Please call me CyberGhost King

Chapter 473 Demon and the King of the Dead

Speaking of demons, Jericho Swain must be present, because he has actually been targeted by the demon.

But Jericho Swain is indeed a genius. The devil targeted him and found the right person, but also the wrong person.

People who are targeted by the devil will usually become the devil's puppets, carriers, or food, and few will have a good ending.

But Jericho Swain directly turned against Tian Gang. Not only was he not controlled by the devil, he controlled the devil instead and used the devil's power for his own benefit. He can be said to be a true genius.

Jericho Swain was called over, and when he saw Vladimir and LeBlanc in the hall, his expression didn't change much.

Although one of the two was his enemy and the other was his competitor, Jericho Swain was still able to ignore them. He just bowed respectfully to Ke Ling.

"Sir, are you looking for me?"

Jericho Swain said to Ke Ling.

Jericho Swain's attitude made Vladimir and LeBlanc next to him feel complicated. This guy was simply too arrogant and didn't take them seriously at all.

Of course, this was Vladimir's own idea. He had always regarded Jericho Swain as a competitor and had always been thinking about how to avoid being suppressed by this guy.

In comparison, LeBlanc felt a little relieved. This Jericho Swain, just as she thought, didn't care about the death of his parents at all. In this guy's heart, family affection ranked very low.

Jericho Swain does not bear grudges, which is of course a good thing for LeBlanc. Otherwise, it would be quite stressful to always work with someone who has killed his parents, especially since Jericho Swain is very respected.

At this moment, LeBlanc felt a little regretful. Why did she choose Jericho Swain in the first place? Couldn't she have chosen someone who was not so good? This guy was really a big trouble.

Ke Ling didn't care what Leblanc and Vladimir thought. He looked at Jericho Swain and asked:
"Swain, are you being targeted by a demon?"

Ke Ling asked directly, so directly that Jericho Swain was stunned.

"demon?"

Jericho Swain thought for a moment. He pondered the reason why Ke Ling asked this and the strange things that happened to him.

"Yes, has anything weird ever happened to you?"

Ke Ling added that Jericho Swain’s perception of the demon should not be strong at the moment, because he has not really touched the other party and has not conducted in-depth research.

“Strange things seem to really happen.”

Jericho Swain thought about it and realized that he had indeed encountered strange things, things that he could not understand, and they were related to his parents.

"My parents, they were chasing a disembodied voice, chattering in the darkness of the Immortal Bastion, like the cry of a raven"

"And I also heard the ravens' screams."

Jericho Swain spoke up, this was the strange thing that had happened to him recently, ever since he had exposed his parents' conspiracy.

"?"

LeBlanc and Vladimir on the side both had question marks on their faces. They looked at each other and saw suspicion in each other's eyes.

The two people's eyes were talking to each other, and each was questioning whether the other had done something.

Of course, since LeBlanc was the one who manipulated the Jericho Swain incident, she was mainly the one being questioned by Vladimir.

But LeBlanc can guarantee that she is definitely not doing anything wrong. Jericho Swain's parents actually have a secret?!
This caught Leblanc off guard. She thought the couple had been framed by her, but it turned out that their deaths were not unjust! No wonder Jericho Swain didn't hate her. It turned out that this guy had really found the problem!
At this moment, LeBlanc's heart was racing, and her mood was extremely confused, because she realized that even without Lord Keling, Jericho Swain would be a huge hidden danger in the future and would undermine their power. He was a huge unknown that they did not know about.

"That's right, that's it."

After listening to Jericho Swain's words, Ke Ling nodded and said, Raven, that's right, it's this demon.

Ram, the demon that represents "secrets".

There are many demons like this in this world, including the demon that represents pain, the demon that represents nightmares, the demon that represents greed, the demon that represents fear, the demon that represents joy, and so on. These demons all possess extraordinary powers.

If a mortal can master the power of demons, it will naturally be a step towards success, directly transforming from a dish on the table to a eater at the table. In the future, Jericho Swain will rely on the power of Ram to directly subvert the pattern of "Noxus".

"My Lord, what will this demon do to me?"

After getting Ke Ling's confirmation, Jericho Swain became a little nervous. He frowned and began to worry that the demon would harm him. This was normal. Could the demon be kind? If it didn't harm him, would it help him?

"Of course it wants you dead."

Sure enough, Ke Ling's words confirmed Jericho Swain's thoughts. The devil really wanted his life.

"This raven is a symbol of a demon named Ram. It is a secret eater that feeds on the secrets of the world. It wants you to die, and after you die it will devour all your secrets."

Ke Ling spoke up, which made Jericho Swain frown, and also made LeBlanc and Vladimir feel a little nervous.

This demon is indeed a bit scary. It actually feeds on people's secrets. Who doesn't have any secrets in their heart?

"Swain, now when you see a dead person, can you see something strange? Something that others can't see."

Ke Ling looked at Jericho Swain and confirmed with him again.

"Yes, my lord. I shall see darkness, clouds of carrion crows, gnawing at the bodies of the dead."

Jericho Swain's expression froze. Lord Keling was right again. He had indeed seen this scene. Whenever there was a death, he would see this scene. The crows would fly over and take away everything, everything they had eaten.

"Now it seems that those crows are gnawing at the secrets of those people."

Jericho Swain spoke up. He just understood what was going on, which made him feel relieved. If this demon was just waiting for someone to die before eating the body, then it wouldn't be that scary. At least it wouldn't kill him. It would just eat the secrets. What's the point of keeping so many secrets when people are dead?

"It hides in the Immortal Fortress because there are enough secrets here. It lives very happily here, and you are the ones who feed it."

