Chapter 1676: The Reunited Demon

The female sorcerer raised her hand to block the splashing water with a transparent force field, and after confirming that the low-whisper element was still so thin, she returned to her position just now.

Even though such a violent explosion occurred underwater, the bottle remained motionless at the bottom of the water, as if it were just a phantom.

"Interesting."

The brothers then put their hands together to form a frame and aimed it at the bottle. After waiting for a moment, they gave their conclusion:

"Can lock on, this is a physical object, not a phantom."

Saying this, they raised their hands, trying to use sorcery to pull the bottle up from the bottom of the water. With the strength of an Eighth-Ring sorcerer, the effect of the basic sorcery "Object Movement" was not to say such a small bottle, even a stack of Little Mia could be moved, but strangely, Xia De and Megan clearly felt that their spellcasting was successful, but the bottle had no movement at all.

"Let me try."

Megan said, and water columns shot out from the water surface under her feet, then condensed into slender ice pillars in her hands. The ice pillars grew longer and longer until they could touch the glass bottle at the bottom of the water, and then Megan inserted them underwater.

The three and one cat all saw the other end of the ice pillar touch the bottle, and the bottle rolled underwater because of this. But Megan tried to let the ice pillar continue to extend and freeze with the bottle, but the ice pillar in her hand shattered completely.

"I am very sure that such a simple ice-condensing technique, I couldn't have failed."

The brown-haired female sorcerer said with a solemn tone:

"It seems this is one of the relic characteristics. Unless the correct method is used, it is impossible for it to leave the bottom of the water no matter what."

Because the bottle was still sinking at the bottom of the water, even the Great Witch of Knowledge and Wisdom had not yet recognized what this was.

"What is the correct method? Go underwater and touch it with your hands?"

One of the brothers asked, and Xia De the cat reminded:

"Of course impossible, the method is actually very simple. Didn't the notebook we found and the memoir you got already record the method? Count Gaiman set off by boat from the pier alone every time, but he wasn't empty-handed."

"Fishing rod?"

One of the brothers asked, and Megan understood:

"So that's it, but in this way, this relic... fished up by a fishing rod, wish..."

Even if not a Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi, as long as one comes into contact with some fairy tales, one knows what this means.

"Don't think so much, get that thing up first."

Xia De the cat said, and then plucked a cat hair—after transformation, personal items except relics would become part of the appearance, so many toys turned into cat hair. The cat hair rubbed against Megan's clothes and restored to the appearance of a fishing rod.

Megan threw the fishing rod to the brothers. Although they had opinions on this, the man blind in his left eye still cast the fishing line into the water. It could be seen that his casting action was very standard, and the fishhook without bait fell just right next to the bottle.

Then, as if the glass bottle was a magnet, the fishhook was "sucked" over. As the reel turned and the fishing line was retracted, the glass bottle that couldn't be picked up no matter what just now was simply pulled out of the water.

After freezing a small piece of the water surface, the bottle was placed steadily on the ice. The weather around Green Lake was quite good, and the time was approaching noon. Some dazzling spring sunlight shone on the glass bottle, reflecting dazzling and strange seven-colored light. Looking carefully, it was clearly the seven-colored smoke inside the glass bottle that was glowing.

The silver hoop fixed the bottle stopper firmly to the bottle mouth. The silver hoop faced the light, allowing everyone to see the inscription on it—

【I come to fulfill all wishes.】

The three stepped back together, their expressions very solemn. Clearly, when it was at the bottom of the water, the low-whisper element was so slight that one couldn't even notice it without looking at the bottle with eyes, but as the bottle left the water surface, the concentration of the low-whisper element increased rapidly and exceeded the limit of an ordinary "Keeper-level" relic in a very short time.

"Sage-level relic?"

"Yes, Sage-level relic."

The question was asked by Megan, and the affirmative sentence was said by Xia De. He finally confirmed that the thing in front of him was the one he had seen before:

"Sage-level relic—【Greed's Reward】. Demon!"

As the words fell, without anyone touching the bottle, the bottle stopper popped open with a "pop" sound. The seven-colored smoke that was originally rotating slowly in the bottle instantly surged out of the bottle mouth.

And accompanied by the surging seven-colored dreamlike smoke, the light blue transparent giant spirit laughed and appeared in the sunlight, appearing above the water area by Green Lake.

Its upper body wore a sleeveless jacket with unbuttoned buttons, but it was only the upper body, and the lower body connected to the glass bottle in the form of clouds and mist. Looking from the perspective of "Demon Vision," the light blue clouds and mist were clearly composed of countless small souls screaming in black mist, while the glass bottle, which seemed to be empty, gathered an unknown number of souls.

