At this moment, Alex and Aegis had blended into the crowd of shadows. They separated and moved back and forth in areas with the highest concentration of shadows. When Lucifer and Mason entered the steam bath, all they could see was a crowd of shadows moving about. The bright badges on them were blinding.Due to their dense arrangement, they couldn't temporarily distinguish any shadow without a badge. Lucifer spoke in a low voice, "Bring the others here."Although the map was somewhat blurry, when approaching, Lucifer could completely determine that Alex's location was in this steam bath. Mason immediately obeyed the order and left.Lucifer squinted at this chaotic crowd of shadows, also looking at his own map. He headed towards the red dot that seemed closest to him. This red dot moved in a regular pattern, which was why they couldn't see anything unusual. This map was indeed a significant help.Lucifer quickly merged into the crowd of shadows, smoothly moving closer and close
Alex and Aegis are hiding in a narrow alley in the city. Alex checks the paint on his clothes and then looks at Aegis, confirming that neither of them has revealed anything.If this were to happen and the guards appeared, they surely couldn't return to the hotel.If they dared to go back, they would likely become suspects and be apprehended. However, they still need the creature's secretion; otherwise, they won't be able to blend into the streets filled with these creatures tomorrow night.Perhaps the moment they step out, they will be surrounded and attacked by a city of monsters. Alex speaks in a low voice, "We need to go back to the hotel to get the creature's secretion."Aegis, understanding the situation quickly, nods but expresses some concern, "But the guards..."Alex shakes his head, "Act like a normal shadow, be cautious of Lucifer's team members."Those shadows without rank notes.Aegis solemnly nods, and the two of them slowly step out of the narrow alley and onto the st
Alex furrows his brow as he looks at Mason; this young man isn't bad, and his speed is quite impressive. However, in Alex's previous life, he never heard of a young man walking alongside Lucifer or creating some kind of reputation. Perhaps he kept a low profile, avoiding standing out, or maybe he died in some dungeon.However, that's not a concern for Alex at the moment. He looks down to the ground, and Lucifer and another person are getting very close. If they enter the range of his sword, they can be cut down, and that would be disastrous.Alex fires another shot towards Mason, who is flying towards Lucifer. This time, the gunshot directly hits Mason's wing. Mason jumps up immediately, releasing sharp feathers toward Alex. Aegis's shield continues to play its role.At this moment, an arrow suddenly shoots straight towards Alex.Alex opens his eyes wide, his body not responding due to exhaustion.The arrow even pierces through Aegis's shield and continues forward, finally stop
Lucifer blocked Alex's bullet and immediately continued to swing his sword forward in an attack. Alex swiftly evaded, leading their battlefield to a different location, far away from Mason and Aegis's battleground.Though Alex held a dangerous-looking gun, in reality, it only had a single bullet left. If he were to reload, he wouldn't have the strength and speed to contend with Lucifer even for a second!As they distanced themselves from Aegis, Alex suddenly halted and then launched an attack towards Lucifer. Lucifer reacted with incredible agility, immediately stopping and countering Alex's sword.The black flames on his sword suddenly surged intensely, making Alex feel like his face and sword were about to be seared. At that moment, Alex sensed a pungent smell, accompanied by heat spreading over his head.Alex instinctively widened his eyes and quickly stepped back. Despite the risk of burning his hand, he used it to pat out the flames on his head. Seizing the opportunity, Luc
In the meeting room of the authorities, everyone appeared in virtual reality images. Vanessa smiled and said lightly, "It seems that our new colleague has arrived. Surprisingly, he's a 17-year-old boy."Pausing for a moment, she licked her lips and smiled with a hint of playfulness, "But not bad-looking a rather cute appearance."Michael couldn't help but glance at her, his voice emotionless, "You should keep those thoughts to yourself."Vanessa chuckled, "I was just thinking, I can't travel from the Shadow Realm to Mystica just to flirt with him. Besides, the mist in the dangerous borders is thick. Or are you jealous, Michael?"Michael didn't say a word, but the emotionless expression on his face made it clear that there was no jealousy here.People always say he's an emotionless person, and that's not entirely wrong.At this moment, Moon suddenly spoke up, "How do you all assess Alex's strength?"Michael casually spoke, "It's challenging to determine the type of ability, but it's l
"If you remain silent, I won't proceed to the Mystica Tower anymore," Alex threatened.Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the book glowed slightly as if expressing dissatisfaction. Alex paid no attention to it. Finally, as if with no other choice, the book suddenly emitted a intense light, and when Alex opened his eyes again, he found himself inside the space of the book.The book showed signs of discontent, but Alex ignored it and asked again, "So, what is your purpose? Why do you want me to obtain the Mystica Tower key, and what is inside the Mystica Tower?"A line of text suddenly appeared above the book: "[You are the one I chose, that's why you were resurrected.]"Alex raised an eyebrow slightly at this, but he didn't feel much beyond surprise. He knew there was no free lunch in this world, and this book appearing and blessing him was not a natural occurrence.Remaining calm, he nodded and asked, "So, what do you want me to do?"Another line of text appeared: "[Help Lucife
Alex's recent collision had caused his Maybach to tilt to one side, but it still moved quite normally. Rolling down the street, it quickly arrived at Alex's mansion. As Alex and Lucifer stepped out of the car, they spotted someone standing in front of the gate. The person also heard the sound and hurriedly looked over. To their surprise, it was Aegis.Upon seeing Alex, Aegis immediately lit up with joy, wanting to rush towards him. However, upon noticing Lucifer beside Alex, he couldn't help but feel a bit hesitant."Alex, why are you suddenly with him?" Aegis paused, asking. Wasn't Alex afraid of Lucifer chopping his head off?Alex chuckled a bit, saying, "We're friends now. No need to be afraid."As Alex spoke, Lucifer, standing nearby, showed no mercy and stated, "Not friends."Alex: "..."Aegis: "..."Alex quickly moved past that topic, looking at Aegis and asking, "Why did you suddenly come here?"Aegis, with a somewhat tearful expression, replied, "You gave me your address
The next morning, Alex appeared at the entrance of the Mystica government center right on time, only to find Lucifer already waiting there. Lucifer even had a faint mist surrounding him, as if he had been waiting for a long time.Alex waved his hand, "You're here early."Lucifer didn't say anything, just spoke in a deep voice, "If you're here, let's go in."Without further words, Alex led the way inside. Everyone here was familiar with Alex's face. Upon seeing him, they offered a slight bow before quickly assuming their respective positions.No one seemed to question Alex bringing Lucifer here. As soon as they arrived at the president's office, Alex noticed a virtual screen lighting up, displaying a note indicating an incoming important call.Alex couldn't help but mutter, "Should I answer it?"Lucifer said nothing, just looked at him as if silently asking Alex to decide.Taking a deep breath, Alex reluctantly pressed the answer button. In an instant, everything around him began
