Rod was cursing the foolish woman countless times in his mind while thinking fast about how to break out of this situation.
He didnât mind dying here, but he didnât want to see Anfi suffer the same fate.
After all, she was his lifesaver, as well as his disciple, and perhaps there were some indescribable feelings mixed in.
However, he helplessly discovered that his power was too low, he had no hope of breaking the deadlock.
âIâŠâ
Listening to the increasingly urgent sound, Rod stood up, ready to directly attack.
Without any other good solution, he could only hope that he could eliminate most of the enemies in a surprise attack.
Boom!
At that moment, a terrifying wave suddenly erupted in the woods!
Roar!
Rod felt as if a giant dragon appeared in front of him, its enormous body obscuring the sky, its cold vertical pupils looking directly at him.
Cold! Ruthless! Derision!
Overwhelming! Terrifying!
Irresistible!
This horrific pressure seemed to act directly on the soul, making him, a fourth-level master occupational person, have the impulse to kneel down.
âIs⊠is this the legendary⊠Dragon Might?â
âImpossible⊠Giant Dragons⊠havenât they all disappeared from the continent long ago?â
Rod felt as if lead water was being poured into his head, causing his thinking to become sluggish.
What was more sluggish was his body, which seemed to have turned into a statue.
âItâs over⊠If this is a power from Organisation Black Light, I stand no chanceâŠâ
Rodâs figure was undoubtedly exposed. He looked at the members of Organisation Black Light opposite him, and a look of despair appeared on his face.
But the next moment, he was surprised to find that the members of Organisation Black Light were even worse off than he was, all of them falling limp to the ground. Those above the third level could stay conscious, but those below had passed out, with even a foul smell coming from their pants.
They were so scared that they wet themselves!
âItâs not⊠members of Organisation Black LightâŠâ
Rodâs heart relaxed slightly, then tensed again: âIs it a fifth-level official? Am I that unlucky? In a remote small town, I can still encounter strong official occupational persons?â
âRod, donât resist!â
But the next moment, a very familiar voice came to his ears, and at the same time, a palm rested on his shoulder.
Rod was startled, and really didnât resist.
Boom!
The next moment, a sensation of the world spinning came to him.
It seemed he saw the sky falling to the ground, radiating colorful light. Many symbols and information formed a long river trying to pour into him, yet they were blocked by a purple-gold light.
A sense of weightlessness came over him as if he was falling straight from a high cliff.
Rod jolted as the scene around him changed. He saw a beautifully decorated living room, with a monotonous black and white uniformed maid standing next to it, holding a tray.
âRod!â
Anfiâs voice of surprise came from beside him, grabbing his arm, âAre you okay?â
âI⊠Iâm fine!â
Rod had a feeling of dreaming. Then suddenly, he saw the young man standing behind him, his eyes turned red: âItâs you! Su Lu!â
âLong time no see, my brother.â
Su Lu gave Anfi a glance, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: âLuckily, I wasnât late!â
âWhat⊠whatâs going on? Where is this?â
Rod took a look around, especially at the maid, feeling as if she were very dangerous.
âDonât worry, youâre safe now. This is Green Tree Castle City, my mansion.â
Su Lu gestured for Rod to sit down: âCome⊠have a drink, I know you have a lot of questions.â
He snapped his fingers, and Beryl immediately brought the strong liquor and ice cubes.
âYes!â
Rod withdrew his demon form, gave himself a big gulp, and his palms were slightly trembling.
This was a hangover from just being too tense in the previous stimulating moment. âFirst of all, how did you find me?â
âSince⊠I got back, Iâve been looking for information about you.â Su Lu folded his hands and put them on his knees: âIt looks like you saw the newspaper introducing me.â
âYes, then what?â
âThen, it was me.â Anfi said: âAt that timeâŠyou distracted the enemies, I took the opportunity to run out of the station and happened to see a telegraph office. You had said that it was one of the properties your brother had acquired, so I sent an express telegram, directed to the headquarters of the telegraph company, and the end was your name.â
âFortunately, although I was not at the headquarters, I had given the corresponding instructionsâŠmore importantly, my house just installed a radio receiver.â
Su Lu answered with a smile.
Otherwise, even though he had the means of Spirit World Traversal, if he rushed over, he would only be able to collect Rodâs corpse.
âAs for later, traversing the world, wiping out those ants, is merely my powerâŠâ
âYour power?â
Rod still felt a bit dizzy.
âYes, Iâve reached the fifth levelâŠIâve gained the ability of Spirit World Traversal.â
Su Lu shrugged his shoulders.
Yet Rodâs expression was quite wooden: âThis is legendaryâŠwhy do I get the feeling from you as if you just went out to buy a sandwich?â
âHeheâŠperhaps.â
Su Lu responded with a smile.
Of course, Rod was joking.
He knew that his brother must have gone through some terrifying trials in order to break through the fifth level, and to return from the place where Rogeâs Adventurer Door teleported.
âAlright, now what we need to discuss more is your situation. Have youâŠturned to the [Fallen] path?â
Su Lu signaled Beryl to bring a glass of soda.
âSheâŠâ
Rod glanced at the maid.
âDonât worry, she is trustworthyâŠat present.â Su Lu nodded.
âAlrightâŠindeed, my faith was not very strong, and after that incident, I thought you were dead or would never come back. ThusâŠâ
Rod said: âFortunately Miss Anfi saved me, andâŠI found that as long as [Fallen] are sufficiently determined, although they will be influenced to some extent, it is still bearable.â
âA clear-headed Fallen?â
Su Lu laughed: âIt seems that the church and the family have hidden a lot. Itâs a pity that once your state is discovered, we will be in trouble.â
Compared to the Goddess Church, the Black Death Society was nothing, and Organisation Black Light wasnât even comparable to ants.
âYesâŠâ
Rod fell silent. He knew that if his news got out, some Demon Hunters whose minds were not firm, or who felt it was difficult to break through the fifth level, could get some crooked ideas!
The [Fallen] path is easier than being a Demon Hunter, moreover, they inherently carry legendary profession information!
Maybe the number of [Fallen] in the world would increase several times at once.
âWe donât have to be so pessimistic. About this matter, the upper echelons of the church and the top demons should be very clearâŠbut the church suppresses it, and the legendary-level demons donât bother spreading itâŠbecause according to the churchâs propaganda, everything they say cannot be believed, itâs just a trap to lure you into fallingâŠâ
âAnd for those who want to personally try, how many Demon Hunters dare to risk their lives?â
