At this time, Elvin thought back to what Levina said just now and realized:
"There was indeed a Man Killer Fiend in the dungeon massacre, but I'm not sure if it was the Man Killer Fiend that killed all the Rampagers, or if one of the Rampagers turned into a Man Killer Fiend?
And Wark Wales, who has a grudge against me, was also a Rampager in the dungeon at that time. Then, was he one of the victims, or the host? Anything is possible … "
When he entered the school, Wark Wales challenged the officers of the short training class at the school gate because he was dissatisfied with the prejudice and suppression from the higher-ups, to prove his ability and the school's blindness!
But due to some kind of evil ritual, he lost control and was stopped by Elvin, after he lost the ability to resist, he was handed over to the school guards. Later on, as Her Royal Highness said, at some point, he was transferred to the Crowmen's underground prison.
Elvin also heard the story of Wark and the Wales family from Crail, so he didn't know whether to sympathize with them or hate them. The power of the Evil God Spying eventually led to the destruction of the entire family, and even caused the "Man Killer Fiend" incident eight years ago, so they had no one to blame but themselves.
Now that they're dead, Elvin didn't want to stand on the moral high ground and judge them.
But this incident was clearly left behind by the Wales family from eight years ago. If it wasn't for them, the "Box of Dead Souls" wouldn't exist, the "Man Killer Fiend" wouldn't have wreaked havoc, and there wouldn't have been a series of tragedies.
Even if Wark didn't lose control, he would've been used as a scapegoat by the higher-ups and suffer the wrath of countless people.
Combined with the incident from eight years ago and this dungeon massacre, people couldn't help but suspect the deeper reason why this last descendant of the Wales family was able to survive all those years ago.
Finally.
Even if his prophecy came true, and Wark Wales really did appear as a "Man Killer Fiend", he wouldn't mind giving this pitiful family a perfect ending!
He opened the report.
Other than Crail, the rest of them were shocked to find out that what was recorded was the investigation and analysis of the "Man Killer Fiend" incident by the "Violet Eyes" witchcraft association that they belonged to.
It was obvious that the information provided by Violet Eyes was much deeper into the mystical realm and closer to the truth.
The God of Opera, Purcell, was also a kind god who loved peace and was dedicated to bringing happiness and joy to the people hundreds of years ago.
In that "special" age, he invented the opera and many other artistic activities. Many epics praising justice and heroes were put on the stage, bringing prosperity to the people's spiritual life and guiding the people's values. At the very least, the main theme had always been positive.
But over time, he sadly discovered that his efforts did not make humans more peace-loving and righteous! Wars, plundering, massacres, and atrocities were happening all over the world. Day after day, year after year, the tragedy in reality kept repeating itself without any change!
Finally, he had great doubts about his own path and his spirituality collapsed, completely falling!
After falling, the evil god went to the other extreme, from his love for comedy, he began to chase after tragedy!
He even went to the stage himself, wantonly creating disasters among the humans, directing one tragedy after another! He made the mortals suffer, miserable, and hopeless. At this time, he believed that only unforgettable pain could make the mortals realize their mistakes and return to the path that God had guided them to!
But soon, even this dignified cover was gone. He began to use tragedy as a goal, not a means to guide people to do good.
The reason was very practical, because of power!
Without any bottom line, he wantonly created one tragedy after another. The more miserable the tragedy of the mortals, the stronger the negative emotions, and the more power he could draw from it.
He believed that when he had enough power, or even break through the demigod status to become a True God, he would be able to transform this ugly world according to his original idea.
However, before he could gather enough power, the reckless Purcell had already attracted the attention of the True God.
Because of the eternal nature of divinity, it could not be completely destroyed. Until he was sealed by an angel from the Church of the Goddess, that era filled with pain and tragedy finally came to an end.
And the location of the seal was, as expected, a barren land many years ago, and now … New Haven!
"There's an evil god sealed in our city?!!!"
The few young people exclaimed at the same time! Elvin felt as if he suddenly found out one day that there was a nuclear arsenal hidden in the basement of his house that could explode at any time …
If the truth of the "Man Killer Fiend" incident was still allowed to be spread to a limited extent, then the shocking secret of the "Evil God's sealed place" would definitely need to be restricted.
They did not dare to imagine, if this secret were to be spread, this city would attract the malicious eyes of countless people with bad intentions!
Just as Her Royal Highness said, the "Man Killer Fiends" wreaking havoc now was just an insignificant facade.
