An ethereal call sounded in Charles' mind. The voice sounded like his own, but it was not clear in the illusion.

This call struck Ciel's spirit like lightning, as if [Calm Thinking] was activated. She suddenly opened her eyes and took a deep breath.

Black shadow!!!

Ciel was no longer able to make any sound, but her inner cries seemed to have worked.

Four burning black shadows slowly rose from the black "quagmire" on the ground. These naked black shadows had almost the same shape and appearance as Charles.

They took a step forward synchronously, half-knelt beside Charles, slowly stretched out their arms, and hugged Charles in the center.

Boom——!

A violent airflow erupted from Charles' center toward the periphery, and the cocoon-like black flames were instantly broken through, turning into boundless fire and dissipating with the wind.

Other colors appeared in Ciel's eyes again, and she saw everything around her before she was swallowed by the black fire.

Her chest was burning hot. Looking down, she saw scar marks on her chest that looked like letters, and she could also see brain matter and blood on her knees and legs.

The strength in her body was recovering rapidly, but the buzzing in her brain still did not subside much. Charles' ears were covered by the buzzing and he could not hear any sound at all.

But the strange thing was... she didn't feel much pain - compared to her previous mumbling.

The chaotic voices in his head came from nowhere. Except for the stinging sensation in Charles's brain when certain words were chanted, the rest of the time it was just a black noise filled with screams and oppression.

Charles slowly raised her head, and suddenly, her brows slowly frowned.

She... seemed to sense the source of this scream, this black noise.

Charles slowly stretched out his hand, and the half-kneeling shadow dragged her arms and body, helping her to stand up. Blood and brain matter flowed down her knees and hands.

The four burning shadows, along with Ciel, slowly turned around and looked towards the source of the black noise.

That was Julis behind the broken desk.

At this moment, Julis's chest was heaving violently. Her gray pupils stared confusedly in the direction of Charles, with a look of fear on her face.

She opened her mouth and seemed to be saying something, but Charles couldn't hear what she was saying at all.

"Julis..."

Charles stretched out his right hand in the direction of Julis. He was extremely thirsty and his voice was hoarse. He just wanted to ask Julis for a portion of Adele's special potion.

She had never longed for that minty potion more than she did now.

But what Ciel didn't expect was that just as she opened her mouth, Julis's figure began to flicker, and in the blink of an eye, it was replaced by an illusory white shadow.

Moreover, the replaced shadow only existed for less than a second before it was quickly sucked away and dragged directly into the tunnel behind, disappearing without a trace.

It’s just borrowing another bottle of recovery potion, is it that serious?

Ciel frowned slightly.

However, after Julis disappeared, the suppressed screams in Ciel's ears weakened a little, and she could already hear some subtle sounds.

Just now... was it me who sensed Julis's emotions?

Do you also have the ability to perceive emotions?

Then why were Julis' emotions filled with these strange howls and deep-rooted fear?

Is her potion not going out of control?

The black shadow handed Charles a clean handkerchief he had found. Charles took the handkerchief and wiped the brain matter and blood off his hands.

But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't wipe it off, there was still some blood left on it.

Charles turned his head to look at where Kitty fell. Her head was still in the state where he had just stepped on it, and even the carpet was soaked with blood.

It seems that the black flames during the re-enactment ceremony just now will not affect the outside world.

But all his clothes were burned... This made Charles a little confused.

As Charles thought about it, four black shadows ran in four different directions and disappeared into the office.

Soon, one of the shadows returned to Charles with a clean maid dress.

It was obviously the dress worn by the red chip masked maid at Deton Manor. Charles had seen it many times. This one seemed to be new, but it was a little too big for Charles.

Everything on his body was burned by the black fire, and Charles could only use this set of clothes to cover his body.

After changing into this black and white maid dress, Charles could only move barefoot temporarily because he had no suitable shoes, but this did not affect Charles's actions much.

There's still time...why not try [Spiritual Summoning]?

Charles looked at Kitty's shattered body and thought.

Something was already growing in Kitty's shattered head. It seemed to be the material of the potion extracted from Kitty's body.

These materials or potions extracted from other people's bodies all carry the mental pollution of the original owner. Charles has no means to deal with them, so it is useless to take them.

Even if he took it, there was no way Charles would spend his destiny points to exchange for a secondary contaminated material.

This is not a good deal for Charles.

Using the flesh and blood of a second-level transcendent or potion materials for sacrifice...seems a bit too unstable.

She had finally upgraded "Avenger" Charles to "Judge" Charles, and she didn't want to do it again, nor did she want to experience the pain she had just felt.

If possible, she wanted to get through the 24 hours steadily and save this archive.

However, Charles still feels a little confused about how to use the second-level ability.

There were too many and too mixed voices in her head, making it difficult for her to concentrate on thinking about which fragmented pieces of knowledge were her abilities and which were just useless nonsense.

At least she can't tell it apart smoothly now.

If the save file can be successfully saved this time, Charles will consider upgrading [Calm Thinking] to another level after he goes out, as it will be necessary for emergencies.

Of course, the premise is that the upgrade will not empty Ciel's [Destiny Points]

Charles withdrew his gaze from Kitty's body.

