Chapter 122: Curse Insect

As an enemy, Sarina was arrogant and proud. But after changing her identity, she immediately became humble and polite.

"Sir."

Sarina took out a prop from her cloak and handed it over with both hands: "Please accept this faith item, my lord. Only by holding it can you unleash its full power."

They even included additional items when recruiting people?

This was quite unexpected for Lu Yao.

The new item was a strange symbol, like an inverted capital letter A.

...

【Curse of True Sight】: Faith -500/usage.

The holder needs to use the faith fire or life value as nourishment to temporarily activate this forbidden curse and use the main god-level 【True Sight】.

Lu Yao had never seen a faith-consuming item before.

But he didn’t know the effect of the main god-level 【True Sight】.

So he decided to conduct an experiment.

Lu Yao activated the 【Curse of True Sight】 and aimed it at Sarina.

The faith value in the upper right corner immediately decreased by 500.

On the screen, Sarina’s body suddenly appeared with faint cracks of light. Her personal panel also changed drastically, adding three new lines of information in addition to the previous data.

...

【Godhood】: None.

【Divinity】: None.

【Divine Body】: God Tier.

...

This thing can identify the characteristics of gods.

Lu Yao felt excited.

Facing monsters, he could quickly obtain their abilities and attribute panels.

But when facing gods, especially when they were in the form of statues, Lu Yao would go blind and need to constantly probe for information.

With the 【Curse of True Sight】, Lu Yao would have an easier time dealing with other gods in the future.

He could instantly see the godhood situation, divinity status, and divine body strength of the opponent... Mastering the basic strength of other gods would make decision-making faster and more accurate.

The first level of the Abyss dungeon was completed, and they had a great harvest on their third attempt!

Lu Yao then asked Sarina about the seal on the first level.

"Sir, the seal is the work of the gods. Only gods with intact godhood, divinity, and divine bodies can change and absorb the faith fire."

"The gods trapped in the Abyss had their godhood and divinity stripped away by the God of Darkness, making it impossible to touch or ignite the faith fire and break through the seals of each level."

"I’m not sure about the situation in the other levels, but the seal on the first level is guarding a very troublesome monster."

"It is the strongest existence on the first level."

Sarina said, "That creature comes from the tenth level and is a Curse Insect."

"Curse Insects are monsters that feed on the divine bodies of gods. They start as egg forms, resembling a series of strange symbols."

"Only a few eggs can hatch into larvae."

"But once they become larvae, Curse Insects possess astonishing destructive power and mutate into various special abilities that are hard to comprehend..."

—Hold on.

Lu Yao couldn’t help but interrupt her.

He suddenly remembered that the living spell was one of the rewards from the Golden Wilderness. Could it be the egg of a Curse Insect?

"Yes, sir. Living spells are actually the eggs of Curse Insects."

Lu Yao couldn’t help but look at his inventory.

In that case, was the Curse of True Sight also one?

"Yes, sir."

Sarina confirmed again and continued, "The bodies of different gods have different abilities, and these abilities gradually become independent through various means, whether it’s mutation or transformation. That’s what the curse eggs are."

"Curse eggs exist in a state between life and death, and it’s difficult for them to hatch. Most curse eggs, or living spells, are harmless as long as they are not controlled and drained."

Lu Yao had a puzzled expression.

Not being controlled and drained?

That’s considered harmless?

He wondered if Sarina was overestimating the god players or underestimating the curse eggs.

"But correspondingly, once a curse egg transforms into a Curse Insect, even if it’s just a larva, it can cause a huge disaster. Even gods would have a hard time dealing with Curse Insects."

"The reason is that Curse Insects have special resistance to the power of faith, and it’s difficult for gods to destroy them with miracles. They instinctively know how to resist miracles."

Lu Yao’s heart skipped a beat.

They have resistance to the power of faith?

No wonder Curse Insects were so troublesome.

"In the first level, the core of the seal...," Sarina paused, and the words in the dialogue box above her head appeared word by word.

"It’s a mature Curse Insect."

"Its threat level is equivalent to the God Tier."

Lu Yao never had a specific concept of the God Tier.

He was more concerned about the combat capabilities displayed by the God Tier.

"Gods can directly move the world, and in their own world, they are difficult to completely eliminate."

Sarina explained concisely, "The current first level of the Abyss is actually inside this Curse Insect."

In that case, there was no need to worry.

Lu Yao decided to consider how to deal with the first level Curse Insect in the long run.

After leaving the first level of the Abyss, the apostles returned to their respective positions.

The White God returned to Salt City to continue being a sitting god.

The Blood Knight returned to the castle to train the corrupters.

The Snowman rode the Ghostly White Horse again and searched the world for treasures.

Phileas parked the Skeletal King Jiu by the seaside and started maintaining the skeletal creatures.

The Deep Sea Lord, Klaw, sank into the water and slowly recovered with the help of water elementals.

Isabella rode her staff and once again traveled the world, searching for traces of other gods or suspicious objects.

Sarina, on the other hand, came to the Yao City Temple and presided over this ancient holy city.

...

Lu Yao stretched his neck.

This battle had made him highly focused, and he only felt mentally exhausted after it was over.

He lay on the bed and let Xiao Huo massage him for a while.

After resting for a while, Lu Yao yawned and sat up from the bed.

The wind outside was strong at night, making the old glass windows rattle.

When Lu Yao closed the window, he saw Song Shiyi standing under the streetlight again.

She looked up and stared at the streetlight. The envelope kept swaying in the wind, and her short hair was slightly messy, giving her a pitiful look.

The wind was strong and the night was cold. Song Shiyi checked her phone and continued to wait.

Lu Yao guessed that she must have something important.

It had been almost a week.

Should he ask Isabella to check on her?

But he decided to let it go for today.The war had just ended, so Isabella needed some rest.

Lu Yao closed the window and fell asleep immediately.

......

Song Shiyi smoothed her hair that had been tousled by the wind.

The night in December was exceptionally cold, and the wind tonight was strong, making her nose turn red.

She stomped her feet.

The sparrow on her shoulder, Little Ming, was chirping incessantly.

"Let’s go back, the wind is too strong, you’ll catch a cold!"

"Wait a little longer."

Song Shiyi touched her cheeks with both hands.

"Find someone else, others can volunteer too," Little Ming said again.

The young female prosecutor rubbed her hands: "She is the most suitable, and no one else is willing to come."

"Mary, Mary, she’s not sincere."

Little Ming flapped his wings, still chattering: "She’s mysterious, and if we’re not careful, she might attack us."

"Why do you dislike Mary so much?"

"She’s suspicious, her identity is questionable."

Song Shiyi laughed: "Even the clearest records in the database can’t tell us who is law-abiding and who has ulterior motives."

"Mary is the biggest hidden danger! Hidden danger, hidden danger!"

Little Ming was still relentless, circling and protesting.

Song Shiyi checked the time on her phone: "Stop making noise, the letter I left for her hasn’t been opened, it seems she might not be here... let’s go back today."

"Great! Great! Let’s go home, let’s go home!"

The sparrow flew excitedly around the girl’s head.
