Mike reflexively wanted to take the gun, but his movements stopped due to fear.

The huge shadow looked down at him.

As Mike's eyes adjusted to the darkness, he saw the shadow for what it was.

Black leather jacket.

A body as tall as a bear.

Honest face.

Like a simple and honest man who has just entered the city.

But at this time, this man gave him a great sense of oppression.

"You...how did you get in..." Mike shrank.

Tortured by nightmares.

His will was always teetering on the edge of fear.

Now he is as mentally fragile as a child.

Maybe it's a blessing in disguise.

Being so fragile, he was able to sense the darkness hidden behind the seemingly honest man in front of him without raising a gun, thus saving his own life.

The man looked at him honestly and honestly, and slowly said:

"I came in through the window, it's time to get up."

He paused for a moment, then said: "My name is Carter Lucas, you can just call me Mr. Lucas."

This was the first time he said his name after coming to Restoration City.

The person in front of me will also be the last person to hear his name.

Carter looked at the weak man on the bed with his usual expression.

But deep down in his heart, he was filled with contempt for the Restoration City Defense Force.

He looked as weak as a dry reed.

Just press it lightly and it will snap.

But he still needs the man in front of him.

It's not for him to fight, but for the identity of the man in front of him.

Represents the official identity of Restoration City.

Represents the identity of the nobility of Restoration City.

There are so many things a person of this status can accomplish.

Watch Mike slowly get up.

Carter looked out the window.

The sky was overcast.

It's a good time to do something.

Mike followed Carter.

His orders were to treat Carter as a baron.

So when he followed Carter, he didn't say anything.

Whatever Carter asked him to do, he would do it.

and……

Mike looked at Carter's body silently.

This man is very tall.

He is at least two meters tall and his body is very wide. It is no problem to hold two of him.

He has a big face, dark complexion, and wears an inconspicuous shabby coat.

If you don't get close to him, from a distance, he looks like an ordinary country bumpkin.

but……

'How did this man... climb to the tenth floor window...'

Mike couldn't help but shrink back.

The new boss that Baron Alik found for him seems to be an extraordinary man...

It looks scary though.

But there is no airs.

He even told Mike his name all at once.

Mike touched his stubble-covered chin.

Perhaps, currying favor with such an honest-looking person can help you get promoted faster.

He hurriedly took two steps forward, looked at Carter and asked, "Mr. Lucas, what mission are we going to do today? Why do we keep walking into the alley?"

Carter's narrowed eyes slowly moved towards the weak escort.

He was silent for a while.

Then a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said sincerely: "Catch someone, and then help me get a ticket."

Restoration City.

The heartland of humanity.

If it were normal circumstances, no matter how much my "old friend" invited me, I would never come.

But once you know that there is a lone member of the Servais family here, it will be different.

People from that family.

For Lucas's followers, who once knew the history of the Lucas family, the temptation was too great. That person was his future.

Although it is very difficult to do what Carter is responsible for, it is actually just a small program.

It's done now.

And that guy Eden also fulfilled his promise.

He handed over the contacts he had accumulated in the Restoration City and the Alik nobles to himself.

Carter looked at the medal on Mike's chest.

Have to admit it.

That guy Eden.

There is indeed a set of things.

During the dormant period, he successfully connected with the nobles.

Making those nobles obedient can't be achieved by just desecrating machines and protecting spells... That guy didn't know what kind of interests he used as bait to seduce those nobles.

What Eden does next has nothing to do with him.

What he needs to do next is simple.

Capture the sorcerer of House Servais.

Get out of this land of right and wrong as soon as possible.

The ghost chasers who came with him were handed over to Eden, and they were no longer of use to him.

"Catch someone..." Mike thought for a moment.

Why do I feel like a kidnapper?

If you catch someone, you have to run away.

He looked at the tall man next to him again, and his dark face...

Really like a kidnapper.

Carter nodded and continued:

"It's a simple matter... just arrest someone."

He obtained extensive information on Ken Servais from Eden.

School of trickery, three-ring sorcerer.

But I just arrived at the Third Ring Road two weeks ago.

Not to mention the combat warlock who has just reached the third level, even the fourth level warlock is nothing to him.

He is a follower of Lucas' secret art.

The secret technique of the soul is inherently much weirder than ordinary techniques.

And through countless experiments and more than a hundred years of study, he has a deep understanding of the Lucas family's soul secrets!

All he needs to do is capture him alive without triggering the self-defense spell given to him by the master warlock.

