Chapter 424 Fortunately, I am more skilled

The three-legged white horse summoned by Hela was over six meters tall at the shoulder. It had two front legs and one exceptionally thick hind leg, and its appearance was extremely strange.

Hela flipped herself onto the white horse, gave a soft shout, and urged the horse to approach Wu Chang.

The white horse is a horse, but it moves extremely slowly. Because it only has three legs, its center of gravity is unstable, making it difficult to maintain balance. It walks as if it is limping, which is very strenuous.

Being carried by it wasn't much faster than Hela traveling alone.

The mighty Goddess of Death rides a lame horse, which looks comical, but for Hela, this lame horse is not simply for transportation or chasing enemies, but rather an amplifier of her abilities.

Hela sat atop a three-legged white horse, its three hooves surrounded by a thick gray mist. With each step the horse took, it stirred up large plumes of gray mist, spewing out a dense aura of death.

Gray fog settled all around, forming large patches of ice crystals. The temperature plummeted, and ice formed on the ground and walls, making the secret research institute feel like it was in the dead of winter.

Under the reflection of the ice, the white research institute of the research department seemed to have an extra layer of light and shadow, and at first glance, it turned into a magnificent but dilapidated palace.

In ancient times, when mythology was prevalent, lameness was usually associated with old age and injury. The lameness of the three-legged white horse may have been a manifestation of this phenomenon. The moment Hela mounted the white horse, she was transformed into the underworld.

If we go a step further and truly turn the surrounding area into the underworld, then that area will become Hela's divine kingdom.

The power of the white horse not only allowed her to condense the prototype of a divine kingdom, but also increased her divine power by at least 20%.

From the perspective of divine power alone, she has surpassed Irene during her time as the Angel of Power.

Given Hela's current level of understanding, if she remained conscious, Wu Chang would definitely admit defeat on the spot and retreat behind Eileen.

What a joke! He's still a level 30 player who hasn't even truly awakened his divinity. Even with the blessing of a blasphemer, it's not enough for him to fight against a god who has condensed the rudiments of a divine kingdom.

But things are different now. Although Hela has divine power, she is a failed experimental subject. Not only is she the same as the surface people outside, but she is also in a strange state of being on the verge of death and her mind is unclear.

More importantly, the Chaotic Power and the Devouring Water have penetrated deep into Hela's body, affecting her condition.

He might not be unable to win against Hela in her severely weakened state.

He looked at Hela and said, "You don't think you're the only one who can summon, do you?"

He quickly retreated, stretched his hand out from the edge of the nascent Hela Kingdom, and drew a line in the void. My true self emerged from the void.

Thanks to his good habit of setting up spatial teleportation arrays along the way, when he discovered the secret research institute, he controlled his true self to rush here. He had already arranged for his true self to be waiting nearby through the teleportation arrays along the way.

Now is the perfect time for your true self to emerge.

Once the true self appears, it enters the Sea Giant transformation, controlling its body to be about fifteen meters tall.

By consuming the source of the deep sea, he transformed into the primordial seed of the deep sea, causing his sea giant form to change from a humanoid giant to one that resembled a deep-sea creature, making him look like a monster that had been summoned.

Wu Chang's main body and true self returned to the nascent form of Hela's divine kingdom and looked at the lame horse approaching them.

This doesn't count as two against one. Since Hela can summon a white horse, it's perfectly reasonable for her to summon her true self.

The appearance of the true self greatly increased Hela's sense of crisis. She did not see the true self make a move, but just by its 15-meter-tall physique, which she had to look up at from her white horse, she knew that the aquatic creature in front of her would not be easy to deal with.

The chaotic power had already made Hela feel that her life was threatened, and with her fighting instincts, she knew that she could not hold back.

She hung the rake in her left hand on the back of the white horse, raised the longsword in her right hand, and as the power of death was poured into it, the shape of the longsword changed, turning into a huge broom.

Wu was not surprised by this, but rather felt that it was the way it should be.

If Hela's abilities truly correspond to those in the mythology, and since her left-hand sword can transform into a rake, it would be surprising if her right-hand sword weren't a broom.

In the gray mist, Hela's broom took shape in her right hand. Perhaps because she was a failure, the branches at the tip of her broom were particularly sparse, like the top of a middle-aged man's head who often stayed up all night.

