Chapter 1488 The Power of the Butterfly Geno Core (1/2)
Ignoring the angry crowd of Elysium spirits, Han Sen drew Taia and swung it at the Elysian Umbrella.
”Stop!” Gu Qingcheng shouted. It was not loud, but it quelled the roaring of the spirits. The area around the Geno Core Storage platform went quiet.
Han Sen stopped Taia mid-swing.
”Leave the umbrella and release the holy child. Do that, and I will let you live.” Gu Qingcheng looked at Han Sen and spoke slowly.
”My life is my own. I don't need your protection. If you want my life, then come,” Han Sen said, then stepped outside the Geno Core Storage.
The Elysium wished to stop him, and without saying a word, Han Sen lifted his sword over the umbrella again.
”Back off!” Gu Qingcheng shouted at the spirits. Then she said to Han Sen, ”Do you really think you can escape Elysium Shelter?”
”I would like to. But if I can't, the holy child dies with me.” Han Sen looked fearless, and he continued to walk with the umbrella and his sword drawn.
The Elysium bosses didn't want to leave him be, and they stared at Han Sen with anger. Han Sen continued walking forward, heading towards them.
”Step aside; let him through,” Gu Qingcheng said shortly.
”Master, the umbrella feels like the holy child's umbrella. But it doesn't look like it. Perhaps this is all a trick of some sort?” suggested an Elysium boss.
”Yeah, even if that was the real thing, no human can destroy that umbrella. We can't let him go!” another boss stated.
All the Elysium began to shout again, deploring the idea of letting him go.
Han Sen was shocked. ”At least Elysian wasn't lying when she said that she had an enemy in Elysium Shelter. It doesn't seem as if these spirits like her very much. She's definitely not the most reliable hostage to have.”
Gu Qingcheng said quietly, ”Why doesn't one of you become master of the shelter and replace me?”
”No, we wouldn't dare!” The Elysium spirits were all in shock, and they responded as quickly as they could. They obviously feared her.
”Then what are all doing there?” Gu Qingcheng's expression looked grim as she glanced at the spirits blocking Han Sen's way.
The Elysium parted to form a path, prompting Han Sen to sigh in relief. While he could now proceed, he still kept his guard up. He maintained his grip on the umbrella and his sword.
Under the gaze of all those Elysium, Han Sen slowly walked away from the Geno Core Storage. When he took another step, a creature suddenly appeared near him. It was a white snake, and it came lunging towards Han Sen with a snapping maw.
The Elysium were delighted at the sight. The creature, while it was motionless, had the ability to become entirely invisible. That invisibility would disappear as soon as the creature moved. So, it had waited until Han Sen came within range before trying to bite him.
