Chapter 286 Goodbye, Ales

Chapter 286 Goodbye, Alais...

"Nico, Luke."

Wei En flashed away, and the sixteen phantom clones dispersed, trying to cast charm spells.

But, the next second!

All the phantom clones were instantly shattered by Alais.

Wei En came to a slowly sinking three-masted sailboat on the edge of the port. He stood tall and tall on the top of the mast and calmly stared at the figure like black lightning.

"It's useless, Director Alais. I am no longer the investigator who first joined the Secret Investigation Department."

"Yeah?"

Alais's speed did not slow down at all, and after swiping past and shattering the phantom clone, he came to Wei En's side in an instant.

"Arrow of Disaster!"

boom!

Black lightning struck the three-masted sailing ship, and the entire hull was reduced to black powder under the erosion of the source of the disaster.

Wei En flickered away again and appeared in mid-air, his red eyes flickering slightly as he glanced at the panel attributes in his mind.

Toughness level: 22348

Spirit level: 22348

Origin: 1523 (1524) (Seal 1 point of origin)

Survival points: 137340

The thousands of abyss monsters he had just killed and devoured had given him a considerable improvement, especially the reward for killing a great demon.

Wei En secretly thought: If you want to improve your strength as quickly as possible, you still have to fight often...

No,

It’s about killing!

Only by killing more people will his power grow rapidly!

Thinking like this, Wei En looked at the approaching figure and snapped his fingers.

The four original sub-bodies, except the driver, each cast spells and shot towards Alais.

"Bray, Franco, Ava!"

"Dipper, Rocko, door!"

"Giya, Lir, Jins."

"..."

For a time, elements such as lightning, frost, and flames shone one after another.

As the gray mist rose up, a huge crystal white bone palm descended from the sky and struck Alais.

"Such a spell has no effect on me!"

Alais dodged the spell attacks, even the bone palm, he dodged like lightning.

"Little guy, is the enemy this time... a disaster?"

Within the rune circle, the voice of the King of Bones came out gloomily.

As he spoke, the five fingers of the falling bone palm spread out and bent instantly, blocking the path that Alais must pass.

boom!

"This is……"

Alais twisted around subconsciously, and then retreated!

"yes."

Wei En stared closely at Alais' figure and replied calmly: "This time it's a disaster!"

"Hoho, good original power, but it's a pity..."

Before the King of Bones could finish saying what was a pity, he disappeared into the rune circle due to the timing of the spell.

Alais frowned and looked at Wei En with a gloomy face.

what is that? A legendary creature from the world of the undead?

The moment he hit, his original strength was almost destroyed by the bone palm.

It must be an undead creature with a very high extraordinary level!

Wei En...why does he always have some spells with very unique effects...

It seems that he can't go on like this. Once he can't take him down, when the battle on Asmir's side is over, he will die in his hands.

Thinking of this, Alais took out a statue that was as tall as him.

"Um?"

Wei En frowned slightly, is he the one from Custer City State?

[You witnessed "Forbidden Object 0-91 Homecoming's bow image", the trajectory of your fate has changed slightly, and the current encounter progress is 25/100. Rating: A weird thing with an anchor in this world! Special rewards: Origin +5, Resilience Level +5, Spirit Level +5. 】

[Note 1: Forbidden object 0-91 The bow portrait of the Homecoming will absorb alien origin from a different space and enhance the user's own original power after use. 】

[Note 2: The bow image of Taboo 0-91 Homecoming will randomly throw people within 500 meters into a different space after losing control. 】

[Note 3: Method to remove "Forbidden Object 0-91 Homecoming's Bow Portrait": After losing control of the Homecoming, it was very eager for the touch of the captain of the Homecoming. Therefore, rubbing it three times will stop it from getting out of control. 】

Strengthen the origin...

Wayne took out the silver harmonium from the space ring and held it in his hand, and asked: "Are you going back to Custer City State? Director Alais."

"certainly!"

Alais did not deny it. He patted the ship's bow statue that had swollen several times beside him and said with a chuckle: "Thanks to Menor. Without him, I would not have been able to escape the pursuit of the 'heroic' saint, nor would I have been able to obtain this piece." Forbidden objects, come to Alexey Island again..."

"Menor?"

Wei En raised his eyebrows and suddenly realized, no wonder the "brave" saintess of the Church of Dawn has not shown up yet. It turned out that Menor's space teleportation ability helped.

"I know you have also joined the Eternal Life Society. In fact, my relationship with them is also very good. How about..."

As Alais spoke, he rubbed the ship's bow statue, and several strange sources of power emerged from his body. He continued: "Why don't you give Tina to me, and I'll let Menor help you become the new immortal." Council elder?"

