As a tyrant, it's reasonable for me to snatch the heroine away

It's a good opportunity to follow the clues and find out the true identity of the mastermind!

During this period of time, the reason why he did not let Preciel bring the newly established intelligence network to infiltrate the Frogtooth High Collar was not only because he was worried that the intelligence network might not be mature, but also because of another important reason.

The first task that Morningstar gave to Precier was to investigate the manipulator behind the scenes based on the traces and clues left by the fake saint when the Kingdom of Grullit took over everything from the Kingdom of Dawn.

Compared with the other party, there is no doubt that the enemy is dark and I am bright.

But there is also an advantage to having the enemy in the dark and us in the light. At least when taking action against the mastermind behind the scenes, we don't have to consider so many factors.

He can do whatever he wants as long as he won't be counter-attacked and exploited.

Both times, people were sent to target me. It was obvious that the mastermind behind the scenes might not be able to show up or even leave the other party's current location for some reason.

In this situation, even if he slept with everyone who might be related to the other party, he could only hide in the dark.

As Morning Star let go of his hand, Chlom collapsed to the ground, and it took him a long time to recover from the fear.

According to that adult, the other party is just a human with unique magic powers.

As long as one is a human being, even one of Agnes' level, there is no way they can escape the influence of this cursed item.

Even if it is a clone, it should have the same magical power as its master.

Normal magic power has the same source. Once the clone disappears, even if most of the magic power is scattered, a small part of the magic power will definitely return to the original body.

In this case, when Chrom witnessed with his own eyes the injection of the liquid into the flesh, even the owner of the clone would definitely be turned into a void beast.

But.......

Colum couldn't understand.

This clone of Morning Star seems to have the same magical power but a different body.

Although the clone is controlled by the Morning Star consciousness, it is completely like a single individual being dominated.

A walking corpse suddenly appeared out of nowhere?

How is that possible? Even a god would have a hard time doing this, right?

Chrom stared at the Morning Star in front of him, with fear in his eyes as well as shock and astonishment.

"This test tube was given to you by your master, right?"

Chenxing stretched out one hand, and the sarcophagus that had fallen to the ground flew directly into his hand.

The material and structure of the entire test tube are obviously not at a level that can be imitated by this world's technological level.

In addition to what the Canine Fang Tribe said before, there are things in this world that were brought over from the original world by travelers.

Without a doubt, this test tube is one of them.

This point coincidentally matches Chenxing's previous guess.

According to Chenxing's original guess, the mastermind behind the incident, the culprit targeting himself, a "new generation" time traveler, was most likely the Adventurer's Association led by the former time traveler.

This test tube seems to confirm this.

After all, in the legendary Trial in the Temple, almost everyone gave the situation that they were already dead.

However, the founder of the Adventurer's Association appeared and disappeared without a trace and his whereabouts are unknown.

All in all, it is obvious who is more likely.

but.......

Chenxing thought about what he overheard in Beatrice's room that day, but now he was not sure about his guess.

In this world, there are more than just a few time travelers recorded in history.

What's more, the situation of Melody doesn't make sense.

The reason why Melodie wants to confirm her identity as an adventer is more likely to be that she wants to save Cuibis.

Moreover, what if all this was deliberately arranged by someone?

Someone deliberately left these clues, deliberately trying to make me doubt the Adventurer's Association and the Descender who established the Adventurer's Association?

It is possible, and very likely.

At least from the perspective of a time traveler, if it were Chenxing, facing a situation where he could not show up or take action, letting the enemy who is a hidden danger "bite" other people would undoubtedly be the best solution.

At the same time, it can also serve the purpose of...delaying time!

It only took a moment for Morning Star to think of this.

Chapter 48 My Little Succubus Lilith

"I......."

Chlom spoke subconsciously, his voice trembling slightly.

But the next second he bit his lips hard.

As the blood flowed down drop by drop, Chlom's eyes became a little clearer.

Use pain to temporarily escape from fear.

Although the effect is minimal, it is at least of some use.

"The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit, just kill me!"

Even though his body was still shaking uncontrollably, Chrom turned his head away and said something like "ready to die with an open mind" in a firm voice.

He didn't think so much about it. It was true that he was not as skilled as others, and Chlom admitted it.

but.......

For some reason, although Chrom hesitated for a moment, he still chose not to betray.

This was something Chen Xing had not expected.

After all, Chrome's behavior made him subconsciously feel that the other party was indeed as the forum speculated.

But would a guy who had been planning for such a long time and said one thing in front of others and another behind their backs be so determined not to sell out information to save his own life?

