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
Alex hadn't had a chance to move when Lucifer walked up and opened the door. The auditor, upon seeing the door open, looked up and saw Lucifer's face.He was almost startled and jumped up in surprise.What was going on? This was clearly Alex's opponent in the battle. Why did he suddenly appear here? Could it be that he had killed their new president to take Alex's position?The auditor's thoughts raced as he tried to remain calm and asked, "Why are you here?"Lucifer's deep gaze seemed to penetrate his thoughts, making the auditor feel a bit overwhelmed by Lucifer's presence.At that moment, Alex's voice suddenly came from behind Lucifer, "Why are you two blocking the door?"The auditor's eyes lit up as Lucifer stepped aside and entered the room. The auditor immediately looked at Alex, who was smiling at him. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief; indeed, Alex was just a normal teenager.Lucifer, on the other hand, was clearly a formidable figure.The auditor quickly reg
Lucifer always knew that Alex had a secret.He behaved as if he knew a lot and then acted as if he knew nothing at all. This was truly strange, but it couldn't be denied that his words had intrigued Lucifer.Lucifer was aware of his strong abilities, but he still needed further growth to match them. Using a sword alone was not his preference; he clearly needed to become even stronger.Knowing was one thing, but doing it was another. Up to this point, he still couldn't fully control his flames to attack freely. His flames would spread everywhere, burning everything, and sometimes, they might even burn him.He would only use his flames directly when forced to or in cases of emergency. Otherwise, he always used a sword. He despised things he couldn't see through or control.Lucifer coldly raised his eyes to look at Alex, who had become an element beyond his control. Even he couldn't fully see through Alex. For such cases, Lucifer usually kept his distance.However, now Alex prese
Alex suddenly turned to one side and began squatting down to do something, making Lucifer feel a bit uneasy. Lucifer walked up a bit almost immediately, and Alex raised his hand, loudly saying, "Stay in place!"His expression seemed as if he had eyes growing at the back of his head. Lucifer wasn't particularly interested in other people's secrets, so he raised an eyebrow slightly but didn't continue forward.At this moment, Alex was frowning, looking at his energy chart. Drawing this machine would consume more than half of his strength.It was true... intricate things always required a lot of effort.Alex frowned a bit but finally put down the last stroke. A metal ring immediately appeared in his hand. Alex exhaled and stood up, turning around. He handed the metal ring to Lucifer, saying, "Put it on."Lucifer didn't immediately take it; he asked, "What is this?"Judging by Alex's expression, it seemed like he took it out from a space. Alex's space was still a mystery at this po
