Chapter 20 - Deal with the Shadow God
Chapter 20 Deal with the Shadow God
Lind controlled the blood flowing in his body. The name of this Blood Magic was “Blood Turbid Star”. It could allow his blood to form a sphere that was like a planet. Then, it would compress and blow up, instantly forming an explosion that could completely flatten the underground cave on this level.
Of course, Vanessa, who was in front of him, would also be killed by the damage of the Blood Turbid Star.
This way, there would be no evidence.
At that time, even if the Adventurer’s Guild investigated, Lind could say that he had encountered a vampire and escaped with his
life.
Unfortunately, his companion…
Lind was still trying to figure out how to cover up the lie.
His hand was suddenly grabbed by a pair of hands. Vanessa looked at Lind and sighed. “I wanted to let you fend for yourself, but you were brought in by me. Forget it, I’ll save you this time.”
As Vanessa spoke, she extended her hand. The dagger that was originally inserted into the Goblin’s head seemed to come alive and flew into her hand.
She muttered a string of words.
“The Shadow God who was born in Chaos.’
“I, Alisha Dean Pandoragon, your obscure and pious believer, hereby pray for your strength.”
“With my blood as the medium and my lifespan as the price, I hope you can give me
the teachings of the Shadow!”
With that, Vanessa held the dagger in her
right hand and cut her left hand.
Her blood flowed down the wound and
dripped to the ground.
Vanessa’s blood seemed to come alive. It
flowed on the ground like a snake, forming a rune on the ground. This rune looked like two goat horns tangled together as it was completed.
Vanessa had grown weak. Her face was pale and she was trembling.
Large beads of sweat fell from her forehead. At this moment, she seemed to be enduring immense pain.
Lind felt a black fog envelop him, and he was surrounded by endless chaos.
In the black fog, a huge goat skull burning with purple flames appeared in front of the two of them.
The two pitch-black holes in the eye sockets of the goat’s skull were also emitting purple flames at this moment. It looked down at Vanessa and said, “The deal is set. State your request!”
The goat skull’s voice was hoarse and deep, with an echo, like the whisper of an ancient
god.
Vanessa said weakly to the goat skull, “I want to enter the center of the temple and stop the
pursuers.”
Vanessa paused and pointed to Lind. “With
him!”
The flames in the goat skull’s eyes flickered
as it spoke again.
“Two people, double the price!”
Vanessa nodded. “Agreed!”
As soon as Vanessa finished speaking, the flames in the goat skull’s eyes became even more lush.
The purple flames around it burned fiercely, as if they wanted to burn everything to ashes. It looked at Vanessa, and the skull moved slightly as it continued to make the same sound as before.
“May the Shadow bless you!”
After saying this, the goat skull disappeared.
Lind felt that the black fog around him was dissipating.
The scene in front of him flickered. It was no longer the spiral staircase.
Instead, it was an extremely long corridor. The left and right sides of the corridor, as well
as the dome, were crystal walls that emitted a milky white light. The dome was nearly tens of meters high, and the corridor was also dozens of meters wide. Standing in the corridor, Lind felt like an ant.
It was as if the tunnel in front of them was
not designed for them.
Instead, it was for an even larger creature.
For example, a giant or something else.
At this moment, the Goblins outside seemed to have discovered that there were two more
people in their temple.
They reached the door and screamed frantically into it, shouting and brandishing their weapons, trying to storm the temple.
However, there seemed to be an invisible wall in the air between them and Lind. No matter
how hard the Goblins tried, they could not break through the blockade.
This invisible wall was clearly created by the goat skull.
Lind turned around and wanted to walk towards the interior of the temple. However, he felt as if his feet had bumped into something soft.
He looked down and saw that it was Vanessa.
At this moment, her breathing was weak, as if her body had been overdrawn. Her body was as limp as a sponge, as if she had contracted
some illness. Her expression was extremely ugly.
She raised her hand and pointed weakly at
Lind.
However, at this moment, she did not even
have the strength to raise her hand. She raised it slightly and then put it down. If he attacked now, he could easily kill Vanessa.
The thought popped into Lind’s head.
Originally, Lind thought that he could easily
kill Vanessa, who had no magic, with his Blood Magic, so he had never considered Vanessa a threat.
But after seeing the goat skull, Lind was a
little wary of Vanessa.
That goat skull was something he had never seen before.
Moreover, the power of the goat skull made him feel a trace of fear.
Lind had only experienced this feeling from someone in his predecessor’s memory. That person was Dracula, the Vampire King.
This meant that the strength of the goat skull
was probably on the same level as Dracula.
If Vanessa summoned the goat skull again when he had the thought of killing her, it would be hard to say what the outcome would
be.
And now Vanessa was as weak as a sheep. He only needed to squeeze gently and he
would be able to kill Vanessa like a bug.
He looked at Vanessa, his eyes twinkling, as if he were making a decision.
In the end, Lind gave up on what he was thinking and helped Vanessa to the wall so that she could rest against it.
“Mr. Ander.” Vanessa suddenly grabbed
Lind’s hand and looked at him pleadingly. “Since I saved your life, can you help me?” Lind fell silent. Honestly, he didn’t want to get involved in this mess, but leaving Vanessa to fend for herself wasn’t something he could
do.
He had no choice but to squat down and look Vanessa in the eye. “If yo you want me to help you, you’d better stop hiding anything from me. Your name shouldn’t be Vanessa. It
should be Alisha Dean Pandoragon. You used a fake name. Tell me why.” Vanessa-no, Alisha-looked at Lind and slowly removed her veil.
Under the veil was an extremely beautiful
face.
Although she looked a little pale because of the transaction with the goat skull and her lips were bloodless, it still could not diminish her stunning appearance. Alisha said to Lind, “You’re right. Vanessa is
the name of my maid. My real identity is the third daughter of Bolkin Dean Pandoragon, the current emperor of the Tulip Empire.”
Lind controlled the blood flowing in his body. The name of this Blood Magic was “Blood Turbid Star”. It could allow his blood to form a sphere that was like a planet. Then, it would compress and blow up, instantly forming an explosion that could completely flatten the underground cave on this level.
