Tick, tick, tick...

The milky white water drops falling from the stalactites became gorgeous and beautiful after entering the sunlight that penetrated through the cracks in the stone. Finally, they fell into the stone nest and made a crisp and rhythmic sound, which also made the whole cave come alive.

However, the atmosphere in the cave was particularly depressing and dull. Collider, who was seriously injured and lying in the corner, had already woken up with his eyes slightly squinted, but he was enduring the severe pain and his breath became extremely subtle.

And Stewich, who was responsible for taking care of him, finally couldn't stand the sleepiness and fell asleep after using hemostatic ointment and taking several medicines. The eyebrows on his young and somewhat immature face were tightly locked. Even in deep sleep, the corners of his eyes twitched from time to time, his hands were clenched a little, and the wizard robe on his body was soaked with sweat.

Raymond, who was sitting cross-legged in the corner of the opposite cave, had a serious expression and was carefully checking all the information stored in the chip.

Before dawn, he was controlled by the inexplicable violent emotion in his chest. After turning the square in front of the Gray Tower into a slaughterhouse, he finally realized that something was wrong after seeing Stevic pointing at him with horror.

The shadow of the combing-haired woman who was very familiar to him in his memory appeared strangely behind him. She summoned all the shadows that seemed to be the souls of the dead on the square that he had killed and poured into her almost imperceptible body!

Raymond, who immediately regained his mind, quickly regained his clarity of mind. The shadow of the combing-haired woman that was floating behind him devoured the souls that escaped from the corpses on the square, and then disintegrated and disappeared.

Raymond, who had already let the chip monitor everything around him and his body, could not find any trace of the shadow of the combing-haired woman in the video records of the chip. In the chip records, there were only the shadows that escaped from the corpses, and the images of them gathering and disappearing in vain!

He realized that the phantom of the combing-haired woman was actually the woman by the stream in the picture of the girl by the stream that he had stored in his storage ring. He didn't know why such a phenomenon occurred, but it was obvious that the reason why he had inexplicably fallen into that violent mood before was because of this.

After calling Stevic, he took them to the foot of the mountain quickly. However, when Raymond, who was eager to check the picture of the girl by the stream, wanted to return to the February Flower Hotel, Stevic, who was always calm, made a suggestion.

Because the warning that Gavin released before was like fireworks. Many night patrols have been summoned, and even the law enforcement team of the Sharp Falcon Legion has arrived, so when Raymond adopted such a brutal massacre, the February Flower Hotel is definitely no longer a safe place to rest.

"The Falcon Corps is a powerful corps of the Supreme Council in public, but in fact, there are many secret troops under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Council. Your behavior in the square before was like a slap in the face to Lord Donald, who commands the Falcon Corps. If you don't want to face the crazy counterattack of the entire Falcon Corps, don't return to the hotel to rest for the time being..."

"And the golden-winged giant eagle Norn and the iron-backed bird you left on the terrace of your room. Even if they were captured by the Falcon Corps, no one dared to hurt them before they could find you, because the incident in the square has exposed your strength. Even if the Supreme Speaker came forward, no one would dare to attack these two hired monsters before communicating with you..."

His face was pale, but he was clear in his narration. And he also had a very reasonable analysis and speculation about the treatment that the golden-winged giant eagle Norn and the iron-backed bird left on the terrace by Raymond would suffer.

So he quickly agreed with Stevic's opinion and came to the cave more than 100 kilometers away from the mountain where the gray tower was located under his guidance.

Gavin, who had already died, was cremated by Stewich according to his instructions before his death, and put into the porcelain bottle that Gavin prepared for him, leaving it for Collider to send back to his hometown later.

After being rescued, the seriously injured Collider was also bandaged and treated by Stewich. However, his injuries were more serious, so he fell into a deep sleep after taking the potion given by Raymond.

Stewich, who had experienced the slaughter-like scene in the square all night, although he was strong-minded and calm beyond the reach of ordinary people, was only a young third-level wizard apprentice after all. The shock to his mind was far beyond what he could bear, so after dealing with everything and sending messages to some of his friends. He fell beside Collider in the corner of the cave and fell asleep.

In the irregularly shaped cave, the corner where Raymond was located was isolated by the isolation barrier he released, but this time Raymond, who was determined to analyze the strange picture of the girl by the stream, was still outside this isolation barrier. He also set up two compound talisman arrays that overlapped inside and outside, completely sealing off the area he was in.

He had doubts about the picture of the girl by the stream before, but because the two strange phenomena that occurred before and after had some signs, and although the two previous appearances were strange, neither of them had the situation of the woman in the picture of the girl by the stream appearing.

However, the situation that appeared in the square this time was completely different from the previous one.

Not only did his emotions suffer a serious impact, but the soul-like substance that escaped from the body of the person who was killed in the end actually made the combed-haired woman in the picture of the girl by the stream appear. This situation was far beyond Raymond's tolerance.

Raymond, who had been meditating here for a long time to restore his body to its peak state, took out the picture of the girl by the stream placed in the storage ring.

The picture of the girl by the stream, which had been sealed and isolated before, had restored the stream flowing from the depths of the forest to its original state, and the whole picture had returned to its original appearance!

The souls of the monsters that had been massacred in the Talit Mountains were once swallowed up by this picture of the girl by the stream. At that time, the beast souls that were swallowed and entered the picture of the girl by the stream floated up and down in the stream, and those who sank to the bottom of the stream and could not be seen were like being melted or absorbed.

At that time, Raymond had thought of discarding the picture of the girl by the stream, but in the end, the chip's measurement of the speed at which the beast souls disappeared in the stream showed that it would take at least several decades for all the beast souls that were swept into the stream by the blue extreme cold breath to sink to the bottom of the stream.

At that time, Crystal also appeared from the rusty badge and absorbed some of the beast souls, so Raymond finally decided to take a certain risk to keep the picture of the girl by the stream.

However, the phenomenon that appeared in the square has exceeded his tolerance limit for the picture of the girl by the stream!

Raymond didn't care about devouring the souls of the dead, but he absolutely couldn't tolerate the mentality of tyranny by influencing or controlling his mood.

So he adjusted his state to the peak in this cave, and after completely isolating himself, he began to conduct a comprehensive and thorough inspection of the picture of the girl by the stream again.

The red light shining in the pupils seemed to be scanning, scanning the picture of the girl by the stream with the highest resolution the chip had, and finally decomposing everything that made up the picture of the girl by the stream to nanometer size, and then the chip used digital methods to store and re-display it.

Because of the accuracy, the speed of this scanning is extremely slow.

But Raymond, who held the picture of the girl by the stream in both hands, kept his hands steady. Although the task progress bar in his mind was almost imperceptibly moving, his expression was becoming more and more peaceful, and his mood was becoming more and more tranquil.

Because if this level of scanning and reconstruction could not find the secret hidden in the picture of the girl by the stream, he was ready to tear open the space at all costs and exile the picture of the girl by the stream into the unknown void...
