Chapter 391: Legendary Status of the Gods (15) 【Emerging from the Crowd】

Boom! The arrow instantly pierced Yun Mu's chest. The gap in strength between the two sides was a bit too large; she had no way to dodge it at all.

But strangely, the arrow dissipated quickly after hitting her, and she did not feel any pain, as if what had just happened were merely a hallucination.

On the contrary, after firing that arrow, the Wuming ghost's body became illusory, as if a gust of wind could blow it away.

What was going on? Facing the situation at hand, Yun Mu was a bit confused. Seeing that the Wuming ghost was no longer moving, she cautiously approached and patted the other party on the shoulder with her hand.

Just like the previous few times, when she touched the Wuming ghost's body, the Black Fog shrouding the other party surged again, drilling into her body.

【You have received the memories of the {Unknown Ghost lv170 (Epic)}.】 Just like last time, she did not receive any memories.

But the Wuming ghost's level had reached 170, just one level away from Myth.

What should she do next? Yun Mu blinked in a daze, her gaze shifting to the... corpse lying not far away?

It was quite a strange feeling to have three of herself present at the same time.

Shaking her head, Yun Mu looked up at the surrounding buildings.

They were exactly the same as the Frostfall City in her memory, only she didn't understand why it was here.

If this was also a memory experienced by the God of Hunting and Death, could it be that the soul of her predecessor was hunted by it?

That was not entirely impossible. "It is over."

An abrupt sigh suddenly sounded in Yun Mu's ear. Before she could react, the surrounding scene became incomparably dim.

The Sheep Spirit and the Wolf appeared before her at some point.

And that sigh just now had clearly come from the Sheep Spirit.

"Over? What is over?" Yun Mu opened her mouth subconsciously and discovered that she could actually speak.

"It means you can go back soon, idiot." A mocking smile appeared on the Wolf's face, as if it were truly laughing at her stupidity.

"Go back?" A look of confusion appeared on Yun Mu's face.

Of course she knew that going back meant returning to the real world, but was it just going to end like this, with a whimper? Everything that had just happened, everything she had seen, was it just going to end so inexplicably? If this were a novel, what had just happened would be like something written by an author who had drunk too much, providing not a shred of power to the so-called plot progression.

There were clearly still many suspicious points. Yun Mu did not believe, and was not willing to let it end here!

"There is no need to continue; it is already over." Seeming to see through her thoughts, the Sheep Spirit spoke.

"I don't understand." Yun Mu shook her head in confusion; she hoped these two gods before her could explain it to her.

Especially that sigh when the Sheep Spirit appeared just now—it made her very concerned.

Why did the Sheep Spirit sigh, and what was it sighing about? And why, in the end, was the scene in Frostfall City, and why did it happen to be when she had just transmigrated over? "Name." The Wolf suddenly spoke at this moment.

"Name?" Yun Mu was slightly stunned, then quickly reacted.

Yes, that was it, exactly—a name!

Compared to other gods, the God of Hunting and Death did not have a name that belonged solely to It.

The so-called Sheep Spirit and Wolf were merely titles taken based on their appearances.

Was this the reason why the other party was not a true god? "A nameless ghost has neither a past nor any memories; a soul that cannot recognize its own self is destined to have no connection with the gods." After the Wolf finished speaking, the Sheep Spirit added.

"The Wolf is different... It shared its memories with Me, which is why I did not disappear."

"Isn't the Wolf a ghost?" Hearing this, Yun Mu was a bit surprised. She had thought the Sheep Spirit and the Wolf were one entity, but now it seemed that was not the case.

"I do not know." The Sheep Spirit shook its head: "The Wolf suddenly appeared beside Me... perhaps I simply forgot."

"Letting a true god fall into eternal sleep might have allowed Me to find a name, but the Curse that came with it interfered with the ascension... The Wolf and I hid inside your body, and thus, we dragged you into it as well."

"It is like the reverse side of a mirror; another nameless ghost received your help, but was ultimately affected by the Curse and fell short at the final hurdle."

"She no longer has any memories." The Sheep Spirit was naturally referring to the Young Girl who looked like Yun Mu.

"I see..."

Yun Mu roughly understood.

"Then..." Yun Mu pondered for a moment: "Can my memories be shared with that young girl?"

"Just like the Wolf and you."

