Chapter 238 The Third Level

In the lobby of Fisher Manor.

"You are finally back, Darren."

Vanessa smiled and nodded gently, and even the serious Theo smiled.

Finally returning to the Fisher family, Darren felt unprecedented relaxation in his heart at this moment, as if the string that had been tense for years had a chance to relax.

His important family members were all around him, celebrating the safe return of their loved ones, and Lillian and others were excited.

"Felix, this is your father."

Among Darren's three women, only Faye was in Nasir Town. She excitedly brought young Felix to come and let her child go to see the father she had not seen for many years.

Felix was neatly dressed in a small tuxedo. He looked up and saw Darren's terrifying face. He couldn't help but feel a little scared in his heart and subconsciously took a step back.

But after hesitating, he reluctantly stepped forward and said respectfully:

"Father, hello, you, you are finally back, we all miss you very much."

Darren lowered his head and looked thoughtfully at the boy who was trembling slightly, full of fear, but had to maintain etiquette, and then showed a smile scarier than the devil.

"Hahaha, Felix, you are more like Faye than me."

Felix didn't understand what she meant, but Faye smiled and said gently:

"There's nothing wrong with being like me, do you hate my personality? Speaking of which, Darren, can't you let Lillian treat your face? You scared the child."

Darren laughed, reached out and gently touched the boy's head, and laughed to himself:

"Oh, this face, I deliberately let Lillian treat me later, I also want to experience it for the last time... others are afraid of my eyes."

"What a pity, you guys are not afraid of me, haha!"

Then Darren looked at Lillian, and the sister nodded, and the next moment she released the power of the Soul Returning Tree, and quickly began to treat Darren's hideous and ugly appearance.

The flesh and blood regenerated, the skin healed, and the originally hideous burn scars were restored to good skin. Darren recovered as if he had been reborn.

"Ah?"

Felix looked at his father, who was like a monster, in astonishment. He gradually turned into a tall and handsome man. He felt very strange deep in his heart.

"Father!"

He couldn't help but shout excitedly.

Darren's bright eyes shone with cleverness. The skin that had been aching for a long time finally recovered and the pain disappeared.

It was a long-lost feeling of comfort, which made him moan several times.

"So cool! Hahahaha!"

Seeing his son's reaction, Darren couldn't help laughing, then he squatted down suddenly, hugged his son, and said loudly:

"Hahaha! What's the matter, kid, do you only look at the appearance? Your father has become handsome, so you dare to get close?"

Felix's face was embarrassed, his eyes were shy and anxious, and he kept saying: "No, no, it's not like that, father! Woo..."

Christine in the wheelchair shook her head and said: "It's a good thing that Darren is back."

Kano smiled and put his arms behind his head, squinting his eyes and jokingly said: "Felix has a serious personality, he is really suitable for being teased, bad, he will be teased often in the future, after all, there is more than one person in the family who likes to tease people."

Everyone couldn't help laughing, in fact, no one would really blame a young child.

"I'm sorry, please forgive me, I'm sorry..."

Felix bit his lips tightly, and suddenly couldn't help crying on the spot, but he didn't even dare to cry loudly when he cried, just a little tears.

"Okay, okay, I don't mean to blame you, Felix."

Darren smiled and comforted the child, knowing that this little guy was a little too serious because of Faye's character. In short, he was a so-called "good student".

Hehe, in fact, it's not a particularly bad character.

At least it's much better than when I was a child, hahahahahahaha!

Then, Darren asked Faye to take the crying Felix away, turned to look at Lillian, and asked: "Father and Uncle Chris, is there no definite news about them yet?"

Lillian nodded slightly and said very seriously:

"Yes, not only father and Uncle Chris are missing, Viscount Best, Acting Bishop Zain, and the first heir of the Roman family, 'Dragon Tamer' Aldridge are all missing... Oh, and Chief Renzo."

She almost forgot about Renzo. Compared with those other people, the chief of police in Finn City is not a big shot.

Lillian continued:

"More than half a year is not the longest breakthrough time, so everyone has not given up hope, thinking that maybe the breakthrough monarch has not yet ended... The more important reason is that neither the Lion Family nor the Roman Family has the spare energy to search for them on a large scale before the end of the war."

"Now that the war is over, I'm afraid the Lion Family and the Roman Family will try to find people in various places on the East Coast. After all, the missing are important members of each family."

Darren nodded slightly thoughtfully, smiled, and said optimistically:

"I don't think we need to worry too much. Father and Uncle Chris are both smart enough and have rich experience in dealing with things. They won't be in trouble easily."

