The tragedy that occurred in the South City District has spread throughout the entire port city. Although Tik and others want to stop it, they are simply powerless.

After all, the impact this time was too widespread. There were thousands of poor people who fled the South City area and witnessed their relatives and friends dying inexplicably and having their souls harvested. All kinds of rumors emerged in an endless stream.

Some people suspected that a certain magic workshop was conducting a forbidden research on harvesting souls, others believed that this was a sign of the birth of evil, and there were even rumors that the evil wizard Merck was hiding in this port city.

However, Philip, Orlando and others no longer had time to pay attention to these endless rumors, because a very strange situation had occurred in Yieta College.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, a faint shrieking sound would always be heard in the academy, as if it could condense people's souls, and all the wizard apprentices were frightened to death.

Apprentice wizards like Pierce, who had been here for more than ten years, recalled the past. That was before the psionic school was abandoned. Many students had heard this strange sound at that time, and the "Screaming Tower" was named after it...

"Who can tell me what's inside that tower?" On the morning of the third day, Tik, who had been unable to sleep for two nights due to the screaming, finally couldn't help but ask.

"That's the Howling Tower, a research institute of the School of Psionics a few years ago. After the school was disbanded, the tower has been abandoned..." Philip explained, but he kept silent about the details and was unwilling to say more.

"As for the details, let's wait for Master Hellram to come back and explain them to you." Orlando on the side also spoke up.

Tik and Roll did not dare to push too hard. After all, they were still in the Yieta Harbor. If a conflict really broke out, they would probably have difficulty getting out.

As for entering the Screaming Tower to check the situation? This is simply tantamount to seeking death. Tik guessed that the souls that were extracted were finally gathered in this tower. The interior might be full of undead spirits. If you rashly step in, you might be in danger of your life.

In view of this, the two had no choice but to wait for the support of the parliament while trying to win over Lin En, a possible ally.

If their guess is correct, the tragedy in the South City District is probably related to Hellram, so Philip and others may be involved. In comparison, the only one who is less suspicious is Lynn, a professor of Arcane Mathematics who has just arrived in the wizarding land not long ago.

In view of this, Lin En was inexplicably dragged into a secret discussion with Tick and Roll for a whole night, discussing various possible situations.

Lin En had a very strange expression when he came out. Unlike the other two, he thought that there would not be too many people involved in this matter.

After all, the Soul Devouring Array has a very bad reputation. It is a taboo among taboos in the land of wizards. Once it is exposed, even if He Ran Ram has the identity of a great wizard, he will probably not escape the fate of being hunted down.

That's why they created the Faceless Men organization where none of them know each other's identities. In the entire Crimson Thorns, probably only North knows who their boss behind the scenes is.

Because of this, before the news of Helram's death was exposed, Lin En did not think that they would encounter any attacks from the remnants. Taking advantage of the time when classes were suspended due to the riots, he studied the virtual domain that had been seized by the intelligent computer!

After two days of familiarization, Lin En has transformed this realm composed of magic power and soul power. It is no longer a chaotic state with nothing but darkness.

Lynn was completely immersed in this creator-like experience. Although most of the work was done by the intelligent brain loading the corresponding data, this sense of participation was also a very unique experience.

"Let's try again and see if I can replicate a black hole..." Lin En pondered and retrieved the database about black holes from the intelligent computer. However, when he was about to replicate it, he received a prompt of insufficient energy.

Lin En was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "071, how much energy do we have left?"

[Remaining energy, 8.4%, do you want to absorb the stored soul power to replenish it? ]

"Absorb it." Lin En hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Judging from Yieta's situation, it is not easy to resurrect a person in this world. Those who were devoured by the Soul-Devouring Array and transformed into soul bodies have lost their previous memories and only have the deepest obsessions before death left. There is no possibility of recovery.

“By the way, keep the spirit of the white dove for me, don’t convert her too.” Lin En seemed to suddenly think of something and spoke again.

Unlike other spirits he had seen, the white dove was an extremely rare soul that could maintain its sanity and communicate. It was very valuable for research, not to mention that he had made a promise before.

But in the eyes of the intelligent brain, the white dove is a big gift package that is several times stronger than the soul of an ordinary wizard apprentice and can restore 12% of the energy reserves. Therefore, whenever the intelligent brain is short of energy, the proposal to sacrifice the white dove in exchange for energy will always pop up first.

Seeing that the energy reserves of the intelligent computer had increased to 100% again in a very short period of time, Lin En did not look very happy, because there were so many places that needed energy.

After Helram's death, this virtual realm lost its energy supply. Lin En had no choice but to let the intelligent computer provide magic power. The consumption was also terrifying, and 15% of the energy reserves would be consumed in a day.

“Forget it, let’s not work on the black hole for now. Just make a simple simulation of all the celestial bodies outside the visible range. Don’t waste too much computing power on it.” After thinking about it, Lin En quickly said in his mind.

After the words fell, the stars in the distance suddenly dimmed a little, and the daily magic power consumption became 5%. If there was no one in the virtual realm, the consumption would be reduced to about 1%.

Lin En spent so much time and effort to create this virtual realm into a picture of the universe. Of course, it was not just for fun, but it has great use.

After witnessing the darkness of Yieta Harbor and the two-faced face of Hellram, Lynn realized that outsiders were ultimately unreliable, and he needed to form his own school to avoid being deceived again.
