Chapter 514: Chapter 229: Evil Power Sorcery Formation (Two-in-One Big Chapter) _3

This…. includes life and death!

“Baron Rein, we actually didn’t need to reach this point today. For instance, if you sign the contract now and swear your allegiance to the Church of the Black Flame, I think….” As the laughter gradually subsided, the older noble continued.

At this moment, Alonso’s butler Michel hurried in and said to Baron Alonso, who was watching with great interest, “My lord, Count Habs’s messenger is outside waiting for you, saying that the Earl has an urgent matter to discuss with you.”

Upon hearing this, Alonso was taken aback.

“My father is looking for me?”

Just thinking about his father’s imposing face made him shiver all over.

However, he quickly muttered, “It’s not going to be another scolding, is it?”

Alonso didn’t want to leave just yet at the sight before him.

An early return meant a scolding, a late return also led to a scolding, but at least he could witness the drama he had long anticipated.

He wanted to see Rein’s face contorted with desperation and wails.

Thus, as Alonso watched the situation heat up before him, he calculated the time and said, “Tell the messenger to inform my father that I will be back right away, half an hour, at most half an hour!”

“Very well, my lord.” Michel glanced at the somewhat familiar figure in the meeting room and hurried off again.

In the center of the meeting room.

“Enough!” A voice rebuked!

“Hm? What did you say?” The older noble surprisingly looked towards Rein.

Could this young man not see the situation clearly?

He still dared to speak in such a way?

Was it foolishness, or true courage?

“I said enough!” Rein said calmly.

“If you have any methods, use them all. My time is very precious.”

Although Rein said this with a calm demeanor, everyone present felt the determination and strength in his words.

It was as if, at that moment, they were the insects gathered in the darkness, while Rein was the knight shining in the sunlight.

The older noble then showed a look of regret, shook his head, and said, “That’s too bad, indeed. It’s truly regrettable.”

“Then you’ll have to become our prayer offering.”

The older noble tilted his head and gave a slight nod to Lamar, who was mingling in the crowd.

He had been entrusted by Lamar to lead this endeavor, and incidentally to try persuading Rein according to Lamar’s wishes.

Lamar then crushed a key-like device in his hand.

Suddenly, the brightness of the wall lamps dimmed, and the entire room immediately darkened; the ground and walls began to undergo a bizarre transformation.

Rein’s chest-badge, the Silver Conch Medal, began to vibrate violently.

Dense black and red lines appeared on the floor and walls; these lines, as thick as a pinky finger, abruptly swelled and thickened, resembling invisible living creatures. They bypassed the nobles and priests of the Black Flame, charging straight towards Rein.

At the same time, a smell that mixed the stench of decay and the odor of blood permeated the whole place.

Yet what puzzled Rein was that it seemed as if nobody else was aware of it.

The black mists, like living entities, flowed incessantly towards Rein’s location. Soon after, Rein was engulfed in these black vapors.

Seeing this scene unfold, everyone wore expressions of victory, Lamar included.

As the person responsible for arranging the Evil Power Sorcery Formation, he knew all too well the function of this formation.

The Evil Power Sorcery Formation had two functions.

First, its evil energy could erode all within its range who lacked a special mark, afflicting them with progressive restraints and weakness.

Furthermore, this effect would intensify as time passed.

Second, the other effect was enhancement; it would significantly bolster those with the special mark.

This was why everyone present believed Rein had no chance of escape.

Even a Great Knight, under the influence of the Evil Power Sorcery Formation, would not possess much more strength than an experienced knight, but conversely, their power would be further amplified within the formation.

With this loss and gain, they saw no way for Rein to emerge victorious!

However, Lamar, blended in the crowd, felt something was amiss as he watched the scene unfold before him!

Why?

Because Rein’s expression was too calm at the moment.

Then, a young noble beside him, seemingly unable to restrain his excitement, stood up and approached Rein with the stance of a victor, mockingly saying, “What a pity, so the so-called genius knight shall fall like this!”

“I hear that you’re quite close to Lady Crowley. Rest assured, once you become the nourishment for the ritual, our dear Baron Alonso will thoroughly enjoy her on your behalf.”

Hearing the young noble’s words, the other nobles eager for a spectacle laughed even louder!

“As for me, I hear you have a ten-year-old sister? Conveniently, I quite like little sisters….”

“Bang!!!”

Rein, surrounded by the dark mist, suddenly unleashed a punch like lightning, directly landing on the young noble’s forehead!

Being endowed with the ‘Steel Body’ talent, even without a weapon, Rein’s bare hands were as lethal as a hammer.

All of a sudden, the young noble’s head burst open!

Although the young noble’s body no longer had a head, it convulsed, remaining upright for two whole seconds before collapsing like a snake whose spine had been pulled out!