Then fly far away.

By using the Servais family as a test bed, he can gain a deeper understanding of the secrets of the soul, and may even come into contact with the origin of the past.

"..." Carter suddenly stopped.

Mike bumped into Carter's strong back, and he touched his nose.

This man seems to have something hard under his clothes.

He ran straight into it, as if he had hit a wall.

"Mr. Lucas, what's wrong?" he asked doubtfully.

But when he saw this bear-like man turning around with a solemn expression, he became alert and put the gun in his hand.

"Come out." Carter looked around seriously, then focused on Mike and said in a deep voice.

He knew exactly what caused this wave of power.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This power is the authority of the evil god of dreams.

Eden regrets it?

Or does he want to remind himself of something?

Following his words.

A turbid figure slowly emerged from behind Mike.

That is a person whose face cannot be seen clearly.

He seemed to be wearing formal clothes and holding an umbrella in his hand.

Mike followed Carter's line of sight and saw the familiar figure.

The sleeping memories awaken from the depths of my mind.

"Devil...Devil..." His legs weakened and he kept retreating.

He remembered it all.

Mike, who was already mentally exhausted, fainted under this huge stimulation, and the gun fell to the ground.

"Well..." Carter looked at Mike's miserable look and frowned seriously.

Then he looked at the guy whose figure he couldn't see clearly, and said slowly:

"The guy who hides his head and shows his tail..."

That guy Eden knows that if he sends out a guy who hides his head and tail, he will definitely be killed by him.

So this person in front of me.

They are enemies, not friends.

Ken also looked at the man in front of him seriously.

The pollution surrounding him also obscured his vision to a certain extent. He asked softly:

"Mr. Lucas? You are a ghost hunter."

The surname Lucas.

It's very sensitive at this juncture.

When Ken saved Zoe, he killed two cultists.

One of the cultists is the soul chaser.

But that person is not strong.

He couldn't even withstand the shock of a single soul and was defeated instantly.

And the person in front of him is obviously much stronger than that person.

Just by looking at him, you can feel a sense of oppression.

It's not just about body shape.

That is a reminder from the spiritual sense.

The man in front of me has the ability to take away his life.

"Ding--"

Ken heard a bell ring.

He suddenly turned sideways to avoid it, and where he originally stood, a bone hand appeared there.

Carter didn't talk nonsense to the pretentious guy in front of him.

Since we are enemies.

Then just kill him.

Bone Hand's whole body gradually appeared in the void.

It turned out to be a skinny little dragon with only bones left in its body.

There were green flames in his eyes.

'That's necromancy...'

Ken looked at the thin dragon warily.

The attack just now was more like a prelude to a summons than a sneak attack.

But at that moment, the ground was shattered.

The broken stones passed by Ken, and were shattered by the pollution surrounding Ken.

Although it is small.

But the strength has reached gold level.

"Ding--"

Another bell sounded from Carter's body.

Ken retreated decisively.

The huge man in front of him seems to be a soul warlock who is proficient in summoning.

This time the attacker was not at Ken's side.

Instead, he appeared directly beside Carter.

It was also a withered skeleton.

It's a human form.

Wearing simple cloth, he held a book in his hand.

Green flames also lit up in his head.

He looked at Ken as if he were alive.

He was chanting unknown spells.

It turned out to be a lich!

And it's not a serious lich. This lich obviously takes orders from the man who calls himself Lucas.

Turn intelligent creatures into undead summons!

This is the taboo among taboos!

But the person in front of me was able to display it with ease.

Ken's eyes narrowed, he couldn't let this guy continue to summon him!

You must take action first!

His umbrella tapped the ground gently.

The two chains shot toward Carter like sharp arrows, and at the top of the chains was filthy pollution.

That was a long time ago.

A blasphemy technique that Ken once learned from a cultist named Snake.

Directly use strong pollution as a means of pollution.

Pollution is a distorted reality.

Not only is space distorted, but time, concepts, etc. will also be confused.

As a means of attack, such a thing is extremely lethal!

But when Ken took action.

"Ding--"

The crisp bell rang.

No new summons were summoned this time.

The lich received the order, raised its hand and pointed at Ken, and a soul-piercing pain suddenly erupted in Ken's head.

Ken's consciousness was affected, and the two chains collapsed.

And at the same time.

A shadow still appeared beside Ken.

The bone claw penetrated Ken's chest directly from the chest.

