"Why is their resistance so negative?"

Inside Behrens, seeing that the center of the city was approaching, Don felt a trick: "What's wrong with Prince Grove? Is he an idiot? What the hell is he doing, why didn't he come forward from beginning to end, could it be that his Sunian navy couldn't come, so he gave up?"

Is it not to resist, or is there something dangerous hidden and you don't feel the need to resist at all?

After hesitating for a moment, he took the plunge and opened up his mind br/>

"Trainor, I'm going to attack the administrative office area in the city center now, I suspect Prince Grove has something wrong with his brain, if not, he might have a Level 0 seal......

"If I can't beat me, remember to get me!"

！」

……

"You got the Sun God Bird and the Divine Radiance Stone? Thank you very much, please pass it on to Your Excellency the Dark Sage, and I will pick it up myself."

Ms. D, who was still in the southern continent waiting for news from Crane, finally received the letter brought by Renette Tinicol, and after seeing the contents of the letter, she was very happy to read the letter back and forth twice, and while praising Mr. X's connections and abilities in her heart, she made it to her desk and prepared to write a reply.

She already knew that this powerful messenger of Mr. X needed gold coins to be willing to deliver the letter, so in order to save time, she generally did not summon it, but directly gave Renette Tinnicol ten more gold coins, and told the other party to wait for her to reply to the letter and leave.

"Messenger, it's really very convenient......

When writing the letter, Ms. D couldn't help but fantasize that she also had such an assistant, but her family resources were completely tilted towards her two older brothers, neither of whom had their own messengers, and it was even more impossible for her to be the third daughter.

"Alas, if I donate some more money when I go back, none of the high-level powerhouses I am familiar with seem to be the type who are good at traveling through the spirit world, and it is too dangerous for me to rely on the "door" to roam the spirit world alone...... I don't know when the Rose School will have a similar business......

Ms. D shook her head and wrote intently in reply:

"I need to thank you again. And, I'll make up the difference...... Your request is "a way to temporarily regain your strength", and I can give you two charms to borrow power from your past self......

「…… If you don't have any other requests, please write back to me, and I'll deposit both charms with the Dark Sage once I receive the reply. They will deplete spirituality within a year, there are no sequelae, please feel free to use them. ——D」

She handed the eleventh gold coin to Renette Tinicol along with the letter, and watched as the other party bit the reward and the envelope and entered the spirit realm.

"Whew—"

"Next, it's time to prepare for the promotion ceremony...... I still need to do a few more things to redeem the promotion ceremony......

She let out a long sigh of relief and leaned happily back in her soft chair.

……

Crane's spiritual walk was relatively smooth, and he didn't encounter any danger along the way.

There was a mist flowing at the coordinates that could not see any problems, but after entering a thin mist, Huo Ran suddenly widened his vision with the help of the secret puppet, reflecting a magnificent city that can only appear in myths and legends.

This city is different from normal, it does not develop to a high place, but extends to the end of the deep pit in the ground again and again, and the whole gives people the feeling of an upside-down mausoleum.

The buildings inside it are of various styles, but all of them are just as bizarre, some of them are tall pale stone columns, the top is polished out of a huge single house, some are long and rectangular, the door is open on the roof, there is no window, some are built underground, there is a tombstone at the entrance, and some are made of white bones, messy and fragmented.

And the closer you get to the end of the pit, the better the building is preserved, and the closer you get to the top, the more it collapses, full of the decay and dilapidation brought by time.

Crane made the "winner" puppet stop and stand on the edge of the city, looking down at everything.

As "Red Light" said, although the city of Calderón is very dilapidated, but at this moment

There are countless spiritual creatures of all shapes and sizes who are repairing broken stone bricks or building shelters for themselves, and there are also spiritual creatures settling or wandering back on the periphery of the city, which looks very lively.

Finding a safe place, the secret puppet recited his honorific name, and prayed that Crane, who was wearing papal robes and a triple crown and floating with the "Poseidon Scepter" floating beside him, appeared outside Calderón.

Intrigued by this novelty, Crane stopped to look at it for a moment, then tried to look deeper into the city, but could not see what the building at the bottom looked like, which was shrouded in deep darkness and seemed to have not been lit for thousands of years.

"The spiritual power here is extremely active, if the extraordinary person of the 'Death' and 'Sleepless' paths enters here, they should be able to get a great boost, but it is also possible to be assimilated by this area and become a subject of the Grim Reaper......

Crane surveyed the city for a moment, then began to search for the location of the Spirit Marauders.

According to the information of "Red Light", low-level spirit creatures gather on the periphery, and the further in, the stronger they become, and the "Spirit Marauders" corresponding to the Sequence 4 material are not too high-level, but they should also be slightly closer to the center of Calderon.

