Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead-Chapter 528 - 261: Malice
The captured Revelation member nodded slightly, his body surface filled with fine cracks, so much so that a simple nod caused multiple places on his skin to burst open.
A middle-aged man stood on the mountain, arms extended forward, ten fingers spread wide, with the index fingers and thumbs of both hands forming a frame.
He framed the distant city area within his hands and took a deep breath.
The breath was so deep that his lungs inflated like balloons, his chest circumference nearly doubled.
Hoo~
The middle-aged man exhaled the air he inhaled towards the Revelation member, the resulting gust almost blowing away all of the Revelation member’s exposed skin.
"I can smell the lingering scent of the Earthly Divine Kingdom. The guy who snatched it is a novice, lacking in mysticism prowess; it’s been so long yet he hasn’t been able to turn the Earthly Divine Kingdom into his own."
He looked disdainfully at the dying Revelation member on the ground, took out a canister of special adrenaline, and injected it into the other’s body.
This potion can make its user immune to D-Level and below sustained damage and remain conscious for an hour.
However, there’s a small side effect, which is that it only immunizes against damage but not against pain. In fact, it amplifies pain tenfold, even hundredfold.
The amplified pain cannot be neutralized with other potions, and often the harm it causes to the user outweighs the damage it prevents.
As a survival potion, it’s a failure, but as a means of interrogation, it’s simply too effective.
The kind of pain it causes surpasses the limits of ordinary human endurance. Looking at the Revelation member whose facial features were contorted in pain, one would obediently comply, even if asked to post an unedited browsing history to social media.
The middle-aged man asked, "When was your Earthly Divine Kingdom taken?"
"F-f-early May," the Revelation member replied with difficulty.
A look of satisfaction appeared on the middle-aged man’s face. He had repeatedly asked the member about this from the beginning, and regardless of the pressure applied, the answers were always consistent, which likely meant the truth.
The middle-aged man’s name is You Feipeng, a second-level Wanderer of the Management Bureau, Level 48, Evolution Sect.
He is executing routine patrol tasks in the real world, ensuring the world’s order remains stable enough to prevent Evil God believers or Wild Transcendents from disrupting it.
Typically, the travel limit that the Pillar of the Present World can accommodate is Level 45. However, he is somewhat special, possessing a Blue Level Title, "Escapee," which reduces the suppression of system rules and plane rules on him.
Theoretically, as long as he does not exceed Level 50, he can freely travel between the Desolate Realm and the Realm of Reason through the Pillar of the Present World.
Though the Blue Title is the lowest rank title, a title nonetheless.
With this title and his "Innate Patrol Saint Body," he can outpace other members of the same rank to become a second-level Wanderer.
Previously, Gu Feng was guarding the Underground Shelter with strength comparable to You Feipeng, and even with the merit of guarding it, he only managed to become a third-level Wanderer.
Upon returning to the real world, You Feipeng planned to do as before, casually kill some mice, enjoy the praise from weaker ones at various branch bureaus, and guide ambitious female members through instance strategies at night.
Then take on a bit of private work, earn a handsome sum, and delightfully return to the Realm of Reason.
Though this time was slightly different, he seemed to have hit the jackpot.
Wanghai City was the domain of the Order Sect, so he wasn’t particularly enthusiastic about it. Before coming here, he detoured through Wanming City.
Unexpectedly, during his casual stroll in Wanming City, he discovered a rat nest, not only killing many small rats but also catching a big rat.
The big rat, the Revelation member he had tortured to near death, was the person in charge in Wanming City. It’s said, apart from an elusive Bishop, he holds the highest status in several nearby cities.
You Feipeng has a hobby of tormenting the rats he finds, torturing them while asking, "Do you confess?"
He would only ask if they confess without stating the question, leaving it up to the rats’ discretion.
Regardless of what they confess, he never stops interrogating.
But this time, he encountered an unexpected surprise—the big rat truly disclosed a major secret: a ritual for the Earthly Divine Kingdom was planned by Revelation in Wanghai City over half a month ago, only to be ruined by an unknown individual.
Not only did the person ruin the event, but they also tipped off Wanghai City’s branch, directly exposing the Revelation’s hideout in Wanghai City.
The branch bureaus from several nearby cities launched a joint operation, nearly capturing the mysterious Bishop.
The news immediately brightened You Feipeng, invigorating him.
The Earthly Divine Kingdom is a wonderful thing; with his mysticism expertise, a slight modification could allow the designated God to descend.
Coincidentally, besides being a Wanderer of the Management Bureau, You Feipeng holds another identity.
Outer member of the Bright Society.
The Bright Society has harsh recruitment criteria; with his conditions, he can’t even mix as a regular member, let alone a core member; this outer membership was reluctantly granted because he could frequently return to reality and do private work for them.
But if he could offer a modified Earthly Divine Kingdom, that achievement would surely be enough to promote him to a regular member.