Ke Ling spoke, his eyes looking at Vladimir and Leblanc. These two "Black Roses" have made great contributions. Of course, the same goes for those "Noxus" nobles. No one can shirk responsibility, as none of them are clean.

But how to say it?

Jericho Swain finally completed the comeback with the help of Ram, but it was also a one-tap victory. The "Black Rose" and the nobles reaped the fruits of their own actions.

"."

LeBlanc and Vladimir looked at each other. They really didn't know about this, otherwise they would definitely not leave that demon alone.

"Sir, how should we deal with this demon?"

Jericho Swain asked. Since Lord Keling had asked, he felt that Lord must have some ideas about this demon and must want to find a way to deal with the problem of this demon.

"Find it out, of course."

Ke Ling said that this Ram represents secrets and has certain predictive abilities. It is really hard to find it if it is hidden.

"How do I find it?"

Jericho Swain was confused, and LeBlanc and Vladimir were also bewildered, as they had no experience in this area.

"There is a way to possibly draw it out, and that is to put you on the brink of death. It will set its sights on you, and might come over and try to eat your secrets."

Ke Ling looked at Jericho Swain. This was a reasonable guess, otherwise what use would Swain be if he was targeted?
"."

Ke Ling's words made Jericho Swain tremble. He seemed to see a raven flying towards him, and saw the familiar darkness rushing towards him, trying to take away everything from him. In a trance, he seemed to see the devil's eyes burning in the darkness.

"Swain, what do you see?"

Ke Ling's words suddenly sobered Jericho Swain up. He realized that what had just happened was not just his fantasy, but that there really was some creature influencing him!
"Raven, the Devil's Eye is that demon!"

Jericho Swain spoke, the devil was tempting him, tempting him with power, the devil promised him a future, a future that concerned him overthrowing Bron Darkwill and controlling "Noxus"!

However, this future was obviously not right and a bit out of touch with reality, because Brown Darkwill was already dead.

Jericho Swain looked strange. Was there something wrong with the demon? How could he have come up with such a mistake? How could he be tempted with such a future?
"It looks like it's on guard."

Ke Ling smiled. This Ram was a little anxious, and this guy's ability obviously did not foresee his appearance.

"Swain, I leave this matter to you. Find the truth buried in the Immortal Bastion and find the incarnation of the ancient power."

Ke Ling gave this task to Jericho Swain. With his professional skills, this guy is suitable to deal with Ram.

Ram has been hunting dying people and devouring their secrets. This demon who represents secrets is not as good as Jericho Swain. Jericho Swain saw a secret that even Ram could not see, a way to manipulate Ram.

"Yes, my lord."

Jericho Swain took on the task. Now the Immortal Fortress was completely open to him. He could explore the secrets to his heart's content. Even the secrets of the "Black Rose" were open to him. He could try his best to find ways to control Ram.

"After talking about Ram, let's talk about Modkaiser."

After arranging the matter of the demon Ram, Ke Ling looked at Leblanc and Vladimir again. Speaking of Mordekaiser, these two are very important. After all, it was they who sent Mordekaiser back to the underworld and sealed the armor.

"Mordekaiser's armor is sealed deep within the Immortal Bastion."

LeBlanc spoke up and said that the name that must never be mentioned has always been entangled with "Noxus". If he returns again, he will definitely appear in "Noxus".

However, when that name was mentioned now, Leblanc no longer felt fear, because the oppression that Lord Keling gave her was even more terrifying, far beyond what Modkaiser could compare to.

The soul-level oppression brought by Lord Ke Ling is even more terrifying than the terrifying soul of the King of the Dead returning from the underworld.

Ke Ling really didn't take Mordekaiser seriously, because his current soul strength was not comparable to that of Mordekaiser.

Modkaiser killed those people and brought them back to the underworld to form his undead army. However, Ke Ling absorbed countless souls. He alone was an army!
Mordekaiser's undead army was like a buffet in front of Ke Ling. Even Mordekaiser was just a hard bone that needed to be chewed. Ke Ling was looking forward to his return.

It just so happened that Ke Ling also wanted to go to the underworld to take a look. He now had a path dependence, which was to control and integrate the soul interface first, and then slowly erode this world.

For Ke Ling, getting Modkaiser out was a win-win situation.

"Do you really want to do that?"

Leblanc and Vladimir both thought Ke Ling's idea was exaggerated. Why release Mordekaiser? Wouldn't it be better to just suppress him? Why bother?
With LeBlanc and Vladimir's perspectives, they obviously couldn't understand Ke Ling's approach. They just thought it was better to have less trouble than more. It wouldn't be a big deal to leave Modkaiser there, as long as no one was summoned to summon him.

"If you don't understand, just do it."

Ke Ling was too lazy to explain, he had to do it anyway. Mordekaiser was a key chess piece, the chess piece that helped him open the gate to the underworld. The other one was the god of death. The gods of death in "Runeland" were also chess pieces that opened the gate to the underworld, but they didn't come here at all.

Many people have died because of Ke Ling, but until now, Ke Ling has never seen the "Eternal Hunter Twins". It is impossible that all those people are not under the care of the "Eternal Hunter Twins", right?

Even if it's not under the jurisdiction of the "Eternal Hunter Twins" Kindred, there have to be other gods of death to come, right?
It turned out that there were none at all, so Ke Ling could only collect those souls himself. He didn't know what was going on with those gods of death. It couldn't be that they didn't come because they were afraid of death, right?

If you think about it carefully, it seems that this possibility is not impossible. After all, the god of death can also die.