Crane looked at the "Poseidon Scepter" beside him, and the negative effects of the "Tyrant" card and the scepter made him feel the urge to rush in directly with a mass destruction spell in the first place. After thinking about it for a while, I gave up on the idea of forcing a path with negative effects or "lightning storms". Both of these lethal skills are too uncontrollable, not to mention that Calderon now has a master.

Let's dive in, just like in Behrens.

Crane looked at himself and felt that the spirit that contained the "Tyrant" card also seemed to blend seamlessly into the spirit creatures, but it was a little eye-catching.

He used the "Azk Bronze Whistle" brought by a slight touch of spirituality to release some breath of the "Grim Reaper" path, so that he could be closer to the spirit creatures or dead spirits in spiritual perception as much as possible. Then, Crane floated diagonally forward, blending into the shadows of the collapsed building, stealthily following behind the "winner" puppet, passing through the spiritual creatures of *** shape, and heading into the depths of Calderón layer by layer.

The spirit creatures on the road were shocked by the breath of the "Azk Copper Whistle", and involuntarily avoided Crane's trajectory, and the timid even directly gave way to Crane, allowing him to cross the outer layer of the middle and low sequence spirit creatures without hindrance.

Crane breathed a sigh of relief, then his expression became serious.

After starting to approach the core area, the spirit creatures here are relatively powerful, almost demigods, and will no longer be deterred by the "Azk Copper Whistle", and will even be attracted to attack him and seize the Bronze Whistle.

Therefore, when the first spirit creature appeared in his field of vision that did not give way, but stared straight at him, Crane did not hesitate to stop sending spirit into the copper whistle, allowing the copper whistle's aura to slowly disappear, leaving only the deterrence of the "Tyrant Card" and the "Poseidon Scepter".

He stared warily at the humanoid creature, and when he saw that the other party only looked at him for a moment before turning away, he relieved himself to confirm that it was not a distractant of the Spirit Marauder.

He was just about to let the secret couple observe further, but his body suddenly became paralyzed, and his thoughts slowed down.

He had this feeling before, and he was in a similar state when he was affected by the seal "2-049" in Tingen City!

In the past, Crane didn't know the essence, but after becoming a "secret puppet master", he realized that it meant that his "spirit thread" was controlled by the seal!

In other words, he is now in the possession of the "spirit thread"!

Moreover, unlike in the past, not only did the joints of his body "rust", as if he had been filled with glue, but also had a strong feeling of being paralyzed by thunder, making it even more difficult to do the movements.

Not good...... It's a spirit marauder...... On the way here...... It's too smooth...... I...... Careless...... And the secret puppet's ...... Exist...... Make me ...... Some...... Neglect...... Own ...... Safety...... Thoughts popped up uncontrollably in Crane's mind, interfering with his normal thoughts of helping himself.

At this moment, the humanoid spirit creature that looked like a slender ghost came towards him crookedly, and its arms were ridiculously straight

Wrapping around the puppet's neck, as if to separate his head and make him unusable.

In the surrounding places, which were unusually quiet, one after another strangely shaped creatures poured out from the pale stone pillars, from the broken houses, from the tombstone tombs.

Some of them only exist in the upper body, some are so transparent that they are almost invisible, some are stretched and soft like noodles, some have cracked their chests and abdomen and are bloody with internal organs, some have dark green faces like evil spirits, some have eyes in every part of their bodies, and some seem to live in the air.

Countless eyes were cast at Crane from different places, emotionless, indifferent.

At this moment, Crane's mouth opened with difficulty, and he slowly spat out a word dryly:

"Singing ......"

Before he could finish speaking, the cane of "Word of the Sea", which had just tripped over "Winner" and allowed him to avoid the attack, spat out blisters in excitement:

"Impulse! Impulse! Impulse!"

The spirit creatures around him were suddenly devastated, and Kryan was also severely damaged, but his thoughts suddenly recovered, and he was no longer sluggish for a moment.

However, his body is still "rusty" and full of *** feeling.

Then, wearing a triple crown, his head was hot, and he directly raised the "Seagod Scepter".

The blue-blue gems lit up one after another, and one after another sparkling silver-white lightning fell in the air. These lightning bolts unleashed "branches", enveloping the outer area of Calderon in the surrounding hundreds of meters in the "Thunder Forest", and the aura of destruction and the feeling of destruction were like substance!

The strange creatures that rushed out from all over the place shattered, evaporated, and completely disappeared in such a silvery white.

The tyrannical electric snakes twisted, entangled, and descended again, like huge waves, one after another.

After releasing two "lightning storms" in a row, Crane was tired and calmed down.

