#137 - Chapter 137 007 Blessing? Worse than hell!
"What's that sound?"
Deep within the sub-dimension, two figures looked up almost simultaneously.
Their gazes met, and in that instant, a heavy atmosphere permeated between them, as if the air itself was thickened by the tension.
After a short while, a male voice broke the brief silence, echoing through the empty space, carrying a hint of annoyance and dissatisfaction: "Sounds like... the Gates of Hell are being broken."
Another voice chuckled softly, a woman's voice.
"That's a really useless watchdog. It's not capable, eats too much, and can't even guard the door properly! I told the Goddess a long time ago that we should replace it."
The man sneered.
"Heh, didn't the Goddess say she'd replace it with you, you fiery female dog? You didn't want to."
The woman pouted and smiled charmingly: "Who would I burn for in this godforsaken place every day? If it were somewhere else, I'd be happy to, hee hee~"
"Alright, what are you burning in front of me for?"
"Hurry up and finish the task the Goddess assigned and go out for a look... It's a good thing we came here today, otherwise if something happened to the Soul Cage, you and I would be in deep trouble..."
As their voices gradually faded into the depths of darkness, the sub-dimension was once again submerged by the endless wails of souls.
......
Boom!!
A deafening sound, like thunder, exploded on the edge of Hell as Wang Chu kicked the Gates of Hell away!
The powerful impact caused the surrounding air to vibrate.
The scene behind the door gradually became clear!
However, the scene before him... completely exceeded his expectations!
In Wang Chu's original imagination,
behind the Gates of Hell should be a purgatory of blood and fire, filled with the miserable cries of souls.
Like the eighteen levels of Hell!
But before him...
A vast and dim space, with countless soul bodies busily shuttling through it.
These soul bodies, compared to the blurred shadows seen outside the door before, now appeared much clearer.
One could even vaguely identify the racial characteristics they possessed in life.
There were humans, elves, and soul bodies of various races!
But without exception, their faces were filled with numbness and emptiness.
Their eyes were dull as they mechanically engaged in various heavy labors, as if they were soulless zombies, merely repeating actions in this dark world through some kind of instinct.
From time to time, Abyssal NPCs with the title of Soul Jailer would pass through them!
These jailers were covered in a layer of cold, hard black armor, revealing only a pair of eyes that emitted a faint, cold light.
They held long whips in their hands, and the whips flickered with eerie light!
If a soul body suddenly became lazy and stopped moving, they would lash out with the whip!
The whip struck the soul body, making a crisp "crack" sound, accompanied by the painful wails of the souls, and they would continue to work numbly.
What was striking was that.
As these soul bodies continued to labor, wisps of black aura, like the extracted essence of the soul, slowly emerged from their bodies and then slowly gathered towards the depths of the space.
Damn it??
What the hell is this place?
Wang Chu's eyes widened, his face full of astonishment.
That is to say, it is very likely that the Soul Goddess created the so-called Soul Cage, imprisoning countless souls here...
Then forcing them to work... to work for her??
Hiss...
The origin of 007's blessings?
Tsk tsk...
If that's really the case, then again, this really is hell!!
It's even more hellish than hell!
It's bad enough to be a worker before death, but after death, you become a soul and still have to work 007??
What a damn world!
However, as the Gates of Hell were destroyed by Wang Chu.
This place seemed to be changing.
What changed were not the soul bodies that were already laboring behind this door.
But as the door was destroyed, the black mist above the door also dissipated!
Those new souls that kept pouring in had not been baptized by the black mist, and seemed to still possess a certain degree of consciousness!
They began to scream and run everywhere, and the Soul Jailer NPCs began to chase them frantically.
"So... that black mist is similar to Meng Po soup, or a filter or something?"
"As long as the soul is baptized by the black mist, it will be controlled and become a member of these 007 blessings?"
How terrifying!!
It's a hell for workers!
Wang Chu clicked his tongue twice.
His figure casually shuttled between the soul bodies, carefully observing the movements of each soul body.
Some were carrying bricks, some were plowing the fields, and some were coding...
These soul bodies seemed to be doing the most frequent and repetitive work they did in life.
This coding one is too miserable.
Hmm?
Wang Chu's gaze was suddenly drawn to a corner, and a strange expression appeared on his face.
Why is there someone jacking off?
Jacking off so much, no wonder you died so young.
As he continued to delve deeper.
Wang Chu frowned... He seemed to see a few somewhat familiar figures.
"Isn't this..."
Just as Wang Chu was about to retrieve a clue from the depths of his memory, Elsa's eager voice came from the Fire-tipped Spear.
"Sister Ling!!"
Wang Chu instantly reacted, it was the companions who were in the same team as Elsa when he first met her!!
At the time, he watched Elsa bury these companions one by one, but he didn't expect that their souls had not been laid to rest, but had appeared here!
Looking around, this area was mainly populated by a group of elven soul bodies!
"This..."
It all connects, it all connects!
No wonder I felt that the World Tree was not quite right when I saw the memory fragments before!
It turned out that the souls of the elves after death did not return to the World Tree!
Instead, they were all intercepted by the Soul Goddess and brought here!
But...
Intercepting these elven soul bodies to do 007's life, what can the Soul Goddess gain?
After thinking about it, Wang Chu couldn't figure it out.
He couldn't touch the wisps of black aura that emerged from the soul bodies.
Just then, an abrupt male voice suddenly rang out in this dim space.
"So it's you... who destroyed the Gates of Hell?"
