Chapter 801: the potion to seal spiritual power
Ying Bao’s eyes suddenly turned sharp. He said mockingly, “Short-sighted trash, other than this magic circle, what else can you trap me with?”
“You don’t have to worry about that.”Abel had appeared behind Ying Bao at some point in time. He put his hand on Ying Bao’s shoulder and said in a calm tone.
A chill ran down Ying Bao’s back. Before he could scream, he was knocked unconscious by Abel.
Looking at Ying Bao lying on the ground, Kant walked to Abel and said, “He’s right. We don’t have any way to restrain him. When he wakes up, he could slip away from us at any time.”
“There is a spell that can seal the spiritual power of others in the elves, but none of us have learned this high-level spell,”Abel replied. “If we give this shadow to the medic in the team, they should be able to use a mind power spell to make the shadow feel like its spiritual power has been sealed.”
“I see. That’s Great!”Bunduk cheered from the side. During the battle in undead city, he had deeply experienced the power of the Mind Power Elf’s spell.
“Mm.”Kant nodded. “I’ve heard about the power of the mind power mage before. I didn’t expect that there would be such talents in the army.”
“They specialize in medicine,”Abel explained. “They don’t appear in front of everyone.”
“Then, we can only leave this matter to the few mage,”Kant replied. “Quickly send the shadow to the tent for medical use.”
“Yes!”Abel replied. He waved his hand and summoned a few of his subordinates. He instructed them, “Please help carry the shadow to the tent for medical use. I’ll rush over and explain it to Krovka myself.”
“Roger that, Captain Abel,”the few soldier replied.
Then, the few soldier carried the sleeping shadow stalker to the stretcher that was brought over. They carried the stretcher and walked towards the tent at the back.
The other soldiers around them were also dismissed to their posts or returned to their tents to rest.

Kant, Abel, and Bunduk walked towards Raphael and asked with concern, “Raphael, are you alright?”
“I’m fine.”Raphael shook his head and replied with a relaxed smile on his face.
“That’s good.”Bunduk heaved a sigh of relief and said, “It seems that the dark forces do not intend to let us off.”
Kant and Bunduk, who were lying in ambush outside the tent, heard Raphael’s conversation with shadow rat clearly.
“Since they have decided to do so,”Kant raised his eyes and said, “We have to be more proactive.”
Abel turned to Kant in surprise and asked, “Your Majesty, are you prepared to participate in the war on this island?”
“I’m not sure yet,”Kant said faintly. “However, the meaning in shadow demon’s words should be that the person behind him gave him an order. “Since the other party’s attitude is so resolute, we don’t have to worry too much about their position.”
Bunduk frowned and said, “But we haven’t contacted the surface forces on the island yet…”
“This is one of the things we need to do step by step,”Kant replied, “We don’t need to go to the volcano in the center of the island to find the Midget clan. Dwarf town is a good starting point.”
“But how can we get to know the representatives of those forces on the surface?”Bunduk asked in puzzlement.
“There is no special method.”Kant shrugged his shoulders, he stated, “Right now, the people of both sides in the city are watching each other. The news of our attack on shadow demon will naturally spread within both sides. We just need to wait for them to come and look for us.”
“King Kant is indeed a person with a long-term vision,”Abel said in admiration. “When I participated in this plan, I never thought that catching shadow pole would bring about such an effect.”
“I am only taking one step at a time.”Kant shook his head, he replied humbly, “The most important thing is to successfully capture Shadow Pole. Let’s go. By now, Shadow Pole should be awake. Let’s go ask him.”
“Yes,”Bunduk and Bunduk replied.
“Raphael, thank you for your hard work.”Kant patted Raphael on the shoulder and said to him, “This matter has come to an end. You should return to the camp to rest.”
Raphael glanced at Abel who was beside him. He smiled and said to Kant, “It’s nothing. I just moved my lips. Since all the leaders have things to do, I will take my leave.”
“Yes.”Kant nodded as a response.
