Chapter 551: Soul Completion, Carefully Observing
Vincent did not care about Justin’s reminder. After experiencing so many things together, the two of them had accumulated enough trust and had a tacit understanding between them.
Vincent quickly urged, “Now that you’ve absorbed so many souls, have you recovered? Gajero is right outside. If you can move, quickly come out and help!”
Justin said lazily, “Not yet! The injuries that Gajero had inflicted on me are extremely difficult to heal using the blood law alone. Only when I fall into a deep sleep can my injuries stop and not continue to spread throughout my body. The souls that I had absorbed using the blood law just now can only sustain my injuries for a short period of time. If you want me to be available for a longer period of time, you’ll need more souls!”
Vincent nodded and said, “This is the world of the Phantom Race. I can collect a large number of souls for you at any time. However, before that, I still have some souls to give you!”
Vincent then raised his hand and waved it. All the souls stored in his body were summoned. Among them were the souls of the Undead Race that Vincent had previously killed, as well as the souls of all the monsters that he had collected in the Black Hole World.
Due to their low strengths, they were no longer of any use to Vincent. Hence, they were forgotten by him. Since they were currently able to help Justin recover from his injuries, it could be said that they had achieved their final value.
Justin did not emerge from Vincent’s body immediately. He carefully poked his head out and saw the souls that filled the space tunnel.
Justin patted his chest and said to Vincent with confidence, “Good boy, I really did not expect you to have so many souls. I should be able to temporarily suppress the injuries in my body after I finish devouring all these souls. You just need to tell me what we should do. As long as I am here, I will solve all your problems!”
Vincent nodded and pointed at the souls in front of him, gesturing for Justin to deal with them as he pleased. He then said, “These souls were all the culprits who had invaded the various worlds when they were alive and killed many living beings. Any method of death is not unjust to them. You can deal with them as you wish from now on. Once you’ve recovered, I’ll leave Gajero who is outside to you!”
Upon hearing this, Justin could not help but cough. He said with a troubled expression, “If I deal with Gajero, wouldn’t I be sending myself to my death? Not to mention me absorbing these souls, even if I was at my peak condition, I wouldn’t be able to match up to Gajero at all! If you insist on me doing this, I’d rather not have these souls!”
Vincent smiled slightly. He pointed at the space barrier and said, “Under normal circumstances, I would naturally not let you deal with Gajero, but the current Gajero is heavily injured. I believe that you still have room to maneuver in front of him! Moreover, you don’t need to confront him head-on. You just need to gain his attention and distract him. At that time, you can use your connection with me to return to my body in an instant. You definitely won’t be harmed by Gajero again!”
Justin looked at the space barrier with doubt. Gajero was still talking to Kyle. Although his face was full of impatience, he still seemed to be speaking to Kyle patiently. It seemed like there was something making him unwilling to move.
Justin understood this murderer who had personally destroyed the Vampire Race. This insufferably arrogant Demon King, would not be patient with anyone or anything. Even if he wanted to ask for some important information, he would also use extreme methods to extort a confession. Many vampire experts had died in Gajero’s hands just like that.
At that moment, Gajero was chatting leisurely with the others. This meant that he was unable to make a move or was temporarily unable to make a move at all.
Justin asked Vincent curiously, “Gajero’s actions are indeed a little strange. However, how can you tell that he has been seriously injured?”
Vincent raised his chin slightly and said softly, “Look at his hands. He is always unconsciously touching his chest and abdomen. His slightly furrowed brow shows that he is enduring intense pain. It seems that the injuries on his body cannot even be healed even with the special recovery abilities of the demons! Plus, remember the restrictions on the Black Hole outside. They were personally set up by the Protoss. Even if Gajero could forcefully break through, he would also suffer a great degree of backlash. He would not be able to recover in a short period of time! Don’t you think that now is the best time for you to take action?”
Justin listened to Vincent’s analysis and could not help but nod repeatedly. At the same time, the confidence in his heart began to ignite. A heroic aura instantly emerged into his heart.
“Alright, we’ll do as you say, but you’ll have to wait for me first!”
After Justin agreed to Vincent’s suggestion, he immediately turned around to face the army of souls. With a violent wave of his hand, a wave of blood-red energy instantly spread out, disintegrating all the souls. He had turned them into specks of crystal dust and fused it with his body.
