Chapter 154: Once You Come, Don't Leave

As night fell, No. 14 Luoning Street finally turned off the lights until half past ten.

After another two hours, when the campus fell into silence, the group of people quietly walked nearby.

They had not been squatting at Aiwass' door before.

These demonologists didn't even hide anywhere on purpose. They just entered a bar and drank until now.

No one would have thought that four drunken men would be a threat - besides, it was not their first time here, but they had been coming here almost every day for more than a week to drink and play cards. He even became familiar with some of the students.

But this time is different.

After leaving the bar, they found a small alley and used the half-arranged sobering ceremony to get rid of the alcohol in themselves.

"Get ready to take action."

The team leader was a blond man with a slicked back hair, a white suit, and the look of a lawyer.

He said in a deep voice: "Jim, go and arrange the curse. Braden, go and cut off his phone line. Pero and I will arrange the ceremony and summon our two demons first. Then you two come over and put the curse on him." Your devil dog is summoned."

"Are you sure you only want the sleeping curse?"

Jim, the shortest and youngest, asked back: "The sleeping curse can be nested within the weakness curse... Didn't you say that the lame man has superb swordsmanship? I still think that the sleeping curse can be nested within the weakness curse, and then add a suffocation curse." Kill him. This is the safest way and we can go up there."

"I am sure."

The team leader replied with certainty: "It would be fine if I was the only one in Moriarty's dormitory...and his maid and his sister. Between the three of them, the power of the curse would be much diluted. In this way, they Can't sleep too deeply.

"The curse of weakness will make people realize that they are cursed. If one of them sleeps lightly, they may wake up due to a sudden feeling of powerlessness, and then wake up the others together. Don't bother, Jim. The curse can More is not better.”

"Then otherwise..."

Jim said again: "Or we can release the curse and pour poison gas into his bedroom. In this way, no one will even realize that he was killed, and they may think that he was poisoned by gas... In this way, we will not It will be investigated by the authorities.”

"Do you think the dormitory where the young master lives is the same as your little shabby house?"

Fat Perot mocked: "How can his bedroom be connected to the kitchen? You don't have to use your brain."

“...I just feel a little uneasy, mentor.

Jim whispered: "Isn't it going too smoothly?"

The team leader shook his head: "It went smoothly because we were well prepared and it had nothing to do with him. You are overthinking."

After about half an hour, we were almost ready.

The sleeping curse took effect correctly, the phone line was cut, and two demons and two demon dogs were summoned.

Although Jim was a little uneasy.

But the leader felt that this was just because he, the apprentice, was too timid.

Jim is just sixteen years old this year, a little younger than the Aiwass they want to assassinate. He never graduated from middle school, but joined a gang. Because he was very clever, he was favored by Lloyd's, and because he had adaptability beyond the road, he became the leader's apprentice.

Powerful demonologists are always accompanied by their apprentices.

Curses and rituals are very similar to cooking in a sense - there is not much time actually spent on cooking, and the most time-wasting part is the preparation of ingredients and the cleaning afterwards. These apprentices are specifically designed to replace their mentors in doing these meaningless repetitive tasks.

It is equivalent to helping the cook.

But actually the team leader doesn’t like Jim very much.

Generally speaking, demonologists have to have a bit of a no-holds-barred attitude. Otherwise it will be difficult to get promoted. And Jim is too timid. He always predicts something pessimistically... At the beginning, the team leader will pay a little more attention. Maybe this kid is actually a suitable person for the road, and his words are somewhat prophetic. Woolen cloth?

But many times in a row, what Jim predicted did not happen. The team leader finally determined that he was simply too cowardly.

——Aren’t they cautious enough?

The ambush was carried out a full week in advance and four extraordinary beings were used, two of whom were third-level elites. There are also extremely powerful blade demons that can confront fourth-level extraordinary beings head-on, and whip demons that can assist the blade demons. They also placed a curse on Aiwass in advance and cut off all possibilities for him to contact the outside world——

For a transcendent who only has the first level and is dedicated to the path, the team leader feels that he is ridiculously cautious.

That is because Aiwass is the one who can kill the Abnormal Limb Demon in an instant, so he attaches great importance to him.

Although Aiwass himself is not strong, he is a member of the Moriarty family after all. The extraordinary items he holds in his hands are very powerful, and there may be other items in his possession...

So their plan is to use a curse to put Aiwass into a sleep that cannot be awakened, and then sneak into it to assassinate him.

Aiwass has to go to class tomorrow. So at one o'clock in the morning, he must have been asleep by this time.

Since he was already asleep, he was unaware that he was under the sleeping curse. That would only make him sleep deeper and more soundly. Even if a thief came directly into his house and removed everything he could move, he would never wake up.

If everything goes well, it would be best to kill them with one shot. This would make them look more like killers who have mastered the art of curses, and it would be difficult to investigate them.

And the demons they brought were only used to fight against ambushes, helpers, and bodyguards who might be hidden.

What a pity.

The leader thought.

After all, this time they were fighting away from home, and many of the ritual props he prepared could not be used. Otherwise, he would not have to be so careful.

For example, the [Cursed Infant] made from a cursed baby can deliver a powerful blow that is sure to hit and directly destroy the heart of others; the [Nightmare Illusion] made from the scalp of a person with migraine can make someone go crazy due to uncontrollable severe pain; the [Zombie Bait] made from a hanged old man can make everyone around him be attacked by cold air and move more slowly...

