Please be my partner.

Sims also shook his head, indicating that he had no idea.

Just when everyone was thinking about their own things, Kerrydi walked in. He was a little weak at this time, and his face was full of fatigue.

Chaudhry greeted him and casually asked, "You came out of the Secret Garden so soon? It looks like you were in danger? Where are the others? Are they still in the Secret Garden?"

Kairuidi smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "It's more than just danger. This time, they almost didn't make it back. As for the others, I'm afraid they're in grave danger."

"what?!"

Chaudhry and the others were a little surprised when they heard this.

Kairuidi didn't keep the secret and simply recounted what happened next. Then he sighed and said, "If it weren't for Lord Erikon's help, I probably wouldn't have escaped the disaster."

Everyone was a little surprised. They didn't expect that such a serious disaster would happen in the secret garden after they left.

Chaudhry hesitated and said, "So, Lord Canelo's summons this time is also related to the disaster in the secret garden?"

Kerry was silent. He did not mention what Ericon had asked him: "This disaster might have been caused by one of them."

At this moment, endless light gathered and a perfect blond young man appeared. He did not give off too much oppression, but he was always surrounded by a sacred and noble aura.

The others hurriedly saluted respectfully: "Master Canero!"

Canelo glanced casually, then suddenly frowned and asked, "Didn't they say there were fifteen people who accepted the mission? You, plus the few people lost in the secret garden, how come there are only fourteen? Who else hasn't come yet?!"

By the end of his speech, Canero's tone was extremely unhappy.

Chaudhry's heart skipped a beat, and he stepped forward, saying, "Your Excellency, there's another man named Jason, a temporary helper I brought in. He left a while ago."

Canelo frowned and asked, "Who is this Jason? How did you know him?"

Chaudhry didn't dare to hide anything and quickly told him what he knew and how he met Jason.

Of course, the part about the transaction was only mentioned briefly.

Canelo naturally understood the trick, but he had no intention of delving into it. He just asked in a deep voice, "Is there any way to find him?"

Chaudhry hesitated, but sensing Canelo's dangerous gaze, he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes! From what I know, Imran and Goodman are following Jason."

Canero looked at Chaudhry with a cold gaze. He snorted coldly, and the invisible rules hit Chaudhry like a heavy hammer. He staggered back, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Chaudhry did not dare to resist and could only accept the punishment respectfully.

If Chaudhry's transaction with Jason was just on the edge of the adventure team's rules, then Imran and Goodman secretly followed Jason after the transaction was completed. Their purpose is self-evident. This behavior is a slap in the face of the adventure team.

Once Imran and Goodman's actions are exposed, it will affect the overall reputation of the adventure team.

You know, building a good reputation takes time, but destroying it is very easy!

The reason why Canero punished Chaudhry was naturally because he regarded him as an accomplice of Imran and Goodman. Even if he was not a collusion in advance, he was at least an insider.

He knew that Imran and Goodman wanted to harm Jason but did nothing, so he should be punished.

Chaudhry had to swallow his anger and endure it. He didn't dare to mention the fact that there was a demigod behind Jason. Otherwise, wouldn't it be like he deliberately wanted to harm Imran and Goodman?

Although this is the fact!

Canelo said coldly: "Let's talk about this later. Notify Imran and Goodman and ask them to bring that guy named Jason back!"

Chaudhry did not dare to neglect the request. He responded respectfully and quickly contacted the two of them.

But only a moment later, Chaudhry said with a grim expression: "Lord Canero, Imran and Goodman's communications have been shut down, and we can't contact them."

"Waste!" Canelo cursed, then said, "The spatial storm in the Secret Garden has reached a critical mass. It could trigger a chain reaction of disasters that could affect the entire Tuonan Realm. Notice everyone and prepare for the disaster."

After giving the order, Canero disappeared without waiting for anyone to respond.

After Canelo left, the oppressive atmosphere relaxed, and Chaudhry said, "Do as the adults say."

Next, the six major adventure groups took action and also informed the other four major adventure groups and the Adventurer's Guild of what happened in the Secret Garden. Afterwards, some well-informed individual adventurers also received the news.

Then, all kinds of rumors started flying around, and finally it evolved to the point that the power of the mythical strongmen in the Tunan Realm was revived and this adventurer's holy land was about to be destroyed.

However, these have nothing to do with Meren who has already left, and Imran and Goodman who followed him and were ready to make a no-cost deal.

Pufeng Realm is several small worlds away from Tuonan Realm.

Just when Imran and Goodman were about to take action...

Melen stopped and said, "You two have followed me for so long. We are far away from the Tuonan Realm. There is no need to hide any more."

Imran and Goodman looked at each other and walked out of the shadows.

Imran smiled and said, "Don't get me wrong, Mr. Jason. We didn't mean to follow you. We were on our way out to do something and happened to see you on the way."

Goodman also said, "That's right. After all, you are our client, and you just completed a large transaction. We saw that it was convenient for us to escort you for a while. As for following you secretly, it was just because we didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble."

Mellen was practically amused by the two and said, "There's no need to give such a lame excuse. Do you think I'll believe it?"