As his soul was in the process of healing, Justin’s body started to become visible again. He was no longer as transparent. However, there was a severe and shocking wound on his chest, proving that his injury was still there.
After seeing Justin’s soul state, Vincent said, “Now is not the time for you to make your appearance. Just enjoy the show outside of the space barrier first! I will also summon an audience!”
Vincent then raised his left hand and pointed at the void in the space tunnel. Numerous layers of the translucent space barriers slowly opened, allowing a circular platform to slowly enter.
It was the demon princess, Alexia, who was standing on the platform!
After experiencing a long and depressing period of imprisonment, Alexia only had anger toward Vincent. She could not help but curse loudly, “B*stard! Do you know how long you’ve been controlling me? Only now did you let me out for some fresh air… Wait, isn’t that my father?”
Just as Alexia was about to fight Vincent to the death, she suddenly noticed Gajero’s figure. She quickly lay down in front of the space barrier and cried out in excitement, naively hoping that Gajero would hear her cry for help and help her get out of the current predicament.
Vincent stepped forward and grabbed Alexia. His tone was solemn as he said, “Listen! I don’t know what Gajero saw in you that made him choose to come and save you personally. Before you figure out the reason, don’t even think about leaving my control! As long as you try, the only price will be death!”
Alexia turned to look at Vincent, tears welling up in her eyes. She begged with a plaintive tone, “Can you not lock me up with the 26th Corps? Those demon soldiers only know how to sit cross-legged in the space like pieces of wood. They are no different from a dead person. If you lock me up there again, I will kill myself!”
Vincent did not want to get into it with Alexia, so he threw her aside and said, “The space tunnel is very long. Next time, I will teleport you far away from the 26th Corps. Is that what you want?”
Alexia took a deep breath and looked at Gajero’s figure with anticipation. She asked with a complicated expression, “Since you took the initiative to let me out, then tell me, what do you want me to do?”
Vincent smiled and said, “I didn’t know you were so smart. I just want to ask you, what kind of requirements does Gajero usually have for you? Especially in terms of training!”
Alexia was silent for a long time because she had never really compromised with Vincent. At that moment, hope was right in front of her. Alexia had lost the courage to stand up for herself. She only wanted to cooperate with Vincent’s inquiry as much as possible and preserve her strength whilst waiting for her father’s rescue.
“Father’s requirements for me are extremely strict! That’s because he is grooming me as a successor. He is hoping that I will not be a disgrace since I am the last remaining Immortal. Thus, in all the tests that the demons need to undergo, he requires me to always come first! With my father’s full guidance, I was able to stand out among the many princes and princesses of the Demon Race and successfully take control of the 24th Corps. I became the first daughter under father’s command to serve him!”
Vincent could not help but frown more and more after listening to Alexia’s explanation.
Justin, who was at the side, could not help but quietly ask Vincent, “What’s wrong?”
Vincent shook his head and said with a puzzled face, “From what she said so far, there is no problem at all, but this is too strange! You must know that Gajero is a cold-blooded demon who only loves himself and doesn’t love anything else. How could he be so concerned about Alexia? This doesn’t make sense at all. But if you want to know the secret, I’m afraid you can only go down to meet Gajero personally!”
After hearing that, Justin once again sized up Gajero’s figure, he said somewhat impatiently, “How much longer do we have to wait? Let me go! We might be able to find some clues about the Immortals from Gajero!”
Vincent nodded. He then raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
A crack immediately appeared in front of Justin. Although the size was exactly the same as the space door, it was in a closed state. The outside world was unable to detect the existence of the sealed space door.
In the Phantom World, Gajero was patiently conversing with Kyle. He had used multiple ways to confirm Kyle’s true racial identity. However, Kyle’s answers always seem to be related to the Human Race.
Finally, Gajero stopped speaking. He looked at Kyle in front of him and said with a hideous smile, “Enough! You and your Human Race can die!”
Kyle smiled angrily and questioned Gajero, “What do you mean?”
He still did not seem to realize the seriousness of the matter.
Gajero shot out another destructive ray without any explanation. It brushed past half of Kyle’s cheek and caused his head to disintegrate in the air as if it had never appeared.
Gajero looked at Kyle, who had died in fear, and sighed angrily, “B*stard, I’ve wanted to seal your mouth for a long time!”
