Klein looked at Marich, whose face was extremely pale and whose body was half charred, and asked:
"How are your injuries?"
Marich shook his head weakly: "It's not fatal, I won't die."
Klein nodded slightly, then said:
"Let's leave quickly too. The commotion caused by that sudden lightning strike was too great. I reckon some official extraordinary beings are already on their way."
"it is good."
Sharon nodded slightly, and at the same time threw a brown, semi-transparent bottle and a dark green object resembling a large canine fang at Klein.
"Your copy of 'The Book of Secrets' is already on the table in your living room."
After a brief pause, Sharon added:
"That guy was dangerous. He killed Steve using the contamination on his body. To be precise, Steve died from the collapse that occurred after the contamination on his body erupted."
"In the Rose School, only the divine child of the 'Bound God' can manipulate the power left behind by the 'Bound God' and the 'Mother Tree of Desire' with such precision."
"He is very likely a chosen one of some evil god."
...The chosen one!
Whose chosen one? Adam?
Miss Sharon told me all this because she realized I knew Cyril, and was subtly reminding me to stay away from him?
As the thought crossed his mind, he asked with some curiosity, "What kind of pollution?"
A barely perceptible flicker of fear crossed Sharon's pale face, then she shook her head slightly and said:
"I don't know. My spiritual intuition tells me I can't look at it, I can't think about it, otherwise... I'll die."
"Perhaps it's related to the paintings. The paintings he showed were very peculiar; the figures in them were all alive. I've never seen such an extraordinary person before; it seems..."
"It doesn't seem to belong to the twenty-two known extraordinary paths, at least not to me."
After a pause, she abruptly changed the subject: "It's time to leave."
"Okay, I'll do one last thing."
Klein nodded slightly, taking a few steps forward as he answered.
Then, he raised his right hand and snapped his fingers.
Boom! Boom!
One after another, bursts of crimson flames erupted from the ground in front of the surrounding warehouses, scattering the surrounding soil and creating waves of heat.
Klein raised his hand to adjust the top hat on his head that was almost blown off by the heat wave, then turned and bowed to Sharon and Marich.
The next second, crimson flames spread across his body, rapidly expanding until they completely enveloped him.
As the flames flickered, Klein's figure suddenly vanished.
Sharon looked at Marich, nodded slightly, and then her figure quickly faded and disappeared.
After Sharon disappeared, Marich turned around, stomped his feet on the ground, and ran at a speed faster than a steam train at full speed, disappearing into the darkness beyond the reach of the streetlights.
Two or three minutes after everyone had left, a howling gale suddenly swept across the warehouse area, and a particularly robust-looking figure slowed down and landed amidst the gust of wind.
At the same time, at the end of the street, several figures with steam backpacks and auxiliary power devices on their feet quickly approached.
As they approached, several more muscular figures appeared at the end of the street.
Inside a hotel in the southern part of the bridge, on the edge of Wildy Street.
Sparkling starlight flew out from the void, quickly coalescing into a phantom door covered with mysterious patterns. Then, Cyril and Verdu emerged from behind the phantom door.
Cyril looked around and casually asked:
"Why didn't you stay at Irving's house? Weren't you worried about him?"
Verdu was taken aback by his blunt question, then replied with a wry smile:
"Maintaining a certain distance is better for everyone; the Abraham family can't withstand any more blows now."
"Thank you for your help tonight."
"Although you probably won't need my gratitude, please don't hesitate to ask if there's anything I can do to help."
Sirion raised an eyebrow slightly and asked curiously:
"What if I wanted the 'Traveler' potion recipe?"
"Yes." Verdu nodded firmly without the slightest hesitation.
After saying that, he turned and walked to the desk by the window, picked up the paper and pen on the table and started writing quickly.
In less than half a minute, he put down his pen, picked up the piece of paper whose ink was not yet dry, and walked over.
He handed the paper to Sirion with one hand, pointed to his head with the other, and chuckled:
"I clearly remember all the potion recipes below Sequence 4 of the 'Apprentice' pathway, although I've never used this knowledge before."
Instead of immediately reaching for the paper with the "Traveler's" potion recipe written on it, Sirion asked curiously:
"Don't you think I'm taking advantage of your misfortune?"
"Besides, aren't you worried that I'll succumb to temptation by flaunting your wealth like this?"
