Branck's expression turned ugly. He could feel a strange killing intent locking onto him. Any reaction of his body would be detected. He took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He believed that even if he didn't give the alarm, they would still be aware of the situation here. What he needed to do now was to stabilize the current situation, and it would be best if he could understand the enemy at the same time.
"You're in cahoots with the person outside, right?" Branck stared at Dean, "If I'm not wrong, you should be related to the witchcraft incident in Camp. What's your purpose? To kill me? Or do you want to get something from me? "
"It's easy to talk to a smart person." Dean smiled, "I heard that you have a tool called 'Thunder Filter'. Can I borrow it?"
Branck was startled, but he was relieved in his heart, "What Thunder Filter? I've never heard of it."
Dean shook his head, "I just praised you for being smart, and now you're panting. Do you think we didn't investigate in advance when we attacked your house and took such a big risk? Or are you deliberately stalling for time to wait for them to come and rescue you? "
Branck's face sank, "Even if the Thunder Filter is in my hands, I won't lend it to you. It's a top-level tool, a treasure that can't be copied. If it's broken, it'll be broken forever. No one knows how to repair it. Even I won't use it easily."
Dean looked at him seriously. Their eyes met. Branck also looked at Dean. His eyes were firm and unyielding.
"Alright!" Dean sighed and took the lead to move his eyes away.
Branck heaved a sigh of relief. He felt that he had the situation under control for the time being. However, in the next moment, a blood-curdling scream was heard. He looked towards the source of the scream, and his expression immediately changed. Furious, he abruptly stood up from his chair. He saw that the golden-haired youth by the window had a black blade piercing through his heart, nailing his entire body to the wall. The scream did not last for long before it abruptly stopped, and his head drooped down powerlessly.
"You!" Branck's face was pale. His eyes were wide open. Black mucus surged and quickly entered the Devil's Body.
But when the Devil's Body was halfway into the Devil's Body, a figure flashed in front of him. Dean's palm hit his shoulder. Branck felt as if his shoulder was broken. His whole body sank down.
The next moment, a touch of coldness and tingling came from his neck.
He slightly lowered his eyebrows. He saw that Dean's arm had turned into a sharp blade and was on his neck.
The black viscous liquid that was surging all over his body suddenly stopped. Then, like boiling water that had been extinguished, it slowly converged and sank.
"Your wife, daughter, grandchildren, and your own life are here. Who do you think is more important compared to the Thunder Filter?" Dean softly asked.
There was a trace of panic in the depths of his eyes. Dean was more terrible than he had imagined. It was the first time that he met someone who could force him to enter the Devil's body. The most important thing was that Dean didn't enter the Devil's body. How could he break out such a terrifying speed with just his human body?! The most important thing was that Dean. The Dean was not the Devil's Devil's Body.
Even if the Lord of Nile was here, he may not be able to save him!
Suddenly, the door of the room was knocked open. At the same time, the roof above Dean's head burst open and a figure jumped down. In addition, another person jumped into the window. In a blink of an eye, there were four people standing in the room, completely surrounding Dean. They were the remaining four of the eight guards who had been guarding Dean.
"Master!"
The four of them saw Branck who was held hostage by Dean and the blonde youth who was nailed to the windowsill. They didn't know that the enemy had broken into the room. If it wasn't for the blonde youth's scream, they wouldn't have known the situation here.
"The loyal dog is here." Dean glanced at the four of them and smiled: "Have you decided?"
Branck's face changed. After a moment, he took a deep breath and said: "I promise you!"
"Master!"
The four of them didn't know what Branck had promised. They couldn't help but call out to each other. They wanted to find a flaw to attack and rescue Branck.
Branck knew that the four of them couldn't save him from the hands of the Devil. He sighed: "Don't worry. I'll take him to get the thunder filter."
The four of them were startled. They knew Dean's purpose and started to slowly retreat.
Dean carried Branck out of the room and asked him to show them the way.
The four of them looked at each other after Dean left the room. Two of them followed from behind while the other two left from another exit. They were going to ambush the thunder filter before Dean did.
After a moment, Dean and Branck came to the basement of the castle. They passed through layers of traps. Under Branck's guidance, the traps were canceled in advance.
Finally, the two of them stopped in front of a secret room in the basement. The door of the secret room slowly rose and a magical instrument appeared in front of them.
"So this is the thunder filter?" There was a trace of surprise in Dean's eyes. The instrument was like a three-meter high globe. However, it wasn't the Earth that was embedded in the middle of the instrument but a circular ring. The edge of the metal ring was engraved with mysterious and complex runes. It looked like some kind of language. The ring and the tray of the instrument were connected by a cylindrical mirror. The cylindrical mirror could be bent to be vertical with the instrument.
The whole instrument didn't look complicated. In fact, it was quite simple. It was even more common than a microscope.
"This is the thunder filter you want." Branck's eyes were gloomy: "You can take it but you have to promise me that you won't cause trouble for my family."
Dean took him to the front of the thunder filter. He looked at it for a moment and asked: "How do I use this thing?"
Branck hesitated for a moment but still came forward to give him directions: "This is the switch. The thunder filter relies on electricity. But there is a battery inside. You can charge it after the battery is used up. This is the observation lens. This is the sample holder lens. This is the multiplier lens …"
Dean listened carefully. The thunder filter looked very simple. It looked like a simple metal ring. He didn't expect that there would be many small things on it. However, the overall operation wasn't complicated. It was similar to a microscope.
"Open it and let me see." Dean told Branck. He didn't do it himself. After all, there was electricity in the giant wall. Even if he was an abyss, he would be turned into ashes in front of the overload of voltage.
