Garcia looked at 'Lude' who walked out, his eyes were filled with unconcealed hatred.
The last time he went after 'Lude', he made a mistake and Palreynold wiped out the exploration team that Duyer nurtured meticulously. Although Professor Duyer didn't blame him too much, Garcia's position in Duyer's lab plummeted.
Just like this time, he wasn't on the list of names that Professor Duyer brought into the Mystic State!
It was something that had never happened before.
When Garcia got the news, he was in a daze.
Because he knew very well what this meant.
He would stay away from the center of power in Duyer's lab.
It was absolutely unacceptable to Garcia.
In his life plan, the future of Duyer's lab was his. Professor Duyer had hinted to him more than once, and because of that, he gave up on Theorate completely.
Now, something like this had happened.
Back off?
Impossible!
Theorate would never accept a traitor.
And if he wanted to move forward?
He had to make up for his mistakes!
He had to bring back the Index of Eat!
Only then could he redeem his position.
Therefore, even though he was heavily injured, Garcia never gave up on hunting down Lude and Palreynold.
Hard work paid off.
Garcia received a piece of news: a grocery store in an alley of E Block was the Sil Sect's secret information station.
After that, he sent his men to investigate the store multiple times and all of them verified the news.
After the news was verified, Garcia had his eyes glued to the store.
He knew Lude or Palreynold would show up at the store.
Regardless of which one was his target, Garcia hoped that Lude would show up at the store. It wasn't just because Lude was related to the Index of Eat, it was also because compared to the powerful Palreynold, Lude should be weaker.
It wasn't a baseless guess, it was Garcia's analysis based on the information he gathered.
Whether it was when Lude was in disguise or after his disguise was exposed by the First Seat freshman, Lude was used to hiding behind the scenes and strategizing. He rarely, if ever, engaged in a face-to-face battle.
Even though someone mentioned that Lude might be very powerful, Garcia thought about it for a while and tossed the possibility aside.
Garcia didn't think that a powerhouse would hold back and let Derton die in that situation.
On top of that, Garcia also assumed the dead Derton's position in the Sil Inner Sect should be higher than Lude, similar to Palreynold.
This was also in line with the fact that Lu De had joined Derton's laboratory and was led by Derton.
Of course, just in case, Garcia mobilized all the manpower in the laboratory and hired some helpers at a high price.
Then, Lu De appeared!
Just like what Garcia had expected.
Without any hesitation, Garcia started to deploy his men to surround the grocery store where his target was located.
Garcia's lips curled into a smile when he saw Lude walking out.
"My luck is really not bad."
"At first, I was worried that if it was Palreynold, my men wouldn't be able to handle it. But if it's you, it'll be a piece of cake for me."
Garcia took a deep breath and tried to speak in a calm tone.
However, his slightly trembling voice stated how excited he was.
That was right.
How could Garcia not be excited?
Only after losing it could one understand the preciousness of having it.
Love is the same.
Power is the same.
Both are poisons.
Once tainted, it would be incurable.
"I seem to be underestimated?"
Bloody Mary shrugged and glanced over the men surrounding the store.
There were quite a lot of them.
Strength?
It was too horrible to look at.
After leveling up from a High Demon to a Superior Demon, its strength had gone through a qualitative change. Plus, it was a special existence that mutated. As long as it didn't run into a powerful enemy that could turn it into ashes with a single strike, it was invincible.
Bloody Mary knew it like the back of its hand, so it was delighted about it.
However, Bloody Mary quickly thought of its boss.
The stronger it was, the more it would be squeezed dry by its boss.
Resist?
What a joke, Bloody Mary still wanted to live a few more years.
It knew how ruthless its boss was. Once it was deemed as an enemy, it would plunge one into despair.
There wouldn't be any detours.
There wouldn't be any detours.
Any detours or detours would be a smokescreen before its boss launched a stronger attack.
Therefore, Bloody Mary didn't want to become its boss' enemy.
Huu!
Bloody Mary heaved a heavy breath.
The smugness that had just emerged from the bottom of his heart disappeared in an instant.
