Secret: The Witch's House Traitor

Ince Zangwill eventually managed to escape from the Chanis Gate with Saint Selina's ashes, even though the seal in his hand became unusually active due to the influence of the full moon.

Countless black, cold, and slippery threads were flying around trying to bind him. Ince Zangwill used all the undead spirits and ghosts in his unique "Underworld" as shields to block the attacking threads.

At this time, Ince Zangwill was at his weakest ever. He had a limp in one leg and a gunshot wound in the chest. All the undead spirits that he had contracted with were restrained by the 'Ashes of Saint Selina'. The Word of the Dead that could bypass the flesh and blood body to protect the spirit was stolen by the '2-105 Blood Vessel Thief' and could not be used.

In this unfavorable situation, Ince Zangwill, holding the 'Urn of Saint Selina' in his hand, ran into Klein Moretti head-on.

Klein Moretti had never thought that he would just block Ince Zangwill. He took a look at the 'Urn of Saint Selina' in the other's hand.

The lid of this sealed object was pushed open by a pitch-black silk thread, revealing an extremely dark place inside. In the darkness there were grains of sparkling sand, just like the starry sky at night that was put into a box.

Klein's mind buzzed. It seemed like he was late...

It turns out that Ince Zangwill's target is 'Saint Selina's urn'?

This is the most precious seal in Chanis Gate... If Ince Zangwill succeeds, what about old Neil and others who are guarding Chanis Gate?

Klein didn't dare to think any further. Various horrific images emerged in his mind. They were all his dead companions.

"you..."

Ince Zangwill seemed to want to say something, but would Klein, who was already in deep self-blame and regret, even listen to his nonsense?

"Light!"

Klein uttered a word in ancient Hermetic language. The thin gold sheet covered with mysterious patterns in his palm became scorching hot. It emitted a dazzling light, as if it had transformed into a small sun.

He injected all of his remaining spiritual energy into it without any reservation, and threw the "Yangyan Talisman" towards Ince Zangwill in front of him!

"Damn it!"

A dazzling light appeared before his eyes. Ince Zangwill took out the skull of the spiritually damaged descendant of the God of Death and placed it in front of himself without caring about the pain.

He held the skull of the descendant of the god of death in his left hand and the urn of Saint Selina in his right hand, and stretched out his hands to block in front of himself.

This is not the end. The feeling that the Sunfire Spell gave to Ince Zangwill was too terrifying. Although he no longer had any undead to block the knife, he could also open the gate to the underworld and temporarily summon new underworld creatures.

Ince Zangwill felt really shitty right now. He could swear that it was definitely Sealed Item 0-08 who was deliberately plotting against him behind his back while he had no extra energy.

He finally escaped from the Chanis Gate and ran into Klein Moretti head-on. Without saying a word, the other party threw a high-level talisman specifically designed to restrain him.

He already had a lame leg and had difficulty moving, and the current terrain was a straight passage with no room to dodge left or right. Retreating back to the Chanis Gate would be tantamount to seeking death.

To put it bluntly, Ince Zangwill had to take the "bomb" thrown by Klein without dodging or avoiding it.

However, Ince Zangwill was well aware of the fact that Sealed Artifact 0-08 backstabbed its holder and had been prepared for it, so he responded in a very short time.

The blazing white beam of light came straight towards them!

Ince Zangwill threw out the characteristic of the Descendant of Death, and the skull of the Descendant of Death was blown away by the beam, but it also somewhat weakened the power of the spell.

Ince Zangwill wanted to repeat his old trick and put the urn of Saint Selina, which was covered with black threads and exuded a strong dark aura, in front of him.

But unfortunately, this special astronomical phenomenon caused by the accident ended, and Saint Selina's urn fell silent again. The fine black silk thread disappeared, and the lid of the urn closed again by itself.

Chapter 80 One move is missing

Ince Zangwill is the former archbishop of the Church of Evernight. He has coveted the 'Urn of Saint Selina' for a long time, and his understanding of this sealed object is far beyond that of ordinary people.

Saint Selina's ashes, a Sequence 4 level sealed object, normally does not possess the properties of being alive.

