Chapter 340: The Shadow Behind It

The earth began to tremble again.

Jenn put his sword back into its sheath, picked up his pocket watch and glanced at the time on it. The earthquake represented the gradual collapse of the seal, but to Jenn's confusion, how much time had passed since they had left the area. Things weren't as bad as Jenn had imagined, and although the earthquakes were constant, they were spaced out for a long time, and the tremors weren't felt strongly. This shows that the speed of the seal's collapse is far behind Jenn's imagination. And the only possibility of this state of affairs is that the seal that suppresses the ancient evil is stronger than the war imagined. If we extrapolate like this, then there is only one answer -- in addition to the fragments of the Sunglasses and the Death Shadow Gate, there are other artifacts used here as the core of the seal.

Moreover, the level of the opponent is much higher than the fragments of the Sunglasses and the Door of Death Shadow.

But this thought Jenn only turned around in his mind, the collapse of the seal is inevitable, it is like a dilapidated house, maybe a solid pillar can support it for a few more moments, but it will still collapse in the end, the only difference is the length of time.

If Jenn was a true hero, then now he should do everything he can to seal this ancient evil, even at the risk of his life. But it's a pity that he is not a hero, but a demon king, for the demon king, there is nothing bad about the ancient evil things running out to make trouble, on the contrary, Jenn even raised his hands to welcome it -- and he didn't need his help, and he didn't suspect that he could still mess up the human world, how could he refuse such a good thing? As long as you don't hurt your own interests, then the more people the ancient evil will kill. The better for Jenn. And on the other hand, if it doesn't have a long-term eye, it wants to attack Jenn's territory. Then Jenn wouldn't mind being the Great Lord who stepped forward to save his realm again -- he hadn't done it before, anyway.

Now that Jenn only cares about the situation of the others, Tinidel shouldn't die so easily. Darkness is a superior element, and even ancient evil creatures will find it difficult to deal with her. Needless to say, the Doomsday Cultist Jenn didn't care at all, but he wished that the other party would get the fragments and run away, because then Klein's plan would be over, and he wouldn't implicate himself, so everyone could be considered happy. It's just that Jenn also knows that this is unlikely, the Doomsday Cultist who got the fragment is a demon from the lower realm, although Jenn still doesn't know the true identity of the other party. But in this case, it is estimated that the unlucky guy will be able to make a difference. As for those Holy Spirits, they were not even in the scope of Jenn's consideration, he now wished that the other party was all dead, but even if he lived, it didn't matter -- although the Holy Spirit could possess and descend on humans, they could only obtain each other's own memories, and Jenn thought that there were no problems or doubts about his performance in front of that group of adventurers, so it was unlikely that he would be caught by the old rascal of Amunla.

And then there'.........

Thinking of this, Jenn turned his head and looked at Aina and Tillise not far away. Of course he knew what Aina was doing, because after transforming Aina into a succubus. In Jenn's introduction to the family race, a new trait information has been "refreshed".

[Mission: For succubi, their patron is higher than a qiē. In the eyes of the succubus, all the truths in this world, the meaning of zài and the glory of all things are attributed to this. At your fingertips. They have abandoned their once narrow ideas and ways of thinking and have regained their lives. A qiē that re-sees the world in a way that has never been seen before. That feeling of happiness and satisfaction is the supreme honor in the eyes of the succubus. Therefore, they will try their best to change the way of thinking of others, and induce them to abandon their own beliefs and ideas of achievement. Plunge into the brave new world -- "Abandon the invisible shackles that bind you, and you will have a brighter and better future" (Spirit Induction +5)]

This is the attribute that Jenn wants to farm out the most. But I didn't expect to get my hands on it until now. But if you think about it carefully, Jenn is also relieved, he was transformed into a succubus by Jenn before. Including the first Lycia and her two maids, plus Tina, who had already been seeded by Jenn, they were not very sociable. After all, these people are either flowers in the greenhouse, or nobles, and they rarely come into contact with others on weekdays. But Aina is different, as an adventurer, Aina is obviously very proficient in communication, and Jenn has noticed that this half-elf girl is easy to mingle with everyone in the adventure group, and her lively and cheerful personality is obviously more suitable for communication, communication and mental brainwashing.

It seems that there are indeed a lot of issues to consider when transforming succubi.

