Chapter 526

There were also people being revived from the dead in the various kingdoms, or those who were originally mentally retarded were suddenly enlightened and became abnormally intelligent.

In just a few short months, the entire Flame world became even more chaotic.

The dual threat of the fog and the transmigrators even caused a large scale civil war in a certain kingdom, a certain duke even wanted to break away from the kingdom and establish his own duchy.

The arrival of outsiders also brought with them quite a bit of new technology. The Apostles already had a few technological items that were spread to this world, and with the help of the transmigrators, metal forging technology rapidly developed, further pushing the technological tree of the Flame world forward and creating a steam engine that complemented the laws of this world.

An unprecedented revolution was taking place.

This caused the three people who came out from the ruins to feel a bit of disbelief.

When Haarlem sensed Frye's departure, he didn't say anything, he was even curious as to why he only left now.

Before, they only wanted him to lead the way into the ruins, but they had already gone deeper than where Frye's father had been, so he could have left a long time ago.

As the three of them moved forward, they soon found the military supplies left behind by the Cauchy people in the past. Although most of them had been destroyed, they found quite a bit of kerosene.

Quite a few of them had already turned into solid black objects because they weren't sealed properly, but there were still some that were stored in metal cans that could still be used.

Without wasting any time, the three of them took the kerosene and headed towards where the corpses were.

In front of the Cauchy corpses, most of the Evil Spirits followed the newly converted Evil Spirit Ulysses to chase after the Grandmaster, leaving only Salajia who was too lazy to move. She didn't like Ulysses who would do anything, and she could see his ambition to seize power, but she let him be.

In fact, from Salajia's point of view, this was a form of release. She didn't want to live in the first place, the only reason she was still alive was because of the mission imposed on her by her identity as an Evil Spirit. Now that someone had stepped forward, even if this person was annoying, she could only let him be.

"I was never a hero to begin with, it's good for me to fade away like this" Looking at the corpses, Salajia's eyes were filled with unerasable sorrow. These were the people of her tribe that she wanted to save, but now they were all nothing but bones.

If she had arrived a bit earlier and stopped her people from seeking their own deaths, they might have been able to continue living in Reya!

If she hadn't stopped them and instead helped them obtain the resources, they might not have had to stay in Reya and starve to death due to the lack of food, the rest of them even committed suicide.

If only he hadn't woken up …

She couldn't understand why out of so many Cauchy people, she was the only one who was awakened, while the others were still in slumber, not even their true names had been erased from history.

That was what Salajia couldn't figure out the most. Why was she the only sinner awake?

The evil spirits in the surroundings did not approach and just guarded the surrounding passages. If the humans wanted to eradicate the Mist, they would have to destroy the bones, which Salajia absolutely could not allow. She was already a sinner of the entire race, and if she could not even guard their bones well, then there would be no meaning for her to exist at all.

So rather than saying that the evil spirit's mission was driving her, it was more accurate to say that the skeletons of her people were binding her.

But at the next moment, a fluctuation of soul destruction came from one of the passageways. Salajia's expression changed, and she quickly understood something.

"Luring the tiger away from the mountain?"

Salajia then sensed several grey barrels rolling out from the passageway towards the pile of bones. The barrels were extremely fast and carried an unstoppable presence.

Salajia found them familiar, but couldn't recognize what these barrels were. But that didn't stop her from stopping them from approaching.

As soon as she used her ominous ability, the barrels that were originally rolling towards the pile of bones seemed to have hit a rock or something else, causing their rolling trajectory to change, as if they were trying to crash into each other.

But right at this moment, a few greyish black lines appeared on the barrels like small tentacles, once again guiding the barrel's trajectory towards the pile of bones.

However, as the greyish black lines flowed out, Salajia was able to see the materials inside the barrels.

"Iron?" Connecting the image of the barrels, the Cauchy woman immediately thought of the armaments and supplies. She knew that they were left for the Cauchy descendants, but she considered herself a sinner, and since she had no use for these things as an evil spirit, she didn't order anyone to touch them.

She didn't expect the enemy to use them against her instead.

From the passageway earlier, two figures that weren't particularly tall or big rushed out. One of them was shrouded in a crimson aura that resembled a venomous snake, wielding a rapier that was shrouded in crimson aura as he rushed towards the pile of bones.

The other person was a lot more concealed, his figure was faintly discernible, sometimes disappearing without warning, only to reappear extremely close to the pile of bones. It was the one who saved the grandmaster earlier.

Looking at the torches in their hands, Salajia completely understood what they were planning.

Shocked and furious, Salajia screamed, unleashing her interference force derived from her soul to fully utilize her ability. Various information flowed into her surroundings, manipulating the changes in the surroundings.

For example, when Parry was running with a rapier in his hand, he suddenly felt his foot slip, as if he was stepping on a patch of moss. In a dark environment, their previous actions were completely based on Haarlem's dust as a guide.

But now that Haarlem was manipulating the dust to control the kerosene barrels, their senses from the light of the torches weren't as good as before. Combined with Salajia's ability, everything seemed to be heading in the worst possible direction.

While Parry was barely maintaining his balance, the Evil Spirits around him were already rushing towards him. A powerful pulling force was acting on Parry's body. One of the Evil Spirits was opening its mouth, pulling Parry into its mouth.

The ability of this evil spirit was called Devour. As long as it was within the range of its perception, once it selected something, it would open its mouth and produce a pulling force. The more targets it selected, the weaker the pulling force would be.

But when the target was a single person, this pulling force would become extremely powerful.

Parry's body was unstable, and even if he kept resisting, he could only be pulled bit by bit towards that Evil Spirit. Another Evil Spirit floated over from a distance, watching Parry's body being pulled, holding a longsword in each hand, with a touch of turquoise aura wrapped around it.

The Dual Swordsman was a relatively famous Grandmaster of Combat during his lifetime, but what really made him shine was not his dual sword technique, but the germs he obtained from the King of Evil Spirits, which he smeared on his swords and killed many powerful enemies.

So after his death, he was pulled out of history by his connection with the King of Evil Spirits, becoming an Evil Spirit. The blessing he obtained from history was the ability to apply poison to weapons.
