Spoiled (Lily)

Chapter 1384 An Impossible Task

The woman's voice was barely audible, and her eyes were filled with despair. Looking up, she said, "If

you have any strength left, you need to climb up and leave this place... I've been trapped here for two

years until I became a ghost. During that time, I broke my bones and used them to create handholds in

the wall, hoping to climb up."

But she couldn't escape. She never could.

She had been devoured by a Ninth-level beast, which was on the verge of breaking through to a higher

realm. It wasn't an ordinary Ninth-level Beast. It was an entirely different existence.

Essentially, the Godzilla was as powerful as a cultivator who had reached the Emperor Realm, just one

step away from ascending to the heavens.

She, on the other hand, was far from reaching the Emperor Realm. She couldn't escape from the

stomach of her opponent, who was much stronger than her. She had spent all those years only to

experience despair. Not to mention this foolish man.

"By the way, I don't know your name yet," Cloud suddenly spoke up.

The woman had nothing to hide, so she simply said, "Nephele. Nephele Rivera."

He thought to himself. The name suits her.

He had a feeling that she was usually a reserved person. She only shared so much with him today

because she considered him a dead man.

"I'm Cloud Crawford," he introduced himself. "It's strange that we've been talking for so long, yet we still

don't know each other."

She remained silent. To her, whether she knew him or not made no difference.

She proceeded to explain why she couldn't leave and the suppression that a higher-level ghost beast

had on lower-level cultivators. She also mentioned her failed attempts to cut open the Godzilla's belly,

as her weapons proved useless no matter how many times she tried. Even though she was trapped

inside its stomach, it remained stronger than her. Furthermore, she told him about her failed attempts to

climb out. Whenever the ghost beast noticed her escape, it would swallow her back down. Moreover,

as she was trapped inside its stomach, it fed on her power. She grew weaker day by day, while the

ghost beast grew stronger.

"So, we can escape if it can't sense us, right?" Cloud prompted.

Nephele sneered. "How do you propose we achieve that? You can feel it when you have nausea or feel

like throwing up. It's inevitable."

Not to mention, this is a ninth-level ghost beast in its final phase in the current realm. Our attempt won't NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

go unnoticed by it.

"Besides, it has four stomachs. I have been fighting against them for three years—" Before she could

finish her sentence, a noise interrupted her.

The stomach acid had corroded the rib bone she had stuck into the beast's stomach wall. Cloud, still

holding the bone, began to fall.

She had no choice but to catch him with her head, but his weight caused both of them to fall into the

stomach acid. In an instant, the last layer of skin on her face dissolved with a sizzle.

She pushed him up slightly, and he quickly inserted the remaining small piece of her rib bone into the

stomach wall. However, he could feel himself losing balance. I probably can't hold on any longer.

She sighed. "That's all I can do. You'll have to rely on yourself for the rest of your journey."

"I never expected to meet you before I died. At least I won't be alone in my final moments," she said

dryly.

Cloud didn't answer as he tried to come up with a solution. He looked up for a few seconds before

scanning his surroundings.

He knew very well that if Nephele couldn't break free, he definitely couldn't either.

What if we escape from below? He suddenly looked down.

"You said we'll be fine as long as it doesn't sense us, right?" he asked.

She hummed in response.

"Do you think we can escape when it excretes?"

Speechless, she stared at him incredulously. Finally, she said, "We can discuss it if you successfully

make it through its four stomachs."

After a moment of silence, she finally admitted, "To be honest, I've also considered this method. But the

frustrating thing about the Godzilla is that the undigested food always returns to its stomach until it's

fully digested."

If the food that entered its stomach wasn't fully digested, it would circulate back and forth in its four

stomachs until it absorbed all the nutrients. It doesn't let any food go to waste, does it?

Therefore, escaping from below was impossible.

Cutting open the ghost beast's belly and escaping seemed like a simple task, but in reality, it was

impossible.

Still, Cloud persisted, "What if it's fully digested?"

Nephele didn't think before she answered, "Then, we're done for. There's no point if we—"

At that point, they would simply become part of the digested residue, and escaping would be

meaningless.

Cloud had a different idea. "That's not necessarily true. Can you protect me if we go down?"

She didn't say anything.

She had contemplated passing through the four stomachs of the ghost beast to escape. However, she

always failed at the last stomach, always being sent back to the first stomach.

She had repeated this process many times before she died. Now, with only a little strength left, she

knew she wouldn't succeed.

"Okay. Let's go." Coոtent of Drąмąոovеls.cоm

Cloud smiled at her. "Thank you."

Nephele said nothing. Suddenly, her face contorted, emitting a dark aura.

He realized that she had unleashed all of her spiritual energy, no longer making any effort to preserve

her appearance.

Her act deeply moved him. Despite being strangers, she showed remarkable kindness in such a

desperate situation.

With determination, he let go of the rib bone and descended further into the stomach cavity.

The aura surrounded him, forcefully dragging him into the corrosive stomach.