He suddenly chuckled in his heart, and remembered something:

Lightning Storm is an area attack, and it is swaggering enough to undoubtedly cause a great deal of danger in Calderón, where spirit creatures and undead are gathered, and it seems that running away is a better option than continuing to search for the "Spirit Marauder" now!

The lightning storm had wiped out everything around it, and the spirit creatures in the distance hadn't wandered over to fill the void yet. But just as Crane was about to end his summoning and abscond, suddenly, a figure emerged from a pile of rubble more than a hundred meters to Crane's side.

It is a translucent white robe, without a head, hands or feet, and appears to be held up by an invisible person.

At this time, its appearance was tattered, full of cracks and black marks, and it looked quite embarrassed.

Crane was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood:

"Really, before I came in, I should have thought about the law of extraordinary property aggregation...... After taking the "Poseidon Scepter", even with the "Tyrant" card suppression, I was still a little reckless and left out such an important detail......

Swish! The body of the "Spirit Marauder" suddenly ignited with pale flames, and in the blink of an eye, he jumped away with flames that were many times stronger than Crane, but Crane, who had already realized the extraordinary convergence, was not in a hurry, and took out the "Azk's Bronze Whistle" from his arms and let it exude spirituality, only to see that the "Spirit Marauder" in the distance who seemed to be in a panic to escape suddenly stopped the car, and then jumped back in front of Crane in a row.

Crane held up the "Azik's Bronze Whistle" and stared at the "Spirit Marauders" who were rushing in, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

When the other party approached, he reluctantly jumped to the side, and then smashed the "Poseidon Scepter" floating beside him hard!

The Spirit Marauder couldn't dodge and was touched by the Poseidon Scepter.

In an instant, its form quickly began to blacken and dissolve from the edges, and it still maintained the posture of wanting to seize the copper whistle.

Is this negative effect so terrible? It's a lot stronger than itself! Crane was startled, at this rate, it would only take half a minute for the "Spirit Marauder" in front of him to cease to exist, and he immediately took this opportunity to control the other party's spirit

The "Spirit Marauder" who reacted was dodged in a hurry, but it had been initially controlled by Crane and fell to death in an instant.

Then, lightning exploded, shattering the white-robed creature to pieces.

Hunting success.

At this moment, Calderon suddenly fell silent, and all the spirit creatures seemed to fall silent at the same time, and the entire city fell into a dead silence in an instant as if it were dead.

Crane's cold hairs stood up all at once, and the strange silence of the moment where he had littered the lightning storm had made him think of the worst at once. But he couldn't leave, so he waited anxiously for the characteristics of the "Spirit Marauder" to be revealed.

This made him lose the joy of successful hunting for the time being, only the tension of hovering back at the edge of the abyss.

In an instant, Crane seemed to be fixed by an invisible sight, and the high position of the "Tyrant Card" offset part of the deterrence, so that he would not fall. But if it was in the real world, he might have been unable to stand and be delirious.

A vague footstep appeared slowly, as if coming from the deepest part of the world, echoing through Calderón.

Dark Depths......

Crane's scalp was numb, and he couldn't even think about it, and once the footsteps sounded, he felt that his vitality seemed to be weakened a little, as if he was striding on the road of life, approaching death at an unimaginable speed!

No, no—

It should be said that death is gradually approaching him.

The spiritual material in front of him finally appeared, and Crane almost didn't think about it, and threw the copper whistle in his hand to his feet.

The black-cracked brass whistle slammed down on the masonry, and after a clink, the city of Calderón fell silent again.

The footsteps stopped for a moment.

In an instant, Crane felt that his gaze had shifted, and he ended the ritual without thinking, and disappeared from Calderon City in an instant, with spiritual materials and secret puppets!

The moment he left the spirit realm, he saw a hand reach out and pick up the copper whistle.

The owner of this hand is a tall woman with bronzed skin and brown hair, with an expressionless face and divine indifference.

In her eyes, it was as if a pale flame was burning.

"Death!"

The next moment, he landed in the place of the "Fool" on the source castle, threw everything on his body into the debris pile, and stayed for a while before returning to the real world. Back in the room, he was still so preoccupied that he couldn't help but gasp for breath.

"It's too dangerous, it's too dangerous...... the symbol of 'death' is near, and my life is passing fast......

「…… Did Mr. Azik tell me to bring a brass whistle because he knows that death is there? The last time the Grim Reaper came to Calderón and didn't leave? And the "Seven Lights" can't enter or spy there, so they feel that Calderon's spirit creatures have returned to normal, which is a sign of the departure of the Grim Reaper? Whew, it's so thrilling, I'm almost going to be there forever as an undead...... I don't know if I can be resurrected......