Jenn looked at the half-elf girl who was smiling and whispering in Tilis's ear. Shaking his head, Jenn had only targeted the nobility before, and at that time his idea was just to rely on the racial characteristics of the succubus to infiltrate the ruling class, so that he could better manipulate it. But Aina had a surprise for him, which made Jenn once again consider the possibility of "broadening" the hunt. In addition to nobles, those commoners, adventurers, and people with other professions can be targeted by Jenn. The wider the scope of application of a race, the higher the probability that it will survive, and the three-dimensional penetration from top to bottom and bottom to top is far more effective than simply manipulating from above, isn't it?

Thinking of this, Jenn couldn't help but glance at Tilis, whose eyes had lost their clarity at the moment, and stood there like a puppet.

I wonder what kind of characteristics this priest lady will bring to her nascent race after being transformed into a succubus?

After a short break, the trio hit the road again. Jenn also sensed that there was a little more expectation and dependence in Tilis's gaze towards him, but Tilis did not immediately express her desire to completely surrender to her demand. This is also normal, because the skill of the succubus is [Spiritual Induction] rather than [Mental Brainwashing], and the brainwashed person is just forcibly instilled with completely new information, and this method only requires a firm will and belief or even a little opportunity to be cracked. However, spiritual induction is to induce the other party to think and make judgments in the direction they want, so that although it will take a long time, once successful, it will become the most unbreakable cornerstone.

Although all kinds of thoughts were spinning in his head, Jenn's footsteps did not stop. Of course, with Tillise here, they couldn't have walked too fast, but Jenn didn't care that much about such trivial matters now, since the seal hadn't been completely broken, they had enough time to get out of here.

In the aristocratic quarter, those once glorious buildings have long since been reduced to ruins, and time seems to have lost its meaning here. There is nothing here except the wreckage scattered on the streets. Even those monsters didn't seem to have any intention of appearing here, or they had already felt the aura of the awakening of the ancient evil creatures, so they left one after another. That's a good thing for Jenn and the others. In fact, as they moved forward, the number of monsters was getting smaller and smaller, and the high-level monsters inside might only be a little more wary of the aura of the ancient evil creatures, but the low-level monsters outside couldn't resist this crazy aura at all, and they had stayed away from this dangerous place at this moment. On the other hand, the awakening of the Ancient Evil Cult helped Jenn and the others clear the way and make it easier for them to leave the area.

There was a dead silence in the streets, except for the footsteps of the crowd, among whom Jenn remained unhurried. Aina, on the other hand, held Tillis's hand, watching warily to both sides, while following closely behind Jenn. After all, this is the Lost City, the home base of monsters, and no matter how safe it seems right now, it can't let your guard down. Tillis, on the other hand, let Aina grab her hand and walk forward as if sleepwalking, judging from her expression, it was obvious that the girl had fallen into Aina's temptation and could not extricate herself.

"Boom Rumble ..............."

And just as they were turning the corner, suddenly, the earth began to shake again. This time, Jenn frowned, then drew his sword with his right hand, and quickly gestured to Aina with his left hand, signaling her to step back. I don't know why, at this moment, Jenn suddenly had a rather bad premonition, as if something was about to happen.

As it turned out, Jenn's hunch was quite accurate.

Before Aina could retreat and leave according to Jenn's instructions, she saw the dilapidated aristocratic building next to her suddenly collapse with a roar, and then a black shadow burst out of it, and a cold light pierced the dense fog in the blink of an eye, and attacked in the direction where Aina was.

Sneak attack?

Seeing this scene, Jenn also raised his eyebrows, and then the long sword in his hand suddenly burst into starry light, forming an impenetrable barrier in front of Aina. Only the sound of "dingding" collision was heard, and a series of sparks flashed in front of the half-elf ranger girl, and the black shadow that missed the hit immediately retreated like a ghost. But Jenn was obviously unwilling to let go of the other party, and at the moment when the black shadow retreated, the light of the long sword in his hand immediately merged into one, and then Jenn flung his right hand upward, and then saw the long sword in his hand rush forward with a silver afterimage. And the other party obviously didn't expect Jenn to dare to throw away the weapon in his hand in this situation, his movements suddenly slowed down, and he hurriedly dodged to the side, and even so, the long sword thrown by Jenn still grazed the arm of the black shadow.

This was a powerful blow from the legendary swordsman, and even a little rubbing it was enough to cause a lot of damage, and in the face of Jenn's attack, the black shadow also screamed, and then flew backwards, crashing into the ruins, and immediately kicked up a cloud of dust.

Almost at the same time, a furious voice erupted from the dust.

"Jenn! I knew it was you!! (To be continued......)
