Chapter 294: Chapter 294 – Divine Skill

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Everyone was very excited to see what would happen next.

On the internet, there were intense discussions going on.

Would the Protagonist maintain his reason and act like a human?

Everyone felt incredibly curious.

After all, everyone desired an evolution like this.

If the price for such an evolution was to lose their reason and stop being a human, many people would be reluctant.

As everyone watched on, Chen Heng silently headed forwards.

Looking at the unlocked door, Chen Heng hesitated for a moment before walking in.

.

Chen Heng could see that there were still many buildings standing and some were even still operating.

Some of the machines there could operate by themselves, and if they were not damaged, they could operate for at least ten or so years.

As Chen Heng walked in, the scene before him and the scenes in his memories were roughly the same

However, Chen Heng could sense certain auras in the surroundings quite clearly.

People had indeed come to this place, and not too long ago either.

This was something that this body’s previous identity had not encountered before.

During the five years he had spent here, there had not been any outsiders. Even if there were some visiting creatures, they were usually mutated creatures.

He had not met any other survivors like him.

Apart from his parents, he had been the only one.

After his mother had passed away and his father had disappeared, he should be the only one who knew about this place.

“This aura…”

Sensing the aura lingering in the air, Chen Heng frowned and walked forwards.

Soon, he saw some clear footprints on the ground.

On the footprints, there were clear traces of blood as well.

It seemed that the person who had come in had been heavily injured.

Looking at those bloody footprints, Chen Heng frowned and continued onwards.

As he headed onwards, the footprints and blood seemed clearer and clearer as if they were quite recent.

Soon, Chen Heng arrived at a dark corner.

There was a dense smell of blood from the side, causing Chen Heng to frown.

As such, he turned and looked over.

He pressed the button for the lights, illuminating this area.

In the next moment, a figure darted out.

The figure had been very quick, but Chen Heng could tell that it was humanoid.

It seemed to be another survivor.

However, this person’s appearance was quite strange and gave off an aura that Chen Heng was not very comfortable with.

“What is that?”

“Is that a person?”

On the screen, the middle-aged man looked at that figure and seemed to think of something before falling silent.

On the screen, Chen Heng slowly headed forwards.

He slowly drew closer to the corner where that figure was.

There, a figure was squatting.

She looked like a girl and was trembling. Her body occasionally twisted, looking quite strange.

Blood was leaking out from her skin, slowly dripping out.

Her clothes were soaked with blood and were completely red, making it impossible to tell what color they had once been.

Squatting there, she wrapped her arms around her knees, continuously trembling.

“Are you… alright…” Chen Heng frowned and hesitated before asking.

However, he did not receive a reply.

As if she sensed Chen Heng’s approach, the girl slowly raised her head.

As she moved, everyone could see her appearance.

It was a very terrifying face.

Her face was that of a young girl’s, but her skin and muscles were very stiff. Her face was incredibly pale and had a bit of purple to it, looking like a corpse that had died for a while.

Her eyes were opened wide, as if her eyeballs were going to jump out from their sockets.

Trails of blood slowly ran down from her eyes, dyeing her face.

Even though she had a humanoid figure, her actions and appearance looked completely terrifying.

“Roarr!” a low roar sounded out.

The instant the girl raised her head, her body suddenly moved as she roared.

A pale arm quickly shot out towards Chen Heng’s neck, as if she wanted to snap Chen Heng’s neck in one go.

Puchi…

A clear sound rang out.

A slender arm stretched out and grabbed the girl’s arm before pressing it down.

The girl was slammed onto the ground by Chen Heng.

Following this, the girl lay on the ground and did not continue to attack; she lay there silently as she twitched.

“Kill…”

“Kill me…”

A weak and hoarse voice sounded out.

Hearing this, Chen Heng lowered his head and looked at the girl.

As if she sensed Chen Heng’s gaze, some signs of struggle appeared on the girl’s face, making her no longer seem like a corpse.

After what had just happened, she seemed to have regained some of her reason as she stared at Chen Heng and spoke softly.

“Kill me…” the hoarse voice once again sounded out.

Under the faint white light, the girl pleaded Chen Heng as she looked at him.

She looked like she was in great pain, and her body continuously spasmed as she moaned.

Even without experiencing what she was experiencing, just looking at her and hearing her voice made Chen Heng imagine what she was going through.

“As expected…”

On the screen, the middle-aged man lightly sighed and explained, “What we are seeing is a classic mutation reaction…

“After mutated creatures appeared, the earth’s environment has gradually changed.

