Chapter 227

At this moment, the orange-yellow light was no longer below Su Chen, but appeared directly in front of him, seemingly guiding Su Chen to continue forward.

Su Chen stretched a bit, and his body, still somewhat unaccustomed to being suspended in the air for so long, continued to move forward.

Slowly, the orange-yellow light in front of them seemed to begin to brighten.

It wasn't because the Soul Stone had increased his speed, but because the black, death-filled mist surrounding Su Chen was gradually thinning.

Then, a figure finally appeared in front of Su Chen.

At this moment, the black mist seemed to be guided once again, and slowly dissipated.

"It's you?"

"Is it you?"

Both Su Chen and the group of people opposite him simultaneously expressed their surprise.

However, Su Chen's voice was simply filled with surprise.

It wasn't even very strong; it seemed to have become somewhat expected.

The group opposite them were not only filled with astonishment, but one could even faintly hear the sound of teeth grinding together.

"They're all acquaintances..."

Su Chen spoke slowly, drawing out each word in his voice.

As the thick black fog gradually dissipated, the surrounding environment finally came into view.

A Void nothing exists except for a clean ground...

The surroundings were still shrouded in darkness, but under the light of the Soul Stone, everything around them was clearly visible.

The orange-yellow light, which was normally dim, appeared exceptionally bright at this moment.

In front of Su Chen were a group of very familiar people.

"David..."

"Ego..."

"Thor..."

"Malekith..."

In Su Chen's memory, one name after another appeared.

Those enemies that Su Chen had once killed reappeared before him.

Their bodies had an abnormal translucency, but their eyes remained fierce.

Seeing that look in his eyes, Su Chen actually showed a hint of satisfaction.

"That's right, that's how it should be. That's what the dead should look like."

Su Chen nodded slightly.

"They are vicious and cruel, wishing they could kill me, but powerless to do so."

Su Chen observed these long-dead people with resentful expressions with great interest.

"These are the dead trash I used to know!"

Su Chen's eyes suddenly lit up.

The Energy Particle Body, which was already in an activated state, was even more restless.

They were killed by Su Chen.

So Su Chen could just wipe them out again right now!

"I'm going to kill you, because you are neither alive nor dead right now!!"

"You're dead too! Now it's time for you to taste the pain we once suffered!"

After their initial surprise, these dead people suddenly unleashed a terrifying resentment!

400

And behind the resentment lies a fear that goes unnoticed!

How could they not be afraid when facing the very people who had once wiped them out?

The two sides are on the verge of conflict!

"Alright, put away your energy. This is a transitional place I painstakingly created, and it's extremely fragile."

But at that moment, a lazy voice rang out from the Void of darkness beside them.

A woman even taller Hela, dressed in a black gown, slowly appeared.

Although she is tall, her figure is almost perfectly proportioned, but looking further upwards...

Above the pristine white neck was a snow-white skull!

Upon seeing the woman's appearance, the dead man who had been filled with resentment suddenly fell silent.

The Goddess of Death has officially arrived!

The Goddess of Death did not look at the fearful dead, nor were her words addressed to this group.

From beginning to end, the goddess only looked at Su Chen.

I thought you'd be more surprised to see me.

Suddenly, a glint of light appeared in the empty eye sockets of the Goddess of Death as she scrutinized Su Chen.

"It perfectly matches my definition of death, so there's no need to be surprised."

Su Chen gently shook his head.

Chapter 227

"Your words really make me happy. It wasn't for nothing that I prepared this place that doesn't exist just for you."

Upon hearing what Su Chen said, the Goddess of Death seemed somewhat pleased.

The Goddess of Death turned gracefully, pointed to the pitch-black Void, and spoke to Su Chen.

Where is this place?

Seeing the Soul Stone still shining brightly in mid-air, Su Chen asked a question.

"Here? This place shouldn't exist in the first place. Spatially, there's nothing here, but time actually flows through it."

The Goddess of Death spoke with considerable pride at this point.

After all, the Goddess of Death is unique in creating this place.

"Compared to that Knowhere in your universe, this is the true Knowhere!"

The Goddess of Death waved her hand.

"No one may enter this Knowhere without my permission, and no one may leave Knowhere, except for the Soul Stone."

As the Goddess of Death spoke, she gently pointed to the dim, yellowish stone in mid-air.

"In fact, the Soul Stone is the only one of the six gems that is related to the Realm of Death. Both its Guardians and the place where the gem was obtained have some small connection to the Realm of Death. It is precisely for this reason that the Knowhere also exists here."

The Goddess of Death spoke very seriously.

The realm of the dead is inhabited by the souls of those who have died.

This will inevitably create some subtle relationship with the Soul Stone.

This planet is actually just a small dock leading to the Realm of Death.

It is precisely for this reason that someone who had already died was able to stand in this world again as a guardian.

Similarly, within this dock, the Goddess of Death could also use some subtle methods to create this Knowhere.

It is neither a world of life nor a world of death.

It's a Knowhere of half-life and half-death...

"Here, I don't have to worry about precious time or carefully choosing my words; instead, I can share everything I've seen and heard with you..."

The Goddess of Death quietly approached Su Chen's side.

"I came here for only one reason; I don't want to know anything else, and I'm too lazy to find out."

Su Chen remained calm.

"No, no, no, I think there are some things you would still be interested in."

The Goddess of Death gently shook her head.

"Moreover, these things are also related to what I'm about to say and what you want to know."

The Goddess of Death gently extended her finger.

From the neck up, it's a pure white skull, but from the neck down, it's a model's body with perfect proportions.

Her slender fingers were painted with a light red nail polish, and at that moment, one finger was pointing at the group of people who were bowing their heads in front of Su Chen.

These former defeated opponents of Su Chen have bowed their heads ever since the arrival of the Goddess of Death.

They exuded a fear that was almost tangible.

"What does this bunch of good-for-nothings have to do with what I want to know?"

Su Chen frowned.

"Of course they're related."

The Goddess of Death chuckled softly.

"All the enemies you defeated head-on did not go to the Realm of Death, but were all left in this Knowhere, including this one."

The Goddess of Death turned slightly and pointed at a white-haired man.

"I made a bet with this guy; he lost it, so he can never set foot in the Realm of Death."

The Goddess of Death spoke calmly.

"This is truly a failure that everyone envies."

Su Chen sneered from the side.

"Of course, I cannot break this bet, but this place offers me an excellent arrangement, where they will enjoy this Eternity Void day after day, year after year."

The Goddess of Death's voice remained calm, but it carried a chilling undertone.

How terrifying it would be to trap them in a Knowhere that doesn't even exist in the universe...

Day after day, year after year.

There was no chance of gaining freedom, no chance of seeing the light again; even the most determined prisoners would go mad.

"From the moment you defeat them and they die, they will remain here forever. Though fragile and Void, stripped of all their power, they are utterly incapable of resisting this place."

The Goddess of Death spoke calmly.

"I know you want to inflict the cruelest punishment in the world, but death is never the final punishment, it's just the beginning. Is that enough?"

As she spoke, the Goddess of Death looked at Su Chen again.

"That suits me perfectly."

Su Chen nodded slightly.

Su Chen banished his subordinates to the abyss of death simply because he couldn't find a better way to punish them.

If there were any, Su Chen wouldn't have let them face death so easily.

But now, Su Chen took to heart what the Goddess of Death was saying.

Death is merely the beginning of a new round of punishment; it's truly quite wonderful.

"But why did you go to such lengths to do this?"

But then Su Chen looked at the Goddess of Death and asked a question in return.

"You have contributed the most life force to me in the entire universe, so you deserve this special place that I have built especially for you."
