Chapter 189 The Strongest Witch in the World

Under the frosty moonlight, Ryan watched the end of the sword leader of the generation.

Then, he turned his gaze to the front.

As he defeated the leader of Tianqing, a series of prompts popped up on the panel.

——

[You have killed the "Azure Leader (Mark of Greed)", the strength of the two sides is being compared...]

[Comparison completed! 】

——

(Body panel)

[Spirituality]: 70 → 80 (100, [Tide of Pain] blessing)

【Physique】：115.66→125.66

——

Ryan felt that his body had become much lighter, and his spirituality and blood were also surging in his body, and then settled into a more powerful force.

As soon as he took office as [Greedy Monarch], he completed the staged construction of [Throne of Satisfaction], which was indeed an unexpected surprise.

But there wasn't much joy on Ryan's face.

In order to defeat the leader of Azure, everyone made too many sacrifices: Durande was devoured, Noelle was injured and fell asleep, and Freni used a second-level body to help him forcefully use secret methods, causing the legendary level Leader Tianqing fell into a daze for a moment, and his situation is now unclear.

"call……"

Sighing slightly, he looked around.

With the death of "Deep Sea Diver" and "Azure Leader", although the formation covering Tianqing Island has not died out, the power of the out-of-control formation has also been greatly weakened, making it difficult to affect the fourth-level professionals. Next , you only need to find the hubs of the formation and destroy them one by one to disarm them.

And these don't require him to care too much.

Just when Ryan was about to disable the "real projection", suddenly, some kind of subtle strange fluctuations appeared at the corpse of leader Tian Qing.

Ryan's eyes narrowed and he looked up, only to see a pair of palms protruding from Leader Tianqing's chest, picking at the cracks in the chest and pulling forcefully on both sides.

Leader Tianqing is not dead yet?

Ryan was shocked, but he soon calmed down.

Since the panel has stated that "the leader of Tianqing has been killed," it proves that this old guy must be dead, and the owner of these hands should be someone else.

"Stab it..."

The chest of the Azure leader's corpse was completely torn open, and a figure covered in sticky black mud emerged from it.

Although his body was covered by black mud, Ryan recognized his identity immediately due to the familiar outline and familiar spiritual fluctuations.

It was Durand.

The black-haired swordsman was in an extremely miserable state at the moment. Much of the flesh and blood on his limbs had disappeared, and he was recovering quickly.

"You guy, you have such a long life, you won't die even if you do this."

A faint arc appeared at the corner of his mouth, and Ryan chuckled.

Seeing that his comrades who were traveling with him were not dead, he felt much relieved.

"...It's true that you are destined to be lucky." Durland's voice was a little hoarse: "What surprises me even more is, Mr. Zifeng, I didn't expect that you can win against such a leader of Azure."

He raised his hand to cover his forehead, his body swaying a little: "After being swallowed by the leader Tianqing, I shared some of his memories and got some very interesting information."

"I will talk to you in detail later after I have sorted it out."

"Now, I need to rest... rest..."

Durland's body shook more and more obviously, and in the end, he fell straight forward. Being able to finish these words was the result of his gritted teeth and perseverance.

Before the black-haired swordsman's face came into close contact with the ground, Ryan had already come to his side, twisted his back collar with one hand, and lifted him up.

It has to be said that the swordsman uniform worn by Durand was made of really good quality. Even after being swallowed by the Azure leader, it could barely remain intact.

Looking at the unconscious black-haired swordsman, Ryan shook his head slightly. He scanned the body of the Azure leader and found no space ring or anything else of value. He sighed with some disappointment.

After thinking about it for a moment, he roughly guessed the reason.

Whether it is setting up a large formation covering the entire Tianqing Island, or various immortal experiments, and upgrading the Tianqing Sword, a huge amount of resources will be consumed.

As the master of an island, it goes without saying that Chief Tianqing is wealthy, but even he will inevitably be stretched thin in the face of such consumption.

Maybe Leader Tianqing still has some money left, but it's just hidden in a secret corner. In this case, it would be ridiculously difficult to find it out.

If Ryan were the leader of Tianqing, he would not carry his wealth with him.

If he had enough time, Ryan wouldn't mind doing a good search. As for now, he needed to return to the Moon Bay Tavern to confirm Freni's situation.

Carrying Durand, he quickly disappeared into the ruins and chasm.

It wasn't until a few hours after he left that bold fourth-level professionals began to risk their lives to come here to investigate.

