The ground is huge.

The entrance to the cave, including the 100-meter depth downward, was just an entrance.

After passing through this entrance, it is an extremely complicated road, there will be an intersection every few tens of meters, and each road will be arranged with traps and traps.

Some are arrows.

Some are acids.

Or, simply, landmines.

But whatever it is, the superior evil spirits can imagine what kind of predicament the people and weirdos who enter here normally will face.

Every step forward is incredibly difficult.

And that's just the beginning.

When the superior demon descended again, it saw a dense mass of worms.

Flooding the field of view makes it uncomfortable.

Moreover, these insects continue to devour each other, and then, the eggs die, and the corpse directly becomes the nutrients of the eggs, so that the eggs can hatch and grow into adults in just a few minutes, and then, they begin to devour and die again.

If the higher-ranking evil spirits were still a little hesitant when they saw the complicated secret passage full of traps before, then at this time, the high-ranking evil spirits had already determined that this place was not built in a hurry.

Instead, it was built in advance!

That's why Victor returned after the failure of the Ring City.

No!

Wrong!

Even if you return here, you shouldn't make such a fanfare.

Unless......

Is it a sound to the west?

The superior demon habitually narrowed his eyes.

That appearance was a bit similar to Qin Ran.

There is no doubt that after staying by Qin Ran's side for a long time, some of the small habits of the high-ranking evil spirits have unconsciously moved closer to Qin Ran.

Of course, it's not just a habit.

And the way to think!

Just like at this time, after doubts appeared in the bottom of his heart, the superior evil spirit went down at a faster speed.

Layer upon layer.

Ignoring everything.

The high-ranking evil spirits that have turned into nothingness are like water droplets that melt into the sea, and they go directly to the bottom.

Then, it saw 'Victor'.

At this time, 'Victor' closed his eyes and breathed long, as if he had fallen asleep.

However, the superior evil spirit keenly sensed that there was a power hidden in the other party's body.

It only takes a slight touch to burst out.

The superior demon definitely does not want to be such a person.

It's immortal, that's right.

But that doesn't mean it's willing to die.

Isn't it good to be alive?

It's not a masochistic pervert.

The superior evil spirit left this place quickly, and there was no way back, it returned directly to Ai, and when it came out of a shadow, the sky had completely darkened.

The superior demon glanced up at the night sky, and let out a low cry from his mouth.

It's like a spell, but it's not a spell.

It's just that the witch Gu is proficient in some small tricks in mystical knowledge.

The cold wind gradually blew.

The already cold temperatures of late autumn have dropped again.

When a thick layer of fog appears, the temperature becomes even more dripping to the point of ice.

In the mist, illusory sounds and shadows appeared.

They're just ghosts without a sense of consciousness.

It is also the loot that the superior evil spirits usually 'collect'.

You know, after completing the routine patrol every day, the upper evil spirits spend most of their time collecting 'men'.

That's right, it's the subordinates!

As Qin Ran's retinue, the high-ranking evil spirit knew very well how important it would be to have a useful subordinate, especially in this dungeon world.

It trusts its boss to do everything it needs to be a top fighter.

And the rest?

Naturally, it was handed over.

Finding out the news, collecting loot, tracking and so on, it's all about it.

So, what's wrong with it collecting some of its men?

This is just to better fulfill the boss's instructions.

What's more, the protection of knowledge by those witch people is so poor that it doesn't want to see it at first, but those people always dangle in front of it.

Not only did he mutter, but he also took out notes from time to time to record.

It's to pass the time, to learn by the way, what's wrong?

This is to better serve the boss.

It's all about the boss.

Definitely not for laziness.

Even if it's a bit too much, it's normal.

Looking at the thousands of ghosts in the mist, the superior evil spirit commanded in a low voice.

"Find this guy."

A portrait of Victor appears in the hands of the superior evil spirit, in color and high definition.

It's something it just touched on some weird body.

When Victor's affair was revealed, the portrait of Victor had already become a hot commodity, and many strangers and weird people were buying, but most of them were blurry, and this kind of color and high-definition was considered a first-class product.

