Chapter 397

In the manor of the Middle Family, the former tranquility and peace were shrouded by an invisible tense atmosphere. There was an indescribable sense of heaviness in the air, and almost everyone's heart was involuntarily tense.

Every corner seemed to hide unknown malice. The servants in the Middle Family Manor held their breath and their footsteps echoed in the empty corridor.

The servants were more hurried and cautious than before, as if every step was on the edge of danger.

There was a trace of uneasiness in their eyes, and the voices of their conversations were also lowered a lot, for fear of disturbing the undercurrents under the tranquility.

The flowers in the garden that used to compete for beauty also lost their colors, and the occasional dewdrops on the leaves were more like silent sighs. The birds raised in the cages no longer sang as usual, and the occasional bird calls seemed particularly harsh, as if foreshadowing something was about to happen.

In the master room of the manor, the candlelight flickered, reflecting the frowning brows and pensive face of the Marquis Middle.

"Fisher, Fisher... Chris Fisher..."

He stood up and paced back and forth, tapping his fingers on the table from time to time, making a crisp and rhythmic sound.

Every tap was like a silent question, but he was anxious because he couldn't find the absolutely correct answer.

"Well, as expected, the person in Loen is still hesitant and didn't respond directly. If the extraordinary person who is a monarch comes from Loen, the Fisher family's affairs can be solved more easily."

He took a deep breath. Loen has hundreds of monarchs, and there are only twelve top monarchs.

And among the twelve top monarchs, there happened to be one who had an important connection with the Middle family a hundred years ago. To be more precise, that person was adopted by the grandfather of the Marquis of Middle when he was young.

Although more than a hundred years have passed, the relationship between the two sides has long faded a lot, but with that favor, I think he can still be invited to come over and make a move once.

Marquis Middle had made a decisive decision to send all the direct bloodline of the family out in advance, hiding in a place where few people knew about it.

Now that it has come to this point, even if Chris came back, he could not use them to threaten himself. As for how many ordinary peripheral members died, it was within the range that Marquis Middle could accept in his heart.

"Chris, you must kill him completely. In a sense, this 'God of Death' is a more troublesome existence than Aldridge."

At this moment, the voice of the servant suddenly came from outside, which shocked Marquis Middle.

"Mr. Marquis Middle, please come out and see! There is an important situation! Master Sloer, he, he came back from outside alone!"

When Marquis Middle heard the voice of the servant, his whole body was shocked. He turned his head in surprise and followed the servant outside.

As night fell, the manor was shrouded in a faint moonlight, but this tranquility did not relieve the tension, but added a bit of mystery and uneasiness.

The wind in the distance passed through the woods, bringing bursts of coolness, and the whole manor was more immersed in an indescribable tense atmosphere.

Arriving in the manor, Marquis Middel saw his direct bloodline, Slore, who was only in his teens, standing expressionlessly in the distance, approaching his position step by step.

The boy's eyes were blank, as if he had no idea what he was doing.

Slore Middel was the most talented of all his descendants. Although he was only in his teens, he had already reached the lower level of qualitative change and was likely to become a monarch-level transcendent in the future.

So he was very attentive to Slore's situation and immediately ran out of the house to check.

What exactly happened?

Why did he come back alone, and his condition didn't seem right!

Marquis Middel was very experienced in mysticism and soon realized that this was the influence of mental magic. His descendant, Slore, was controlled by magic!

"Chris?"

He realized at the first time that it was most likely Chris who did it!

Suddenly, not far behind him, the "servant" who called him out suddenly changed his appearance and turned into the expressionless Chris Fisher in an instant.

He swung the white shin blade in his hand and stabbed Marquis Middel in front of him.

"You!"

Marquis Middel reacted at the last moment, and his body turned into nothingness. He had been tormented for more than a month, and his originally calm emotions had almost collapsed. He couldn't help but be furious.

"Chris!"

He subconsciously wanted to use the power of "freeze", but Sloer was right next to him, less than two meters away. If he really used "freeze" to avoid accidental injury, it would be impossible!

Chris! You are so despicable!

The furious Marquis Middel still endured and did not use the power of "freeze".

Seeing the tibia blade penetrate again, and finding that Marquis Middel was staring at him fiercely, Chris, who looked indifferent, said nothing, but immediately used the "Eye of Conviction" to try to defeat the opponent's mental defense.