Hela tried several times but couldn't make the front of the broom grow thick and lush, so she had to give up.

She held the broom with both hands and twirled it in a circle like a flower.

With each circle, a gust of deathly wind spreads out, its chill enough to freeze the soul, its sharpness enough to slice flesh and cut bone.

The deathly winds piled up in layers, endless and boundless, mixed with the wails of countless wronged souls, as if a calamity of death was sweeping across the world.

Looking at the howling wind of death, Wu Chang began to understand why Hela left no survivors in her wake; it meant that she used a broom to reap lives.

Compared to a broom, Hela's rake is indeed too gentle. If some purple sweet potato spirit had stolen Hela's broom instead of a glove and used it to harvest lives, it would have been much more exciting than snapping his fingers.

As the overwhelming winds of death swept in, Wu Chang's true self stirred.

The fifteen-meter-tall body first shielded the main body behind it, and then its whole body crackled with lightning.

When he upgraded the Thunder Magic Fragment to Grade A, he unlocked the ability Five Thunder Magic.

Among the Five Thunder Techniques, he undoubtedly used divine thunder and heavenly thunder the most.

Divine Thunder is designed to target gods, dealing extra damage to targets with divine power. When combined with Blasphemer, the effects stack, making it easier for him to fight ordinary gods than to face ordinary bosses with the power of the source.

The Heavenly Thunder is incredibly powerful in vanquishing demons and monsters, especially in the Holy Song Company and Doomed dungeons, where it is extremely effective against all kinds of monsters.

Besides these two, he used water mines less often. Although the main function of water mines is to control the water palace, he used them more to summon clouds and rain.

He had used three of the Five Thunder Techniques, but he had never had the chance to use the Earth Thunder and the Community Thunder. Now, the opportunity had come.

Faced with the deathly wind, he resorted to landmines.

Landmines are believed to generate all things, nourish the five grains, and symbolize life. They also have the power to cleanse impurities and deliver the souls of the dead.

Whether it's the life force within a landmine or the salvation of the dead, both are incompatible with the deathly wind.

While it's unrealistic to think he can defeat Hela with just landmines, he doesn't need to defeat her. He just needs to withstand Hela's broom and buy time for the Chaotic Power.

As lightning struck the surface of the true self, a bolt of lightning descended from the sky and landed on the ground in front of the true self.

Beneath the lightning, a large amount of yellow earth energy surged up, forming a barrier that blocked the wind of death.

When the deathly winds collide with the earth's energy, the first thing to change is the wailing souls within the deathly winds.

The landmine's ability to deliver the dead silenced the wails of the departed souls. Combined with Wu Chang's true form, who was hiding behind his true self and waving the Soul Cleansing Banner, countless souls in the deathly wind all turned into pure white light. Some rose into the sky, while others disappeared into the Soul Cleansing Banner.

Without the blessing of the dead, the howling of the death wind immediately quieted down, its power reduced by 30%.

By dispelling the spirits of the dead through his special abilities, the true self can only endure the impending divine death.

The earth energy triggered by the landmine can only withstand the death wind for less than a second, and even that one second is not enough to completely block the death wind; it can only weaken it.

The deathly winds seemed endless; any other player would surely abandon the mines and seek other solutions.

But Wu Chang was different; that one second was enough time for him to plant another landmine.

He wasn't afraid of using skills frequently, but rather of skills becoming ineffective. If the landmines were effective, even if the duration was only half a second, he could still burn energy against Hela.

Putting aside the fact that he currently has 395 energy points, which is more than Hela's, and he's not afraid of this tug-of-war, even if the two cards have the same energy, he can keep stealing Hela's attributes with his Chaos Power, and he will win sooner or later.

As for the deathly wind that penetrates the earth's energy, one can only rely on one's true self to withstand it.

Consuming the source of the deep sea not only changes the appearance of the sea giant, but also grants him a 70% bonus to his life and strength attributes when activating his sea giant transformation.

With the knight's invincible energy shield and high health, True Self's tankiness is ridiculously high.

The appearance of the true self can also perfectly bring out the effects of the "Titan" title.

