Wang Erde stood up with a swoosh, his expression solemn as he looked at the shadow on the table that seemed to have come alive in an instant.
Ordinary people wouldn't notice this subtle change at all. When the water in the cup splashed on the shadow, the shadow seemed to struggle for a moment, but it quickly disappeared.
Even if they saw it, most people, including Extraordinaries, wouldn't understand why.
However, Wang Erde was an extremely professional Dark Sorcerer, and he had some understanding of the rare and unpopular knowledge of the Shadow Realm.
With his current strength, there were only a few extraordinary creatures that could appear right under his nose without him noticing their aura, apart from the existence of gods.
And the shadow creatures happened to be one of them.
"Someone used the shadow creatures to poison this cup of water. Fortunately, Boss Lin came to visit today and gave them a taste of their own medicine. Otherwise, even I would've been poisoned."
"No, no, no. Boss Lin must've known about it long ago, which is why he came to save me. At the same time, he also taught me the correct method of sacrifice and gave me a reminder …"
Wang Erde's gratitude towards Lin Jie could not be any greater. Including this time, he had been saved twice, and his desire to repay him grew even deeper.
But then he had another question, "But the Shadow Realm shouldn't be connected to the real world. How could the shadow creatures be affected by the poison in the water?"
Moreover, at that moment, there was a trace of the smell of blood coming from the shadow. This was impossible. Shadow creatures were made of shadows, and they didn't have flesh and blood. How could there be a smell of blood? Remember the URL: m.9biquge.com.
This didn't make sense!
Wang Erde's eyes darkened as he stared at the shadow fragment. He already had a guess in his mind, "This means that it wasn't someone who controlled the shadow creatures, but someone who used them for a synthesis experiment."
As a Dark Magus who was quite accomplished in the field of creation, Wang Erde knew very well how dangerous and crude this kind of synthesis was. The synthesizer did not even consider the rationality of the process, and the synthesized products were probably consumables that did not have a long lifespan.
"But in terms of creativity, it's not bad, and it's used for assassination … If this thing can be mass-produced, the efficiency will probably be very high. Over the years, there have been cases of high-level Extraordinaires being assassinated for no reason without leaving a trace. Could it be that they were poisoned by this shadow compound? Is this the true identity of the so-called 'Shadow Assassins'?"
Wang Erde looked at the glass shards with a thoughtful expression, which made Lin Jie feel even more embarrassed.
Cough cough … It wasn't his fault that something like this happened!
Who would have thought that when he threw a coin, it would coincidentally hit the glass? Moreover, the glass was so weak that it broke into pieces after being hit by a coin. Was the coin too hard, or was the glass too fragile?!
This was great. He had only wanted to control his strength and throw out a "misfortune" to persuade Lao Wang not to go. But in the end, such a mishap occurred. The "misfortune" was thrown out, but it bounced off the glass. It definitely could not be counted.
Moreover, it was rare for him to go out and visit a guest's house, saying that he wanted to throw a coin for divination, but in the end, he smashed a glass. This situation was too embarrassing!
More importantly, Wang Erde's expression was so ugly, so he probably wouldn't ask him to pay for it …
"Cough, cough cough … Wang Erde, this is purely an accident, a coincidence, a coincidence. I didn't expect this to happen, and you didn't expect it either, right? It seems that this coin is quite effective, I really feel very unlucky … Sigh, forget it, let's just forget about the result this time. Let's try again. "
Lin Jie walked over awkwardly to pick up the coin that had rolled to the side. As he patted the dust off the coin, he tried to change the topic. "By the way, your old friend Yue Sefu found traces of you staying on Street 52 and is looking for you. Are you still going to keep hiding from him?"
He believed that he would be more interested in his old friend's affairs … At least, he would be more interested than a broken glass!
Wang Erde stretched out his hand, and a corner of the sacrificial knife slid out from his sleeve. The tip of the knife touched the water and shadow on the table, and the complex patterns on the knife glowed red, absorbing the residual toxins in the water.
For a black wizard, the sacrificial knife was an indispensable casting tool. Whether it was a sacrifice, an attack, an enchantment, or other spells, they all needed to be used.
He used the sacrificial knife as a medium to analyze and store the toxins in the water. He quickly understood that this was the "Sound of Doomsday", known as the spellcaster's nightmare.
Spellcasters often used aether to enhance their intelligence, and the activity and sensitivity of their brains were several times that of ordinary Extraordinaries. If they were touched by the Sound of Doomsday, they would almost certainly die, and it would be an extremely painful death.
[How vicious …]
To be able to do this, he must be a thorn in the opponent's side. He had been silent for so many years, and the only possible fuse was to lead He Lisi, the White Wolf, and the Crimson Sect to destruction.
This matter was not simple, and there was someone behind it.
It was a pity that the Shadow Assassin was directly bathed in the Sound of Doomsday by Boss Lin's Coin of Fate. He probably didn't have any rationality left, or else he could be interrogated.
Wang Erde narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his dark green snake eyes.
When he heard Lin Jie's words, he opened his mouth and revealed a smile. "Yue Sefu, ah. That's a name I haven't heard in a long time. I didn't hide from him. After all, we've known each other for so many years, and we'll meet eventually. It's just that now is not the time. When there is time, we still have to settle the score from the past …"
As expected, Old Wang was still angry at Yue Sefu.
Although he didn't know why they had a conflict, it was probably quite serious, and he was still brooding about it.
But the main point was … the topic had changed!
Lin Jie secretly heaved a sigh of relief and walked back to sit down. He looked around and found a rag placed under the coffee table. He carefully wiped away the glass shards on the table and threw them into the rubbish bin. "It's been so many years. Some things should be put aside. As a person, being happy is the most important."
Wang Erde put away his sword and nodded. "I understand. You're right. As long as he doesn't come to find me, I won't take the initiative to find him. But if he comes, I can't just sit and wait for my death."
As expected, Boss Lin didn't want to have one less customer. After all, the one who had summoned the Candela Spirit back then was probably the demon sword from Yue Sefu.
But the cause of the conflict wasn't him. The Miyie Tower had probably already detected his tracks. Perhaps he would be able to confront his old friend again very soon.
Lin Jie also understood that the conflict between these two old friends couldn't be resolved with just a few words, but … it was good that the topic had changed.
He still had a question in his heart. "That's right, you were at Street 52 back then …"
… What were you doing after staying there for so long?
Before Lin Jie could finish his sentence, Wang Erde became excited. "I'll show you my results now. I definitely won't let you down!"
A hair-raising sound came from behind the wall. It was accompanied by the licking and gnawing sounds of wild beasts, followed by a terrifying low growl.
"Awoo … Woof!"
