At this moment, a red-robed cardinal spoke with a grave expression, “Didn’t anyone notice the problem?”

“How could an ordinary pharmacist escape the assassination of God’s Punishment Squad time and time again?”

“Can you still find all the information about that pharmacist?”

Dennis was extremely nervous, “There’s a portrait of him here.”

“There are detailed records of him here. When he comes to Rose City, and everything about him.”

The red-robed bishop shook his head, but he sized up Dennis Snow with a strange look.

At this moment, a holy light descended and landed on Dennis.

Everyone was shocked, but they soon realized Dennis didn’t show any signs of surprise or abnormality.

“Phew, it seems like there’s nothing wrong with the Holy Priest. Then what happened?”

Dennis was still holding the files, “I once got some information about the theft of the underground warehouse in Rose City from the Castellan’s mansion.”

“Some information is not recorded. Rose City once had a group of city guards who disappeared near this warehouse.”

“And these God’s Punishment Squads died not far from that warehouse.”

Everyone’s eyes lit up, “Let’s go and take a look at that warehouse.”

Looking at the people who were led into the basement, Dennis had a ferocious look on her face.

She did not expect these people to find out about her so quickly.

According to the instructions left behind by Master, if anything unusual was discovered, the location of the underground warehouse was to be exposed immediately and they would be lured in at the same time.

“Dennis, follow me.”

Everyone called out to Dennis behind them.

A cat girl appeared behind Dennis.

“Miss Dennis, let’s go.”

Dennis nodded with a serious expression. She couldn’t do many things without the title of the Sage Healer.

Although she knew it was very likely her Master’s plan would be ruined, she knew that since everyone had already suspected her, she would be exposed sooner or later.

“Take me away.”

The shadow on the cat girl’s body flickered, and soon the two of them disappeared into the shadows.

The group of red-robed cardinals had ugly expressions on their faces. They wanted to go up again and stop Dennis.

However, they were soon drowned by a large number of dark puppets. These puppets were extremely difficult to deal with and could only be destroyed by force.

The Holy Light did not cause much damage to them.

“Damn it, who is it? To be able to control Sage Dennis, this is definitely not normal.”

Many of the red-robed bishops were traumatized.

Under the cover of the cat girl, the two of them arrived at the Pharmacists Guild. Dennis went straight to the warehouse and began to frantically search for precious herbs.

“Quick, quick, quick. We don’t have much time. There are many precious medicinal herbs here that Master needs. After today, it will be a little difficult to get more.”

No one had expected the God’s Punishment Squad to suddenly die.

In fact, this was not completely without warning.

The situation of the God’s Punishment Squad was the same as the previous City Guards. They were actually already dead, but their bodies had been turned into puppets.

A portion of their soul remained.

Under such circumstances, it was very difficult to live like a normal person.

After Chen Deng left Rose City, his control over the puppets weakened significantly. Naturally, when these puppets reached the end of their lives, they would suddenly die.

This was also the reason why Chen Deng did not use a high-level puppet to refine it. It was not that he did not want to, but that was the only thing he could do with his current strength.

After a round of wanton plundering, the two of them rushed out of the Pharmacists Guild and quickly left Rose City. It was obvious that it was unrealistic to open a potion shop. They could only wait for the future.

The most important thing now was to find Chen Deng.

Unfortunately, Chen Deng had no idea what was going on, and they couldn’t contact each other.

…

In the capital of the kingdom.

“The Holy Priest Bishop, Sage Healer Dennis, betrayed us and escaped Rose City? Why does it sound so unreal?”

“How could a sage betray us for no reason?”

“Don’t issue the arrest warrant yet. Investigate the reason for this. I don’t want to become a King who persecutes heroes.”

The king rubbed his brows helplessly. She had only been a Sage for a short period of time. What had happened?

This matter had to be clarified. Otherwise, it would be unacceptable.

Soon, the King’s order was quickly transmitted to Rose City, the Royal Knights, and an elite team.

Aphex, a member of the Royal Knights, looked at them in surprise, “You are? The Shadow Guards under the Prince? Shadow Hunter?”

The person nodded silently. Then, he said in a hoarse voice, “Take me to the underground warehouse.”

“The black-haired Chen Deng who cultivates the Dark Magic Forbidden Art has already escaped. We suspect that everything was done by him.”

Aphex’s expression was solemn. After the incident, he had already taken over the underground warehouse.

There was extremely dense dark magic inside, as well as a considerable number of city guards’ corpses.

These corpses had been infected by dark magic, and ordinary people might go crazy if they approached them.

Therefore, this place had become a forbidden area.

Soon, the Shadow Hunters arrived at the underground warehouse.

One of them twitched his nose, “It’s dark magic. It has the smell of humans and a terrifying aura.”

“Ugh, something’s wrong. Get away from here.”

At this moment, the hunter suddenly trembled and spat out thick white foam from his mouth.

Everyone’s expression changed, and they quickly pulled him out of the underground warehouse.

After leaving the warehouse, the person’s condition improved a lot.

“I’m sorry, I’ve absorbed too much dark magic. However, this unknown magic power was very high level. It’s not simple.”

Everyone looked at them speechlessly. It was a very serious matter, but he made it seem like a joke.

Aphex frowned, “Then who is this person?”

The Shadow Hunter shook his head, “This is not something we can interfere with. Please sealed off this place for now. I have to go back and report to the Prince and His Majesty.”

His figure quickly disappeared into the shadows.

…

In the capital, the King looked at the prince behind him with a serious expression, “Are you sure? If this matter is true, then the impact will be too great.”

“If the Demon King were to rise again, the entire Norland Continent would probably be plunged into war again. ”

The Prince nodded with a solemn expression, “It’s the power of the Demon King. That’s absolutely right. My Shadow Hunter once assassinated the Demon King. Although he failed, he managed to feel some of the Demon King’s power.”

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door.

“I’ve checked the Shadow Hunter. The corruption isn’t serious. Your Majesty, it’s confirmed to be the aura of the Demon King. He has been revived, but his strength has definitely not recovered.”
