Chapter 840

Author: Dreamy Fire
Felix smiled apologetically. "I'm sorry, but my phone has no signal. I promise to come and pay you back when it's back."

When he came out of the supermarket, there were a few more people around Lena. They took the initiative to help Felix hold his bags.

The enthusiasm, at least in their eyes, seemed genuine. Honestly, in today's society, it was a miracle that neighbors would even help each other, especially since Damien was a useless nobody.

When they got home, Lena and a few of the townsfolk cleaned the house again without Felix asking. Soon, the house looked brand new.

After a while, someone came over with a lot of food, cigarettes, alcohol, and many other necessities.

"This is too much!" Felix said, a little embarrassed.

Lena smiled. "Damien, our town has changed dramatically now. To tell you the truth, as long as you don't leave town from now on, you don't have to spend a single penny on your future expenses."

Felix pretended to be ecstatic. "Is that true? Aunt Lena, that's

    The six real Dragonspines in Felix's body trembled, and his expression changed wildly. This was the first time this was happening, and he was a little scared. He quickly activated Dragons Destroyer, but the trembling didn't stop."What's going on?" Despite the fact that the Dragonspines were trembling within him, his body felt completely normal. After trying various skills, nothing changed, and Felix could only head outside.If he continued like this, he would have to terminate the mission—he didn't want to risk his life. If he couldn't solve it himself, he could only consult Gerald. However, there wasn't a signal in town. The only way he could contact Gerald was to leave Seapoint. But Felix didn't expect that as soon as he left the house, the Dragonspines stopped trembling, as if it were all an illusion.He had a thought. To verify it, he went back inside the house. After a few minutes, the Dragonspines started trembling again."Was there something wrong with the house?"Feli

    During the day, Felix wandered around the town alone and saw several trucks entering. However, he didn't head over to talk. He only watched from a distance.Someone from the headquarters had taken the note he had hidden the night before. Felix couldn't find anything strange during the whole process.…In a city over 31 miles away from Seapoint, Xena was worried after reading the note brought back by the driver.Felix had snuck in, but why was everything getting weirder? Xena couldn't help much now. All she could do was contact Seven and tell him what Felix had said in the letter. "My Dragonspines are trembling, but I don't know why. I cannot contact anyone, too."…Another night passed, and Felix grew more irritable. As long as he was in the house, the Dragonspines didn't stop trembling. Now, he could only hope that his fellow apprentices could find a way to bring him Gerald's explanation.Around 10:00 am, the dogs in his area started barking. Felix went outside and saw a co

    Felix remained composed, but his heart sank. There were usually only stray animals in Seapoint during the day. It was impossible to see any human beings in broad daylight.It would've seemed normal if a stranger had stumbled upon the town. However, this was Augustus standing before him."Oh, Mr. Docker! I was just taking a stroll. It gets too boring to stay in the house."Augustus still had a smile on his face. Despite the warm sunshine, Felix felt chills run down his spine."The town has changed a lot in recent years! I'll take you on a proper tour. There are some places that you can't fully appreciate at night."With this invitation, Felix felt like he was left in a tough spot. In fact, he had also guessed the situation. Immediately, he dropped the act and said coldly, "Since it's come to this, let me be frank. I'm a Dragon Knight sent by the headquarters. "Mr. Docker, it's best for you to surrender and confess. Cooperate, and you might be treated more leniently. Otherwise,

    Just as Felix's attack was about to land, there was a muffled sound. All of a sudden, another person appeared beside Augustus.This man was around 30 years old and wore jeans, a white shirt, and a pair of glasses. He easily dissipated the energy that was thrown by Felix."Greetings, my lord!" Augustus fell to the ground, and his expression turned respectful. There was even a hint of fascination in his eyes."What is this? Why did you wake me up?" Augustus quickly pointed at Felix and said, "I'm so sorry, my lord. Someone snuck in! I tried to handle it myself but couldn't hurt him. It seems like he has something protecting his soul."Huh? The man looked at Felix, the surprise clear on his face."How interesting! This is the first time I've met someone who has knowledge in this area. You're quite suited to be my guardian!" he said while laughing.The next moment, the man pointed two index fingers at Felix. "You fool!"A green light flashed, and a four-armed, two-headed monster a

    Back in Gray City, Felix was still a little overwhelmed. If it hadn't been for the flute that Billy gave him, he probably would've died in Seapoint that day.However, had he not been sent there, the situation in Seapoint wouldn't have been solved. If it had been another agent who was sent there, they would've been changed and become a part of Seapoint, or they would've died.Felix glanced out the window before deciding to take a shower. All of a sudden, his body trembled, and he quickly looked at the clock on the wall. It was only 4:30 pm.He turned to look outside the window again, and it was pitch black. He thought carefully of when he sat in the living room. The sunlight had been penetrating into the house—so when did it become dark?"Such a weak man. Are you even worthy of having the true Dragonspine?" There was a sudden voice behind Felix, and all the lights in the house were unexpectedly turned on. Another man appeared on the couch where Felix had been sitting prior.It wa