Under the command of the "Box of Dead Souls", through targeted killings, they created misfortune for each and every family. Parents lost their children, women lost their husbands, children lost their fathers and mothers. Their methods were cruel, causing the entire city to be immersed in pain, sorrow, and anger.
These extreme negative emotions accumulated bit by bit, creating a special domain that covered the entire New Haven, and finally reached the point where it could summon the Evil God Purcell.
Although the "Man Killer Fiends'" power growth had been reset, as long as the "Box of Dead Souls" was not found, they would sooner or later revive and start killing people again.
So, the "Man Killer Fiends" wreaking havoc was nothing.
Using these sorrowful and painful emotions to summon the Evil God was the true purpose of the "Box of Dead Souls"!
At this moment, they finally understood what the Princess meant by "the greatest danger", and also why Her Highness personally told them this secret. But, maybe they would rather not know …
Haha, the big boss could be the Evil God?!!!
"The principal must know the truth! Why hasn't he made a move yet? Where are the Great Knight in the fleet? The Bishop of the Church? Shouldn't they be the most anxious right now?! "
These questions echoed in everyone's mind. It's not that we're afraid of death, it's just that our small arms and legs can't bear the terrifying consequences!
But no one could give them an answer.
After a long period of silence.
"Umm, do you think we should still make a move today?"
Although Anthony was asking everyone, his eyes were staring straight at Elvin.
"Running away won't solve the problem."
His reason was simple. The status of a Demigod already gave the Evil God Purcell the essence of a God that couldn't be looked directly at, if he really did descend, the entire New Haven would be destroyed in a single day.
There was only one way to avoid facing the Evil God Purcell:
"Find the last" Man Killer Fiend "and the" Box of Dead Souls "one step ahead, and end this tragedy once and for all!"
.....
Very quickly, the night of the seventh day had arrived.
New Haven, on a deserted and uninhabited beach.
A tall 'young man' whose arms were extraordinarily long but whose back was hunched was holding a dark wooden box and staring at the ocean far away.
Behind him, a strange figure with three black holes on his face and blood-red aura shrouding him let out a silent roar towards the sky.
The outside world didn't notice anything, but something tangible spread out with this roar.
Swoosh!
Unknowingly, under the slightly red moonlight, the sparkling waves in his field of vision were also dyed with the color of blood. At this moment, the sea seemed to have become a door leading to a different world. No one knew what kind of strange things were hidden under the deep water.
Splash — —
Very quickly, turbid waves began to surge under the water. Then, as if breaking free from shackles, three consecutive sounds of chains breaking could be heard.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Under the water, a huge shadow quickly rose up. First, it was a black mast with scorched marks, then a black and yellow tattered sail, and finally, with a loud bang, a huge ship burst out of the water.
Not only did this ship have sails, it also had oars on both sides, obviously it could still be rowed even when there was no wind. However, in terms of shape, it looked more like an ancient river boat than a sea-going boat.
The entire sailboat was covered with traces of the raging fire. There were at least a dozen large black holes on the deck and the damaged hull. There were also barnacles, tube worms, moss worms, mussels, algae, and other appendages growing on the surface of the ship.
If it was a normal ship that was damaged to this extent, it would have sunk a long time ago, but it just magically floated up from the bottom of the water. Obviously, other than the ship itself, there was a mysterious force at work.
"Oh! The 'Grand Theater' has finally seen the light of day again! "
It was the same chant that gave people goosebumps that came from the Dead Soul Box.
"Those laughable fellows thought that I did nothing after staying silent for eight years? They thought that I could easily end the 'Man Killer Fiend's killing journey? As long as you're on this ship, no one can stop me! Ahahaha … "
Obviously, this "Specter Ship" had long become the lair of the "Dead Soul Box". The leader of the sea hunters, Stanley, did not guess wrong, the "Dead Soul Box" was their client.
And the original recipient was none other than Wark Wales …
After the fallen God of Opera failed to descend eight years ago, the "Dead Soul Box" had been hiding in this sunken ship. As it swam at the bottom of the sea, it used the power of the Evil God to continuously modify it.
Its original form was a coastal performance ship, the "Moving Water Theater" that was destroyed by pirates, but under the "Dead Soul Box's" modification, it had become a "Specter Ship" in reality — the "Grand Theater"!
"Ahahaha, Mr. Wark, please board your stage!"
