Chapter 226: The Power of Greed
Passing through the purple tunnel again, Caleb and the three successfully returned to the Corso Wedge.
As soon as he returned to the Corso Wedge, Caleb felt like he had locked on something.
With one hand in his hand, he sucked the soul nail inserted in the sacrificial magic array into his hand.
Grabbing the Soul Spike, Caleb slowly flew up.
"Recycling...."
Dingββ
"Congratulations ....."
Boom!
The sonic boom remained in the air for a long time.
Caleb sped in the direction of the inn.
"Not good!"
The figure hidden in the inn sensed Caleb's approach and hurried to escape.
Unfortunately, the next moment, Caleb's voice came from above his head.
"Yo, it's so hidden, where do you want to go?"
The heavy telekinesis fell instantly, immobilizing the man in place.
Caleb controlled his telekinesis and turned the man around, and said with a look of surprise on his face:
"Boss Loka, I didn't expect you to be a demonic Freemason."
Loka is the owner of the inn where Caleb lives.
In appearance, he is a very ordinary middle-aged uncle, and Caleb has also checked him before.
However, no anomalies were found.
I don't know how he escaped the detection of divine power.
"I, I.... I don't know what you're talking about, Lord Divine Messenger.
It's not normal for me to be in the hotel....."
Loka smiled reluctantly, his eyes looking left and right, not daring to look directly at Caleb.
"There's still a lot of work to be done in the hotel, can the gods let me go first?"
Caleb smiled indifferently, and then spoke:
"Since Boss Loka doesn't want to say it, forget it, I don't want to trouble you."
Caleb landed in front of Loka and held out his hand to him.
"You... What are you doing! β
Loka looked at Caleb's outstretched hand with horror on his face, his body struggling violently.
"If you don't want to say it, then let me see for myself."
Caleb's hand pierced into Loka's body as if it were passing through the water.
"Ahhh
Loka seemed to be in great pain, her eyes widened with a look of horror.
"Ah, sorry, I wasn't very skilled the first time."
Caleb was indifferent to Loka's painful wails.
He still has the leisure to talk to Loka.
"Don't worry, if I do catch it wrong.
I still have a little relationship with the underworld, so it's not impossible to reincarnate you directly. β
Caleb's hand pulled suddenly, and a slightly gray transparent soul was pulled out by him.
Loka's soul seemed to be screaming, trying to escape from Caleb's grasp.
But it's as if there's a transparent barrier around it.
No matter how hard he slammed into Caleb's hands, he couldn't escape Caleb's hands.
Eventually, Loka's soul was crushed into a gray ball by Caleb.
"Huh?"
Caleb's eyes suddenly froze, and he saw that there seemed to be a thin thread on the soul ball.
The thin line stretched into the void, and I don't know where it leads.
Before, Loka's soul had been stirring, and Caleb hadn't noticed.
Boom!
As if he found himself exposed, the thin line was decisively broken.
"Hmph, I want to run!"
Caleb's eyes widened, and his divine power suddenly struck towards the thin line of escaped void.
"Ahh
A scream faintly came from the void, but it didn't stop the other party's escape.
The telekinesis instantly covered a radius of more than ten kilometers, and all the insects lurking in the city moved.
Three minutes passed.....
There is no movement, after all, the other party has lost its trace.
β...... Hum! β
Caleb snorted unwillingly, but there was no way.
At this time, An Jie's words came from his soul.
"My lord, I only feel a very small part of the demonic power here."
"Can we separate?"
"No, this part is part of this soul in itself.
Forced separation can only be cut, but it is estimated that it will not live long, unless ....."
Anjie didn't finish her words, but Caleb knew what she meant.
Unless the soul is strong enough to cut off An Jie like the previous 'An Jie'.
Caleb's eyes narrowed, and he said with an ugly face:
"Divide the soul, take the ..... It's a disgusting ability. β
Through the examination of this soul, coupled with Caleb's initial knowledge of the power of greed.
The power of the sin of greed, Caleb has figured out.
The power that greed is given should be the ability to seize.
It is not a seizure but a seizure, and the seizure is only at the level of the physical soul.
And the capture is much more terrifying, in a sense it is a super difficult ability to deal with.
The range of capture can be anything of the target.
This includes, but is not limited to, personality, appearance, memories, physical bodies, and even higher beings.
Relationships, luck, conceptual existence, and so on.
It is not yet known what the other party will be able to do.
But judging by the capabilities that have been shown so far.
Greed already has many abilities such as immortality, clone, espionage, assassination, etc.
Suddenly, Caleb felt a powerful soul trying to touch the soul ball in his hand.
Caleb's eyes narrowed, and a sneer appeared on his face.
In an instant, countless mist imprints were imprinted on the soul ball by Caleb.
Immediately blocked the soul connection out.
"Hehe, the contact of the demons? Don't! β
Although he has just been successfully escaped by greed.
But this soul orb is still part of greed.
As long as the soul orb is still in Caleb's hands.
Greed is equivalent to directly disconnecting from the demon world.
"This should be able to drag on for a while, and the system will limit the power of the seven sins."
