Chapter 106 Demon Warlock (Seventh of Twenty Chapters Since Launch)
"Let's get out of here first."

"It seems someone is coming?"

“No, it’s too late,” Nems said repeatedly.

Then they saw a man in black robes.

The man in the black robe was wearing a white ghost mask.

The black robe he wore completely covered every inch of his body.

"Is it really alright for you to poach people from my Floating World Society like this?" The man in black robes stood not far away, his feet invisible, and he floated over like a ghost.

Between his words, a faint, subtle power began to emanate.

Behind him, a shadow darker than the night writhed, and then, using the shadow as its vessel, a shadow demon appeared in the arena.

“A demon warlock?” Nemus raised an eyebrow.

Demonology Warlock, one of the spellcasters, is a class derived from the original magician.

However, mages serve demons and obtain demonic spells, while demon sorcerers try to cooperate with demons or enslave them.

Their greedy plundering stemmed from the power of demons.

Taking advantage of the darkness, the Shadow Demon flashed by and leaped a distance to appear beside Nemus.

The shadow spread rapidly, about to completely envelop Nemus in the next moment.

As the person behind the Floating World Society, he established the Floating World Society, secretly controlled it, and used the Floating World Society to refine golden medicine.

He was already quite annoyed that the Floating World Society had been exposed and the refining of the Golden Medicine had been halted due to some unexpected circumstances.

As a result, even the little bit of wealth he left behind was being eyed by someone.

"Die!" he said coldly, the dark aura emanating from the demon warlock twisting and turning.

However, the next moment, a beam of light flashed by.

"Aaaaaah!" The Shadow Fiend howled in agony. The dark shadows dissipated, and the Shadow Fiend quickly retreated using the darkness as cover.

Nemus pointed his finger slightly, and a ray of light emanated from his fingertip.

Divine Art: Divine Light Finger!
The Holy and Demonic factions are mutually restraining.

Whoever has higher stats and stronger traits will be the dominant one in the relationship of restraint.

Nemus frowned slightly as he looked into the distance at the demon warlock who was about to summon more demons.

The commotion here is quite significant, and a large number of clergy are already heading this way.

The demon warlock on the other side also noticed the arrival of a large number of church personnel.

"I'll let you off the hook for today." With that, the demon warlock vanished into the shadows and disappeared into the distance.

Nemus sensed the departing demon warlock but did not pursue him, after all, he still had these newly recruited followers.

If we chase after them, these people will be too easily caught by the church.

“Let’s leave too!” Nemus said, then activated the feature – Stealth Aggregation (Old Bones Tavern): You and your chosen people will become stealthy and difficult to detect during the aggregation process.

As the special ability took effect, Nemus led the group in a quick turn in another direction, then circled around and returned to Tailwind Town.

Inside an abandoned clock tower in the southern district, Naims stopped and set up a temporary meeting place, planning to find a better location later as the area developed.

Meanwhile, the village keeper and Lia, who had been waiting there for a long time, had already tidied up the place a bit.

After Nemus returned, Lydia immediately abandoned her father and rushed over. They had done some testing in the wild before; they found that if Lydia didn't stay with Angel A for a long time, she would exhibit whale-like characteristics and transform into a whale-woman once more.

Nemus was now certain that what was attracting Lydia was not Angel A's brain-dead soul, but his body, which had undergone some unknown change in the astral plane.

After all, he's currently playing as a substitute.

The alchemist was completely captivated by Lydia at that moment.

"It's perfect!" His eyes were full of inquiry as he looked at Leah, as if he wanted to completely dissect her.

This infatuated state aroused the strong vigilance of the village guard, who quickly came to his daughter's side and looked at the alchemist warily.

"Master." The alchemist called him "Master" with exceptional ease. If he had known that such a perfect combination of superior and inferior existed in this fictional agreement, why would he have resisted? He would have followed Nemus long ago.

"I am Becky Meddo, and I am willing to serve you." The alchemist at this moment only wanted to show his loyalty as soon as possible and then join the research on Leah.

"Tell me about Lydia's current situation first," Nemus said, not in a hurry for Becky to take over, but instead asking about the specifics.

At present, alchemists are the individuals most likely to know the truth.

Becky then gave a brief explanation of the alchemist and the special nature of Leah.

Alchemist is a spellcaster class derived from the Shaping system.

However, in reality, the lower limit of Shaping spells is relatively high, but the upper limit is far lower than that of Alchemists.

In many things, an alchemist is actually necessary.

They can assist in completing many rituals and improve various studies.

It can be said that any alchemist who can grow normally and doesn't ruin himself is a valuable talent.

Alchemists are among the lowest-ranking extraordinary professions.

Without a certain understanding of the world order, alchemy is a scam.

Terms like various elements, ether, and astral planes require accurate conceptual understanding to communicate effectively.

Furthermore, communication alone is not enough to obtain sufficient power. In this process, it is also necessary to establish one's own model of the universe's operation, and through various calculations, to know the operational trajectory of a certain element.

For example, the giant earth hand used by the alchemist earlier connected with the ether layer, using it as a medium to link with the earth elemental plane.

The positions of the elemental plane and the material plane are not fixed, and human beings cannot observe that far from the material plane. Therefore, he can only use external factors such as celestial phenomena, time, and geographical location to perform complex calculations to determine the position of the elemental plane.

If he miscalculates even the slightest position during this process, the image he conjures with his spiritual power will be invalid, and he will be unable to gain power by moving from below to above.

The conflict of images may even lead to a conflict of forces, resulting in a backlash that could ultimately lead to one's own demise.

There is even this saying about alchemy among the common people.

Alchemy doesn't need your complete ignorance; if you don't understand it at all, alchemy is just a facade and won't have any effect.

What's worrisome is that state of half-understanding, where one can communicate with certain cosmic images but lacks correct motion calculations.

This kind of alchemy, on the contrary, will become a disaster.

The more accurate our understanding of the universe and the more precise our calculations, the less backlash we will experience.

Even when a Blackrock alchemist evokes the imagery of a Steel race, the spirit can withstand it without damage.

However, if absolute accuracy and precision are not possible, then it is necessary to act as a medium to withstand the pressure.

Leah's current situation makes her the perfect medium.