In addition to the fact that players are no longer threatened by fatal wounds, and will not die instantly even if attacked in vital areas, and will not be injured or have limbs severed, the Titan title has another ability.

That means when a player's health is below 5%, being attacked will no longer deduct health, but instead deduct the temporary maximum of the strength attribute.

This allowed his true self to leap forward even further; he stood in front of him like an insurmountable wall. There really were walls inside the secret research institute.

At first, Wu Chang was unsure of himself when faced with the deathly wind, so he hung the Four Directions Fire Lamp on his true self.

After withstanding several waves of deadly winds, he began to realize that Hela's attacks were nothing special.

The idea that only gods can defeat gods is not entirely true.

Simply apply three layers of Mamba Mark to stack 30% damage reduction; then exorcise the souls in the Death Wind to weaken Hela's damage by 30%; then use landmines to neutralize the death energy and greatly reduce the damage of the Death Wind; finally, with a permanent shield three times the energy, high health, and the "Titan" title, you can withstand the god's ultimate attack.

Is this difficult?

With effort and hard work, every player can achieve it.

Just as his true self withstood the winds of death, another notification popped up in front of Wu Chang's eyes.

"Chaos Power activated, Health +60, Energy +70."

He looked at Hela in the distance, and the light membrane on Hela's body, representing the power of chaos, had indeed deepened in color.

The Chaotic Power was activated three times, extracting a total of 120 life points and 150 energy points from Hela. Hela's defenses were about to be breached.

Seeing this, he immediately summoned the Chaos Rune, activating the full power of Chaos and entering the final sprint phase.

At the same time, he stopped hiding in defense and began to control his true self to move towards Hela and take the initiative to attack.

With his powerful physique, Wu Chang's main body and true self kept getting closer to Hela, while Hela, having had too many attributes extracted, could no longer maintain the deathly wind.

Since activating the Death Wind, Wu Chang's main body has been continuously releasing landmines, burning through more than two hundred points of energy. Hela's situation is no better than his.

The chaotic power's third activation drew 70 points of energy, nearly draining Hela dry. Her left side, which belonged to an ordinary person, was already extremely weak. Her hands, which were wielding the broom, began to tremble, and even the white horse beneath her began to lose its balance.

The True Self braved the weakening wind and arrived before Hela. Divine lightning flashed in his hand, and he punched Hela.

Faced with the enormous fist crashing down from above, Hela couldn't afford to continue releasing the Death Wind. She tried to dodge, but the deep poison from the Deep Water Devourer within her body made her movements incredibly slow, and she couldn't escape the range of the fist at all.

She could only raise the broom, using it as a support to block her true self's fist.

With the blessing of the divine kingdom and her divine physique, she barely withstood the onslaught of her true self, but the three-legged white horse beneath her could not support her.

Under the combined force of brute force and divine thunder, the white horse's two relatively thin front legs broke off on the spot, and it collapsed with a crash.

Seeing that the white horse could not hold on, Hela simply transferred most of the damage to the white horse's body, letting the white horse take the pain for her.

The white horse let out a miserable cry and immediately disappeared. Hela took advantage of the fact that the white horse had relieved her pressure and flew backward as she landed, putting distance between herself and her true self.

Before she could even regain her footing, a golden light burst forth from the shadow of her true self—it was Wu Chang's true form, now launching a determined charge.

Taking advantage of Hela's inability to dodge, he slammed a hammer into Hela's head. Hela turned her head to dodge, but only avoided a vital spot; she was still hit in the shoulder.

Wu Chang's hammer blow was very damaging, but according to Hela's estimation, it was still within her tolerance range. Taking a hit would allow her to create distance, so she wouldn't suffer any loss.

What she didn't expect was that her seemingly ordinary hammer blow would create a crack on her shoulder, which then spread along her shoulder and quickly covered her entire body.

Skill Name: Twin Synchronization

Skill Level: B

"Skill Description: When a user possesses a physical clone skill and activates it, the user's control over the clone is greatly increased. When the user's main body and clone attack a target simultaneously, a combined attack effect will be generated, increasing the damage of both attacks by 50% and concentrating it into one of the attacks for a burst."

Wu Chang looked at Hela's collapsing body and couldn't suppress the upward curve of his lips.

Twins in harmony, boy.