Raphael bowed to Kant and the others and returned to his tent.
Kant led the two captain beside him to the tent where the medic was working.
“In the future, Raphael shouldn’t need to be involved in operational matters, right?”Abel confirmed with Kant.
“We don’t know yet,”Kant replied. “But the probability is that.”
“Then, does he need to be sent back to the Elf Kingdom?”Bunduk asked.
“Let’s bring him with us for the time being,”Kant said. “Raphael’s emotions fluctuate quite a bit. If we send him back to the Elf Kingdom now, he might do some disturbing things.”
“Yes,”Bunduk agreed.
The three of them walked into the tent where the medical soldiers were.
As the medical captain, Krovka immediately came forward and greeted the three of them. “King Kant! Captain Abel, Commander Bunduk. I Am Krovka, the medical captain of the ELF troops.”
“Hello,”Kant and Bunduk greeted Krovka one after another.
“Krovka, is that shadow bug awake?”Abel asked anxiously.
“Not yet.”Krovka shook his head. “I’ve never come into contact with shadow bugs before, so I could only inject him with a tranquilizer and seal the source of spirit energy in his body.”
“Seal the source of spirit energy? How did you do that?”Abel asked in surprise.
“OH.”. “Of course, I didn’t use a spell. That kind of spell is too complicated. “We mortals can’t understand it.”Krovka explained, “I used a new type of potion that can simulate the effect of a high-level spell, so that the injected person can not use spirit energy for the time being.”
“How long is the time for the time being?”Kant asked.
“Three hours.”Krovka wiped his sweat, “It’s just that this is the first time we used this kind of potion. From the looks of it, it has produced some side effects on the body of the shadow spider, causing it to not be able to wake up.”
“This will be troublesome.”Bunduk frowned and said.
“Continue to observe and see. It’s always good to find a way to reduce the amount of magic power on the body of the Shadow Stalker.”Kant nodded.
Chapter 802: the list of names forced to be handed over
The three of them sat down beside the bed of the Shadow Stalker.
Kant stretched out his hand and touched the arm of the shadow stalker. After feeling the bone-piercing chill, he immediately withdrew his hand.
“Why is his hand so cold?”Kant whispered.
“It seems that this physique has something to do with the Shadow Stalker’s origin.”Abel thought for a while and answered, “Every shadow stalker’s body is extremely cold until they die.”
“It’s actually not strange to associate it with their strange spell,”Bunduk replied.
“How are the soldier who sent them here?”Kant asked worriedly.
“Soldier is a mage. He should be able to dispel this characteristic with a spell,”Bunduk looked at Abel and predicted.
“Well, the soldier isn’t injured.”Abel nodded. “However, the shadow’s physique is indeed a bit troublesome.”
“It’s good that he’s fine,”Kant said with a sigh of relief.
After a while, shadow something, who was lying on the bed, woke up, and the three of them stopped talking.
“Who are you?”Shadow Something’s turbid eyes revealed a guarded look.
The room was brightly lit. Such an environment made him even more uneasy.
“I’m the Lord of Caradia, Kant. “This is the commander of Caradia’s troops, Bunduk. “You should have seen him before. He is the captain of the reconnaissance team sent by the elves, Abel.”Kant introduced calmly, “That’s all. Where is your self-introduction?”
“Where am I Now?”Shadow Pole did not answer Kant’s question. Instead, he tore off the quilt on his body and struggled to sit up.
“His Majesty is asking for your name!”Bunduk glared fiercely at Shadow Something and warned him in a stern voice.
Shadow something narrowed his eyes and looked at him. His eyes revealed a dangerous light.
Just when he was about to circulate the spiritual power in his body, he was shocked to feel that his body was empty. There was no trace of spiritual power.
“What have you done to me? !”Shadow Something’s expression became distorted. He stared at the three people in front of him with a ferocious expression and roared, “You bunch of scoundrels!”
“I just want you to temporarily lose your luck,”Kant said indifferently. “As long as you answer our next question seriously, I will tell you the method to break the seal.”
