"Am I crazy? Sucking the blood of the Dragoness of Calamity Flames? "
Kevin Nell retracted his fangs, which had extended beyond his lips, and the red light in his eyes gradually receded. "I am just lamenting. Don't be too nervous, Kalise. I do not want to be burned to death by Her Highness' Calamity Flames."
"It's naturally for the best that you understand this!"
Kalise Jakes gave a light harrumph before looking around to inspect the magic arrays on the walls. "It looks like it has been completed, right? Have you checked it carefully? We only have one chance. This magic ritual cannot afford to make any mistakes. "
"Absolutely safe! Have you forgotten my nickname? The Meticulous Kevin. Before this, I had already checked it three times. However … "
Kevin's voice faltered slightly. "Are you really going to do this? Truth be told, at this time of the year, I really do not recommend doing this. Three days after reaching the target, her negative emotions have fallen below the threshold again. I do not know why, but her will has become abnormally strong. Even our Illusionist is unable to do anything to her. I am a bit worried … "
"Worried about what?"
Kalise Jakes already knew the answer. "Worried that the Egg of Resurrection will not be able to hatch? Or that after it hatches, our Lady Princess will be unable to shatter and replace her consciousness? "
"I am not worried about that. How can a mortal's soul resist the might of a demigod Dragoness? But this body is hers, after all. What I am worried about is that if any remnant will is left behind, it will affect Her Highness' control over her body. In a battle between Legends, or even Demigods, this will become Her Highness' weakness. "
Kevin Nell frowned and said, "The hatching is also a problem. By borrowing the power of the Day of the Ten Thousand Saints, it is indeed possible to lower the threshold for the Egg of Resurrection to hatch, greatly reducing the time required. However, if Hazel's body is still resisting her fate, it will affect the Egg of Resurrection's ability to absorb the blood pool's energy. "
"I can roughly guess the consequences."
Kalise Jakes sighed. "However, Kevin, we are running out of time. As you know, that kid named André has already put us in a difficult position. Under his command, he has gathered a large number of people that we find difficult to deal with. I've also received insider information that the New Church of Light and the FBI have learned of our plan to resurrect the princess. So, we have no other choice. If we can't successfully resurrect the princess on Halloween, then we may not have another suitable opportunity for three to five years. That also means that all our previous efforts will be for naught. "
Kevin Nelle's expression gradually turned grave. "Is the situation that serious?"
"It will only be more severe than you can imagine."
A resolute look flashed in Kalise Jakes's eyes. "Kevin, if we do not want to affect the headquarters' follow-up plans, the resurrection of the Calamity Dragon Lady is imperative. She is one of our most important bargaining chips and combat strength. At this time, even if it might cause His Highness's body to be in danger, he had no choice but to do so. At most, we'll think of a way to make up for it in the future. We still have a way to deal with this girl's remnant will, right? "
"Alright."
Kevin Nelle's expression was helpless. "I will use a set of Soul Suppressing Nails on her. This can effectively suppress Hazel's soul and will. This is actually not beneficial to the Egg of Resurrection's ability to absorb energy from the blood pool, but it will be beneficial for Her Highness to control this body. However, we don't have an artifact like the Soul Suppressing Nails in our inventory. I can only offer it to you personally. After this, you have to ask the higher-ups to compensate me. "
"Since you have a way, then do it."
Kalise Jakes laughed. "The Dragon Witch Cult never mistreats its believers who have contributed to the cult. However, you have to be careful not to lose control."
"This is very dangerous. I'll try my best."
Kevin Nelle's fangs protruded once more. Then, he turned into countless bats and arrived at the high platform in the center. He took out a set of twelve long black nails and drove them into Hazel's abdomen one by one. Five of them even pierced into Hazel's head, cleverly avoiding the brain and piercing into Hazel's skull.
This brought great pain to the young girl. Her delicate face gradually contorted beyond recognition. She was still struggling with all her might, tugging at the chains and nails in her limbs, causing even more blood to flow out.
However, when the last black nail pierced into her neck, Hazel's body suddenly froze. Her eyes were blank and lifeless. She seemed to be dead, not moving at all.
"She's practically tempting me."
Kevin Nelle looked greedily and reluctantly at the blood that flowed out of Hazel's body. Then, with great difficulty, he turned into thousands of bats and returned to Kalise Jakes's side.
"Her blood is indeed very fragrant and sweet. It's challenging my ability to control it …"
At this moment, the door behind them suddenly opened. Edwin Antonio walked in with a group of people wearing black robes and dragon masks of various colors.
"You're finally here."
Kalise Jakes greeted them with a smile. Then, he put his hand on his chest and bowed to these people. "The High Priest of the Dragon Witch Cult, Kalise Aman, welcomes all of you on behalf of the Cult. According to our previous agreement, before the great Calamity Dragoness is resurrected, we have invited you to enjoy the Calamity Blood Feast. "
"It's a bit sudden, Kalise. But I have a rough understanding of your situation. You've been forced into a corner by that little one who suddenly rose up, haven't you?"
It was a man with a black dragon mask among the crowd. "What I want to know is, how confident are you now? You should know that the FBI and the New Light Church will launch an operation against you at any time. They may have already found out about this location. "
"It's precisely because we've anticipated this that we've brought forward the plan to Halloween."
Kalise Jakes smiled. "We should still have time. As long as you help us delay them according to the plan, then the New Light Church, the FBI, and other government agencies won't be able to execute our plan immediately. We have to thank the bureaucracy of this country. Otherwise, my twelve years of hard work would have come to an end. "
"But there's still Andre Lee Wildenstein."
The voice was hoarse and old, and it came from the mouth of another black-robed man: "The management committee of the magic tower has already given him the authorization to use the magic tower array, and his subordinates have also added a level seventeen Templar. He could appear here at any time, High Priest Kalise Aman. "
"With all due respect …"
Professor Kevin Neil said with some dissatisfaction, "The only reason that kid has forced us to this point is because you've indulged him."
This sentence, however, did not elicit any response. The people with dragon faces all looked at Kevin Nelle with cold and mocking gazes.
Even Edwin Antonio and Kalise Jakes did not think much of it. Although the "distinguished guests" in front of them were all powerful figures in Atlanta, they weren't at the top of the hierarchy. Under the circumstances where they had to consider their identities and future troubles, they had indeed done their best to help them cover up the resurrection of the Calamity Flame Dragon Lady until today.
"Don't worry, everyone. If it's just that lucky André, I think we still have the ability to deal with him."
As Kalise Jakes said this, his expression changed slightly. He looked up and said, "Look, they're already here …"
