“What are you scheming now?” Dragon Town asked curiously.
“Nothing much, I just want to conceal my identity. We’re about to get involved in some illegal activities, so it’s troublesome if anyone sees my true face,”
Vincent replied as he began walking in the direction given by the [Simulation].
The direction guidance was an illusory arrow floating in the air, always pointing towards the depths of the forest.
Instead of walking on a paved road, Vincent had to step on a ground covered with fallen leaves, entangled vines, and thorny bushes.
The path was indeed difficult, and Vincent could only use a dagger from his Space Bracelet to assist him.
As they moved forward, Dragon Town, lying on Vincent’s head, gradually became more and more alert.
“Vincent, let’s go that way,” Dragon Town flicked Vincent’s forehead, hinting that something was happening in that direction.
His face turned pale as he saw several pet beast corpses on the ground, covered in wounds that emitted a dark and poisonous aura. As soon as he approached, he could feel an incredibly evil presence.
When the dark aura touched the nearby plants, they visibly withered, decayed, and eventually died.
“Is this the work of the demon beasts from the Devil’s Domain?” Vincent asked in horror as he looked at the scene before him.
“That’s right, it’s the work of the Demon Beasts. Most of their abilities are bizarre and terrifying, and they vary depending on the demon domain they come from,” Dragon Town replied, already accustomed to such small-scale scenes.
“And judging by this familiar aura of death, these demon beasts must have escaped from the newly emerged Three- Star Magic Domain—Death Demonic Domain—next to Los Angeles,” Dragon Town continued.
“Really? I thought it was already sealed off and guarded. How could something like this happen?”
“Monarch-Level demons are too conspicuous to escape, but it’s a different story for other levels of demon beasts,” Dragon Town explained. “Devil’s Domains are also a type of Mysterious Realm, with huge profits at stake. Unlike the Mysterious Realm where everyone keeps to themselves, the Devil’s Domain is aggressive and requires people to suppress it.”
“Suppression will cause casualties, and there aren’t many people in the City Defense Team. If there are too many casualties, the city’s safety will be compromised. ”
“This is when Beast-controlling mercenary groups, aristocratic private armies, and civilian beast-controlling masters are needed to help.”
“However, this may allow demon beasts from the Devil’s Domain to infiltrate and gain control over the Beast Masters through contracts, turning them into
Evil Beast Masters and escaping the demon domain.”
“But won’t the Evil Beast Masters be discovered?” Vincent asked.
“Evil Beast Masters won’t be found out if they don’t display the power of the Demon Domain. Unless everyone is checked individually, there will always be some who slip through the cracks,”
Vincent looked past the pet beast corpses and saw a man in a white coat lying not far away. He quickly went to check on him.
The man’s breath was faint, and his chest was still imbued with a dark aura. He seemed to be resisting the erosion, but it was clear that he didn’t have much time left.
“Uncle Cartwright, can you handle his injuries?”
“I’ll give it a try.”
Dragon Town flew down from Vincent’s head, pressing its energy-laden dragon claw onto the man’s chest.
Instantly, the dark aura was suppressed but still clung to him like a malignant tumor. It could not be eradicated and even started to erode Dragon Town’s energy.
“No use, it can only delay the inevitable for a short while. He’ll still die when the time comes.”
“Well, we’ll leave it up to his fate then.”
Vincent gave the man some Stamina Potion before continuing to follow the direction guidance.
This time, he followed the path cleared by the men in black, which allowed him to move at a much faster pace.
Soon, Dragon Town whispered, “Be careful; I can sense that disgusting aura up ahead.”Vincent Wolf immediately slowed down, bending forward with light steps, cautiously moving forward.
While he was still moving, a burst of laughter came from the front, startling him into thinking he had been exposed just as he arrived. He almost leaped up in surprise.
“The strength of our Evil Eye Clan is our caution and secrecy. Otherwise, why would the Majesty choose us to handle such a big task? Isn’t it because he values our abilities?”
“I’d say it’s all thanks to the Elder Brother’s wisdom in identifying the Tree of Life as a product of the Spirit of the Mysterious Realm’s energy overflow, and discovering the location of the Spirit of the Mysterious Realm in no time.”
“Enough, let’s focus on the task at hand. As soon as we get our hands on the prize, the next Monarch’s position will be ours!”
Vincent Wolf hid in the bushes, looking at the depression ahead.
Inside the depression, corpses of various magical beasts were scattered everywhere, from plant-type to smaller creatures. The ground was a strange yellow color due to the mix of red and green fluids.
At the center was a giant green fallen tree, with its entwined roots lifting the earth along with it.
At the bottom of the tree, there were three people dressed in black.
Each of them had a third eye between their eyebrows, looking grotesque and enormous, surrounded by small tentacles rooted in their foreheads. The dark pupils within their eyes were constantly shifting and rolling around.
The trio was pressing their hands against a barrier, with pitch-black energy gradually enveloping it. The barrier had almost turned entirely black, with only a trace of weak green light remaining.
“Aren’t they done yet? Uncle Cartwright, what’s their level? Can you handle them?”
Vincent Wolf was getting anxious. It would be unbearable to watch someone else take the treasure in front of his eyes.
“Two lower level Commanders and one high-level Commander. If the three of them team up, we’ll probably end in a draw, but you won’t survive. Even if you retreat, there’s no way to get the item!”
“We’ll draw them away!”
“But how? They’re not idiots. They must know they’re almost done.”
“I have a plan. Listen to me.”
With that, Vincent Wolf whispered into Cartwright’s ear.
“Alright, leave it to me!”
“We’re almost done!” The third and second Evil Eye brothers exclaimed in excitement. “Elder Brother, look!”
“Stop fussing and making a fuss.”
The Evil Eye Elder Man tried to maintain composure, however, his bulging pupils betrayed his excitement.
Boom –
At that moment, a massive fiery Dragon Breath struck them from behind. It hit the three of them directly, followed by an explosion of heatwaves and strong winds.
“Which bastard?” “Do they want to die?”
“How dare they attack us!”
The three Evil Eye Clan members were left with disheveled appearances after the surprise Dragon Breath attack. If the Evil Eye Elder Man hadn’t reacted in time and used a high-level defense skill [Death Shield], at least one of his brothers would have been severely injured.
Frustrated and humiliated, the Evil Eye Elder Man released a high-level skill, [Death Ray], which pierced directly into Cartwright.
Puff –
Cartwright was thrown several meters back and a trail of blood followed him, revealing that he had been severely injured!
