Chapter 550 - Repairing the Soul and Watching the Fire From the Other Side
Chapter 550: Repairing the Soul and Watching the Fire From the Other Side
Gajero’s killing intent toward Vincent was unprecedentedly strong!
Gajero had finally reversed the restrictions of the Phantom Race’s Black Hole without any sleep or rest.
However, he suddenly felt a powerful force coming from within the Black Hole. The force had injured him severely.
Gajero was familiar with the unstoppable force and dazzling golden light. It belonged to the strongest race amongst the 10,000 races of the Black Hole.
Gajero was lucky enough to survive the strong force. He finally realized the reason that he was unable to break through the restrictions many years ago. This was because the restrictions were imposed by the God Race. This meant that whoever that backed Vincent must have once made a deal with the Protoss!
Gajero’s lifelong goal was to become a Protoss, so he was very familiar with the habits of the Protoss. He knew that it was best not to provoke any races that were related to the Protoss. This was because it was very likely for the Protoss to be paying attention to whoever they made a deal with. If he attacked them rashly, he might anger the Protoss.
However, at that moment, Gajero had offended the Protoss without being aware of it beforehand. Moreover, he was severely injured all over. His hatred for Vincent had made him completely lose his mind. He only wanted to kill the weak Vincent at all costs.
Nevertheless, Vincent had escaped from his hands time and time again!
Gaia’s eyes were suffused with a purple glow as he looked into the depths of the world before him. He turned and said to Gajero, “Chief, the physical characteristics of the race here are basically the same as that guy. I can confirm that this must be his hometown!”
Gajero’s face was filled with rage as he roared in a low voice, “As long as we’re in the right place, that b*stard will have no way to escape today! As long as he doesn’t take the initiative to appear, we will completely annihilate this race!”
Following that, he took a deep breath. He wanted to find Vincent’s remnant aura.
Suddenly, a coordinate appeared in Gajero’s mind. He could sense Vincent’s aura there. This meant that Vincent was either there or had stayed there for a long time!
Gajero sighed excitedly and raised his hand to point in a direction, “I found him!”
Gaia did not hesitate. He immediately carried the weak Gajero on his back and rushed in the direction he pointed.
As a black rainbow streaked across the sky, Gaia and Gajero’s figures instantly appeared on the square where only Jerome and Kyle were left.
Jerome had successfully replicated Vincent’s current form. Regardless of whether it was his appearance or aura, they were all exactly the same as Vincent’s. He was exactly the same as Vincent throughout.
“B*stard, I’ve finally found you. Today, I’m going to tear you into 10,000 pieces!”
Gajero looked at Jerome below and mistook him for Vincent. He roared furiously with a murderous aura.
As a prince of the Phantom Race, even though Jerome had been suppressed by his big brother since he was young, no one dared to speak to him like this. After seeing how rude Gajero was to him, he immediately said furiously, “You actually dare to speak to me in such a manner. You’re really courting death!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Jerome gave up on continuing the confrontation with Kyle. He turned around and rushed into the sky. He raised the flaming longsword in his hand high up and slashed directly at Gaia and Gajero.
Gaia, who was supporting Gajero, had a hint of doubt in his eyes at that moment. This was because after he discovered that Vincent had escaped into this world, he had become much bolder. This was because, during the previous encounter and pursuit, Vincent had never taken the initiative to attack Gajero. Therefore, he was currently acting very strangely.
However, Gaia did not think much about it. He just thought it was normal for someone’s confidence to increase when he or she was in a place that they were most familiar with. Therefore, it was not surprising for Vincent to react this way.
As for Gajero, who was severely injured, he had no time to think about it. His eyes were only focused on Vincent, who had taken the initiative to come forward!
“You came at the right time. Watch how I turn you into ashes!”
Gajero let out a furious roar and took a deep breath. His injuries began to recover rapidly, and his condition and strength returned to their peak in an instant.
Given the continuous regeneration ability of the demons, Gajero could have healed his injuries a long time ago. However, he still chose to let Gaia carry him. It was to show his weakness and lure the opponent to attack him. This way, he could save the time to capture him.
Unfortunately, it was Jerome who fell for it and not Vincent himself.
Gajero, who had recovered to his peak condition, raised a finger and pointed at Jerome who was charging toward him. Vincent, who had been in the space tunnel, immediately retracted his gaze.
“There’s no suspense. Jerome won’t be able to escape from Gajero. Right now, I have to start handling my own matters!” sighed Vincent softly.
He then snapped his fingers and summoned all the Phantoms’ souls in his body.
Vincent looked at the group of dull souls and gave his first order, “Those with cultivation levels above level 50, please take a step forward!”
More than ten souls appeared. They stood in a row, waiting for Vincent’s next order.