Crane was so tired that he didn't have the strength to call the secret puppet to pinch his shoulders and beat his legs, and he lay on the bed in the hotel for half an hour before he cheered up and asked the secret puppet to fetch him a cup of hot water and drink it slowly.

The heat passed through the cup to the palm of his hand, and Crane felt the cold seeping into his bones being expelled little by little.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the dressing mirror in the corner, and was horrified to find that his sideburns were really a little more white.

At this time, Renette Tinicol arrives in front of Crane with a letter.

Crane paid attention to the other party's actions, and seeing that Miss Messenger did not stop, he immediately turned back to the spirit world, knowing that Ms. D must have paid for delivering the letter.

"I've been really busy lately, trading with Ms. D, trading with the Hermit, and supporting Leonard in their search for Ince Zangwill......" Crane pressed his eyebrows, opened the letter, and furrowed his brow. He was just about to write a reply when he remembered that Arodus had already told him that Will Ensettein had been born, and that perhaps he should call her Will Kreese now.

Crane smiled, let

The mood becomes relaxed.

"Two spells should work, right? …… Let's go to Yuanbao first to do a dream divination and ask her if she can ...... If she accepts, I'll make the deal right away with what both sides need. Hehe, pass on the two materials for promotion to demigods, and as my sequence improves, the sequence of the Tarot Society and the people around me gradually improves."

"Then go back to Fort ...... Source first."

Crane muttered, and was about to take four steps backwards, when he felt his spirit touched again, only to see Renette Tinicol go and return, biting another letter in her mouth.

"Again? Whose is it?"

He was surprised to take the letter, and found that it was Leonard's, and the messenger turned to leave again out of the corner of his eye.

"Didn't you just communicate, and what new clues have been discovered by the Night Church?"

Crane curiously opened the letter and read it.

"After investigating the specific file of the demon wounding incident in Port Enmat, it was found that there were many coincidences, and through other means, it has now been basically determined that Ince Zangwill is in Port Enmat......

"Crane, I've seen here the guy who appeared when the true Creator's Son descended from God, she's a demon, I can't tell you her name and characteristics, she also appeared in Nmatt Harbor, you must be careful......

Edward Vaughn!

Crane's hole shrank.

Leonard meets Edward Vaughn!

Why didn't he die? Because Pales Zoroaster doesn't want to change parasites yet?

If Edward Vaughn was also there, it would bring many variables to the plan to kill Ince Zangwill!

"Can't tell me your traits and name? Why is that...... Is it because of the demon's malicious perception? But demons can feel pure hostility, right?" Crane guessed, his expression growing heavier, and he immediately stood up and took four steps backwards towards Fort Source.

As soon as he sat down in the position of the "Fool", Crane reached out and made a move to make the citrine pendulum fly over, but in the next second, he put down the pendulum again, breathed hard and exhaled vigorously to calm his mood.

"No, this matter involves a level 0 seal, and there is an angel in Sequence 1, my divination will either be invalid, or it will only give me a hint that this Sequence 5 is in great danger, there is no need for divination at all, I am too nervous."

He closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, his breathing gradually smoothing.

Ince Zangwill is too early for him at the moment!

He still had almost two months left to digest the Secret Master potion. By then, he would have already gathered the materials and be able to direct a murder of Ince Zangwill, a demigod, with the theme of revenge, and put the sequence promotion and his wish together, and no longer need to think about retreat. However, Ince Zangwill will not "appear" until he is all ready, and will not follow his predetermined procedures.

And, if Edward Vaughn was really there, Crane feared that Ince Zangwill had died inexplicably before he and Leonard could take revenge, because of a casual wave of the demon's hand or a ridiculous reason, not a bad thing he had done.

After a short silence, Crane had already made up his mind, that is, not to forcibly bind the two things together, and from now on, on the premise of a success rate, to pay homage to Ince. Zangwill's revenge is dominant.

He didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Although it had only been about 10 months, less than a year, since what had happened at the Black Thorn Security Company in Tingen, Crane felt that a long, long time had passed, and that he was not willing to wait any longer.

He immediately returned to Fort Source, communicated with Will through dream divination, and after confirming the content of the transaction, he immediately packed his things and prepared to go directly to Beckland through teleportation.

Retrieve the main ingredients for the two potions from the Dark Sage, then leave Beckland and walk towards the port of Emmat.

He couldn't leave Leonard alone to face that terrifying demon and Ince Zangwill, who had become even more dangerous!

……

After a night of going back and forth, when he arrived at the port of Enmat, Crane looked up and saw Qing

Morning sun.

Today is June 29th.

Uh-huh. Six thousand words.

I feel like if I want to take a break at the end of the month, I will have to do it again......
