Jide Xin straightened up from his seat, slowly narrowed his eyes, stroked his chin, and stared at her with a slightly amused look.
"Kratos." He said word by word, "It's really interesting. A little person who is supposed to be unknown, but I heard his name more than once. Maybe this is a joke of fate."
"So, you know where he is?"
"Unfortunately, I don't know." The man chuckled, "But the man next to you knows, doesn't he? If my source of information is correct, it was him who killed Kratos Miltine."
"No, I didn't—" Fael stood up suddenly, looking extremely frightened.
"You did it." Jide Xin's voice was suddenly full of bewitching power, "Have you forgotten? You sent him home drunk, watched him fall asleep, took out the syringe, and pierced him.
The bony arms slowly pushed the colorless and odorless deadly poison into the blood vessels. Then, you stayed by his side and watched him painlessly... fall into eternal sleep in his sleep."
"No, it's impossible! That, that was just a dream of mine!" Fael waved his arms vigorously, trying to drive something away, "When I woke up, I was in bed at home, and I was the only one around me.
people--"
The girl's thoughts were spinning rapidly. The power of the "Lord of Heaven" can dissolve toxins, but it is not good at identifying toxins. Her previous examination could not show anything. Maybe what Jide said was the truth, maybe there was something hidden in it, but these are all
That's not the point. By now, anyone can see that things have turned in an uncontrollable direction.
Yuffie stood up quickly, and Elena leaned beside her, also on alert. She stared at Jide and quickly asked, "What are you doing?"
The young man sighed, "Miss Yuffie Steinmetz, I remember telling you that this person named Fael is not worthy of your trust."
She wanted to continue asking, but was stopped by the strong warning signs in her heart. She turned her face and saw Fael suddenly approaching her. The muscles of his arms bulged, and his huge fist was swinging towards the bridge of her nose with all his strength -
The fist was pushed to one side at the last moment, but the man's body crashed into her without losing momentum. The huge impact knocked Yuffie's whole body away, knocking over a chair placed in the corner, and hit her hard.
She fell over there. She endured the severe pain in her back to support her body, and saw that Elena had already met Fael, and the two were wrestling with each other, and no one could gain the upper hand for the time being.
Yuffie tried to move her body, but the sensation below her waist was still there, which meant that her spine was not damaged. She raised her head and stared calmly at the young man who was slowly walking towards her with a cold smile on his face.
.
"This is not the way to treat old customers." She said calmly, silently reciting the protective spell in her heart, "And Jide, do you want to watch your house be demolished?"
"Don't worry." The young man sneered, "I won't be living here soon. Also, it's best not to expect anyone to come and disturb you. The residents here are already one with me - I
I think you are so smart that you understand what I mean."
Of course she understands. Geed has also brought nearby residents into the spiritual network, monitoring and controlling their every move, just like the Black Crow Knights and Fael. What's worse is that from the situation of the receptionist of the "Guild"
It can be seen that Geed can control those who have taken the potion through language and even mental suggestions. The surrounding residents who seemed normal when they arrived are likely to have fallen into a deep dream...or worse.
Yuffie looked out the window, and her bad premonition was confirmed. A dense crowd surrounded the outside of the house, standing motionless like a group of clay and wood sculptures. She knew that with a mental command, these citizens would turn into
A crazy beast that pounces on any 'enemy' in front of it regardless of its own safety.
Naturally, their combat effectiveness cannot be expected, but not everyone can harden their heart and wield a sharp blade against a group of unarmed ordinary citizens - even if they could, it was not the result she wanted to see.
There is only one conclusion that can be drawn: defeat the man in front of you as soon as possible and force him to release all the souls he has imprisoned.
The magic enveloped her silently, covering up everything about her in an instant, including her figure, voice and smell. She stood up hard, being careful not to touch anything, and pointed her fingertips at the young man's eyebrows——
"What a pity. It seems you are even stupider than I thought." Jide said contemptuously. He turned towards her direction, as if the girl's invisibility had no effect at all, "I thought you should know... I have no feelings for Zeng.
Uninvited 'visitors' are always very impressive."
A sudden mental shock penetrated her brain, which contained murmurs, curses and cries from countless souls with no logic and meaning. This without any suspense defeated the incantation she was reciting silently, even when it was taking effect.
The invisibility spell was also shattered. Yuffie covered her head and staggered back to the wall, trying her best to stay awake.
"You... are not a wizard." She said firmly, "You are a warlock. But to be able to directly use the soul power of those people - what have you turned yourself into, Gid?"
Warlocks, or some of them call themselves the "Chosen Ones", are people who are born with the ability to sense and use magic. The origins of warlocks are varied. Some are the descendants of humans and other magical creatures - such as dragons - and some are magical experiments.
products, the last of which are purely accidental.
Unlike wizards who learn arcane structures from the basics and try to master the truth, they focus on improving their unique talents and prefer practical applications over theory. Many warlocks will even further modify their bodies to increase the intensity of their natural powers.
Obviously, Geed's talent is related to the soul. But this kind of simple but rough spiritual impact cannot be easily achieved by even a mid-level wizard who is good at spiritual mysteries.
"Who knows." The young man said noncommittally, "I only know that your mere secret skills are not worth mentioning in my eyes."
The current situation is quite unfavorable to her. It is not a good idea to continue to fight head-on. Yuffie quickly makes a judgment. Mental impact requires almost no spells or gestures, which means that in a one-on-one situation, most of her powerful secrets
There is no way to cast any spell. Moreover, with the souls of hundreds of people as backup, it would be impossible to compete with Geed for endurance.
Elena is still fighting Fael. The traveling nun's body is shrouded in a faint golden holy light. The "Lord of Light" gives her physical strength far beyond ordinary people, but the man's attack method, which seems to risk his life, makes her short-lived.
There was nothing they could do. The two of them used all available furniture at hand as weapons, shields and even throwing weapons - a ceramic teacup whizzed past Yuffie's ear and smashed into pieces on the wall behind her.
She had to find a way to attract his attention, and it only took a moment. As soon as she came up with this idea, she heard the door of the house explode, and with it came the familiar voice of her friend.
"Really, I told you to pay attention to your safety!"
Lin spread her golden wings, kicked off the wall, and pounced on Geed like a bird of prey. The young man had no choice but to turn his attention away from Yuffie and retreat to the side of the house. He narrowed his eyes and used the same technique on Lin.
The mental shock only made the blond girl frown, and the effect was obviously not as good as expected - the Dragon Clan's resistance to mental attacks was extremely strong, and was one of the few on the entire continent.
Another figure holding a rapier flashed into the room and joined the battle between Elena and Fael. Her steps were like a gorgeous dance, and each sword was thrust out from a blind spot that was difficult for men to take care of.
Faer was immediately overwhelmed.
That was Annaweir of "Wind Dance", Lin's biological mother. Yuffie had long known that she was an excellent swordsman, but he never expected that she would personally join this battle.
"Stop it, Geed." Annaweil forced Fael back with a sword, took the opportunity to temporarily leave the battle group, and shouted to Geed, "The guards of the Public Security Department have arrived to release you from control of those people. This is your
