The defeated saint is also on the way to tame the evil god today

　Ten minutes later, on the street.

　"Is this right here?"

　Xing Mo stood on the street, his eyes indifferently sweeping over Ping Ping.

　Unremarkable building.

　Beside her, Angelica was holding an umbrella for her, while Albus, wearing a hood, was alert and looking around with sharp eyes.

　"Yes, the extraordinary reaction came from this side," Angelica also looked around, "There doesn't seem to be anything particularly wrong..."

　"Could it be a false alarm?" Albus whispered beside him.

　"No, the White Tower will only report a low threat level. It's unlikely to report a high or false alarm." Xingmo shook his head. "Come on, do you have any ideas?"

　Angelica and Albus looked at each other and quickly realized that this was Xingmo testing them.

　"Hmm...how about trying the Dagger of Truth?" Angelica said after thinking for a moment.

　"Yeah." Xing Mo nodded.

　So, Angelica took out her wand, tapped it lightly in the air a few times, and grabbed a dagger in her hand.

　She thrust the dagger into the void, and rays of light quickly flowed across the surface of her pupils.

　Half a minute later, she loosened her grip, the dagger scattered, and she shook her head slightly.

　"No, there's absolutely no trace left in the netherworld. No demigod-level reaction has passed through this block in two hours."

　"High-ranking beings usually cover their tracks, especially in the netherworld," Xingmo nodded slightly and turned to look at Albus, "Albus, what about you?"

　"Is it possible to make a judgment through communication with the spirit?" Albus' voice was low but clear.

　"Let's give it a try." Xing Mo nodded.

　Albus drew the silver knife from his waist, gently scratched his wrist, and threw it into the rain.

　The blood exploded in the air, turning into a light red mist, and then gradually transitioned to grayish white.

　At the same time, Albus' pupils turned gray. He whispered a few words into the air, then closed his eyes, allowing the gray mist to surround him.

　Hmm, quite an impressive psychic skill, using blood as a magic circle to cast spells quickly. He must have been drinking special elixirs for a long time, which allowed the components in his blood to quickly condense into a magic circle in the air...

　Xing Mo nodded approvingly. It had to be said that this move was indeed brilliant. It greatly reduced the time and cost required for the spiritual ceremony, thereby improving efficiency.

　However, this doesn't work either.

　"The spirits said they didn't see anything," Albus's eyes faded and he shook his head, "but they said that a very powerful pressure briefly bloomed nearby, so they were dispersed for a while."

　"It's an auxiliary clue, but it's not enough to lead us to find the source of the anomaly." Xing Mo nodded slightly.

　"Could it be that some high-level being just happened to be passing by?" Angelica scratched her head. "Hmm..."

　"We can't rule out this possibility, but even so, we need to find out what the vibrations it causes mean," Xing Mo said.

　Xingmo took a step forward, drew out his wand, and grabbed the air with his hand.

　"Traces of the spirit world can be erased, and memories of the lower world can be tampered with. This is not difficult for high-level beings, and can even be considered standard."

　"However, there is only one trace that no one can erase."

　"That's the string."

　"Om——"

　Xingmo played the strings lightly in the air, and one different string after another lit up in the air, flashing a faint light.

　All natural phenomena are nothing but the aftermath of string vibrations, and based on the aftermath, we can naturally trace back to the string that initially vibrated.

　"On a rainy day, there are water strings and wind strings," Xing Mo looked up. "Use your spiritual power to capture these two strings, and then eliminate them. What else do you see?"

　Angelica and Albus immediately closed their eyes, used their spiritual power to capture the strings that had vibrated around them, and excluded the water strings and wind strings as Xingmo said.

　Then, they discovered—

　“There’s nothing here…”

　It seems that only the water strings and wind strings have vibrated here.

　"That's right," Xing Mo nodded slightly, "This means that the being that caused the shockwaves had already taken anti-reconnaissance measures and only used water and wind strings."

　"However, even water and wind strings can leave traces."

　"For example—"

　Xingmo tapped the air lightly with her magic wand, and a string of water vibrated, rapidly emitting ripples.

　The ripples gathered with the wind and finally condensed on the third floor of an unremarkable townhouse across the street.

　"He used the water string as cover to hide his body in the heavy rain, and then used the wind string to pass through the rain, and then..." Xingmo pointed to a window, "He went straight in there, and there is no sign of him coming out yet."

　As soon as the words fell, Angelica and Albus immediately took action. They quickly crossed the street and rushed directly into the first floor of the townhouse.

　""

　Seeing them moving so quickly, Xingmo was not in a hurry to catch up.

　She turned her head and looked at an ordinary beggar on the roadside, watching him holding a gold ingot in ecstasy.

　In fact, there are more than just water strings and wind strings vibrating in the air.

　Xingmo sensed the breath of fate.

　The aura was not high-profile, far below that of a demigod, probably around the third string, which was exactly the minimum standard where fire, darkness, and stars intersected.

　A being who can manipulate the strings of fate appeared in the academy... and secretly revealed his existence to Xingmo...

　His way of using fate was to make the wind and water strings that would not be noticed inadvertently reveal the demigod-level signal, so that the White Tower could capture it.

　捉。

　This was a gesture, a show of goodwill - because only Xingmo could perceive fate.

　"Giving gold ingots to beggars..." Xingmo muttered softly.

　Frowning, she looked suddenly towards the building on the side, towards the white cloud on the roof.