"Ah!"

"Menor, I will go find him, but you - you must die here!"

Wei En sneered, put the harmonium to his mouth, and played it.

Slow and bright music echoed in this empty and messy port, and almost everyone felt the lack of power in their bodies.

Even Salvatore Samuel Capo, who has four pairs of bone wings in the sky, is no exception!

[You use "Forbidden Object 2-77 Karel's Whisper", the trajectory of fate changes slightly, and the current encounter progress is 85/100. Evaluation: Another loss of strength... Special rewards: 20 survival points, +5 origin, +5 spiritual level, +5 toughness level. 】

[You gain gains: your spiritual level is increased by 50%, your toughness level is increased by 100%, your attacks are blessed by the shadow source, and your original sub-body 'ghost' obtains a temporary spell brand - Soul Sting...]

"Damn it! Who is it!?"

Mubarak, who was turning into a shadow to attack Salvatore, instantly returned to his original appearance. His shadow origin was inexplicably unusable after the mouth organ music.

Unlike when it was dissolved before, this time he could feel that the shadow source was still in his body, but he couldn't use it, let alone consume it.

For a moment, he was stunned on the spot, and there was only one voice left in his mind: Dead!

I could barely resist it originally, but now I can't even defeat it...

No, even the ability to escape is gone!

The same is true for Asmir next to him, but he is better than Mubarak, just because of the loss of mental strength...

Salvatore frowned, he could feel that he was missing a magic rune brand.

"Don't make such a fuss. Isn't it just that the source is gone? I also lost a spell brand. Did I say anything?"

He looked at Wei En, who had four original sub-bodies below, and his eyes fell on the ghost's forehead. There was indeed an extra spell mark there, and the level was exactly the same as the one he had lost...

"But now, you can wait and die."

Although he didn't know what was going on, Salvatore didn't mind getting rid of the Calamity Cult members in front of him first, and then killing Mubarak.

If he really escaped, at worst he would ask his eldest brother to go to the Southern Continent.

I believe that the Shadow School will figure out what to do!

"Go on, I haven't tried the power of the source of disaster yet!"

As he spoke, Salvatore's bone wings vibrated behind him and he went straight towards Asmir.

Below, Alais was shocked and angry, staring at Wei En.

He had just used the power of the ship's bow statue to obtain the amplifying effect of the alien origin, but he didn't expect that he would feel weak immediately afterward.

The amount of terrifying resilience that disappeared actually consumed less than half of his own source of disaster.

Coming and going, does it mean there is no increase? !

"You...your forbidden object..."

"I said, I am different now than before!"

Wei En replied in a calm tone. His original strength had not increased much, but the toughness level and mental level in his body had increased horribly, making him feel full of strength.

Especially when he moved his hands and feet, there was a dim shadow attached to him, giving his every movement the blessing of the shadow source——

Toughness rating: 22358 (44716)

Spirit level: 22358 (33537)

Origin: 1533 (1534) (Seal 1 point of origin)

Wei En turned off the panel and his attributes increased so much. No wonder he felt the vigorous power himself!

Immediately afterwards, he did not dodge as before, but cast the newly learned spell for the first time——

"Domingo, add, Naxi!"

The ghost looked excited. After reciting the incantation, it turned into a gray mist and fell onto Wei En's head.

In an instant, the ring formed by the imprint of necromancy runes appeared in the middle of Wei En's eyebrows, and a pair of eyes emitted two dim red lights.

"Well."

"Is this what it feels like after merging souls?"

Wei En clenched his fist. He felt that he could control every part of his body, even a hair, to exert his own original power.

And his magic——

[You are affected by the soul-melting spell, fuse the original sub-body "ghost", and obtain the benefit effect: the spell level of your necromancy system +1! 】

Add one level to the level of all necromancy spells...

The corners of Wayne's mouth turned up slightly, and he looked at Alais and said, "Go on, if you delay it any longer, Tina will get impatient!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he recited the incantation that had been chanted by ghosts before:

"Cechel, add Biardini!"

The next second, a terrifying scream echoed around!

"not good!"

Alais secretly thought it was not good, and quickly blocked his ears, and at the same time, his figure shot backwards and away.

but--

[The Howl of Fear (Death) spell you released hits Alais Coulibaly, causing him to fall into fear and despair for 20 seconds. Evaluation: Oh? This looks a bit cool, not bad... Special rewards: +30 survival points, +1 spiritual level. 】

Damn, damn...

Under the gaze of that terrifying being, Alais couldn't even move a finger.

