A black MPV was parked by the roadside.
Inside the car, Kieran and the scrawny man were sitting opposite each other.
Beside the scrawny man were two men with guns, their muzzles pointed at Kieran.
"I hope what you said is true!
Otherwise, you'll know what happens to those who lie to Mr. G! "
The scrawny man said.
"Yeah!"
Kieran nodded without saying anything else.
He was sure that the fifth victim was still around.
The first three victims, Sidney, Conti, and Paul, had all been killed consecutively.
Only the fourth victim, Redecker, had been found yesterday.
It wasn't because Sphendix had found their conscience.
It was because Leonard had taken one of the items needed to set up the magic circle.
Now that they had gotten the item back, the key was to complete the magic circle.
Kieran was sure that Sphendix would not wait any longer.
After all, all the elements had been completed.
The casting item, the fermenting pain, and the completion of the magic circle.
More precisely, the completion of the basic structure of the magic circle: the Reverse Pentagram!
The Reverse Pentagram was one of the basic structures of a magic circle. It was the most well-known and the most widely used one.
Because it was simple, easy to learn, and easy to master.
As long as it was drawn correctly and provided enough pain, panic, and despair to be converted, the rune could be activated and the caster's goal would be achieved.
That was why Sphendix had decided to use the beasts to eat humans.
They wanted to provide enough pain, panic, and despair to power the magic circle.
What was the point of using pain, panic, and despair to power the magic circle?
It had nothing to do with happiness, happiness, or hope.
Kieran understood that since he was at Master Level.
"Since I'm using a city to set up the Reverse Pentagram, the conversion circle shouldn't be too small.
In order to increase the success rate, the conversion circle must be completed at the same time as the basic magic circle is completed.
So... Where is the conversion circle? "
Kieran was deep in thought.
The conversion circle was the second basic structure of a magic circle.
The simplest example was the Grand Demonic Heptagram, which consisted of an inner and an outer circle. Between the two circles was a positive and negative pentagram and rune.
The main and reverse pentagrams were like the reverse pentagrams in front of him, which provided 'power'.
The inner circle and the outer circle were the conversion arrays.
He channeled this energy into the runes between the positive and negative pentagrams.
In the end. Spellcasters used runes to cast spells.
As for the scorpion pattern?
Kieran guessed that it was a supplementary method to speed up the conversion or increase the effectiveness of the spell.
Of course, this was just Kieran's guess.
Kieran couldn't guarantee it either.
Because … It was too complicated. Kieran's proficiency level did not allow him to be omniscient.
In fact, even determining the location of the Reverse Pentagram Conversion Formation in front of him was extremely difficult.
However, Kieran was certain about the existence of this conversion formation.
Due to his limited knowledge, Kieran was unable to accurately set up a magic array. However, after reaching the Proficiency Level, he had gained a considerable understanding of the operation of magic arrays, or rather, the entire spellcasting process.
First, a certain basic magic array.
Second, a suitable conversion magic array.
Thirdly, there was the addition of suitable runes.
There would also be the necessary supplementary items and the incantation to activate the magic array.
However, such an understanding did not help solve the problem at hand.
Quite the opposite. Kieran's heart was a little anxious.
If such a huge negative energy magic array were to be truly activated, what would it look like?
Kieran dared not imagine it.
At the same time. His heart was filled with doubts.
This was only his third official dungeon. According to Lawless, as the dungeon entries increased, the difficulty would increase.
Why did he realize that this dungeon was even harder than the previous team dungeon?
The previous team dungeon had an average difficulty of four dungeons.
And this was only the third time.
"Did I miss out on some important information?"
Kieran thought unconsciously.
Bang! Bang!
While Kieran was deep in thought, he was interrupted by knocks on the window.
The skinny man rolled down the window.
"Found it!
It's in the back alley! "
A tall buff man reported.
The scrawny man looked at Kieran with an astonished gaze.
Then... Suspicion appeared on his face.
"You didn't set this up beforehand, did you?"
The skinny man said.
"Let's go to the scene and find out!
You've recorded four cases of beasts eating people. Is this one real or fake? You'll be able to tell! "
Kieran opened the car door and got out.
The skinny man did not stop Kieran.
Because... Just like what Kieran had said, he could tell if it was real or fake with his four previous experiences.
The skinny man asked his men to lead the way and followed Kieran. Mr. G's men, who were searching for the bodies, also heard the news and gathered around.
Hundreds of people gathered together, which was very eye-catching.
Especially Kieran, who was wanted by Sphendix, it was even more eye-catching.
However, neither the police nor the bounty hunters dared to act rashly.
All they did was stare at Kieran, their eyes burning with passion.
However, when the skinny man walked out from the crowd and stood beside Kieran, his burning gaze turned into shock.
Then, their expressions changed, and they walked away with their heads down.
They had completely ignored Kieran.
Kent!
Mr. G's right-hand man!
Those who were familiar with the name and its origin had already sensed that something was wrong at this time.
Could it be that Sphendix and Mr. G were fighting each other openly and covertly again?
When the thought popped up in their minds, the bounty hunters who had gathered for Kieran left even faster.
Even the police officers.
Orders from their superiors? A huge bounty?
Nothing was more important than their lives.
They did not want to get involved in the war between the two giants.
One wrong move and they would be smashed to pieces!
A few young officers with a sense of justice were forced into the police cars by their older colleagues.
After a few breaths, only Mr. G's men were left on the street, except for Kieran.
The skinny man seemed to have gotten used to it.
Kieran shrugged.
He was not surprised. Larry had told him a lot about Mr. G's power and influence.
Kieran arrived at the back alley without a hitch.
It was not a narrow alley with dirty water flowing everywhere.
Quite the contrary, it was clean and had street lights. If it had not been so secluded, it would have been crowded with people.
Kieran saw the body under the street lights in the middle of the back alley.
It was badly mutilated.
Most of the muscles and fat had been eaten, and this time, even the head had been bitten off.
The skinny man went up to check the body.
After a while, the scrawny man turned around and looked at Kieran with a strange gaze.
"How did you know?"
The skinny man asked.
"Can I have a look?"
Kieran did not answer. Instead, he asked.
The skinny man did not stop him. He stepped aside.
Kieran's accurate guess had proved his value.
Although he was curious about how Kieran knew, it did not stop him from carrying out Mr. G's order. If it was real, he would cooperate with Kieran. If it was fake, he would kill Kieran.
Kieran squatted down in front of the body, which looked like a pile of minced meat.
Judging from the remaining half of the head, it was a woman. If the head was whole, the face would be pretty, but now …
A normal person would be considered strong if they did not vomit.
Kieran did not have any problem checking the body carefully.
He had gotten used to this kind of scene.
Huh!
Suddenly, Kieran noticed something after a careful inspection.
