"So let's agree on this. When the time comes, we'll do this and this, and then my good grandnephew will do that and that, and so on."
Although Vladimir didn't really like Hammerstone, he felt quite comfortable when he talked to Hammerstone about how to trick his own grandnephew. Hammerstone and Vladimir had the same ideas. The only difference was that Hammerstone was only thinking about it. Usually, he would just take a few noble girls to bed and taste their emotions and blood. He wouldn't kill them, nor would he really cripple them.
And the other …
From life to death, even the soul had to be tortured.
So this didn't stop Vladimir from sneering at this guy.
"As expected of Lord Vladimir. Your foresight and taste are really praiseworthy."
Hammerstone also felt the same way. He also appreciated what Vladimir had done to Feyego. In fact, if he and that mysterious woman hadn't given him pressure for a long time, he would definitely have used his own way to repay Vladimir for giving him such a wonderful scheme and inspiration.
After all, Hammerstone and Feyego had a deep bond. If Feyego's stubbornness and infatuation hadn't given him the opportunity to release the darkness in his heart, he wouldn't have been able to live such a wonderful life. So Feyego was special to him, and only he could do something to Feyego.
But …
As long as it was to trap Feyego, then they were close brothers! X2
"Then, let's act according to the plan."
Vladimir nodded. He and Hammerstone walked out of the barrier at the same time and looked at Feyego. According to the plan, he would fight with Hammerstone, and then let Feyego fall into their first trap. After that, things would be simple, as long as Feyego …
Feyego?
Where were the people of Feyego?!
Vladimir and Hammerstone froze in place at the same time. The king who had been holding the crown and crying had completely disappeared. Only an empty throne was left. The protagonist and the most important person in their plot were gone!
"This …"
Before Vladimir and Hammerstone could be surprised, they felt the whole Shadow Island begin to tremble. The souls that formed the black fog kept crying and roaring. Even Hammerstone's skull couldn't help but light up and dim, indicating something.
"Feyego is dead!"
Hammer Stone couldn't help but roar. This was unacceptable to him. Of course, Feyego could die, but he could only die in the script that he had arranged for him! Instead of dying so inexplicably like this!
If he were to die just like that, what would happen to the script that he had just received and the inspiration that he had just gotten? Could it be that he had to watch those inspirations and wonders never appear in front of him again? That was also absolutely unacceptable! He absolutely could not tolerate such a thing happening!
Vladimir had even more things to think about. The moment Feyego died, all he thought about was running away immediately. He and Hammer could sit down and talk to each other because the two of them wanted to pit Feyego together, but now …
He immediately took a few steps back and was ready to block Hammer Rock's possible attack so that he could quickly leave this place. But Stone Hammer had no intention of doing anything to him. Instead, he swung his lantern and rushed toward Feyego's throne. Vladimir was taken aback when he saw this. He did not leave immediately but stood there and watched Hammer Stone's movements.
Hammer Stone slammed the lantern in his hand on the throne that Feyego had sat on, and countless green light and smoke spread out from his lantern. This magic tool used to imprison and torture souls naturally didn't have any special abilities, but those souls that had lost their sense of self could be used as nourishment.
The black fog all over Shadow Island began to move. This black fog was Feyego, Feyego was the black fog, the black fog was the Curse of Ruin, and the Curse of Ruin was Feyego. It took him a thousand years to regain his consciousness and form a body. Now, the Curse of Ruin still existed, but the main body of his consciousness had disappeared.
This was also why there were so many powerful people in this world, but none of them could kill Feyego and end the black fog. As long as someone died in the black fog, they would become a part of the black fog. And as long as the black fog existed, the Curse of Ruin existed, and Feyego would also exist. They, the products of the Curse of Ruin, could continue to exist and move about in this world according to their own wishes.
But even so, this was the first time Hammer Stone had seen Feyego destroyed so cleanly. Feyego's soul and consciousness had disappeared in an instant. He had not even been able to move to the black fog near him before his existence was destroyed.
But as long as there was information about him, longing for him was strong enough, and there were enough souls as sacrifices, he could condense a body in advance and descend into this world again.
It was just that the consumption was a little high.
He slammed the lantern on the throne, and the light on Hammer Stone's lantern visibly decreased by one-fifth. This one-fifth was the souls that had lost their consciousness under Hammer Stone's torture. The moment these souls were released, the sky over Shadow Island became even darker.
And there were also some changes on Li Ke's side.
"Oh?"
The white-haired man he killed left behind some spoils of war, a big sword and a crown. He was a little curious about what could last for such a moment in front of the fire of the sun he simulated, but before he could reach out to pick up the two things that fell to the ground, the crown and the sword dissipated into black fog and disappeared before his eyes.
"This feeling, these two things seem to be the objects of some kind of curse? They're one of the cores of the black fog. Could it be that I just did something to the mastermind behind the black fog? "
Li Ke didn't feel much about the guy he just killed. He just felt that he was very weak, but now it seemed that although the other party was weak, he was quite qualified to be a punching bag. And he was very similar to the King of Ruin that Lisandra and the others mentioned before.
"Should I take advantage of this opportunity to kill him?"
Rubbing his chin, Li Ke felt that he could catch up with that guy before his aura disappeared and directly kill him at the root, so that the other party could not release the black fog or anything.
"… Then why did you send that sword out? Is it unnecessary? "
At the side, Ah Li rolled her eyes and couldn't help but ridicule Li Ke's behavior. This made Li Ke feel a little awkward. The reason he gave the sword to the girl was because the girl was clearly related to the black fog. The pure and holy soul was obviously the target of the black fog. That was why he gave his newly created child to the girl.
