Chapter 210 A Soul Like an Infant
Chapter 210 A Soul Like an Infant (Second Update)
Although they say it's absolutely impossible, dealing with these crises, which involve demons invading the mortal world, is Kamar-Taj's duty.
Wang decided to step in and help Luca verify the authenticity of the document.
After Luca confirmed with the other party repeatedly that the defensive forces within the Sanctuary were sufficient and the shielding barrier was functioning normally.
Even if he curses Mephisto or carries items related to him, Mephisto will not be aware of him.
Luca carefully removed the energy cube that 'sealed' the apple from Haro's mouth.
Yes, Luca, who was quite intimidated by this thing, finally decided to temporarily seal it into an energy cube using the [Dehydration Gun] to preserve it.
Firstly, it can prevent this core component of Apple from corroding and being damaged due to prolonged storage.
More importantly, it can reduce unnecessary risks arising from direct contact with this substance.
However, the moment the energy cube was taken out, the way Wang looked at Luca suddenly became somewhat strange.
"what happened?"
Noticing his gaze, Luca didn't rush to pour water to break the 'seal', but instead asked directly.
However, the next moment, a crystal-clear blue energy suddenly appeared in the king's hand.
This faint energy is clearly somewhat similar to the energy produced by the [Dehydration Gun] or rather, the [Hex Core].
"Could you be that wronged... cough cough, that beautiful, kind-hearted, and generous new dimensional demon god??"
"."
Upon hearing what Wang said, Luca was immediately speechless.
"You were trying to call me a sucker, weren't you? Did you really think I didn't hear you?!"
'Damn it, that old bastard Gu Yi took my bribes, and what exactly has she been up to behind my back?'
However, when the words were about to come out, Luca, remembering that he still needed the other party's help, could only force a stiff smile through his twitching lips and utter two words.
"no!"
To everyone's surprise, when Luca denied it, Wang himself breathed a sigh of relief, muttering to himself.
"Thank goodness, I knew it. No matter how weak a dimensional demon god is, it wouldn't be this weak after coming to Earth."
"."
"Master Wang, shall we begin the next step of the testing?"
As he spoke, Luca, his face ashen, poured a few drops of water from the cup next to him onto the energy cube.
A flash of blue light, and the energy cube on the table instantly transformed into that ordinary apple.
"Huh? This is magic I've never seen before. It's a very sophisticated way of applying dimensional energy."
"If you say so, then it is."
Luca was speechless at the sight of the fat man in front of him.
Fortunately, although the other party seems unreliable and in line with the Ancient One, their actual skills are by no means lacking.
With a flick of his hand, several circular golden magic arrays immediately appeared.
Complex incantations swirled rapidly around the apple, seemingly performing an extremely sophisticated deep scan.
Although the king said he didn't quite believe it, he had great confidence in the defensive capabilities of the Sanctuary.
But when it came to testing the apple, his expression was very serious, as if he were facing a formidable enemy.
However.
After a long while, the two people inside the Sanctuary stared at each other across the apple on the table, both seeing a hint of confusion and distrust in each other's eyes.
"No, you're trying to mess with me by bringing me a regular apple, aren't you?"
"Brother, you went to all that trouble, all that fancy stuff, and you didn't even find a single clue?!"
Although neither of them spoke, their facial expressions clearly conveyed their thoughts.
"master."
"wait!"
Wang abruptly raised his hand to interrupt Luca, followed by a flurry of colorful, dazzling lights. This time, Luca could even hear the other person muttering to himself.
It's all spells like 'Cytorak's Eye of Detection' and 'Agomot's Detection of Evil'.
Luca even vaguely heard the guy say something like "Orange's Evil Resonance" when the blue light in his hand was flashing.
"What the hell is this 'evil resonance'?! Where am I evil?! How did it resonate?! If the Ancient One wants to use Hextech power, she can use it. If she doesn't know the name, she should ask me! What kind of rubbish name did she come up with?"
However, half an hour passed.
The king before him was covered in sweat, but his face was firm, and he looked at Luca with a resolute tone.
"It's just a regular apple!"
As he said this, a hint of heartache appeared on Wang's face.
He just acted impulsively and unleashed a whole bunch of spells without thinking.
Although most of these reconnaissance spells are very low-cost, or even almost costless, their sheer number can still be a burden.
The main problem is that it's one thing if the detection doesn't find anything once or twice, but seeing Luca's confident look, the king, who had used the detection spells so many times, began to doubt his own abilities.
Only after exhausting all means did he regain his firm belief.
only.
When Luca mentioned Gina, Wang, though somewhat reluctant to leave the New York Sanctum, still opened a portal and connected to the ward, acting as a temporary doctor.
The conviction that had been firmly established was shattered once again.
"That's not right, it shouldn't be like this! How could this be?"
Wang paced back and forth in place, as if his original worldview and cognition had been greatly impacted.
Under his examination, Gina showed no abnormalities or demonic aura whatsoever; on the contrary, she was excessively pure.
It's as if the soul is a blank sheet of paper, where all human desires and evil thoughts have been wiped away, yet there are no traces of being cut or damaged.
This situation was completely contrary to his previous understanding.
'That shouldn't be the case. How can someone with memories not have desires? How can someone who can perceive the world not harbor evil thoughts?'
Finally, realizing that things might be getting serious, the king gritted his teeth, pulled out a bunch of amulets and magical artifacts from his room, and stuffed them into Luca's hands.
"Take these first. This one detects evil, this one senses the aura of demons, and this one..."
After giving his explanation, Wang continued.
"Wait for me, wait for me to go back and check the records. This kind of situation must be recorded in the books of Kamar-Taj!"
"Give me your phone number. I'll contact you as soon as I've found out what happened, or if there's any news from Master Gu Yi!"
Without waiting for Luca's bewildered expression, Wang opened a portal and headed back to the library in Kamar-Taj to look up information.
However, just before stepping into the portal, Wang stopped again, scratched his bald head somewhat awkwardly, and whispered something.
"Um, could you please restore the Sanctuary's network?"
"Don't worry, I definitely won't go online to do anything else until this matter is clarified."
Upon hearing this, Luca nodded, somewhat speechless.
Hello!
next moment.
The scene flashed before his eyes, and Luca had reappeared on the street in front of the Sanctuary.
"."
"What an unreliable old man leading a bunch of unreliable kids!"
"I'll figure something out myself!"