However, Marquis Middel had a treasure that could resist mental attacks.

"Eye of Conviction" did not take effect.

Although some mysterious treasure-level items are not as powerful as forbidden items, they have very good auxiliary effects, such as "flight", "invisibility", "resistance to mental attacks", and "fire prevention".

In addition, the mysterious treasures of the treasure level do not need to be paid for at all, so their actual value is no less than the four-digit forbidden treasures.

However, even if one attack is ineffective, Chris does not care. He just keeps attacking step by step, almost breaking through the opponent's death line again and again.

That kind of nothingness will never be turned on all the time, he knows this very well.

"Damn it!"

Marquis Middel roared in anger, constantly trying to increase the distance to avoid accidentally hurting his own bloodline after launching an attack. He knew very well in his heart that because of the tossing during this period of time, the people in the whole city were extremely tired, and now was the time when the city was most relaxed.

No one in the family could help him, and his cousin who was at the lower level of the monarch also left the city temporarily.

There is no doubt that everything is under the control of Chris Fisher!

So! He would choose this moment, the moment when it is easiest to succeed, to attack!

The two sides entangled for a while, and many people in the manor were driven out, but they were too weak to help.

"Master!"

"Lord Marquis!"

"It's Chris, the 'God of Death'. He's back again!"

Marquis Middel knew very well that his spiritual power was about to run out. At that time, he would not be able to maintain his nothingness, and he would soon face death.

Finally, he left the manor and kept a sufficient distance from his important direct bloodline. So Marquis Middel immediately activated the "freezing" power in his field and instantly froze Chris Fisher, who was fighting in close combat.

However, after the freezing was successful, the flames burned on Chris's body again. Marquis Middel knew in his heart that he could not freeze him for long.

It was only a matter of time before the terrifying "God of Death" broke through the ice!

So, he used the last two trump cards!

The first trump card was a forbidden item with a three-digit number of 501.

"Quenching River Ring"

It was a black and green ring that looked very simple, but actually concealed some kind of malicious power. The cost of using it was to consume fifteen years of life.

The mysterious effect it has is that it can make nearby targets who are hostile to it fall into a deep coma. Unless the comatose person is hurt, it is difficult to wake up again.

And the second trump card of Marquis Middel is the most powerful extraordinary power of "Ruins Song Spirit". He intends to cooperate with the coma effect of the former to take Chris's life.

"Ruins Song".

It is a powerful power that can directly take away the soul of others. Marquis Middel did not hesitate at all and began to sing in a low voice.

The sound sounded quietly. It was not like a mortal song, but a low hum from the abyss, with a magic that can penetrate the soul and touch the deepest part of the heart.

Chris felt that it was like an ancient spell, slowly plucked by an invisible hand, and each note fell heavily in the silent air, stirring up circles of invisible ripples.

The melody is complex and strange, sometimes weeping and complaining, as if it is the collective wailing of countless unfulfilled wishes, entangled with the listener's thoughts, making people involuntarily fall into a deep pain, and sometimes become passionate and high-pitched, but add a bit of ominousness and despair, like a low hum before a storm, foreshadowing the coming disaster!

This song contains an indescribable power, which can penetrate the barrier of the flesh and directly act on the human soul. With the ups and downs of the melody, Chris's deepest heart seems to be slowly torn open by an invisible hand, and those secrets, fears, desires, and even the most unwilling memories buried deep in his heart are awakened one by one, floating on the edge of consciousness and unable to escape.

The soul is about to be taken away...

However, at the same moment when he was about to sink completely, Chris suddenly activated the "Moment of Rift"!

What he has been waiting for is the moment when Marquis Middle completely turns from defense to offense!

In an instant, Marquis Middle felt a very strong threat of death, and suddenly began to regret giving up nothingness and opening the song of the soul.

Was my tactical choice wrong?

And why? The stun effect of the "Quenching River Ring" will not work on that man!

Chris, holding the white tibia and the black blade, was trembling all over because of the "Song of the Ruin Spirit", but because of the strong resistance brought by the "Mystic Lake" ability, his soul was not immediately taken away, and even the effect of the Quenching River Ring just now did not take effect.

Marquis Middel subconsciously wanted to activate the nothingness, but it was too late!

Everything around him has been stilled!