However, looking at the huge gap stretching over a thousand meters in front of him, the fourth-level professional was so scared that his legs trembled, and he almost moaned: "This... Is this... a miracle?"

...

With Ryan's full-speed attack, he soon returned to Yuewan Hotel with the unconscious Durland.

On the way, he released the "real projection" and returned from the "overturned hall".

What he saw along the way made Ryan feel heavy in his heart.

The formation arranged by the Tianqing leader did not affect those ordinary people who had not yet set foot on the professional path, but as long as they had spirituality, from the first level to the third level, they all turned into nutrients to nourish the flesh and blood tree, leaving only the remnants of clothes and a little blood stains in every corner of the street, proving that these people had existed.

Rushing into Yuewan Hotel, Ryan went straight to Furenie's room.

Ryan casually threw Durrand to sit against the wall of the corridor at the door. Just as he was about to push open the door, he felt something and paused for a moment. Then he said, "It's me."

Hearing the voice, the spirituality behind the door suddenly eased. Ryan pushed open the door and saw Cecilia, who put down her hand from the rapier at her waist and was obviously relieved.

"Sorry, I made you worry. I'm back."

Ryan said softly, casting his eyes on Freni lying on the bed behind Miss Wolf.

Miss Witch closed her eyes, her hands slightly crossed on her flat belly, a few strands of hair scattered on the sheets, and her face was so pale that it made people feel distressed.

Ryan walked to the bedside, looked at Freni who seemed to be sleeping, and pursed his lips.

"...After Lady Freyne used the secret method, she passed out."

Cecilia's cold but worried voice came from behind him. Ryan nodded slightly, then closed his eyes and began to concentrate on sensing Freyne's situation.

In his perception, the girl's spiritual fluctuations were weak but gentle, and her vitality was very dim. There was a sense of confusion between spirituality and vitality. This strange situation made Ryan a little overwhelmed.

He opened his eyes and took out a [First-order Healing Crystal] and [First-order Soul Restoration Crystal] from the space ring, wanting to feed Freyne to eat. At this time, Cecilia's voice came from the side: "Mr. Ryan, I have fed these two crystals to Lady Freyne, but there is no effect..."

Miss Wolf's words made Ryan's movements suddenly paused, and his brows were furrowed.

His own recovery ability is very strong, but the most effective recovery items on hand are only these two crystals. If neither of them has any effect, then...

"Is the origin lost?"

Ryan's expression is solemn.

Once, when Freni drew the Dark Moon Magic Pattern for him, he was weak, and this time, the situation is undoubtedly much more serious.

With a second-level body, if you want to make a legendary professional lose consciousness for a moment, you must pay an extremely heavy price.

That is to say, Freni is a witch, and the secret method she casts is very special. If it is another second-level professional or second-level witch, even if they cast the secret method at the cost of death, they will not be able to make the legendary professional lose consciousness at all.

The gap between the two sides is as much as three levels.

But, what should I do now?

Ryan's heart is extremely heavy.

"Mr. Ryan, do you have any solution?" Cecilia's voice with hope sounded.

Ryan was silent for a moment, and shook his head bitterly: "... No."

"Although the captain is unconscious, there is no sign of decline in his spirituality and vitality. From the current situation, there is no tendency to continue to deteriorate."

"I know very little about the witch, wait..."

Suddenly, Ryan's eyes lit up: "I'll go ask, you wait here."

Without waiting for Cecilia to respond, Ryan raised his hand and pressed it on his forehead, where the connection point of the "overturning mask" was.

He silently recited "the temple of subversion" in his heart, and ten seconds later, Ryan's figure disappeared from the spot.

Cecilia had learned about the "top of overturning" from Ryan in the past, but she still felt extremely magical when she witnessed the teleportation scene with her own eyes.

Combined with what Mr. Ryan said just now, it is obvious that the temple of overturning seems to know more about the witch?

Miss Wolf prayed silently.

She hated this feeling of powerlessness, but at this moment, she could only entrust her fate to a god whose existence she didn't know. .

…

With the flow of light and shadow, the dim underground hall appeared in front of Ryan.

At this moment, the entire overturned hall was empty.

Ryan walked to his seat No. 7 and sat down, and began to call Xue Liya, who inherited the name of "No. 1 Red Kite".

A few seconds later, gray mist flowed on the first seat, and a slender figure appeared.

Xueliya looked at Ryan who had returned with anxiety in his eyes, and asked with concern: "Mr. Zifeng, what happened?"