Its previous random attacks on the holder were an abnormal state that was not often encountered. This was actually due to the influence of the battle between the two big guys, the Goddess of Night and the Original Moon. After all, the main battlefield of these two core players revolved around Tingen.

Now Ince Zangwill wanted to borrow the power of this seal to help himself weaken the power of the Yangyan Talisman, but unfortunately the fight between the two bosses was temporarily over.

Ince Zangwill looked at the urn with a frustrated look on his face. He closed the lid himself and his face twitched, but he reacted quickly and prepared to open the door to the underworld to summon an unlucky underworld creature to help him block the knife.

He stretched out his palms and pushed forward as if he was pushing open a door that didn't exist. In a flash, a bronze door covered with mysterious patterns and difficult to describe appeared in front of him. It was shaking and creaking, as if expecting someone to open it so that the horrible creatures behind it could come to the world.

Ince Zangwill stretched out his hand and pushed, but the door didn't budge at all, not even a crack appeared. He eagerly gathered all his strength, but he couldn't push open the door to the underworld in front of him.

Whoosh!

Ince Zangwill was hit by the blazing beam and was sent flying.

He has rich combat experience and a strong sense of self-preservation, but his luck is really bad.

Normally speaking, a Sequence 5 gatekeeper would not be so desperate as to completely open the gate to the underworld, because by doing so he would definitely be the first unlucky person, as you could not predict what kind of monster would run out of the gate you opened.

This also means that when a gatekeeper actively wants to push open the door to the underworld, he will hardly encounter any obstacles, and even the underworld creatures behind the door will take the initiative to help you.

But there are always exceptions. There are times when the door to the underworld cannot be opened, and there are times when the creatures of the underworld hold tight to prevent the door from being pushed open.

And Ince Zangwill happened to encounter this special moment.

The reason is also very simple...

In the deepest part of the underworld there is a city called Calderon, also known as the City of the Dead. At the bottom of this city there is a tributary of the Dark River.

At this time, the Goddess of Night was trying hard to help someone conceal the breath of the River of Everlasting Darkness, misleading the corresponding prying and divination, and preventing the phantom of the River of Everlasting Darkness from leaving too many traces in the real world and being noticed by people.

At this time, there is an ignorant guy who wants to open a gate leading directly to the underworld in Tingen City. What do you think the Goddess of Night would think?

You guys think the goddess isn’t annoying enough, chaotic enough, or busy enough tonight, right?

You are a traitor, you don't know what's going on, you have to jump out at this time to make trouble for the goddess? If you don't suffer, who will? Do you think you are called the "Queen of Misfortune and Terror" for nothing?

If those underworld creatures were not really afraid to come out now, those terrifying creatures behind the underworld gate might really want to drag Ince Zangwill into the underworld and beat him to death.

If you want to die, why do you want to implicate us? If we really let you push the door open tonight, we will be doomed, you know that? Brothers, hold the door tight, don't let that bastard outside come in and harm us!

Klein and Ince Zangwill were both unaware of the truth behind all this. Klein had never expected that Ince Zangwill, whom he had always thought was the mastermind behind the scenes, could be dealt with so easily.

Klein had clearly prepared for a life-and-death fight, but now the battle was resolved with just the use of a Yangyan spell. This made Xiao Ke feel somewhat disappointed and uneasy.

Even though the monster that blocked the road encountered on the way consumed two Yangyan Talismans, Ince Zangwill, who had always been the imaginary enemy, fell down after being hit by only one shot?

Klein originally planned to use the Sunfire Charm to weaken a wave of opponents, and then use Demon Hunting Bullets and Sleeping Charms to delay time as much as possible.

After all, he had fought too many battles in succession tonight, and even used three high-level talismans like the Yangyan Talisman. His spiritual power had been almost exhausted. Now his brain had begun to hurt, and he even had hallucinations in front of his eyes.

"puff!"

Ince Zangwill spat out a mouthful of blood. His entire body had been burnt to charcoal. If it weren't for the lack of spiritual power infused by Klein's last Sun Flame Spell, he would have almost certainly died.

But he still survived, even though the price was that all his hair and eyebrows were burned off. His whole body was roasted into a black salted egg head, and he even spewed out black smoke when he opened his mouth to breathe.

