Chapter 473

Waterfall cave

Skinorse read the contents of the letter .

"Master, I cannot control the demon in my heart… The will to kill is eating away at my soul . A sinister existence is tempting me . She also planted a plague in Gladstone… Ah, I must control myself… no, no, that's too hard . I don't know what I may do . I just want to kill right now . I want to kill everyone… I need power… ah, I can't control myself anymore!"

Both the letter's content and handwriting were messy . There would be pauses occasionally too . One could feel the writer's conflicted thoughts . Skinorse read softly; the content made everyone in the cave quiet down .

When he finished, the cave was silent . The only sounds came from Priest Moya . She was treating Annie's wounds . Her expression was still calm, and her movements were steady . She didn't seem affected at all .

After a long while, Kanorse said, "I saw General ma.s.sacre Garrason Town with my own eyes . Many innocent civilians were killed just for interacting with victims of the plague . There were more than 30,000 people in the town . Less than 800 survived . If Gladstone really had the plague, I'm afraid…"

Gladstone City had a population of more than 100,000 . The army had gone once the plague erupted . With the general's current state, there must have been an unprecedented ma.s.sacre .

"I'm afraid Master Link might be the only one to stop Duke Abel," Morrigan said . "We must bring this letter to him . "

"Who'll do it?" Skinorse asked .

As soon as he spoke, everyone looked at him, including Priest Moya .

"Your Battle Aura is now at Level-8," Morrigan said . "You're best at sneaking around, and you're fast . You aren't hurt either . You are the most suitable . "

"By myself?" Skinorse wasn't confident . Nagas had stopped Kanorse earlier . This meant that they knew about the letter's existence .

He knew first-hand how terrifying the Nagas were . If he ran into them on the way, he would basically be dead meat .

At that time, Moya pulled all wooden shards from Annie's back . She took out a thin silver needle and threaded it to start st.i.tching up Annie's wound . While threading carefully, she said, "Princess Annie and Kanorse's injuries are very grave . This is a juncture . Especially Kanorse, I can feel that his energy has changed . When he recovers, he might level up to the Legendary state, but this requires rest . He shouldn't exert too much energy for the next month . "

Morrigan shrugged . "I'll only hold you back . My magic is needed to keep this cave hidden as well . "

Skinorse made a face and scratched his head . "I shouldn't have looked at the letter . Now I've dug a ditch for myself . "

If he knew this would happen, he would've minded his own business instead of saving them .

Kanorse looked apologetic . "Should I go with you?"

Skinorse sighed, shaking his head . "It's fine . You're so injured, you'll kill me . "

He put the letter away and said to everyone in the cave, "Alright, I'm going now . This will be very dangerous . If you have any lifesaving things, please give me some . "

Moya tossed over a bottle . "This is a highly effective potion, equal to a Level-7 healing spell . Use it when needed . "

Morrigan tossed him a ring . "Apparition Ring . This is what keeps me alive . You know how to use it, right?"

"I know; I've wanted this ring for a long time . Thanks . "

Kanorse thought for a while . He didn't have anything and could only shrug . "Sorry . "

Skinorse wasn't surprised at this . Kanorse was a pure Warrior and only knew how to fight head on . He wasn't from a high-cla.s.s family either . The only good thing on him was the sword that Link had made for him .

If he had any lifesaving things, he wouldn't get beaten by the Nagas so badly .

"It's alright . These things and Princess Annie's crossbow should be enough . " Skinorse put everything away and said, "Time is tight, so I'll go now . Moya, if anything happens, don't cry for me . Just pray, and I'll go to heaven happily . "

"Ps.h.!.+" Moya rolled her eyes and went back to the treatment, ignoring him .

Skinorse chuckled . He turned to look at the waterfall and took a deep breath . Then he said to Morrigan, "Give me a waterproof s.h.i.+eld . "

Morrigan took down a Level-2 Protective Barrier . A gla.s.sy glow enveloped Skinorse, and he started running . At the mouth of the cave, he jumped in a standard diving form . He burst out of the waterfall . Only his voice traveled back to the cave, "Everyone, the amazing hero has stepped onto an epic path again . "

Everyone in the cave was speechless .