The pollution surrounding Ken's body is just a mere appearance and can only be used to block the dust and vision.

Even the attacks of bronze-level warriors cannot be blocked, let alone the attacks of gold-level warriors.

The gold-level sub-dragon bones acted simultaneously at the moment the bell rang, piercing Ken's chest the moment he lost consciousness.

"The guy who is pretending to be a ghost." Carter said slowly. He thought this guy was some kind of difficult guy, but he didn't expect that he could be killed so easily.

Is it done...?

Carter looked carefully, and saw that the guy's body was still surrounded by dirty pollution, and his face could not be seen clearly.

It's really troublesome to clean up the contamination on the bones.

Not sure if he died.

So……

Carter's body emitted a clear bell again.

It was another soul interference, which came from the Lich's hand and shot straight towards the figure who was pretending to be a ghost.

The Yalong Skeleton pulled out his palm fiercely, intending to smash Ken's head into pieces.

But it's not completely pulled out.

The palm did reach back.

But he brought back a lot of flesh and blood.

The flesh and blood continued to proliferate, covering half of its palm and body at an extremely fast speed.

"It's broken!" The bell rang in Carter's body again, and he ordered the skeleton to protect itself.

But the speed is slower.

Countless bone spurs protrude from the flesh and blood and pierce into the bone seams of the sub-dragon skeleton.

Those bone spurs are just ordinary bones.

It cannot harm the dragon skeleton, but a huge number of bone spurs fill the gaps in the dragon skeleton.

at the same time.

[Desecration Technique·Pollution]

Using bone spurs as a medium and using the connection technique of the Trickery School, countless pollutions erupted from the bone spurs and flesh and blood. The Yalong skeleton was carbonized almost instantly in the strong pollution, and the flesh, flesh and bone spurs were also contaminated at the same time.

.

Then, the contaminated flesh and blood was peeled off.

There was smoke on the ground.

And that demonic figure stood intact in the pollution.

This was the first blasphemous method used by cultists that Ken saw when he came to Restoration City.

By annihilating all parts of Ken at the same time without resorting to any means, he can multiply his body indefinitely.

He can even use bone spurs as a means of attack.

"You are also a cultist..."

Carter's eyes became serious again, and the bells rang in his body again.

The lich raised his hand.

A stinging pain penetrated Ken's mind again.

And next to Carter, a figure appeared again.

This is the corpse of a short man.

He held two long swords in his hands.

It is not completely dry bones. Although its eyes are cloudy, it still has muscle tissue on its body.

The corpse of a gold-level human warrior.

Although he died, he used strange secret techniques to maintain some of his strength during his lifetime.

Ken narrowed his eyes and observed Carter Lucas carefully.

There was something strange about his body, and the strange bell sound came from a certain part of his body.

Each sound means the release of a spell.

Also means the formation of orders.

He can infinitely increase his advantages, use the lich to interfere with Ken's consciousness, and then continue to increase the number of summons.

Each bell can summon a summoning object, and at the same time give orders to all summoning objects.

However, there seems to be some restriction, which prevents him from summoning many summoned objects.

Another bell.

A stinging pain appeared in Ken's mind again.

The gold-level warrior circled behind him, seemingly planning to outflank him.

No, it's to cut off Ken's escape route.

And a well-dressed lich in gray robes appeared behind Carter.

If this continues, something will indeed happen.

but.

Ken touched his slightly sore head.

The soul chaser in front of me is pursuing the Lucas family's magic.

The technique used was completely different from the Lucas secret technique that Ken knew.

He still uses some kind of secret technique to communicate with souls.

thereby controlling the soul.

Allowing him to control many undead creatures.

And the spell used by his undead creatures is a blasphemous spell...

Every time Ken is hurt, there is also pollution.

Ken absorbed its pollution.

He [understood] how to use the power that the Lich used that made him sting.

Communicate with his soul and make it fluctuate.

It's still communication.

These soul chasers seem to be on another path of depravity.

There is no need for countless troublesome spell structures, but direct communication with the soul, or ordering the soul to attack.

"Ding——" The bell rang again.

But this time the bell didn't ring completely.

Instead, a sharp pain emerged from Carter Lucas' mind!

Severe pain.

A familiar yet unfamiliar pain.

It’s soul interference!

Not only him, but the soul flames in the eyes of the summoned creatures around him also dimmed.

When he came back to his senses, he saw dense chains wrapping himself.

"You...are you also a soul chaser?"

