Night had fallen, with slightly dim lights coming from many windows. Lawrence and the others followed the young painter towards the direction he said was home. Unexpectedly, the direction they were going was not
They asked about the place where the young man lived.
"Where are we going now?" Just as the young painter was walking in an alley with three people, Seifer suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "I see there is a warehouse on the river in front of you. You live in a warehouse.
?"
"No, of course not." After hearing this question, the young painter who was leading the way flashed a hint of ferocity on his face, but he still said in a very calm tone. "I lived above the apartments before, but that's not the case.
It’s just where I live. Only my studio in the front warehouse is my real home, because that’s where my soul rests.”
"The place where the soul rests? You are right, just like the proverb says: Where the treasure is, there is the heart. Only the place where the soul rests can be called home, and other places can also be called home.
It's just a place to live." Saphire responded with a slightly exaggerated aria learned in a girls' school.
During the chat, the four people slowly walked to a somewhat dilapidated warehouse and stopped. Then the painter turned his head and stared at them and said in a low voice, "Okay, this lovely lady is here.
Wait here, and you follow me."
Just when he opened his mouth to speak, Lawrence suddenly felt a mental shock, as if a voice hinted from the bottom of his heart that he should follow the man in front of him.
"It's a spiritual spell again. Are spiritual spells so common these days?" Lawrence muttered in his heart, pretending to be controlled, and walked towards a dark alley next to him under his leadership, because he also wanted to go.
Solve problems in a place with fewer people. Although there are not many people in this place, there are always one or two.
When this man was walking in front of Lawrence and Fatina, preparing to lead them to the secluded alley next to them, Lawrence successfully used [Messaging Technique] to contact the two ladies. It was obvious that everyone now
It's not under control, everything is within the plan.
"We're here, we're going to be here soon." After walking into the alley without any street lights, the young painter thought to himself. "What a lovely lady, I will soon have one more in my collection. As long as this annoying man is removed first,
Just clean it up with the disgusting big rats."
"This world is really unfair. Why can they stay with such a lovely lady?" At this time, they had reached the middle of the alley. In the darkness, the nails on the painter's fingers quickly grew longer and sharper. At the same time,
A little bit of bright green light oozed from the scalpel-like nails.
"Go to hell now! Those beautiful existences and powers should all be mine." Thinking of this, he stopped and bent down as if to pick something up on the ground, while checking for the two people following him.
s position.
After confirming the location of the two people following him, he quickly turned around and grabbed Lawrence, who was closer to him, directly from bottom to top with his claws.
Originally, he expected to see torn flesh, splashing blood, and a frightened and pale face just like the previous times, but this time he unexpectedly missed it.
When he raised his head, what he saw was the black muzzle of the pistol in the raised right hand of the young man standing four or five meters away from him.
"Bang——" "Ah."
The painter covered his left eye and backed away quickly, with a look of horror and disbelief on his face. The severe pain from his eyes and head told him that he was seriously injured at this time.
At this time, the rat man also approached him and grabbed his left wrist. In an instant, black burn marks were left on the skin where he was caught, and at the same time, all his clothes began to burn.
And a bright flame broke out.
This is when Fatina was hit in the eye by a gunshot, and while the opponent was in a state of panic, she approached the opponent and used the [Burning Technique]. This spell has a certain chance of igniting the target's body if it burns the target.
Combustibles, and Fatina was lucky today and set fire to her opponent's clothes.
"You are all going to die." The pain all over his body completely angered the painter. His figure slowly began to twist and shrivel, and at the same time, an invisible mental shock hit Lawrence and Fatina in the form of a fan.
Both the giant dragon and Bai Ze were born with excellent mental resistance, so this blow had no effect. At the same time, Lawrence noticed a trace of black blood coming out from the covered area of his left hand through the fingers, and
After the blood fell to the ground, it burned with blue flames like alcohol.
Taking advantage of his illness to kill him. Lawrence thought of resisting his mental shock, raised his pistol, pointed it at his head, and repeatedly pulled the trigger on his head, which was beginning to shrivel and turn black, using exorcism bullets to create five wounds.
It completely shattered everything above his nose.
Fatina also took a deep breath, then opened her mouth and spit out a ball of flames that burned on the painter's body. In an instant, the guy's body itself began to dim, and the flames lit up again, looking like a torch.
Under the double attack, the painter finally couldn't support himself and fell to the ground. By the light of the fire, Lawrence found that he had lost his human form and looked like a skeleton wrapped only in a layer of black skin.
Finally, after the monster on the ground made a gurgling sound in its throat, its limbs twitched and fell to the ground motionless. At the same time, Lawrence saw a pink and black soul emerging from the corpse, and then Bai Ze in Lawrence's mind
The shadow was sucked in.
Feeling that the phantom of Bai Ze in his mind had become more solid after inhaling Tuan's soul, Lawrence raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"It seems that this guy has degenerated very much. Otherwise, some unpolluted souls would have been sent into the River Styx just like last time." Looking at the body that had its soul sucked away, it suddenly seemed like it was weathered.
Quickly turning to ash, Lawrence thought.
Just when he was about to wait for the monster's body to finish weathering and check to see if there were any trophies left behind, a canine howling sound suddenly came from the direction of the entrance to the alley where they had just entered.
"Oops! Something happened at Saphiel's place." Thinking of this, Laurenson immediately ran towards the entrance where he had just come in, with Fatina following closely behind him.
When the two of them ran to the entrance of the alley, they saw Sephiel holding a dagger in each hand, confronting the dog as big as a giant wolf in front of them. They both stared nervously into each other's eyes.
But neither side made the first move, but waited for the other side to reveal its flaws.
After hearing footsteps coming from the alley next to it, the dog immediately rushed to the side, then opened its mouth at a speed exceeding normal and bit Lawrence. When Saifei reacted and chased after him,
Already a step slower.
A smell of sulfur came to him, and Lawrence even saw that the dog's teeth, which were obviously much sharper than ordinary dogs, were messily intertwined on the gums, just like the teeth of a saw.
[Magic Missile], Lawrence immediately raised his left hand and used this magic to hit the vicious dog's chest, injuring him and causing it to pause in the air. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he raised his right hand to use the pistol in his hand.
Guan aimed at the dog's open mouth and pulled the trigger.
There was a dull gunshot unique to a large-caliber pistol, and the head of this vicious dog with regional origins immediately turned into an exploding firework of flesh and blood. The skull that could block the rifle shot could not block the demon-breaking bullet.
Shooting from a weak point at zero range.
"Huh." After seeing that the soul of the vicious dog in front of him was also swallowed up by Bai Ze's shadow, Lawrence breathed a long sigh of relief and the expression on his face relaxed a lot. He was indeed a little careless just now, and he didn't expect that the painter would still
He had an extraordinary vicious dog with hellish blood as his companion. Fortunately, Saphiel successfully held off the other party and did not cause any greater losses.
