Chapter 473 - Chapter 473: Chapter 447 Night Death God (2/2)
Even some of the alchemical tools on him were destroyed along with it, leaving only the Forbidden rare artifact undamaged.
“`
Although it remains a mystery how the Forbidden rare artifacts came to be and who exactly created them, so far the circle of mysticism has no thoroughly compelling explanation.
Yet, their almost universally shared trait of indestructibility is quite obvious.
Chris, expressionless, floated in the sky, with the breeze flowing by, acutely felt the substantial depletion of Spiritual Power—even though he only used the “illusion” for a brief few seconds, it still consumed a lot of Spiritual Power.
“Chris Fischer, you really showed up!”
Just then, a mechanical, icy voice rose from the ground.
It was him.
Chris instantly looked toward the ground, and his powerful Perception Ability immediately detected who the comer was.
It was the towering figure whose face had been replaced with an Iron Mask, and whose arms both in front of his shoulders and behind his back, were all mechanically constructed—the Destroyer!
The Cardinal of the Reforging Church had suddenly arrived personally at this location.
Chris frowned, having not noticed him until now, despite having a vast range of perception, which meant the Destroyer had some kind of anti-surveillance capability or mysterious item.
Behold, the Destroyer’s body swiftly ascended, and a mechanical tone emerged beneath his Iron Mask.
“Don’t be surprised why I arrived so swiftly, Chris Fischer. I’ve implanted ‘special machinery’ inside each of those individuals, which can sense their condition, so I knew the moment you engaged in battle. It’s just unfortunate that I’m still a step too late… But you must have expended a lot, haven’t you?”
Chris, silent and unseen within the darkness, calmly waited for his Spiritual Power to regenerate, while the Destroyer continued to speak his mind.
“I’ve always felt that something was amiss. Why does the Fischer family possess such… comprehensive Extraordinary powers? Although you’ve found excuses, which may deceive ordinary people, I have done my investigations…”
“It interests me greatly that some of the Cyart people who aren’t from the Fischer family, can also use the abilities specific to your family members. Ha ha ha ha!”
“Speak, Lord Chris, please tell me…”
The tone of the Destroyer was exceptionally polite, but his body quivered along, containing a hint of madness.
“Could it be that you have mastered a method to pass on Extraordinary powers?”
“Also, have you worshipped some extremely evil mystical entity to gain such power? Otherwise, I can’t comprehend its origin…”
The Destroyer’s near-mad ravings almost stirred up a tempest; he was simply too smart. After combining a vast amount of information for research, he had guessed part of the truth about the Fischer family!
Chris frowned, having never heard of this matter from Felix.
It is very likely that this surmise was just the personal research of the Destroyer, not yet validated, so he had not informed the rest of the Church.
Good news.
The Destroyer continued speaking.
“My instruments have sensed it! Lord Chris Fischer, the ‘Killing Intent’ emanating from you is gradually rising, which means I must have said something right. You plan to silence me, don’t you?”
His excitement was unchecked as he raised all four hands, for this discovery was madness itself, enough to change the future of the entire world!
“Excellent, absolutely splendid! Lord Chris, I’m so excited I can hardly contain myself! The whole Fischer family, I hope you will all become subjects of my research—aside from that fellow Felix, the rest should let me study them thoroughly from start to finish, alright?”
The tone of the Destroyer had reached the edge of frenzy, it was evident that the contents of that speculation were incredible to him, and everyone knew it was of extreme importance!
“Extraordinary powers that can be stably passed down without depending on bloodlines, it’s nothing short of a miracle! Not even the legendary Philosopher’s Stone can compare! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!”
Meanwhile, Chris no longer hid his Killing Intent, which, in an instant, seemed to make the pitch-black sky grow colder.
With an expressionless face, he was resolutely determined to kill the highly esteemed Cardinal before him!
Yet, within the Destroyer’s heart, there was not the slightest trace of fear.
“Heh, Lord Chris Fischer, although your Killing Intent is very strong, let me clarify one thing… you have surely killed far fewer people than I have.”
