Chapter 266
Chapter 267 Narrow Roads
But the moment they stepped onto the battlefield, a massive silver eye in the sky had already locked onto them.
Under Celestial Gaze, nothing could hide.
A person could disguise their appearance but not their soul aura, scent, gait, or voice.
Almost instantly, Nighthowl detected them.
He alerted Joanna at once.
Joanna also activated Celestial Gaze, quickly locking onto all five.
“Well, well. Small universe,” Joanna muttered.
She observed them through Celestial Gaze.
Four months had passed. For three of those months, Joanna had been cut off from the outside world, so she didn’t know much about what happened with the bounty hunters.
But judging from what she saw, these people hadn’t improved much.
Or rather, compared to Joanna, they were far behind.
The last time they met, Viola had been a truly dangerous presence. If she’d wanted to escape back then, Joanna couldn’t have stopped her without help.
Viola had grown stronger too, but just like how attributes stop increasing after absorbing too much Origin Energy,
Her growth was limited.
Or perhaps that growth had been poured into Lucas and the others. They now looked like ordinary Level 60 professionals.
In Joanna’s eyes, they were too weak.
She could crush them.
Still, to prevent resurrection tricks and other evil god methods, Joanna decided to use a different approach.
“Dream Invasion p>
1/4
In an instant, all five froze in place.
Joanna immediately took control of the dream.
Inside the dream, Viola and the others approached the battlefield and soon saw the petrified ground.
They were ecstatic.
“Quick, absorb the petrify power p>
The five of them began absorbing it. In just a single day, they finished successfully.
All five gained petrify abilities, their strength surging.
After that, they left the Divine Battlefield.
At that moment, a terrifying suction force appeared, and a horrifying statue manifested before them.
It was the same statue from the Bloodmoon dungeon.
“Greetings, evil god p>
Viola dropped to her knees instantly.
Lucas and the others followed, trembling under the god’s authority.
“Hand over all your belongings p>
Evil gods were greedy. That fit perfectly with their expectations.
The dream remained stable.
Viola immediately presented everything she carried.
Lucas and the others hesitated but still handed over their spatial rings.
Each time they offered items, the evil god granted them blessings.
“More!” the evil god roared.
Viola understood at once and removed her equipment.
“An offering to the evil god p>
2/4
She respectfully presented her gear.
Lucas, Cedric, Bruce, and Neil followed suit.
Their faces twisted in pain.
These were Gold-tier items they’d struggled to obtain.
Joanna was speechless.
That’s it?
Viola was slightly better, wearing Dark Gold-tier gear, but even combined, it probably wasn’t worth a billion.
They were dirt
poor.
Joanna pressed on.
“Give me the Petrification Law p>
The ‘evil god’ spoke again. “I will grant you eternal life p>
Lucas froze.
“Evil god, don’t we already have eternal life? As long as we die, we can revive inside
Joanna’s eyes
widened.
The ‘evil god’ in the dream was her.
She never expected Lucas and the others to have such an absurd ability.
A contract with an evil god means immortality?
Or endless resurrection?
Then how am I supposed to kill them?
The dream began to tremble, as if they were sensing something was wrong.
Joanna immediately patched it.
your
womb p>
The ‘evil god’ roared, “How would I remember you ants? Hand over the Petrification Law p>
That roar, combined with the fear embedded in the dream, made them comply at once.
3/4
Lucas and the others produced a fake Petrification Law, illusions they’d obtained inside the dream’s battlefield.
But Viola’s Petrification Law was real.
In reality, she drew out her Petrification Law. It condensed into a rainbow-hued modifier, and Joanna took it.
The instant Joanna did, Viola’s body began to change.
Without the Petrification Law, her arms turned to stone and fell to the ground with a sharp crack.
Then her legs followed, collapsing beneath her.
That fall jolted her awake.
“What p>
Her eyes flew open as she stared at Joanna standing before her and at the gray, faintly glowing substance in Joanna’s hand.
It was her Petrification Law, now reduced to a petrification modifier.