"... It is possible." After a brief silence, the Sheep Spirit nodded in response: "But the result of doing so will only be the same as the Wolf; it will not change the current situation at all."

"It won't have any effect on me, right?" After thinking about it, Yun Mu pressed.

"No." The Sheep Spirit shook its head without hesitation.

To be honest, those Curses that would make It feel a chill all over just by glancing at them had no reaction at all after touching Yun Mu. It was just sharing memories; the Wolf was fine, so what could happen to Yun Mu?

"As long as there is no effect, that's fine."

Yun Mu's gaze pierced through the Darkness, looking at the young girl whose figure was nearly dissipating.

The impact of receiving the other party's memories was actually still there. Although it couldn't be counted as a big problem, at the very least, she could not ignore the existence of that young girl in the short term.

If she just let her dissipate like this, she would feel a guilty conscience.

Even if this was not the real world, even if doing this wouldn't change anything, she just wanted to—what was the problem with that! "Since you've turned into my appearance, then don't just disappear so casually."

Yun Mu took the initiative to step forward, reached out to grab the young girl's shoulders, and then pressed her forehead against the other party's.

Although the Sheep Spirit and the Wolf hadn't told her the method to share memories, her intuition told her that doing this would work! A ghost without a self? Then she would bestow a self upon her! It just so happened that the Sheep Spirit and the Wolf were very close to a certain image in her memory.

"Wake up, God of Hunting and Death—Kindred!"

Influenced by the memories in her mind, Yun Mu was a bit carried away at this moment; she didn't care if it would work or not, she would just shout it first. Hum! The dark space suddenly trembled, and at the same time, the {Apostle of Joy's Mask} that Yun Mu carried with her emitted a dazzling red light.

"Hahahahaha!"

A burst of eerie, loud laughter erupted from within the Mask.

The next second, the Apostle of Joy's Mask actually split into two, transforming into one black and one white mask that looked as if they had been carved from skulls! By the time Yun Mu reacted, the masks had already turned into two beams of aurora and flown toward the firmament, disappearing without a trace.

"This is..." The Sheep Spirit looked up in surprise; this space constructed by the Curse was actually shattered by those two black and white beams of aurora.

In an instant, the view before Yun Mu's eyes became fragmented and blurred. When she was able to see again, she discovered that she had already returned to the real world.

The body of Robert, the God of Beastkin, dissipated into Ether, and the Curse erosion that had spread across the entire Federation was actually erased by the concept of 'Death' along with the body of the God of Beastkin.

At the same time, the auras of the Sheep Spirit and the Wolf climbed continuously; within the range of Yun Mu's Perception, all the Ether began to boil violently!

A deity named "Death" was officially recorded within the Ether!

In a daze, Yun Mu became aware of this information.

【You have witnessed the birth of the {God of Hunting and Death, Kindred lv175 (Myth)}.】 【Your Destiny Points {Death} +5, Path {Death} unlocked.】 {Death lv1: Immune to the negative effects of 【Near Death】 and 【Heavy】 injury; additionally, when a character in the party enters the 【Near Death】 state, Critical Hit +10%, damage dealt +5%! }

{Exempt from one death. }

{Note: Damage dealt and damage modification are separate categories of amplification effects. }

【You have obtained the trait {Death Resistance}!】 {Death Resistance: Your Death Resistance +15%, and you are immune to the effects of 【Instant Death】. }

{Instant Death: A special effect that causes death directly, ignoring certain factors. }

【You have obtained 10 points of Legend·Gods.】 【You have obtained 30 points of Legend·World.】 【Legend: Gods (15) {Emerging}】 【Almost all deities have heard of your deeds, whether it was that fleeting moment when you were watched by Godwin, King of the Sun, the brand-new Path you created, or the many Blessings bestowed upon you by various deities.】 【Now, you have resolved the bomb hidden beneath the Federation that had been a headache for the gods for so long, and you have allowed the deity named Hunting and Death to learn its true name.】 【Even those fellows who intend to subvert the world have to admit that you are special.】 【But that is all; after all, your strength is still far from the level worthy of the gods' attention, isn't it?】 【Legend: World (30) {Rising Fame}】 【You are the hero who resolved the Scarlet Rebellion, the Brave who eliminated the Beast God, the Champion of the Old Days Front, and a friend of the Frost Princess.】 【Beyond that, you also possess multiple titles such as Herald of Civilization, Favorite of the Gods, Defeater of Victory, and Brave.】 【Even the Dwarves living in the mountains, the Elves hiding in the forests, and even the dragons that are nowhere to be seen have heard of your name.】 【Perhaps as time passes, you too can become the protagonist who leads this era?】 A series of message prompts refreshed from the Game Panel. After Yun Mu finally finished reading these messages, before she could even digest them, the ascension of the God of Hunting and Death in the real world had already concluded.