These are all consumable props that allow him to kill other Dao Transcendents above his level.

But because they must be kept in a specific environment, they cannot be used in this kind of surprise battle.

Or, it is precisely because the ritual props he relies on cannot be used that the leader is so cautious.

】

Because once you get used to the powerful power obtained by using the ritual materials made by your own people, you will feel extremely uncomfortable when you leave it. You feel that you have suddenly become weak... even if this "feeling of weakness" is your true level.

Just as Braden, a thief, was prying the door lock, Jim, who was looking around, suddenly pointed to the sky: "What is that, a firefly?"

"It should be some kind of butterfly."

The fat man Pero crossed his arms and commented: "It's a pity, it would be better if it had a net bag. It looks like this thing should be valuable."

"Jim, pay attention..."

The leader said unhappily.

But at this moment, he unconsciously raised his head and suddenly saw the butterfly flying slowly towards them.

It was so beautiful that it dragged a few sparks while flying.

Like scale powder.

The leader suddenly raised his right hand and pointed his index finger at the butterfly.

He did not speak, and did not even consume mana. The butterfly, as beautiful as a spark, seemed to be pierced by some dark invisible thing, split in half, and suddenly extinguished.

He showed a proud and happy smile.

It was not because the butterfly had any meaning, but simply because he destroyed a beautiful thing and felt happy about it.

"The mentor's curse is really powerful..."

Jim flattered.

Pero shook his head with some regret: "It looks quite valuable, you don't have to curse it."

"What kind of valuable goods can a butterfly flying in the city be?"

The leader asked back: "At most, it escaped from the school laboratory... That also means it can't be resold. Just curse it to death."

Pointing at people, this is the simplest curse.

When someone points at you with their hands behind your back, you sometimes feel a sharp feeling; this feeling is the same as being pointed at with the tip of a knife.

The third path characteristic [damage curse] possessed by the leader is a very powerful purple path characteristic.

He can attach physical damage to all the curses he casts - this is also the reason why he lets his apprentices curse the target. Because if he personally arranges the sleeping curse, it will become a nightmare curse, which is more likely to wake others up; if he uses the poisonous food curse, in addition to corrosive damage, it can also cause continuous weak cutting injuries to the esophagus; and if the dirty blood curse is used, it will cause the other party's uterus to bleed continuously.

He only needs to point it casually to make the target seem to be stabbed by a knife and bleed profusely.

The damage is not very high. A healthy ordinary person will die of blood loss after being pointed at by him forty or fifty times.

He personally tested this number.

When the leader just got this path characteristic, he killed many people in the Lloyd's District with the curse, and then he summed up the law of this path characteristic.

After all, he could only see the unclear words like [Damage-type curse: All kinds of curses can hurt people]. The specific effect has to be tried by himself.

But this kind of thing is not too troublesome for him.

It's like a child getting an interesting toy-what new effects will those curses that he is familiar with have after being attached with this characteristic? He was very curious about this and did experiments accordingly.

It was this unscrupulous heart that took pleasure in hurting others with extraordinary power that allowed him to successfully summon and tame the Blade Demon.

But at this moment, the leader suddenly noticed a flash of fire from the corner of his eye.

In the dark night, it looked so bright.

He turned around and found that it was indeed a ball of fire in the air - the butterfly that he had smashed before, after falling, was reborn in the flames from a position close to them!

When the butterfly slowly flew towards Jim, and Jim curiously reached out to catch it.

The leader's face suddenly changed, and he felt a strong sense of crisis. He jumped up and rolled to the side in embarrassment.

The fat man Pero felt the same as him, but his body was too bloated and clumsy. He wanted to escape but failed.

When Jim touched the butterfly, a ball of blazing flames suddenly spread in all directions with the butterfly as the center, forming a huge fireball with a radius of about three meters.

The fireball did not explode, but kept spinning, swallowing Jim and Pero, pulling them so that they could not leave. Their shrill screams penetrated the flames and rushed out, ringing in the silent night.

"——What the hell?!"

The leader's face suddenly changed.

The next moment, the bodies of a demon dog and a whipping demon suddenly became blurred. They gradually collapsed and disintegrated at a speed visible to the naked eye-this is the expulsion phenomenon caused by the death of the contractor.

Just a face-to-face, Jim and Pero were swallowed by the flames. Jim was fine, but Pero, who was at the third energy level, should not have died inexplicably in such a place-he was completely killed by Jim!

Only he who avoided the butterfly and Braden who was picking the lock survived.

At this moment, the same butterfly as before flew towards him again.

The leader did not hesitate this time, condensed a dark magic ball with a gloomy cold air, and fired it directly.

It smashed the butterfly again...

But this time the leader saw clearly that after the butterfly was smashed, it was reborn in the flames soon. The leader changed the spell to smash it again, and it was reborn again.

What on earth is this? !

The leader became extremely fearful, he had never heard of such an ability.

"Open, open!"

Brayden shouted happily and opened the door.

"Go in and hide!"

The leader said without hesitation.

But the next moment, Brayden screamed and ran out.

But as the gunshot rang out, his calf was shot and he fell to the ground with a scream.

As the door opened.

Evans, who should have been sleeping, walked out slowly with a dangerous smile.

His left hand was behind his back, and his right hand was placed in front of him, naturally bent. A butterfly made of flames stood quietly on the tip of his middle finger.

"Here you are, guest..."

Evans said with a smile: "Since you are here, don't leave, right?"

An hour ahead of schedule, the update is completed!