Imran showed an innocent look and said, "Believe it or not, this is the truth. Since Mr. Jason doesn't need our escort, let's go."

After saying this, Imran and Goodman retreated in unison, seemingly intending to leave.

Mellen shook his head slightly and said calmly, "Want to leave now? It's too late! Stay with me!"

Mechanical Garuru leaped out of thin air, the sanctuary expanded, and the sky and earth were rendered in a cold and hard silver, sealing off the space.

At the same time, wisps of blood mist spread out, accompanied by a colorful halo, which not only blocked the vision but also confused the perception.

Mellen is not a pedantic person. He knows that Imran and Goodman have bad intentions, so he naturally cannot let them leave just because they don't take action.

At the same time as Melen launched the attack, Imran and Goodman also immediately attacked. Both of them were powerful saints at the peak of their powers, so their moves were naturally extraordinary.

Imran simply pulled with both hands, and the space seemed to be torn apart, with large pieces of shattered marks appearing. Darkness overflowed from it, turning into pieces of pitch-black curtains.

Goodman's body was burning with blazing flames, and he transformed into a terrifying elemental giant. Wherever he passed, everything in the world was ignited.

Xiao Honglian lay on Melen's shoulder, while Mechanical Garuru and Xiao Liuli went directly to Imran and Goodman.

The former transformed into various powerful weapons, entangled with the black curtain; the latter shook its tail that flashed with colorful light, and dreamy and blurred rays of light wrapped around the fire elemental giant like a soft thread around one's fingers.

In terms of real strength, Mecha Garuru and Xiao Liuli are far inferior to Imran and Goodman, but with Mellen's support, they can still fight on equal terms.

Mellen was not in a hurry to let other dogs join. Opponents like Imran and Goodman were excellent whetstones for the dogs, which could be used to improve their combat experience.

After all, not all dogs are like Spike, who can draw combat experience and combat insights from the long river of fighting spirit and increase his own combat wisdom out of thin air.

Even if Little Red Lotus can absorb everything from the blood life through [Blood Prison], it still needs to familiarize itself with the relevant combat experience. However, Little Red Lotus is not very interested in combat, and Melen will not force it.

As the battle continued, Imran and Goodman became more and more frightened. They had naturally investigated Jason before coming, and they were also very clear about the latter's record in the Eternal Arena.

According to their in-depth investigation, the strongest among those defeated by Jason was only in the late Saint stage, which was also possible for them.

Imran and Goodman have been deputy leaders of the top ten adventure groups for quite a long time and have many trump cards in their hands. They believe that they can defeat Jason together, even if the latter's strength is still hidden. In addition, the money is attractive, so they finally decided to take action.

But I didn't expect that unexpected situations would occur one after another.

First, he saw through their shadow curtain, which forced them to be exposed even though they were preparing for a sneak attack. Then, after knowing their identities and even after they showed the intention to retreat, he still chose to attack them.

This clearly shows that the other party is not only incredibly powerful, but also has absolute confidence in himself.

In the end, Jason did prove that he had the confidence.

Although both pets were only in the middle stage of Saint, they had reached the late stage of Saint after the burst of secret magic. Moreover, their methods were extremely strange and powerful, and they could not be at a disadvantage even when facing the two peak Saints.

Although Imran and Goodman felt that they could easily win after the two pets' secret magic burst ended, they should not forget that the mysterious Jason had not yet made a move.

At this moment, Imran and Goodman had come back to their senses from the temptation of huge wealth, and regretted having rashly set their sights on Jason.

Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world, and everyone must be responsible for their own choices.

After a long and fierce battle, Melen suddenly looked somewhere with a sense of purpose. After a moment of hesitation, he nodded Xiao Honglian's head and said, "Go, end the battle quickly."

After receiving Mellen's order, Xiao Honglian stopped watching the show and jumped directly into the air. Her small body turned into an endless sea of blood and rushed out. In this sea of blood, there was a vague figure that looked extremely hideous and terrifying.

With the addition of [Blood Prison] and the accumulation of experience over this period of time, Xiao Honglian's strength has steadily reached the late stage of Saint, and is still moving firmly towards the peak of Sainthood.

It can be said that even without the blessing of Melen's [Soul Synchrony], with Xiao Honglian's strength and talent, plus the huge size bestowed by [Blood Prison], it is enough to fight against the peak saint, and even defeat him.

And now, with the blessing of [Soul Synchrony], Xiao Honglian's strength has been further improved, and she can easily suppress Imran and Goodman.

Feeling the sudden surge of pressure, and even having a premonition of death, Imran was horrified and shouted, "Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding! Mr. Jason, we are really just passing by. If we have offended you before, we are willing to apologize!"

Goodman also said in a deep voice: "Jason, we have already said before that we left the Tuonan Realm this time to carry out a mission. If something really happens to us, the captain will definitely track us down to the end. You must consider the consequences carefully!"

Faced with one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop, Mellen remained unmoved.

This made the two men's expressions increasingly ugly. Up to now, they had used all kinds of trump cards in the battle and tried to escape more than once.

However, they were all blocked by the joint sanctuary of the three pets.

