"Testing my strength?"
Leylin sneered, "If that's the case, then I'll kill you, imprison your soul, and burn it for ten thousand years!"
The coldness in his tone seemed to make the surrounding temperature drop a lot.
"Hehe … I'm just joking with you!
This matter was definitely an accident!
An accident! "
Melinda switched to a sweet girl's voice this time.
"Also, to make it up to you, big brother, Melinda has prepared a very good gift for you!
Open the astral gate! "
"Gift?"
Leylin frowned, but quickly arrived at the astral laboratory and opened the astral gate. Rays that resembled blue flames formed a spatial passageway.
Leylin still maintained a high level of vigilance towards Melinda. Hence, the astral stone's energy and spell patterns could only be transmitted through inanimate objects. Once foreign energy or even spiritual force invaded, the passageway would immediately be closed.
However, Melinda didn't seem to have any tricks up her sleeves this time. A square black box was directly transmitted over.
While the astral gate cost a lot of resources to activate, it was still a very popular method of transferring resources in the central continent, especially in the Morning Star area of the Warlock Union.
There were many seals on the black box. Leylin looked at them casually, and found that they seemed to be some sort of preservation spell patterns and ice runes.
"Whoosh!"
With a puff of air, the runes on the surface of the black box cracked inch by inch. The box opened automatically, revealing the item inside.
The smell of blood wafted out.
"Hm?
This Magus? "
Inside the black box was the head of a Magus!
Furthermore.
Leylin was very familiar with this Magus. It was the leader of the Magi who had attacked him in Twilight Zone!
A Radiant Moon Magus at the Full Moon realm.
He was the only one who had escaped from his hands.
"It's not just the face, even the soul undulations are correct!" Looking at the results of the A.I. Chip's scan, Leylin nodded.
It was easy for Magi to forge such flesh and blood, but the aura of the soul lingering on the head, as well as the unwillingness and resentment, was very difficult to replicate.
"Hehe … How is it?
This Magus is called Mario, and he's the most loyal subordinate of the Blazing Flame Monarch!
I spent a lot of effort and took advantage of the time when the Blazing Flame Monarch was out to get rid of him!
Now, Melinda has given me this gift.
Is Big Brother satisfied? "
"Yes!
I'm very satisfied! "
Leylin waved his hand, and Marion's head floated into the air. The hatred on his face was vivid and lifelike, even surpassing the wails of thousands of vengeful spirits.
Dark Magi could extract a lot of information from fresh brain tissue. Although Marion was a Radiant Moon, he could not avoid such a fate after his death.
"This time, the other party sent this gift. Is it because they want to show off?"
To be able to kill a Full Moon Magus, even if he wasn't a Breaking Dawn Monarch, he wasn't far from it.
Leylin had long since known that the other party was not simple.
Now that she had the strength of a rank 5 being after her rebirth, she could even kill Marion. While Marion had been heavily injured by Leylin, it was hard to overlook her immense strength.
"I admit it.
The current you is qualified to cooperate with me! "
Large amounts of black flames rose from Leylin's hands, and Marion's head slowly melted in the flames.
In the end, nothing was left.
"Hehe!
I knew Big Brother was the best!
Mm!
Wait, she's coming out! "
The girl's voice suddenly became more mature, "Little Wizard!
We meet again! "
'Damn!
Another one with a split personality! 'Leylin rolled his eyes inwardly.
"Get straight to the point. Why did you drag me along?"
"To slaughter the Blazing Flame Monarch.
Are you interested? "The female Magus's voice was very direct.
However, this time, Leylin did not beat around the bush like before, "Yes!
But we're not strong enough! "
"I know the Blazing Flame Monarch's weakness, as well as when he's at his weakest!
On top of that, I'll bring a few more friends with me … "
Melinda seemed very confident, evidently having an extraordinary understanding of the Blazing Flame Monarch and a great deal of information.
"Since that's the case, why me?
Wayde and Offa should be interested in this suggestion, right? "
Leylin voiced out his doubts.
"Because you're the most powerful Warlock in the Warlock Union!
Besides, after the Blazing Flame Monarch falls, we'll all obtain great benefits. It'd be a waste to have a few more to share … "
"On top of that, those old bloodline Warlocks only set their sights on the Warlock who inherited the bloodline of a rank 6 existence. They're really pedantic and short-sighted …"
Melinda seemed to be very disdainful of the rank 5 Warlocks in the Warlock Union.
