65: True Shadow, A-013!

【Fate Intertwined】

???

Lin Ye didn't understand.

But he was greatly shaken.

Transcending life and death, will one then see fate?

It was too metaphysical.

Lin Ye didn't really believe it.

At the same time,

Black Hell Reaper also recovered from Time Theft.

"Time ability?!"

"Who are you?"

"Among the Astra Empire's Saints, there is no one who has stepped into the domain of time."

Nolan was also on high alert at this moment, pondering,

"Time? Not even the Arcane Saint, Istar, has publicly stated that he can control time..."

Lin Ye carried the princess to the side.

But Isolde clung to him tightly, refusing to let go.

"Hey, we're about to fight," Lin Ye said.

No, no~

"I don't want to bother with them~" Isolde hid her head near Lin Ye's ear and said intimately, "The Shadow Group's bad guys can't be killed, and as for the Blue Moon Legion... after we go back, the Moon Shadow Kingdom will naturally punish them."

Can't be killed?

What Lin Ye cared about wasn't whether they could be killed or not, nor was it escorting the princess back, but the present moment.

The ancient arrowhead in his chest was vibrating faintly.

Inheritance Quest.

It's right here!

Lin Ye's expression darkened: "Anyone who dares to lay a hand on the princess must die!"

Wow?

Isolde's eyes sparkled like stars, and tears of emotion fell, plop, plop.

【Ding~】

【Moon Shadow Princess Isolde's favorability towards you has increased by 10,000 points!】

Huh?

This princess is too easily moved, isn't she?

It's 100 points at every turn!

And...

She was already above 10,000 points, and it can still increase?

Why?

Lin Ye himself was stunned.

He opened the interaction interface again; the favorability was 20,000, but the relationship hadn't changed, still Fate Intertwined.

This time,

When Lin Ye carried her down, she became much more obedient and was no longer clingy.

He pulled out the Wangyu Bow.

Elemental Burst Arrow!

Boom!

The four elements of wind, fire, ice, and lightning converged simultaneously, vibrated simultaneously, and blasted towards the Black Hell Reaper simultaneously.

"Flame Twister!"

The Black Hell Reaper's blade spun in his hand, driving the Hell Black Flame to rapidly rotate in front of him, forming a vortex of fiery current.

The next second,

As soon as the three Elemental Burst Arrows touched the dark Flame Twister, they were immediately carried away by the rotating force and then triggered explosions in mid-air.

Bang, bang, bang!

After the explosion,

The Flame Twister dissipated.

But the Black Hell Reaper was unharmed.

Such a situation

made Lin Ye slightly stunned.

A skill he had never seen, a situation he had never encountered.

But...

It should be that a blocking effect was triggered.

Hiss~

Blocking skills with skills.

This guy's strength seems a bit exaggerated.

"Black Hell Reaper Karl was once the Astra Empire's Blade Saint Sevi's favorite student, but after reaching three turns, he was unable to break through for a long time. In his eagerness for quick success, he was tempted by the whispers of Hell Demons and eventually completely fell.

"Later, he should have completed his fourth turn through forbidden arts and awakened the Hell Black Flame. Looking at his current strength, he's probably a tiny bit stronger than an average fourth-turn awakening, right?"

Fourth-turn Legend, Level 200, Peak Awakening!

Lin Ye secretly clicked his tongue.

This quest is truly hidden.

From the initial secret letter entry process, it was almost a point that players would never be able to reach under normal circumstances.

So,

this should be considered part of the eternal background story, right?

Players cannot change it.

Nor can they interfere.

If he hadn't happened to get the envelope, Princess Isolde would have died today, and it would have been a plot kill, probably the kind that couldn't be revived.

"Oh, right, be careful of that Hell Black Flame."

Isolde reminded him:

"Hell Black Flame possesses very strong magical suppression, and at the same time has physical damage attributes, and can cause true damage to the soul, so those killed by Hell Black Flame cannot be resurrected."

Huh?

Lin Ye was stunned for a moment: "Are you saying you guys can't revive, or all adventurers..."