Instead, it was replaced by a faint sense of sadness.
When the melancholy filled its heart, Bloody Mary gave up on the 'fun' part of its original plan. It decided to end it quickly and wait for the sun to rise, bask in the sunlight and provide warmth and comfort to its soul.
So, Bloody Mary raised its right hand and snapped its fingers.
Pak!
With the crisp snap of a finger, the faces of the people surrounding the area changed from ferocious hostility to dazed and lifeless. Some of them even started bleeding from their nostrils in the next moment, and they collapsed to the ground in the blink of an eye, losing their breath.
[Illusion]!
When Bloody Mary leveled up to a Superior Demon, its ability to create illusions that required authentication no lower than SSS Spirit and rank I Intuition. Although the authentication would decrease as the number of people increased, the crowd before Bloody Mary's eyes didn't exceed the authentication range.
Pak Pak Pak.
One after another, the men fell to the ground like dominoes.
Garcia was one of them.
As a matter of fact, Garcia was the first to fall.
The agitated young man couldn't resist Bloody Mary's [Illusion] at all, closing his eyes for the rest of his life.
The men who traveled with him?
Bloody Mary didn't plan to let them go.
There were already witnesses to the incident.
These men were useless.
After carefully looting the loot, Bloody Mary looked at the grocery store owner, who was in a daze since the beginning.
"Bring what you need, tell Ude what happened here, and then find a place to hide."
If it's possible, leave Theorate for now. "
Bloody Mary said.
"Yes, Lord Inner Sect."
The grocery store owner bowed respectfully.
Powerful strength was the easiest way to gain respect, and in front of a pile of bodies, the effect would be doubled.
When the grocery store owner straightened his back, Bloody Mary was already gone.
The grocery store owner was stunned, but when he saw the pile of bodies on the ground, the Sil Sect spy knew what he had to do.
He quickly turned around and returned to the grocery store. After informing Ude of everything that had happened here through the secret communication device, he brought along some necessities and entered the secret tunnel.
Five minutes after the grocery store owner left, Senile, Leonard, and a group of guards appeared at the grocery store after a few days of rest.
Looking at the pile of bodies on the ground, Senile, who had just finished his break, looked extremely ugly.
He didn't know why, but ever since he enrolled as a new student, he kept seeing this kind of scene.
"Damn it!"
Senile grumbled, but his actions weren't slow. He bent down and started to check the bodies one by one. Leonard, who worked closely with Senile, ordered most of the guards to lock down the scene and then brought two more guards to the grocery store.
Ten minutes later, Senile and Leonard stood in front of the grocery store.
"No one has any external wounds, so it should be some kind of illusory ability.
The grocery store is very clean, not a single clue was left behind. Although we found a secret passage, it's blocked. I've ordered my men to start digging, but it'll take some time. I don't think there's anything valuable on the other side of the passage. "
After a short conversation, Senile and Leonard saw a troubled expression on each other's face.
"You go inform Professor Tyrese.
"I'm looking around to see if I can find any valuable clues."
Senile told his friend before he started to search around the grocery store.
Leonard wasn't surprised since he knew his friend's habit, but when Leonard turned around, Senile's eyes started to flicker.
It was a flicker of hesitation.
In the end, it slowly turned into determination.
…
E-15 Mystic State.
A group of newbies who had just stepped into the Mystic State were enjoying the surprise of their harvest.
The elephant-sized Elephant-Boar fell to the ground after being hit by arrows imbued with mystical powers. Duyer 'er put down the bow in his hand and watched the newbies with a smile as they skinned and cut the meat in an orderly manner. Although some of them made mistakes, overall, it wasn't too bad.
However, there was a clumsy fella who managed to cut the tendon of the Elephant-Boar's front leg with a single slash.
It was the most delicious part of the Elephant-Boar.
Whether it was steamed or braised, the whole tendon would leave an endless aftertaste in one's mouth.
Duyer 'er frowned hard as he watched.
Especially at the end, when that fella made the same mistake twice in a row, Duyer 'er's patience was completely gone.
He called his assistant over.
