"Oh, so you're the Pegasus of this generation?" The woman in black nodded as she looked at Pegasus.
"How did you end up like this?" She asked curiously, looking at Pegasus's illusory soul form.
"I met Aaron in the human world, who is the human form of Hades, and he beat me up like this in one blow!" Pegasus scratched his head awkwardly.
"You managed to retain your soul after taking his blow?" The woman in black was somewhat surprised, but she quickly noticed the straw wreath on Pegasus's wrist.
"So it was Athena's blessing that protected you, no wonder, no wonder!" she suddenly realized.
Even if Pluto is not fully awakened, he is still beyond the current capacity of Pegasus to withstand.
It's perfectly normal for a single blow to shatter one's soul; to preserve a complete soul is a miracle.
"As for you..."
She looked at Wuxin with a smile and said, "You're more interesting than Pegasus!"
"Besides Athena, who else is behind you?"
"I'm sorry, ma'am, I don't know either!" Wu Xin replied with a wry smile.
Judging from her words and actions, the elegant lady sitting in front of him was likely a deity.
He has no right to lie to the other party.
"You don't know yourself?" The woman in the black veil raised an eyebrow, not quite believing it.
“I have severe memory loss; I’ve even forgotten my original name, so I don’t know which deity put a trap on me!” Wu Xin replied truthfully.
"So that's how it is! It seems this holy war will be quite interesting!" A meaningful smile appeared on the woman in black veil.
The intervention of an unknown god in the holy war will make the war even more complicated.
Of course, this also made things more interesting for her.
"You can control the accumulated corpse energy, so you should be able to easily open the passage to the human world. Now that you have found the Pegasus, why didn't you leave immediately?" the woman asked, staring at Wuxin.
"Can I not answer this question? Because it relates to some of the Holy Domain's strategic plans!" Wu Xin replied with a wry smile.
He didn't want to explain the situation because it was unclear whether the other party was friend or foe, but since the other party seemed to be a god, he found it difficult to refuse.
"Is this part of the Sanctuary's strategic planning?"
The woman thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "In that case, I won't ask anymore!"
Then, she smiled and said to the two of them, "Speaking of which, it's been a long time since any outsiders have come to my place."
"It's fate that you were able to come here."
"For Athena's sake, I will reward you with a cup of nectar!"
As she spoke, she winked at a little elf beside her.
"Yes, my great master!"
The little elf responded, then called for its companions to help, and flew into the nearby sea of flowers.
Before long, they were seen chattering and flying out again, carrying two trumpet-shaped flowers.
Perhaps it was a bit too heavy, because the little elves struggled to lift it, their little faces turning red, and they flew erratically, unable to maintain their balance.
Other little elves nearby immediately stepped forward to help, and together they lifted the two little flowers and flew to the two of them.
Only then did Wuxin realize that the little flower contained a faintly glowing liquid and emitted a refreshing fragrance that made it impossible to look away.
“This is a gift for you, drink it!” the woman said gently, waving her hand.
Tianma swallowed hard, struggling to look away as he gazed at Wuxin, unsure of what to do.
Sensing that the woman in front of him meant no harm, Wuxin nodded, accepted a small flower, and carefully drank the nectar inside.
As the nectar entered his stomach, Wuxin clearly felt a strange power being released from his stomach, seeping into his flesh and blood, and penetrating deeper into his soul.
At that moment, he felt as if spring rain had poured down on the earth, giving him an unparalleled sense of nourishment. His soul and will were strengthened, and he was elevated to a great height out of thin air.
"What miraculous nectar!" Feeling the changes within his body, he couldn't help but clench his fingers.
After this period of training in the Holy Realm, his basic strength has reached the level of nearly 500,000 times the speed of sound. Now, nourished by the sweet dew, his soul will has been further strengthened, and the power of his cosmos that he can draw upon has also been enhanced.
A rough estimate suggests that it reached nearly 700,000 times the speed of sound.
If we also consider the enhancement from the Saint Cloth, it approaches the speed of 800,000 times the speed of sound.
His strength has been greatly improved.
In terms of speed alone, he is already very close to the speed of light. Even against a being with the Seventh Sense, he has the ability to fight back and will not be overwhelmed by speed and helpless.
However, Wuxin also discovered that as his own basic strength improved, the blessing effect of the Saint Cloth was also weakening, far less than when he first obtained the Saint Cloth.
