Chapter 266.

Chapter 266: Every Mind Has Its Own Thoughts

The Aunt Jenny in front of her had been completely immersed in the pain and excitement of the past.

“That fire ……” Saul realized with a sudden realization.

It turned out that the Ground Sound Fruit field was set on fire by Aunt Jenny.

I’m afraid that even the people of the town didn’t expect that this woman who had been zealously defending the tradition of the Holy Maiden’s sacrifice of the Holy Fruit was the one who hated the Grinding Sound Fruit the most.

Or rather, she hated the grinding fruit, and hated the residents of this town even more.

Right now, Aunt Jenny’s spiritual consciousness had completely collapsed and was showing signs of contamination.

Perhaps it was because being awake was the most agonizing.

She was still laughing, following which her entire head became her mouth.

If the soul energy was strong enough, Aunt Jenny would have turned into an evil spirit at this point.

Unfortunately, she was just an ordinary person, and no matter whether she was alive or dead, what awaited her was only the collapse of her spiritual body into crumbs.

Saul stood up, and his right hand, which was originally in the shape of a needle, suddenly flung out, and an octopus tentacle shot out, fiercely smacking Jenny’s soul before absorbing it cleanly like sucking on jelly.

At the same time, a bit of Jenny’s evil thoughts appeared in Saul’s spiritual body.

The diary moved stupidly, as if it wanted to absorb this bit of evil thought cleanly. But Saul slightly shook his head and stopped the diary’s “purification”.

“I don’t think you’re willing to disappear just like that, so why don’t you follow me around. See how this apparently cozy, but actually cold town ends up.”

Saul once again jumped onto the roof of the next street, this time looking for the most ornate houses in the town while observing if there were any other spirits around.

Just then, however, he suddenly heard the sound of a rushing tide again.

The sound was closer, as if it was flowing within a hundred meters of him.

But when he looked around the entire town was clean, not a bit of red color or water flowing.

Although there was nothing to see, although the sound of the tide quickly disappeared again, but Saul because of this closer and closer to the sound of the water gradually tensed up.

“I have to speed up. I can’t stay any longer if I meet a spirit that doesn’t know where the sorcerer’s apprentice lives.”

He skipped a few blocks to the busiest street in town.

Just now, while observing from the rooftops, he realized that the houses here were the grandest and most ornate in the town.

However there were also three or four such buildings, and without any other clues, Saul might need to find them one by one.

That would be too much of a waste of time.

Just then, he suddenly saw a man wandering in the street.

The armor and clothes that the man wore were not quite the same style as those of the Khema Duchy territory and the Sorcerer’s Tower Attachment **folk, and seemed to have come from farther away.

Moreover, he was just an ordinary person who could lose his life at any time in this place filled with curses.

He was seen carefully and deliberately avoiding all the houses, trying not to go near those doors and windows, and carefully walking in the very center of the street.

As he moved shivering, he looked around warily.

It looked like even though he wasn’t crazy, he wasn’t far from collapsing.

The most crucial …… thing is that he is actually a living person!
“Sure enough there are others who have also entered this town. Is that row of grave squares outside actually an aid to the cursed ritual, or is it a fishing lure?”

After what he had just experienced, Saul thought that the person behind the scenes didn’t just want to turn the entire town into a cursed place, he probably had a more far-reaching purpose, as well as an even greedier appetite.

Sol recalled the odd look on Mochi Mochi’s face when he entered the town. Perhaps the senior who had only met him once wasn’t telling him the truth.

Either he was the one behind the curtain, or he had something else in mind after seeing this cursed place.

Saul’s arm dropped and a golden ancient coin slid into his palm. He scrutinized the ancient coin, which featured the smiling face of a beauty on both sides, and moved his fingers, letting it tumble and spin in his fingertips.

However, he did not contact Mochi Mochi through this ancient coin, but put it away again.

Just at this effort, the man walking in the center of the street suddenly shouted and turned around. It looked like there were ten hungry wolves chasing after him.

But when Saul looked in the direction of his fear, he saw nothing.

But a few breaths later, a spiteful spirit wearing half armor and wielding a scimitar turned the corner at the end of the street and walked over.

“Is this …… Captain Jeff?” Saul turned his head again to look at the fleeing stranger, “What did he see that he was able to detect Jeff’s presence ahead of time? Or has the town become something else in the eyes of the common man?”

That was normal too.

Ordinary people’s mental bodies weren’t as powerful as a wizard’s, nor did they have magic to protect them, so it was easy to have horrible hallucinations with just a small amount of radiation.

Not to mention that this was still a cursed town.

Saul didn’t run away, he jumped directly in front of Captain Jeff, “Captain Jeff, hello.”

“What are you?” Captain Jeff looked much more normal than Aunt Jenny.

“I am a wandering sorcerer passing through this place, I want you to take me to see the sorcerer lord of your place.”

Saul didn’t know what kind of illusion the Captain Jeff in front of him was in, and directly made up a reason for him to take himself to the sorcerer’s residence.

“No, I’m on patrol.”

Who knew that this Captain Jeff who had turned into a resentful spirit had gotten hard and refused Saul.

“If you don’t lead the way, I’ll kill you.” Saul said coldly.

“I’m on patrol, please don’t stop me from maintaining the safety of the town.” Jeff replied with a straight face, then surprisingly tried to go around Saul and continue on his way.

“Well, I take back what I just thought, there can’t be any normal people in these grunts.” Saul shook his head and smiled to himself.

“Hey!” He called out to Jeff.

Luckily Jeff had the instinct to turn around and react.

In the next second, a huge translucent hand suddenly slapped hard at a house next to the street.

Under the huge kinetic impact of the mage’s hand, a corner of that house was instantly shattered.

“If you don’t take me there, I’ll destroy the town you’re trying to protect.”

Although it was really difficult to destroy a town with Sol’s ability. But it didn’t stop him from bragging in front of a delirious, disgruntled spirit.

“Fine.” The dutiful resentful spirit was shocked by Saul’s bluntness and froze for a moment as he looked at those house fragments before finally compromising, “You come with me.”

Then the next second, Jeff led Saul into that big luxurious house that he had just destroyed a corner of.

Saul: ……

“The Lord Wizards are inside. If you need anything, just go in and find them.”

“Do they keep important things in here?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, I’m leaving. I’m busy and need to be responsible for the safety of the town.” With that Jeff turned away and continued patrolling the streets.

“Captain Jeff.” Saul said to his back, “Is it this town you’re protecting, or the town’s townspeople?”

Jeff’s figure paused, but quickly continued on his way.

Saul laughed softly and walked deeper into the houses.

After Saul entered the gorgeous big house, the door of the big house was suddenly gently closed by an invisible hand, and then a stream of bright red liquid flowed out from the crack in the corner of the house that had been cracked by Saul’s slap.

The liquid became more and more, converging into a shallow puddle, and gradually deepened into a pool of water.

The sound of waves lapping against rocks rang out.

“Wow…… Wow……”