    After Felix hung up the phone, the bitterness on his face grew. Since he had merged with the sixth Dragonspine and had shown his power in Astoria, even Selmer from Elders' Council took the initiative to surrender.That incident had boosted Felix's confidence. However, the unexpected mission at Seapoint and the appearance of the cloaked man brought him back to reality. He still felt helpless.All of a sudden, Wayne from Obsidian Auction called. "Mr. Williams, there's news on the furnace you're looking for." Oh? Finally, Felix felt like he regained his luck. Although he already had the furnace given by Gage, comparing the two wouldn't hurt.Besides, according to the medical book given by Gerald, refining the pills and elixir might cause the furnace to explode. So, it was better for Felix to make sure he had a spare."When shall we meet?""Now! The consignor is extremely cautious and unwilling to head to Obsidian Auction to trade. He has prepared a place for you to meet."The meet

    The old man stood there with a sincere smile. It made Felix upset. Why didn't the old man attack him? He felt weirded out by it.The man burst out laughing. "I was just kidding, so don't take it so seriously. Of course, I won't sell such a treasure for ten million dollars!"With that, Felix heaved a sigh of relief. Yes, this seemed to be on the right track."I heard from Mr. Sutcliff from Obsidian Auction that you have superb medical skills. Such an opportunity is worth a lot of money, so the ten million dollars is an honest deal. However, I would have to add your favor to the deal. How about that?"So, that was it. Felix immediately agreed, "Deal!"Once the transaction was agreed upon, the old man waited for Felix to claim the furnace with his blood. Then, the two exchanged a few words before leaving.On the way back, Felix was the one driving while Selmer sat in the passenger seat. Selmer sat looking puzzled. "No one is following us! Mr. Zeller, to be honest, this might be

    "I've made up my mind. Let's not talk about it anymore. I'll have lunch with you all at noon, and then, I'll leave," Felix stated.Just as he finished speaking, Billy walked in. "I heard you're leaving?" Felix glanced at Nala, who stood by the door. He guessed that it was Nala who told Billy."Yes. Join us for lunch." Billy sighed. "Well, lunch is fine. But you look horrible. Are you sure you want to leave?"Felix's expression darkened immediately. After what happened in Seapoint, he was really worried when Billy said that he looked horrible. "Don't be so nonsensical," Felix said. Billy shook his head with a sigh. "Forget it. You'll regret it if you don't listen to your old friend. The cause and effect are hard to say. Anyway, I've advised you, so I'm no longer responsible for anything."With that, Felix didn't know how to react before finally calling Billy back with a sigh. "What if I don't leave?"Billy turned around with a chuckle. "See? When you said you don't want to

    The guide said, "This is where the selected contestants rest. The yard is huge and has everything you need. As long as you don't leave this yard, you're free to move around. I'll bring you to your room now."The yard looked huge, with fixtures of bridges and flowing rivers. Felix even passed by a fake mountain. It was large enough for hundreds of people to climb, standing thousands of feet tall and looked quite majestically.No one on Earth or Aquamarinus could have built such a luxurious residence. Felix could even see a bar and massage parlor, showing how indispensable technology was in the universe. His room was luxurious, around 2000 square feet, and was decorated with traditional but modern touches. "This is your room. I'll take my leave now, goodbye." The young man left with a bow. Felix turned around and stood on the patio. Outside his room was a large lake, with even fish swimming inside."A new neighbor? Did you just arrive today?" The sudden voice came from the patio

    Felix arrived at the location of one of Nine Flames, where the guards instantly collapsed, their eyes rolling back as they fainted.By now, darkness had arrived. He walked forward without any hesitation, his right hand touching the flame.There was no need for any special tools. The flame simply vanished, and only Felix knew that it was absorbed in an instant by his Starmark.With the disappearance of the flames, people in many places immediately dropped to their knees.The light that should have lasted throughout the night vanished, and the darkness of Desolated Lands descended almost instantly. Every light went out in an instant.Screams echoed everywhere, and panic spread like wildfire. Even though their loved ones were close by, they couldn't see them with their eyes and could only communicate through voice.Scenes like this were unfolding in many places, even in Cloud City."It's really started," Eira said. She was in Cloud City. Although Luigi was standing on her left, h

    Despite Thiago's murderous glare and overwhelming killing intent, Felix wasn't scared. In fact, it made him smile.Due to the unique trait of the Dragon Rebirth, his opponent had to harbor a true desire to kill him in order for Felix to grow stronger. Otherwise, it would all be meaningless. At least so far, everything was unfolding just as he expected.Meanwhile, Holt was silently praying like crazy as he lay on the ground. The battle had already begun, and his companion had understood his message. This was their only shot, however slim, at killing Felix.As time passed and the afternoon crept past 3:00 pm, his companion started to falter. His attacks were growing sluggish. He hadn't been injured, but he was clearly on the defensive now.Seeing this, Felix completely lost interest. Once his opponent lost the will to kill him, the Dragon Rebirth would no longer grow.Still, the battle wasn't for nothing. He'd made solid progress and was a little closer to becoming a Celestial Realm