His originally honest expression turned into disbelief. The warlock did not reply to his words, but lightly snapped his fingers.

The nameless hellfire suddenly burst into flames.

This life-burning flame clings to the body and burns it away.

But it didn't burn.

It was just like an ordinary flame, burning through Carter's black leather jacket.

But it didn't hurt him further.

Because there is no flesh and blood with life.

A fire without fuelwood cannot burn.

And Ken also saw Carter's body.

That's a very weird body.

The bones of two... no, three people were pieced together in a strange way. There was no flesh and blood in the bones, only three burning green flames.

The magical machine exuding metallic luster links bones together one after another and controls the operation of this strange body.

This guy.

He is no longer alive.

The three skeletons seemed to be hollowed out, they vibrated, and another bell rang.

Another green flame ignited from his body.

And the skeleton of a lich appeared in the void.

Is this a lich?

No, this is not a lich.

A lich requires a phylactery to survive.

And the phylactery cannot be far away from the main body.

This guy obviously uses himself as the phylactery of these lichs and can control them.

So where is his soul hidden?

Like the last soul chaser, attached to the body, that is, in these bones?

A chill spread through Ken's body.

Ken raised his hand and touched his palm.

It was the rain that happened to pass through the gap in the distorted reality and drip on his hand.

It's raining.

Carter's voice sounded from the other side, but this time there was no hostility in his voice.

He looked at Ken with his big and honest face. This face, paired with the body made up of three skeletons, looked very strange.

This face must be some kind of creation.

"Hey...you came here after hearing about Servais, right?" Carter said quickly:

His tone seemed a little anxious.

He continued shouting loudly:

"There are not many of us soul chasers left in the temple's pursuit. I have been traveling on the road for so many years, and apart from you, I have only met one other soul chaser... There is no need for us to kill each other here.

"

‘Huh?’ Ken looked at Carter doubtfully.

What is he saying.

For the sake of Servis, isn't Servis just...

Carter continued to speak: "The warlock from the Servis family... is just a fledgling kid. Let's catch him together, cut off his limbs, and use them as experimental materials... The Servis family won't run away.

There is no need for us to kill each other for him!"

He looked at Ken sincerely and said seriously: "What do you think, we are not people on the order side. It is not easy to survive in the first place. It is better to stick together... You are also a soul chaser. We can study the warlock together.

Boost each other!”

"..." Ken looked at Carter like he was a fool.

The person in front of me did not expect him to be Ken Servais.

This is also reasonable.

Ken thought for a while and said, "What you said makes sense..."

"I knew you would listen to me!" Carter looked at Ken excitedly.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In theory, there will be many people pursuing Lucas' secret skills, but...

Lucas's Secret Art is a forbidden art.

Defined as a heretic by the Temple.

So there are very few soul chasers alive.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could really persuade the people in front of us to put down their weapons and study the child of the Servais family together?

He continued to persuade:

"You also know that we are not that easy to kill. Instead of wasting time here, wasting each other's time, and possibly being discovered by the temple... it would be better..."

He raised his head when he saw the unclear figure in front of him, and slowly said:

"It's raining."

Rain...what does it mean?

Carter looked to the ground.

There were many raindrops on the ground.

It did rain.

Carter asked tentatively: "So, do you want to find a place to hide from the rain and have a chat together?"

Ken shook his head.

The umbrella in his hand vibrated slightly.

"No, I have an umbrella."

He gently raised his umbrella.

Eh?

Carter looked at Ken's movements in confusion.

But then, he understood what Ken's actions meant...

Severe pain!

It’s not soul interference!

It’s something deeper!

His soul began to tremble on its own! Trembling uncontrollably!

My own soul-protecting shielding spell has no effect at all!

【Lucas·Soul Tremor】

Each of the spell structures engraved on the umbrella lit up.

Then, the warlock opened the umbrella.

As the umbrella opens.

The structures of each technique spread out regularly.

"No..." Carter's head showed a look of horror on his originally honest and honest face!

He doesn't know what will happen next!

But his instinct told him.

That would be a terrible thing.

As the umbrella opens.

【Lucas·Soul Stripping】

The four spiritual fires in Carter's body spread out uncontrollably.

They broke away from Carter's body and then dissipated in mid-air.

The flames in the eyes of the four lichs gradually extinguished.

They fell to the ground.

They finally rest in peace.

But the stripping hasn't stopped yet.

A pale green, thin soul gradually emerged from the blasphemous creation.

He looked around him in disbelief.

