NOVEL NEXT Chapter497-Mist’s Shock
Mist's skepticism made the corner of Daniel's mouth twitch.
Was his appearance really that untrustworthy?
And… his intentions this time were completely pure!
Forget it, forget it, no need to overthink it, let's focus on the task at hand!
With a sigh, Daniel effortlessly lifted Mist into the air and headed deeper into Desire Abyss.
Mist felt as though she could hardly breathe, like she was about to suffocate.
The environment around her seemed to rush by at an incredible speed, faster than anything she had imagined!
Wait…
What kind of power did this guy from the future possess? What domain did he belong to? How could his speed be this fast?
Mist was baffled by Daniel's domain.
Even the demigods she had met who had speed-related domains couldn't move anywhere near as fast as Daniel.
Within just a few breaths, their figures appeared in front of a massive teleportation portal.
But unlike the teleportation gates Daniel had encountered before, this one was sealed by a huge lock.
Daniel had never been to this place before, so he could only carry Mist through flight.
But the next time he visited, he could simply use Flashback to reach this spot.
Mist, however, had a look of resignation on her face.
"Hold on, why are you in such a rush?"
"To unlock this seal, you need a sufficient number of keys, and…"
Before she could finish her sentence, Daniel's hand, without her noticing, was now wearing a colorful glove.
He raised his hand and lightly pushed against the massive door. The next moment, the door opened with ease as if it was nothing!
What was going on here?
Weren't they supposed to gather the keys to open the seal?
Could it be that this guy from the future is actually a demigod with a unlocking domain?
But...
That still didn't make sense!
Mist had just seen demigods with similar domains, yet none of them could open this seal!
What was happening?
Was it possible that this guy from the future wasn't a demigod at all?
But that was far too unbelievable!
"Now we can go in," Daniel said casually, stepping forward and entering the portal.
Mist hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and followed him in.
They had finally arrived at the second level of Desire Abyss.
However, as soon as they entered, they felt an enormous threat approaching!
A group of more than a dozen purple-ranked monsters surrounded them instantly.
Faced with these purple-ranked monsters, even Mist's first instinct was to hide her and Daniel's presence.
"Be careful!"
She called out, about to activate her domain. But the next moment, Daniel merely waved his hand.
The dozens of purple-ranked monsters were instantly reduced to ashes!
They didn't even have time to roar before vanishing into nothingness in an instant.
Mist rubbed her eyes in disbelief. However, she hid it well, pretending not to notice, and said with a nonchalant tone:
"I told you, you do have some power."
"Being able to take care of purple-ranked monsters so easily... not bad, not bad. I'll reluctantly acknowledge you, Crossbridge."
Daniel merely smiled and nodded in response.
"Actually, everything I've said so far has been the truth."
"Alright, alright, you're the strongest, is that better?"
Mist said this, but her voice became increasingly softer, as if she was lacking conviction.
By now, Daniel's strength had far exceeded Mist's expectations.
In her mind, Daniel had already become the strongest demigod in the world. She just wasn't ready to admit it yet.
The reason Daniel decided to help was also because he wanted to understand Mist more deeply.
Over the years, he had gathered the least amount of information about Mist. The few remaining pieces weren't even guaranteed to be accurate.
So there was no better way to get real information than to directly interact with Mist.
At this point, Mist likely had some curiosity about him as well.
Perhaps this was a great opportunity to learn more about each other.
Thinking this, Daniel quickened his pace.
Of course, he was also quite curious about the Desire Core. After all, it sounded incredibly powerful.
Though it was obvious that there were traps, such a grand design only proved the immense value of the Desire Core.
Since he was already here, it was a good opportunity to check it out!
Moreover, Daniel had an inkling that the Circle of Destiny might be connected to this place.
As for Mist, she could just be a companion for the journey.
As they continued, Mist obediently followed Daniel's side. Meanwhile, his clones had already begun thoroughly exploring the second level of Desire Abyss.
From the start, Daniel had been clear that his goal was the Circle of Destiny.
However, at this moment, the ground beneath them suddenly began to tremble.
Then, a large number of stones rained down from all sides, rapidly blocking all of Daniel's escape routes!
The scene unfolded so quickly that in an instant, a massive stone prison appeared around Daniel!
But in the face of such a scene, Daniel simply waved his hand, and a massive surge of thunder instantly shattered the surrounding stones into pieces!
Mist, though she had mentally prepared for this, was still astonished by what she saw.
She never imagined that breaking through the stone demon's blockade could be done so easily!
The stone demons, each with purple-rank strength, were known to be a very strong group. Even the smallest of their colonies would have dozens of members.
The rock prison just now could only be formed by the combined effort of at least dozens of stone demons!
But now?
Daniel simply summoned a bolt of lightning, and such a terrifying attack was completely dispelled??
Moreover…
What was the shield on her body?
Why was it a thousand times thicker than her HP?
Mist had never encountered anything so unusual in all her memory!
It was clearly just a bolt of lightning, yet it solved everything so effortlessly.
It seemed this guy from the future was ridiculously powerful!
But... was he really just a demigod?
How could she feel like he was something far beyond that?
Despite being at the same level, why did she feel like a swarm of flies in his presence?
