Chapter 611: Chapter 256: I am the Superman_5

I really arrived too late this time, at least twenty years too late.

The bodies of the twelve Holy Maiden candidates have long been buried in the Misty Hidden Forest, eroded by darkness and death, with nothing left.

Wayne thought it was a pity, as he consecutively signed contracts, the scene before his eyes flashed by, and one by one, ethereal figures solidified nearby.

Sheafoo...

Lisbeth...

Romma...

Buten...

...

The twelve Holy Maiden candidates had died many years ago, at least twenty years, and time had made them forget their memories from life, existing only as Resentful Spirits.

They were able to remain for such a long time, in part because they had Phoenix bloodlines, and on the other hand, the darkness and Death Power of the Misty Hidden Forest were indispensable.

In the darkness, perhaps even Heaven pitied them, waiting for Wayne to get the resurrection ’rebirth entry ticket’.

The twelve Holy Maiden candidates, having lost their physical bodies, were transformed into Magical Beings by The Book of Greed, existing as spiritual entities, inherently close to darkness and death, and possessing strong control over the Fire Element.

Because of The Book of Greed, they regained their lost memories, remembered their names, and reshaped their beauty from before death.

The beauty of the Holy Maiden candidates goes without question, two vivid beauties plus twelve spirits of varying flavors, a spectacle no less magnificent than the simultaneous appearance of three Knight’s Swords.

Saina was already stunned, as Wayne demonstrated abilities surpassing those of a God-chosen Knight, in a very short time, he had created fourteen followers using limited materials.

Moreover, the life forms of these followers were completely different from hers.

He truly deserved her devotion, as every approach would unveil new secrets...

Saina knew her thoughts were misguided, curiosity leads to attraction, which in turn could lead to downfall, yet she did not suppress her admiration, the scene before her eyes was worthy of it.

Wayne did not take in the beauty of the surroundings; the twelve Holy Maiden candidates had granted him a vast array of abilities, and each possessed Fire Elemental Affinity.

Identical abilities stacking repeatedly, quantitative change led to qualitative change, bringing Wayne’s Fire Elemental Affinity to an unprecedented level.

He had a strange expression as he turned to look at Saina, his eyes were a fiery red, emitting a high-temperature beam abruptly.

Super Vision!

Saina was not allowed to retaliate, took a hot blast to the face, and in an instant, her beautiful head vanished in steam.

"No wonder I couldn’t meet my Clark, it turns out Superman is actually myself."

Wayne looked at his skill bar, flight, super hearing, Super Vision, Fire Elemental Affinity... These newly acquired or twice-enhanced abilities were all closely related to the Phoenix.

Especially the Fire Elemental Affinity, which when unfolded, could be divided into several aspects, Fire Element Immunity, Fire Element Energy Absorption, Energy Release.

Super Vision belonged to one type of Energy Release, capable of being emitted from the eyes or other parts of the body.

Wayne took a deep breath, holding back his eagerness to try, now was not the time to discuss this, the pressing matter was to subdue the fourteen Resentful Spirits.

He looked around and the more he saw, the more astonished he became; each girl was more stunning than the last, and picking any one of them at random would reveal an impressively enduring beauty.

This was bad, making him appear to have ulterior motives, as if he was saving people to form a harem.

Why are they all so beautiful? Now he had a major misunderstanding he couldn’t clear up.

Wayne raised his hand and wiped off a bead of cold sweat, surrounded by fourteen fragrant beauties, their gazes filled with surprise or confusion, and among them, a fair amount of adoration, instinctively puffing up his chest.

"Ladies, are you ready for revenge?"

"..."x14

The beauties first looked puzzled, then gathered together to whisper among themselves.

"Did you see the contract of servitude? It’s too harsh, we only get magic power if we obey him, what if... what if he’s a bad guy?"

"That’s not possible, Wayne isn’t that kind of person."

"Right, I feel the same, he is a God-chosen Knight, he can’t be a bad guy."

"The Pope is also a good person, representing the Goddess and The Church, but what was the result?"

"After all, he is God-chosen..."

"Wake up, he was chosen by three Goddesses!"

"Isn’t that even more impressive!"

"Now that you mention it, it really is very impressive."

"I want my revenge, I won’t refuse him, what about you?"

"I miss home..."

"..."x14

After a brief exchange, the Holy Maiden candidates nominated two representatives.

Otilia.

Regina.

Wayne: "..."