In the blur of consciousness, there was only this thought left in my mind - would it be nice to die like this...

Immediately afterwards, Wei En's body suddenly swelled several times, and under the blood boiling spell, his whole body was like a volcano about to erupt.

boom!

With a kick of his feet, he appeared next to Alais and punched him.

"This punch is for myself!"

boom!

Alais fell into the port, and the turbulent water swept over and poured into the deep pit that had just appeared.

With a calm expression on his face, Wei En stepped out of the way and put his foot on his head.

"This kick is for myself."

It's just myself when I was forced to leave Caster City-State!

Bang!

"This punch is for Tina!"

You even hurt a little girl like that? !

Boom!

"This time, it's for the people who died in Caster City-State because of you!"

Wayne punched and kicked Alais one after another.

Even if his body was protected by the source of disaster, when he lost consciousness, the recovery effect was not necessarily very good.

Not only that, along with his punches, the Secret Master and the Red Ghost, two source sub-bodies, were also releasing spells.

Even so, it took nearly a minute for him to completely get rid of Alais.

[You used the Undead Claw (Death) spell to injure Alais Coulibaly. Evaluation: Some progress... Special rewards: Survival points +10, spirit level +1, toughness level +1. ]

[...]

[You killed Alais Coulibaly. Evaluation: A very boring battle, but after reaching a certain level of strength, a single move can kill instantly! Special rewards: Survival points +100, Spirit level +5, Resilience level +5. 】

[Discover the source that can be devoured, do you want to use the Soul Devouring Spell? 】

Wayne looked at the almost unrecognizable Alais, and his face couldn't help showing a bit of complexity.

If he had such power when he was in the Caster City-State, would he still choose the same as before?

Soon, he nodded in his heart.

Yes!

Tina, a little girl like that, has been desperate since birth - just like when he first entered this world, he felt unfamiliar with everything around him and could only passively accept the arrangement of fate.

"Goodbye, Director Alais Coulibaly..."

"Adagua!" (Soul Devouring Spell!)

[You use the Soul Devouring Spell to devour part of Alais Coulibaly's source, and your source is improved. Evaluation: Disaster Source, hehe. Special reward: Source +10. 】

After doing all this, Wei En picked up the figurehead that fell on the ground, took a look at it, and threw it into the space ring.

One more forbidden object——

[You touch the "forbidden object 0-91 figurehead of the Homecoming", the trajectory of fate changes slightly, and the current encounter progress is 30/100. Special rewards: origin +5, toughness level +5, spirit level +5. 】

The process of killing Alais this time was much smoother than he imagined...

Well, thanks to the legendary Salvatore...

At this time, Asmir, who was fighting fiercely with Salvatore in the sky, felt the dissipation of the aura of the origin of the disaster below, and cursed him in his heart.

"Oh? Not bad, little guy." Salvatore also noticed that the battle below was over, and glared at Asmir, "Stay there honestly, let me kill you so that I can show off to you, little guy."

"Hmph!"

Asmir snorted coldly, and while Salvatore was attacking, he instantly retreated and landed on the high wall of the city-state, looking at Wei En: "I will come to you again!"

Before he finished speaking, he merged into the shadows, trying to escape from the island.

"Want to run?"

Salvatore glanced around, his bone wings vibrated twice, and he instantly appeared outside a building in the city-state, swinging the death sickle in his hand and slashing down.

"Leave it to me... huh?"

The sickle only hit part of his body, but more of it disappeared in a weird way.

"You ran so fast, and you still want to know the inside story about the old calendar!"

Victoria's etching knife... was that woman's weapon...

Is she really dead?

Thinking of this, Salvatore lifted the spell and returned to his original appearance, his face turned a little pale.

Tsk, the source is consumed too much... Really, if the little guy doesn't join the Taboo Research Institute, it will be a big loss!

On the other side, Wayne looked at Salvatore who was chasing him out, and his eyes fell on Mubarak.

"The wizard of the Shadow School..."

"Humph!"

Mubarak stared at him in shame and anger, without replying. He regretted coming to help Alais this time.

In the end, he didn't achieve any goals, but because of Salvatore's arrival, his source was greatly reduced.

Now he is threatened by a great wizard...

"Killing you shouldn't cause hatred from the Shadow School, right?"

Wayne landed beside him lightly, still holding the harmonica in his hand, looking at Mubarak in front of him, and in his mind, there seemed to be a voice echoing: Kill him, devour, kill him, devour!

Kill him?

Killing a legendary wizard, he should be able to gain a lot...

Thinking of this, Wayne punched him -

Hmm?

Salvatore appeared beside him and stopped him, "Wait a minute, little guy."

