Large plumes of smoke rose from the broken walls as Hela, shaking her head, dug herself out of the rubble.
Its pure white head shook like a puppy's, shaking off all the dust that had settled on it.
His gaze swept around, and then he spotted something interesting.
On one elegant display stand after another, a dazzling array of [ Variant Artifact ] floated in the air.
The display stand also features detailed descriptions of the function and information of each [ Variant Artifact ].
Hela took small steps to the one closest to her.
A crystal artifact resembling a brocade pouch floats above, with several large gilded characters on the display stand detailing its name and functions.
" [Four-Dimensional Treasure Bag] (crossed out) [Mouth of the Void] An entrance to an alternate dimension, storing items within an alternate dimension approximately one hundred square meters in size."
"Nice one."
Hela grabbed the bag and shoved it into her mouth, while simultaneously manipulating the items that were almost full inside her body to put them into the bag.
She then spotted a strange little pistol, and as she walked over, she reached out to touch it.
A long iron bamboo pole, resembling a spear, pierced through the night sky and instantly penetrated Hela's wrist.
Then two more iron bamboos flew over, this time hitting Hela's heart and brain respectively.
A gust of wind swept in, and Hela looked closely and saw that it was [Silver Ghost]' s fist, which was bigger than her head.
Thump!!!
The punch landed squarely on Hela's head, but instead of sending her flying, it sent her spinning like a windmill.
With a punch landing, [Silver Ghost] twisted his deformed body and delivered another punch.
But this time, she was disappointed.
The fist lost sensation the instant it was thrown, and when the arm stopped, the fist had long since disappeared, replaced by a continuous gushing of purple blood from the forearm.
Hela froze, standing firmly in front of [Silver Ghost], a large hand still tightly clenched in her pink mouth.
He tilted his head back and swallowed the large hand whole.
As he chewed, Hela wiped the purple blood from the corner of his mouth.
"How strange. It's not human, Variant's not Variant, and it has an energy that's very similar to Power of the Source."
"Ah--!"
Slender, dense steel bamboo shoots continuously emerged from the severed arm, quickly reforming into a large hand that swung down with a punch.
Hela simply raised her slender arm slightly.
A surge of kinetic energy erupted between the two, creating a circular shockwave that seemed to explode.
Dense cracks radiated outwards from the two individuals.
Hela's arm, which was blocking the attack, trembled slightly, which surprised Hela.
[Silver Ghost] waved his hand, and a thick iron bamboo appeared in his other free hand.
Just as she thrust the iron bamboo in her hand towards Hela, a single iron bamboo identical to the one in [Silver Ghost] [Silver Ghost]'s hand suddenly pierced through Hela's abdomen.
[Silver Ghost] froze in mid-air.
"I didn't waste a single bamboo stalk you inserted into me."
Hela grabbed her opponent's fist with her other hand and, with incredible force, swung him up in the air like a hammer, slamming him hard into the ground.
The ground, already covered in cracks, shattered completely.
Two figures, one in silver and one in white, crashed through the building amidst rubble and fell through the air.
[Silver Ghost] also reacted at this moment, and seeing Hela falling beside him, he swung his fists like lightning without the slightest hesitation.
Fists rained down on his frail body.
Amidst the intense attack, a slender arm suddenly shot out and grabbed [Silver Ghost]' s face.
The immense force caused his fingers to become embedded in his flesh.
Hela gave it a powerful push, and [Silver Ghost] crashed back into the building like a missile.
Click!
As the [Silver Ghost] crashed down the floor below, all the glass in the building shattered simultaneously, sparkling and blooming in the night sky.
[Silver Ghost]'s body was completely embedded in the building, before she could struggle free herself.
A petite girl appeared before her in a flash.
Hela stepped on the other person's chest, gripped his arms which were as thick as her waist, and then pulled him outward with all her might.
"Ah--!"
Pfft!
Amidst [Silver Ghost] screams, her arm was ripped off by Hela and then swallowed whole by Hela.
It wasn't over yet. Hela grabbed her by the neck again, her gaze fixed on the jetpack that was propelling the entire floor upwards.
Grabbing the opponent's hand, it transformed into tentacles, and with a forceful slam, [Silver Ghost] was slammed onto the jetpack, pinning it down firmly.
The intense heat of several thousand degrees scorched the opponent's pale surface, causing [Silver Ghost] to continuously emit painful howls.
The tender shoots of the iron bamboo grew desperately from the broken arm, and after gathering into two hands, they grabbed the sprayer in front of them and tore it to shreds with a forceful pull.
Instantly, the entire building lost its balance, tilting and crashing heavily to the ground in a near-inverted manner, emitting a deafening roar.
Hela emerged from a pile of rubble, holding a strange gun in her hand, and curiously looked it over from left to right.
Suddenly, a cloud of dust erupted ahead.
[Silver Ghost] roared as it charged toward Hela.
Hela saw this as a perfect opportunity to test her new toy, so she raised the gun in her hand and pulled the trigger.
Click!
A soft click of the trigger was heard beside my ear, but no bullet flew out.
However, Hela could sense that the pistol in her hand, which looked like it came from the 1960s or 70s, was frantically absorbing her spiritual energy.
A bullet composed of structures emerged from the void, like a Wusheng arrow, and pierced through [Silver Ghost] solid thigh in an instant.
A hole the size of a fist appeared on [Silver Ghost] thigh, and Hela could even see the bright moonlight behind it through the hole.
[Silver Ghost] immediately lost his balance and fell to the ground with a thud.
"Hmm... okay."
"It has a long range and is invisible, making it useful for surprise attacks."
"It seems that the power is determined by the strength of one's mental energy."
This is not a good thing, since mental strength is arguably Hela's only weak point in terms of basic statistic.
Just then, Hela suddenly realized that the Power of the Source could actually be considered a higher level of spiritual power.
What would happen if we injected the Power of the Source into it?
Without hesitation, Hela raised her pistol again, aiming it at the [Silver Ghost] in front of her. Wisps of crimson mist seeped from her arm and into the pistol.
The muzzle of the pistol began to glow red, as if it had been heated, until it stained half of the gun.
Just then, a strange phenomenon occurred.
The disheveled body of the [Silver Ghost] in front of me began to swell again, and iron bamboo pierced through its skin, covering every inch of its flesh.
Within seconds, she had completely transformed into a ferocious monster that was nearly ten meters long and covered in iron bamboo.
"Ah..."
A deep voice echoed through the bamboo, and [Silver Ghost], whose body was like a silver mountain, vanished from the spot in a flash.
When it reappeared, it was already in front of Hela.
A gigantic hand, obscuring the sky, reached out to grab Hela, as if it were grabbing an ant, easily crushing it.
