Chapter 172 - 172: Transcendent Speed, Bullet Time! (2)
Levi ignored him and quietly waited for the Earl of Silver Mountain’s reply.
“Sure. If you can capture the evil spirit alive, as long as the conditions are not too excessive, I can agree,” he responded.
Then, the Earl of Silver Mountain invited Levi and the others to the meeting hall.
“Everyone, according to the information I received from the church, this evil spirit is the Soulstealing Nun. This kind of evil spirit was relatively strong among the dangerous levels. The Soulstealing Nun could absorb the souls of people. For example, if the soul was strong enough, a grand knight could resist it for some time.
“If it were a mortal or an ordinary knight, their soul would be taken away instantly, and they would die!
“The Soulstealing Nun’s killing cycle is a week, and its targets are all male Imights. From the information I’ve received, the Soulstealing Nun likes to possess women, especially the church nuns. Therefore, when looking for this monster, you can try to find a breakthrough through the church.
“The last time the Soulstealing Nun killed someone was three days ago, and the location was in an old noble’s house east of the city. Therefore, I guessed that the next time she would appear would be four days later.
“As for the rest, if anyone had any questions, they could ask them anytime.” The Earl of Silver Mountain looked at everyone.
Seeing no one had questions, the Earl of Silver Mountain finally said, “I wish you all success.”
After that, everyone dispersed and prepared to get rid of the spirit. Levi had helped to remove the spirit because the Earl of Silver Mountain had something he wanted.
The four excellent breathing techniques and the perfect Red Lotus Breathing Technique!
Levi had been coveting it for a long time.
The current him was much stronger than before.
Level 9 Black Snake, with the Special Effect Black Scale protecting his body, the Seal of Dragon Might, Remnant Sound of Gold, and other effective methods against evil spirits.
He had everything.
A dangerous level of evil spirit should not be a problem.
During this period, Levi also inquired about the official classification of evil spirits through the Shining Tavern.
Restricted Grade, Dangerous Grade, Calamity Grade.
The restricted ones were like the chained evil spirit. They were fragile. If a grand knight was prepared, they could deal with them.
The dangerous level included Naiad. Ordinary grand knights were no match for her, but they could still escape if lucky.
Above that was the most dangerous type, the Calamity Grade evil spirits!
The nameless evil spirit suspected of having killed the White Horse knight and the old king was a Calamity Grade evil spirit, which was terrifying.
However, Levi felt he could still fight even if it were a Calamity Grade.
After all, he had his actual trump card, the Seal of Dragon Might.
After comprehensively analyzing his strength, Levi felt that killing or even capturing this evil spirit alive would not be a problem.
“The evil spirit will appear in four days.”
“He likes to possess women and only kills men. He also likes to attack the strong.”
“There are only so many experts in Icewind City. They are the Earl of Silver
Mountain, the grand knight who also accepted the spirit-removing mission, and me. Other than that, there might be some hidden grand and some knights.”
“The Earl of Silver Mountain has already been attacked once. The probability of the evil spirit failing to attack and then looking for the Earl of Silver Mountain is not high. Therefore, the Earl of Silver Mountain has not been attacked a second time after such a long time.”
“So, the one most likely to be attacked is me or another grand knight. Let’s see who the evil spirit is looking for.”
Levi did not intend to take the initiative to look for the evil spirit.
He found a hotel and stayed there.
Magic Shark and Demon Mountain protected him.
Levi entered a state of cultivation.
The Siren Breathing Technique was about to reach level 8.
If he could upgrade the Siren Breathing Technique before the evil spirit appeared, his strength would increase by another story, and he would be more at ease when facing the evil spirit.
At the same time, the others began to search for evil spirits in the city.
The Earl of Silver Mountain sat there with a bitter expression, looking into the distance.
His original intention was to recruit some real experts to remove the spirit.
Unfortunately, from the looks of it, it still failed.
Those people who accepted the commission seemed to be inferior to him.
They had no chance if he was not a match for the evil spirit.
The Earl of Silver Mountain did not have much hope.
Even the vice-captain of the Seven Holy Knights of the World, the Black Submerged Knight, was not a match for the evil spirit. This evil spirit was probably close to the Calamity Grade.
The Earl of Silver Mountain prayed, “Dear Heavenly Father, I hope a miracle will happen.”
Three days later, in the small hotel, the Siren Seed in Levi’s chest suddenly started dancing wildly, just like the legendary North Sea Kraken.
Levi opened his eyes.
“Siren Seed. Level 8.”
Levi was delighted.
He felt the energy in his body, making his body even lighter and more explosive.
