Big Capitalist

Suddenly, the flesh and blood seemed to sense Merlin's arrival, and like an enraged poisonous snake, it suddenly leaped up and pounced on Merlin, intending to launch a fatal attack.

However, just as it was about to rush out of the cauldron, the black runes on the altar suddenly lit up, emitting a strange light and turning into invisible shackles that firmly fixed it inside the cauldron.

As the light flickered, a low humming sound could be heard, as if the runes were roaring majestically, preventing the flesh and blood from breaking free.

Merlin was frightened by this sudden change and took a step back. His face turned pale and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

He calmed himself down and quickly asked the Moon Goddess Selene in his heart: "What the hell is this thing?" There was a slight tremor in his voice. Although he had experienced many battles, the extremely evil scene before him still made him feel cold in his heart.

The moon goddess Selene was hiding in Merlin's body, also looking at the squirming piece of flesh with fear, and responded in Merlin's heart: "This is the ancient god. To be precise, it is the flesh and blood of the ancient god. There is only such a small piece, but there is no doubt that the piece of flesh and blood in front of you is the Lord of Plague." Her words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Merlin's heart hard, making his breathing stagnate.

"Lord of Plague!" Merlin's eyes widened, filled with shock and fear. He knew very well that this name represented endless disasters and destruction. The current miserable state of the Arcane City was largely caused by the Lord of Plague.

Merlin was extremely anxious and asked quickly: "Is there any way to directly kill this piece of flesh and blood?" At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind, which was to completely eradicate this source of evil and restore peace to the Arcane City.

The Moon Goddess Selene's voice was filled with helplessness: "You can't do it with your current strength. This is the flesh and blood of a god. You can't kill it at your level."

"You can't do it either?" Merlin still didn't give up and asked again.

The Moon Goddess Selene sighed softly: "I can't do anything right now, but don't worry, the person who can deal with this guy has arrived."

"Who?" Merlin had just thought of this, but before he could react, he suddenly saw an old figure appear beside him. This figure seemed to appear out of thin air, exuding a mysterious and powerful aura that made people unpredictable.

He was dressed in linen clothes, and his face was covered with wrinkles like ravines, but his eyes were as deep as the abyss, revealing endless wisdom and vicissitudes.

Merlin and the others instantly felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy, their muscles tensed, and they quickly took alert postures. They looked around vigilantly, their hearts full of astonishment and confusion, and they did not notice when this old man arrived.

He was like a ghost, silently penetrating everyone's perception defenses and appearing in front of them without any warning.

Hoyde looked seriously at the evil aura surging in the cauldron in front of him. His gaze was like a materialized sharp blade, as if he wanted to thoroughly dissect and kill the evil.

Stacy and Lilia stood aside, their eyes quickly focused on the uninvited guest. They noticed that the person who came was an old elf. However, his deep eyes and unique temperament were something they had never seen in their long years as elves. They couldn't help but secretly speculate about his origins.

Hoyde turned his head slightly and glanced at Merlin and the others. He seemed to notice their nervousness, and his expression relaxed a little. He said, "Don't be nervous, I mean no harm." His voice was low and magnetic, like the sound of an ancient bell, echoing in this gloomy underground space.

"I came here at the inspiration of Lady Moon Goddess, specifically to destroy the flesh and blood of the Lord of Plague." After saying this, his gaze once again turned to the disgusting black cauldron, and the disgust in his eyes became more intense, as if the things in the cauldron were the most filthy and unforgivable existence in the world.

Inside the black cauldron, the flesh and blood of the Lord of Plague seemed to be keenly aware of who was coming, and instantly became anxious and restless.

The flesh and blood, which was already wriggling strangely, now seemed to go crazy. It began to twist and expand rapidly, like a beast trapped in a cage, struggling desperately, and slamming hard against the inner wall of the black cauldron again and again, trying to break through the cage that imprisoned it and escape.

Every collision was accompanied by a dull sound. The black tripod was shaking and the runes on the tripod were flickering, as if trying its best to resist this violent force.

However, upon seeing this, Hoyde simply snorted coldly, his voice revealing endless contempt and strong self-confidence.

He slowly raised his hand, and lightly swept his slender and dry fingers across the black cauldron. In an instant, a powerful force of nature burst out.

The emerald green vines were like spirit snakes emerging from the ground, entwining the entire black cauldron at a speed visible to the naked eye. The vines were thick and tough, with sharp barbs on the surface, flashing a faint green light.

Under the erosion of the vines, the originally evil and ferocious demon seal runes on the black cauldron instantly collapsed, turning into tiny black lights and disappearing into nothingness.

The flesh and blood of the Lord of Plague, wrapped in layers of countless fresh leaves, seemed to be caught in a green vortex. It gradually lost the strength to struggle, and finally disappeared completely, leaving only deathly silence.

Hoyd waved his hand, and this powerful force of nature raged again.

In an instant, the site of this evil sacrificial ceremony seemed to be swept by a green storm. The pure green magic power was like a surging tide, and all filth and evil were washed away wherever it passed.

The corpses that were originally piled up like a mountain were instantly covered and buried by the crazy growth of countless plants that broke through the ground. In just a moment, the ground was covered with thick vegetation, like a new green land, and there was no trace of blood or stench.

Then, an even more astonishing scene appeared. Thick plant roots spread rapidly throughout the sewer like winding dragons. They intertwined and entangled with each other, forming an extremely solid green support that slowly lifted up the city of Arcane.

As the roots continued to climb, the ground began to tremble slightly, and people were surprised to find that the buildings that had collapsed and been damaged due to the war were gradually restored to their original appearance with the support of this magical power. The bricks and stones were returned to their original places, and the walls were repaired. The Arcane City seemed to be reborn with new vitality.

"Such a powerful force!" Merlin widened his eyes and looked at Hoyd in shock, the awe in his eyes was beyond words.

He was secretly amazed in his heart. Such extraordinary means were beyond his imagination. Compared with them, he was like a firefly compared to the bright moon.

Hoyde seemed to sense Merlin's gaze and turned to look at him. When his eyes met the moonlight on Merlin's body that had not yet dissipated, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

But he did not say much, just waved his hand gently again, and in an instant, everyone felt a flash of light in front of their eyes, as if they had traveled through a tunnel of time and space. Before they could come to their senses, they had already arrived at the streets of the Arcane City from the dark and damp sewers.