“Because of the changes in the environment, many creatures went through changes, such as rats becoming Mutant Rats and humans becoming Corpse People…”

“This kind of situation is the last stage of the mutation…”

The middle-aged man pointed at the girl on the screen as he lightly sighed and said, “After going through the mutation, people’s organs will gradually melt and turn into blood water that seeps out from the skin. They will then continuously vomit, vomiting out their organs.

“In the end, even their brains will stop functioning, causing their corpses to turn into hollow shells.

“This has happened to many people before we relocated underground, and to date, there has been no cure.

“This girl is already at the terminal stage. Before the mutation began, she may have preserved some of her reason, so she found a place to hide.

“However, by now, she has lost most of her reason and will die soon.”

Speaking to there, the middle-aged man paused before continuing, “Even though it does not sound humane, if you are ever in this situation, you should directly act and kill them. This is not murder but a form of release.

“The mutation of humans is incredibly painful, and it is many times more painful than even a mother giving birth.

“As such, it is best to give the other person the quick release of death in a situation like this.”

He sighed and continued, “In fact, after mutated humans have died, you still need to be careful and burn their corpses to be safe.

“Otherwise, it is possible that they will become a Corpse Person.

“I’m sure that we will see many similar situations when we return to the surface of the world.

“However, right now, let us see what our Protagonist will do.”

Speaking to there, he began to watch with everyone else.

Everyone in the underground world fell silent as their emotions became quite heavy.

What they were seeing had been edited and some places were mosaiced.

Despite this, everyone could clearly tell how much pain and despair the girl was feeling.

Humans could also mutate, and from how the researchers saw it, Chen Heng had gained his great power through such a mutation.

However, evidently, such mutations were quite rare.

For most ordinary people, once they went through mutations, they would turn out like this girl.

After all, for most people, they did not have the luck and willpower to go through a mutation like that.

Standing there, and looking at the girl writhing in pain, Chen Heng fell silent for a while.

In the end, as everyone watched on, he silently stretched out his hand.

“Let’s give it a try…” he thought to himself.

He could not do much, but whether out of pity or other motives, he would at least try to help her.

As if it sensed his thoughts, his Divinity representing Light began to glow, and large amounts of energy appeared.

A Divine Skill began to be gathered and released.

Following this, as Chen Heng watched on, a faint white light spread out from Chen Heng’s body.

Soon, the white light covered the girl’s whole body.

Following this, a shocking scene unfolded.

As the Divine Skill’s energy was released, changes began to happen in the girl’s body.

In the blink of an eye, her aura began to change as that strange aura was completely banished.

Within her body, her ruined organs began to recover, and the blood flowing out from her body stopped.

Under the white light, the girl’s body no longer trembled and spasmed, and she seemed to calm down.

She continued to lay there, and her eyes closed.

Her pale face seemed to somewhat recover; even though it was still pale, it was no longer corpse-like.

She silently lay on the ground as if she had peacefully fallen asleep.

By now, Chen Heng’s Divine Skill’s light gradually disappeared.

After getting rid of that strange aura, the girl’s appearance had become much more normal.

Now, she looked like a normal person and was completely different from before.

It seemed that the Divine Skill’s effects were very useful in a situation like this, and it could preserve her life and help her recover.

The price was that Chen Heng used up much of the divine energy in his body.

However, that was not a big deal.

By now, because of the massive amounts of faith threads from this world, the divine energy in his body was massively increasing almost every moment.

Even though most of the faith threads were quite incorporeal, they were enough for Chen Heng to gather massive amounts of divine energy.

If he wanted to, he would be able to use high-level healing skills whenever he wanted without worrying that he would run out of divine energy.

This massive amount of divine energy was the source of his confidence.

“This feeling…”

After saving the girl, Chen Heng paused.

At that moment, Chen Heng sensed some changes in his body.

After he had saved that girl, massive amounts of faith energy poured into him.

His massive amount of faith energy once again increased as more and more faith threads appeared.

The amount of faith threads he had gathered in the past few days could not compare to the amount that he had just gained.

This kind of change caused Chen Heng to freeze as he felt quite shocked.

“Incredible, incredible!”

In front of the control desk, the researchers seemed to go crazy as they stared.

As they looked at Chen Heng, their minds seemed to go blank.

“Just how did he save a mutated human?”

“Could it be that a successfully evolved human not only has great power but can even do such things?”
