Wizard's Journey

Chapter 291 Three-Pepper Ghost

The witch hunter's assistance in the capture of the black wizard's escape is a heinous crime that violates the rules of the Holy Tower, enough to warrant Green being imprisoned in the Holy Tower's dungeon for five hundred years.

Five hundred years...

Even with the reduction of his guilt by the Medal of Honor (Level 3) and Raffi's involuntary corruption, Green would still have to remain imprisoned for about two to three hundred years, subject to the punishment of the Santa Rules.

He slowly exhaled, and the eyes beneath the mask of truth slowly closed. The next moment, he suddenly opened them!

A sharp glint flashed, and Green looked up at Hattori Mizo and shouted, "Good!"

Swish!Swish!Swish!Swish!

At this moment, whether it was Hattori Mizo, Kuyak, Loki, or even the Three Pepper Demon, they all looked at Green with disbelief.

Has he gone mad?!

Agreeing to the condition of the black wizard Hattori Hizo means simultaneously declaring war on the three demons, Kujaku, and Lokiru, and it will be a life-or-death battle!

Leaving aside the powerful and terrifying Three Pepper Demon, even Kuyak and Lokiru are outstanding demon hunter elites among first-level demon hunter wizards.

Green helped the dark wizard escape, and the three of them, in order to stop such a heinous crime, would not care about the consequences of killing Green, and could even be said to be righteous and justified.

At this moment, Green was already a dead man in Rocky's eyes, and he would never look at him again.

At this moment, the only thing that mattered to Lokiru was how to make good use of this dead man.

Thus, Lokilu looked at his wife, Kuyak, whom he had secretly married not long ago.

Beneath his loose, golden hair, Kuyak stared blankly at Green, his eyes a mixture of emotional mockery and rational disbelief.

Instinctively, Kuyak's eyes became more serious, as if some doubt had arisen.

That's why, after Kuyak signaled to Lokiru, he stopped fighting the Three Pepper Demon and quietly retreated some distance, seemingly to assess the situation.

After all, no matter what conflicts they had, the bond of life and death they forged during that demon-hunting expedition could not be erased.

On the contrary, Hattori Hisō, who was already in dire straits, suddenly burst into laughter with a surge of heroic spirit.

"Haha! Green, as the miracle of this year's Holy Tower Showdown, go and show these old guys the terror of the Pale Nightmare!"

While struggling desperately within the giant web of five phantom skulls, Hattori Mizo urged Green to fight for a sliver of hope.

Green has already assessed the situation on the court.

Finally, Green's eyes, filled with intense seriousness, locked onto the three-pepper demon hunter wizard dressed in a black wizard's robe. He let out a soft, relieved breath, as if he had made up his mind.

With a single swipe of his hand, a black dimensional rift appeared, and his palm reached into it.

Grimm is actually going to fight this terrifyingly powerful demon hunter dark wizard?!

"Hehehe, hehehehe... Little wizard, it seems it's time to let you experience true darkness and terror."

The Three-Pepper Demon's voice was deep and hoarse, its dark red eyes like two will-o'-the-wisps, and its face, wrinkled and tangled like withered tree bark, gradually changed from intimidating to calm. The spinal magic staff in its hand slowly rose higher, aimed at Green.

At that moment, a feeling of his soul being locked in a trap arose, and this faint but intense sense of crisis made Green pause involuntarily.

"Soul Touch".

With a pop, the translucent bubble on the Three Pepper Ghost Spine Magic Wand burst open, revealing a dark red skull ghost face. The next moment, it transformed into an incredibly fast beam of light, silently shooting towards Grin.

This……

This feeling...

In Green's vision, the world at this moment seemed to have become a semi-transparent world of black and white. At the same time, under the slowed-down dynamic vision of the Face of Truth, the Three-Pepper Demon was like a pale sun radiating infinite light.

Everything in front of him was completely enveloped by the white radiance of the Three Pepper Demon. In the small patch of shadow remaining on his back, some scattered soul flames flickered and shone uncertainly.

Is this an attack from the spirit world?

It turns out that in the world of souls, the gap between oneself and the other has reached such a level that one feels so small and insignificant.

Perhaps, even if he manages to help Hattori Hirotō escape this time, he will be seriously injured for a long time...

Thinking this, Green murmured bitterly beneath his truthful face, "First level of wild instinct, activate."

At the same time, a purple key was raised high in Green's scale-covered palm, emitting a faint, dark, mysterious, and oppressive purple-black light.

