chapter-156-1
Even at Christmas, there were very few places in the south where it snowed. Even if there were, it was due to the occasional weather changes. Again, the occurrence was infrequent. The so-called White Christmas only existed in imagination.
Besides, Christmas was not a traditional holiday in this eastern country.
“But it does not prevent young men and women from looking forward to Christmas gifts, especially young girls and cute boys.”
“Cute boy?”
The voice was filled with doubt. The location was on the city building’s roof. The person asking the question was chubby. However, his fat did not make his figure bloated but turned him into a towering, sturdy, and perhaps powerful guy.This person should be around his twenties or thirties. Let’s use youth to define his age. At the same time, he was gluttonous. Even if he was talking, he kept eating, gorging down a family bucket of popcorn for more than half. After asking the question, the young man grabbed a handful of popcorn with his hand and stuffed it directly into his mouth. There were still a lot of residues stuck around his lips.
Although curious, the young man didn’t seem to care much about getting the answer. In fact, the guy receiving his question made a similar sigh, not answering the question.
The fat youth didn’t care much at the moment. He stuttered, “Eric, you don’t have to hurry to leave. After all, this city is the True Dragon of Divine Land’s territory. The dragon is watching over this place. If we caught her attention, it would be troublesome even for us. True Dragon of Divine Land is not as foolish as the elderly at the Michael Club.”
The person who the fat youth spoke to was surprisingly Eric, the only dream-eating tapir in the world and possessed incredible power.
“I heard about the power of True Dragon of Divine Land a long time ago, but unfortunately, I have never gotten to know her. So I don’t know how the dream of the Divine Land Guardian tastes.” Eric smiled slightly.
Unlike the fat youth putting all his attention on eating popcorn, Eric concentrated on a small gift box in his palm. Should I open it?
“I advise you not to covet True Dragon of Divine Land, especially above this land. Otherwise, I won’t save you.” The fat youth shook his head, “Even if you have already gotten a piece of the world fragment and have the qualifications to join us, you’re merely completing the test and yet to be part of us formally.”“You bunch are strict.” Eric shook his head. “The Fallen Ones…”
“The Fallen Ones?” The fat youth frowned in displeasure, “You are almost one of us, so don’t use this prejudiced narration. We are Transcended!”
Eric just smiled, put away the gift box in his hand, and stood up, “It’s fine to be under the Dragon of Divine Land’s watch since we can’t avoid troubles all the time. But, if the store owner puts his eye on us, it will be worse than being troubled.”
“You mean the club?” The fat youth was only slightly intimidated with True Dragon of Divine Land, but now he went silent. Instead, he grabbed the popcorn and stuffed them into his mouth.
“Dong Zhuo, your mission is just to monitor me to complete the test.” Eric said calmly at this time, “Now my test is over, then leave. The store owner likes the city. I still recommend you to keep a low profile.”
“En…” The fat youth nodded and stood up without retorting.
Behind him, there was a space distortion. This was a passage leading to the dimension crack to enter the Transcended’s residence.
They called this place: Mona Sea. (TN: Mona [1 meant thinking)
Eric followed Dong Zhuo into the crack. After the two disappeared, the crack slowly faded and finally healed. After they left, the sky suddenly brightened like daylight.
It turned out that there was a plaza below. This building was a plaza hotel. On Christmas Eve tonight, the plaza had a large-scale event. The entire place was lit with colorful lights.
…
Magic power was an incredible power. It used to exist only in film and television or fantasy works. Professor Trevor never thought he would master it one day.
In the morgue, Professor Trevor was happily absorbing the spirit bodies contained in the fresh corpses by drawing out the ritual circle recorded in “Book of the Dead.” These spirit bodies transformed into pure magic power gave Professor Trevor thrills.
Professor Trevor seemed to be much younger, full of energy, and full of power. Of course, he knew it was just an illusion. After the absorption of spirit bodies was over, this feeling would disappear, and his body was still that old body.
I envy the young body full of vitality.
Professor Trevor opened his eyes and looked at Wang Yuechuan, who was sitting next to him and absorbing spirit bodies. The professor was also old, with vitality inferior to the youths. The strength of spirit bodies that he could absorb was naturally inferior to Wang Yuechuan, who was at his prime age. In the energy transformation ceremony, he could only absorb less than one-third of the amount, and Wang Yuechuan obtained the rest of it.
Although Wang Yuechuan didn’t deliberately snatch it during the absorption process, these transformed pure magic powers still chose the body with more vitality and potential next to the professor.
An evil intent flashed in Professor Trevor’s eyes.
Professor Trevor felt it was unjust. He acquired “Book of the Dead” and was capable of interpreting this great ancient book, but the others reaped more benefits than him in the end. Watching Wang Yuechuan get far beyond him, he was aware that he would be eliminated once he was proven of no value.
However, even if this happened in the future, Professor Trevor had no resentment. Because in his opinion, this was expected. If he were put in the same shoe, he would not be as patient as Wang Yuechuan.
No one would be willing to share the ancient and mighty power recorded in the “Book of the Dead.” These were secrets not to be revealed even to his wife and children.
The muddy professor’s gaze turned to the black crystal used to carry out the ritual. He bought this crystal from Liu Zixing. It contained an extraordinary power in the same origin as “Book of the Dead.”
Trevor felt that the magic power he had accumulated was enough to activate the special power in this black crystal.
-A power recorded in the Soul Scripture chapter in the “Book of the Dead,” which the professor had never told Wang Yuechuan.
Professor Trevor’s eyes flashed with a brilliance called greed. As long as he could capture this young body, he would not only be able to regain his youth, but he would have gained decades of lifespan out of thin air. But, more importantly, Wang Yuechuan also possessed magic power. If the professor could smoothly swallow Wang Yuechuan’s soul altogether, he was convinced that he would be able to improve his mastery of “Book of the Dead” to another level.
Please don’t blame me, dear Wang. You’re the one sending me such a great gift in front of my eyes.
It’s Christmas Eve tonight. So I should give you a gift in return out of courtesy.
The professor was firmed with his decision. Just like when he was trying to raise money to buy the black crystal in Liu Zixing’s hand, he disregarded the opposition of his family and sold everything he could sell, even breaking the law. Professor Trevor had already begun to communicate quietly with the special power contained in the black crystal.
Wang Yuechuan still sat on the ground ignorantly, absorbing the power of spirit bodies intently.
Professor Trevor closed his eyes at the same time. He only felt that his consciousness was out of his body, watching everything in the morgue from a strange angle.
His consciousness seemed to have turned into a dormant poisonous snake. The poisonous snake came out of its cave for its prey, and Wang Yuechuan was his prey.
Dear Wang, be my nourishment. I will treat your body well!
Trevor’s consciousness expanded and lunged towards Wang Yuechuan’s body! He even seemed to see the glory of the moment of success!
But just as his consciousness was about to plunge into Wang Yuechuan’s body, Wang Yuechuan, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards Trevor’s consciousness!
