Mazim woke up slowly.
hiss!
The pain in the back of his head not only made this witch and Gu grin, but his mind was also confused for a while.
what happened
I was digging for the 'Philosopher's Stone' and I met those black dogs.
Fortunately, I was well prepared to cause heavy losses to those black dogs, and that bastard Eisen De didn't want to recover in a short time.
But that bastard also deployed reinforcements, chasing after me.
I had to choose the most dangerous secret path.
This is the 'Songshi' family's villa in Aicheng, usually there is no one there, but this time I was very unlucky, I ran into the 'Songshi' family who happened to be there.
My reinforcements...
Don't think about it!
Not one will escape.
Even if his mind is confused, Mazim has a fairly clear understanding of the 'Tine Stone' family.
That is definitely not something he can fight alone.
Even the people who gather all the witches in Ai City are not opponents.
Otherwise, 'Song Shi' would not be honored as an adult by those black dogs in Ai City.
correct!
Who attacked me
My 'philosopher's stone'!
And with the memory of 'turquoise', Mazim quickly sobered up.
As soon as he woke up, Mazim was thinking about his 'Philosophy's Stone'. When he realized that the 'Philosophy's Stone' was in his palm, he was slightly relieved.
But then Mazim's heart rose.
"Are you sure you got everything right?"
"certainly."
"Mazim never thought that I would follow behind him."
"Now is our best chance."
The voice of dialogue appeared in Mazim's ears.
One of them was slightly familiar.
The remaining voice was extremely unfamiliar.
Mazim judged from the sound that the two were not far away from him, but not close either. After at least a certain distance, he opened his eyes slightly.
Then, he saw the back of a person.
This person's back is also a bit familiar.
But who, Mazim didn't remember.
"The Philosopher's Stone is not so easy to get!"
Said the strange voice.
"Then will you give up?"
The familiar voice sneered.
The strange voice fell silent.
"look."
"Neither will you."
"What we have to do now is to make everyone think that Mazim got the 'Philosopher's Stone', and then, fly away."
"Especially now that the 'Tine Rock' family is involved."
"As long as we do it cleverly enough to muddy the water, no one will be able to doubt us."
"Don't you want to have the power of the 'Philosopher's Stone'?"
The familiar voice said eagerly.
The silent voice hesitated.
"think!"
"But the 'Philosopher's Stone' is only one..."
"I have a way to divide the power equally."
"Now, you pretend to be Mazim's current appearance and distract everyone's attention. Then, we will meet in the old place."
After four or five seconds, the voice replied, and when it opened its mouth, it was interrupted by a familiar voice.
"good."
After the unfamiliar voice gave an affirmative answer, it fell silent.
Obviously, it's gone.
After another ten seconds, the familiar voice was talking to himself.
"Did you really think I would share the power of the 'Philosopher's Stone' equally?"
"Don't say I don't know, even if I know, I won't give it to you!"
The familiar voice turned his head while talking.
When that slightly familiar face appeared in Mazim's eyes, Mazim instantly remembered who it was.
He is also a witch.
His whereabouts are secretive, but his ability is not weak, especially the opponent's [House of Wraiths], which has a good reputation among the witches and Gu people in Ai City.
"It turned out to be him!"
"Could it be that everything before..."
Mazim thought of Eisen De who suddenly appeared in front of him when he should have attracted his attention.
Some doubts were instantly cleared up.
That waste Richard Madden must have been 'exposed' by the guy in front of him to be exposed so quickly.
Moreover, Eisen De was able to find him so smoothly, and he had nothing to do with him.
As for why
So obvious!
Isn't it just for his 'Philosopher's Stone'
pity!
The opponent still underestimated his recovery ability.
Even if he changed his body and was extremely weak, he couldn't be knocked down by a sudden attack.
Maybe dizzy for a few seconds.
But it will recover very quickly.
Step, step!
Footsteps were heard.
After confirming the other party's identity, Mazim closed his eyes, but this did not hinder his actions. When the other party took his palm and wanted to take the 'Sage Stone' out of his hand , Mazim's other hand slammed into the opponent.
puff!
The opponent's neck was pierced just like that.
The other party opened his eyes wide, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
"Did you really think that the new body I chose wouldn't have the slightest bit of self-protection power?"