“You…”a hint of timidity appeared on Shadow Pole’s face. He did not know that there was a high-level mage who was proficient in this kind of spell in the military barrack. Now, his gaze was locked on Abel’s body. These three people only used his body’s spiritual power to fluctuate. It seemed that he was the one who cast this kind of spell on himself.
“Are You Ready?”Abel and Shadow Rock looked at each other and asked.
“I don’t know anything! I’m just a messenger,”shadow rock shouted.
“Just tell us everything you know,”Bunduk replied expressionlessly.
“First of all, What’s Your Name Again?”Kant threw out the first question.
“Frey.”Shadow King kneeled on the sickbed in compromise and answered softly.
“Frey, who is the person behind your back?”Abel asked.
“KLA. A snake-woman.”Frey answered briefly.
Bunduk and Abel looked at each other. Both of their expressions became awkward.
“How do you usually contact him?”Kant asked. “In the dark forces, who else is in contact with you?”
“Send a message. We only meet once a month.”Frey raised his head and looked at Kant, “Why do you need this information? The situation on the island is not something you can participate in. Even if you kill me, I will not tell you.”
“You murdered our entire ship’s soldier, leaving them dead and crippled. “We were planning to attack this camp at night,”Kant said hatefully. “Tell me, what reason do you think we have to not participate? “The people hiding behind the scenes didn’t give us an explanation for the sinking of the ship, so we won’t let it go.”
Frey was stunned by Kant’s imposing manner and couldn’t speak for a moment.
“It’s fine if you don’t give us the whereabouts of the remaining people.”Bunduk stared straight at Frey, he threatened, “Then we’ll take you with us to meet the snake-woman you mentioned near the volcano. We’ll go up layer by layer to see who can last longer.”
“The thing that seals your spiritual power isn’t a spell, but a new potion we’ve developed. The reason you’ve been unconscious for so long is probably because it was injected into your body.”Abel stood where he was, he said nonchalantly, “If we need to inject this potion into your body every day, we don’t know what the side effects will be.”
Frey’s eyes wavered. If he completely lost his magick power because of this mission, it was unimaginable what his life would be like.
“Okay.”Frey nodded sadly. “I can give you the list of people I have. However, I have two requirements. First, find a ship immediately and send me out of the island. Second, promise to give me the antidote.”
“Okay.”Kant agreed happily. A triumphant smile appeared on his face.
That night, after receiving the list of people Frey wrote, the three people gave Frey a tube of the fake antidote and let him board the first ship in the morning and leave the island.
“Frey’s information is really detailed.”Bunduk sized up the list and commented.
“He even wrote down his address. It’s far beyond our expectations.”Abel shrugged and said.
Kant picked up the list given by Frey and compared it with the list given by the Dragon clan a few days ago. He replied, “Don’t expect him to give us any clues about important people. It’s just to get rid of us and give up his comrades.”
“Yes, it’s true.”Abel curled his lips and said.
“Strange, the list of names of the Dragon clan seems to be true…”Kant said in puzzlement after browsing through the two lists.
“Really?”Bunduk took the list and also read it. After a while, he raised his head and said, “It seems that some of the names are duplicates.”
“The Dragon clan is indeed more informed than us.”Abel glanced at the side and commented.
“How are these people now?”Kant asked Bunduk.
Bunduk was at a loss because of this sudden question. He scratched the back of his head and replied awkwardly, “I haven’t heard anything about them.”
“Most likely, they have been controlled by the open forces in the town,”Abel speculated.
“Frey’s list only mentions the network of the dark forces in the town. The central ranks of the dark forces are still concentrated near the fire,”Bunduk said.
Chapter 803: The Elf who disappeared in the middle of the night
“You’re right.”Kant thought for a moment and nodded. “The dragon race is too cunning.”
“When the forces in the town find us, do we need to hand over this list?”Abel asked Kant.
“Yes, this list doesn’t mean much to us. It can be used as a door-knocking brick to remind the forces in the town to cooperate with us,”Kant ordered.
