Chapter 114: Chapter 114

Wiping away the marks left on his neck from being strangled,

Yi Chen carried the kerosene lamp in front of him and the suitcase in his other hand, stepping deeper into the depths.

Following a stair-like secret passage, he came to a spacious underground space Visit NovelHub for more amazing novels and chapters.

“Is this where new instructors are accepted? For such a crucial area to have not a single person...”

Yi Chen approached the highly suspicious stone chair,

and without inspecting it, he smelled a pungent scent coming from beneath the chair,

quickly locating the mechanism at the back of the chair using the Visual Enhancement provided by Little Grape and turned the circular umbilical cord on the Fetal Body Seal, after making a full round.

The stone slab at the seat automatically moved aside, revealing a vertical stone path that led even deeper.

At the center of the ritual,

lay a giant womb-like organ, the ultimate secret of the Church.

It was approximately half the size of a cargo truck, its semi-translucent sac filled with ‘amniotic fluid.’ The Initial Blood from all members of the Church would partly flow into it, nourishing the “Holy Embryo” within.

From time to time, a woman’s face appeared on the surface of the womb-like organ, corresponding to the “Mother of New Birth” worshiped by the Church.

She could constantly produce “umbilical cords,” sharing new life with others.

While sharing, she also planted the roots of slavery in their minds. When the time came to welcome a new life, these people would have to offer up their lives, their deaths heralding the new birth.

It was also this ‘mother’ that caused the forest disease and the formation of grayification, closely approaching Open Source… but for some reason, she couldn’t break through and make direct contact with the ancient source of illness.

her gestation had reached the final stage,

with only the last of the floating Holy Embryos inside the mother, monopolizing all the resources.

The other nine Holy Embryos had already become its nourishment, and even their skulls could be seen floating within… akin to culturing Gu within the womb, which is the previously mentioned “Combination of Cognate Symptoms.”

The sole Holy Embryo was growing at a visibly rapid pace, soon to descend upon this world as the Divine Son.

Interestingly, it was even dressed in a white skin jacket (with clearly visible stitching), adapting to his rapid growth, enlarging along with him, the material of the jacket being the “Gentleman’s Skin” from the missing squad.

The gestation process had reached the final phase; even if the mother’s body were instantly destroyed, it would not stop.

Moreover, it was impossible to rapidly kill the mother, being a Severe Patient.

As the Village Chief had said, it was too late.

Yi Chen’s attention wasn’t entirely on the “Mother and Son”; instead, he looked above the organ.

Naturally hanging from the top of the ritual area, a young woman’s body enveloped in cyst sacs and bound by multiple umbilical cords, only her head and neck exposed.

Her deep brown short hair brushed past her ears,

her high-bridged nose and thin, moist, slightly red lips,

a Red Lotus Mark imprinted at the bottom of her left eye,

eyes tightly closed, apparently in a comatose state,

her Physical quality had been recognized by the Mother of New Birth, deemed the “Final Sacrifice”—the first delicacy for the Divine Son upon his birth.

a woman’s face emerged on the surface of the womb-like organ; with eyes shedding bloody tears, she gazed at the approaching young man and spoke with a seductive voice,

“My child is about to be born, do you wish to join us?”

As soon as she spoke,

a Spiritual Shock instantly impacted Yi Chen’s brain, as if he were being choked by an umbilical cord around the neck, the sensation of suffocation maxed out in an instant, and his brain also began to suffer from a lack of oxygen.

The very next second! The Emblem engraved at the back of his head began to heat up, steaming vapor emanating from the surface of his brain, forcefully ‘evaporating’ the spiritual invasion within his mind.

“Little Grape! Attack her?”

“Are you sure you want to use Spiritual Shock now? Against such a powerful Severe Patient, it will be effective at most once during combat… Can’t you catch her off guard at a critical moment, like you did with Mr. Li?”

Yi Chen’s eyes widened, and along with the Little Grape on his shoulder, they both stared intently at their opponent, returning the spiritual gesture.

The mother clearly didn’t expect that the young man would also possess spiritual abilities, her gaze dulled in an instant, her consciousness muddled.

And in that brief moment of the mother’s astonishment,

Yi Chen’s figure swiftly crossed over her from above, accompanied by a flash of silver light!

He cut through the inflated sacs and the binding umbilical cords,
