Chapter 382 Consumption
On the southwestern outskirts of Tivian, under the dark winter night sky, a thunder suddenly exploded for no reason. When the roaring thunder sounded, the cracked and tortuous white light mark observed the sky and earth, illuminating the endless darkness for a moment.
Although the light that pierced the sky lasted only for a moment, it was extremely dazzling. Many eyes that had not yet fallen asleep within a few kilometers saw this wonder, including the Balet Villa in the distance.
"What happened? Why did it suddenly thunder?"
On the third floor of the Barrett Villa, Kenke, standing by the window, looked at the flash of lightning in the distance and couldn't help but frown and said, "It is deep winter now, and the weather right now doesn't look like thunderous weather at all. This sudden thunder is obviously wrong."
"Mr. Kenke... the one with the thunder over there seems to be the one you are chasing. Could it be that you have encountered some problems? Should we rush over to support you?"
At this time, next to Kenke, an eight-pointed killer spoke up and suggested something, but Kenke just shook his head in response after hearing it.
"No, there is no need. Even if the priest is a derivative, his strength is higher than mine. He is an existence beyond the chalk. Unless the other side has a red-level, they will not be able to do anything to the priest. But if other red-level people besides Despenser and the church are near Tivian, it will alarm the archbishop of the Glowing God. So we don't have to worry about the problems on the priest's side. We just need to wait for his news."
Looking at the darkness in the distance, Kenke said as a matter of course. Listening to Kenke's words, the killers beside him nodded in understanding, and then did not say anything else.
Yes, the Spider Fang Priest, he is one of the few Spider Queen Priests in their Eight-Pointed Nest, a real big shot. Although the one who came now is not the real one but a derivative, his strength is beyond the imagination of the minions like us. There is no need to worry about it. Just wait here for good news.
Sure enough, not long after the lightning struck in the distance, Kenke felt a pain in his arm. After confirming the location of the pain, he became serious. Then he spread out his palm, allowing a human-faced spider with unusually gorgeous patterns to crawl out from his sleeve and into his palm. This was the human-faced spider that the Spider Fang Priest was communicating with him with!
Seeing the human-faced spider crawling on his hand, Kenke did not dare to neglect it. He immediately placed the spider on the table beside him, then knelt down respectfully. After seeing this, the group of killers beside him also knelt down.
After kneeling down, Kenke spoke in a respectful tone, looking at the human-faced spider.
"Master Priest, what can I do for you?"
Kenke spoke to the human-faced spider with great respect, while the other killers around him knelt down without daring to make a sound, quietly waiting for their lives.
Soon after hearing Kenk's voice, the patterns on the human-faced spider began to twist, and the old voice of the Spider Fang Priest sounded from it.
"Kenke... immediately go to the place where the lightning struck and pick up the debris there. Take it away quickly and don't stop."
"Remains? Um... May I ask, Lord Spider Fang Priest, are they the remains of that daring puppeteer? Have you gotten rid of him?" Hearing the words of the Spider Fang Priest, Kenke said with a somewhat joyful tone, but what he received was an extremely harsh response.
"Just go when I tell you to! Don't worry about anything else! It's almost dawn now, and the people from the Security Bureau may come at any time, so hurry up!"
"Um... yes, yes... I'll leave right away." After hearing the Spider Fang Priest's harsh words, Kenke was stunned for a moment, then nodded hurriedly, and the killers around him were slightly startled after seeing this scene. Everyone felt that the current situation was a bit strange for a moment. They were confused in their hearts, but did not dare to say anything directly.
Just as Kenke was about to stand up and take action, the Spider Fang Priest spoke again through the human-faced spider.
"By the way, before you go, have the rest of the people prepare to use explosives to enter Barrett's secret room and burn everything inside along with this villa. Also, after collecting the wreckage, collect one more thing on the way back. I will give you specific directions later."
"I understand, Master Priest, I will take action immediately!"
"Well, it's almost dawn, let's hurry up..."
After the final instructions, the human-faced spider fell silent. Kenke did not dare to delay and stood up and put the human-faced spider into his sleeve. Then he turned around and asked his men to start arranging the entry into the secret room and burning the library. After everything was arranged, Kenke turned into a group of bats and flew towards the direction where the thunder was falling in the distance.
…
At this moment, somewhere far away from Tivian Wanyu, in a small room filled with blood and bloodstains everywhere, a hunched figure in a robe was sitting on a high-back chair. His breathing was a little rapid, and his dark red eyes were filled with complex emotions.
Anger, surprise, confusion...all these expressions were written on the face of the Spider Fang Priest at this moment. At this moment, he was bearing the backlash of losing a derivative body.
"As expected, that panicked escape posture... was it all fake? Everything was done to lure me into this trap... Humph... This time you win."
Sitting on the high-back chair, the Spider Fang Priest thought with a twinkling gaze that the escape of the man behind the scenes was a trap specifically designed to lure him. In the Spider Fang Priest's opinion, the man behind the doll must have deliberately escaped in order to lure him into the ambush trap set by him and his companions, and his companions possessed a powerful extraordinary power that could destroy his own body.
"The ability to use the spiritual line of the puppet to directly cause damage with a range far beyond the normal range of the flesh puppet... This is a 'cup' ability that I have never seen before... In comparison, the 'cup' abilities that made the wounds of the people that Berlitt encountered before were not many, but they did exist... If we only look at these, these guys may have something to do with the afterbirth..."
The Spider Fang Priest continued to think in his heart, and after a little thought, he remembered the dazzling lightning that his derivative saw at the last moment.
"But...if they are really the 'cups'...where does this powerful thunder power come from? I have been devoted to secrecy for more than 200 years, but I have never heard of any method of summoning thunder...
"Did they... get some extraordinary tool that can summon thunder from somewhere? What is the spiritual truth of this thunder power?"
Sitting in his high-back chair, the Spider Fang Priest was thinking like this. At this moment, he was already thinking about what to say to his colleagues in the next high-level meeting of the Eight Peaks.
