Chapter 263: Substitute Death God

Chapter 263: Substitute Death God

The long day finally came to an end.

Under Norman Aoben's miserable screams, the second hand of time just happened to pass midnight, and the curtains were completely drawn for yesterday.

It was only at this moment that Tony let out a long sigh of relief.

His nerves, which had been in a high state of tension, finally had a moment of respite. The exhaustion and powerlessness that followed, like a flood on a dam, swallowed him.

After removing the Shikai of Hephaestus, his spiritual power was directly consumed.

"So... tired..." Follow new stories at novelhall.com

Tony's eyes turned black, and his whole body could not muster any strength, and he directly began to fall from the sky.

"Sir, are you okay?" When Jarvis saw that the situation was not right, he immediately took over control of Mark Four and helped Tony land in the ruins of the Science and Technology Expo.

"I... I'm fine..."

Tony fell to the ground in a big shape and said weakly, "It's just that the consumption is a little too much and I can't muster up any strength. Let me rest for a while. By the way, how is Potts? Is she okay?"

"Miss Potts was too sad and passed out, but there is no problem with her vital signs." Jarvis said.

Hearing that Potts was fine, Tony immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good, that's good, I am relieved."

"Sir, allow me to ask you a question..." Jarvis showed a rare hesitation. "Your current state seems a little strange. Why can't I detect any signs of your existence?"

Although the modified Mark Four could be worn by spirits, Jarvis, who was an artificial intelligence, could not detect Tony Stark inside. So from the perspective of ordinary people and Jarvis, Mark Four was like a 'ghost mecha'!

"Heh, of course you can't detect it."

Tony's eyes dimmed slightly as he said bitterly, "Because I am in a soul state, the physical detection method can't find me."

"Sir, you mean... soul?" Jarvis did not doubt Tony's words. There was a hint of surprise in his mechanical voice, "This is unbelievable, the soul actually exists!"

"It is indeed incredible." Tony nodded in agreement, then continued, "But what is even more incredible is that I actually became death god."

"Sir,"

"What do you mean by death god?" Jarvis was silent for a few seconds after searching the database. He suddenly felt that he could not keep up with his master's thoughts.

"The literal meaning is to harvest souls and send people to hell. It should be a profession." Tony thought for a moment and said according to his own understanding.

"This... is too shocking." Jarvis did not know how to react.

According to its huge database, death god should be an existence like the 'myth'. It could not exist in the material world, but now this point of view was subverted!

"Yes... I also feel that it is incredible."

This guy... is even worse off than me!

Tony resisted the urge to slap him. He gritted his teeth and said, "According to what you said, what should I do?"

Lod raised two fingers. "Don't worry, I have two ways."

Tony widened his eyes. "What are those two ways?"

"The first way is to kill you. As long as I kill you now, Soul Society will never be able to do this. What do you think?" Lod smiled at Tony and said the most terrifying words with a gentle face.

"NO! PASS!!!!"

Tony was so frightened that he shuddered, and quickly waved his hand and shouted: "The second method, i chose the second method, murder is against the law!

"Tsk tsk..."

Lod shook his head with slight regret. Then, he took out an object from his pocket and threw it to Tony. "The second method is to become the substitute of death god. This way, you can temporarily hide from Soul Society."

Tony caught the object thrown at him and found that it was a special certificate that was neither gold nor copper. There was a skull printed on it. He asked in confusion, "death god... can this thing be used as a substitute?"

"Pretty much ---"

Lod was too lazy to tell him so much. He said, "This is the acting death god certificate. It can be used to detect abnormal Spiritual Power, ejecthis soul out of his body, and also suppress you, so that Soul Society can't detect your existence in a short time."

"Short time?" Tony frowned.

"Maybe forever, maybe tomorrow... In short, who can say for sure?" Lod smiled and comforted him, "If your luck is good enough, Soul Society might never find you in his entire life."

Tony's eyes twitched and he asked, "What if I am unlucky?"

"It's best not to."

Lod narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Once you are discovered by Soul Society, you will be sentenced to death. Believe me, you will never want to taste the feeling of being burned to ashes by the flames after being pierced through by the 'Soukyoku'."

"I... understand."

Tony's heart sank as he tightly gripped his agent, death god's certificate.

From Lod's tone, he could tell that the punishment known as the 'Soukyoku' was definitely not like the death penalty of the human world. It also pursued human nature!

"Oh right, you will need this thing."

Lod threw Tony a thick book and said, "Everything about death god, remember to do your job as a representative."

"The first grade teaching materials of the Spiritual Arts Academy?"

Tony was stunned. Just when he wanted to raise his head to ask, he found that Lod had disappeared.
