The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 584: Torch and Styx

In order to prevent the other party from misjudging the difference in strength and making hasty moves, Sean asked Olivia, who was waiting outside the subway station, to stand on the outermost layer of the encirclement.

She released a huge deterrent in the darkness, enough to make the two explorers behind her dare not act rashly.

The undead agent in front of him obviously realized that he was in a balance of power, he did not choose to do it, but said: "My friend, as you can see, if we do it, then no one will have a good night.

"Instead of hurting both sides, why not accept my previous proposal, my friend.

"After all, I also paid the price - I lost a mature C-level mysterious heritage, and now I have to provide you with spoils..."

Hearing what the agent of the undead said, Xiao En faintly felt a little angry.

The other party did lose his "Herota's Messenger", but his newspaper office was almost destroyed!

If that happened, he would probably kill someone.

As a result, the executor in front of him was talking lightly about his loss.

Sean suppressed his temper, and said: "If we do it like this, both parties may have to bear immeasurable losses..." Although Sean is confident of defeating this team, his teammates may be seriously injured or even die. I don't want to take such a risk just to show off my temper.

The agent of the undead nodded in satisfaction.

"Then let's have a showdown between the two of us."

The skull's face was stunned, and the frown could be heard from his voice: "Why are you fighting? Even if you beat me, I can't tell you the information of my client."

Sean nodded: "I know."

"Then why a duel?!"

"It was my client's request. He wanted me to punish the man who fouled his newspaper office and killed his employees.

"And use this to send a message to the entire mystery exploration community: the mysterious community should not get involved in his business scope, otherwise he will definitely retaliate severely."

The agent of the undead was obviously angry, and he waved his arms: "Damn it! I agreed to give the loot, and I also lost my mysterious inheritance!"

Sean didn't speak, just stared at the perpetrator in front of him: "Come, or not?"

His meaning is obvious: is it a Quest duel, or a life-and-death contest between teams?

The skeleton finally lost his patience: "I will make you regret it."

He reached into the black feather cloak, took out a dark red thing that looked like a blood scab, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Then, the black feathers all over his body stood up as if they had life force, and began to flutter like smoke.

Behind the agent of the dead, a door that can only appear in dreams emerged...

That is, the gate of the underworld.

He carried out "death transformation" on himself, and in the body of a living person, he possessed the breath of death.

In this state, the ghost spells he uses will be greatly strengthened.

The unsettling cries of the ravens came out one after another, and the feathers on the skeleton became more and more abundant...

As if a strong wind had blown by, the black feathers floated back, and the agent of the undead shortened the distance to the sea of ​​twilight in the blink of an eye.

In the process of approaching in the air, the proxy pointed to the rows of inscriptions on the mask with his long and thin fingers, and chanted chapters and sentences about He Luota, the gatekeeper of the underworld.

The gate of the netherworld behind him became more and more clear, and Sean could even see a curved river of the underworld on his left.

Abnormally turbulent and abundant spiritual power!

The Queen in front of him is obviously a Quest waiting for promotion!

The inscriptions on the skull's face lit up one by one as he chanted, and his right hand suddenly swung an arc. In the deep darkness, a huge skeleton palm whizzed towards him, as if it wanted to grab all the souls in the world!

Sean's figure sank, and his eyes were stained with the frost of a wolf under the mask—

The other party obviously used a powerful blow, so what I retaliated must also be a powerful blow!

He mobilized nearly half of his spiritual power and invested it in the nightingale symbol of "Ms. Hersheys".

His soul space was instantly illuminated by golden flames.

In the bright flames in front of his eyes, Xiao En waved his right hand, as if drawing an unquenchable tributary from an eternally burning kingdom.

The golden flame, which obviously has a stronger sense of existence than the real world, spewed out, as if burning the dark space in the subway station.

As if a hundred fireworks were detonated in an instant, the entire platform was illuminated in every detail. Everyone was forced to take a step back by the heat emitted by the golden flame.

The originally menacing huge bone palm, like a paper model, was pierced by the stream of flames, torn to pieces, turned into wisps and floated back into the darkness.

Sean's blow not only broke through the agent's powerful moves, but even burned half of his feathers. On the agent's already wrinkled body, the white body hair was ignited, and he stepped back a few steps in a funny way. .

Sean was a little surprised. He originally thought that such a strong "torch of oath" could not only break the tricks, but also directly knock down the opponent...

Unexpectedly, although the opponent was unable to fight back due to shock and damage, he still stood.

He had no choice but to wrap the scarlet pen with spiritual matter, and quickly "exchange" the divine power that filled his soul into the frightening power that belonged to the "Two Sun City".

The golden flames suddenly spread out into scarlet wisps, and two red suns appeared behind Xiao En.

The superimposed horror scene suddenly descended on the side of the agent of the undead, overwhelming the lost soul explorer to the ground, and he lost consciousness for a moment...

The outcome has been decided, and Sean withdrew his psychic matter.

The decayed rags that seemed to fill the entire booth suddenly disappeared.

Duo pairs of pupils who were stung by the strong light couldn't adapt to the darkness here for a while, so they had to squint their eyes...

Tap, tap, tap.

Perhaps it was because they were surprised that the battle ended so quickly, or maybe they were afraid of the two abilities that Xiao En showed in an instant, in the entire subway station, the three teammates of the agent of the dead held their breath and remained silent. Only Sean's footsteps could be heard—

According to the rules, Sean searched for the agent through the psychic matter, and found a strange thing in the pocket of his black feather cloak.

It was a black, shriveled fetus. The fetus has a very old-looking face.

Feel carefully, the fetus seems to be still breathing. As long as you gently stroke this strange little mummy, he will open his mouth and spit out a scab-like thing.

And the thing ~lightnovelpub.net~ swallowed by the undead agent before to make himself ghost is this blood scab...

"Soulless Blood Cup", a high-value C-level mysterious heritage made by the high priest of the Helota belief (most likely made by the agent of the dead himself). Every day, one blood pill can be produced that can enable people to achieve ghost transformation, but the carrier will have the breath of death, and unfortunate events are prone to happen around them...

Sean naturally didn't need it, but considering the lunar ritual that their entire team was about to face, he still accepted this mysterious inheritance.

After getting the spoils according to the "winner takes all" rule, Sean looked around and said to the Agent's teammates who were threatening before:

"So, what other gentleman would like to challenge?"

The subway station is quiet, and you can hear the wind blowing on the stairs, and the sizzle of the lamp voltage being unstable...

Even though there are still three powerful Queens standing here, Xiao En's words, like a stone thrown into an abyss, did not provoke any response.
