Their world doesn't need gods.

Chapter 162 Pearl of Hate

[But... why did the little girl from the Dragon Clan appear in this world? Didn't the troublesome woman of the Dragon God die? ...It's unlikely that she was plotted against by those two old men. Could it be that she was sent by one of her daughters...]

The little stone statue ignored Cheryl's complaints and started talking to itself.

He seemed very confused about the appearance of the silver-haired dragon girl here.

[And that Alfred too, he is definitely not the reincarnation I arranged... If that's the case... Tsk, could it be Noya from the Oss Clan who did this? But even if it was that damn girl, she shouldn't dare to do such a big move... Could it be...]

(What on earth is this guy struggling with?)

Cheryl had no idea what the little stone statue was saying and just felt dumbfounded.

It seems that the so-called world of gods is also not easy to live in.

She decided to ignore the little stone statue muttering to itself and first retrieve the equipment in the puppeteer's proxy repeater.

Since Alfred and the dragon girl have joined the fight, it shouldn’t take long for the search party to reach the location of the proxy repeater.

Cheryl must retrieve that thing before them.

"Jasmine, please."

She said to the little fox who was resting at her feet.

"Chiji~Chijiji~?"

The little fox Jasmine called softly a few times, as if to confirm with Cheryl whether she really wanted to continue like this.

"There's no turning back for me. And I won't let go of that bastard Duke of Opold and this damned empire no matter what I say."

Cheryl lowered her voice and spoke with hatred.

"Chi chi chi~"

Jasmine chirped a few times as if she felt sad, and shook her body slightly.

Then, her pure white body gradually grew larger until it was big enough for people to sit on her back.

"Thank you Jasmine, let's go."

Cheryl touched Jasmine's head lovingly and sat on her back.

Jasmine carried Cheryl and headed deeper into the forest.

Because Jasmine had been using special concealment magic to almost erase her and Cheryl's presence, the large number of out-of-control puppets in the forest did not notice their presence.

Although these puppets have become very durable and have extremely strong vitality due to special enhancements, their other abilities such as perception and attack power are no different from those of ordinary goblins and wolf hunters.

The man and the fox easily passed through the defense network they formed and came to the side of the puppet master's proxy repeater.

Sheryl got off Jasmine's back and pulled out a pair of special white gloves.

This pair of gloves is attached with extremely powerful isolation magic, which protects the wearer from being contaminated and harmed by the effects of cursed items when they come into contact with them.

She removed an external component of the proxy repeater and took out a small purple-black bead the size of a pearl.

This bead is called the Bead of Hate.

It can absorb the hatred of the surrounding souls and transform it into polluting magic.

There is an invisible magical connection between the puppeteer's proxy repeater and the puppet.

It was through this connection that Cheryl injected the contaminating magic power from the Pearl of Hate into Roderick's puppets.

Through contaminated magic power, the specific abilities of those puppets can be greatly enhanced.

Of course, this comes at a cost.

The reason why Roderick's puppets became out of control and full of aggression was because the polluting magic in the Pearl of Hate affected the puppets' normal minds.

Their hearts are filled with inexplicable hatred, and they want to destroy everything in the world in order to vent the hatred that is forcefully filled in their hearts.

Cheryl observed the Orb of Hate for a moment, then took out a magic device to measure the remaining amount of magic inside.

"It's almost all used up... The magic power consumption is much greater than expected. And it can only strengthen defense and vitality. Only a very small number of individuals have the aptitude to strengthen other abilities...

Furthermore, once the enhancement exceeds 30% of the original ability, it will seriously affect the puppet's mind and cause mental abnormalities."

Sheryl took some brief notes.

Polluting magic comes from the primitive instinct of life, and the most basic primitive instinct is the desire to survive. Based on this theory, it is much easier to use the Orb of Hate to strengthen the defense and vitality of monsters than other abilities. The magic consumption is also much less.

The results of Sheryl's experiment were similar to what the statue told her.

She had already heard about the detailed properties and uses of the Pearl of Hate from the small stone statue.

But Sheryl wanted more detailed experimental data because she didn't trust the little stone statue at all.

That's why Sheryl used Roderick and Illya and Alia's student council to personally test the detailed ability parameters of the Pearl of Hate in order to plan its next use.

Overall, Sheryl was very satisfied with the performance of the Pearl of Abomination.

As long as it collects enough hatred, it can even easily create a large number of monsters with vitality comparable to that of low- and medium-level demon kings, and use them as meat shields.

Although these demons cannot be controlled, they can be used as a special kind of bomb to destroy fortresses and other strongholds or to attract the enemy's attention.

That was enough for Sheryl.

Now the only thing left is to find somewhere to collect enough hatred to charge all the beads of hatred on hand.

(Let’s go find that guy Roderick tonight. He will most likely be locked up for a while. If we want to collect hate emotions, that idiot whose ambitions don’t match his abilities is quite suitable.)

Cheryl carefully put away the small box containing the Pearl of Hate and began to think silently in her mind.

I don’t know if it’s because of the time traveler.

Roderick's hatred can charge the Orb of Hatred much faster than the hatred of ordinary people.

Moreover, he has a very bad character. His inferior behavior and extremely bad speech can easily cause people around him and his own puppets to feel strong hatred.

To Sheryl, he was simply an extra-large charger of hatred.

With the existence of Roderick alone, Sheryl doesn't need to collect hatred by slaughtering or abusing others and monsters.

For this, she was quite grateful to Roderick.

(The next step is to conduct experiments on humans... Lucius must have used the Soul-Bite Ring many times. He may have reached the minimum test standard by now.)

Cheryl pondered in her mind and installed a small device on the proxy repeater at the location where the Pearl of Hate was placed.

Then, she injected magic power into the device and activated it.

The Puppet Master's proxy repeater immediately fell into an overload state, emitting white smoke and electric sparks. It would be completely destroyed in a short time.

(That's it.)

Cheryl said as she sat back on Jasmine's back.

"Jasmine, let's go."

"Chiji~"

Then, the man and the fox disappeared into the forest.