Klein knelt on one knee on the ground, holding his head in pain. The severe pain from his spiritual power being drained continued to torture his nerves, but this was not the first time Klein had experienced this state.

Before he became a Beyonder, he had already brought Mr. Hanged Man and Miss Justice into the Tarot Club, and single-handedly undertook the required spiritual expenditure. He had experience with spiritual overdraft.

Klein shook his head and barely overcame the double image before his eyes. He concentrated all his energy and pointed the muzzle of the revolver at Ince Zangwill in front of him.

Ince Zangwill did not carry a pistol, because ordinary firearms were not very useful for a Beyonder of his level. In the past, he had a hundred long-range methods that were more useful than firearms.

But it’s not possible now, as all his long-range attack methods have been eliminated one by one.

The most proficient ability in the early and middle stages of the Death Path is to drive the undead, but the undead in Ince Zangwill's body were all consumed in the previous battle. Even though he was a complete old bastard and had a few undead hidden, they must have been consumed in order to survive under the Yangyan Talisman.

The Path of Death can also open the Gate to the Underworld, which is also a very powerful means of dealing with enemies at short and medium distances, but the problem is that Ince Zangwill cannot open the Gate to the Underworld, and even his spirit is constantly warning him not to continue to commit suicide.

The fastest way to activate the Death Path is the language-like spiritual ability 'Voice of the Dead', which can bypass the protection of the flesh and blood body and elevate the communication with the spirit to driving or even enslaving it.

If Ince Zangwill activated the Voice of the Dead now, Klein, who was spiritually exhausted, would not be able to resist. Unfortunately, this ability was stolen by the Sealed Artifact 2-105, the Blood Vessel Thief, and he had to wait until the next day to restore it.

Ince Zangwill thought he was lucky when his extraordinary ability was stolen during the attack on Chanis Gate, as at least his core ability, the 'Gate of the Underworld', was not stolen.

But now, Ince Zangwill would rather have the core ability of a Sequence 5 Gatekeeper stolen. That way, he wouldn't be so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.

It is too frustrating for a veteran Sequence 5 to be forced to this extent by a newbie Sequence 8.

boom!

Gunshots ring out!

Chapter 81 Klein is offline

boom!

Gunfire rang out.

Klein felt a pain in his chest and his pupils constricted. He lowered his head and looked in disbelief at the bloody hole that appeared on his left chest. Blood slowly flowed out of it.

Why... a new enemy... am I going to die... I am so unwilling... I am just one step away...

Boom!

Klein's thoughts quickly became distracted, his eyes almost lost focus, and his body fell to the side.

His breathing gradually stopped, and he felt a burning sensation in his chest. A scalding sensation stimulated his flesh and blood, and soon the sensation in his chest became numb.

Everything went dark before his eyes, and Klein lost all consciousness.

Behind Klein, Cornelia White turned his gun stiffly. He mechanically stepped over Klein's body and lifted up Ince Zangwill from the ground.

Ince Zangwill looked at Klein, whose eyes were wide open and frozen in shock. His gaze swept across the wound on his back, and a grim smile of satisfaction appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The bullet that hit Klein's back was not an ordinary bullet, but a demon-hunting bullet used by professionals. It was engraved with runes of the sun domain and was specifically designed to target filthy and corrupted creatures.

Strictly speaking, it was a waste to use this kind of extraordinary bullet against an ordinary extraordinary person like Klein who was neither filthy nor corrupted. However, Ince Zangwill didn't care. After all, it was the bullets of the Church of Evernight that were wasted.

Moreover, the Demon Hunting Bullet and the Sunfire Talisman are both items from the Sun Realm, and Ince Zangwill's words clearly carry a lot of personal emotion.

"Take me and leave here."

Ince Zangwill gave an order to Cornel White, who carried the disabled Ince Zangwill on his back like a zombie and fled from the Blackthorn Security Company before the night watchmen who were out returned.

Ince Zangwill's fate did not end here, but this man was not without his merits.

Sequence 6 of the Path of Death is called the Necromancer, and it possesses two core extraordinary abilities, 'Resurrection' and 'Voice of the Dead'.

'Resurrection' can revive zombies and skeletons, but this kind of 'resurrection' does not have will and vitality.

