Chapter 198

~6 min read 1,156 words

"How is this possible! The barrier I set up at the Adlard Monastery has been broken?!"

Adlard Monastery.

"Too slow."

Looking at the figure walking over from the front, Iblisbel asked with some impatience.

"Just going to get something, why so slow."

"This can't be blamed on me."

Mercury Amatsuka shrugged: "The matter was going quite smoothly, but a Fourth Progenitor killed his way out halfway."

"To be honest, you should praise me for being clever."

"If it weren't for the fact that what I left there was only a clone, maybe you wouldn't be able to see me now."

"Fourth Progenitor?"

Iblisbel's face changed, and he became nervous instantly.

"Isn't he on the Japanese mainland? When did he return to Itogami Island."

"Even if you ask me such things, it's impossible for me to know."

Mercury Amatsuka replied: "Anyway, before my clone died, the last image transmitted back indeed saw the Fourth Progenitor."

"Saw it before dying? Are you sure you didn't see it wrong."

Iblisbel confirmed repeatedly: "If he is really on Itogami Island now, then our plan might have to stop for a while."

"Stop? Why stop."

Taking a clear red gemstone out of his arms, Mercury Amatsuka handed it to Iblisbel.

"The Alchemy Core has been obtained, and the sacrifice is also in place."

"Although it's a pity that Nagisa Akatsuki is missing, it won't have any impact on the final result."

"We don't need to stop at all now. Just follow the original plan and continue to act to resurrect the Sage!"

Iblisbel shook his head: "Things are not as simple as you think."

As a direct descendant of the Second Progenitor, Iblisbel is very well-informed.

Even the fact that Lin Que suppressed eleven Progenitor-level familiars just by relying on his aura not long ago, he knew about it.

And precisely because of this, he knew how terrifying this Fourth Progenitor's strength was.

"Even if the Sage is successfully resurrected, it is not in its peak state at the beginning and needs a certain amount of time to grow."

"If it is discovered by the Fourth Progenitor before this, not only might our efforts be in vain, but we ourselves will also have to be involved."

"I think you are the one who is being too naive."

Seeing Iblisbel backing out, a cold smile appeared on Mercury Amatsuka's face.

"Don't tell me you think the barrier you broke when you just came in was born naturally."

"What do you mean?"

Iblisbel's face sank: "Isn't that barrier set up by the Itogami Island officials?"

"Of course not."

Mercury Amatsuka was very clear about this: "That barrier was set up by Kensei Motosuwa himself, specifically targeting me."

"After you destroyed it, although I gained the right to enter and exit here freely, the other party will also be aware of it."

"Why didn't you say such things earlier."

Iblisbel wanted to curse.

The Adlard Monastery barrier was broken, and Kensei Motosuwa would inevitably notice the situation here.

The Fourth Progenitor is currently beside Kensei Motosuwa, and the other party will definitely tell the Fourth Progenitor after discovering something is wrong.

Even if the familiar of the War King of Oblivion that sneaked in with him could interfere with the space of Itogami Island and prevent the Fourth Progenitor from teleporting directly, the current situation is still very dangerous.

Whether to continue resurrecting the Sage or choose to run away, a decision must be made immediately.

And as someone who cherishes his life, Iblisbel naturally didn't want to take the risk of staying here.

"If you insist on resurrecting the Sage, do it yourself. I'm leaving."

As the voice fell, Iblisbel turned and walked toward the outside of the church.

"Scared away just like that?"

Mercury Amatsuka was stunned, obviously not expecting Iblisbel's courage to be so small, running away as soon as he said so.

Of course, Mercury Amatsuka didn't care too much about this.

Iblisbel's real role is to run errands for the First Progenitor.

Sending him the materials needed to resurrect the Sage, and the sacrifices to help the Sage grow quickly after resurrection.

Now that everything is in hand, whether there is Iblisbel's assistance or not is not important. At most, the resurrection progress will be a little slower.

"Let's modify the sacrifice first. Installing a pseudo-Alchemy Core on a human body is quite troublesome. I have to strive to get it done within three minutes."

Withdrawing his gaze from the gate, Mercury Amatsuka looked at the blonde girl lying on the ground in the corner of the church.

The other party is the sacrifice that Iblisbel ran thousands of miles to send specifically to him.

It is said that the other party is the carrier of some evil god embryo and contains extremely vast magical power in her body.

As long as the Sage swallows her after resurrection, it will not be a problem for her strength to recover to its peak in a short time.

However...

Just as Mercury Amatsuka was about to modify it, a scream suddenly came from outside the church.

"Hm? This voice... is that guy's?!"

Mercury Amatsuka was startled, recognizing that this was the voice of Iblisbel who had just left.

Even if Mercury Amatsuka was confident, after hearing this voice, a bad premonition still rose in his heart.

Could it be that the Fourth Progenitor really came?

"That's right, that's right~ I'm here~!"

Seeming to have heard his inner voice, Lin Que's voice suddenly came from outside the church.

Crack~!

The sound of the door opening rang out, and the church gate slowly opened from the inside out.

"Long time no see, Mercury Amatsuka."

Lin Que walked in from the outside with Nagisa Akatsuki and the others: "We haven't seen each other for three minutes, did you miss me?"

"How is this possible!"

Looking at this murderer who had just killed his clone, Mercury Amatsuka couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

"Didn't that guy say that the space of Itogami Island was interfered with!"

"How did you lock the coordinates so quickly and come over from the Magus Craft North North North Side!"

Boom—!

A terrifying aura suddenly fell, pressing Mercury Amatsuka's body to the ground.

"Space was interfered with?"

Walking to the other party step by step, a playful smile appeared on Lin Que's face.

"Are you not awake yet? You actually believed that a Progenitor-level familiar could affect my actions."

"Damn it."

Mercury Amatsuka's face was full of unwillingness: "It was only one step away from success!"

"That's what you thought."

Lin Que shook his head, not interested in talking to this guy who couldn't recognize his own identity.

Glancing at the staff beside Mercury Amatsuka, the shadow under Lin Que's feet spread instantly, swallowing him and Mercury Amatsuka in one bite.

In the next second, a large amount of knowledge about alchemy began to emerge in Lin Que's mind.