“Yes.”Abel nodded.
“The mission this time has been successfully completed. Everyone has worked hard. Go back and rest,”Kant looked around the entire tent and ordered the soldiers.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”After receiving the order, the soldier immediately left the tent and rushed back to rest.
“Your Majesty, you have worked hard too.”Abel bowed and said, “Let me and Commander Bunduk be responsible for escorting you back to the camp.”
“Okay,”Kant agreed and walked out of the camp.
On the way back to the camp, Kant asked Bunduk about the training of the CARADIA soldier in recent days.
“The daily training of the soldier is basically the same as when they were in the military barrack. Your Majesty, don’t worry.”Bunduk sent Kant to the door of the camp and answered politely.
“Yes. During daily training, you must not slack off,”Kant instructed.
After leaving these words, Kant instructed Bunduk and Abel to go back and rest. He walked into the tent himself.
“Let’s go.”After seeing Kant back to the camp, Bunduk stood up and greeted Abel who was still half-kneeling on the ground.
The two of them walked back together.
“It’s been hard on you today.”Bunduk put his arm around Abel’s shoulder and said to him, “We were almost unable to help.”
“The Magic Circle is only the first line of defense. I didn’t expect this shadow something to be terrified before he could reach you,”Abel smiled and declined.
“I didn’t expect this shadow something to be so timid. When I heard that he was going to attack Raphael, I was also extremely nervous,”Bunduk said.
“Is he going to attack Raphael?”Abel turned to ask Bunduk.
At that time, Abel was fully focused on preparing the magic circle. He did not have the extra energy to pay attention to the conversation in the camp.
“Ah, no…”Bunduk knew that he had let the cat out of the bag. He smiled awkwardly and denied it. “It was just the atmosphere when the two of them were talking
“They were too nervous. It seemed like the battle was about to break out at any moment.”
Judging from the words left behind by shadow something before he left, he was indeed prepared to make a move against Raphael the next time. The style of the dark forces was really too ruthless.
“I see.”Abel lowered his head and said in deep thought, “If a fight really broke out, Raphael would have no chance of winning. Fortunately, he did not say anything dangerous in a moment of impulse.”
“This time, Raphael did quite well. “Don’t worry about these details,”Bunduk replied. “The people from shadow stream are still too dangerous for him. “Now that the dark forces can no longer do anything to him beyond us, he can be considered safe.”
“Yes.”Abel nodded. “I hope he can have a good dream tonight.”
At that moment, the two of them happened to pass by Raphael’s tent. Seeing that the candlesticks inside were still lit, bunduk said in puzzlement, “It has already been two hours since the incident. Raphael can’t still be awake, right?”
Abel shook his head and said calmly, “He seemed to have a habit of sleeping with the lights on in the past.”
“This habit is not good for the body. Although the tent is ventilated, the smoke from the candlesticks is not suitable for people who sleep,”Bunduk said worriedly.
“I think so too. I’ve told him countless times, but he still can’t change it. I can only ask the patrolling soldier to go in and blow out the candlesticks when they pass by his tent,”Abel said helplessly.
“The soldier should be too busy tonight.”Bunduk looked around and said, “Let us go in this time.”
“Okay.”Abel nodded. Then, he gently opened the door curtain with Bunduk and walked in.
The moment he entered the tent, Abel felt a little strange. Several candlesticks in the room were lit.
With this thought in mind, Abel no longer paid attention to the candlesticks. He walked straight to Raphael’s bed.
He found a letter beside Raphael’s pillow.
“Hey, where are you going?”Bunduk caught up with Abel’s footsteps and chased after him. He asked in a low voice, “What is this? What does ‘sorry’mean?”
“Not good.”A trace of fear crawled through Abel’s heart. He trembled as he said, “Quick… find out where Raphael went.”
Bunduk also sensed that something was wrong. He hurriedly ran out of the tent and informed the patrolling soldier to help find Raphael’s tracks.
