America, California, a private winery by the sea. The scenery was picturesque, and the sea breeze was intoxicating.
In the depths of the manor, in an exceptionally large underground storage room that had been modified, hundreds of white candles were flickering with flames.
In the dim candlelight, a dozen or so robust young men were tied up in chains and gagged, revealing expressions of fear.
They were all looking at a white-haired old woman. The old woman was dressed in a grey robe, and her face was covered in wrinkles. Her cheeks were sunken, as if she was a living dead.
The most terrifying thing was that this old woman's eyes gradually turned pitch black, as if she was a demon or ghost, emitting a dark aura that caused people to feel despair …
The old woman opened her arms, and a black phantom demon appeared above her head. It then opened its bloody mouth and pounced towards the dozen or so young and strong men!
The group of men let out miserable cries for help, but underground, it was completely meaningless.
The group of men quickly shriveled up and aged, turning into skin and bones. After a dozen or so white-haired old men, they lost all signs of life on the spot.
On the other hand, this old woman's dry white hair had turned into soft golden hair. Her skin was tight and fair, and she was filled with a youthful aura.
In an instant, she had changed from an old lady to a young girl. She had the charm of a mature woman, and her every movement was enchanting.
"Phew …" The woman let out a long breath in enjoyment, revealing a satisfied smile. "I've finally come back to life, Auland …" You've made me wait too long this time. "
In front of the woman, in a dark corner, a tall and straight man was silently watching everything that was happening.
The man walked out of the shadows, revealing a handsome and resolute face. He said, "Sylvie, you should be satisfied. In just a few days, you have to bring these dozen or so Dragon Riders over for you to absorb their life force without being discovered by the others in the organization. This is not an easy task."
"Who told you to use Dragon Riders? You can go to the streets and capture people. As long as they're young and strong, you can do it." Sylvie sneered.
"An ordinary person's life force would take at least forty to fifty times for you to recover, and it might not even be enough. That would have too much of an impact. I don't want to take such a risk," Auland said.
"There's nothing I can do about it. If I want to blame someone, I can only blame that traitor, Lucifer. If it wasn't for him …" I wouldn't have gotten nothing and almost died in China! "Sylvie's eyes were filled with hatred.
Auland Duo narrowed his eyes and said, "I told you before, you think Lucifer is too simple."
"So what, respected Holy Dragon Knight? Now that your Dragon Flame Badge has been stolen and Lucifer has already urinated on your Dragon Knight armor, what qualifications do you have to say such sarcastic words to me?" Sylvie sneered.
Auland's face was as dark as water, "You don't have to anger me. Whether it's Lucifer or Durk, they won't be able to escape from my palm.
As long as General Robert is unable to convince them, I will naturally take action to quell this rebellion...
"Before that, Rebus and Barbara have already arrived. Rebus has been looking for you recently, and the servants in the manor have reported that he doesn't seem to have a good temper."
Sylvie coldly snorted, "I also want to find him, that idiot arms dealer who stinks of money. Come, let's go meet him!"
With that, Sylvie walked barefooted towards the exit of the basement.
Auland Duo glanced at the dozen or so Dragon Rider corpses that had been sucked dry, and with a cold expression, he struck out with his palm.
The spiritual energy released by this palm formed a violent gust of wind. With a powerful explosive force, it actually shattered these corpses into pieces!
At the same time, the fragments of these corpses fell to a distant corner. There were skeletons piled up like a small mountain!
Beside the open-air pool in the manor.
Rebus was wearing a flowery shirt and sunglasses. He was lying on a beach chair with a displeased expression. Beside him was a bottle of whiskey that he had already drunk more than half of.
His daughter, Barbara, was wearing a bikini swimsuit. Her sexy and plump figure was completely revealed in the pool.
"Dear Dad, since you're already here, why don't you enjoy the sunlight here?" Barbara lay by the pool and giggled.
"I'm not in the mood to be idle. If I didn't find this place, who knows how long that damned Sylvie would have to drag it out to see me!" Rebus said vexedly.
"Dad, if you're like this, there's no point in living," Barbara sighed.
Rebus gulped down a cup of wine, "Darling, you don't understand …" Looking at yourself in the mirror, living is a kind of torture … "
At this moment, Rebus saw Sylvie, who was dressed in a grey robe, and Auland, who was dressed in casual clothes, walking over from the other side of the pool.
"Sylvie!" What the hell are you doing!? "Rebus suddenly stood up.
"Mr. Rebus, I don't understand why you're yelling at me," Sylvie said coldly.
Rebus said angrily, "You don't have to play dumb! I've already kept my promise. I've already spent all the money I should have spent, and all the effort I should have spent. In order to help you find the ingredients for the Elixir of Life, I spent a lot of money to create the Asura's Association.
Could it be that after doing so much, I still can't see the Armageddon Shakyamuni!? It was said that the Armageddon Shakyamuni would teach me how to maintain my youth, but what happened in the end!?
Sylvie said with a gloomy face, "The Asura's Association is not your credit. You only paid the money, but the ones who really did it were me and the Asura King. If I didn't send people to secretly support and train you, your Asura's Association would have been exterminated by some organization like the Dragon Soul.
As for what you said, throwing money and putting in effort … Yes, you did spend money and put in effort, but what results do you have to show off?
Back then, after the Sai Te Conference, he swore to me that he would get rid of this trouble, Lucifer … In the end, Lucifer was still alive and well. Instead, he knew more secrets!
What have you been spending your money on? Could it be that the people you found are all as pig-headed as you!? "
When Rebus heard this, he became angry, "What does this have to do with me? Do you think I want to do this? Wasn't it because the rest of the club believed in that crazy woman, the Elephant God!?
That woman cheated me of my money, but she didn't kill Lucifer. Now that she has disappeared, I am also a victim!
"When Auland heard this, he frowned and said," What did you say? The elephant god disappeared?
"Rebus gritted his teeth and said," That woman took a lot of money from me and cheated a lot from the other members. Then, she disappeared with the 'lighthouse element' that she found. Our club has already searched the world for her!