You like calculating damage, but can you even calculate the damage of this one hit?
Wu Chang withdrew his resolute light, a relaxed expression appearing on his face. He took out the Soul Cleansing Flag, preparing to exorcise the resentment within Hela's body, when he turned his head and saw Hela's collapsing body turn into gray aura, surging into the research department that had been transformed into a palace in the underworld by the prototype of her divine kingdom.

what's the situation?
Wu Chang looked towards the Underworld Palace and saw a large amount of grayish-white mist pouring into the palace, causing Hela, who was originally on the verge of death, to recover rapidly.

The convergence of a vast amount of deathly divinity formed a pitch-black river outside the palace of the underworld, cutting it off from the outside world.

The river is not filled with water, but with sharp blades that can harm both the body and the soul. If one tries to wade across this river to enter the underworld palace and harm Hela, they will likely be cut to pieces by the blades before even crossing the river.

Wu Chang frowned and stared at the Underworld Palace. The strange phenomenon lasted for five minutes. As the Underworld Palace opened, Hela walked out unharmed.

When Hela reappeared, all the damage she had suffered was gone. Whether it was the shattering wound Wu Chang had inflicted on her shoulder or the deep-sea poison that had accumulated in her body, it had all vanished and been completely eliminated.

Even the attributes that had been drained by the chaotic power have now been fully restored, and her attributes and divine power are even stronger than before.

Rather than saying she was healing her injuries, it would be more accurate to say that Hela was reborn in the palace of the underworld.

Is this the divinity that governs death?

Hela's ability to forcibly solidify the souls of people on the surface of the earth within her body using her death divinity demonstrates that her death divinity truly controls death.

Given this, it makes perfect sense that she prevented her own death and, through the near-death experience, further experienced death and thus became stronger.

Looking at Hela, who was radiant and wielding her twin swords, ready to start a second round of battle with him, Wu Chang instantly understood why the Illuminati did not take Hela's divinity but instead sealed this secret research institute, temporarily imprisoning Hela inside.

The reason is simple: with the power of the Illuminati, defeating Hela is easy, but killing her completely is very difficult.

Moreover, Hela becomes stronger with each death. Rather than letting her grow stronger, it's better to seal her away temporarily and wait until a way to restrain Hela is found before reclaiming her divinity.

Such a troublesome attribute. We must find a divine power of the same or even higher level as Hela to render her death divinity ineffective in order to kill her completely.

Finding such power in the Desolate Realm or even the Realm of Reason is extremely difficult, and even Huanxi finds it a headache.

but……

"Chaos Power activated, Health +100, Energy +110."

Hela's previously radiant face instantly turned haggard, and she lost her footing, only managing to stay upright by using her twin swords to support herself on the ground.

She looked at Wu Chang in disbelief, only to find a huge purple rune appearing behind him.

The purple runes emitted ripples that traveled all the way to her, and when they touched her, they formed outlines around her body.

She looked at herself and found that a purple halo had appeared on her body at some point, and the halo was even emitting faint ripples, echoing the ripples of the purple runes.

Wu Chang shrugged. He happened to possess the ability to suppress Hela's death divinity.

The power of authority, which is a higher level than the divine kingdom and can only be mastered by high-ranking gods, was still immature in his use and could not be effective against some targets.

For example, the joy of opening the flawless golden body, and the Lord of the Deep Sea who established a complete divine kingdom.

But if they can't deal with them, how can they not deal with Hela?
Even though Hela was reborn from the dead through the palace of Hades, she still could not escape the corruption of the chaotic power.

Targets affected by the Chaos Power will be directly annihilated by Wu Chang when the Chaos value exceeds a certain level, and they cannot resist.

At this moment, Hela has reached the killing threshold of the Chaotic Power.

Wu Chang snapped his fingers, and the chaotic runes behind him shone brightly. Hela looked at the chaotic runes uncontrollably, her pupils filled with purple.

The next moment, as if all her strength had been drained away, she collapsed to the ground, motionless.

This is the obliteration of chaotic power; players are not immune, the projection of the Mother of Desire is not immune, and Hela is naturally not immune either.

Wu Chang took out the Soul Cleansing Flag, let out a long breath, and walked towards Hela.

I was almost worn down by Hela's death divinity, but luckily I was more skilled.
