After a few tries, Hu He noticed that the living thing on the ground had no reaction whatsoever.
Hu He became exasperated as he had not expected the shop to sell counterfeit and shoddy products. Especially since it had included a developer in its description. This was a deception gone too far. How could they produce counterfeits, this really is so unprofessional.
Sensing Hu He’s thoughts, Bei Li promptly gazed at him, making Hu He shiver unconsciously.
Just as Hu He was sure that there was no way for them to communicate, a stutter suddenly resounded through his mind.
“Wh-who are y-you… wh-where are y-you? L-let m-me out! I-I-I’ll do a-anything you a-ask!”
The reply was sudden and out of nowhere, so it left Hu He momentarily stunned and strangely excited.
“Hey younger brother, can you tell me who you are?”
“I’m…”
As Hu He waited for the rest of his reply, the fellow suddenly stopped talking.
“Who on earth are you!?” Hu He asked agitatedly.
“I… I c-can’t remember anymore!”
His reply sent Hu He into a daze.
“Err-I-I… th-think I c-could be th-the Vengeful G-Ghost King,” the voice said shakily.
This made Hu He even more speechless.
However, the fact that this fellow still had a breath of life in him did not escape Hu He’s notice. An extremely daring idea popped up in his mind.
At that moment, Fenshui the Ghost King was still out there. In his current state, he definitely lacked the strength to make an escape on his own. However, if he had this Ghost King with him, he might stand a chance.
The thought occurred to Hu He, that an extra person meant extra strength, so he might as well find more people to help him.
However, with his present finances, he did not have enough soul coins to use, so he would need funds from the outside.
Hu He then opened his Friends List and scrolled to the biggest sponsor he had right now – Jason.
After opening the chat, Hu He explained the current situation that he was in and expressed his desire for some monetary support in the form of soul coins.
Hu He’s contributions to the development of the European server were undoubtedly tremendous. Thus, without hesitating, Jason transferred another 20,000 soul coins to him.
Hu He was touched. Finally, he felt like a decent person as he had someone who valued him greatly now.
With an extra 20,000 soul coins, Hu He was invigorated with a renewed sense of confidence.
After taking the Soul Interaction Rope with him, he began to look for the Sealing Wall inside this room and purchased another Anti-Seal Canceler to break it down.
After spending three hours, Hu He had managed to break the seal around ten rooms. Apart from two empty ones, he had come across a total of 13 beings with unknown strength and capabilities.
As he could not see clearly in there, there was no way for him to use his analyzing ability. Moreover, their abilities were sealed and could not be used, so Hu He was unable to determine their true strength.
Nonetheless, Hu He remained in high spirits, as now the overall strength of his party had increased.
However, there was still one matter that troubled Hu He.
None of them could remember their own names – four claimed to be the Vengeful Ghost King while three earnestly acknowledged their identity as the Vacuum Ghost General. There was even one that said his name was Cangxu and claimed to be at the rank of His Excellency.
This gave Hu He a strong notion that he had saved a bunch of fools.
Be that as it may, since he wanted to escape, he still needed to depend on the strength of these people.
After breaking through a few more seal walls, Hu He brought them all to his original room. One by one, he let them hold onto the Soul Interaction Rope before beginning to communicate.
The conversation that followed after was extremely emotionally-taxing for Hu He as each one of them stuttered to no end and seemed to be half-dead.
As a result of the protection of dark strength here, even though they didn’t die per se, they were teetering on the edge of death. They were lost in the eternal ebb and flow of time, hence their knowledge and awareness of the outside world had become very vague.
Regardless of how much of a hassle the interactions were, they still needed to take place. Hu He began to explain to them the reason why he had dug them out. At the same time, he also told them to hold on a bit longer as they would be able to leave here promptly.
Hu He did not forget to share a very key piece of information with them – he hoped that once they escaped, they could give Fenshui the Ghost King a good beating.
After all, Hu He still had not let go of his vengeance from being slapped by him.
After explaining the intricacies of it all numerous times and feeling 20 of them nod in agreement, Hu He heaved a sigh of relief.
He then laid on the floor and opened the forum, scrolling through spam posts as well as watching livestreams.
Ah, the wifi we players have is just wonderful. If it weren’t for this heavy burden on my shoulders, I would be able to live in this so-called Infinite Darkness for a year.
Presently, Hu He was having a whale of a time, completely forgetting his previous state of despair.
Seconds and minutes slowly passed by.
The other beings he found were able to regain some consciousness after their communication. They were no longer as wooden as before and had also begun to remember some things.
This pleased Hu He greatly. As he was watching the livestreams, he would casually insert a response into the conversation, acting like the big brother of the group.
…
In the outside world, Fenshui the Ghost King was quite agitated.
These ten hours of boring, uneventful waiting had chipped away at his patience.
However, since he promised 10,000 years, it had to be so. He needed Hu He to realize what true terror was and what being helpless felt like.
Once he felt that the time had come, Fenshui opened the seal of the Infinite Darkness with bated breath, before stretching his hand down to get Hu He.
However, he was dumbfounded with what followed after.
Numerous silhouettes began to emerge from below.
There were more than 20 silhouettes, including Hu He.
Their faces were expressionless. When they came into contact with sunlight, they instinctively shielded their eyes, as though deeply unused to it.
All around, a sudden soul energy thunderstorm began to brew. Large amounts of soul energy began to accumulate and flow into these living things that had just escaped the darkness.
After glancing at Hu He who was smiling proudly at him and the numerous figures standing around him, Fenshui’s heart skipped a beat.
To his utter horror, Fenshui realized that he recognized most of these people.
He had put some of them there under Cangxu’s orders long ago.
He had no idea how Hu He was able to accomplish this. All forms of energy were useless in the Infinite Darkness. Besides, he was sure that Hu He did not hide any tools with him. Nevertheless, now he knew one thing. This was a complete disaster, and something apocalyptic was about to happen.
These beings that were thrown into the Infinite Darkness had immense power and would not bow down to anyone.
Now that they had all been released, the entire Land of Cangxu would probably be thrown into pandemonium.
With the soul energy continuously flowing into their bodies, the numb souls began to heal and regain their memories.
It would be hard for them to return to their optimal form in this short time, but they could already make out what had happened to themselves.
“Brothers! Let’s beat him up!” Hu He loftily pointed at Fenshui and shouted.
Hearing this, Fenshui the Ghost King immediately flapped his wings, trying to escape.
With a glimpse, he had noticed there were at least eight other Ghost Kings. Even though they hadn’t fully recuperated yet, if a real fight were to break out, he would not be able to hold out for long.
However, as soon as he swooped up into the sky, numerous shadows streaked toward him and pressed him back onto the ground.
In fact, something had escaped Hu He’s knowledge.
In the Infinite Darkness, the appearance of Hu He had left an indelible mark on all of their hearts.
Perhaps for Hu He, it had merely been a few hours, but for them, they had spent eons in the harrowing darkness. Moreover, in that short period of time, Hu He had fulfilled the role as their big brother. He brought them light and hope, as well as preventing them from falling into the abyss of eternal oblivion.
After regaining their consciousness, these maliciously evil beings were unconsciously filled with respect and adoration for Hu He.
After a few tries, Hu He noticed that the living thing on the ground had no reaction whatsoever.
Hu He became exasperated as he had not expected the shop to sell counterfeit and shoddy products. Especially since it had included a developer in its description. This was a deception gone too far. How could they produce counterfeits, this really is so unprofessional.