　There's no one there.

　Xingmo stared at it for a while before twirling her wand and following Angelica and Albus's lead.

　After she disappeared into the street, the priest in a black robe with a golden cross on his chest walked back to the edge of the building with a kind and indifferent look in his eyes.

　"Albus, what do you think is hiding in this room? A blood-sucking monster? A murderous ghost?"

　Angelica muttered as she turned the stairs and finally reached the third floor of the townhouse.

　Albus's pace was a little slower than hers, and he was very careful to cast protective spells on every door he passed along the way, trying to protect the residents as much as possible.

　"If it's a demigod, and he knows how to conceal his tracks, then it can't be one of those wild supernatural species," Albus said, holding the silver blade at his waist. "But I don't think it's human. If a new demigod is born among humans, the whole of Vesta will hear about it."

　"Maybe they're just being low-key..." Angelica muttered, "Come on, get ready to break the door..."

　Angelica grabbed the umbrella and gently twisted the buckle on the paratrooper, and a light puff of steam blew out of the umbrella.

　She played the strings with her umbrella, and the purple gravity lingered on the umbrella surface, making the originally ordinary umbrella look like a sword.

　"Go ahead, I'll cover you." Angelica nodded at Albus.

　Albus grasped the silver knife at his waist, took a deep breath, and then slammed towards the door -

　"boom!"

　The moment the door was knocked open, a bloody smell hit me in the face. In the hazy black room, a dark shadow was squatting in front of a corpse, gnawing at its internal organs.

　When the shadow turned around, Albus only had time to see his pair of dark blue eyes before the mask of the mechanical structure closed, covering the shadow's face.

　"Click——"

　The black shadow attacked at a speed that was imperceptible to the naked eye. His figure flashed a few times in the darkness, and almost immediately he turned the situation of being attacked into an active attack!

　Albus swung the silver knife violently, and a grayish-white substance gushed out from the blade, dragged by him into a white blade light——

　"clang----"

　The impact caused an explosion, and Albus flew backwards. Angelica dodged and was not knocked down by him.

　She looked up and saw the black shadow wearing mechanical armor leap forward and chase after her in a flash.

　"retreat!"

　Angelica thrust out her umbrella, and the umbrella opened up. Steam gushed out from the keel, and purple gravity hit the shadow like a wall.

　The black shadow swung his hand, and a dark blue claw burst out from the mechanical structure, grabbing towards the gravitational wall.

　"Sizzle!"

　The gravity was torn apart, and the turbulence caused the black shadow's posture to slow down slightly, almost causing it to fall to the ground.

　He quickly regained his balance and was about to attack Angelica again when he suddenly turned his head and ran towards the window.

　"call out----"

　Angelica couldn't even see his movements clearly. She only felt his body flash, and then heard the sound of the window breaking.

　"Pfft!"

　She immediately chased after him towards the window, but froze beside it—

　——The window was not broken at all!

　At the same time, the black shadow wearing mechanical armor had flown a long distance and was leaping between the eaves of the southern city.

　He used all four of his limbs, and the mechanisms on his armor kept changing, emitting a faint blue light, which increased his speed like a gust of wind.

　After running a few hundred meters, the black shadow was about to slow down when he heard a faint whisper coming from in front of him:

　"You run very fast."

　He turned around and saw a girl with flowing black hair standing by the eaves not far away, with an indifferent look in her eyes.

　Just as the shadow was about to escape, the girl raised her wand, and six water strings revolved around it.

　"Om——"

　The rain around the black shadow instantly turned into a cage, suddenly collapsing inward, and waves of light overlapped and pressed down on him.

　His movements paused briefly, the structure of the mechanical armor rapidly changing, and a dark blue light suddenly exploded -

　"boom!"

　Seeing the water prison being blasted into a sky full of water droplets, Xing Mo calmly played the string again. The raindrops instantly turned into ice spikes, densely packed and stabbing towards the black shadow -

　"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-"

　The black shadow raised one hand to block the ice spikes, and with the other hand and both feet, he grabbed the eaves and attacked Xingmo at a terrifying speed.

　When he was about ten meters away from Xingmo, he suddenly leaped up, and the mechanism on his arm burst out with light claws, slashing towards Xingmo——

　"boom----"

　Xingmo leaned back lightly to avoid it, and in an instant he crossed paths with the black shadow.

　At this moment, she saw the black shadow clearly: a mechanical armor interwoven with silver and black, a helmet covering the entire face, with only the pupils flashing with a faint blue light.

　Most importantly, Xingmo saw the features on the helmet—

　——Long and thin ears.

　"Dark elf."

　Xing Mo said lightly, and swung his wand. The water blade whistled and tore through the air, instantly hitting the dark elf's chest.

　"Pfft!"

　The dark elf flew out and fell on the roof several times in a row, then disappeared in a flash.

　His figure flashed quickly

　Even Xing Mo couldn't see the speed clearly, as if he had directly entered another space and jumped to another point.

　No, not another space.

　Xing Mo turned around suddenly and saw an arc appear in the rain curtain in an instant - that was the arc drawn by the dark elf passing through the rainstorm.

　He was walking from the real dimension, but he was walking very fast, so fast that it was imperceptible to the naked eye.

　Driven by the wind string, the dark elf suddenly attacked Xingmo, and the sharp claws on his arms emitted a blue halo.