Imran shouted, "Mr. Jason, are you really going to kill us?! Think carefully, if you kill us, you will gain nothing and will be hunted by the demigods. But if you let us go, we are willing to return all the divine gold we earned from this transaction, and also give you some compensation!"

Goodman's tone softened, but he still threatened, "Jason, we also have a way to die together. You don't want to end up with nothing and even lose your own pet, do you?!"

At this moment, Mellen's expression finally changed slightly, which was immediately caught by Imran and Goodman. Just when they thought things had turned around, they heard the former whisper...

"Soul synchronization!"

The next moment, the three dogs turned into three streams of light and flew into Mellen's body. Before Imran and Goodman could react, the three holy domains that were originally cooperating with each other instantly merged and became one, turning into a more powerful and domineering holy domain, completely imprisoning the two of them.

With a light touch of his finger in the air, the blood in Imran and Goodman's bodies suddenly exploded, and their whole bodies exploded.

After easily dealing with two peak saints, Mellen was not overjoyed. Instead, he sighed softly and said, "What is coming will eventually come."

As Melen finished speaking, two sacred and majestic figures came stepping on the long river of rules.

Among them, the blond young man stretched out his hand and directly tore apart Melen's fusion sanctuary, fished out the soul and flesh that had not been completely wiped out, and then lightly tapped his fingertips, and two rules of power surged into it, helping Imran and Goodman recover.

After Imran and Goodman's bodies were reshaped, although their aura dropped from saint to legend, at least they saved their lives and their strength can be slowly restored later.

They did not dare to neglect and saluted respectfully to the two people who suddenly appeared: "Master Ericon! Master Canero!"

Chapter 475: Face the Demigod, and then... escape!

Melen looked at the two demigods with a calm expression.

He saw a metal Rubik's Cube in one of their hands. It was the one that Chaudhry had used to capture the aura of the sacred tree seedling as proof of mission completion during the previous secret garden exploration mission.

At this time, the metal Rubik's Cube unfolded slightly, and an illusory, fish-like and snake-like life was constantly circling on the metal Rubik's Cube, absorbing a wisp of breath from the metal Rubik's Cube from time to time.

Canelo ignored the deputy leader he had casually saved, and instead looked Mellen up and down, saying, "Jason? It seems you're not as simple as you appear."

Mellen shrugged and said, "Actually, I'm quite simple, but I just don't like to show off."

"Huh?" Canelo chuckled.

Ericon said calmly, "Let's stop chatting here. Jason, can you explain why the Jinling fish is pointing at you? Did you steal my treasure?"

Mellen chuckled and spread his hands, saying, "I admit that you may have put a lot of effort into that sacred tree before, but it is ownerless after all. At most, I intercepted it. Although that doesn't sound very nice, to say that I stole your treasure is a bit too ugly."

Erikon said, "So you admit that you took the things? In that case, let me see what secrets you have, from your soul."

After confirming that the treasure was taken away by Melen, Ericon had no intention of continuing the conversation. He was about to capture Melen and then directly view the information he wanted to know from the latter's soul.

As Ericon finished speaking, the space suddenly became wrinkled and distorted, like an open book, or like several mirrors facing each other, reflecting layered images. The space was evenly cut into layers of planes, each layer was real, yet also false.

Melen was trapped in a certain spatial plane, like a small insect solidified in amber. Not only could he not move at all, but even his thinking consciousness was rapidly becoming sluggish and was about to stop completely.

This is a bit like a deeper application of the high-dimensional knowledge "four-dimensional space" that Mellen once obtained, and it contains not only high-dimensional power, but also some elements of the real world.

Ericon casually stretched out his hand, and after crossing layers of space, his palm had become huge and illusory, grabbing Mellen with a thick shadow, and was about to completely block and capture his soul and body.

At this moment, Mellen's eyes shifted and trembled, his lips trembled slightly, and he uttered a word silently...

"Boom!~"

Intense rays of light suddenly rose from Mellen's body. Each ray was a powerful force of rules. They entangled and intertwined with each other, completely enveloping Mellen. The dissipated power alone was enough to tear apart the spatial plane that imprisoned Mellen.

The rippling power naturally distorted and extended the space and dimensions, causing Ericon's hands to grab nothing.

The rules condensed into a tangible light that draped over Mellen, and space flowed around him like liquid.

Every move naturally stirred up ripples in the sea of rules, which were reflected in the real space, forming halo ripples that constantly echoed on Mellen's body surface, and colorful tassels dragged out between movements.

"what?!"

Ericon let out a light exclamation, withdrew his hand in surprise, and looked at Mellen's changes at this time, feeling very interesting.

Canelo also looked at Mellen again and said with a sigh, "It's really unexpected. This posture, this intensity of aura, is it some kind of secret method? Or is it the blessing of some special treasure?"

Ericon replied casually, "It's probably a combination of both. I sense the aura of a rule-based secret treasure in him, as well as a deeply hidden external mythological quality."

Canelo's eyes lit up and he smiled, "Could it be that this kid is a child of destiny or something, and has found some kind of magical treasure?"

Ericon thought about it seriously and said, "It's not impossible. If that's the case, then this kid might be in some trouble."