Vincent asked softly, “How much do you know about the Phantom Race’s god-level abilities?”
All of the Phantoms did not move. They continued to stand there like wooden blocks.
Vincent then asked another question, “Then, which one of you knows about the origin of the Phantom Race’s innate ability?”
There was still no answer.
Vincent could not help but feel a little disappointed when he saw this. He then took the initiative to probe every Phantom’s memory, but he still could not find anything.
Vincent could not help but sigh, “It seems that even the Phantoms who are at level 50, still don’t know about the replication laws and the replication authority. If I want to continue searching for the secrets of these two god-level abilities, I can only look for a more powerful Phantom, or directly look for a member of the Phantom Race’s royal family!”
He then turned his gaze to look outside the space barrier again. This was because there were currently two more powerful Phantoms standing outside, and they were all members of the royal family!
Only by capturing them or obtaining their souls would it be possible for Vincent to find clues about god-level abilities. However, as long as Vincent opened the space door, all the hard work he had put in would be for naught!
Back in the competition arena earlier, Vincent noticed that Jerome had started to doubt his identity, which was why he had intentionally displayed the modification authority in front of him. He had lured Jerome, who was extremely ambitious, to take the initiative to replicate his own abilities.
Vincent’s purpose for doing all of this was to make sure Jerome took his place to fight against Gajero, thus buying time for Kurt, to set up the teleportation door.
As things had come to this stage, Vincent decided not to ruin his plan. He decided to wait for the battle to develop further.
Although Jerome had bravely rushed in front of Gajero, Gajero immediately shot out a ray of destruction from his fingertips, completely wiping out Jerome, leaving no traces behind.
Vincent could not help but sigh with some worry, “Given Gajero’s law of destruction attack and destruction authority, can Jerome’s soul still remain?”
Vincent was unable to confirm whether Jerome still had a soul, but he could only assume the worst. He could only place his hopes on Kyle who he hoped would be able to escape from Gajero’s hands, or at least die with dignity and leave his soul behind.
However, Kyle’s current performance made Vincent feel very disappointed.
After seeing Jerome being killed by Gajero, Kyle walked forward excitedly. He did not seem to understand the seriousness of the matter.
Kyle said to Gajero and Gaia with confidence, “Which city-state is the two of you from? Who did you copy? It must be a very powerful race, right? Do you want to consider working for me? In the future, I will give you endless glory and wealth!”
He still believed that Gaia and Gajero were both Phantoms, but that they had copied a more powerful race.
Gajero frowned slightly and subconsciously looked at Gaia.
As the leader of the Demon Race, this was the first time Gajero had heard someone wanting to give him glory and wealth. He did not know whether to laugh or attack him directly.
Gaia took the initiative to remind Gajero, “Chief, we do not have any records of this world and this race. If we can obtain detailed information from this fool, it would not be a wasted trip!”
Gajero nodded and immediately accepted Gaia’s suggestion. He turned to Kyle and asked straightforwardly, “Your name?”
Kyle answered very arrogantly, “I am Kyle, the current first prince, the future king of this world!”
“You’re…”
Gajero was about to ask what race Kyle was from, but Gaia stopped him in time.
Gaia advised earnestly, “Chief, he thinks that the two of us are of the same race. That’s why he’s so stupid to cooperate with us. If you directly ask him about his race, won’t our identities be exposed? When that time comes, it’ll be troublesome for us to gather intelligence!”
Gajero took a deep breath. In his mind, he kept trying to come up with excuses to find out about the other party’s race.
After careful consideration, Gajero finally broke away from Gaia’s restraint and asked Kyle, “Since you are the first prince, then I want to see your greatness. You only need to answer a few questions. I want to judge whether you are worth following!”
Kyle realized that these two experts who could instantly kill Jerome seemed interested in his offer. His mood instantly became much better. He nodded indifferently and said, “Sure!”
Gajero asked with confidence, “May I ask, what race do you want to conquer the most now?”
He believed that as long as it was a member of the royal family who coveted the throne, they would naturally want to rule their own world. They would then know what race Kyle was from based on his answer.
Kyle thought for a moment and replied, “Human!”
The Human Race had rich resources and vast lands. They were always the target of the Phantoms.
Kyle’s ambition was not only to become the sovereign of the Phantom Race but also to become the greatest sovereign in the history of the Phantom Race. To be able to conquer the Human Race was a unique achievement!
Gajero soon learned the truth from the wrong channel, and he firmly believed it. Moreover, in his heart, he had set the Human Race as the target that must be completely wiped out.
Vincent, who was hiding in the space tunnel, saw that Gajero and Kyle were still unwilling to make a move. He shook his head in disappointment.
Vincent sighed resolutely, “Forget it. I must strengthen my own combat power!”