That child was a sword of justice that Li Ke specially made, but there was a slight deviation. That guy more or less had some personality problems. Class 4 went too far, thinking that if the weak didn't have the heart to resist the strong, then they didn't have the qualifications to use his power.
And what Ah Li said was also true. If he killed the mastermind behind the scenes just like that, that girl's determination and persistence, and his child's trial would be a joke.
"You have big breasts, you know more."
Li Ke, who was angry out of humiliation, couldn't help but pinch Ah Li's chest, obviously wanting her to shut up. But after doing that, he suddenly realized that he had lost control of his emotions, and it was very much so.
A shocked expression appeared on Ah Li's face, and then she pulled her collar open. Soraka scratched her cheek awkwardly. She wanted to tell Li Ke that the Dragon King's blessing kept shifting because she was close to him, but she was also worried that he would really press her to the ground and do all kinds of things to her. So after feeling embarrassed, she directly covered Lilia's eyes, making the little deer's head light up with a question mark.
She was so bold in the dream, so why didn't she let others see it in reality?
"Erm, should we leave?"
Li Ke fell silent. He looked at his right hand that was still squirming, out of his control, and slowly shook his head.
"No … Now is not the time to do this."
Ah Li, who had long been fed by Li Ke's soul to look like Li Ke, immediately pounced on Li Ke with starry eyes, almost making Li Ke fall to the ground.
"That means we can do it tonight!"
She cheerfully used her chest to squeeze Li Ke's breathing space, without any shyness. In her opinion, even if Li Ke went berserk and did something to all the women present, as long as she was among them, it didn't matter!
She had to admit that Li Ke had indeed led this fox astray.
"Erm, I know of an inn nearby."
Sharmila was also a little embarrassed. Although she had been in the world for so many years, she was no longer embarrassed by such things. After all, many young girls who performed as entertainers could live a good life because they were part-time dancers. Although she had never done it before, she had seen it many times.
It was just that her family didn't need her to do it in the past, and she didn't have enough bargaining chips. If she had come from a slightly poorer family, perhaps she would have been an experienced woman by now, and not a young girl.
But the most likely thing was to find a relatively rich man to marry. After all, she was still very confident in her looks.
"But I need to buy insurance first."
Although he had already planned to use the sword he had given away to solve the problem and completely cut off the child's heart, Li Ke still had to take some countermeasures. Since he didn't plan to let the child die now, he had to make sure that the child didn't have the ability to do evil for the time being.
With some difficulty, he stretched out an arm from Ah Li's restraints, activated Qian Jue's mark on the back of his hand, and snapped his fingers.
In an instant, a constantly expanding light blue circle appeared beside his hand, and the scenery of Shadow Island appeared in this circle.
"It's pitch black, I can tell at a glance that this isn't a good place."
With one hand in the shape of a claw, Li Ke condensed his own power. Scorching flames gathered in front of him, and even the teleportation gate he opened began to produce electric arcs due to the excessive energy, becoming unstable. As for the residents of Shadow Island, the sudden appearance of the fireball terrified them even more.
"What's that?!"
Looking at the sunlight sprinkling down from the sky, Kai Mao felt the warmth of the sun. Moreover, under the illumination of this light, the resentment of those dead souls was quickly cleansed. The black fog in the sky also gradually dissipated, revealing the original azure sky. The ground beneath his feet recovered from the darkness, and the water that was originally filled with vicious energy was rapidly purified. The trees that were inhabited by countless vengeful spirits were no longer sinister and frightening, and instead, they began to sprout continuously.
Kai Mao felt it the most. He could feel that his body was rejuvenating, and his body that was about to lose its vitality under the influence of the undead spirits on Shadow Island and the Curse of Ruin had also regained its former vigor.
His head and body constantly emitted squeaking sounds, and his body began to grow continuously. When he saw a small flower growing out of his body, he couldn't help but tear up.
If he had tears.
"W-What the hell is this?!"
Hecarim, who was galloping on Shadow Island to his heart's content, screamed and hid in the shadows. He constantly looked for opportunities to enter deeper into Shadow Island. He could feel that the originally comfortable island had gradually become disgusting and terrifying. Only that crazy woman, Callista, would continue to stand in the golden light.
"This is the signal for revenge."
Black smoke billowed from her body, but her eyes were getting clearer. She drew a spear from her back and pierced it through Hecarim's body. Even though she knew that he would appear again after she killed him, it was enough to make her feel a little better.
As for the light?
It didn't matter.
Callista walked calmly under the light. As her consciousness became clearer, the number of spears on her back decreased. When no more black smoke was emitted from her body, she had completely reverted to her previous appearance. Apart from her body that was still somewhat translucent, she was no different from when she was alive.
As the light gradually dissipated, the entire Shadow Island was no longer as gloomy as before. Apart from a dilapidated light sphere floating in the sky, the souls bound by the black fog had arrived at the kingdom of the undead as they wished. Li Ke had also eliminated more than half of the power of the Curse of Ruin.
All that was left was to hide in the center of the island. As long as they dared to show their faces, the Light Sphere left behind by Li Ke would purify them so that they could continue to stay in the center of the shrine and wait for the Hero chosen by the Sword of Justice to arrive.
"I shouldn't have come here."
Vladimir, who was inexplicably trapped here, looked at the light sphere in the sky that was no different from the sun. Then, he turned to his nephew, Feyego, who had just revived and was clamoring to seek revenge on Li Ke. The grief in his heart was indescribable.
Why did I have to deal with such a thing!
