This immature junior, I will take away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost simultaneously with this voice, after throwing away the urn, the giant empty hand of the shadow phantom directly grabbed toward the black vat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant hand’s movement looked casual, as if not very fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in less than 0.01 seconds, the black vat containing the demon youth was already inside the shadow phantom’s giant hand!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye was startled, frowning slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could speak, the giant shadow phantom also threw Wu Wang over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, on the giant hand that was free after throwing Wu Wang, a dirty clay doll appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heavy emotionless voice came again from the shadow phantom:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This [Prometheus Doll] is to be considered a compensation gift.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, the clay doll was also thrown toward Jiang Ye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Jiang Ye did not catch it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clay doll was thrown to the ground but remained perfectly intact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More precisely, the dirt covering its body didn’t fall off even a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye had a premonition that the shadow phantom was going to take the demon youth away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he was speaking, he quietly merged some clones that enhanced his spirit attribute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, just as he felt his spirit attribute should be sufficient and was about to take action...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suddenly discovered—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Witch Gui soul entity could not invade that giant shadow phantom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even more astonishing was—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right after he failed to invade the shadow phantom, the shadow phantom sent a heavy voice to him:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t you know? Soul entities can only parasitize on physical bodies.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The implication was...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This shadow phantom was not a physical body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, the mastermind behind this shadow phantom either had no physical body or hadn’t personally come here!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, who exactly was it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a power and method had to be a Permission Player, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But why would such an existence insist on saving the demon youth? What was the purpose of stealing Witch Gui’s cremains?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, with his strength, he shouldn’t have needed any “compensation,” right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye’s mind filled with various thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom left one sentence: “We will meet again at the Nine-Day Major Reshuffle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the shadow phantom took the black vat containing the demon youth and instantly vanished without a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye couldn’t even tell from where it disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This method seemed different from the Nomadic Merchant’s spatial rift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye guessed this might not be a spatial ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom was not a physical body but could touch physical objects...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even carry physical objects and traverse space directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We will meet again at the Nine-Day Major Reshuffle...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant that the shadow phantom, like Eternal Witch Gui, belonged to a special permission identity?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye’s thoughts fluttered wildly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon, his gaze landed on that clay doll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True Sight Eye scanned it, directly retrieving information:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Prometheus Doll]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Effect: Provides a vessel for soul entities to parasitize, and grants the unique SSS-rank talent “Fire Theft.”]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Fire Theft (SSS): You can steal others’ abilities (including but not limited to: ultimate skills, talents, abilities, and Glyph Pattern Abilities).]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[PS: If the same ability is stolen for more than 2 hours within 24 hours, the doll may mutate; over 5 hours, it may devour its owner; over 10 hours, it may generate an autonomous soul entity.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh my!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, Jiang Ye was quite annoyed that the shadow phantom took the demon youth away directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after seeing this “compensation,” he was stunned!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An SSS-rank talent!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And a unique special one at that!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The key was this talent was really awesome!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stealing others’ abilities!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the literal meaning, “stealing” was much stronger than “copying”!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it was just copying, the one who copied would get the ability without affecting the original owner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But “stealing” meant forcibly taking others’ abilities away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stolen person would lose that ability!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the stolen time couldn’t exceed 2 hours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, it had to be returned within 2 hours...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even so, this ability was still ridiculously overpowered!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The key point was, it was an SSS-rank ability!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, even SSS-rank abilities could be stolen!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, Chen Cang’s SSS-rank [Divine Assistance], what would happen if stolen?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or Lu Fang’s [Rune Mastery], could he try stealing that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or Lin Ling’s ability, could he try experiencing it too?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, an SSS-rank talent was awesome but Jiang Ye was more concerned about...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This thing was, after all, just an item.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it was a free gift from someone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having suffered the traps from Lin Ling’s [Life Stone], the Mask Master’s [Mimic Mask], the Card Grandmaster’s [Time-Limited Instant Kill], and the defective [Clone Replica Mirror]...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye had grown wary of various items.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how overpowered this [Prometheus Doll] was, if he wanted to use it, he had to weigh it carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if the shadow phantom destroyed his cremains on purpose and used this doll to harm his soul entity by letting the doll’s autonomous soul devour his?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although according to Witch Gui’s trait, if the cremains don’t perish, Witch Gui won’t die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But previously, the Witch Gui soul entity had been directly replaced by Jiang Ye’s soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, this replacement was not true death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if the autonomous soul generated by this doll could also replace Jiang Ye’s soul entity?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short, this doll item was overpowered, but the risk of use was too high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, as Jiang Ye picked up the dirty clay doll, he once again reviewed the information about “Prometheus” in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, Lin Ling had mentioned “Olympus” in a secret code given to Jiang Ye’s light clone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Prometheus was somewhat related to Olympus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prometheus was not one of the twelve main gods of Olympus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, during the battle between Zeus and the Titans, he was a Titan god who sided with the Olympian gods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, he was favored by Zeus and stayed on Mount Olympus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding Prometheus, two well-known deeds were creating humans and stealing fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to Greek mythology, the prophet god Prometheus and the goddess of wisdom Athena jointly created humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prometheus molded human “bodies” out of clay;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Athena breathed life and soul into the clay figures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Athena bestowed wisdom upon humans, while Prometheus brought the fire to the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the doll’s [Fire Theft] talent perfectly matched the myth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Jiang Ye cared more about was...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The myth’s setting that Prometheus created human “bodies,” and Athena injected the “soul.