Hero? Are You Worthy?-Chapter 380 - 247: Asina Nears Death (4)

Faced with such immense power, Qin Chu still managed to maintain such confidence, a spirit that stunned Helois and Iyeta, and they did not doubt Qin Chu’s capability to achieve it.

After all, Qin Chu’s increase in Strength happened too quickly.

They were also shocked by the power of the Dark Witch Shaye, after all, Dark Witch Shaye had been enthusiastically welcomed by the Demon King, being on the same level as him.

In the entire Sky Dome Continent, there were only two beings who exceeded Level 100, and both were among the demons. Fortunately, the Demon King was focused on locking himself in his room, and Shaye was engrossed in her research.

Otherwise, if these two truly let loose, humanity would probably have been doomed long ago.

"However, what exactly is Princess Shaye researching?" Helois suddenly asked.

Iyeta shook her head, "It’s said to involve demon modification. The Demon King personally selected a group of strong and robust demons for Princess Shaye to use as test subjects. After leaving Princess Shaye’s lab, each of these demons gained tremendous strength, becoming like madmen, fierce and fearless."

Although Qin Chu had been around Shaye for so long, he had a limited understanding of what she had been doing before, he hadn’t delved into it.

Now that Helois and Iyeta mentioned it, Qin Chu also became interested and asked Shaye in his mind.

Shaye did not hide anything, "It’s similar to what Iyeta mentioned, conducting experiments on modifying demons with magic potions."

"Nage, that guy, knows I’m proficient in potion research."

"For a witch who concocts magic potions, high-quality materials are precious and very attractive. Nage said he has a batch of extremely rare materials, and the Demon Territory is incredibly vast, mostly deep mountains and forests, which are also the richest in various herbs. As long as I have a need, he would arrange for demons to help me search."

"Of course, the condition for providing me the materials is that I share my research results with him."

"For me, where I conduct research doesn’t matter; I just want precious potion materials to improve my potion-making skills. Since someone is willing to provide them, why not agree? So I agreed very readily," Shaye answered lightly.

Shaye belonged to a different type from the other witches.

Her Strength was very strong, but her sense of good and evil was not.

She might even be said to completely lack it; she simply did things according to her preferences, whimsically, unconcerned about the consequences of these actions.

"What materials did he provide you with then?" Qin Chu grew more curious.

To attract a witch as powerful as Shaye, those materials must be exceptionally unusual.

"Hmm, it was a bottle of red, strange liquid."

Shaye leaned on Qin Chu’s shoulders, tilting her head as she thought, her lips nearly touching Qin Chu’s ear, "I judge, it is the blood of some creature."

"I dare say my knowledge is very vast, but I couldn’t identify what creature’s blood it was, and moreover, that bottled liquid was highly diluted, not in its original form. Yet, even so, the blood still filled with a very dense, rich power, something I have never experienced before."

"I asked Nage what creature’s blood it was, but that old guy didn’t tell me. He only said he would reveal the origin of the blood after the research yielded results."

"That diluted bottle of blood is enough for my research for several years, needing only a single drop each time, and even then, it must be further diluted, otherwise, the modified demons simply couldn’t withstand it."

Qin Chu grew increasingly curious, what was Shaye’s Strength?

Highly diluted blood, yet Shaye could still say it was filled with a very dense, rich power, even remarking that she had never experienced anything like it?

Could it possibly be divine blood?

A thought suddenly popped into Qin Chu’s mind.

That couldn’t be.

Gods had fallen thousands of years ago, where would one find divine blood, and it couldn’t have been preserved for such a long time, right? It would have expired and degraded by now.

Aside from encountering those weird beings in the Void, Qin Chu hadn’t truly come into contact with Gods, nor did he understand much about their existence.

"He asked you to modify demons, didn’t he have any specific requirements?" Qin Chu asked.

"Of course, Demon King Nage required the individuals I modified to be as agile as the wind, as intelligent as humans, immensely strong, and indestructible. It feels like that guy just wants to create a batch of battle machines."

"Agile as the wind, immensely strong, indestructible are all easy, the demons I’ve modified can basically meet these standards, the only tricky part is being as intelligent as humans."

Shaye yawned lazily, her slender finger flipping her silver hair behind her ear, "As intelligent as humans... what’s the difference between that and just having demons awaken their spiritual wisdom?"

Her tone became slightly dissatisfied, "The demons Nage sent are mostly those with developed limbs but simple minds, making those things awaken spiritual wisdom, I might as well try to make cockroaches awaken slightly easier."

"Their temperaments are already volatile, and with the invasion of the magic potion, they all become somewhat crazy."

"But it is undeniable, their combat abilities all received a tremendous enhancement."

"Their speed is as fast as lightning, their claws can tear through steel, and human strongbows and crossbows can’t pierce their skin..."
