Chapter 252: The Fall of the Flame Soul (I)

The battle is finally over.

The soul spike was blocked by Li Ang, and its power was weakened by at least half, and Sophia's own willpower was not low, so it did not cause much substantial damage, which was the final conclusion of the alchemy master, and the priest girl was still a little weak and was resting in Irene's traveler's hut.

The others were cleaning the battlefield, but there was nothing to clean, and most of the undead creatures were armed with their teeth and claws, and the only ones that could really be of some use were the huge sword in Doom's hand and the brass helmet on his head that were eventually killed by Red and Leon.

Kaka stood in front of the ruins, not knowing what he was thinking, when the apprentice's voice came from behind him.

"Mentor, is Sophia really okay?"

"What do you think I can do to answer you?" said Kaka with his hands behind his back.

"What?" the apprentice began to nervous.

"Her body is really fine, it looks like her spirit has just been shocked," the alchemy master glanced back and found that all the people were busy, he thought for a while and said: "But the power of this secret method is not low, although you have weakened some of the power, but for Sophia, who only has first-order strength...... I think it's strange that there's nothing like this. ”

Leon didn't interject, just listened quietly.

"I would be understandable if she woke up after a few days of being unconscious, but she woke up on her own in just a few minutes...... This doesn't make sense. ”

"I always feel that this little girl's physique is a little unusual," Kaka pinched his chin, his expression was very puzzled, "This may be the reason why she has been at the peak of the first order, but she has not been able to be promoted?"

Li Ang was silent for a while, and slowly said something to his mentor that his memory was still profound.

After getting to know Caterina and Sofia for the first time, the three of them went through the battle to defend Locketown, which culminated in the emergence of a powerful vampire, Leonardo Federin, who had shown unusual interest when he saw Sophia, and spoke in a tone that seemed to be a mixture of surprise, excitement, and anticipation.

At that time, Leon had joined a brutal battle when he first arrived, and he had met enemies that he had never imagined in his previous life, so until now, the battle of Locketown and everyone who appeared in the battle was deeply impressed in his mind, and the appearance of the vampire and his words were even more so.

However, Leon experienced more and more, and the memory that had been haunting Locketown slowly faded, until this time Kaka suddenly became clear again after he brought it up.

"So......" Kaka hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "Very strange indeed. ”

He raised his eyes and added, "No, I'm not talking about her person, but about her background, or where she came from." ”

Li Ang understood the meaning of his mentor's words, and he smiled, "I don't care about Sophia's identity and origin, and I don't care about her strength, as long as her body is fine, everything else doesn't matter to me." ”

"I like your attitude," Kaka grinned, "quite in line with Lao Tzu's usual style." ”

Li Ang let out a sigh of relief and asked instead, "What to do with that person?"

The mysterious man was tied like a stick, especially his mouth was tightly gagged, his hands were tied straight, and all the magic items on his body had been taken off by Leon, and he couldn't release spells at all.

"What do you want to do with it?" Kaka asked rhetorically.

"Can you be like Zhuo Ning and bring him under control first?" said Li Ang in thought, "I feel that there are too many secrets hidden in him. ”

"Boy, I know you're curious, but there are some things that don't qualify as curiosity at all with your current abilities!" Kaka's voice began to become stern, "Don't think that you have suddenly been promoted to the third order, and you can do whatever you want with a few good things!"

"And this person is too dangerous, the organization behind him is too huge, you still want to bring him back alive?" the mentor's expression became rather disdainful, "Save it! If someone finds out, it will be a doom!"

"Okay, okay...... apprentice's expression was helpless, "I'll just say it, you won't react so violently." ”

"Hmph!" Kaka snorted coldly, "I'm worried that you've grown up too easily, forgetting your own abilities, and delusionally thinking about being small and big every day!"

"How can it!" Li Ang looked sad and indignant, "Besides, with a glorious, great, and correct mentor like you by my side, how could I do such an unwitted thing!"

Even the master alchemist didn't seem to be able to bear the obvious and exaggerated sycophants of his apprentice, so he left under the pretext of going to explore the ruins first, and disappeared into the thick darkness.

Leon stood there stunned for a while, and then began to walk back, and he circled around the temporary station for a quick time before he found the man who was sitting at the end of the light.

"Red," Leon said, standing beside him, "why did you get here?"

The leader of the Flame Soul obviously didn't notice anyone coming, he panicked for a moment, and immediately said, "No, it's okay, I'm too hot, sit here and breathe!" and then wiped his hand his face, as if to prove what he said.

"Okay......" Leon sat down next to Red, "it's all the same here, and it's breathable, don't pretend to be in front of me, tell me what the hell is going on." ”

Red's movements froze, and his large hand that was rubbing wildly on his face fell, and then his head drooped little by little, and finally buried himself in the middle of his knees, letting out a muffled, muffled cry.

Li Ang was silent, just sat on the side and waited.

After a while, Red looked up, wiped his sleeve on his face again, and stared blankly at the darkness in front of him.

"My companions are all dead...... It was in this underground cavern that I brought them in, but I couldn't get them out. ”

"For so many years, the soul of the flame grew in the hands of my stepfather, but it died in my hands, even if I die, why let them die in front of me one by one, but I survived!"

Red's large hand clenched, and the crunch of the knuckles could be heard far away in the darkness.

"What the hell is going on this time?" asked Leon.

“...... Those vile crumbs!" Red thumped the ground, squeezing the sentence out between his teeth.

The journey of the Flame Soul from accepting a special mission to entering the underground passage is the same as Dick said, but what happens next is different.

They were attacked twice by a large number of undead creatures, killing and missing more than four people, and then lost their way through the intricate passages underground. However, there were seven or eight "old men" in the group who had followed them from the time of Arin to the time of Red, and with their experience and experience, they finally found a way to extend into the depths of the cave after a day.

Like the path that Leon had discovered, it was full of traps and traps, and with the joint efforts of several Assassin professionals, they approached their destination step by step, but until this time they did not realize the inappropriateness of their trip, and still thought that the large-scale attack was due to the fact that the underground space where the ruins were located had become a nest of undead creatures.

It was at this time that they encountered a strange creature that was suspended on the ground and its arms turned into jagged weapons.

"Phantom Killer?" Hearing this, Li Ang had doubts in his heart, but he did not interrupt the other party's words, but continued to listen quietly.

As soon as this creature appeared, he killed the two members standing on the periphery, the elder brother of the twin assassins and the third-order assassin of the team, and when he found out that the younger brother had been killed by this sudden enemy, he immediately turned red in the eyes and launched a fierce and powerful attack on him regardless of the situation. However, the enemy's strength is very terrifying, and the state of the virtual body can dodge a qiē attack, and soon two more besieging members died under the sharp saw blade, but they also found some patterns, relying on the entanglement of Red and the assassin, the assistance of the mages, and the harassment of the long-range attackers, almost a little bit of this terrible creature was consumed to the body.

However, the enemy directly killed the assassin in the last outbreak, causing the mercenary group, which had already lost its troops, to suffer another heavy blow.

Leon recalled the five corpses he had encountered as he approached the center of the underground cavern along the pathway, and immediately understood that the battle had taken place there. Moreover, the Phantom Slayer will turn into nothingness once it dies, so its corpse will not be seen at all. But...... Wasn't this demonic creature born from the magic of the ruins, and couldn't be separated from the scope of the ruins?

With this doubt, Leon heard what happened to the Flame Soul again.

When Red led the rest of the men into the heart of the underground cavern, the last enemy appeared. To everyone's surprise, it wasn't an undead creature, but another mercenary group coming down from another direction!
