Chapter 009: Finding People
获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第009章 找人
But regardless of the situation, he had to go. So Wang Bo, along with Hela, teleported directly into the building where Mary Jane was imprisoned.
But the next second, with a shift in the surrounding space, Wang Bo and Hela appeared inside a circular arena.
The stands around the arena were empty, but torches burning on the walls illuminated the entire arena brightly.
At the same time, their arrival seemed to trigger some mechanism.
Creaking sounds came from all around the arena.
Wang Bo glanced around; the iron bars at the four exits of the arena slowly rose. From the eastern exit came the sound of hooves, and a nightmare steed carrying a headless knight emerged.
From the western exit floated a ghostly mage in a long robe, holding an exquisite staff.
From the southern exit, accompanied by light footsteps, a skeleton archer radiating death energy walked out.
Finally, from the northern exit, a pale-faced zombie swordsman stepped out.
Four monsters surrounded Wang Bo and Hela from four directions, glaring at them, their terrible death energy churning endlessly, as if trying to drag the living into hell.
But neither Wang Bo nor Hela paid any attention to these four monsters.
"You or me?" Wang Bo said casually, surveying the surroundings, speaking to Hela.
Hela rolled her eyes. She understood what Wang Bo meant—after all, he was just asking her to handle it.
Oh well, they were just four small fries anyway.
Hela stepped forward, casting a disdainful glance at the headless knight, ghostly mage, skeleton archer, and zombie swordsman, and said softly, "Kneel!"
Her voice was not loud, but it resonated in all directions.
This was the divine word of the Goddess of Death, a command and a decree.
Neither the living nor the undead could defy the words of the Goddess of Death—such was a deity.
The headless knight, ghostly mage, skeleton archer, and zombie swordsman, upon hearing the command, involuntarily knelt down, lowering their proud heads.
Hela waved her hand and said, "End yourselves."
So the death knight chopped off his own head, the ghostly mage's body glowed and then self-destructed.
The skeleton archer extinguished his own ghostly flame, and the zombie swordsman cut off his own head, offering it up.
With just a few words, Hela had killed four powerful undead beings.
The majesty of the Goddess of Death was evident.
No undead could defy Hela, unless it was another death deity.
After watching Hela dispose of the four undead, Wang Bo withdrew his gaze. "I've already checked; this should be an underground dungeon."
"Underground dungeon?"
"Exactly, the kind that often appears in fantasy worlds." Wang Bo had an idea why they were here.
"When we entered the building, the space was swapped, so we ended up in this dungeon. If we don't deal with this quickly, this dungeon will soon appear in Spider-Man's world. So I plan to fix this spatial rift as soon as possible. But before that, I need to ask you for a favor."
Hela looked at Wang Bo and didn't refuse, since she was still his subordinate.
"Due to spatial fluctuations, I can't map out the entire dungeon. But I know Gwen and the others are definitely in this dungeon too. I need you to find them and bring them back safely."
Hela nodded. "Fine."
"Go ahead." Wang Bo waved his hand, dismissing Hela, and began to stabilize the space here.
Stabilizing the space didn't take much effort, since it wasn't really Wang Bo doing it, but his cheat—he was just a conduit.
[Alright, this spatial rift has been fixed.]
Before long, the cheat told Wang Bo that his work was done.
Wang Bo looked around but saw no sign of Hela. It seemed she hadn't found Gwen and the others yet, which surprised him a bit.
With Hela's strength, finding them shouldn't be difficult, right?
Was the Goddess of Death bad at finding people? That was nonsense. As the Goddess of Death, even if she wasn't skilled at searching, finding a few people in a dungeon was no problem.
At her level of power, many small tricks came naturally.
The reason Hela hadn't brought them back yet had only one explanation.
She was slacking off.
No, maybe not necessarily slacking off.
This was a dungeon, full of undead creatures. Perhaps something had caught Hela's attention, tempting her to set aside his orders.
That wasn't impossible, given that Hela's loyalty to Wang Bo wasn't very high.
She wouldn't obediently follow his commands.
Wang Bo had no choice but to sigh and go find the others trapped in this dungeon himself.
After leaving the arena, Wang Bo released his magical power, extending it outward to explore the entire dungeon. Gradually, the structure of the dungeon came into his mind.
He found that this dungeon was like a maze, with not only extremely complex corridors but also numerous hidden rooms.
At the same time, Wang Bo sensed various undead creatures scattered throughout the dungeon.
This dungeon was built in a terraced structure, and Wang Bo had explored about twenty-five levels so far.
He was currently on the seventh level.
Spider-Man Noir was on the ninth level, fleeing from a group of skeletons and zombies, but his agile movements suggested he was still safe.
Meanwhile, Gwen, Spider-Ham, Peni Parker, and Peter Parker had gathered together and were on the fifteenth level, fleeing from a group of ghosts.
They were also safe for now.
Additionally, Wang Bo found the kidnapped Mary Jane on the third level, along with her captors.
But those two were already dead.
Mary Jane had survived because she was in a hidden room.
However, Hela had disappeared, likely having gone deeper than the twenty-fifth level.
Wang Bo wanted to use his X-ray vision to see what was below the twenty-fifth level, but when he reached the twenty-fifth level, a barrier blocked his gaze.
This piqued Wang Bo's interest a little, as his vision was now incredibly powerful—his far-sight stronger than an astronomical telescope, his micro-vision surpassing a microscope.
A barrier that could block his gaze proved that this dungeon was not simple.
This made Wang Bo somewhat interested in this dungeon.
