Now, having thoroughly explored the power within himself...
Gu Xinghe, on the other hand, began to ponder how to acquire more essential power related to [hope].
But right now, the most important thing is to remove the mark left on him by the Goddess of Thorns.
Gu Xinghe remembered that he had previously tried to remove this mark by using the power of his mist domain's tentacles to devour it.
But his attempts at that time were actually ineffective.
But now, Gu Xinghe has discovered that the power of his current [hope] essence can obviously eliminate this mark.
Perhaps both are unchanging essences and conceptual forces.
The only difference is that the Goddess of Thorns clearly has more accumulated power than Gu Xinghe.
So, this seems to be exactly how Gu Xinghe felt when he faced the Goddess of Thorns at St. George's University.
At that time, he attempted to use his misty domain to absorb the power of the Thorn Goddess.
Gu Xinghe had sensed the reason why the Goddess of Thorns could cause her mental pollution and harm.
It wasn't because of the other party's superior status that they exerted pressure.
It was simply because his "rank" wasn't high enough at that time.
So now, after Gu Xinghe's "level" has been upgraded.
Both are powers of the same level and rank.
He will be able to directly utilize his power, which represents the essence of hope.
Clash with the power of the Goddess of Thorns, which represents the essence of suffering, and then remove the power marks left on yourself by her.
At this moment, the thorn pattern that had been etched on Gu Xinghe's wrist had disappeared.
But after forcing back and stripping away the power mark of the Goddess of Thorns.
Gu Xinghe did not allow it to flow out and "pollute" the surrounding area.
Because he realized—like other forms of pollution that exist in this world.
After this power mark was removed from his body.
This does not actually mean that he has completely "eradicated" the pollution of the Goddess of Thorns' power.
However, if we want to minimize the impact of this power pollution...
For Gu Xinghe now, there are actually two methods—
Find a "container" to "hold" this pollution, or use his inherent power of "hope" to achieve "purification".
If he chooses the latter, it means that Gu Xinghe will have to use up his meager "two-person share of hope".
Let's engage in a process of "mutual cancellation" and "dissolution" with the goddess of thorns, who represents the essential power of suffering.
Because their essential power is clearly at the same level.
It would obviously be difficult for Gu Xinghe to directly absorb a large amount of its power.
Of course, he felt that if his Mist Touch level were increased a bit more, it might not be impossible to do so.
Therefore, it wasn't that Gu Xinghe was reluctant to part with his "hope for two" that he hadn't even warmed up yet.
Rather, he had already made plans for how to use his "two powers".
Furthermore, considering that the total amount of pollution from the Thorn Goddess's power is not large and is within a controllable range.
So, Gu Xinghe took out another coin from his storage space, one that he had won on the Ocean Oasis.
And it contaminated and "stored" the power of the Goddess of Thorns within it.
If the bronze coin containing his power that Gu Xinghe gave to Vivian and Fiona was a lucky coin...
This coin can now be roughly called a doom coin.
Gu Xinghe felt that he might be able to find an opportunity to try to get it circulating.
For example, legends may emerge that "whoever possesses this cursed coin will ultimately meet a bad end."
Moreover, if you use it in conjunction with your lucky coin, it might have some kind of amazing effect.
So, Gu Xinghe put the unlucky coin away.
After discovering that the essential power of his "hope" had a restraining effect on the power left behind by the Goddess of Thorns.
Gu Xinghe had clearly already planned the use and destination of his share of the "Two Rising Stars" power.
Then, he arrived at the basement where Chris was being held captive.
If his power is indeed capable of rivaling that of the Goddess of Thorns.
Now, rescuing Chris might not be too difficult.
At this moment, Gu Xinghe, who had just entered the small, secret room, saw Chris with her eyes closed and head bowed, just like before.
Cold, thorny vines wrapped around her.
The spikes on it pierced deeply into Chris's body, preventing her from finding relief.
But what is most shocking about her is the long spear that is stuck in her heart and pierces through her entire body.
At this moment, Gu Xinghe walked up to Chris, lifted her limp head, and placed a kiss on her face.
Then, he gripped the thorny spear that had pierced Chris's body tightly.
It felt similar to the first time he grasped the spear and tried to draw it.
The moment Gu Xinghe touched the spear, a chilling temperature began to spread from his palm to his forearm.
But then, a warm power from the [hope] within him quickly dispelled the chill.
Therefore, Gu Xinghe resolutely continued what he had just done.
"Hmm—"
However, this was accompanied by Gu Xinghe's actions.
Chris, who had been unconscious, suddenly regained consciousness and began to groan in pain.