He then looked at the Rama ring on his left index finger.
His initial purpose in participating in the competition was to fuse all kinds of high-level equipment into a piece of lighter and more powerful equipment.
Vincent naturally did not want to wait any longer.
Following that, Vincent took out the space token and the Cup of Fate. He then retrieved the Cosmic Threads from deep in the tunnel.
These were the most useful and inconvenient pieces of equipment in Vincent’s hands!
Vincent held the tunnel token shouted, “Fuse!”
After seeing that the first piece of equipment had been successfully fused, Vincent then picked up the Cup of Fate and did the same thing to fuse the rest of the equipment.
The power of the Cosmic Thread was very powerful, but its size was really inconvenient. Therefore, Vincent decided to change its appearance.
Although the Cup of Fate was small, it was related to the dark magic of the demons. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, he had to modify it slightly.
Soon, Vincent looked at the ring in his hand, and the attributes of the equipment appeared in his eyes.
Equipment name: Evil Fate
Level: Universe-Level equipment
Special Ability 1: Devour. Able to devour all psionic energy and convert it into the purest psionic power.
Special Ability 2: Soul Peeling. Peel the target’s soul. The prerequisite is that the target’s level must be lower than the user’s level.
Special Ability 3: Black Hole Energy Conversion. Able to convert psionic energy into Black Hole energy, but unable to be reversed.
Special Ability 4: Order the Demon Race. Can issue orders to all low-level demons. All low-level demons are not allowed to resist!
Special Ability 5: Alchemy Furnace. Can fuse any Demon Race with the Cup of Fate and increase the attributes of the Cup of Fate. The target’s level cannot be higher than the user’s, or it will be ineffective!
Special Ability 6: Demon King’s Ravings. Can cast the ravings of the former High Priest Augustus on any target (including demons) before his death, inflicting mental damage and defilement on them. Continuous consumption of the user’s psionic power during the usage period.
Special Ability 7: God’s Affinity. The Cup of Fate is enhanced by the Protoss. It can increase the affinity of all Protoss toward the user. This ability has been inherited by the Evil Fate.
Special Ability 8: Space Key. This equipment is the only way to open the parallel space door. It can freely change the space tunnel.
Special ability 9: Cosmic Threads. Can control the mind of any target through the thread. However, the stronger the target is, the lower the success rate and the more time it would take to control the target.
Passive skills: The blessing of the evil god can continuously affect the minds of the surrounding creatures, making them irritable and cold-blooded. The user’s scope of influence will continue to expand over time until it covers an entire world. Only when the Rama Ring leaves the current world will the effect gradually decline. Otherwise, there is no way to restrain it!
Vincent looked at the new four-in-one equipment. Not only was he very satisfied, but he could not help but raise his hand in front of his eyes. He carefully observed the ring that had transformed into purple-gold in color. It had also had complex dragon patterns carved onto it.
Vincent sighed with great satisfaction, “This is a piece of god-level equipment!”
Vincent turned to look outside of the space barrier again and found that Kyle and Gajero were still chatting. He immediately withdrew his gaze helplessly and looked at the Phantom Race’s souls in front of him.
“I thought that you two would be useful but I didn’t expect the both of you to be of no use at all. Take them all!” said Vincent with a look of disdain.
He was prepared to devour all the souls into his body and never summon them again.
Suddenly, an illusory arm stretched out from Vincent’s body. Its five fingers were like hooks, instantly devouring one of the Phantom’s souls in front of him.
The moment the Phantom’s soul came into contact with the arm, the Phantom’s soul dissipated and turned into specks of starlight as it fused into the arm.
A familiar voice was soon heard.
“Leave these souls to me! I discovered that when I am in my soul state, the blood law allows me to directly absorb other souls and repair my injuries. This is much more convenient than me falling into a deep sleep!”
When Vincent heard this, he smiled happily. This was because it was his old partner, former leader of the Blood Race, Justin!
Vincent placed his hands on his hips and sighed softly, “You’re finally awake. I didn’t think that the blood law could be used in this way. Then these souls will all be yours!”
Justin did not hesitate at all. He stretched out his other arm and began to absorb all the Phantoms’ souls.
The souls disappeared one after another.
Vincent suddenly felt that there was a powerful force gradually recovering in his body!
Justin was a soul captured by Vincent using spirit binding, but because the difference in strength between the two of them was too great, he could not control him completely.
However, after Justin absorbed so many souls under Vincent’s control, he finally established a connection with Vincent, completing the final bond between the soul and the controller.
“You finally belong to me completely!”
Vincent whistled and teased with a smile on his face.
Justin replied, “Don’t be happy too early. The difference in strength between us is still there. I also know your thoughts now. This means that our relationship is still symbiotic!”