"Of course you can tell them about our mission, but I guarantee that they won't be interested. Besides, even if you pull them over, you won't get a share of the profits after the mission … This channel of mine is very secure, so you don't have to worry about being eavesdropped. I'll pass this method to you later, and we'll keep in touch like this in the future!"
Melinda immediately cut off the communication after she finished speaking, leaving Leylin alone in deep thought.
After a long while, Leylin stroked his chin, "It seems like this Melinda's true identity isn't simple. She might even have a deep relationship with the Blazing Flame Monarch!"
In actuality, Leylin was already rather approving of Melinda's actions.
Leylin had obtained a lot of information from the memories he'd extracted from Marion's head. At the very least, the fact that Marion had suddenly chased him to Twilight Zone and ambushed him was confirmed by the Blazing Flame Monarch's orders.
With Leylin's temper, he would definitely take revenge fiercely if he encountered such a thing.
However, according to Melinda's script, that was absolutely impossible. Even if Marion suddenly showed kindness and did not plot against him in secret, he would definitely reap a lot of benefits.
Leylin did not want to fight to the death with a Breaking Dawn Magus only to end up empty-handed. Hence, it was necessary to obtain a lot of information and make preparations beforehand.
In the eyes of Magi outside, Leylin and Melinda looked like lunatics, completely lacking the rationality and calmness of a Magus.
Two rank 5s wanted to kill a rank 6 Breaking Dawn Monarch? This was a joke!
In actuality, however, Leylin and Melinda had great confidence in themselves. Ordinary Radiant Moon Magi could not compare to them.
Beneath their calm exterior hid a fanatical desire to take risks. They were also people who would definitely take revenge, which was why they were able to form a fragile alliance with a common hatred.
'But who else would Melinda go to?'
Leylin was a little doubtful, 'There are at most twenty or so Radiant Moons in the central continent, and our Warlock Union has five of them. There are very few Radiant Moons like Zegna who came out to establish themselves, and most of them are under the command of other Monarchs … Does Melinda want to persuade the other Monarchs?'
There were not many Radiant Moons in the central continent. Even if the large organisations had hidden Magi, Leylin reckoned that there would not be more than thirty of them.
He had killed two Radiant Moons under the Blazing Flame Monarch, and with Marion, who Melinda had sent over today, it was possible that the Blazing Flame Monarch did not have any high-ranked subordinates, which was why she had come to stop Leylin.
The possibility of this was very high. There might not even be a single Radiant Moon under the Blazing Flame Monarch's command.
The Blazing Flame Monarch's hatred for Leylin and Melinda, the main culprits of all this, must have reached her very bones.
If not for the Morning Star area being so powerful and having a record of being able to rival Breaking Dawn Magi, the Blazing Flame Monarch would have long since attacked.
As for Melinda?
This woman was too mysterious, and she might even have more trump cards than Leylin. She definitely had some hidden tricks up her sleeve, and Leylin did not even consider her safety.
'From what she said, there seems to be some incredible benefits after getting rid of the Blazing Flame Monarch …'
The A.I. Chip's fluorescence appeared in Leylin's eyes, and many images and scenes flashed past.
This was proof that the A.I. Chip's processing capacity had been pushed to the limit, and it was beginning to make deductions.
'Her words are very trustworthy. Since that's the case, I don't need to invite Wayde and the others. Of course, I can still ask the Warlock Union to gather information beforehand!'
Leylin made up his mind.
It wasn't just the Warlock Union. Even the Ouroboros Clan was preparing to order the Kemoyin Warlocks to gather information on the Blazing Flame Monarch, especially information related to Melinda.
He had a premonition that the relationship between these two people was definitely not simple. So much so that when the final mystery was revealed, it might even shock everyone.
However, compared to gathering information, Leylin paid more attention to the information that Melinda had leaked.
'So there's already a Warlock in the Warlock Union whose bloodline has reached rank 6?'
Leylin's eyes flickered, 'That Radiant Moon Warlock who hasn't shown himself might be busy with this matter …'
Even if the Kemoyin Warlock's bloodline had advanced to the Serpent Emperor rank, the bloodline source was still rank 5. It was still a little inferior to a rank 6 bloodline.
The bloodline shackles would only appear after reaching rank 6, which was much better than Leylin and the other Warlocks.
Of course, before the appearance of rank 6 bloodlines, Warlocks with rank 5 bloodlines could be considered tall, rich, and handsome among Warlocks. They were also the ones who single-handedly supported the Warlock Union.
Rank 6 bloodline inheritors were the hope of advancing to Breaking Dawn and raising the Bloodline Monarch!