"Of course, it's everyone, adventurers are people too~"

Isolde finished speaking and then added:

"Hmm... I should say, all living beings with souls cannot be resurrected from the Hell Black Flame, not even the undead in Hell. Because this is a very high-level Hell attribute, among many fallen ones, it's considered a very rare awakening power~"

Lin Ye clearly didn't mean that.

However,

the princess's answer was even more alarming.

He immediately sent a message to Bai Shuya.

"Can players killed by Hell Black Flame be resurrected?"

"What?"

Bai Shuya had never heard of the term and immediately asked back, "I haven't heard of Hell Black Flame. Are you having some problem?"

"Never mind, it's nothing. You go ahead and be busy."

Lin Ye didn't ask Avinia again.

Facing such a special ability, there was no need to hold onto aLuck mentality (lucky mentality).

At the same time,

Karl on the opposite side instantly went berserk after hearing it, his whole body roaring with black flames.

"Shut up!"

"You are not allowed to mention that name again, Karl is dead, dead~!!!"

"Now standing before you all,"

"is the Dark Demon Lord's only messenger in the human world, the soul reaper who walked out of Hell!"

Lin Ye was a little dizzy listening to him.

"Isn't he a Shadow Group assassin?"

Isolde nodded slightly: "Yes, but the Shadow Group is no longer an assassin organization naturally formed by exiled fugitives."

"Hmm, that's not quite right either."

"Currently, most of the Shadow Group that people outside encounter are still composed of scattered fugitives."

"But the one Karl is in, that's the real Shadow Group."

"Behind them... there's the shadow of a Hell Demon, which is that Dark Demon Lord."

"True Shadow!"

"Their organization is lurking within the general Shadow Group, it's very complex, with complex members, mysterious identities, and an unstable range of activities. Even I can't completely predict them all, and it's not entirely made up of dark fallen ones; there are also some very strange guys."

"Oh, right, the members of True Shadow are divided by strength and number."

"Karl's number, let me see..."

Saying that,

Isolde drew a card from her tarot deck.

【A-013】

Black Hell Reaper Karl

Former Astra Empire....

"Mm-hmm, it's out, it's A-013."

What?

Even the enraged Karl was startled awake by these few understated words.

"The actual composition of the Shadow Group, even I'm not that clear about it, and the numbering, something only used for internal communication, how do you know about it?"

Hmph?

Isolde made a face at him directly: "Want to know? Hehe, I won't tell you~"

Nolan, who had been silent, now felt his heart sink to the bottom.

"According to legend, every princess of the Moon Shadow Kingdom is a star from the heavens, an angel descended upon the human world."

"Heh~ such nonsense..."

"Even as a Moon Shadow Kingdom soldier, I never believed it."

Nolan's tone shifted, and a murderous intent appeared in his eyes.

"But today, I have no choice but to believe it!"

"Whether your talent is prophecy, I no longer want to know."

"I only know..."

"If you don't die today, all of us will probably die!!!"

Lin Ye finally saw some clues now.

This time, he had probably inserted himself into the eternal background story.

Princess Isolde, her talent was very special, even unbelievable.

Things she had never heard, seen, or come into contact with, and could not possibly know, she could get the answer by simply drawing a card.

How terrifying was this ability?

And...

Listening to her chattering and muttering to herself just now, it didn't seem like she was talking nonsense, but rather...

She actually calculated that he would come to do this quest and save her here?

Is it really that accurate?

Lin Ye also didn't believe in metaphysics, but this matter was indeed a bit mystical.

Never mind for now.

It could now be confirmed that Princess Isolde was the key to this quest, and even to the multiple forces involved in these two great nations.

If he could complete it,

he would definitely receive world-class rewards.

But the difficulty, it seemed, was also very exaggerated.

Karl.

From the inheritance of the Blade Saint, fully awakened, and fully fallen, mastering the Hell Black Flame that could obliterate souls, he was still only ranked with an A-013 number.

At the same time,

Nolan had already drawn the sword from his waist and slashed a magical crescent moon several tens of meters in diameter through the air, heading straight for Lin Ye.

"Go to hell, my Princess!!!"