Kitty's body cannot be used for sacrifice for the time being, so you can take it with you for now.

Charles prepared to sacrifice some low-level materials and see what would happen.

And here in Deton Manor, there is no shortage of low-level materials.

Now that the cultists who were in charge of Deton Manor are dead, shouldn't the things in the underground exchange area be available for anyone to use as they please?

It's time to shop for £0.

A dark figure in a black maid outfit handed Kitty's black chip mask to Charles, who took it and put on the mask.

Charles, wearing a mask, walked towards the door step by step on the blood-stained carpet.

She reached out, opened the door and walked out, and behind her, the shadows dragged Kitty's body and Kitty's potion materials and followed behind Charles.

Snap, snap—

Charles's footsteps left bloody footprints on the wooden corridor. Soon, the new footprints gradually faded, and the remaining blood plasma and dust mixed together and solidified on the soles of her feet.

This feeling made Charles feel uncomfortable. She frowned slightly and wondered if there was anything she could use to wash her feet.

But... she knew how to get to the stairs in the underground sanctuary. After all, there was only one spiral staircase.

But how do I get down from the third floor of this manor to the first floor? Where are the stairs?

As expected, Charles got lost again in this huge manor.

Just when Charles was about to send her clone out to look for her, she heard hurried and heavy footsteps coming towards her from the corner in front.

The maids? The gamblers? The dealers?

As the footsteps got closer, the mumbling in Charles's head became more intense and clearer.

She could feel the shock and indignation revealed in the chaotic language.

The moment the footsteps turned the corner, all these sounds turned into screams and fear.

"Lord Kitty!!!"

A greasy middle-aged man with a beer belly fell to his knees almost instantly, looking at the terrifying girl wearing a black mask in front of him with horror and anger on his face.

And the head-broken female corpse that was held upside down behind the girl, with blood flowing all the way.

He didn't recognize the strange barefoot girl in front of him, but the girl seemed to recognize him.

“Marcelo…yes…you are still alive here…”

"Where are the others? Marcelo..."

"where are they?"

Marcelo, kneeling on the ground, felt nothing around him. He suddenly felt a burning pain in his neck, followed by a spiritual alarm ringing wildly in his brain.

Next to the shadow behind him, a standing girl's shadow had appeared without him noticing. She was holding a black, burning hand axe, which was placed on the neck of his shadow.

Chapter 76 Large-scale team dungeon "Char's Wrath"

At 5:30 in the morning, the sky over Buren City just turned a hint of deep blue.

A carriage with the emblem of the Church of Our Lady of Savior was speeding towards the Knightsbridge district.

Soon, the carriage stopped at the gate of the manor at No. 15 Sir Bridge District.

Two figures sitting in the driver's seat, dressed in plain black and with hoods covering their faces, got out of the car. One of them walked quickly to the carriage and opened the door, while the other ran to the gate of the manor.

"High Priest, please be careful."

Inside the car, a woman wearing a dress with white patterns, who was obviously more advanced than the two people just now, jumped out of the car directly.

Almost at the moment she got off the car, a figure in silver-white armor walked out of the manor gate.

Every step the armored figure took made the sound of armor clashing, attracting the attention of the three people outside the manor.

"High Priest Julis."

A humming sound, caused by metallic vibrations, emanated from within the armor. The armor looked at Julis before it and inquired, "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"

This armor belongs to Nia.

At this moment, Nia already felt something was wrong.

It is definitely not a good thing for the high priest who is currently in charge of the city of Burren to come to Miss Avina so late at night.

Nia's intuition told her that this was most likely related to Miss Ciel running away just now. After all, Miss Ciel looked very abnormal at that time... It felt like she was affected by drinking a potion.

"I need to see Miss Russell. Please inform me, Your Excellency."

Julis took off her mask, turned towards Nia, and said seriously, "This is a very important matter... It concerns the 'Judge' potion legend."

In fact, Julis had no intention of pursuing the matter of the leaked "Judge" potion, but now she had to bring it up to ensure that she could see Avina as soon as possible.

She must get Avina's help to capture Charles, who is on the verge of losing control... Julis has no confidence that she can complete this task alone.

The main reason for Avina to agree to help was to get the third-level "Crown Guard" in front of him to help. This was the purpose of Julis's trip.

She was just gambling.

Betting on how important Charles is to Avina.

Sure enough, after hearing Julis mention the "Judge" potion, Nia was silent for a while.

After about three seconds, Nia slowly said, "I don't know anything about the 'Judge' potion, but if you want to see Miss Avina, you can come in. She happens to be awake."

Nia opened the iron gate of the manor and moved sideways to make some space.

Awake? At this time?

Although Julis was a little surprised, she signaled the ascetics behind her to wait where they were, and followed Nia alone.

Since the reception room had not been repaired yet, Yulis was taken to the study on the first floor used for receiving guests to sit and wait. After waiting for about five minutes, Avina hurried into the study and sat on the single sofa opposite Yulis.

"Hello, Miss Russell."

Yulis nodded slightly and said to Avina, "We have met before. My name is Yulis."

"Ah."

Avina responded expressionlessly, but she was actually a little anxious.

Because she heard from Nia that the arrival of High Priest Julis was related to Charles.
