Chapter 59: Heresy
"Vic, why don't you speak?"
Byrne was a little puzzled, why Helo, who was chatting with him just now, suddenly had no sound.
Helo, who was being pushed, turned his attention away from the module.
"Ah, I'm wondering how many nightmare souls there are in the mine, from its words before, we have encountered at least one, maybe that one has not yet devoured the soul of the sorcerer and mastered the body."
As he hurried, Helo patted the black cloth bag hanging from his waist and said.
Soul-containing items could not be placed in the Flea Skin, so Helo had to find a black cloth and hang the skull's skull around his waist, and then cover it with a tattered apprentice's robe that he had picked up from nowhere.
The mine is not big or small, and in this confined space, two days is enough time for them to meet, whether it is a big demon, a small demon, or an apprentice or a rank magician.
It's just that... According to Nightmare.
It is capable of perceiving its kind, and there is no reason why it cannot be perceived by its kind.
Helo made a simple elimination method in his mind.
Since you can sense each other's breath, you can filter out some of the situations.
Among the demons and sorcerers encountered along the way, no physical coordination or confusion were found.
And in just two days, it is very unlikely that he will find an opportunity to drill into the soul of a rank magician, and digest his knowledge, and master his soul.
At least judging from the nightmare soul in Helo's hand, it is indeed impossible.
You must know that in order to ensure the success of the plan, Helok paid three to four times the soul quality of ordinary apprentices.
In this state of being full of food and drink, to devour a rank magician whose soul is injured, he can almost not suppress it.
As for the other nightmare souls who have no supplies, it is even more impossible, they are facing a magician with a complete soul, not only the soul defense soul technique is perfect, but there may also be soul beasts occupying it, and one or two may not have a chance of winning.
If they want to accumulate strength, they must hunt weaker beings, so it is more likely to take away the apprentice now.
As for the fact that the Nightmare Soul occupies the demonic body, this possibility is also very small.
After all, for them, the ultimate goal is to integrate into the world of magicians, and the demon body is just a temporary puppet, and possessing it is only used as a springboard.
Just like when Helo first met the Nightmare Spirit, he relied on the body of a little demon to seduce an ignorant apprentice to take the bait.
Once they have built up their strength, they will target stronger apprentices or even rank magicians.
Two days have passed, most of the demons have been hunted, and the exit of the mine is about to open, so there is no point in keeping the form of a demon.
"It should be those apprentice sorcerers."
In retrospect, the rank magicians I met along the way had a haughty attitude towards apprentices, and if the nightmare soul possessed was a rank magician, then it should have been justified to come and interact with Helo's nightmare soul.
Only the identity of an apprentice made that nightmare spirit dare not approach him at will.
The further up you go, the fewer the number of bifurcated aisles and the more people converge in the main aisle.
"Hey, can you sense it?"
Helo patted the black bag, but received no response.
It seems that this ghost thing is not lightly angry, and he has not paid attention to people for two days.
"Forget it, what does this have to do with me."
If you can't find the result of the Nightmare, it will only affect the tower, not him.
When the sky falls, there is still a top, and all he is interested in is the talent of the Nightmare Soul [Swallowing the Nightmare].
This kind of knowledge beyond the comprehension of the sorcerer is what he desires.
Because every time he saw the soul beast egg placed at the head of the bed, he would think of the authority of the big octopus... It can make the sorcerer be forbidden in the deep sea, and he can't exert the power of soul magic at all.
Helo wanted to break through the sorcerer system and find another path that was not restricted by any restrictions.
"Report to the mentor when you go back, after all, this kind of thing still needs to be contained."
Out of selfishness, Herlo only intended to tell his mentor the information about the Nightmare and inform him that it might be hiding among the sorcerers who had come out of the mines.
As for the nightmare soul on his body, he wanted to keep it alone.
Merely...
Hlo glanced at Byrne, who was rather tired beside him.
You're the one who knows the secret.
……
【Kania Cave】Underground entrance area.
Dense sorcerers gathered here, waiting for the Chamber of Commerce to open.
There are mostly apprentices here, and their choices are the same as those of Helo.
After two and a half full days of high-load soul energy output, many apprentices can't hold on anymore, and the training effect of this trip has been achieved, and going out half a day earlier has no effect.
"What's that?"
As the worldly gate at the entrance opened, Helo saw the natural sunlight again.
Although the mine is full of miner's lamps, the environment here is no different from that in the Moon Tower.
It's just that when the door of the present world is opened, it doesn't seem that the sorcerers are greeted by the Chamber of Commerce.
"The Sorcerers Order of the Tower of the Mass!"
"The Order?"
Although Byrne is not surprised, he is not very clear, after all, this tower is not very well known to the two of them, and they usually have no chance to learn about it.
It was an apprentice next to them who explained.
"For this kind of otherworldly area, the tower will send a sorcerer order to guard and purify it, so as to prevent the things of the otherworld from causing a large area of soul pollution to the tower."
Helo's first reaction was that the tower was aware of the existence of the Nightmare Spirit.
It's no wonder that Mena mentioned to him that none of the sorcerers who guarded the empire's borders were from the [Mass Tower].
It's not that they're mysterious, it's that the target of the town is the otherworldly region.
If the Crimson Tower is the safe existence of the guardian of the sorcerer's body, then the Mass Tower is the pure land of the sorcerer's soul.
Helo was a little worried, whether his soul would be considered a heretic existence in the other world.
The sorcerer knows the relationship, and this can be regarded as a welfare to ensure the safety of his soul, so naturally there is no objection.
The apprentices present also gladly accepted after being explained by others.
A sorcerer wearing a pure platinum-rimmed mask at the head of the Order performed a soul spell.
A solar disc the size of a human head rises and shines at the entrance.
There is a twisted dividing line in the middle of the body of the solar disk, with a smiling face on the left and a crying face on the right.
On the periphery, there is a circle of rotating gears that resemble a ray of light.
The main body emitted a golden light, and as the magicians below passed, there was no abnormality, and the smiling face on the left half of the solar disk became brighter and brighter.
"This security check is too fast."
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people in front of him, and it would soon be Helo's turn, this made him a little flustered, and even Byrne on the side was a little helpless.
You can't avoid this level.
"Listen, now is not the time to lose your temper, if the skeleton magician's soul is not fully digested, and there are still remnants, you better let him out, if you can't pass the security check, I can only hand you over, you should know the end."
Regardless of whether the soul inside the cloth bag agrees or not, Helo himself exuded a distorted force field and tried to help cover it up.
If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent.
In fact, the idea in his heart was to let the Nightmare Soul help him cover up his soul, and if something was found to be wrong, he could also hand over the Nightmare Soul and let him get rid of suspicion.
He wasn't possessed by the Nightmare Spirit, which was technically even his trophy.
And at this very moment.
The solar disc suspended in mid-air has changed.
The crying face on the right half suddenly came alive, even more than the smiling face.
"Who is it?"
"Someone defiled?"
The area near the entrance and exit instantly turned into a vacuum.
Helo also saw the magician who had been found to be anomalous.
"Golden Rael?"
It was the apprentice of the [Sun Tower] who was extremely arrogant in the square before.
Byrne was also a little shocked, and asked:
"Could it be that he was taken away by the Nightmare? It shouldn't be, his soul strength is very high, and he is still hunting in a team, could it be that the [Mass Tower] is making things difficult for the [Sun Tower]? ”
Byrne has a point.
Helo also saw Rael's teammates dodging to the sidelines, but his expressions didn't seem surprised.
