The blazing sun hung overhead, and yellow sand stretched to the horizon.
On the yellow earth at the border, the great tree formed from the Mysterious Female Evil God and the Evil Spawn Beetle rose in gnarled coils, like a huge black snake sprawled across the land. Red flowers made from Mary's flesh swayed in the wind, giving off a faint crimson glow even beneath the sun.
Because Nameless had sealed away all the Mysterious Female Evil God's power, the tree looked unusual only in shape. But Gao Shanggong and the others, who had witnessed its birth, knew just how astonishing its energy and strength had been.
Lenur silently put his gun into his storage ring, then looked at Nameless with mixed feelings.
When he had watched the recording of Nameless exploring the first floor, he had not thought himself weaker. At times, Nameless's performance had even given him the illusion that he was stronger.
But after experiencing the dangers of the second floor firsthand, then seeing the Mysterious Female Evil God forcibly squeezed back into a tree by Nameless, he realized he must have let it go to his head.
"All right, the Mysterious Female Evil God is dealt with. Do you need the Suicide Squad to lure over more death-row prisoners?" Nameless made a few adjustments to the tree's shape, then smiled at the True Self Amateur.
The True Self Amateur took an oval blue jade from his Storage Space and tossed it to Nameless. "Forget it. Dealing with the Mysterious Female Evil God is enough."
He had only said he would pay for however many Nameless killed because anger had gone to his head.
Now that he had calmed down and his wits had reclaimed the high ground, he immediately realized how foolish those words had been.