When the superior evil spirit sees it, he will naturally not let it go.

After all, its mission is also to find Victor.

In the thick fog, thousands of ghosts saluted the superior evil spirits in unison, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

With the ghost's departure, the temperature began to return to normal, and the fog dissipated.

The superior evil spirit stretched his waist, and he didn't think the ground was dirty, so he nested in the corner.

It doesn't worry about its boss's punishment.

Because, it knows very well what kind of person its boss is.

Lay the saddle on the right horse.

Even if it's a little stingy, as long as you get things done, everything will be fine.

And in this regard, the superior evil spirit is very confident.

Since Victor put the place that attracts attention near Aicheng, it can only show that the real purpose of the other party is also near Aicheng.

As for where?

It trusts its subordinates.

It's as if its boss believed in it.

It has never let its boss down.

And its counts did not disappoint it.

It was only ten minutes later that there was a discovery.

"Sewers?"

The superior demon chuckled.

If there is one city of Ai that is most familiar with it, the sewers are definitely one of them.

Moreover, most of its subordinates are from where they come from.

Victor would be there!

It's really great!

One turned over, and the smiling superior evil spirit disappeared.

……

Victor felt colder.

The successive deaths of the 'stand-in', coupled with the last strokes of that 'temporary stronghold', had already made him run out of oil, even if he had borrowed the core power of the [Philosopher's Stone] before.

At this moment, he must get the [Philosopher's Stone] core again.

But it's not an easy thing to do.

In order to keep the core of the [Philosopher's Stone] safe, he put a lot of effort into arranging this place.

To open this secret room, not only the corresponding spell is required, but also the gesture and key, all of which are indispensable under three layers of protection.

Keys, Victor has always been in this real body, and spells and gestures are imprinted in his mind.

All that is needed now is to utter the spell, make gestures, remove the camouflage and vigilance of the chamber, and then take the key to open the door.

It's just that in his state at the moment, the lengthy spell has become extremely energy-consuming, especially when cooperating with gestures, which makes Victor feel overdrawn in his life.

The cold, wrapped around him like a snake.

Victor felt his entire body paralyzed.

Especially when the soles of the feet are in contact with the sewage, there is an itchy feeling.

Victor knew he had to speed up.

Otherwise, one of his feet would not have been saved in the sewage.

“zazasi……”

“x.zazasi……”

The last spell was completed, and Victor put it down, raising his arm.

Click!

A sound similar to that of a machine spring.

The flat wall in front of me immediately appeared like a curtain of water.

Then, a ruby appeared in Victor's palm.

He held the ruby in his hand and reached into the curtain of water.

The next moment, the water curtain disappeared.

Only one door remains.

It's normal, like a wooden door in an apartment.

Victor raised his hand to push the door open, but his entire palm fell off just as his palm was about to touch the wooden handle of the apartment door.

The scarlet figure appears at the end of the sewers.

The soul fire in the skeleton's eyes pulsed rapidly, and laughter came from his mouth.

"Victor, my collaborator."

"Do you really think you'll be able to get rid of me?"

"Or are you overestimating your abilities?"

The Scarlet Skull asked slowly.

The pain in his wrist caused Victor to stagger and he had to lean against the wall to keep him from falling to the ground.

"The previous potion?"

Victor asked.

"Hmm."

"The previous potion."

"My potions don't just work on the body, they also have a little effect on the soul."

"It's not too big, but it's big enough to track you."

The Scarlet Skull nodded dryly.

"I didn't do it."

Victor said in a deep voice.

"Now, do you think I'll believe what you say?"

"You bastard who ruined my hundred-year plan!"

"I can't wait to peel you off!"

"Don't worry!"

"I'll do it!"

The Scarlet Skull said as he raised his skeletal hand again and waved it at Victor.

Laugh at!

Victor's other arm fell.

Then there are Victor's legs.

And then there's a certain bulge.

Eventually, Victor became a stick.

Just fell face down and fell into the sewage.

Icy sewage washes over Victor's face and wounds.

The pain and anger had already distorted his handsome face.

And the deeper sense of humiliation made his soul twist.