Because of this alarm, the entire military barrack became brightly lit again.
The sound of footsteps coming and going woke up the sleeping soldier. Everyone cursed as they put on their coats and walked out of the camp to take a look. After hearing the news of Raphael’s disappearance from the other soldier’s mouth, their expressions became grim.
“Commander Bunduk!”A soldier ran in front of Bunduk and Abel and reported urgently.
“Is there any news?”Bunduk asked nervously.
“The soldier who woke up at night said that he saw captain Raphael walking towards the shore in a single piece of clothing.”The soldier took a deep breath and said.
“When? Why didn’t he stop Raphael!”Abel asked.
“About an hour ago, he wasn’t sure that it was captain Raphael. After hearing the news of his disappearance, he rushed over to report this news to us,”the soldier explained in detail.
“Quickly send someone to the beach to take a look,”Bunduk ordered.
Abel took the lead and rushed out of the camp, running towards the shore. Bunduk watched his back and followed closely behind. However, in front of the spell-casting Bunduk, he was left far behind.
“Abel! Wait!”Bunduk shouted.
Abel did not respond.
When they reached the shore, Abel was looking for Raphael on the shore that the soldier mentioned. He was surprised to find a group of dwarves in uniform. They were carrying a white stretcher.
“Wait, who are you?”Abel called out to them and asked.
“An employee of the harbor,”the dwarf who was in charge of commanding answered indifferently. “What do you want?”
“I’m Looking for an elf. His name is Raphael. Have you… Seen Him?”After seeing the human figure covered in white cloth on the stretcher, Abel’s eyes began to turn red, but he still insisted on finishing his sentence.
“Elf?”The few dwarves carrying the stretcher looked at each other and whispered.
The dwarf commanded his subordinates to put down the stretcher. He looked up at Abel and said, “The elf you’re looking for might be him.”
Chapter 804: unexpected death
When Bunduk arrived, he saw Abel kneeling beside Raphael’s corpse and crying.
Bunduk stood silently at the side, staring at the pitch-black sea. A cold wind seemed to blow in his heart.
“This elf rushed onto a ship and said that he was looking for a shadow stallion. “Because that shadow stallion was also sent by someone from your tribe of elves, we thought that there was something to discuss. So we brought him in front of the shadow rat. Unexpectedly, the two of them started fighting before they could even speak. In the end, the two of them fell from the side of the ship. “Our men didn’t arrive in time. By the time we found a way to pick up the elf from the bottom of the sea, he had already stopped breathing.”Abel’s emotions were too out of control, the dwarf crew could only explain to the relatively calm Bunduk.
“Then, what about the Shadow Demon?”After hearing the whole story, tears couldn’t help but trickle down from the corners of Bunduk’s eyes. He asked the crew with a choked voice.
“So far, we’ve only found this body. “The salvage work is still ongoing,”the dwarf said apologetically. “This matter is partly our fault. “As for the exact compensation, we’ll contact you tomorrow.”
After leaving these words, the dwarf commander led the rest of the dwarf crew back to the harbor.
“It’s impossible that he doesn’t know that he can’t defeat Shadow Stalker,”Abel said with a trembling voice.
Thinking of the suicide note Raphael left by his pillow, it was obvious that he wanted to die.
“We pushed him too hard.”Bunduk sat down beside the stretcher. He looked at Abel’s face, which had turned blue from suffocation, and said softly.
“It’s all my fault. I should have spent more time with him like what Lord Kant said,”Abel cried out in pain. “I knew that he was a person who easily let his imagination run wild.”
Bunduk recalled every smile that Raphael had given him when he was alive. Tears poured down his face.
All these years of fighting on the battlefield did not make him disregard the existence of life. On the contrary, he respected every life.
When he thought of the warmth and affirmation that this pale face had once brought to others, Bunduk felt as if a fishbone was stuck in his throat. He could not speak.
“Let’s go. We’ll bring him back,”Bunduk said with difficulty as he looked at Raphael, who was lying on the ground.