Ince Zangwill held the Sealed Artifact 0-08. In addition to the fact that Lin Nuo had gotten the Starry Sky Boss to ban this authority dog from watching the game, he was well aware of all the real-time dynamic intelligence of Tingen City.

Because of the minor friction he had with Sealed Artifact 0-08 before, Ince Zangwill was very worried that this Sealed Artifact would trip him up when he was too busy to check the real-time status.

So in order to successfully steal Saint Selina's ashes and become a demigod to prolong his life, Ince Zangwill had to use his brain a little more.

After killing Cornelia White, he channeled his spirit and left a dead spirit waiting for him.

Ince Zangwill knew the style of the Church of Evernight very well. Both the Path of Death and the Path of Darkness were very good at dealing with the undead, so he played a little psychological trick.

When the night watchmen returning to the Blackthorn Security Company were ambushed by the Undead, and when the night watchmen discovered that their companions had been killed by the Undead, they would certainly be more vigilant against attacks from spirits, such as other natural spirits or the Undead.

Just like the choice Klein made at that time, the Nighthawks would certainly vigilantly check every corner of the room to ensure that there would not be a second undead hiding in the dark to attack.

They will also ignore their dead companion, the companion who would rather die than protect the information in his own way, the companion who is worthy of being called a hero but may bring danger to them.

Zombies can be identified through clairvoyance. The color of a zombie's aura is dark black, while the aura of a dead person is colorless.

But Ince Zangwill was also an expert at playing with the undead. He was originally fighting a blitzkrieg war, and the color of Cornel White's aura could be seen before his spirit dissipated.

In addition, Cornelia White's spirit was processed by Ince Zangwill, his body was invaded by the undead, and the story development was set in advance using the Sealed Artifact 0-08.

Ince Zangwill's little trick eventually deceived Klein Moretti, a novice in mysticism, by coincidence, although it was also because Klein was paying more attention to dream divination at the time.

His time and energy were limited. Since Cornelia White had been channeled once, his spirit would dissipate quickly. Klein could only hold back his sadness and conduct dream divination first.

He didn't have time to delay too long and investigate every detail meticulously, because he knew that his companions were fighting the enemy underground and urgently needed his help.

Although it was a bit far-fetched, under the arrangement of Sealed Artifact 0-08, Klein was kept in the dark in the end. As a result, he was backstabbed by his "companion" and met his destined death.

In fact, Ince Zangwill did not regard Cornel White as a trump card for a Jedi comeback, because a mere zombie was as easy to deal with as a slime in the wild for both the Beyonders of the Path of Death and the Path of Night.

Because of their professional matches, even Klein, who was a fortune teller, only needed a sleeping spell to restrain the zombies awakened by Ince Zangwill.

After all, in order to conceal the detection of the Nighthawks, Ince Zangwill would not strengthen the zombies. Instead, he had to suppress and weaken the zombies' power.

Ince Zangwill had initially just done it out of convenience, and he didn't expect him to play a big role. Otherwise, Klein wouldn't have seen in his dream divination that Ince Zangwill left without any regrets after killing Cornel White.

The most he could do was to hope that if he was unlucky enough to be blocked by the Nighthawks who returned early, the zombie could make some noise above, distracting the Nighthawks' attention and allowing Ince Zangwill to escape.

But when Ince Zangwill was almost killed by Klein, the value of this zombie was revealed. Cornelia White had a gun, but neither Ince nor Klein took it away from him.

The Sequence Eight Joker had an intuitive premonition, but unfortunately, Klein’s spirituality was exhausted and his mental state was extremely poor at the time, so he was unable to use this ability.

So Klein unfortunately lost in this head-on confrontation to an old man who had once challenged to become a demigod. This made Klein so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood above the gray fog after his resurrection.

He watched the defeat CG five times through dream divination above the gray fog before he accepted the fact of his death with a glum face.

Klein Moretti is dead, so Klein has lost his job that pays him £10 a week, and he can no longer go home to reunite with his family after get off work every day.

Because of a small negligence, Klein Moretti's life was ruined by Ince Zangwill. He could only change his identity and start over incognito, away from his past relatives and friends.
