Chapter 404.

Chapter 404 Found.

Haywood touched his lips more quickly, the lips that still had blood color switching back and forth between pale and dark red.

Suddenly, Haywood spoke, “I want the formula.”

“Shuffle along.” Saul smiled.

Haywood immediately said, “I can offer more in exchange.”

Saul put his hands down and retracted them inside his cloak, “Then we’ll talk about the cost of the formula another time. Anyway, potion for Heidi, okay?”

Haywood cupped his jaw as if he was going to crush it.

“I’ll take the potion, but you can’t have Heidi.” Haywood shook a …… striped bass out of his sleeve!
“I don’t care what you’re trying to get into the mezzanine to find, there’s no way I’m letting Heidi risk it. And I think it’s best to go ahead in person if you’re looking for something.”

Saul frowned, “But it can only be accessed there through a spirit or a cursed being like Heidi.”

“Yes. A spirit body will be burned intensely if it enters there. But if you hide inside this fish, you can avoid the burn of sight for a short time. Of course it’s still important to stay hidden, and if you’re being chased you’ll still be in danger and need to leave immediately.”

After saying that, Haywood held his chin again and smiled at Saul, “Spirit body movement is very energy consuming, if you are hungry inside, you can eat part of the fish, it’s very delicious.”

Haywood had just uttered these words when the banded fish in his hand suddenly also twisted its body and raised its head, opening its large, sharp mouth at Saul.

“You can eat me when you’re hungry, I’m very tasty.”

It wasn’t known if it was a coincidence, or if Heywood’s words had activated some kind of switch.

Not only was the fish in Haywood’s hand talking, but a dozen or so white mushrooms with long, thin legs suddenly ran past behind him “da da da da da da”.

The first storehouse, which was blocked by Haywood’s tall figure, made a shrieking sound.

It was as if the world behind him suddenly came to life.

Saul took the scallop and picked it up and looked at it, left and right, it was just the most ordinary scallop.

Except it could talk and grossly delicious meat.

One of Saul’s fingers gradually became transparent, and then went a little deeper inside the scallop.

While realizing that Haywood wouldn’t lie about such things, he still had to figure out how the fish worked and if there were any hidden dangers inside first.

Somewhat to Saul’s surprise, not only could this fish store spirit bodies, but it also had a large internal space and a stable spatial structure.

Heywood could see Saul’s surprise and couldn’t help but explain with some pride.

“Although I can’t do out-of-body souls myself, I am very interested in all these things. Including the information about the Nightmare Butterfly that I gave you earlier, it is all the result of my many years of collecting and deducing experiments.”

Saul examined it a few times and had to raise his evaluation of Haywood once again.

There really wasn’t a simple person who could be looked upon by Golza.

Heywood, on the contrary, did not examine the potion given by Saul face to face, preparing to go back and analyze it properly.

If he could unravel the formula of the potion in it, then he would have made a fortune.

Saul naturally wasn’t worried, there was still his soul power in it as a stirring rod.

Even he didn’t have the formula, how could it be solved by Heywood?
The two completed the deal and each took their harvest back.

Returning to the second storehouse, Saul drew a protective spell formation on the ground, and also had Algae guard the side of his body.

Saul then didn’t delay, and after confirming with his diary one last time about the trip, his soul left his body and detached himself from it.

After Saul entered his spirit body, the banded fish that was lying quietly by his right hand suddenly floated in the air and swam around as if it was in the water.

Saul first changed his appearance back to that of his body so that he wouldn’t find a living person and the other person wouldn’t recognize him.

From the information he got from the Mouth Grievance, the living person hiding in the candle pipe was probably Byron.

The Hokage didn’t recognize his original appearance.

Saul stretched out his arm, his spirit arm contorting wildly and extending more than two meters, and pulled back the banded fish that had peddled into the distance as soon as he could. Saul then sighed breathlessly, and his entire spirit burrowed into the banded fish!

Only to see the fish, which was swimming around, suddenly dive headfirst under the floor as if it had a clear goal.

The banded fish, which could clearly be touched by a person’s hand, had easily traveled through the sturdy wall and entered a space full of eyes.

Unlike Sol’s last time when he was burned as soon as he entered, this time his spirit body was hiding inside the bandfish.

Then he smelled the aroma of grilled fish.

Although he couldn’t see it, Saul vaguely felt that the layer of fish skin he was draped in was slowly turning yellow and carbonized.

But it was definitely not as badly damaged as when his spirit body was facing those eyes directly.

“Now it’s time to find the living people hiding here.”

Saul poked his spiritual energy out, searching the surrounding area while keeping an eye out for any changes in those eyes outside.

The overall silver-colored, slightly charred skin of the banded fish wandered around in a dim light, the eyes growing on either side of its head constantly turning back and forth and up and down.

Though it couldn’t see anything at all.

The countless pairs of eyes around it were half-open and half-closed, like extremely sleepy people caught in a kind of chaos.

Those eyes paid no attention to the banded fish below, and seemed to have no interest in it at all.

Occasionally, when an eye sensed the spiritual fluctuations emanating from the banded fish, it immediately woke up three times and rotated its pupils. But when it realized that it was nothing more than a fish swimming around, it immediately lost interest again.

There was no sense of the flow of time here, and Saul could only rely on himself to count silently in his mind to determine roughly how much time had passed.

There was no mental fluctuation in the distance, so Saul could only wander aimlessly through the mezzanine.

After about half an hour or so, the spiritual power that Saul had put out for an unknown number of times finally sensed a peculiar existence.

From the feedback fluctuations to probe its outline, it seemed to be a …… small child with three heads.

But Saul also did feel the fluctuations of a living person from him.

He immediately commanded the banded fish to swim over. It came to the side of that person.

When he did, Saul felt even more clearly that the man was indeed abnormal in appearance.

The surface of his body was like swollen bread, and although the outline was that of a human child, no exterior organs such as eyes and mouth could actually be found.

It was like a person with a layer of foam coated on the outside of his body.

Saul did not feel the familiar fluctuation of spiritual energy on this foam.

He frowned darkly, “Could it be that this person is not Senior Byron?”

He commanded the swimming fish to circle around the person again, and the latter did not respond, like a mass of dead matter that could still breathe.

“If this person really isn’t Senior, then I’m a bit of a loser in this exchange.” There was some anxiety in Saul’s heart, if he couldn’t find the person again this time, the hope that he would be able to find the person would be very low even if he was still able to do the Dreamland Parade.

After all, the longer a spirit was missing, the lower the hope of finding it.

“Ugh.” Sol couldn’t help but sigh.

Unexpectedly, after this sound, the small mass of black people actually moved a bit, and at roughly the place of the neck, a small opening split open, revealing the white and tender new flesh underneath.

“Sol?”

Hearing this unfamiliar voice, but familiar tone, the banded fish swelled throughout.

“Senior Byron, is that you?” Saul immediately followed that crack and transmitted his words through his spiritual power.

“It’s me …… Why are you in such a dangerous place?” Byron’s voice contained both confusion and surprise.
