Necromancer: Divine-Level Summoning - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Thief

Boom!

The door to the stone hut suddenly opened, and an extremely powerful presence came out without any attempt to conceal itself.

Hurley, who had yet to touch the fruit, suddenly stopped.

At this moment, the three of them seemed to have been frozen by a 10,000 year blast of icy wind. They could not react at all and could only stand rooted to the ground.

“Run!”

Keaton let out a loud roar. In the next moment, he suppressed the fear in his heart and forcefully summoned the Abyss Snake from the alternate dimension.

“Come up quickly!”

Currently, Keaton could not care less. There was only one thing he needed to do, and that was to leave this place at all costs!

After jumping onto the head of the Abyss Snake, Keaton shouted at the stunned Sarmila,

“Why are you still standing there too? Are you waiting for that person to dismember your body into ten thousand pieces?!”

As he spoke, Keaton made the Abyss Snake lower its head. He stretched out his hand and grabbed onto the frozen Samira on the ground.

Peng!

The inertia of the Abyss Snake rising and charging caused her stomach to cave in.

After pulling Sarmila onto the back of the Abyss Snake, Keaton turned his attention to Hurley.

The Abyss Snake was also very intelligent. After sensing Keaton’s emotions, he gently flicked his tail and used the thinnest part at the end to gently pick up Hurley, who was standing on the ground in a daze, onto its back.

After doing all this, Keaton stared at the cyan Elemental Spirit Tree not far away, his eyes filled with ruthlessness.

At this moment, they had already angered the supreme expert in the stone house, which caused the release of aura as a warning and to probe them.

Even if they didn’t obtain those Elemental Spirit Fruits today and didn’t cause any substantial damage to the Elemental Tree, that expert wouldn’t let them off either.

In for a penny, in for a pound!

Keaton made up his mind and silently activated his mana.

In the next moment, a black claw appeared on the cyan tree, gently plucking the three fruits.

For a heavenly treasure such as the Elemental Spirit Fruit, the effect of eating a second fruit would be greatly reduced compared to the first!

If he wanted to achieve the same effect of the first fruit, he would have to compensate by eating more Elemental Fruits.

However, there were only four Elemental Fruits on this Elemental Spirit Tree, which meant that the initial plan of replacing quality with quantity could not be performed. Thus, instead of picking all of them, it was better to leave some so that the expert would be forced to think about more potential losses while chasing after them!

All of this happened extremely quickly. After completing this series of actions, Keaton’s head was already decorated with beads of sweat.

Fortunately, after the upgrade, the Abyss Snake’s speed had reached the peak of Rank 4.

With the help of the Centaur Lady’s Berserk spell and the Abyss Snake’s own skill, Black Snake Frenzy, its speed would already exceed that of ordinary rank 5 creatures.

In just an instant, the Abyss Snake had already carried Keaton and company, rushing out over seventy meters.

However, the moment it moved, the spot where the few of them were originally standing was shaken by an extremely powerful chaotic aura, as if it was trying to collapse the space itself!

Under the impact of this extremely powerful chaotic aura, the Black Pool was also affected. The pitch-black water in the pool surged violently, and countless bubbles floated up from the bottom of the pool before exploding on the surface of the lake, bringing upon an increase in the concentration of chaotic aura.

Woosh!

A loud sound rang out from the stone house behind them!

After hearing this breathing, Keaton and the other two belatedly realized that the previous attack was not from the owner of the stone house. It was more like the person’s self-protection mechanism while they were meditating and defenseless.

Sure enough, accompanying this extremely long breath, the aura emanating from the stone house suddenly expanded several times!

“Rank…. Rank 7! This person definitely has the strength of a Grand Magister!”

Amazed, Samira sensed the strength of the aura coming from behind her, but she did not dare to turn back as fear occupied her heart!

Hurley’s expression was also extremely ugly. Right now, she was extremely regretful.

“If I had known that the person inside was actually so powerful, I wouldn’t have thought of stealing this Elemental Fruit. No matter how valuable this thing is or how outstanding its effects are, it can only be used if one remains alive!”

Unlike the two girls however, there was neither fear nor regret on Kedan’s face.

He had suspected earlier on that the aura at the beginning was only sending them a warning.

However, he still stole the Elemental Spirit Fruit that this powerful magus had guarded for a long time!

It was for no other reason than to form a foundation for himself, so he would be able to live safely in this world after a year when the effect of the disguise necklace ended!

“Bold thief! Give me the spiritual fruit you have seized!”

With a bang, a pale skinned demon rushed out of the stone house and chased after the Abyss Snake.

“Abyss Snake, use your full strength! Don’t conserve anything!”

Keaton frowned deeply, before sending out the order!

The speed of the Abyss Snake was indeed very fast, more than ten times faster than the speed of the three of them running at full speed. However, they were trying to escape the pursuit of a Rank 7 Grand Magister tier demon behind them!

Although the demons were not known for its speed, the difference of three whole ranks still allowed it to match the Abyss Snake!

Looking at Keaton’s tightly furrowed brows, a trace of guilt that could not be erased appeared in Hurley’s heart.

At this moment, Hurley was not aware that Kedan had already retrieved the Elemental Spiritual Fruits. She only thought that her foolish actions had angered the Rank 7 Demon in the stone house!

“I’m sorry!”

Hurley buried her head inside her chest, continuously apologizing to Keaton like a quail.

Keaton laughed bitterly in response. He only gently waved his hand, indicating that he was not that petty.

At the same time, he quietly activated the Dark Realm to enhance the escaping Abyss Snake.

Without the Ghouls and Skeleton Soldiers sharing the buff now, the Abyss Snake could enjoy the full power of the buff.

At this moment, the effect of the entire Dark Realm was applied to the Abyss Snake, allowing its speed to increase by 30%.

Seeing that the thieves were getting further and further away from him, the demon was furious.

With a furious roar, the Rank 7 demon suddenly transformed into a shadow, accelerating to its maximum speed!