Abel looked back at him and agreed, “Alright.”
The two of them carried the stretcher and slowly walked towards the camp.
When the soldier who was still searching the coast saw this scene, they all leaned over. When they saw Raphael’s cold corpse, the atmosphere instantly became quiet. They could only silently follow behind Bunduk and Raphael. Sobbing sounds came from the crowd.
Kant was standing at the entrance of the camp at this moment, waiting for the news from the coast. He was holding Raphael’s will tightly in his hand. At that moment, he did not have the broad aura that he usually had. His figure, which was walking back and forth, appeared a little thin in the winter wind.
When the silent figures of Bunduk’s group appeared in his line of sight, Kant’s figure paused, and then his shoulders collapsed.
“King Kant.”Bunduk and Abel put down the stretcher, squatted down in front of Kant, and bowed.
“What happened?”Kant’s tone was ice-cold. What no one saw was that his hands were trembling.
“Raphael went to find Yingyu. During the struggle, the two of them lost their footing and fell into the deep sea.”Bunduk’s lips tightened as he explained.
“Lost their footing?”Kant squatted down and covered his face with his hands. A muffled voice came out. “I think Raphael did it on purpose.”
Abel also covered his eyes with his hand to prevent tears from flowing out.
“This winter has been so long…”Bunduk looked at the soldier’s mournful expression behind him. He recalled the scene when he heard the death of the Caradia soldier in the military barrack. A chill spread through his entire body.
That night, Kant and the others held a funeral for Raphael. Raphael’s urn was brought by Abel. Because he said that he wanted to bring him home with him.
Because of this sudden incident, the atmosphere among the elven soldier became gloomy.
The soldier who besieged Raphael in the dining hall a few days ago also appeared to be in low spirits.
During this period of time, the CARADIA soldier took up most of the tasks in the military barrack. He wanted to relieve some of the pressure on the depressed elven soldier.
“The Messenger sent me a message saying that the Dragon tribe wants to meet us.”Kant sat at the desk and said to Bunduk and Abel who were sitting across from him.
“Then do we need to go to the volcano?”Abel asked.
“Yes, but this time, the dragon clan will send someone to pick us up. It will save us the trouble along the way,”Kant explained calmly. “I have already written a reply to them and promised to meet them this time.”
“As expected, the Dragon Clan is the first to make a move,”Bunduk commented. “How far has their network expanded to allow them to always have the initiative?”
“The Dragon clan probably invited us over this time in order to find out about the recent series of accidents. I don’t expect to get any information from them,”Kant said indifferently.
Obviously, he didn’t have much expectation for this meeting.
“Are there still no movements from the forces in dwarf town?”Abel asked.
“For the time being, no one has taken the initiative to look for us,”Bunduk replied. “It is said that the corpse of shadow rat is in the mortuary of the harbor
“No one has claimed it for several days. “It seems that he is only playing the lowest role in the dark forces.”
“We don’t have many clues at the moment…”Abel sighed.
“Let’s take it one step at a time,”Kant said. “This time, our troops are staying at the foot of the volcano. We can go and see who is the snake-woman who is in charge of contacting the Shadow Dragon. By then, we might have new clues.”
“Indeed.”. “We have been staying at the edge of this island. We are not very well-informed about all kinds of information.”Bunduk nodded. “This time, we can go to the volcano and stay in a different environment. We can inquire about the situation on this island.”
“The people sent by the Dragon tribe will probably come to pick us up in three days. At that time, this camp will have to be abandoned.”Kant thought for a while, he told the two of them, “Recently, the atmosphere in the team hasn’t been very good. You two captains need to pay more attention. Help the soldier walk out of the negative impact of the incident.”
“Most of them feel guilty towards Raphael. For the time being, I guess they won’t be able to resolve this knot in their hearts,”Bunduk said with a dull look in his eyes.
“What’s there to feel guilty about?”Abel sighed softly. “Raphael only went to the world with ‘gods’just as he thought.”
