad boy here! You must be severely punished!"

"I will make you suffer. I will not only imprison you, but also the soul of that stupid little girl outside. Let you suffer endless torture!"

The Mother Goddess held her face in her hands and yelled in frustration.

He Yi could feel that his soul was gradually being controlled by the woman in front of him, but a smile appeared on his face.

"You're scared."

The lethality of this sentence to the Mother Goddess is no different from your impatience. The Mother Goddess's rage was blocked instantly, and she seemed to be on mute.

He looked at He Yi, his eyes flashing with an extremely dangerous light, and then said:
"What am I afraid of?"

"You are afraid of that stupid little girl you mentioned. She is my proudest sister."

He Yi continued, "She is smarter than anyone else. My existence has actually been affecting her growth. Without my protection, she will surely grow up very quickly. It won't be long before she finds a way to completely defeat you."

“I believe that.”

The Mother Goddess looked at He Yi fiercely and said, "You will pay the price for angering a god today."

The scene of resentment ended here. After a moment of trance, Wu Chang's consciousness returned to reality.

After reading He Yi's resentment, he began to understand why there was no bloody will in He Yi's resentment.

Because he firmly believed that He Yun would be able to come up with a solution to the problem he had fought for, he believed in He Yun more than in himself.

He was also afraid of He Yi's military power, and at the same time wanted to use He Yi until the last moment. Until the end, Mercury did not reveal his true nature in front of He Yi.

Therefore, he only had regrets, but no obsession that could not be resolved.

When Wu Chang was sighing, he heard He Yun's voice.

"Heping, what are you thinking about? Stop being in a daze."

Wu Chang shook his head, turned to look at He Yun, and said, "What's wrong?"

He Yun said: "I saw the wish on the stone tablet, and a small part of my memory was restored in my mind, but I haven't remembered the most important part yet. I think I should walk around more, maybe I can remember something."

"The loss of memory requires more stimulation." Wu Chang stared at He Yun and muttered.

He Yun felt a little scared by Wu Chang's look and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you talking about? You look so weird, you are not thinking about anything bad. Let me tell you, not all excitement is exciting, now is not the time to think about those things."

Wu Chang didn't notice what He Yun said. He slammed his palm with his hand, took out his unlimited portable live broadcast room and started operating it.

After a moment, he looked up suddenly and found that it actually worked!

He said to He Yun, "Stay here and don't move. I'll be back soon."

He Yun: "Ah? Oh."

He Yun watched Wu Chang turn around and run away, his face full of question marks. He didn't know what he was going to do, and at the same time he felt a little worried.

Heping has never been to the stone temple, so he won’t get lost.

A few minutes later, Wu Chang came running back and said, "I told you before that I can communicate with spirits, do you remember?"

He Yun nodded and said, "Remember."

Although she remembered it, she was actually always skeptical about the so-called psychic communication.

Wu Chang came to He Yun's right side, took out the underground shelter leader emblem that he had just picked up following He Yi's resentment, and pressed it on He Yun's right armor.

"I just saw your brother's soul. He said that this thing should be given to you. He believes that you can be a good leader of the underground shelter and completely solve the problem of the Stone Temple."

He Yun looked at the leader's mark on his right arm and his mind went blank for a moment.

In fact, she has always felt guilty for her brother's death, thinking that she had let everyone down. Her brother placed all his hopes on her, but she messed everything up.

So, she has actually been avoiding it.

But even now, her brother still believes in her. If she continues to escape, it will really disappoint her brother.

Thinking of this, she seemed to hear the sound of something breaking in her ears, and a large amount of memories came flooding back like a tide.

Just as she was about to carefully review these memories and look for an opportunity to truly solve the problem, Wu Chang's next words made her completely ignore the memories that were gradually recovering.

Wu Chang looked at He Yun and asked tentatively: "How is it, are these stimulations enough?"

"If that's not enough, I have another suggestion. How about we go rescue your brother now?"

He Yun: "What?!"
