Mystery: From the Shadow World

Chapter 114 Encounter
Even though Philip had assumed a worse-case scenario, he didn't think Qilingos would be immune to the toxin in the biological toxin bottle. After all, he was just a "Wind-loving One," and that wouldn't change.

If done properly, it might have miraculous effects, but it's impossible to rely on this alone. While Philip was thinking, he suddenly found that drowsiness and sleepiness were gradually lingering, and his brain, which had been able to barely think, completely sent out a signal that it wanted to go on strike.

Rubbing his brows, he suddenly smiled helplessly, then fell backwards, trying his best to relax his body and mind.

At the intersection of Backlund's East District and the Bridge District, outside a certain townhouse, Philip, with a bunch of extraordinary items stuffed on his body, remained invisible, suppressing his footsteps to a silent level as he paced around.

This townhouse was located in a narrow alley, and it was highly likely that two of the residents had already been taken care of by Qilingos, but the police were not concerned about it, and the people involved did not have sufficient financial resources or the desire to seek help from others.

Every day required the flesh and blood and soul of a person. In a place like Backlund, it was impossible to make any waves. There were too many people. Philip gave up the idea of sneaking in. In his visible vision, he lifted his sleeve to reveal the blue crystal pendant wrapped around his wrist.

The blue color hung low in the night. Philip closed his eyes and murmured something softly. It was not until more than ten seconds later, when the blue crystal began to swing freely, that he stopped murmuring and opened his eyes again.

The large swing made his heartbeat suddenly stop, and his slightly shrunken sapphire pupils seemed to have experienced a stimulation that was enough to be called terrifying. They were gradually covered with scarlet, and he fell into a stage of stalemate between reason and madness.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Thin and sharp wind blades shot out and cut across Philip's cheek, leaving several blood marks on the fair skin, but they turned into fragments with the subsequent shattering sound and dissipated into white light.

At the same time, the convex mirror used to provide lighting for the living room in the apartment next door cracked and quickly broke into several large pieces, which scattered on the ground and broke into a pile of small pieces.

Philip, or rather Jane Charlotte, appeared on the right side of the convex mirror. His slightly narrowed eyes quickly scanned the surroundings and finally determined the direction from which the attacker launched the attack.

On the top floor of a house not far away, a man in his thirties with a distinctive wide chin and dark green eyes stood there quietly. His cruel expression paused slightly, and he muttered to himself with some doubt:
"A, 'witch'?"

Seeing the girl in a white shirt, brown trousers, leather boots, and even gloves and a monocle, even Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilingos couldn't help but shake his head and said with a hoarse laugh that was somewhat indifferent and ruthless:

"Oh, what a strange outfit."

"appease"!
Philip had no other extra thoughts at all. He just used the soothing ability of the "Eye of the Heart" and suppressed the restlessness and excitement in his heart. He rubbed his left thumb to the edge of his mouth and bit it with his teeth. The drop of blood that seeped out was dripped directly onto the silver-white ring.

If it weren't for the "mirror substitute" provided by "Silver White", I would not have had any means to perfectly avoid this attack. The ability just now was to make the target go crazy. After Philip roughly estimated his ability to bear it, he temporarily gained a little more confidence.

Just as he was about to start fighting, a visible strong wind suddenly appeared around Qilingos in the distance, wrapping him up, and then he immediately flew away.

Oh no, this guy is trying to run away!
Upon seeing this, Philip immediately took out the Bloodthirsty Heart from his pocket anxiously, then picked up a piece of glass fragment on the ground, ready to bleed and spread his wings to see if he could continue to follow the other party and wait for an opportunity to summon the messenger.

However, the sound of the flames flickering in his mind brought his movements to a sudden halt. The sudden strong sense of crisis was like a huge wave, slamming Philip, who had been immersed in his own world, towards the direction of the truth. The next moment.

The scene in front of him suddenly changed. Several sharp wind blades were already in front of him, reflected in Philip's pupils, and were about to pierce his head in the next moment.

"nightmare"!
Qilingos did not run away. In fact, he had already used the power of "Nightmare" at some point and directly pulled him into the dream, while his main body had already dealt him a life-threatening attack.

The time for reaction was too short, so Philip did not use the extraordinary item that was constantly trying to influence him and was unable to fully integrate it. Instead, he relied on his own ability to fall backwards and block it with his wrist.

puff!
Blood quickly spurted out of the long wound, splashing onto the ground in front of him. The white shirt sleeves were quickly stained red with blood, and even seemed to spread to other parts of his body.

Hiss. Philip tried to move his five fingers, and when he found that his body could still hold on, he clenched his fists. Regardless of the rapidly flowing blood, he tore off both sleeves and quickly tied them around the wound to stop the bleeding.

Qi Lingos, who was not far away, had a hint of surprise in his eyes. It seemed that he couldn't figure out how the person in front of him escaped from the dream he created. However, the "creeping hunger" that had been fed and the most important commission that came next made him not want to stay here and continue taking risks.

As long as Duke Negan holds a similar party in the future and attends it in person, he still has a chance as he possesses the disguise ability of the "Faceless Man"!

The cold wind in the evening gradually became violent and enveloped Qilingos' entire body. Relying on this strong wind, the latter's body gradually flew up.

I have been discovered in this area and cannot stay any longer. I must go somewhere else, hide, and wait for an opportunity. Qi Lingos looked at the guy in front of him who was trying to confront him with disdain, turned around and prepared to leave.

He had already figured out a lot about the other party's situation. If he wasn't worried about causing more trouble, using the power of "Priest of Light" would be enough to send this guy to a cruel death!

However, this action made Philip's expression freeze for a moment.

Then, he pulled the corner of his mouth open and pressed his bloody left thumb to his face, wiping away the excess blood, leaving a red mark that went from deep to shallow.

Philip took out the "Bloodthirsty Heart", pressed it to the ground and began to absorb the blood that had flowed out previously. After adapting for these days, the former finally accepted the blood of him, the "werewolf", and became usable.

In just a few seconds, the translucent heart emitted a faint but brilliant red light, gradually expanding into a ball of light and sinking into Philip's body, or rather, sinking into the surface of the skin in a form imperceptible to the naked eye.