"Kick him out of my team."
Duyer 'er ordered.
The assistant nodded and started to record the order.
Apart from the guy who was called out, whose face turned pale, the people around him turned a blind eye to it.
They were used to it.
People would always make mistakes.
Duyer 'er was no exception.
Therefore, he would give others three chances to make a mistake.
As long as it was within the three chances, the mistake would be forgiven, but once it exceeded three times, Duyer 'er would kick them out of the team without mercy.
"Professor, Garcia …"
After doing what he needed to do, the assistant looked at Duyer 'er, wanting to say something but hesitated.
"You are worried that I will kick Garcia out of the lab?"
Duyer 'er looked at the assistant with a smile.
The assistant didn't answer but the expression on his face said it all.
Duyer 'er shook his head slightly.
His principles would never change, not even when he met Garcia, whom he had high hopes for.
Fortunately, this was just Garcia's first mistake.
But to prevent Garcia from making more mistakes in the future …
Duyer 'er didn't allow Garcia to join the team for this Mystic State exploration.
Duyer knew Garcia, who seemed calm and courageous, wasn't as calm as others thought he was. A young man who had a smooth sailing life, how could he grow without experiencing setbacks?
How could Garcia, who hadn't reflected on himself, take over his lab?
"Don't worry, Garcia won't let me down."
Duyer 'er said.
However, the moment his words subsided, the high-powered communicator that he brought with him rang.
Although it was a modified high-powered communicator, it was impossible to communicate in the Mystic State. The only thing it could do was to send messages.
When Duyer 'er saw the words on the communicator, his calm face turned heavy.
Kacha!
The high-powered communicator in his hand was crushed just like that.
The assistant looked at the LCD screen on the ground, but it didn't shatter completely.
Garcia died during the hunt for Lude …
When he saw the words on the screen, the assistant's face turned pale.
…
Ude, the overseer of Sil Sect, was wearing a black mantle like a night owl, squatting down in the dense canopy.
He was looking at the brightly lit mansion further away.
It was the house of a direct descendant of Ryde Family.
The descendant was in charge of part of Ryde Family's business. Tonight, he had invited some of his business partners for a ball. It was to celebrate the success of the current collaboration and also to discuss the next stage of the business.
Naturally, under such a premise, the atmosphere was incomparably warm.
Even from his position, Ude could hear the cheers and laughter carried by the night breeze.
But soon, the cheers and laughter would turn into agonizing cries.
Ude curled his lips into a cold grin when he saw a few of the Sil Sect's capable members slowly approaching the mansion.
Since he had a clear target …
He wouldn't change his mind.
Or rather, Ude had no other choice in front of his only chance.
Wung!
Close to his body, the secret communication device vibrated.
Although he was in the middle of a mission, the overseer of Sil Sect quickly took out the secret communicator.
This was because he had only given this frequency to one person!
The spy hidden in Theorate!
Likewise, there was only one reason why the spy would use this frequency to contact him: the Sil Inner Sect!
Words appeared on the LCD screen.
With the help of the moonlight, the overseer of Sil Sect clearly saw the words. His heart skipped a beat.
He had a grudge against Ryde Family.
They were destroyed before.
An illusion that didn't fear numbers.
After combining all the information, a name appeared in the overseer's mind.
Arnold Sect!
Only Arnold Sect fit the description!
It was the only explanation for the cautiousness of the Sil Inner Sect and why the normal Sil Sect could only use items to compensate for their lack of core secret techniques!
Before he was fully prepared, he couldn't afford to be discovered by his former enemy!
"I see!
"Hill is just a name. My real identity is a member of the Arnold Sect!"
Ryde, eh?
Damn it! "
The overseer of Sil Sect had fully immersed himself in his role. Whenever he thought about how the Ryde Family had harmed the core members of Arnold Sect and robbed them of the wealth that they had accumulated over the years, especially when he thought about how Ryde Family prevented him from mastering the core secret techniques at his age, a bone-deep hatred rose in his heart.
Eagerly, the overseer of Sil Sect jumped down from the treetop and dashed towards the mansion.
