With the two crabs out of the way, the rest were nothing to be afraid of.
In just thirty minutes, all the Undead beasts were demolished.
The bridge, however, didn‘t disappear after the job was done. Instead, Shelly, wearing a traditional red dress, stood elegantly on top of the bridge as favonovel.com waved to Alex.
Alex furrowed his brows as favonovel.com approached the bridge but did not dare to walk any further.
“Come up here!”
“I won’t become younger, right?”
“You wish! What are you even scared of? You’re the owner of this spiritual tool! Do you think it’d absorb you entirely?”
Alex figured that favonovel.com was right. He shouldn’t be prohibited from touching his weapon after all.
As expected, favonovel.com wasn’t hurt in the slightest after getting on. However, favonovel.com felt something within his heart. Since this was a bridge that only the dead had ever crossed, standing on top of it made favonovel.com feel weird. The ancient and vast feeling of space, along with the weight of life and death, was a little too overwhelming.
On the other hand, the bloody stains on the bridge were enough to make his heart skip with fear. He could sense that it was not just ordinary blood. Neither the blood of the Undead beasts nor the crabs were left on this bridge. So that meant that such blood stains were not left by just any entity.
As if favonovel.com could read Alex’s mind, Shelly said, “You’re looking at the blood of a demonic god in the past. That bastard was very sinful. He had destroyed ten or so saintly grounds with his powers alone. He was able to kill high priests, beheading them in the blink of an eye. Not even the lightning tribulation could take favonovel.com down, but favonovel.com still ended up dying at Persephone’s Folly Bridge.”
Alex’s eyes widened. It felt like favonovel.com was listening to a myth. However, favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com was telling the truth, but it was odd to listen to such atrocities like some kind of normal past event
He looked at Shelly. She looked like a little girl, favonovel.com height was around 4.5 feets, but favonovel.com sounded like an old lady.
“Here you go!” Shelly threw something at Alex. “I told you I’d treat you to some crab roe. It’s the most valuable thing on those two crabs. So it would probably be beneficial if you ate that. And by the way, I’ll be taking the divine power now. It’d be a waste if you kept it anyway. You don’t even know how to transform yet.”

When Alex found the location of the Mystic Maiden and the others, all of them were starting to get worried. That was because the Mystic Maiden could sense Alex disappearing for a while. It was a very unnatural occurrence since this shouldn’t have happened in the first place.
After that, Alex told them about the space hallway.
“It leads straight to the Wasteland?”
“This is great! We’ve been stuck in the Endless Sea for nearly half a month! I felt like Iwas going crazy!”
Ynes and Pigsy were overjoyed. Although Alex was doing most of the work in their battles, they were still happy that they got to leave this horrid place soon.
The Mystic Maiden said, “It looks like your luck is pretty good. Space hallways are also known as wormholes. There are lots of them within the universe. Some organizations with such expertise would even take the time and effort to craft wormholes as a business! I wonder if the wormhole you found is natural or artificial?”
No matter what it was, Alex just wanted to head home right now. His father’s condition was worsening after all.
“Come on, let’s go home first!”
The group just walked through the wormhole after Alex said that However, the shark didn’t dare to get any closer, so they let it go instead.
After reaching the Pixies’ land, Alex jumped onto Pigsy’s back and grabbed Ynes with favonovel.com as well. They then rushed off at ten times the speed of sound.

Right then, an unexpected guest arrived at the doorstep of Rockefeller Manor.
Clay had brought some men with him, barging into the manor as favonovel.com yelled, “All Rockefellers, get your a*ses out here and knee! before us!”