Pegasus also drank the nectar.
Although he was only a soul, he still received the nourishment of the nectar.
This is not special because of the Pegasus, but because of the nectar, which can be absorbed by a soul entity like the Pegasus.
His strength increased dramatically. He had already reached the high level of bronze, and now, with the sweet dew nourishing his soul, he was directly promoted to the silver level.
The improvement was even greater than that of enlightenment.
"What amazing nectar! It's truly incredible!" Pegasus exclaimed excitedly, licking his lips as if he wanted more.
The woman in black veil gave a mysterious smile and said, "I have already given you the gifts, so now I need you to do something to repay me!"
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Xin and the other person exclaimed in surprise.
So it turns out this nectar wasn't given away for free; it came with a price!
"Can we... refuse? We still have a very important mission to complete!" Pegasus asked with a forced laugh.
“If you return the nectar, I will allow you to refuse!” the woman in black veil replied calmly.
"This……"
Tianma was speechless and had nothing to say.
Knowing there was no way to refuse, Wu Xin could only bite the bullet and ask, "Excuse me, ma'am, what do you need us to do?"
"We will do everything we can to help you fulfill your wish!"
The woman in black smiled slightly and said, "In the Eighth Moat of the Seventh Hell, there is a fellow named 'Hephaestus' hiding there."
"Find him and obtain from him a spark of the 'Blazing Soul Flame,' and your mission will be complete!"
“Hephaestus? The Olympian god of craftsmanship?” Wu Xin was taken aback.
"Yes, it's him!" The woman in the black veil nodded.
"The God of Crafts? Why isn't he staying in Olympus? Why is he in this hell?" Pegasus was equally astonished.
"Why? To avoid heartbreak, perhaps?"
The woman in black shook her head, her mockery undisguised: "That guy married a woman he shouldn't have, and he's been played like a fool. He can't stay on Olympus anymore, so he's hiding in this hell!"
“Since the God of Crafts is in Hell, why doesn’t the lady let this one, or another Specter, do it?” Wuxin glanced at Orpheus suggestively.
Chapter 66 Intimidation and Threats
"Because I don't want the others in the underworld to know, understand?" The woman in black veil narrowed her eyes, her tone becoming much more serious, with a hint of warning.
"Understood!"
Wu Xin nodded.
Since the other party doesn't want others in the underworld to know, it's natural that they can't use their own people; it's most appropriate for an outsider like him to complete the task.
"Then, may we ask further, what is the lady's purpose in needing such a fire source?" Wuxin asked again.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"
The woman in the black veil's eyes sharpened considerably, completely losing their previous gentleness, and she exuded an extremely terrifying aura of power.
"what--"
Wu Xin and the other two were completely unable to withstand it and were directly blasted away by that oppressive force.
However, this oppressive force came and went quickly.
After a brief outburst, the woman in black veiled composed herself again, as if nothing had happened, and remained seated calmly and dignified in her chair.
"This...this kind of microcosm is enough to rival the gods!!" Pegasus, who had just gotten up from the ground, was shocked.
He had already met Aaron in his hometown in Italy and witnessed the power of Hades within Aaron.
The mysterious woman before them was even more powerful than Aaron, who had just awakened.
"Now, do you have any questions?" The woman in black veiled elegantly took a sip of her tea.
"I want to ask, why us? With your abilities, Madam, you should be able to easily find someone from the human world to help, right?" Wu Xin asked cautiously.
Like Pegasus, based on the burst of power the other party had just unleashed, he was now certain that the person before him was a god.
For a god with immense power in the underworld, capturing people from the mortal realm would be an easy task.
"It's very simple!"
Setting down her teacup, the woman in the black veil said calmly, "Just like before, I don't want anyone else to know about this."
"Moreover, not just anyone is qualified to do this!"
"And you are one of those very few lucky ones."
As she spoke, her gaze fell on Wuxin.
"I?"
Wu Xin was somewhat taken aback. He had thought that the lady's real target was Tianma.
After all that, it turns out that Pegasus was just a side effect; he was the real target.
Upon hearing these words, Tianma curiously began to examine Wuxin.
Have you ever heard of fate?
The woman leaned back lazily in her chair and said with a half-smile, "Fate is not in control of everything as you mortals imagine."
