The aliens who were picked up by Superman at the beginning

Chapter 228 Should we or not?

The moment the power of the gods' blessing was withdrawn from Li Zhen, an unprecedented pain began in his spine and spread throughout his entire body.

This kind of pain is not an ordinary physical injury, but a feeling that starts from a more subtle level and comes from the inside out.

This far surpasses any of the injuries Lee Jung has experienced in the past due to battle.

But he did not cry out in pain.

Because Li Zhen immediately thought that Rachel was still in front of her.

He opened his eyes, saw Rachel's gaze, and immediately realized what was happening.

A strange crimson began to fill his vision. Rachel's gaze shifted to his waist, and the expression of the emotionless girl turned one of profound sorrow and shock.

He reached out and tried to touch Rachel's hair to tell her not to worry.

But then, boundless darkness completely enveloped the scarlet light.

"Oh no!"

It was an indescribable, boundless darkness and silence.

At least in Li Zhen's later recollection, he was certain that in the instant after death, a person falls into a state of absolute loneliness that transcends the meaning of time.

Until a powerful hand carrying an indescribable beam of light pierced through the darkness that drove people to madness with loneliness.

Li Zhen instinctively grabbed it, as if she had been pulled to the surface of the sea after drowning.

He first took deep breaths, and the surrounding light was so bright that he felt dizzy, so he could only start by looking at the palm of his own hand.

Before even seeing the other person's entire body, Li Zhen recognized their identity through the familiar guardian bracelet.

"Mr. Prince?"

Diana glanced back at him, her lips curving into a smile before quickly disappearing, her gaze turning somewhat strange.

Li Zhen's gaze followed her arm upwards until it met Wonder Woman's eyes.

"Oh, how come I never knew your eyes were so—sparkling?"

Li Zhen muttered something subconsciously, then quickly added an explanation.

"Um, I'm not trying to be witty, this is just how I really feel."

Diana smiled, showing an understanding expression.

"Because we are now in a spiritual state, as His daughter, I was blessed by many gods at birth, and these eyes that can help me walk in the underworld are one of them."

"7

"A spirit?"

To Li Zhen, Diana's eyes, which seemed to radiate golden light, possessed a kind of soothing magic, finally making Li Zhen stop feeling dizzy and the scene gradually become clear.

When she was finally able to see everything around her, Li Zhen quickly turned her head and looked around. Then she saw Rachel standing in front of her, stunned by grief.

The girl seemed to have lost her soul, constantly pressing on Li Zhen's body, and then trying to cast some strange spells before gently touching his forehead.

Finally, he grabbed the hand that Li Zhen hadn't been able to fully extend and fell down in front of Li Zhen with a thud.

"Wait, teacher, I need to talk to Rachel."

Lee Jung instinctively tried to shake off Diana's hand, something that should have been an easy task for him.

Unexpectedly, Diana's hand was like an iron clamp, gripping it very firmly, and she couldn't break free even after shaking it twice.

"This is not a wise choice. Without my help to stabilize your spirit, you could collapse here at any time."

Diana explained quietly.

"Besides, Rachel can't hear you."

"How could that be?"

Li Zhen was somewhat anxious. Intense grief is also very harmful to both body and mind. If she didn't explain to Rachel that she was still alive as soon as possible, Li Zhen was afraid that the girl might do something irrational.

"Rachel is skilled in soul magic, how come she can't see me?"

"But you are not a soul now, you are a spirit."

Diana pulled Lee Jung back to her and tapped Lee Jung's chest.

The originally jet-black battle suit and the flesh it covered turned into an illusory transparent color, and inside Li Zhen's chest, a golden apple was floating.

"The golden apple you consumed through special means, along with half of Eris's divinity, caused a special reaction when you invoked the blessings of the gods, thus granting you some qualities that should only be possessed by the Olympian gods."

Diana's expression was a little strange; she seemed to want to laugh, but also felt awkward about laughing in this situation.

After holding back for a few seconds, Diana continued to speak.

"If you want to be resurrected as soon as possible, don't waste time with me here. We need to get to Olympus as quickly as possible."

Diana then glanced at the arena, seemingly casually. Superman had already awakened, and Kara was descending from the sky.

Her gaze was fixed on Batman, who had just woken up and was still a little dazed, as he was pushed aside, a hint of mockery in her eyes.

Li Zhen was still somewhat dazed when Diana withdrew her gaze from Batman and, before Li Zhen could fully react, forcefully pulled her away from where she stood.

Left with no other choice, Li Zhen could only put aside those chaotic thoughts for the time being, and after looking around one last time, she looked at Rachel with some heartache.

Suddenly, Li Zhen noticed that someone standing in the corner was also secretly glancing at him.

Constantine somehow got hold of cigarettes, and as soon as he opened the package, he poured out five cigarettes at once and stuffed them into his mouth.

When he lit the third one, Constantine finally noticed that Li Zhen's spirit was staring straight at him, and she even secretly raised the hand holding the lighter and waved it.

Li Zhen gritted her teeth, being dragged along by Diana, while raising two fingers with her other hand, first pointing to her own eyes, then fiercely pointing at Constantine.

The latter had already lit all five cigarettes, took a satisfying puff, and exhaled a very thick cloud of smoke, clearly not taking Li Zhen's final gestures to heart.

Diana walked slowly, but the surrounding scenery changed rapidly.

Li Zhen was only in a daze when she realized she had already left Gotham City and was being dragged by Diana into a strange world of light and shadow.

"Wow, what kind of way of traveling is this?"

"The spirit body does not need to walk like the physical body. In this state, we only need to think of a goal in our mind, take a step, and we will get there in no time."

"That sounds faster than the Flash! How come I've never seen you use it before, teacher?"

"Actually, I can't."

"what?"

Diana did not turn around, but there seemed to be some emotion in her tone.

"If it weren't for Zeus's permission, demigods wouldn't normally be able to use this technique."

Li Zhen felt as if she had eaten shit when she heard the name Zeus.

"Why is it Zeus again? Is he still not giving up?"

Diana had no explanation to offer.

Because the moment Li Zhen finished speaking, a familiar face with a thick white beard appeared in front of her.

Zeus remained in that same downward-looking posture, and the thunderous sound, amplified by special effects, was grand yet seemingly devoid of any emotion.

"Oh? It seems you look down on the Olympian gods. I can grant your wish. Now, just extract the golden apple and the divine essence from your body, and I guarantee you'll be able to reincarnate in the underworld immediately."

Immediately, a goddess draped in a dark green robe stepped out from the side. Gone was her flamboyant outfit from the mortal realm. Li Zhen didn't recognize Eris until she was right in front of him, as she now looked almost identical to Diana.

With a mocking smile on his face, Eris reached out and grabbed at Li Zhen's chest.

"Finally, it's going to be returned to its rightful owner."

Li Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly waved her hand.

"etc!"
