470: The Lost Mortal Realm
Michael's roars and Chaos's cackles echoed within the Mental Hospital of Gods.
Finally, the progress bar above Michael's head stopped changing.
[Michael's Treatment Progress 0%]
"Now, I can begin the treatment."
Chaos placed his finger on Michael's forehead, and the terrifying Cthulhu Divine Power, amplified by the Mental Hospital of Gods, became incredibly powerful.
Michael desperately tried to resist, but no matter how he exerted himself, his body seemed locked, unable to move an inch.
As Chaos's power continuously poured in, the progress bar above Michael's head began to change.
[Michael's Treatment Progress 1%, Reward Draw Conditions Met, Randomly Drawing Michael's Divinity Ability...]
Hearing the emotionless mechanical voice, Chaos's mood grew even more triumphant, while fear began to appear in Michael's eyes.
This disgusting fellow actually wanted to extract his abilities? No, he absolutely could not let him extract the Mortal Divine Realm's abilities.
However, with his treatment progress only at 1%, his own Divine Power was greatly weakened, and coupled with Chaos's power suppression, even if Michael wanted to do something, he had no way.
Lord save him! Now, Michael could only hope his luck wasn't too bad.
A virtual turntable appeared before Chaos and Michael. The turntable was divided into dozens of areas, and then, it began to spin rapidly.
Chaos and Michael both stared intently at the turntable, anticipating the final result. Eventually, the pointer stopped in a certain area.
[Angel Affinity: As a Seraphim of pure body, all beings of time will subconsciously feel affinity and trust towards you. Your future is bright, and luck will favor you.]
Seeing the result of this ability draw, Chaos's expression was a bit strange, while Michael breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it seemed that this time, luck was not on Cthulhu's side.
Immediately after, a soft white light flew from the turntable and merged into Chaos's body.
At the same time, on the virtual turntable, the area that originally belonged to [Angel Affinity] also disappeared.
Chaos felt the new ability within his body and shook his head, "Alright, although this ability is good, it's not what I want.
My friend, it seems your treatment must continue."
Evil power once again erupted from Chaos, and Michael felt as if his body had fallen into an ice cellar.
Coldness, gloom, anger, confusion, and various other sensations mixed together, almost making his head explode.
Michael clenched his teeth, constantly admonishing himself in his heart to hold on, to not let his mind fall into Chaos, and to absolutely not let Chaos obtain the power of the Mortal Divine Realm.
3%, 9%, 15%... The progress bar on Michael's forehead gradually increased, but his mind became more and more chaotic.
This feeling of having one's mind manipulated at will was truly terrifying.
No, he had to find something to anchor his spirit, otherwise, within this Mental Hospital, he would surely become Chaos's Puppet.
Suddenly, a figure popped into Michael's mind. After a moment of hesitation, a trace of sadness and remorse welled up in Michael's heart.
"I'm sorry, Lord, to stop Cthulhu, please forgive my betrayal."
Michael silently repented in his heart, and then began to pray to the image in his mind.
"Great Lord of the Ghost Country, please accept your most devout believer, accept Michael's Power Of Faith..."
On the Sea of Mist, Song Zhong, who had just left, suddenly felt something. At this moment, within the Ghost Country, a magnificent Power Of Faith, from an unknown direction, surged into the golden ocean of faith.
That Power Of Faith was so immense that it stirred up tumultuous waves across the entire ocean of faith.
The residents of the Ghost Country all looked up, watching the anomaly in the sky.
In the center of the ocean of faith, a void suddenly appeared, and the surrounding Power Of Faith instantly rose, spreading outwards in a circular ring.
From a distance, it looked as if someone had dropped an atomic bomb into the ocean.
Song Zhong stopped, and Zhou Ping and the others also stopped.
"Lord of the Country, did something happen?"
Song Zhong pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said, "You all return to Great Xia first. When I need you, you will naturally know."
Zhou Ping and the others did not ask further. After bowing to Song Zhong, they headed in the direction of Great Xia.
After Zhou Ping and the others left, Song Zhong looked out at the endless sea. His eyes were exceptionally deep, as if piercing through the mist, seeing something.
"Michael? It seems the Three Pillar Gods have indeed all awakened."
Song Zhong raised his hand, sketched a few lines, then lowered it, and murmured:
"Imprisoned in the Mental Hospital of Gods by Chaos? Indeed, these things flowing down from higher dimensions are a bit troublesome to invade.
Forget it, Michael, since you don't want Chaos to take the power of the Mortal Divine Realm, are you prepared to pay the price?"
Within the Mental Hospital of Gods, Michael, enduring the mental pollution, was almost on the verge of collapse.
He was already having trouble distinguishing what was real and what was illusory.
Just as he was about to lose consciousness, he suddenly heard a voice in his mind.
"Hehehe, Michael, are you prepared to pay the price?"
This sentence echoed repeatedly in Michael's mind. Michael, like a drowning man clutching a straw, desperately responded to that voice in his mind.
"I am prepared... I am willing to pay the price..."
Chaos, who was controlling Michael's treatment progress, was unaware of everything that had just happened.
At this moment, he was fully focused on the changes in the treatment progress bar.
40%, 45%, 50%!
It's done!
[Michael's Treatment Progress 50%, Reward Draw Conditions Met, Randomly Drawing Michael's Divinity Ability...]
The virtual turntable spun again. This time, Michael was unusually calm. His eyes were dull, looking like a patient with Alzheimer's disease.
"Hmph, hmph, now you know that resistance is futile, don't you? Here, I am the Dominator." Chaos stroked Michael's messy hair and chuckled.
"Alright, let me see what ability I can draw this time?"
The speed of the turntable gradually decreased, and the pointer finally stopped within an area.
[Holy Light Endures: As an Archangel of Heaven, Holy Light will always accompany you. Your Mysterious damage to ghosts and evil spirits is doubled.]
"Another useless ability, but I still have a chance."
Chaos shook his head, intending to continue advancing Michael's treatment progress.
Suddenly, the dazed Michael let out a painful roar.
"Ah!"
The tragic sound shook the Mental Hospital three times. Chaos was startled by the sudden noise.
"What's going on..." Just as Chaos was about to check on Michael's condition, something unexpected happened.
On the turntable, the area representing the Mortal Divine Realm's ability was actually disappearing little by little.
"No!"
Chaos, confused about the situation, roared, "Who? Who stole my ability?"