Wayne frowned and asked in confusion, "Are you going to let him go?"

"Of course not." Salvatore shook his head slightly, glanced at the frightened Mubarak and chuckled, "He is still useful. It would be a pity to kill him now."

"Oh."

Wayne resisted the temptation to kill Mubarak and get a reward, stopped using the harmonica, and let out a long breath.

Reward...

The impulse to get a reward is not as threatening as Salvatore's strength!

"You..." Mubarak's face was pale, and he was not glad that he did not die in Wayne's hands. He stared at Salvatore and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"What do you think?"

Salvatore saw that his shadow source power had recovered, so he hugged his neck and said in a low voice: "With you here, it can be proved that you are the perpetrator. I believe that the shadow school must have paid more."

"Don't even think about it!"

Mubarak's face changed slightly. These damn robbers, thieves, and bastards have long been coveting the inheritance of their shadow school.

He could imagine how bad the loss would be once the school agreed.

"It's not up to you!"

Salvatore slapped him in the abdomen, and instantly printed a small rune array on it by waving the origin.

"You!?"

Mubarak looked at the array in front of him and fell to the ground softly. It was even worse than not being able to use the origin just now. This time he couldn't even feel the shadow origin.

"You, kill me!"

"I've already said, I won't kill you." Salvatore asked with a smile: "How does the forbidden mark rune array of the Blood Spirit School taste?"

"That's right, your Shadow School has a similar array, I hope I can blackmail it from there this time... well, learn from it."

"Impossible!"

"That depends on the courage of your chief!"

Salvatore took out a coffin and threw Mubarak in it.

Wayne was speechless for a while. It seems that the behavior of borrowing spell knowledge from other schools has been engraved on every ghost wizard.

"Okay, when that's over, we can leave this island."

"Well."

Wayne looked at the sea in the distance, where there was a legendary follower of the Desire Sect, fighting with the deep-sea monster.

But leaving here...

"Legend Salvatore, you want to take me back to the school?"

"Why, don't you want to go back?" Salvatore chuckled: "Are you reluctant to leave the outside world, or are you afraid of the school?"

Reluctant?

Not really.

But he still has a few things to do.

At the same time -

Wayne pursed his lips and whispered: "I have always had a question."

"Tell me about it."

"I once devoured a shadow intelligence officer, and the source improvement I gained was far greater than that of others... So, I am worried..."

Salvatore was a little surprised, "I didn't expect you to have met other ghost wizards before."

"Yes." Wayne's heart was tense.

This has always been his worry, and it is also one of the reasons why he dared not return to the ghost.

Salvatore was silent for a few seconds, then sighed and said, "You are right to worry."

"Hmm?"

"In fact, since the founding of Ghost, there have always been some occult wizards with impure intentions. They are called Devourers in the school!"

Salvatore said with a somewhat ugly face, "The top leaders are also aware of their existence. Although there are measures to guard against them, they have not been completely eliminated for several eras."

"Many occult wizards with strong talents like you have been killed and devoured by them."

Wayne frowned, "Why not just get rid of them?"

It was hard for him to understand why Ghost left such a threat in the school.

Are those wizards who do whatever it takes for power also considered part of the school?

"On the one hand, they hid very deep, and several cleanups had no effect. On the other hand..."

"Some of the Devourers have also made great contributions in defending the school in several crises."

"Therefore, in order to prevent the school from being seriously damaged, most of the chiefs in front chose to turn a blind eye."

"Since you have devoured before, you should know how tempting such an improvement is to wizards. Even me..."

Salvatore paused here, his eyes revealed a bit of sadness, and said in a low voice: "Even I, there was a time when I couldn't resist that temptation."

"You?"

Wayne was stunned, and secretly alerted in his heart.

"Don't be afraid," Salvatore waved his hand and said, as if he saw what he was thinking: "That was before the new calendar."

"In short, you don't have to worry about the Devourers of the school, those people may soon die..."

Before the new calendar? More than a thousand years ago?

"Does the life span of legendary wizards last so long?"

Wayne nodded. Without those threats, he would be protected if he returned to the school.

Fortunately, the legendary wizard in front of him was not a Devourer, otherwise he would not be able to escape.

"Yes, if you transform into an undead creature like Bolas, you can survive forever if you are not killed."

Salvatore smiled, "But I don't want to be an undead, so my life will lack a lot of fun."

"I can't feel the temperature of the experimental subject, nor can I smell the blood. The difficulty of the research topic will increase a lot..."

Wayne: "..."

This is really a unique reason.

"Let's get back to the topic. Are you sure you don't want to return to the school?"
