Between the black stone buildings, paths lead in all directions.
Step, step, step, step——
Carlisle walked in a hurry, and his short boots played a special rhythm on the stone steps.
Under the instructions of Li Ran and An Ke, she was about to contact the team leaders and immediately conduct a round of purges within the intelligence organization to prevent the infiltration of succubus pretenders.
For this dangerous person, Hei Ya must be very careful.
However, an accident interrupted Carlisle's actions, causing her to stop in an alley next to the Assassin's Guild.
There was an inconspicuous trail of blood on the ground.
The stalker's instincts warned.
Carlisle followed the blood trail and turned into a dark alley sandwiched between two tall buildings.
The space here is narrow, lacks light, and is covered with garbage and moss. It is a paradise for rats and an excellent temporary dumping ground.
The stalker's keen intuition and observation drove her to the end of the dark alley.
There was a dark elf lady lying in a pool of blood in the corner.
She immediately walked over and examined the lady's body.
Her clothes were badly damaged, her dilated pupils were full of despair, and there were huge open wounds on her chest and abdomen, which looked like they had been ripped open by some kind of wild beast.
Regrettably, this was a body without a heartbeat and still warm. If Carlisle could have come earlier, he might have been able to save her.
Succubus pretender!
At this juncture, she was the only one who dared to kill innocent people indiscriminately next to the Assassin's Guild!
Carlisle gritted his teeth angrily, taking note of the surrounding environment with a flash of his eyes, intending to return to the Assassin's Guild immediately and report the situation to An Ke.
She turned and walked out of the alley, when suddenly she felt dizzy.
Immediately afterwards, unbearable pain came from the chest and abdomen.
Blood dripped on the ground along the assassin's leather armor and boots.
Before falling into complete darkness, Carlisle felt the woman on the ground stand up, and his cold fingertips brushed her neck.
"My dear, don't you know that the devil's heart is on the right side of the chest?"
She didn't hear the content of this sentence clearly. At the last moment, she only had one thought.
Why, the corpse can talk?
…
Li Ran left the Assassin's Guild and walked onto the streets of the military zone.
There had just been an explosion in the secret area, and he had to go immediately to see what was wrong.
Someone ran over in a hurry.
It was Carlisle who had just left the Assassin's Guild. He looked nervous and probably had something to say to him.
Li Ran stood still.
Carlisle rushed forward and said anxiously: "Master Li Ran! I have something extremely important to report!"
"explain!"
Carlisle looked frightened, her face was pale and she was stained with blood. "I...I...I found a clue to the succubus pretender!"
"There's a victim's body in the alley!"
"That's too arrogant!" Li Ran said angrily, "Report to Captain An Ke immediately! I'll go to the secret area first and come back soon to investigate."
After Li Ran left, Carlisle stayed alone.
On the deserted street, Carlisle lowered his head and swayed a few times in a daze.
Sometimes her face was full of fear, sometimes she smiled, and finally, she took complete control of this body.
"The integration is almost complete, Carlisle."
"It's just the remaining will in the soul fragment, but you still have such a strong obsession. You want to find someone to report the news, and you almost succeeded."
"I didn't expect that humans and dark elves would gain a foothold here."
"If we attack now, we can easily defeat both cities."
"If I send the message back, how will the Lord Warden reward me? It's really exciting."
Carlisle thought about how pleasantly surprised the High Lord would be if the Overlord returned the heads of Ibeth and Li Ran to Talengarde. Not only would it be able to make up for the failure of not destroying the Griffin Claws, but it would also be possible for the Overlord to be promoted to a Hell Knight.
And she will also replace the succubus leader Abby and become the warlord's favorite.
"Sure enough, the most dangerous place is the safest place, and the most dangerous person is the most worthy of disguise."
Step, step, step, step——
The sound of short boots on the stone steps sounded lightly.
On the deserted streets, the devil is singing.
…
Li Ran rushed to the Dark Alchemist Association.
The entire building was shrouded in strong shadow magic, making it difficult to see what was going on inside.
Where's Ibeth?
After a while, the glow of magic dispersed the shadows and appeared in the damaged laboratory on the second floor.
Behind the magic shield, the figures of Ibeth and the researcher were revealed.
As a shadow witch, it is not a big deal to be prepared in advance to defend against a close shadow burst.
Although the cost was high, as the walls of three nearby laboratories were completely destroyed, the researchers were well protected by Ibeth's magical shield.
Yibesi saw Li Ran, so she removed the shield and allowed the researchers to evacuate in an orderly manner. She slowly came to Li Ran.
"Are you...really okay?" Li Ran asked with a strange expression.
Yibeisi showed a regretful expression: "Lord Li Ran, I am very sorry, we have neither discovered the formula of gunpowder nor made a fire elemental magic bomb."
"We can use expensive mithril and high-level alchemical materials to simulate the effect of Pyroblast, but no one is stupid enough to spend mithril to mine. If you want to find cheap alchemical materials that induce a single pure magic power, you need a lot of experiments."
A smile appeared on Yibeisi's face: "Fortunately, the Dark Alchemist Association has a long history and rich technical reserves. As a shadow witch, I also know enough about the nature of shadow magic."
"Now, please allow me to introduce to you the latest product of Dark Alchemy: Shadow Mana Bomb!"
Yibes took out a cylindrical metal sleeve device, which looked very rough and crude. It was obviously just an experimental product put together.
"You actually succeeded?" Li Ran asked in surprise.
He took the magic bomb and, following Yibes's instructions, inserted the primer into the sleeve.
The concentrated shadow magic in the primer part and the catalytic induction powder in the sleeve fused together, and a violent explosion occurred three seconds after Li Ran threw it out!
boom!
A shallow crater was created on the solid black stone floor, and the area around the blast point was covered with a dark shadow as if ink had been splashed on it.
Although the power of the device still needs to be enhanced, the shadows are all filled with rich shadow magic, and even the strong crystal light cannot dispel them in a short time.
No matter how knowledgeable Li Ran was, he was really shocked by the genius idea of the shadow magic bomb at this moment.
Is there any product on earth that can cause an explosion and create a large shadow at the same time?
Absolutely impossible!
Yibesi's eyes flashed with joy, seeming to tell the new lord what amazing talents she, the shadow witch, possessed.
Don't underestimate her.