Branck sighed in his heart as he saw Dean being so cautious. But he didn't deceive Dean. He immediately started the operation and opened the thunder filter.
Hiss!
When the filter was opened, Dean saw that the metal ring was emitting electric light. The complex runes engraved around the metal ring flashed with mysterious blue light. It was like a circuit that lit up the entire metal ring. Soon, more and more electric light flashed inside the metal ring. It seemed that there was a specific magnetic field inside the ring that was pulling the flashing electric current.
It didn't take long for the electric current to form a large net inside the metal ring. It looked extremely shocking.
"You are going to observe a strand of hair." Branck pulled a silver hair from his head and threw it into the flashing electric current inside the metal ring. The silver hair was instantly hit by the electric current and turned into powder. At this time, Branck came to the observation lens next to the metal ring. He wasn't afraid of the flashing electric current. He moved his eyes to the cylinder and said: "Now you can see the composition of the hair. Do you want to take a look?"
Dean was startled. He didn't expect the use of the thunder filter to be like this. It was the first time that he heard that the object could be decomposed by electric current. Wouldn't the experiment be destroyed?
He didn't ask but looked through the observation lens according to Branck's words.
However, he did not approach it directly. Instead, he tried his best to observe it from a distance. Soon, he saw countless tiny moving balls in the observation mirror. They were pitch-black and looked like black grapes.
"Is this the structure of the hair?" Dean frowned slightly. He felt that the thunder filter wasn't very useful to him because he didn't know which layer of the hair he was looking at.
However, since he had succeeded, he didn't want to waste his effort.
"Turn it off." Dean said.
Branck immediately turned off the button. The flashing electric current inside the metal ring gradually decreased until it was extinguished. The secret room returned to darkness. There was no sound of electric current flashing.
"Where did this thing come from? From the ruins?" Dean tentatively reached out and touched the metal ring. It was a little warm. He estimated that it would get hot after a long time. He looked at the runes engraved on the ring. He suddenly felt that this thing didn't seem to be from the old era.
Indeed, Branck's words confirmed his conjecture. "It's said that it was found in an ancient civilization spaceship in the depths of the Demonic Abyss. It's well-preserved, but unfortunately, that ancient civilization spaceship seemed to have been destroyed. It's been in disrepair for many years and is now in tatters." At this point, even though he was in danger, Branck still felt that it was a pity.
"Sure enough, it belongs to those insects …" Dean's eyes flashed. Since the last time he saw the spaceship in the ice dragon's nest, he was basically sure that the insects came from another planet. They were able to cross the sea of stars to invade the earth. They must have mastered technology that humans didn't have. After all, human technology couldn't carry people out of the solar system before the destruction of the old era!
Dean thought that even if it was useless to him at present, it would have a very high research value.
"Is there any packaging?" Dean asked Branck.
Branck knew that this was the difficult part. "No. It takes several people to carry it carefully. Otherwise it may be damaged if there is a little bump. That's why I haven't moved this thing since it was brought here."
Dean slightly frowned and didn't say anything.
Branck secretly sneered in his heart. He guessed that Dean wouldn't have too many accomplices. He estimated that there were at most three people. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent only one person to lure his guards. In case of failure then the risk would be too great! Moreover, even if Dean had accomplices, he wouldn't dare to come over. His guards weren't vegetarians.
"Well, call your guards." Dean thought for a moment and said.
Branck was surprised: "Call them over?"
"Help carry it." Dean said.
Branck almost choked on his own saliva. He couldn't help but stare at Dean. But in the end he softened as he looked at Dean's unquestionable expression. He felt like he was being robbed by a dog. Not to mention that Dean wanted him to send people to help carry it? Was there such a thing? Was there?!
Dean left the underground chamber with Branck. He went to the door and looked at the three hidden guards. There were two guards outside the door who didn't hide their aura. He indifferently said: "All five of you come over."
The pupils of the three guards who were hiding in the dark shrank as they heard Dudian say out the number of people. Their eyes were full of shock. The three of them were the best at lurking among the guards. They didn't expect to be seen through by Dudian.
From smell? Life response? Heartbeat? Heat? They believed that all of this had been concealed. They were no different from rocks when they hid in the surroundings! Even in the devil's pit they were able to hide from the hunters of the abyss. But now they were seen through!
Branck's eyelids twitched. He only saw two guards but he knew that there must be an ambush in the dark. He didn't expect Dean to say it out loud. The last trace of hope in his heart was shattered.
"The one licking his lips, why don't you come out?" Dean opened his mouth again.
A young man who was hiding in the dark stiffened. He didn't dare to move. But soon, like a deflated ball, he slowly came out from the dark. If he still thought that Dean was deliberately blackmailing him, then his brain was really messed up.
The other two people hiding in the dark saw this and were shocked. They slowly walked out.
"You come and talk to them." Dean looked at the five people standing in front of him and said to Branck.
Branck's mouth slightly twitched. He resisted the urge to pinch Dean's neck. He gritted his teeth and said: "The five of you come with me to the secret chamber. Bring out the thunder filter and help him take it out."
The five of them were dumbfounded. They looked at each other in dismay. They suspected that their ears were playing tricks on them. But looking at Branck's constipated expression, they were convinced that Dean wasn't joking.
Ten minutes later, Dean held Branck hostage and walked out of the manor. The five guards behind them were carrying the thunder filter. Their movements were very careful. They didn't dare to let the thunder filter have any damage.
"It seems that I won't be able to wait for Lord Nile to come." Dean looked at the street outside the manor and said softly.
