Chapter 377

Adlard Monastery.

"Too slow."

Looking at the figure walking over, Iblisbel asked impatiently.

"Just to get something, why so slow."

"This can't be blamed on me."

Mercury Amatsuka shrugged: "Things were going quite smoothly, but then a Fourth True Ancestor popped out halfway."

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

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

"Fourth True Ancestor?"

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

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

"Even if you ask me such things, I couldn't possibly know."

Mercury Amatsuka replied: "Anyway, the last image my clone sent back before it died indeed showed the Fourth True Ancestor."

"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 out a clear red gem from his pocket, Mercury Amatsuka handed it to Iblisbel.

"The Alchemy Core has been obtained, and the sacrifice 553 has also been put 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; we can just continue to act according to the original plan to resurrect the Sage!"

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

As a direct descendant of the Second True Ancestor, Iblisbel was very well-informed.

Even the fact that Lin Que had subdued eleven True Ancestor-level familiars just by his aura not long ago was something he was aware of.

Precisely because of this, he knew how terrifying this Fourth True Ancestor's strength was.

"Even if the Sage is successfully resurrected, it won't be in its peak state at the beginning and will need a certain amount of time to grow."

"If we are discovered by the Fourth True Ancestor before that, our efforts might not only be in vain, but we ourselves will also be finished."

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

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

"You don't think the barrier you broke when you just came in was born naturally, do you?"

"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 perceive it."

"Why didn't you say this earlier."

Iblisbel wanted to curse.

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

The Fourth True Ancestor is currently next to Kensei Motosuwa, and the other party will definitely tell the Fourth True Ancestor after discovering something is wrong.

Even if the War King's familiar that sneaked in with him could interfere with Itogami Island's space and prevent the Fourth True Ancestor 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 risk staying here.

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

As his 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 to be so timid that he would run away as soon as he said so.

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

Iblisbel's real role was to run errands for the First True Ancestor.

Delivering the materials needed to resurrect the Sage, jb, and the sacrifices to help it grow quickly after resurrection.

Now that everything is in hand, Iblisbel's assistance is not important; at most, the resurrection progress will be a bit slower.

"Let's modify the sacrifice first; installing the pseudo-Alchemy Core on a human body is quite troublesome, so I have 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 was the sacrifice that Iblisbel had traveled thousands of miles to deliver to him.

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

As long as the Sage devours her after resurrection, it will be no problem for its power to recover to its peak in a short time.

However...

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

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

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

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

Could it be that the Fourth True Ancestor 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, have you missed me?"

"How is this possible!"

Looking at this murderer who had just killed his clone, Mercury Amatsuka couldn't help but exclaim.

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

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

Boom—!

Terrifying momentum suddenly fell, pressing Mercury Amatsuka's body to the ground.

"Space was interfered with?"

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

"Are you not awake? You actually believed that a True Ancestor-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, but he had no interest 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 gulp.

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