"Huh..." Ryan said in a deep voice after exhaling lightly and calming down his anxious mood: "Miss Xueliya, it's like this, there is something I need to ask you."

"I have a witch companion who fell into a coma because of using a secret method. I have fed her the 'recovery potion', but it has no effect."

"Do you know what to do in this situation?"

Shelia has long known that Mr. Zifeng has a witch companion. After all, as a witch, she is most sensitive to the aura of magic. And Mr. Zifeng has a very strong aura of unknown magic, which proves that he has a relationship with a certain person. The witch spent a long time together.

After listening to Ryan's words, Shelia said seriously: "Mr. Zifeng, have you checked the condition of your companions? What is their spiritual status?"

The spirituality of a professional is its foundation. From the changes in spirituality, the status of a professional can be roughly seen.

Ryan described it carefully, but Shelia frowned after listening: "Judging from the situation you described, it is most likely a symptom caused by excessive consumption of the source."

Hearing Shelia's answer, Ryan's eyes lit up with joy. Shelia could tell the reason, and presumably she also knew how to alleviate and cure it.

Without waiting for Ryan to ask, Shelia continued: "The consumption of the source is the most difficult to make up for. A small amount of consumption of the source can be slowly recovered through self-rest, but once it is consumed too much, it will far exceed the body's ability. The limit of recovery will lead to your companion’s current situation.”

"Actually, this is pretty good. If the source is consumed any more, I'm afraid I will die directly."

"It's just that although the situation is slightly better, we can't be careless. We must find "rare objects" that can restore her origin to replenish part of her origin. Otherwise, she will be in a coma for a long, long time. "

"Maybe a few years, maybe a few decades..."

"This is the case for ordinary professionals, but for witches, if they cannot wake up in time, they may be completely eroded by pollution while in a coma, and fall into an abyss of eternal destruction."

The joy in Ryan's eyes faded: "Where can I find the 'treasure' that restores its original nature?"

His tone was light, but the will within it was extremely strong.

Freni was in her current situation because of him, and no matter what, he couldn't let her go.

Shelia shook her head: "I don't know either. Every 'rare thing' that can restore its origin is a legendary existence..."

After being silent for a while, she said hesitantly: "If you are the president, you should know some information about the 'treasured things', but..."

"President?" Ryan was like a drowning man grasping the only straw, and quickly asked: "Who is it? How can I contact him?"

"She is the president of our Witch Association." Shelia breathed a sigh of relief: "The strongest witch in the world is known as the 'Crimson Witch'."

According to the rules, she couldn't say this, but Mr. Zifeng was very kind to her, and Mr. Zifeng was also a companion of the witch. Strictly speaking, it was not too illegal.

With these thoughts in mind, Shelia's tone became smoother: "The president has settled on Witch Island all year round. If you want to find her, you can only go to Witch Island to meet her in person."

"No member of the Witches' Guild can actively contact the president."

"Crimson Witch, Witch Island..." Ryan's eyes were heavy: "How far is it from here to Witch Island?"

"The existence of Witch Island is very special. It is located in the 'Magnetic Sea Area', but it is not located at a fixed point. It is moving all the time and requires the guidance of a beacon to find it." Shelia said softly:

"Without the 'beacon', even if you were right in front of Witch Island, you would not be able to observe its existence. Because of this, the witches have been able to have a stable home for so many years."

"Each beacon is issued by the Witches Association and is bound to the holder. It requires the holder to voluntarily inject a specific magical aura to locate the location of Witch Island."

"If forced by outsiders, the location can also be displayed, but the displayed location will be the wrong location. This is also one of the means to prevent the location of Witch Island from being leaked."

"Mr. Zifeng, later I will send my beacon to you through the Overturned Palace, and it will be infused with accurate and specific magical energy. Hold it, and you will be able to find the location of Witch Island."

"I have held this beacon all year round. It is deeply infiltrated by my magical aura. It can still maintain its function after leaving the body, but it can only last for five days at most. After that, the magical aura weakens and the beacon will lose its effect. "

"So, you only have five days at most."

After finishing speaking in one breath, Shelia breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you so much." Ryan said in a grateful tone.

"Compared to your help to me, this little thing is nothing." Shelia shook her head gently: "When you set sail, contact me through the Overturned Palace. At that time, I will send the beacon to a super long-range By teleporting it, the magic aura on the beacon can be maintained to the maximum extent."

…

The light flowed, and when his vision returned to normal, Ryan had returned to the Moon Bay Hotel and Freni's room.