As a man, when his male symbol is cut off, even if he is not a pervert, there is a high chance that he will become perverted.

Victor wanted to scold the other party, but he didn't open his mouth, he clenched his teeth tightly and closed his eyes, because he knew very well that one of his mouths would only be filled with sewage.

Victor was clear.

Crimson skulls are clearer.

It's intentional.

It wants to give back the humiliation that Victor has given to it, and it will not lose a penny.

Only then will it be able to breathe this way.

Therefore, the current situation is a beginning.

It has more ways to humiliate the other person after that.

Now is not the time!

The most important thing is to get back the wealth of the city!

Stretching out his skeletal claws, he grabbed Victor's collar and lifted him up in front of him.

Then, the Scarlet Skull pushed the door open.

The secret room is not large.

Even, to be precise, very small.

Only about one square.

There is no doubt that this is not so much a secret room as a safe.

However, there is nothing in this safe.

The first to see this was Victor.

He looked at the empty chamber and his eyes widened.

What about the core of the Philosopher's Stone?

Why not?

I put it here!

Just when Victor's heart was shocked and inexplicable, the scarlet skeleton saw everything in front of him clearly, and it stretched out the palm of another skeleton, groping back and forth in this small secret room.

When it was confirmed that there was nothing here, the soul fire in the Scarlet Skull's eyes began to beat rapidly.

It grabbed Victor by the collar, and the head of the skeleton pressed against the other's head, and asked word by word, "Say, where did you hide the treasure around the city?" ”

Hearing the threat of the Crimson Skull, Victor smiled.

The shock has long been hidden by him without a trace.

The rest is ridicule.

He didn't know who was the first to get there, but at least it didn't fall into the hands of the other party.

This is good news for him.

"Do you really think you'll be able to find me?"

"Or ......"

"Am I going to be so easy to show a flaw?"

"And that's just part of my plan!"

"For what?"

"You should have come alone, right?"

"The Three Kings don't know, do they?"

"You said that if the three kings found out that you came alone, would the three kings still believe your little tricks?"

The sarcasm on Victor's face grew stronger, and he used his words to stimulate the scarlet skeleton frantically.

Although he didn't do all this, he wanted the other party to think that he did it, because only in this way could the other party feel frustrated and retaliate against the other party.

Watching the change in the soul fire in the scarlet skull's eye socket, a trace of happiness rose in Victor's heart.

Then......

Something buried in his heart was starting to kick in.

It was his last resort.

Not a hole card.

But it's extremely easy to use.

The next moment, the Scarlet Skull threw Victor out directly.

Bang!

In mid-air, Victor's body exploded directly.

Flesh and blood flew like tons of high explosives.

The entire sewer was blown up, and the road surface became a deep crater, and the police cars on patrol quickly sounded their sirens and drove towards here.

The Scarlet Skull stood in place in resentment.

"I'll find you again!"

With a low roar, it vanished in place.

And deep underground in Lawson's Ranch, Victor, who was the 'bait', opened his eyes.

He was originally a 'bait', but at this time he has become the real him.

Such a reversal hurt his soul again.

Although he did not die, his sanity became chaotic.

Something is beginning to be forgotten.

Including extremely important things.

Even, their own name.

He sat there quietly, looking up at the ceiling, thinking.

Who am I?

Where am I?

What am I going to do?

……

Similarly, Qin Ran, who had taken over the core of the [Philosopher's Stone] from the hands of the high-ranking evil spirits and looked at the introduction of its attributes, was also thinking.

[Name: Philosopher's Stone (Core)]

[Type: Strange Thing]

[Quality: V.]

[Attack: None]

[Defense: V.]

[Attribute: Equivalent Exchange (1/1)]

[Special Effect: None]

[Requirements: None]

[Can I bring out this copy: No]

[Note: This is the pinnacle of ancient alchemy, and although it is not complete, it still possesses amazing power]

……

[Equivalent exchange: what kind of gain can be obtained at a great price. 】

(Note: Equivalence is at the heart of everything, and beyond it will become unpredictable!) ）

……

Qin Ran tapped lightly on the table.

This core ......

It seems promising.