"Maybe, father and Uncle Chris are just trapped somewhere, just like me back then."

Lillian thought for a while, shook her head and said, "I prayed to the great Lord of the Lost, and the oracle I got was that they were trapped somewhere, so there's no need to worry too much."

"I believe in the judgment of the great Lord of the Lost."

Because of Byrne and Chris's double prayers, Carl naturally knew that they were trapped in the Valley of Bones after receiving the prayers, but he didn't know where that place was, and Byrne and Chris didn't explain it clearly in their prayers, so he couldn't guide the Fisher family to rescue them.

But Carl could vaguely feel that the place didn't pose much threat to Byrne and Chris, but might instead form opportunities.

"I have mastered the sequence power of the second step of the Shadow Road, 'Ghost'."

Darren stared at his sister again, smiling and ready to step onto a new step.

"Okay!"

Lillian nodded seriously, feeling very happy. The Fisher family was very short of fighting power, and it was important to have one more person stepping onto the third step!

Darren continued:

"By the way, my bloodline power may have to break through the qualitative change level, and I need the next stage of fire cultivation inheritance and auxiliary breakthrough potions."

At this time, Vanessa suddenly said:

"Well, my spellcasting ability may also break through the middle level of qualitative change, but it is not very stable yet. It may take a few years to really reach it."

Everyone couldn't help but look at Vanessa, realizing that when Byrne and Chris were not there, she was actually vaguely about to become the strongest person in the Fisher family.

Lillian sighed and continued, "I have only recently developed a second devout person on the island. He is an island native who was tamed by our great faith. It will take time for me to break through to the third level."

Darren nodded gently and said, "It doesn't matter. We can just keep working hard. By the way, I'm going to see Lao Gou later."

He paused and asked calmly, "Speaking of which, no half-elf came to Nasir Town?"

Lillian was stunned for a while and shook her head.

"Is that so..."

Finally, Darren stepped onto the third level of the Shadow Road!

The third level of the Shadow Road.

"Blood Dancer"!

In the spirit world, its image is an old woman bathing in blood and dancing constantly, with a crazy smile on her face.

Darren took a deep breath and clenched his fists. He could feel the obvious improvement in his strength. His physical fitness increased by 35, and his spiritual power increased by 35.

He gained a supernatural characteristic "Blood Spirit Body", and every drop of his blood can be automatically controlled by spiritual power, and he can quickly heal the injuries of his flesh and blood at any time, but he will also continue to consume spiritual power.

In simple terms, it is similar to the effect of "spiritual power transforming into life force" in the transformation period. The disadvantage is that the consumption will be greater, and it cannot be used continuously for too many times, and it is also impossible to repair bones.

In addition to the supernatural characteristic "Blood Spirit Body", Darren also gained the supernatural power "Blood Arrow" and the ritual spell "Blood Dance".

Blood Arrow means that Darren can manipulate the blood that touches his skin and make them shoot out like arrows. It is a very high-speed long-range attack.

He tried it, using the blade to break a small wound on his finger, and then raised his hand to throw out drops of blood. They instantly turned into arrows and shot at the surrounding walls, leaving several deep holes directly.

"What are you doing here! Wait until you get out and try again!"

Lillian's face in the basement turned black, and Darren immediately admitted his mistake, saying that he couldn't control it for a while.

"Hmm..."

He thought silently. The blood arrows were fired very quickly and with high accuracy. Their range could easily exceed 100 meters.

But their damage ability was only stronger than that of flintlock rifles. They might not be good at dealing with enemies with strong defensive capabilities.

The last kind of extraordinary power was the ritual spell "Blood Dance".

He needed to collect the fresh blood of at least ten people, draw a rather complicated magic circle on the ground with blood, and then dance a complicated and cumbersome weird dance on the magic circle for several hours. Then he could summon a dead person he had killed and drive him at will.

Any dead person killed by the "Blood Dancer" could be awakened by the "Blood Dancer" regardless of their strength before death, and could maintain most of their strength before death. However, the duration of existence depended on the spiritual power of the "Blood Dancer" himself.

Suppose Darren went through a lot of trouble to summon a powerful dead person at the monarch level, he could not guarantee that the monarch dead person could fully use even one full-strength attack. Basically, Darren would be drained of all spiritual power in an instant.

Darren smiled with satisfaction, stroking his chin and talking to himself:

"Although it is complicated and laborious and does not last long, the summoned monarch is enough to kill any extraordinary person below the upper level of qualitative change in a second even if he just strikes casually."

"Okay, here comes the question, where can I find a monarch to kill?"

Of course, that kind of thing is probably impossible!
