Eagle!
Paper ball!
Creepy smiley face!
Hilton!
The guardians!
The domed clock tower!
…
Looking at Hilton's glowing red creepy smiley face amidst the blazing flames, all the clues pieced together to form a complete picture.
"So that's how it is!
Selection, test, acceptance … "
Kieran muttered to himself softly.
He was quite confident that if he had entered the door inside the domed clock tower, he might have become a guardian of the Witch's Legacy.
But …
Was this kind of selection random?
Kieran thought of the eagle and quickly discarded the thought from his mind.
That eagle was obviously tamed.
How could it be random for an eagle with traces of taming?
It could only be the tamer's choice.
Then who was the tamer?
An impossible thought appeared in Kieran's mind.
"Got it?
It's too late!
I will make you pay for Tyler's death! "
Hilton laughed coldly as he looked at Kieran who was deep in thought.
The ten javelins that surrounded Kieran were thrust towards Kieran.
Hilton stared at Kieran.
He wanted to see Kieran fall into a pool of blood and die a horrible death.
But what happened next left Hilton dumbfounded.
All ten javelins hit their target.
However, it was all to no avail.
The javelins that could easily pierce through Extreme defense couldn't even touch Kieran's skin. They were all useless against that inconspicuous black leather armor.
"H-How is this possible?!"
Hilton stuttered and looked at Kieran further away in disbelief.
Then, fear filled his heart.
Hilton could feel a sharp energy brewing in his body.
"Wait …"
Bang!
Hilton opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but the counterattack from [Devourer Shadow Mail] and [Devour Strike] exploded.
Immediately, a bloody hole that pierced through Hilton's chest and back appeared.
Then, when [Wrath of Devourer] that ignored defense exploded, an unstoppable impact crashed onto Hilton's body.
Crack, crack.
In Hilton's defenseless body, the sounds of bones shattering, muscles tearing, and organs shattering rang out continuously.
When everything stopped, Heaton was no longer breathing.
[You've killed player Hilton!]
[Treated as self-defense through authentication]
[Classified as an Honor Kill!]
[You will receive all the Points and Skill Points of the player …]
[Player has a total of 200000 Points and 30 Skill Points]
[Received the player's house key]
[You've acquired the right to use the player's house]
[All the player's belongings will be returned to their room …]
[Honor Kills: 94]
…
As usual, the body disintegrated into white light again but unlike before, the strange smiley face with the red lines around its right hand didn't vanish. Instead, it attached itself to Kieran's right hand as fast as a sudden clap of thunder.
Then, an incomparably pure power began to fuse into Kieran's body.
Dawn Force.
Plague Force.
Devil Force.
Cardinal Sins Force.
Saint Thorns Force.
Five different types of energy started to circulate faster at that very moment.
Kieran could clearly see the five types of energy with different luster and aura surging in his body in their own ways.
The runes that were imprinted in his body by the Transcendent Basic Skills lit up at an unprecedented speed. The darkness and chaos also retreated rapidly.
Deep inside his body, the darkness and chaos that couldn't be dispelled in the past also started to slowly fade away.
However, after dissipating a little, the pure energy was exhausted, and the five completely different energies returned to their original calmness.
Although there weren't any substantial changes, Kieran was stunned when he saw the changes in his body.
This was the first time he had experienced such an enhancement other than Constitution Advance Rank!
"What?!
What did I absorb just now? "
"The power from the smiley face?"
"No!"
"That so-called competitor, Tyler also had a smiley face but he didn't give me similar powers. Could it be that the smiley face is different as well?"
"Yes!
It is different! "
"Tyler is just a competitor, he wasn't officially accepted by the guardians but Hilton is different!"
"Hilton isn't just an official member, he's also a small leader!"
Soon enough, Kieran found the difference between the two but he wasn't excited because of the discovery. Instead, he fell into deep thought.
Kieran didn't believe he was the only one who accidentally discovered the effect of the smiley face.
There must be someone else who discovered it.
The most probable one would be the one who created the guardian organization of the Witch's Legacy.
If that person discovered the effect of the smiley face but still formed the organization, then his intentions weren't that simple.
And …
"How did this smiley face do what it did just now?"
Kieran stared at the tattoo-like mark on the back of his right hand and furrowed his brows.
Pro level [Mystical Knowledge] and the miscellaneous knowledge that he had seen in the dungeon world had all lost their effects in front of the smiley face.
In Kieran's eyes, the smiley face was surrounded by red lines.
Other than that, there was nothing else.
"Is the skill level not high enough?
Or do I need some kind of targeted skill? "
Kieran muttered to himself.
Up until this point, if Kieran still insisted that the strange smiley face was just a common tattoo, he would be running away from reality.
Whether it was the appearance of the smiley face or the scene just now, everything told Kieran that the strange smiley face was not a common one.
However, without any clues, continuing to think would only lead him to a dead end.
Kieran would not waste his time on such useless things.
He clicked on the private message and sent a private message to Rachel.
: Something happened.
Rachel: Did Hilton escape?
: No, before he could open his mouth, I accidentally killed him.
Rachel: …
Rachel: Are you showing off?
Rachel: You two are birds of a feather, even your way of showing off is the same!
Rachel: If it wasn't for that bastard Lawless sobering up beside me, I would've thought he hacked your account.
Rachel: Too bad, a clue broke just like that.
Rachel: But it's fine, I believe Karles will tell me more about the guardians.
…
Before Kieran could explain, Rachel sent out a series of replies to him.
Looking at Rachel's replies, Kieran believed that Rachel would not stop until Karles was squeezed dry of his last bit of value.
Of course, with the relationship between Kieran and Karles, Kieran was happy to see that happen.
Just when Kieran wanted to tell Rachel about more guardians, Wu sent him a message.