"Hmm? This is the Key of Friendship with the Holy Mark, but it doesn't seem to be the Key of Friendship with the Holy Mark in the ordinary sense!"

Beneath the gray flames of the dead souls above his head, the Three Pepper Demon's dark red eyes were fixed on the Key of Friendship, a stigma held high in Green's hand.

On the other side, in the center of Kuyak's palm, a blue holy mark, the Key of Friendship, was spinning incredibly fast.

After his eyes flickered for a long time, Kuyak finally clenched his fist and put away the Key of Friendship, seemingly extremely reluctant to use up one of the chances of the Key of Friendship.

"I never expected this guy to possess such a high-grade Key of Friendship, no wonder..."

Loki's expression changed slightly. The will that was faintly erupting from the purple holy mark Key of Friendship in Green's hand was truly terrifying.

But as Grimm raised the Key of Friendship of the Holy Mark, a hysterical, painful roar erupted from beneath the Mask of Truth.

"what……"

The pain of a seared soul is inescapable, and one cannot faint from it.

However, what truly terrified Green was that the Three Pepper Demon's soul-touching sorcery was aimed at Green's soul fire, directly targeting his own primordial soul flame.

The primordial soul flame is the source of a wizard's continuous soul growth; once injured, it becomes extremely troublesome.

Through the soul-touching magic, following that inexplicable connection in Green's soul, in an instant, the myna bird, which was idly dozing on the giant crystal vessel sealing Raffia on the far East Coral Island, jumped up with a start.

"Gah! Who? Who's tickling me? Damn it, get out here, Eighth Master!"

The hall was quiet, save for the echo of the myna bird.

After a long while, there was still no movement. The myna bird looked around suspiciously for a long time, but there was nothing there. It couldn't help but mutter to itself, "Damn it, what's going on? No, I have to make sure Zelat prepares some good food for me to eat later. This is really scary."

On the other side, Green on the Gem Sea thought he was about to suffer a severe soul injury, but to his surprise, all the pain completely disappeared in the next instant.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Green stared at the Three Peppers Ghost with disbelief, finding it hard to believe that the opponent would hesitate at such a crucial moment.

On the other hand, Three Pepper Ghost stared at Green with an equally incredulous expression.

Just now, when the Three-Pepper Ghost's Soul Touch Sorcery attempted to impact its primordial soul by following Green's soul fire, its enormous, sky-covering claw was so powerful that even its full-force soul attack couldn't damage a single fingernail of the opponent's claw...

What kind of terrifying monster is protecting his original soul?

Click!

At the same time, a black crack tens of meters long appeared in the sky, and countless tiny blood-red eyes peered into the wizarding world from the other side of the crack.

All the wizards present couldn't help but look up.

Green felt uneasy and anxious.

I wonder what kind of creature they'll arrange for me this time, since that giant bird was eaten by the Black Sota Saint Mark Wizard last time.

If it were a low-level creature, Green would have no choice but to run away.

However, no matter how hard Green sensed it, the monster he sensed seemed to be no different from the giant bird he had seen before, and it was even unknown whether it was stronger.

Although he was uneasy inside, at least outwardly, Grimm calmed down the moment the Key of Friendship was activated.

Ok?

Grimm sensed something, and his eyes darted rapidly beneath the Mask of Truth. Six figures burning with gray dead soul flames rushed towards him from all directions at incredible speed.

Green's face turned pale.

Just now, Green witnessed the strength of these soul slaves. With the blessing of the dead soul flames and certain soul magic, each soul slave burning with dead soul flames was indeed comparable to a creature with the strength of a first-level life form.

Coupled with their perfectly coordinated attacks, if Green were to fight them alone, he could only face two opponents at a time.

"twitter……"

Suddenly, a four-winged bird soul slave rushing towards Green cried out in alarm. With a "whoosh," its body was involuntarily thrown backwards towards the dark crack in the sky, as if it had been pulled in by some kind of vortex hurricane.

creak!

From the depths of the crevice, a giant crab claw, over ten meters long, extended with incredible speed. With a sharp "crack," the four-winged giant bird was instantly sliced ​​in two as if it were paper. Feathers and blood rained down as the two severed pieces fell.

Clean and efficient, bloody and cruel!

Taking advantage of the moment when the other five soul slaves were in fear, Green was overjoyed and a spatial distortion appeared directly below the dark rift in the sky. Together with the countless tiny blood-red eyes behind the dark rift, they looked down at the group flying on the sea of ​​gems.