Dingββ
"Request for record, the power of the seven sins will be limited to 0.1%"
Caleb nodded, handing the soul ball in his hand to An Jie, who had withdrawn from the soul resonance.
"Power is really poison, addictive."
Caleb clenched his fists and sighed.
Suddenly lose the blessing of the attributes and power that skyrocketed before.
Caleb always felt empty in his heart.
A phantom figure came out of the dark corner and fell respectfully to its knees.
"Lord Caleb, Lord General, please."
"Oh! It's been a long wait, it's been a long time. β
Caleb turned around with a smile without the slightest surprise on his face.
The man had been around since the moment, but he didn't mess with Caleb and didn't care about him.
He looked at the soldier with his head bowed deeply, as if his body was still trembling slightly.
"You should be a scout thief in the army.
You tell Leon, I'll go to him when I'm done dealing with it. β
"Yes!"
The soldier hurried and quickly disappeared in place.
"Huh..... Am I scary? β
Caleb scratched his hair and asked himself in confusion.
Click-
The sound of pottery falling came from behind him, and Caleb turned his head.
I saw an obese woman standing in the doorway in horror, with broken cutlery and food at her feet.
"Lo... Loka! β
The woman staggered over and knelt beside Loka trembling to check on his condition.
β.......οΌοΌοΌβ
The fact that Loka was dead made the woman tremble wordlessly and lay on top of Loka.
"Your Excellency.... What's going on! β
Her tone was angry and slightly fearful, and she questioned Caleb.
Faced with the woman's questioning, Caleb said indifferently and compassionately:
"I'm sorry for what happened to you, Loka is a good boss.
But please be able to mourn and be obedient, your husband has been invaded by demons.
This demonic invasion was orchestrated by the demons inside your husband.
In order to prevent him from endangering more people, I can only do this, and I ask for your understanding. β
Caleb took off his hood and bowed slightly to the woman in apology.
He took out a bag containing 1,000 gold coins, placed it in front of the woman, and said:
"If you still don't believe me, I can swear to the true God.
I swear to the God of Truth that what I say is completely true.
If there is a single lie, I am willing to be punished by divine fire. β
The silver-white eye appeared in the air, and a golden light shone on Caleb.
Caleb could feel the eyes in the air with a deep curiosity about him.
They looked Caleb up and down, and finally dissipated into the air.
Caleb's actions also made the women directly stunned in place.
The lack of reaction from the Divine Eye shows that Caleb's words are not lying.
Her husband was really taken over by demons.
"Oh..... Poor Loka, woo woo woo ...."
The woman clung to Loka's body and wept sadly.
Caleb bowed to the woman and silently walked out of the door.
Betty and Ena were leaning against the wall outside the room, waiting.
As soon as they saw Caleb coming out, they approached.
Betty approached Caleb's clothes and comforted him:
"It's not your fault, don't take it personally."
"yes, it's all the bad guys' fault."
Ena hugged Caleb's arm and said indignantly.
Caleb smiled softly and grabbed the two of them by the waist and walked outside.
"I'm not one of those fragile people, and innocent people will inevitably die to destroy the enemy.
At most, I will reduce the number of such innocents as much as possible. β
Ena looked at the approaching door of the hotel and asked suspiciously:
"Aren't we going back to our room?"
Caleb shook his head and walked out of the hotel with the two of them.
"Find a new hotel, I don't think the proprietress wants to see me as a murderer again."
Caleb looked up at the setting sun in the sky.
"Hurry up, or you won't be able to make it to dinner."
Ah, yes! I'm going to Leon. β
.................
Caleb came out of the barracks with a satisfied smile on his face.
He really deserves to be a great nobleman and a general, and he really has money in his hands.
18 gold coins of the god generation
Mall points +1.8 billion
Caleb suddenly felt that the money was not so hard to earn.
Now it's one step closer to the floating city he wanted to buy before.
Caleb put on a magic spell to cover his breath.
Along the way, he heard a lot of people talking about him.
Of course, it's not a murderous thing.
Soon after Caleb left the hotel, a large number of soldiers came and took Loka's body.
Later, the army also released the fact that Loka was occupied by demons.
Presumably, the scout soldier reported the incident to Leon.
The incident did not cause any commotion, and it subsided quietly.
While Caleb was thinking, the new inn was getting closer.
He stepped past the crowd into the hotel and opened the room that temporarily belonged to the trio.
"You're back, take a shower or eat first?"
Betty, who had just come out of the bathroom, asked as she wiped her hair.
"Where's Ena?"
Caleb took off his cloak and hung it on a hanger beside him.
"After eating and washing, I have fallen asleep."
Betty finished wiping her hair, put the towel down, and shook her hair.
"Then I'll go take a shower first, please call me dinner."
"Well, you go take a shower first."
Betty watched Caleb enter the bathroom, a chuckle curling into her lips.
"Snow."
"Yes, Miss Betty."
Snow appeared on the side.
"Go help Caleb with that dinner, by the way, be slow."
"Yes~"
Bai Xue covered her mouth and ran out incognito with a grin.
Betty's face turned red as she listened to the sound of water in the bathroom.
She looked towards Ena's room and walked gently towards the bathroom.
The garment slipped off the satin-smooth skin........
