CHAPTER 37: CHAPTER 14: GOD’S GRACE AS VAST AS THE SEA, GOD’S MIGHT AS FORMIDABLE AS A PRISON

[Can an Apostle... really possess such terrifying power?]

Appearing as if the descent of a god, exuding majesty in silence...

The dragon-headed giant stands proudly amidst the storm, even more oppressive than ordinary gods.

In the understanding of the Faceless, apostles are merely deputies of the gods.

But the current dragon-headed giant clearly breaks this perception of the Faceless, even making it momentarily feel the illusion of facing a True God.

Hu!

The storm that blows through all things transforms into a sky-reaching pillar, the immense figure reaching out to hold the heavens.

Under the gaze of that crying blood single eye in the sky.

The dragon-headed giant slowly raises its head, with divine radiance of majesty and benevolence hidden in its gaze.

"My lord... will grant you redemption!"

When the voice of the dragon-headed giant spreads across the world through the storm, the "Dragon Seal" on its body immediately shines.

Clattering!

In an instant, a massive chain formed entirely from storms appears out of thin air, and then surges towards the single eye in the sky from all directions.

Within this Storm Chain, the clearly visible "Dragon Seal" endows it with the power to suppress the Divine Abomination.

Unfortunately, the gigantic single eye in the sky is not just any Divine Abomination.

It is an unspeakable horror born from the confluence of the World Will and the Primordial Spirit’s power.

As the Storm Chain entwined itself, the gigantic single eye again shed tears of blood.

Drip... drop...

As if time has frozen, or all things have been sealed.

The one-eyed Divine Abomination forcibly breaks free from the Storm Chain with its own power.

At this moment, the sky seemed to have been shattered, appearing with giant rifts visible to the naked eye.

"Divine punishment cannot be escaped, divine grace cannot be refused!"

A flash of anger in its gaze, the dragon-headed giant raises its voice to the heavens once again.

In an instant, the entire world’s storm follows its will, rising into the sky, completely besieging the one-eyed Divine Abomination.

Clattering...

One, two, three...

When all eight Storm Chains wrapped around the one-eyed Divine Abomination.

The entire world’s storm had already disappeared, and everything regained tranquility.

Except for the one-eyed Divine Abomination in the sky, still weeping tears of blood, everything seemed to have returned to the initial state where nothing happened.

......................................................................

"Divine grace is like the sea, divine might is like a mountain."

Witnessing the entire process of the dragon-headed giant suppressing and sealing the one-eyed Divine Abomination, the Faceless couldn’t help but exclaim in awe.

In this terrifying Apostle, the Faceless saw grace and might that even typical gods do not possess.

That undeniable majesty is the true demeanor a god should have.

Until the silhouette of the dragon-headed giant gradually dissipated, the Faceless finally came back to its senses and turned to look at "Hua She."

"Great Under the Crown of the Snake God, let me handle the remaining ’Skeletons’!"

Having obtained Li Hao’s consent, the Faceless turned and summoned that ominous black flame again.

Beneath the burning of that ominous black flame, individuals made of skeletons did not turn to ash as they did before.

On the contrary, those Skeletons seemed to feel a long-lost warmth and willingly threw themselves into the black flame, awaiting suppression and sealing.

Whoosh!

After the Faceless finished dealing with all the Skeletons and withdrew the black flames.

A small palm-sized ominous flame suddenly appeared before "Hua She," revealing its complete state.

[Artifact: Calamity of Huo Dou]

[Type: Flame]

[Quality: Legendary]

[Function ①: As an assistant to some unknown Fire God, this ominous flame can switch freely between creatures and flame.]

[Function ②: A never-ending flame destined to bring calamity and misfortune, few things in this world can extinguish it.]

...

Just like the scroll the Faceless initially showed to Li Hao.

The screen of his phone suddenly displayed detailed information about the black flame.

Moreover, compared to those transaction items with only basic information, this Calamity of Huo Dou showcased its specific functions and roles in greater detail.

"What is this...?"

Looking at the Faceless with some confusion, Li Hao tentatively asked.

"Great Under the Crown of the Snake God, consider this a token of my goodwill!"

"Clearly, we invited you here first, yet let you experience so many unpleasant surprises."

"To express my apologies, this Calamity of Huo Dou is given to you as compensation."

After a slight pause in the tone, the Faceless continued to explain before Li Hao could object.

"Those Skeletons are now sealed within the Calamity of Huo Dou..."

"Whenever you need, you can release them at any time."

"Also, though this Calamity of Huo Dou is merely a ’Legendary Level’ Secret Treasure, its practicality is even higher than general ’Rare Treasure Level’ Secret Treasures."

As if to prove his point.

The Faceless manipulated the Calamity of Huo Dou, transforming it into a tall and mighty black hound while speaking.

"Woof!"

Glancing at the Faceless fondly.

The hound form of Huo Dou finally came to "Hua She," snuggling at its feet.

For Huo Dou, born of flames, loyalty is always its foremost trait.

In comparison, whether it’s the fire attribute destined to bring disaster and misfortune or other functions developed based on this, they are just some negligible byproducts.

......................................................................

"Huo Dou?"

Moments later, when Li Hao exited the Civilization Game’s operation interface and returned to reality.

A mass of black flame suddenly appeared and burned in his hand, almost giving Hua She a fright.

When Hua She reacted, the black flame had already leaped from Li Hao’s hand, quickly changing into a black puppy.

"What is this...?"

Surprised, Hua She looked at the little puppy baring its teeth at it, clearly not expecting that it could even see him.

It’s worth noting that Hua She was forcibly summoned to the real world by Li Hao, akin to a "Back Spirit."

The ability to see Hua She in this state naturally means the black puppy possesses amazing perceptive abilities.

"Huo Dou, for now, it’s barely qualified as a pet."

Compared to its original hound state, Huo Dou appearing in the real world was clearly downgraded by more than one level.

Let alone a tall and mighty hound, currently, Huo Dou doesn’t even look much larger than puppies just a few months old.

The only solace for Li Hao is that, as the Faceless said, Huo Dou possesses remarkable adaptability and practicality.

Even in the reality where his true body resides, it can still perform its functions as a "Legendary Level" Secret Treasure to a certain extent.

"Raising a Huo Dou to ward off evil and avoid disaster?"

"This might be a dream come true for many ancient dignitaries and nobles!"