Verdu shook his head slightly: "I personally believe that your act of saving me from danger is worthy of a Sequence 5 recipe."
"Besides, since Irving considers you a close friend, I think I can try to trust you. And didn't you just save me from danger?"
Cyril tilted his head slightly. He instinctively felt that this wasn't the other person's true thought, but he didn't refute it. Instead, he smiled and accepted the piece of paper with the "Traveler's" potion recipe written on it.
Main ingredients: One Siskun Demon Worm, one Shadowless Demon Wolf's heart.
Auxiliary materials: 10 grams of powder left over from the trapped ghost, 10 grams of lemon balm powder, a star map drawn with spiritual blood, and 80 ml of blood from the Shadowless Demon Wolf.
Ascension Ceremony: Establish special coordinates in four completely different and far-away locations deep within the spirit world.
The essence of this ritual is to return to the real world through those four special spirit world coordinates, so it can also be replaced by magical items that allow people to return directly from the spirit world to reality.
After quickly scanning the contents and memorizing them, Sirien gently rubbed his fingers together twice.
The paper was instantly ignited, quickly turning into ashes that scattered into the air.
After burning the paper, he looked at Verdu and said in a calm yet curious tone:
"That magical item that can create a full moon is with me now. Would you like to try the method Owen provided to circumvent the full moon's whispers?"
"No, no need." Verdu's eyes widened, and he waved his hands repeatedly.
"Waiting for the full moon next month is the same; I don't lack that little bit of time."
"Heh..." Sirien chuckled softly and nodded slightly at him:
"Okay, then I wish you sweet dreams tonight."
As he spoke, he took a few steps back, his body bumping into the mirror embedded in the wall. A deep blue light rippled out behind him.
Then, he silently blended into the mirror.
Verdu's eyes widened slightly, looking somewhat stunned, yet also relieved, as he watched this scene.
"A normal 'apprentice' couldn't possibly possess the ability to enter and exit the Mirror World at Sequence 7, let alone easily defeat so many powerful Beyonders single-handedly!"
"But his previous behavior didn't seem like he used any magical items."
"Is the power beyond the potion a gift from some great being mentioned in the travelogues passed down in our family?"
"Could Irving's ability to receive the protection of that being after reciting the name be related to him?"
"If that's the case, would that being be willing to protect the entire Abrahamic family? If so, what price would the Abrahamic family have to pay?"
He muttered to himself for a moment, then turned around and sat back down at his desk, picking up a pen and paper and quickly writing a letter.
On the abandoned warehouse grounds where a battle had recently taken place, a group of Storm Church Punishers and Steam Church Mechanical Heart members had sealed off the area, repeatedly searching for any possible clues.
Originally, this area should have been under the jurisdiction of the Steam Church's Mechanical Heart team for investigation, but because of the lightning that might involve the "Lord of Storms," the Storm Church's Punisher Deacon arrived even faster than them.
In front of the charred crater in the center of the open space, the Punisher Deacon, with his short brown hair, bronze skin, rugged features, and muscles that completely stretched his loose Storm Priest robes, frowned as he stared ahead.
Behind him, Ikonser, the captain and butler of the Mechanical Heart, approached quickly, holding an anciently patterned silver mirror.
"Clifford, have you discovered anything?"
The mature man, referred to as Clifford, paused for a moment, then said:
"It's certain that this charred crater was created by my Lord's power, but we don't know if it was achieved using special items."
Or perhaps it's because someone here suffered divine punishment.
"The wind around me tells me that several extraordinary individuals once stayed here and fought here, but I don't know the specifics."
Ikonser nodded slightly and continued, "We discovered remnants of the power of death and curse, and also found several spent shell casings in a corner of a warehouse. They were extraordinary bullets."
"The scene was so badly damaged that it's impossible to obtain more information, but it's likely that many of the participants were of sequence number 5 or higher."
He paused, then looked at the silver mirror in his hand:
"However, nothing is absolute in the mysterious world, even if those guys make a complete mess of the scene."
As he spoke, he reached out and gently stroked the mirror three times:
"Your Excellency Arodes, my question is: who were the participants in what just happened here?"
The surrounding darkness suddenly turned into nitrogen and argon, and shimmering water appeared on the surface of the silver mirror. Then, a line of words stained bright red emerged:
"Are you... sure you want to know?"