Mazim opened his eyes, looked at the mouse hiding behind the scenes, sneered, and pulled out his palm.
thump!
The other party fell straight to the ground, without breath, and his eyes were still wide open, as if he was dying.
Mazim simply ignored the corpse on the ground.
Even if the other party has the ability to become a wandering spirit, those things will take time and cannot be completed in a short time.
And by that time, he had already recovered, and even made a step forward.
How can you be afraid of a wandering spirit
The most important thing now is to get the power of the 'Philosopher's Stone'.
After confirming that he was still in the fork in the secret passage, Mazim quickly made such a decision.
There are people from the Songshi family in front, and Black Gouzi's pursuers behind them, and his reinforcements cannot hold back the people from the Songshi family for too long, and they will perish sooner or later.
Even if he escaped by chance, Mazim couldn't be sure whether there is a place for him in Ai City at this moment.
As soon as he appeared, he would definitely be targeted.
Not only because he is too weak at the moment, but also because of the 'Sage's Stone' in his hand!
So, the best thing to do now is to use the 'Philosopher's Stone'!
Only after using the 'Philosopher's Stone' and recovering strength, or even improving to a higher level, can the immediate crisis be resolved.
He who possesses the 'Philosopher's Stone' and has low strength, and he who does not have the 'Philosophy's Stone' and has stronger strength are completely different concepts.
Looking down at the pebble, Mazim grinned.
"A bunch of fools!"
"Did you really think I wouldn't prepare more backups?"
As Mazim said, he raised his hand and pierced the lower abdomen of the body, and took out an object the size of a cigarette case from it.
Wrapped in linseed paper full of medicinal smell, the smell of blood was quickly covered up, and even the wound was healing quickly.
But Mazim carefully opened the paper bag, arranged the holy stone (diamond), hundred-year-old oak leaves and a tube of seawater in the storm into a triangle, and placed the 'Sage's Stone' on the Then, he bit his left index finger and dripped blood on the 'Philosopher's Stone', muttering softly in his mouth.
"Holy, was your soul."
"The oak leaf was once your body."
"Storm, it was your cry."
"You were born in darkness, you bloomed in light..."
A lengthy incantation echoed at the fork in the road. When the incantation stopped, Mazim looked at the 'Philosopher's Stone' expectantly.
However, nothing happened.
"Could it be..."
"Did I remember the spell wrong?"
Mazim was taken aback for a moment, and then started the ceremony again.
But still nothing happened.
This time, Mazim panicked a little.
You must know that this is related to everything in his future.
If he can't complete the ritual, he's finished!
Without any delay, Mazim started the ceremony again with fear.
The spell stuttered, but there was no error, exactly the same as the previous two times, also, exactly the same... still nothing happened.
"what happened?"
"What exactly went wrong?"
"Could it be that the 'Philosopher's Stone' has secrets that I don't know?"
Mazim thought to himself.
But before he finished thinking, the pain came again from the back of his head.
boom!
Another brick hit Mazim hard on the back of the head.
This time is different from the previous one.
This time, the high-level evil spirit showed no mercy at all, it swung round and aimed at it, and under the inertia of force, cracks appeared on the bricks.
Mazim didn't even hum, just passed out on the ground.
The superior evil spirit came out from behind the opponent.
"easy!"
Looking at the other party who fell to the ground, the upper evil spirit did not return to its original appearance, it still looked like the person who attacked the witchcraft in the restaurant. He first picked up everything on the ground, including the 'Philosopher's Stone' After getting up, he continued to swing the bricks and smashed it violently. After confirming that Mazim would not wake up in a short time, the upper evil spirit stopped.
Sensing the gradually subdued battle sounds on the ground, the higher-ranking evil spirit turned around and burrowed into the wall beside it without hesitation.
After about a minute, Fang Yi walked in.
Looking at the bruised Mazim, he frowned.
After searching around and finding nothing, Fang Yi pointed at Mazim.
Immediately, Mazim woke up.
"The Philosopher's Stone?!"
"My Philosopher's Stone!"
As soon as he woke up, Mazim found that his 'Philosopher's Stone' was gone, he screamed in panic, and then he saw Fang Yi.
At this time, Mazim didn't even care about whether Fang Yi was from the "Song Shi" family, so he just rushed towards Fang Yi.