Even if the other party did hesitate just now, Chenxing could see that the hesitation was not because of being threatened or for other reasons.

If you think about it carefully, this world is no longer the game world after all because of the existence of time travelers. Some things really cannot be viewed entirely according to the original work.

But now, Chlom can't just die if he wants to.

"According to what your companion said, you will gain eternal life even after you die, right?"

Colum did not answer Morning Star's question, but it was also considered as tacit agreement.

Chenxing was also very curious. Those who were related to the mastermind mentioned eternal life. What did it mean?

Like the kind of eternal life in the original work where one swears allegiance to the God-King and becomes an immortal?

Or maybe...

"You think that if you fail you'll just die. Isn't that a bit too much of a disrespect for me?"

As Chen Xing spoke, the smile on his face became more and more weird.

Especially the look in his eyes that was filled with demonic power, it was enough to send chills down one's spine.

Death? Death is actually a kind of relief.

That's why we say that Chlom is at best just a clever kid who is still wet behind the ears.

Do you think that failure will only mean death, but since there is someone behind the scenes, you can still gain eternal life?

You know, the death of that impostor was just an accident.

For Chenxing, he "can't bear" to kill one intelligence source after another.

"So what if you look down on me? Humiliate me? Torture me? Since I have already taken action, I am naturally ready. You can kill me or chop me up as you please!"

At this point, Chlom no longer felt the panic he had just felt.

No matter how much the other party tortures and humiliates me, as long as that adult's plan succeeds, there will be a day when my identity will be called upon sooner or later!

"It's not about humiliation or torture. I'm so kind and compassionate, how could I do such a thing? But, there's a legend that I don't know if you've heard of. It's a legend about a demon!"

Chen Xing was not in a hurry to take action. To be exact, there were some things that he didn't need to do personally.

Hearing this, Chlom also frowned.

She didn't know what the other party was planning to do, nor did she understand why he suddenly started talking about legends.

The legend of the devil?

This Grullit Morningstar is indeed related to the devil! It is even possible that he is a devil in human skin!

"Just say whatever you want to say, hypocrite!!"

Chlom snorted.

In her opinion, the other party was just bluffing to scare her.

If there is really something that can be done, why not do it now?

Thinking of this, Chlom gradually calmed down.

"Hypocritical? But it's better than the legend that the devil uses the devil's unique power to take out the original will of life, and then completely takes over the body."

Morning Star said this, slowly reaching out his hand and stroking Chrom's delicate profile, which was considered outstanding among the cat-tailed people.

Although it is covered with some dust, its merits outweigh its flaws.

"Especially after taking over a body, some demons have a kind of evil taste. They store the will of the owner of the body in accessories such as jewelry, making them watch their own body bully their relatives, wantonly slaughter their own race, and even do some very cruel and inhumane things..."

Chenxing shook his head, and the look he gave Chlom seemed to express "pity" and "regret".

The constant warmth and touch on his face made Chlom tremble again, and his breathing became noticeably rapid.

Because she had heard of it, heard of this legend.

To be precise, this legend is very familiar to most people in this world.

It is rumored that there is a different kind of demon called succubus.

They rely on their ability to occupy the bodies of living beings to do whatever they want.

And the deeds that Chenxing talked about, the deeds that should only exist in legends, the succubus who did those deeds...

"I remember, the name of that demon seemed to be something..."

"Impossible!! That group of demons and the demons who did those things disappeared a long time ago!! Don't try to scare me!!"

Chlom tried to remain calm, but her pale face and increasingly trembling body had already betrayed her.

The reason is simple, there is demonic power in Morning Star.

At this time, people started talking about legends related to demons.

This may not be as simple as a threat.

If, even with just the slightest possibility, the other party really possesses that kind of means...

Chlom didn't dare to think about it, nor could he think about it.

Even the body is still the original body, and even the name is still the original name.

But the entire person's will and entire existence will be imprisoned forever, or even completely erased, and disappear from this world forever.

In this case, can eternal life solve the problem?

Moreover, his body was under the control of the devil...

Before he knew it, Morning Star came behind Chrom and leaned down, with his head close to Chrom's profile.

The faint sound like the devil's low moan kept coming into my ears.

"Whether it has disappeared or not, can't you just confirm it with your own eyes?"

As Chenxing spoke, he stretched out his hand wearing the video ring in front of Chrom.

As the video ring took effect, the images presented by magic appeared before Chrom's eyes.

It was a strange woman.

The condition of this strange woman was clearly that of a demon possessed.

At just one glance, Chlom's heart was in his throat.
