Carl muttered to himself as he looked at Hope and Ying beside him.

Ever since Carl's psychic powers improved, he no longer slept as soundly as before.

After he closed his eyes, his psychic power would automatically feed everything around him into his brain.

Carl can clearly understand the situation around him and can wake up at any time.

Although this allowed Carl to no longer worry about being ambushed by the enemy, it also deprived him of the pleasure of sleeping in.

It was as if he was still lying in bed even though he clearly couldn't fall asleep.

"Forget it. There is gain and loss. It is better to not be able to sleep in than to be assassinated in your sleep."

After comforting himself in his heart, Carl was about to go out and continue working, but he ended up alarming Hope and Ying.

"Hmm? Carl, you're awake. Ha~, do you feel that our daily routines have been too irregular in recent days? It's already noon now."

Hope said with a slightly worried tone as he took out his pocket watch from his chest pocket and took a look at it.

A chaotic work and rest schedule will greatly reduce the efficiency of rest. Although high-level professionals like Carl, whose average level has reached 10, do not have to worry about this, ordinary drow and fire elementals cannot do so.

"I probably can't adjust recently. Let's wait until the team reaches the Earth Gate."

Outside the car window, the Zalls had already started packing their bags.

Carl and Hope got out of the car and asked everyone to start cooking.

After a while, the food was ready. Everyone quickly finished their "breakfast", started the car, and headed in the designated direction.

…

At the same time, the stronghold of the Rose Cult.

In the spacious hall, the psionicist who had ambushed Carl before was discussing the follow-up plan to capture Carl with the Soul Blade Wanderer leaders who had transformed back into ordinary drow appearances.

This is a tribe that has completely converted to the Rose Cult, and the leader of the tribe has become a leader among the Soul Blades.

The people in the sect intend to make this place a main base of the Rose Sect, so they have already started decorating it.

On the wall opposite the gate, the craftsmen used some kind of black paint to outline a black spider emblem hanging from a spider web. If you look closely, you will find that the head of the spider is a silhouette of a drow elf.

This is the "holy emblem" of the Rose Cult today.

"We must find a way to deal with the target's companions, and also that huge iron golem! As long as that iron golem exists, we will have no way to deal with the target!"

Looking at the high-ranking psionicists of the church, the Soul Blade Wanderers of the Rose Sect complained heartfeltly.

But the psychic sitting at the top seat turned a deaf ear to the complaints.

It is said that three women make a drama, and as a group that is 99% female, there are too many intrigues within the Zhuoer.

Feeling the worry and a bit of malice in the Soul Blade in front of him, the psionicist remained calm on the surface but sneered in his heart.

We are all thousand-year-old foxes, what are you playing at playing Liao Zhai here? "You are right, but the difficulty of the task will not be reduced by daydreaming. Now that we have a direction, let's continue to refine it!

How to distract the target's companions? How to ensure that the target does not use the giant iron golem? These are what we need to consider next! The most important point is how to complete all this before the target escapes from the Underdark! If the target completely escapes and returns to Storm Bay, then we will have no chance!"

With a slightly teasing tone, the psychic said this in an exaggerated manner.

But these words are complete nonsense. If they could come up with them, why would they stay here?

Burned by intense jealousy, several Soul Blade team captains cursed in their hearts while showing a submissive expression of "You are right" on the surface.

There was harmony in the hall, but the problem returned to the starting point.

Just then, footsteps were heard outside the house.

The Soul Blade captains who were originally wanderers immediately became alert, and the psionicist sitting at the top also looked over.

At the door of the hall, a figure wearing leather armor decorated with hollow metal and four pairs of spider claws on his back gradually appeared.

She is Elohine, the current saint of the Rose Cult and the drow closest to the Spider Queen Rose.

Seeing her, the drow in the hall stood up and saluted.

"Nice to meet you, Your Highness."

As the most powerful person in the Rose Cult, Elohine's status is not only due to her compatibility with the Nightmare Spirit.

Her status and prestige come from her contribution to the development of the entire sect.

The Rose Cult has been around for at least several hundred years since its founding, and the one who developed it to its present state was none other than the person before him.

She herself is a 13th-level psionicist and is very familiar with the combat techniques of soul blades.

"It seems that the destined Son does not want to dedicate himself to the Spider Queen?"

Pushing the hair that fell on her forehead behind her ears, Eroshine's voice like a silver bell echoed in the hall.

The large areas of skin not covered by the leather armor occasionally glowed in the dim environment.

The fluorescent light faintly formed certain patterns, but based on the part that was currently revealed, it was impossible to tell what it was.

"Yes, Lady Saint, we are discussing how to lure the target to give up resistance, but... but this is too difficult."

Giving up the seat at the head, the psychic whose level remained at the 8th level reported respectfully.

Before she could continue speaking, Eroshine suddenly pointed her finger at a Soul Blade captain present.

The faint spiritual light connected the two people, and Elohine's eyes seemed to see the process of the battle and her own goal directly through the other party's brain.

“Wow, what a strong man! Although he is wearing a suit of steel armor, I can feel his vigorous energy.

Agatha, I think we can change our thinking. Since he won't take any hard stuff, we can give him some soft stuff!"

He ran his finger across the collar of a drow man, and his body began to twitch as if he had been electrocuted.

But there was no sign of pain from the electric shock on her face. Instead, she looked as if her blood was boiling and she was overly excited.

Seeing her like this, the corners of Elohine's mouth curled up, and then she twisted her steps like a model and sat in the seat at the top.

She held her cheek with one hand, crossed one leg, and concluded in a queenly manner: "Our ultimate goal is to have him become the carrier of the Spider Queen, but if that's not possible, we can also borrow him and get pregnant with his child!

Of course, if he falls under our spell, wouldn't the ultimate goal be achieved? "
