…

A hint of delight emerged on Su Lu’s face as he watched the numbers continuously popping up in his attribute column.

“No wonder I’ve been keeping tabs on Cheng Feng and his crew for so long, finally, a big windfall has arrived.”

At this moment, he had donned a black cloak and a bird-beak-shaped mask on his face, as if he was once again in the Main World, returning to being the wanted ‘Death Crow’.

Standing in the open wilderness, looking at the bustling hospital, a smile involuntarily broadened on his face.

The Psychic Apprentice, in reality, only has the power of Necromancy, but it can command spiritual bodies summoned through ‘Necromancy’ to create various effects, even directly harnessing their abilities for combat!

And the area-wide ‘Curse of Death’ that he used just now, was a piece of Mysterious Study knowledge he acquired from Lady Moon’s teachings.

Using it to harvest the minions, undoubtedly yielded high effectiveness.

“More than a dozen second-order occupational people, as it stands now, should be a massive force within the Ancient God’s Eye right? This time it really was a costly spend.”

Su Lu gradually approached the Cybernet division: “I wonder how far I need to go before I can lure over Dr. Suvit.”

Rather than going abroad to search for a needle in a haystack, it was evidently more convenient to have others actively seek him out.

“Should I aim for God’s Ear next?”

…

Above the rooftop, the expression of an elder keeping tabs on the situation changed abruptly: “Something’s happened in the prison district… a highly-mysterious entity has made a move, Herkdo and the others have all been wiped out…”

“Sir, what have you heard?”

A guard with tentacles growing on his face immediately inquired vigilantly.

“I’ve heard… the footsteps from the Spirit World!”

The ‘God’s Ear’ old man shut his turbid eyes, seemingly listening to everything around him: “Somebody is utilizing the strength of spiritual bodies to attack us! It must be people from the Summer country, or more likely, from the top tier of Cybernet!”

Spirit World!

This is a realm that only powers that have obtained the ‘Ancient God’s Mystery Treasure’ can vaguely interact with, possibly the place where the truth of the world lies.

Unfortunately, the Ancient God’s Eye’s research on the Spirit World was still too rudimentary, only being able to channel some cursed power, create undead beasts, and see spiritual creatures, or hear the voices of the spirit world – and this is only possible for a select few.

The so-called ‘God’s Ear’! Within this organization, it represents a group of people who can hear the voices of the Spirit World.

Da-da!

Da-da!

At this moment, within the elder man’s hearing, a set of footsteps was steadily growing closer.

Its stride was firm, carrying madness and tumult, yet bearing a shade of deathly moonlight.

“Are you… the higher-ups of the Ancient God’s Eye?”

Su Lu emerged from the shadows, gazing at this old man.

“The grand Existence of the Spirit World, just hearing your footsteps makes me lose any thoughts of resistance… Having a fight with such an existence, perhaps we could all die in the next second…”

the elderly man murmured.

“You’re too modest…” Su Lu chuckled: “Being able to perceive the Spirit World indicates you possess not only a talent, but also sufficient effort, and a bit of luck…perhaps, that bit of luck is the most crucial.”

He clearly understood the difficulty of deciphering his own picture.

One could say, the fact that the Ancient God’s Eye was able to obtain a minor technique from the picture was already a slight surprise to Su Lu.

Given enough time, they might not be incapable of delving into the second, or even the third layer of the Spirit World, or ultimately locate the Body of the Ancient God.

When studying Mysterious Study, rational thinking is not extremely vital, what’s truly crucial is ‘Luck’ itself!

Otherwise, perhaps one might see something they shouldn’t see or hear something they shouldn’t hear in the next second and then die immediately or turn into a monster.

“Also… I don’t like being interrupted while speaking.”

Su Lu subtly pointed behind him.

The Tree Root Man, who was originally sneaking up on him, immediately stopped in his tracks.

But God’s Ear heard more!

He heard the gates of the Spirit World open, and a myriad of strange and powerful spiritual beings crawled out.

They grabbed the shoulders of the man with tree roots for legs, moving their mouths, emitting various strange roars.

The ‘interval’ between the Spirit World and the Material Realm was broken, and it seemed as if an invisible door had been added to the void.

“No…”

A white man, whose lower body was completely made of tree roots, roared violently, trying to grab Su Lu’s sleeve with his right hand.

But it was useless!

A powerful suction force acted directly on him, causing him to let out a reluctant roar, slowly retreating, pulled back behind the door by many spiritual bodies.

Clang!

The void doorway was completely closed, and there was no trace of the white man’s breath in this place.

“Did Jarvis just die? Right in front of me?”

A grotesque guard with an octopus head muttered, looking at Su Lu, “It seems that you are destined to be our enemy with the Eye of the Ancient God.”

“Not an enemy, you are not qualified yet.”

Su Lu smiled, his palm pressing on the void, “Spirit Communication Skill!”

Dimensional runes manifested directly, the void broke open, revealing a pitch-black hole.

Several crows flew out from it, “Great master…the Crow Legion reports to you!”

Summoning one’s minions to assist in battle through the Spirit Communication Skill was also a good technique.

“I’ll leave him to you.”

Su Lu pointed at the octopus head, then ignored him and came to the old man with God’s Ear.

“Yes, great master.”

Ada and others cheered joyfully.

They were not ordinary mutated beings, but extraordinary occupational persons. Apart from their own mutations, they also had professions, which gave them extraordinary combat capabilities.

Plus, with their recent improvements in the wilderness, a few of them could easily hold back a Hand or a Foot of God.

“Since you fear me so much, why not simply surrender?”

Su Lu looked at God’s Ear and chuckled lightly.

“I’m sorry… although you far surpass us in your research into the Spirit World, we, the Head of God, will never surrender…”

The old man lowered his head, tilted his ear: “This is the profession I have understood from the photo of the Ancient God—the Listener, who can hear sounds that ordinary people can’t, and understand the mysteries of this world deeper… of course, that includes everything about you, including your weaknesses.”

“…”

Su Lu was speechless.

Was this old man silly? The existence of the great being should not be probed. This is common sense in the metaphysics of the Main World!

And he even actively developed a profession to enhance his spiritual listening. Did he want to court death?

If I summon my true body now, and then transmit the ‘information’ of my true body to this old man, what would happen to him? Would he lose control on the spot due to the curse of the Ancient God?

Su Lu thought for a moment, and decided to let him go.

After all, he was planning to use God’s Ear to attract Su Weite of the Eye of the Ancient God. It could not be achieved if a person is dead. If I scared the opposite side, it would be bad if they never showed up in the future.

He chuckled lightly and suddenly spoke, “Arya…Mossad…”

Using the Mysterious Language, he sent the highly mysterious information related to this world directly to the old man.

On usual days, it might make the other party ecstatic.

But too much information could easily make one ‘explode’!

“Ah!”

The next moment, God’s Ear let out a scream, countless writhing blue veins appeared around his ears, he lay on the ground rolling, and blood flowed from his earholes.

It was a backlash from hearing what should not have been heard!