After much discussion, they actually selected the traitor, well done, folks.

Wayne glanced at Odelia, whose lips curved up slightly indicating that she would stand by Wayne’s side and help take down this group of "best sisters."

Wayne was terribly moved, and at the same time, he refused Odelia’s kindness. They were all pitiful people; he didn’t want to take advantage of them. It was best to just follow the contract.

Odelia’s smile grew wider, and turning to the group of sisters, she thought, this guy is still alright.

Sisters, charge!

"Eh, Master?!"

Regina spoke as per the contract, feeling as though the word burned her mouth.

If it were a God-chosen Knight, calling him master wouldn’t matter, but she knew Wayne. They had even fought a battle before, as rivals with equal status.

Though she hadn’t won and had been thoroughly chastised.

"Don’t like the title? Just call me by my name."

Wayne took a step back conveniently. Master, huh? Fourteen maids, all so beautiful... trouble was bound to happen. Forget it then.

Poor heavens, he really was here to save people; he didn’t want his original intention to become stiff one day.

"We’ve discussed it and are very grateful for your kindness. If you can help us fulfill our wishes, we are willing to become your Resentful Spirits," Regina said.

"Who do you want revenge against?"

"The Church."

"That’s too broad. I can’t do that," Wayne waved his hands repeatedly. Hefei and Veronica were also members of the Naturalism Church, and Hefei was even the High Priest.

"Then the Pope."

"That is possible..."

"That’s also not possible!"

Just as Wayne nodded in agreement, Saina interrupted him, stepping quickly behind him and said in a low voice, "The Pope is the highest authority of the Church; he cannot die."

As she finished speaking, she attracted the angry stares of fourteen beauties.

Unfazed, Saina maintained her composure until Wayne also glared at her. Then she altered her words, "At least the Pope can’t die while in office. His death would have a significant impact on The Church, the Life Alliance, and the entire God-chosen Continent’s structure of faith..."

Saina expounded plenty of grand principles. She, too, wanted the Pope dead, but now wasn’t the time. The Pope’s status meant that he couldn’t die while in term.

"The Pope can’t die, but Ludwig can," Saina insisted.

As she spoke, she described the Pope’s strength, the level of suppression, his constant potential to become a Demigod, and that only a Naturalist Knight would have the power to slay him.

To speak frankly, fourteen green girls, mobbing him, wouldn’t even be able to challenge the Pope. Save your breath and change your target for revenge.

The beauties showed indignation. This won’t do, that won’t do, life sure is boring. Might as well be dead.

"It’s not that there’s no way..."

Wayne looked at the three Knight’s Swords in front of him, squinting his eyes and said, "The Pope can’t die, Ludwig can. He won’t be the Pope forever; sooner or later he’ll step down."

The beauties were overjoyed, chattering about Wayne’s handsome charm, leaving the latter expressionless.

Telling the truth really isn’t flattering!

"Don’t get too excited yet. The Pope has been in power for two hundred years, and he can hold on for another two hundred. Can you really wait that long?" Saina sneered repeatedly. Although she didn’t know what Wayne had done, she understood somewhat. After Wayne remade the Resentful Spirits, he had considered their plight and offered them a fair and just contract.

Such good treatment at any level, she never received!

Saina, unhappy with her lot, envied others who were content. She laid out the facts, dampening the spirits of the Resentful Spirits.

"I am willing to become a Resentful Spirit. I believe Wayne will help me fulfill my wish."

Odelia stepped forward: "It’s been too long. I don’t want to waste my time in this hellhole. If we have to wait anyway, I want to wait outside."

Regina weighed her options for a moment. Revenge was important, but her sisters’ lives were more so. She decided to follow Odelia and joined Wayne’s side.

Blind conformity, the reliance of the individual human being.

When a person encounters difficulties or problems in life that they can’t solve alone, they tend to rely on others, subconsciously giving up thinking and seeking the security of the larger group.

Following the lead of Odelia and Regina, the twelve other beauties joined as well.

Resentful Spirits +14.

Wayne: (一`´一;)

Looking at the innocent Odelia and then at the constantly sneering Saina, he was momentarily at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.

After thinking about it, he decided to follow his heart.

"Since you all trust me so much, I’m not going to spout grand but empty phrases. We can’t kill the Pope now, but I can help you collect some ’interest’..."

Wayne looked at everyone: "The mastermind is the Pope, but the one who killed you is someone else. Name them, and I’ll bring them here."
