Chapter 308 - Chapter 308 Chapter 307 Bait and Fishing

Chapter 308: Chapter 307: Bait and Fishing Chapter 308: Chapter 307: Bait and Fishing Regarding Mu Konni’s petty schemes that couldn’t be brought to light, Suo Men was somewhat speechless and couldn’t be bothered to argue, waving his hand, “Since you’re afraid that I’ll monopolize the points for the task, then you handle these people.”

“Thank you.” Mu Konni said with a smile, looking at one of the three Black Robed Men who stepped forward, “Hey, what’s your name?”

“You don’t need to know.” The Black Robed Man who stepped forward said harshly, “Defeat me first before talking!”

“Are you sure you really want it this way?” Mu Konni continued smiling, her tone suddenly rising, a bit serious as she asked, “What if I want to know your name before defeating you? Tell me!”

The body of the Black Robed Man trembled slightly.

Spiritual Control Magic*First Circle Low Level*Bern’s Severe Scolding!

“Tell me! Tell me! Tell me!” Mu Konni demanded repeatedly, continuously casting spirit magic.

The body of the Black Robed Man shook violently, almost unable to endure, he said, “I… my name is… Henry.”

“Henry? Oh, good name,” Mu Konni nodded, then continued to press, “Then why are you here? Who is the person behind you?!”

“I am here because I wanted to find…” The Black Robed Man called Henry responded, which his companion noticed was a bit off.

Another Black Robed Man, who obviously had a higher status, intervened in time, “Henry, what are you doing!”

“I…” Henry struggled.

Mu Konni shouted, “Don’t listen to him, tell me the answer!”

Spiritual Control Magic*First Circle Low Level*Bern’s Punishment of Anger!

The body of the Black Robed Man named Henry shook tremendously, and he blurted out, “I came here because I wanted to find some books …”

At that moment, the lead Black Robed Man shouted: “Henry, shut your mouth!” As he spoke, he waved a hand towards Henry.

“Ga!”

The voice of the Black Robed Man named Henry abruptly stopped as if his throat had been grabbed. Then, like a robot running out of energy, he fell to the ground with a “thud.”

“Oh!” Mu Konni raised her eyebrows, looking at the Black Robed Man who had intervened, “Not bad, you have the heart to kill your subordinate to prevent information leakage.”

“But no worries.” Mu Konni blinked, her long eyelashes trembling as she looked at the Black Robed Man who had intervened and said in a magnetic male voice, “I can get the answer from you just the same.”

“Really? I’m afraid it won’t be that easy.”

“Let’s try and see.”

“Then try we will!”

“Alright, I’ll indulge you.” Mu Konni laughed exaggeratedly, waving her hand, releasing a spell, a strong spirit shock spread, attacking the two remaining Black Robed Men.

Space seemed to warp slightly, ghostly wails and wolf howls sounded around, and the pitch-black night grew even gloomier, as if the netherworld had descended.

Spiritual Attack Magic*One Ring Middle Circle*Wailing of the Dead!

With this attack launched, one Black Robed Man’s body jerked violently, going limp and falling, following the footsteps of his companion.

The lead Black Robed Man withstood it but also got injured, his body wobbling unsteadily, “Puh” he spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Struggling to stand firm, the Black Robed Man glanced at his fallen companion beside him, cursing, “Damn it!”

“Indeed he deserved to die, so he did,” Mu Konni whispered.

“I was talking about you deserving to die!”

“Ha, is that so?” Mu Konni said. “But although I deserve to die, you can’t kill me.”

“You!” The leading Black Robed Man was provoked. With a cry, he extended both hands from his robe; five rings on his fingers burst into bright light, conjuring an illusion behind him. It was a coiled giant python, wide-mouthed, its sharp teeth exposed as it lunged swiftly at Mu Konni and bit down.

“Ssssss–”

The distinct hiss of the python echoed through the courtyard, and the illusion seemed to become reality.

Spiritual Attack Magic*First Circle Middle Stage*Mad Python Swallow!

Mu Konni saw the attack, curled her lips upward, “Tsk, you have some tricks, but that’s it. You’d better just die obediently!”

As the python illusion bit at Mu Konni, she stepped back; at the same time, a pendant hanging on her chest lit up, conjuring an even larger illusion behind her–a gigantic elephant.

The elephant charged forward, knocking over the python, crushing it, and then harshly slamming into the Black Robed Man’s body, penetrating it.

The man’s body stiffened, his eyes bulged, and he struggled to look down at his stomach.

His stomach was undamaged, but his face displayed sheer terror, as if encountering the most dreadful thing–one might compare to drowning a newborn baby in a pond without any chance to struggle.

This! This! This!

The Black Robed Man opened his mouth wide, a meaningless moan coming from deep within his throat, as if crushed by fear. He trembled like chaff in the wind and fell straight down to the ground with a “thud,” lifeless.

Spiritual Attack Magic*First Circle High Order*Horror Giant Elephant!

“Tap, tap, tap…”

Mu Konni stepped over to the body of the Black Robed Man, kicked it with her foot, and turned to Suo Men, “He’s dead. It seems his strength was even less than I anticipated, just a first rank low-level wizard barely capable of casting a first circle middle stage spell. Had I known, I should have held back. Now he’s dead, and we can’t get anything out of him.”

“No matter,” Suo Men said. “From their appearance, they probably had some sort of silencing spell in their bodies–once we ask certain key things, it would activate and kill them. Not being able to ask doesn’t make much difference.

After all, these people clearly came for the books secretly related to the Black Spirit King. Most likely they’re part of some group secretly growing in the shadows. Let them flounder a few more days; as long as they don’t disrupt the grand scheme. Should they dare to interfere with the organization’s plans, people will naturally crush them like bugs when the time comes.”

“Uh…”

“Let’s go,” Suo Men said, walking towards the door.

Mu Konni followed, “So we’re really leaving this time?”

“What else?” Suo Men’s voice came from outside the door. “Being lucky enough to catch a fish once, can we really expect to catch a second immediately? We really are leaving, need to rush for the next mission.”

“Alright then…”

“Tap, tap, tap…” The sound of footsteps gradually faded, and the courtyard grew quiet.

Richard remained motionless in his hiding spot in the corner, keeping his Concealing Breath Skill, and waited a long time to make sure Suo Men and Mu Konni had truly left before he prepared to step out.

But as he took his first step, before his foot touched down, his gaze swept the courtyard and noticed the three Black Robed Man corpses, suddenly a thought struck him: “Fishing? Bait?”

Richard grew cautious and quickly withdrew his advancing foot.

“Whoosh, whoosh!”

Suddenly, a strong wind swept through the courtyard, and Suo Men and Mu Konni returned, reappearing in the middle of the courtyard.