"Give me back my Philosopher's Stone!"
Fang Yi turned sideways, aiming at the back of Mazim's neck, with a sharp hand knife.
thump!
Mazim passed out again.
Looking at Mazim who was unconscious on the ground, he was delighted.
"The Philosopher's Stone?"
"It turned out to be the Philosopher's Stone!"
The vassal of Songshi was very excited, he picked up the unconscious Mazim, and quickly returned the same way.
South area, the periphery of the villa area.
The high-ranking evil spirit emerged from a shadow.
It is still very weak at the moment, and it is too strenuous to carry things continuously.
The upper evil spirit gasped heavily.
However, when he turned his head and looked at the upper evil spirit in the depths of the villa area, his face was full of smiles.
Only when the water is muddy will the fisherman benefit from it!
It's not because it senses that the boss is still a little unhappy, and it deliberately came to make trouble for the 'Song Shi' family.
"Have a good time."
While speaking, the upper evil spirit threw the pebble on the side of the road, and the whole body disappeared again.
…
When the upper evil spirit returned to the restaurant, the sky was already bright.
Ordinary people go about their day again.
Mimosa entered the dream ten minutes ago.
Qin Ran leaned against the sofa and waited quietly.
After he sensed that the high-ranking evil spirit had entered the basement of the restaurant, Qin Ran slowly got up, gestured to the elite 'Vicious Dog' lying in the corner, and left the room quietly.
In the corridor, there is also a 'vicious dog'.
Seeing Qin then kept wagging his tail.
Qin Ran touched the forehead of 'Vicious Dog', pointed to the master bedroom, and continued down.
To the 'violent dog' in the lobby, they touched their heads and gave the same gestures.
In fact, not only the corridors on the second floor and the lobby on the first floor, but also the roof of the restaurant, the back door, and the alley outside the front door were all arranged by Kieran as 'vicious dogs'.
In Kieran's opinion, these tireless 'vicious dogs' who only need some food to do their duty are the best guards.
After rewarding these 'vicious dogs' with petting their heads one by one, Kieran walked into the basement.
It was originally a basement for storing wine, but after Qin Ran's simple tidying up, it became a utility room.
The upper evil spirit is standing in the room.
"Boss."
Seeing Qin Ran walking in, the upper-level evil spirit graciously handed over the holy stone (diamond), century-old oak leaves and a tube of seawater in the storm to Qin Ran.
As for the spell
With the power of the contract, the high-ranking evil spirit believes that with the wisdom of his own boss, three times is enough to master it by heart.
Looking at the things in his hands, Qin Ran didn't start to arrange them right away.
Habitual caution kept him on guard for the last time.
Of course, Kieran used the money he had already used with confidence.
He didn't return to the room either, and in this utility room, Kieran directly used 40 silver crossing coins.
40 silver crossing coins are fully equal to 1200 copper crossing coins. If roughly calculated, it is equivalent to 1200 soul transcendences.
With such a quantity, Kieran's strength has been fully unblocked again.
[Spiritual attribute breaks through a layer of seal, a→a+]
[Strength, agility, physique, and perception breakthrough twice in a row, b+→a]
…
Among them, the breakthrough of the spiritual attribute consumed 600 copper coins, and the remaining four attributes, each of which had two breakthroughs in a row cost 150 copper coins.
Sensing the powerful feeling coming from his body, Kieran adjusted himself again with the breathing method of [Dawn Knight Body Training].
One breakthrough at a time.
One adjustment at a time.
Practice makes perfect, coupled with focused connection.
After almost a few seconds, Qin Ran got used to his current body.
Then, he took out the gold coin.
Just like exchanging copper coins for silver coins, only 30 silver coins can be exchanged for one gold coin.
However, because of the rarity and special functions of Jindu coins, this kind of conversion needs to be more. It takes roughly 35 silver coins to exchange for one Jindu coin.
If it was a normal situation, Qin Ran would definitely choose to exchange Yindu money to maximize his benefits.
But this time is different.
Not only was Qin Ran 'swallowing' Jin Duqian for the first time.
It is also because of the desire from 'gluttony' in his body.
Glancing at the superior evil spirit, Kieran chose to swallow the Jindu money in his hand.
This thought just came up.
The Jindu money in Qin Ran's hand suddenly changed.