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This coincided with his previous thoughts about “containers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the “body” in mythology corresponded to what he understood as the “container” in Doomsday Apartment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then what kind of existence would the “Prometheus” of the entire Doomsday Apartment be?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this in mind, Jiang Ye suddenly had many thoughts about this Prometheus who was not an Olympian main god.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, he had read Greek mythology before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it had been a long time ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, those mythological names were not easy for him to recognize when he was young.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So most of his memories about Greek myths were vague and confused, with many events and characters mismatched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for some reason, right now, he smoothly recalled more information about Prometheus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, he remembered that when Prometheus created humans, he molded the clay figure based on his own body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, after stealing fire, the angry Zeus severely punished Prometheus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was bound with unbreakable iron chains on a steep cliff of Mount Caucasus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Special nails were hammered into his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eagles were arranged to peck at his liver every day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the day, the liver was eaten; at night, it would regrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, day after day, he endured the torment of the eagle pecking at his liver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking frankly, Jiang Ye might have been a bit twisted as a child; he even thought this punishment was not very cruel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were him, he would definitely come up with more brutal ideas...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ahem, of course, as a human, he naturally stood on Prometheus’s side, the creator of humans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So according to the myth, there seemed to be someone, whose name Jiang Ye couldn’t recall, who found Prometheus during the search for golden apples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This person shot the eagle, destroyed the chains, and rescued Prometheus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the human perspective, Prometheus was a very important mythological figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he and Athena together created humans, basically the Greek equivalent of Nüwa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if some settings in Doomsday Apartment corresponded specifically with Greek mythology...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the character corresponding to Prometheus in the apartment should also be quite important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Doomsday Apartment, there was the Moon Phase Clock bound by iron chains;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Reincarnation Graveyard, there was the Cross-shaped Tombstone bound by iron chains;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the underground graveyard’s tombstone area, there was a mysterious imprisoned existence;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, there was a secret hidden deep in the Abyss Restricted Zone...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among these, could there be an imprisoned existence corresponding to Prometheus?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there was,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye leaned toward excluding the “Moon Phase Clock” and “Abyss Restricted Zone” first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, what the Moon Phase Clock imprisoned seemed to be time, which might not be related to living beings;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secret in the Abyss Restricted Zone was probably related to the early days of Doomsday Apartment, the Light Emperor, and the Dark Emperor;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Left were the Cross-shaped Tombstone in the 4444 Apartment Reincarnation Graveyard and the tombstone area in the underground graveyard...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, Jiang Ye wasn’t sure if the special existence in the tombstone area was related to the Cross-shaped Tombstone in the Reincarnation Graveyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after thinking deeply about these,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze returned to the [Prometheus Doll], and he suddenly had a bold idea...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I mean, if this doll really gave birth to an autonomous soul entity, so what?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye even looked forward a bit to whether the autonomous soul generated by the doll could bring him more information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if conditions allowed, he of course hoped to thoroughly deal with that shadow phantom first before trying to let the doll generate an autonomous soul entity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, what if the generated autonomous soul was a trap set for him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, since he didn’t even know who the shadow phantom really was, it was probably hard to resolve it in the short term.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye sighed lightly and put away the dirty-looking clay doll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he casually glanced at Wu Wang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Wu Wang’s entire body was stiff, and he looked like he was about to collapse as if the sky was falling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ye snorted and waved his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A black vat suddenly appeared on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He poured some poison into the black vat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he took out an ordinary doll and placed it in an ornate chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a flicker of thought, the Witch Gui soul entity transferred from Yu Mo onto the ordinary doll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a thought, the ordinary doll transformed into the demon youth’s previous appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stuffed Yu Mo back into the black vat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, in the demon youth’s form, he sat back in the ornate chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With three “Duang Duang Duang” kicks on the black vat, he woke Yu Mo up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Mo had been unconscious before, but now he slowly opened his eyes, somewhat confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first thing he saw was Wu Wang standing next to the black vat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was unsure whether this Wu Wang was the real one or the one possessed by Witch Gui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he could confirm was that the person in the ornate chair was his cousin Tao Sheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where had this drama reached?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how far it had gone, whether Witch Gui was present or not, he cautiously showed a terrified and fearful expression toward the demon youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, in his heart, he frantically called out to Witch Gui: “Big boss! Boss! Help me!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disguised as the demon youth, Jiang Ye naturally heard his plea for help directed at the heart demon’s lair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he gave no response, only meaningfully glanced at Wu Wang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Wang, able to rise to the leadership of the Hundred Ghosts Alliance, naturally had some skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reacted almost instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One second he was terrified as if the sky was falling; the next second he switched to smooth acting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He kicked the black vat fiercely and shouted angrily:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Useless fool! I’m right here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Yu Mo understood the situation—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Witch Gui big shot was possessing Wu Wang;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And his cousin’s relaxed and arrogant posture must mean he had a hold on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart relaxed, but his face still showed panic as he shouted toward Wu Wang: “Big boss! Help! This guy searched my soul; I’m worried he...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he finished, Wu Wang, with a complicated expression and expressionless face, interrupted: “You don’t have to worry about that...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My cremains have already been stolen by him. Look at the broken cremains urn on the ground...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...What?!” Yu Mo was even more terrified, his face turning pale. “H-How could this happen?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Jiang Ye crossed his legs and snorted: “How could it not happen? You’ve seen my strength.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he snorted again at Wu Wang: “Now, honorable Witch Gui, what do you think?”\u003C\u002Fp>",2597,"2026-06-03T07:17:36.055Z","2026-06-03T07:17:41.424Z",1,"novelbin.me","58bc382567b6819cf3301873fa4677c0f2e9f92f59ee0ddd1d548ffe6768af85","surviving-the-doomsday-apartment-with-infinite-c-chapter-308","surviving-the-doomsday-apartment-with-infinite-c-chapter-306",575,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsurviving-the-doomsday-apartment-with-infinite-c-cover.jpg"]