"How is it possible...I am obviously connected to the curse..."

He looked around and saw Ken.

His eyes suddenly became fanatical.

"You...you used the real Lucas technique!" His body floated in mid-air.

Tottering.

But he looked at Ken feverishly and shouted almost crazily: "What kind of principle is it! Lucas's technique does not require the other party's consent! What on earth are you..."

Ken looked at the figure in mid-air in silence.

That figure.

Didn't get distracted.

According to him, he seemed to be connected to his soul and the curse.

I don't know what the curse is.

Perhaps it is some kind of... blasphemous curse that is difficult to eliminate, such as a curse that parasitizes in other people's blood, absorbs luck, and eventually replaces that person forever.

But that meant nothing to Ken.

Because Lucas's technique is to make his soul escape automatically.

No matter it's the body.

Or a curse.

Just a simple break away.

Without something to rely on, the soul often dissipates.

But his soul still exists.

What is going on.

Ken didn't know what kind of Lucas secret these guys were studying, but it was obvious that he did have a brush.

but.

【Lucas·Soul Tremor】

The umbrella surface trembled again.

Countless structures vibrate, inspiring souls in the spiritual world.

The umbrella was broken.

While these structures resonate, they will put tremendous pressure on the carrier.

The structure of an umbrella cannot safely withstand this pressure.

But in the air, the soul that has lost its carrier cannot bear the tremors.

"What on earth are you——ahhhhhhh——"

He screamed and disappeared.

The soul is gone forever.

He may still have many methods that he hasn't used yet.

But he never got another chance.

The tall body fell heavily to the ground.

Mechanical sounds sounded on its body.

The magic machinery is still running.

But he is already dead.

This unknown ghost chaser died.

The pollution around Ken's body dispersed.

Raindrops fell on his umbrella.

The umbrella is broken.

Some raindrops passed through the umbrella and fell on him.

"That girl...sooner or later, I will kill her with my own hands..."

He was really angry.

Not only did he see through his identity.

He also directly passed him and made a deal with his own god...

If it weren't for the subsequent gods breaking Amy's connection and blocking Eden's existence.

That girl can even follow the clues.

Find out his current name and identity.

Such a passive feeling.

It’s been a long time since I’ve felt it…

But...

Still in the presence of his god.

He was slapped hard in the face by his own daughter!

"Ding dong..."

Alarm tone?

Eden's pupils shrank.

what happened?

How could someone come to him...

Who is he?

Amy Knox knows his identity?

Is Amy here?

Or is the Paladin coming?

Was he exposed?

His legs were shaking uncontrollably.

That's because of anger, but also because of fear.

The detection technique opens instantly.

Saw someone coming.

Eden breathed a sigh of relief.

It's Ken Servais.

That damn hairy boy.

He was holding a tattered umbrella, and his hair and clothes were soaked...

It's a little pitiful...wrong.

Eden's gaze paused for a moment.

He just.

It seems that Ken feels a little pitiful, and inexplicably feels like taking care of him...

He patted his face and straightened his clothes.

Take out a big umbrella.

Since the opponent did not use magic to block the rain, there is no need for him to use magic to block the rain.

Just a third-level warlock.

Ken saw the senior student walking out of the house holding an umbrella.

"Come in and talk, it's raining heavily outside." Eden said, without even noticing that his posture became polite for no reason, as if he didn't want to leave a bad impression on the man in front of him.

Ken nodded and followed Eden into the house.

"Why didn't you use magic to block the rain?" Eden turned back curiously and asked.

He noticed that his tone was a bit... unusual, but after thinking about it, he suddenly convinced himself.

Ken Servais is just a dead man.

He has no anger towards him anymore.

after all.

Carter Lucas is ready to kill Ken.

"I'm a little tired. I need to be soaked in the rain to stimulate my spirit." Ken said softly.

That Carter Lucas secret.

Although it didn't really resonate with the soul, it did hurt him.

The cold rain can stimulate his nerves and speed up the recovery of consciousness. Now, under the stimulation of the ice water, his spirit has recovered to a certain extent.

"Half of the three-ring basic seal has been printed." Ken continued, raising his finger in front of Eden.

The space ring on his hand lit up.

"In such a short period of time after graduation, I got a space ring..." Eden said with emotion.

As expected of a genius, he must have had some kind of adventure.

pity……

His eyes caught Ken's hands.

Eden's eyes froze.

There is more than one space ring out there.

There is another one.

That ring looks familiar.