Outside, Skinorse slid down the waterfall and quickly entered the pool of water below . He struggled for a while before he was free from the fast current . By the time he climbed onto the bank, the protective spell was already dim .

However, its job was done . Skinorse was still dry . His Battle Aura vibrated and broke the enchantment . The light gray Battle Aura emerged, obscuring his body .

He ducked into the forest and disappeared .

Not long after, a Naga appeared by the water . She circled the place . After a while, she sped towards the direction that Skinorse had disappeared in .

However, successfully pursuing someone depended on brains instead of speed .

The Naga wasn't very successful . After half an hour, she had to stop because she'd completely lost Skinorse . She paced around, seemingly very agitated . A few minutes later, she sped towards another direction . After many miles, there was an empty s.p.a.ce around 150 feet wide . It was an empty camp surrounded by a wooden wall .

Two big and meaty demons stood by the entrance as guards . There were seven or eight Nagas and more than 20 Dark Elves inside .

A Dark Elf went up to the Naga . "Lord, you're back . "

The Naga nodded and tossed her spear to the Dark Elf . She went towards the round-topped wooden cabin in the center of the camp . At the door, she knocked lightly . "Commander?"

"Enter," a soft female voice said . At the same time, the door creaked open .

The Naga walked in . Inside, a black-haired Naga was twisting around in incredible postures on the ground . She was working out .

Other than the impossible flexible body, the black-haired Naga looked just like a human girl . Her body was even smaller than the average Naga . The only special characteristic was a dark red spear mark on the left side of her forehead .

Seeing her subordinate, she brought her feet down from the back of her head . Glancing at the subordinate's expression, she asked, "Why did you fail? Was Ellie killed?"

The Naga nodded and spat, "We were going to succeed, but a human Magician popped out, saving them . I found their aura later, but he's very tricky, and I lost him . "

"Did they take the general's letter?" The black-haired Naga covered her forehead . She seemed to have a headache . The human general was about to become the master's killer, but then something like this had to happen .

After a few minutes of silence, she suddenly said, "Link destroyed Master's altar . This means he will go north soon . Since we can't stop the letter, let's go stop Link . "

"How? We don't know how he'll get there . "

"That's easy . Link has Yabbas in his territory, and he has their airs.h.i.+ps . Since he's going north, he'll most likely use their s.h.i.+ps . That way, he'll go in a straight line from Ferde to the Orida Fortress . If we go straight south, we'll definitely run into him . "

The other Naga was still hesitant . "Commander," she said softly, "Link is a Legendary Magician who specializes in spatial magic . I'm afraid we're not his match . "

Earlier, he'd destroyed three altars and killed two pets . This type of ability was honestly terrifying .

The black-haired Naga scoffed . "He's powerful, but we have more people . I want to experience his power too! I believe that even if I can't kill him, I can definitely defeat him . We don't have much time . Let's go now!"

As she spoke, she stood up and grabbed in the air . Light flashed, and a spear crackling with silver lightning appeared in her hands .

It wasn't just lightning . At closer inspection, one would see that when the spear's tip cut across the air, it would create ripples . The silver-white body also had a line of golden Agatha runes .

Translated, it meant, "Destiny cannot be defied . "

Seeing the spear, the Naga Warrior was stunned . "The Spear of Victory! Did Master give it to you?"

The Spear of Victory was an upper order Legendary weapon . It was ranked fifth of all the Legendary weapons in Agatha history . Usually, the G.o.d of Destruction would only give it to his most beloved and talented Agatha Naga .

The black-haired Naga looked proud . "Yes, he gave it to me . I believe it will bring victory to us, just like in history!"

The Naga Warrior lowered onto one knee and sighed . "That human Magician is going to be in trouble!"