The silver-haired Sheep Spirit landed lightly, took off the black Mask worn on her face, and revealed a visage nearly identical to Yun Mu's.

"I didn't expect it to actually succeed." She looked extremely incredulous.

The Wuming phantom that shared Yun Mu's appearance had ultimately succeeded in influencing the God of Hunting and Death in the real world. After obtaining a name, the Sheep Spirit's face became indistinguishable from Yun Mu's.

However, she did not have Cat Ears, nor was her hair black, and her body still retained most of its original form.

Only the upper body was like a human's.

Yes, it's a furry! Ahem.

Yun Mu coughed twice, banishing the abnormal thoughts from her mind.

"This should be fine now, right?" She said with a serious expression: "The Beast God, and that Bishop of the Beast God Cult, besides those, there is also the Curse..."

"They have all been purged." The God of Decay and Necromancy, Fen Yege, walked over at this moment, clapping his hands and saying with a smile.

His gaze lingered on Kindred for a moment, a trace of imperceptible surprise flashing in his eyes.

It seemed that even he had not expected the God of Hunting and Death to truly be able to grasp a true name.

Pausing briefly, Fen Yege continued: "The Beast God is dead, and the Curse has been erased along with him. Since the Curse has receded, the Purge Protocol no longer has a reason to continue execution."

"As for what to do specifically... that is a matter for the Federation."

"Ahhh, I'm exhausted." The God of Wine and Victory, Avala, yawned with some fatigue.

"Next time we meet, remember to treat me to a drink." He said toward Yun Mu and Fen Yege.

"Hehe, no problem." Fen Yege agreed with a chuckle.

Yun Mu, however, appeared somewhat conflicted: "Treating you to a drink is no problem, but..."

She wasn't Fen Yege; she didn't have any rare vintage wines. If she were to treat him, the most she could do was go to some tavern or bar.

"Hahaha, it's fine." Avala saw through her thoughts and laughed loudly: "As long as it isn't watered down, even ordinary ale can be enjoyed!"

"My, Avala's, mouth isn't that picky."

After finishing his words, he put away the smile on his face and looked at Fen Yege: "Since the matter is resolved, I should probably be leaving too."

"Leaving already?" Fen Yege was somewhat surprised: "Not coming to the victory banquet for a drink?"

"Victory banquet?" Avala's eyes lit up upon hearing this term, but he soon thought of something and waved his hand with some regret: "Let's save it for next time. Liedisi contacted me a few days ago; it seems there is some trouble over at the Dwarves'."

"Liedisi came to find you?" Fen Yege frowned upon hearing this, thinking of some bad things: "Did that 'Gate' have a problem?"

Avala glanced at Yun Mu, and seeing that Fen Yege didn't mind, he nodded.

"It was about half a month ago. The gatekeeper of Baluo Yaosai heard a strange sound coming from behind the 'Gate'."

"After inspection, this gatekeeper's cognition was not distorted, nor did he suffer from Hallucination, so the sound behind the 'Gate' should be real."

"Recently, this sound seems to have an intensifying trend. It is said that one can already hear sounds as if someone is hitting the Gate with a Stone."

"..." Fen Yege was silent for a brief moment, then took a deep breath: "The 'Gate', truly one wave after another."

"What do you intend to do?" He looked at Avala and asked.

"Of course, I'm going over to take a look." Avala appeared somewhat indifferent: "The Dwarves' ale tastes pretty good too."

"Is that so." Fen Yege smiled: "It's a pity I still have research to do, and having just finished the business here, I don't want to get into any more trouble."

Saying this, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Yun Mu with a half-smile.

"W-what?" Yun Mu looked at Fen Yege with some vigilance.

This guy wouldn't be planning to make her go solve that 'Gate' thing again, would he? She had been trying so hard just now to suppress her curiosity and not ask! (End of chapter)
