Chapter 448: The Disaster of God

As soon as these words fell, the gods present immediately fell into silence.

Seize the existing creation authority?

What a bold and dangerous move!

Even if they have doubts about the strength of Li Yang and others, it is too risky to challenge the supreme power that controls the rules of the entire universe.

After a while, [Queen God] Hera spoke to break the silence:

"Athena, what you say is really bold. How could we dare to cross such a limit?"

"How will you know if you don't try?" Athena looked indifferent, unmoved at all, "As long as you have the chance to succeed, why not be afraid to take a chance? Besides, doesn't His Majesty Zeus have similar forgeries in hand?"

Zeus frowned upon hearing this, as if weighing the pros and cons.

The other gods looked at each other with some fear in their hearts.

Finally, Zeus sighed heavily:

"Well, I have to admit that our situation is indeed desperate. Since we can't even take back the Mother Box, we might as well make a desperate move and try to kill it with one strike."

"Then send envoys first to secretly spy on the movements of Li Yang and others, looking for opportunities to cause chaos. If everything is ready, we will take action ourselves!"

The gods retreated, shouting that the divine realm would last forever.

...

While the gods were discussing countermeasures, Onilii and Artemis finally returned to the Blue Star Hunting Mansion and told Li Yang and others about their findings.

"Although it is already expected... Well, it seems that Hephaestus's experiments back then are indeed inextricably linked to this external 'disease' force."

Li Yang nodded with a solemn expression.

"If this speculation is true, then what he touched in the experiment is very likely to be the core mechanism of this fictional universe. I wonder if he will find a way to deal with it..."

"Where did Hephaestus's last experiment take place?" Aphrodite asked.

"We can't see the specific location yet, but we have found a suspicious coordinate." Artemis said, projecting a string of data in the air, "According to some signs recorded in the log, it's probably there." "

"We came back to inform about this matter. Li Yang, let's go over there and take a look! We will go all out to solve all this as soon as possible." Oniliyi seemed extremely positive for some reason.

Li Yang shook his head: "Going all out will definitely not work. Blue Star needs to keep people stationed here. Don't forget that God's Domain needs more attention..."

"Artemis and I will go ahead and investigate the situation on the spot."

"The rest of you, including Oniliyi, stay here and be alert to any abnormal situations."

"I obey your orders." The two gods who returned to China, [Vision] Pronoa and [Victory] Nike nodded.

Li Yang didn't waste much time, and he and Artemis quickly set off to the location indicated by the coordinates.

When they arrived there, what appeared in front of them was the ruins of a star field that seemed to have been abandoned for a long time.

"This...was a planet?" Artemis looked around in confusion, only to see a devastated and towering scene.

"Not just planets, I think the scale here is more like the entire galaxy has been devastated."

Li Yang slowly looked around, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Hopefully no big trouble awaits us..."

They carefully looked inside and outside the star field in the center of the void, and finally discovered several seemingly intact buildings in the ruins of a crater.

"There is something there!" Artemis squinted her eyes and looked at the architectural ruins in the distance and said.

The two quickly moved over and discovered that the buildings were actually a facility that was still in operation.

It just maintains a dormant state with low energy consumption, and the surface of the building is full of scratches and dust.

"Is this...the place where Hephaestus conducted his experiments?" Li Yang looked at the surrounding environment thoughtfully.

Artemis explored for a while and entered a few commands on a still-working console. Suddenly the entire facility began to wake up and many functions resumed operation.

After examining the surrounding scenery, she smiled slightly and said:

"It is indeed that guy's handiwork... Only that extremely conceited god would be eager to carve his name on all creations."

"I guess...the password for each of his file records is also his name."

She operated the console a few more times, and a huge holographic image unfolded in front of her eyes——

The records were sorted from back to front, so what came into view was the record of Hephaestus's last experiment.

The two looked at each other, and then began to watch carefully.

In the image, Hephaestus, whose divine power was nearly exhausted at the time, came to this desolate planet alone and launched a massive ritual formation.

"Not sure if this is the last record... but if it succeeds, this will become a passage to the origin of all things..."

"The place where we were born, the place where we come..."

"Through it, I will gain the power of eternal life and destruction, and from then on, I will transcend the boundaries of gods and become the eternal master..."

"Then, the experiment begins."

Hephaestus slowly recited ancient spells in the formation, and the entire formation was lit up layer by layer from the inside out.

At the same time, a huge force that distorted the void surged out from it and flowed wantonly.

At this moment, a black branch with a distorted force field suddenly emerged from the center of the formation, completely engulfing Hephaestus who was chanting!

After the branch sank into his body, Hephaestus' body twisted violently and let out an extremely painful roar.

Soon, his body became the cradle of that terrifying black substance, and some similar branches violently extended from him, wrapping up the entire ritual venue.

Finally, Hephaestus seemed to have been completely swallowed by that force, and his figure completely disappeared.

Instead, there was a huge sphere that grew wildly, swallowing up the entire star field!

The surface of the sphere was covered with black branches and hideous cracks, and an indescribable distorted force field flowed inside, like a monster that swallowed Hephaestus.

And this existence...

When Li Yang saw its form at a certain stage, his pupils suddenly shrank slightly.

This thing looks somewhat similar to the thing that T sealed.

The video finally stopped at this horrifying scene.

Li Yang and Artemis looked at each other, unable to hide their worries.

The record in front of them clearly showed the process of the birth of the terrifying force that called itself "epidemic".

Li Yang smiled: "Our previous speculation was correct. Hephaestus's experiment was indeed the root cause of all this."
