Chapter 579
In the Multiverse, there was such a world.
In this world, there was such a legend.
At the beginning of the world's birth, a great god was born. He was an omnipresent god who resided in all things. The infinitely big and infinitely small god, Karakalis, created this world.
He gave birth to many evil gods and mythical creatures. After feeling bored, he fell into a deep slumber.
His many children played in this world, and gradually, there were conflicts between them. Thus, war began.
Since it was war, there was naturally life and death. The flesh and blood of the evil god of death spread across the land, and humans were born from it.
Humans were weak and powerless, and even found it difficult to look directly at those evil gods. At first, they only existed as food and slaves for those mythical creatures to order around.
Until a greater war broke out. The war of the evil gods woke up the sleeping Karakalis, and the angry god sealed his children and slaughtered a large number of mythical creatures.
On the contrary, humans survived until the end with their powerful reproductive ability and tenacious life force, gradually becoming the masters of the world.
There were very few mythical creatures, but every time they appeared, they would cause a huge disaster, not to mention those evil gods that were sealed.
"Ever since the World Wailing Incident more than ten years ago, those evil gods have been stirring. From the Mythical creature we captured this time, we learned a piece of news. It's the eldest son of Karakalis, the God of Black Death, Tolitos, showing signs of awakening. We have to find out the reason and seal it again. Otherwise, it will be a calamity for the entire world."
In the conference room, all the rulers of the world were gathered. Having reached their current position, they naturally knew the truth of the world.
The world was the world of the evil gods, and they were just slaves who lived in it and stole the position of their masters.
Once their masters woke up, their power would completely turn into bubbles.
Therefore, the funding for the Mythical Response Team had never stopped. It was to eliminate the mythical creatures hidden in the human world and ensure that those evil gods would not awaken again.
"The last time the God of Black Death's seal loosened, it caused the Black Death that spread throughout the world and caused a terrifying plague. This time, we must not let this happen again."
"Understood, we will fully fund this operation, Chief Sampson." All the rulers expressed their support.
"I will let those monsters know that we are the masters of this world now." The one who spoke was the director of [Legend]'s D.E.R division, a muscular middle-aged man with short silver-white hair, stood up and spoke in a forceful tone.
After this meeting, the [Mythology D.E.R] began to operate at full capacity. Cultural relics and documents from all over the world were moved here to search for the place where the Black Death God was sealed.
As the Eldest Son of the Gods, Tolitos' seal was extremely special. The location of his seal was constantly changing. It was a dark hole in the ground, known as the Space of Inversion. It could appear in any corner of the world. To find the entrance of the hole, one had to determine its location.
Through the historical records of the locations of the sealed holes, [Mythology] had designed a calculation formula to find its current location.
Chief Sampson's eyes were cold. This was a difficult task, and any mistake would be a huge disaster.
Many mythical items were brought to deal with the situation. These items all had various special and dangerous abilities. Therefore, they were sealed for a very long time. They would only use these items in times of crisis.
Of course, there were also things that could be used frequently.
One was known as a Divine Rune. It was a special mark that represented the deity, Karakalis. Due to its past deeds, Mythical creatures and evil gods would instinctively retreat when they saw these marks. This was a form of reverence for the deity.
However, this kind of mark was not completely reliable. It could only be regarded as a form of intimidation. When the other party was indifferent, they would give the Gods face and retreat, but sometimes they would encounter mythical creatures that did not give them face.
The second type was called the Divine Sword. The ore of the Divine Sword was taken from the bones of the Evil God. It was a weapon forged by the mythical creatures during the ancient war between the Gods. Humans had yet to master the craft of forging, and those who came into contact with it would be tortured by the dreams of the Evil God for the rest of their lives. However, only this kind of weapon could harm mythical creatures and Evil Gods. It was also the mythical item with the least side effects that humans could use other than the Divine Rune.
The third type was life. Using life as the price to fight against mythical creatures. This was the awareness of every agent who joined the [Mythology D.E.R].
Hard work paid off. Three days later, they finally found the entrance to the Inversion. They were now on an island, and the seal had begun to loosen. All the creatures on the island were dead.
Without much hesitation, the agents set off. They brought a large number of Divine Runes and Divine Swords, as well as many dangerous items that were sealed. They were wearing protective suits, but not long after they stepped onto the island, they took off the clothes that hindered them.
"Reporting to headquarters. All of us have been infected with the plague. The team doctor has determined that it will break out in three hours at most."
The human creations appeared especially powerless at that moment, but the D.E.R had long expected this. The powers of the Mythical creatures were still manageable, and human objects could barely resist them. However, the powers of the Evil Gods exceeded human understanding.
"Enter the Inversion in three hours and search for the problem," Sampson said in a deep voice. He knew that this pair of agents had been sacrificed. They had been infected by the plague of the Evil God. Humans had no way to save them, and they could only use their last bit of value to seek out more information.
"Understood!" The agents replied. They had long been prepared to sacrifice their lives for the mission. All of them had extremely firm willpower. This way, they could maintain a certain degree of clarity when facing the Evil God.
The agents found the entrance to the Inversion on the island with the understanding that they would die.
There were already some Minions belonging to Tolitos moving about. They were a Mythical creature, the Ratmen.
They stood like humans, with a pair of long yellow teeth exposed. They wore tattered, yellow-green stained robes that revealed their long black fur. A long tail was propped up behind them, and they held sword-like weapons in their ape-like palms.
They guarded the entrance of the cave, crouching low with ferocious expressions. As they moved, a gray aura emitted from their bodies, bringing with it an ominous aura.
"That's the special ability of the Ratmen, the Plague Aura. Any action they take will emit this aura. As long as humans come into contact with this aura, they will be infected with the plague. Before they die, they will be tortured by the painful illusions brought about by the plague.
"In addition, as Mythical creatures, the Ratmen also have the Mythical characteristics of Mythical creatures. Mortal weapons are unable to harm them. Prolonged contact with them will cause a change in human cognition.
"With our trained willpower, approaching them for five minutes might cause our rationality to collapse. Therefore, we have to end the battle within five minutes, understand?" The agents arranged the battle plan and charged forward without hesitation.
And at that moment, outside the void of this world, a figure was slowly approaching.