This was exactly the bottle fished up by the bard on the River of Death during the second adventure of the "Seven-Day Journey." Compared to when he encountered this relic last time, there were more souls in the bottle now. Xia De really didn't expect that after five or six thousand years, he would see it again.

"Finally someone saved me from the water!"

The light blue "Giant Spirit," or the sealed "Wish Demon-Zatanna," laughed and said to the three people around:

"Good, good, good, since you saved me, then I will fulfill your three wishes. Speak, mortals, what do you want to get?"

The brothers and Megan holding the cat continued to retreat, but found that the invisible barrier made it impossible for them to leave the bottle too far. Under such circumstances, no one dared to speak, and the blue "Giant Spirit," after finding that everyone was very cautious, crossed its arms on its chest and scanned the circle, clicking its tongue in wonder at these people:

"So that's how it is, wonderful soul, similar soul, and this one!"

The brothers, each blind in one eye, were stared at by its eyes. The huge pressure made them completely confirm that this was a Sage-level relic. The various crazy wailing and prayers of souls that rushed into their minds for a moment almost made them unable to maintain the state of standing on the water surface.

And the demon just scanned past them, and then looked at Megan:

"Look, what did I find? Such a wonderful soul! This is a unique soul that can only be constructed by the great power of fate, right? Double..."

At that moment, Megan seemed to see a giant mouth open, and her soul was about to be sucked in. Her soul, which had basically stabilized, showed unpredictable changes again at this moment. Megan's face turned pale immediately, followed by the disorder of her spirit. She feared this pollution power that could directly interfere with the soul more than anyone else.

Xia De noticed Megan's change and nimbly climbed onto her shoulder along her arm. In the demon's puzzled expression, he did what Little Mia had done before. Of course, compared to the cat calling out the sound of "meow," Xia De would certainly not say such a shameful onomatopoeia:

"Stay away."

The cat said to the increasingly approaching Giant Spirit. He was not afraid of any demon, especially this kind of demon that had turned into a relic. The doctor had told him about the other party, and this was something even the doctor was unwilling to eat.

Because he wanted to intimidate the other party, Xia De's tone was inevitably a bit heavy. The blind brothers looked in horror at the cat provoking this Sage-level relic, and Megan also hurriedly wanted to grab Xia De the cat off her shoulder, but Xia De slapped her hand away:

"Seal."

He reminded, and Megan was stunned, only then taking out Xia De's 【Demon Hunting Seal】 from her bag. Because she knew there was a demon in Green Lake, Xia De specially brought this relic with him. When he was in the Randall River Valley, he was afraid that his identity would be known by the Stone Mirror Demon-Goethe in advance, but now he was eager for the demon to appear so that he could know who the other party was.

The blue Giant Spirit instinctively straightened its body and stayed away from Megan after the 【Demon Hunting Seal】 appeared:

"Demon Hunter?"

It muttered to itself, and then looked at the "little thing" on the woman's shoulder. After hesitating for a moment, it restored the posture of crossing its arms on its chest and said suddenly:

"Oh, I said who it was, so it's you."

The demon observed humans more by looking at the soul, and coupled with the fact that Xia De was also in cat form after drinking the potion on the boat last time, it completely remembered this unique soul.

Megan and the brothers were stunned, but Xia De the cat was not surprised:

"You still recognize me?"

"Of course, you and the cat that kept rubbing against you left a very deep impression on me."

The Giant Spirit nodded and said with great interest:

"Speaking of which, how did you eventually escape from that river leading to true death?"

Xia De actually didn't want to recall that matter:

"Old Ma followed the soul voluntarily."

"Self-sacrifice? So that's it, but it's really a pity that such a noble soul that has suffered so much was let go just like that."

The blue Giant Spirit shook its head and looked at the three people who were listening to this conversation in shock:

"These three, are they your travel companions this time? Like thousands of years ago? I have to admit, you are very good at choosing souls."

Xia De the cat stepped on Megan's shoulder, ignoring the increasingly suspicious eyes of the Edwards:

"Demon, what I want to do has nothing to do with you. Do you want to fight us, or do you want to answer a question like last time, and then everyone goes their own way?"

The "Giant Spirit" looked at him with a smile:

"After seeing you last time, it took me a long time to realize that we didn't meet at all, it was some kind of great power that constructed your group. This time, what confidence do you have? Just rely on that ring?" ===== CHAPTER 1677 =====

"Demon, what I do has nothing to do with you. Do you want to fight us, or do you want to do what you did last time—answer one question, and then everyone goes their separate ways?"

The "Jinn" looked at him with a smile:

"After I last saw you, it took me a long time to realize that we hadn't actually met at all; it was some great power that constructed your group. This time, what confidence do you have? Just relying on that ring?"