Facing Cecilia's hopeful gaze, Ryan nodded: "We have an idea."

Hearing this, Cecilia breathed a sigh of relief. Because she had been tense for a long time, she felt like she was losing strength and almost lost her balance when she relaxed.

Looking at Miss Wolf Girl's appearance, Ryan sighed in his heart, but the matter had come to this, and there was no point in hiding it, so he told the girl the information he got from Shelia.

After listening, Cecilia fell into a long silence.

She knew Lady Freni's situation was critical, but she didn't expect it to be so critical.

Long sleep, the risk of being completely eroded by pollution...

"Without further ado, let's get ready and set off later." Ryan's calm voice quickly calmed down Cecilia's uneasy heart, and she nodded vigorously.

Ryan turned around and walked to the door, looked at Durland who was still sleeping, took out a [First-Level Healing Crystal] and a [First-Level Soul Recovery Crystal], stuffed it into his mouth with a slightly rough movement, and Hold his chin and help him finish swallowing.

With the help of the two crystals, Durland soon woke up.

Unlike Freni's serious condition, Durrand just fell into a common coma due to excessive consumption. Although waking up early will affect his mental state, it is not a big problem.

Durland, who had just woken up, still had some confusion in his eyes. He subconsciously reached out and touched his chin, feeling a dull pain there.

But he didn't think much about it. He stood up with a shake of his head and looked at Ryan who was wearing a purple mask not far in front of him: "Thank you, Mr. Zifeng."

"I'm leaving Tianqingdao soon."

Ryan's words made Durrand, who was still a little confused, suddenly wake up: "In such a hurry, what happened?"

"Yes." Ryan nodded, but had no intention of explaining. Seeing this, Durland took a deep breath: "I won't ask any more questions. Thank you very much this time, but I still have some things to stay in Tianqingdao. "I'm afraid I can't go with you."

"After I find the wealth left by the leader of Tianqing, I will send it to you through the 'Palace of Overturning'... You took over my 'emergency rescue mission'. I haven't confirmed that it has been completed yet. When the time comes, things will be with 'Tianqing' sent to you together."

"I learned a lot of information from the memory of Leader Tianqing. Time is tight, so I won't talk about other unimportant things, but there is one thing I must tell you."

"The reason why Leader Tianqing conducted experiments on the flesh and blood of the 'Deep Sea Diver' was not his idea. As a swordsman, how could he have thought of such a method? Even if he had thought of it, where did he get the experimental equipment and method?"

"The answer is, of course, someone else."

"Decades ago, a man who called himself a 'magician' found the leader of Azure."

"He comes from the circus, a mysterious organization in the Xinhai District, and Tian Qing leads the way to fuse the flesh and blood of the Deep Sea Diver, as well as the experimental equipment, rituals, and even some of the experimental subjects. The two have been traded through secret channels over the years. What you get.”

"I don't know why the 'Magician' reached a deal with the 'Azure Leader'. I only inherited part of the memories of the Azure Leader, but the Azure Leader must have to pay some kind of 'chip' in this transaction." ”

"I just don't know whether Leader Tianqing has paid for this 'chip'. If not, the 'magician' as the party to the transaction will probably not give up."

"Your last stop with the leader of Tianqing has been seen by many people on Tianqing Island and cannot be concealed. By then, the 'Magician' will most likely come to find you."

"Mr. Zifeng, if you encounter people from the 'circus', especially 'magicians' when you sail on the sea in the future, please be extremely careful."

"In the remaining memory of Leader Tianqing, he is very afraid of this 'magician'. He is probably also a legendary professional!"

"And there must be something wrong with an organization that can provide such evil rituals!"

Durand's words made Ryan frown.

"The circus...it's it again..."

This is already the second time Ryan has encountered an incident related to the "circus".

In the past on the Whirlpool Islands, Caius, the owner of the Seagull Tavern who died at the hands of the Blood Witch, was a member of the "Circus"!

The Blood Witch's act of sacrificing creatures and monsters on the Whirlpool Islands also seems to have the shadow of a "circus" behind it.

And now, the "magician" of the "circus" actually has a deal with the leader of Tianqing...

"call……"

After letting out a breath, Ryan's eyes became sharp.

Sooner or later, he would have to settle this account with the "circus", but right now, he didn't have the time to deal with the "circus".

But if the "magician" doesn't have the foresight to come over, then Ryan won't mind and collect some "interest" before liquidating the "circus"...