    Felix had clearly found Holt's weak spot. These guys were so desperate to extend their lives that they turned the entire Aquamarinus into a breeding ground. Obviously, they were terrified of death. As long as there was even the slightest chance of survival, they'd take it.And sure enough, Holt immediately agreed. He pulled out some kind of device and flew off, clearly contacting his comrades."But even if I agreed," Holt said, "the three of us split up and searched in different directions. Even if they rush over, they won't make it until tomorrow."The fear in his eyes was obvious, so much so that Felix couldn't help but laugh."How interesting," Felix said. "You made a deal with the Ant Queen, right? Couldn't she at least give you something to help you move freely through Desolated Lands at night?"Holt shot him a bitter smile. "The Ant Queen's children—the soldier ants—are born hunters. That instinct can't be erased. And honestly, we've never needed to go out at night anyway."

    Lumen flew out and quickly returned. Felix's expression eased completely, and with a step, he vanished from where he stood."Chasing me was fun last time, huh? Did you think it'd go the same this time?" he asked.When he reappeared, someone was already lying on the ground about ten yards ahead. It was a figure fully shrouded in a gray robe, a man named Holt Bovington.That was Felix holding back. Otherwise, Lumen's previous strike could've shattered Holt's soul on the spot."Felix Zeller? It really is you!" Holt's voice was full of shock. Whatever he'd planned to do was already too late. His soul had taken a devastating blow, and he no longer had the strength to fight."Yeah, it's me. Just like I suspected, you people really aren't all that strong when it comes to soul power."Felix had spared his life because he wanted answers."If you answer a few questions honestly, I'll let you live. Even with your soul badly damaged, I assume someone who knows about Nine Flames and Desolate

    Three months later, deep within a mountain on Aquamarinus, a meeting was taking place. Who would've imagined palace-like structures hidden within the mountain itself?In one of the chambers, a sky-blue dome adorned the ceiling. Beneath it, three figures in gray robes sat cross-legged, their bodies cloaked in shadow. Their faces were completely obscured."I went to see the Ant Queen yesterday. There's definitely something wrong.""Enough with the vague talk. Be specific.""In just three months, the Ant Queen has lost millions of her children. Do you even understand what that means?"The atmosphere shifted as all three took a sharp breath. A long silence followed before one finally spoke, "Perhaps our earlier theory is right. Is someone hunting soldier ants in Desolated Lands at night?""It has to be. How else do you explain millions of casualties? At this rate, we're down to just a million soldier ants across the entire planet. If this keeps up, they'll be wiped out in a month. An

    "I didn't expect you to be a doctor, too. Thanks," Myles said, but then suddenly froze. His mind started racing.Wait a minute! He took down a tiger of True Blood Realm. On top of that, he was extremely skilled in medicine. That could only mean…"You figured out who I am?" Felix asked with a smile, trying to put Myles at ease. Despite that, Myles couldn't hide his fear. "You're Felix Zeller?""That's right. Judging by your reaction, I take it I've become a traitor to The Recovery Association? Or maybe some kind of unforgivable villain?"The air grew a bit awkward, and Myles shot him a strained smile."Not exactly… It's just that you took down the Flame Monarch. That's kind of hard to wrap my head around."His expression shifted again."Actually, everyone's still pretty confused. When we woke up this morning, every city, town, and even the smallest villages received a message. Five days from now, the Flame Monarch is holding a Flame Ceremony."Felix paused, frowning. "What's t

    With Lumen and Indigo attacking and the Infinite Shield defending, Felix held his ground. Occasionally, he cast minor spells that barely consumed any soul power. Even as the monsters surged toward him like a tidal wave, not one of them could so much as scratch him.Feeling the steady stream of energy flooding into him, Felix grinned. If things kept going like this, there was a high chance he'd break through to the next major soul realm—Soul Overlord Realm.If he could level up again during the elimination rounds, his odds of winning the whole thing would increase significantly. Especially since Soul Overlord Realm required soul enhancement, it was a whole different league compared to Aetherium Realm.Once he hit Soul Overlord Realm, he was confident he'd be able to go toe-to-toe in a soul battle with the powerful figure who had chased him during dusk.That guy didn't dare appear in Desolated Lands at night, which likely meant his soul wasn't strong. In that case, Felix might actual

    The sun had already begun to set. After fleeing in a panic, Felix had no idea if there was even a single place ahead that could shield him from the coming darkness.A few minutes later, the presence chasing him within his domain disappeared. Logically, the pursuer should've caught up in less than ten minutes, but they gave up. Still, Felix didn't relax for a second. The darkness was about to fall, and that could only mean two things. Either the pursuer wasn't confident they could survive the desolate night themselves, or they assumed there was no flame nearby and Felix was as good as dead.Either way, this was the most dangerous moment yet.After sprinting several more miles, Felix finally stopped. All around him stretched a barren wasteland with no end in sight. Even though he had memorized maps to identify different areas, they were useless now. As darkness swallowed the land, all reference points vanished."Damn it! I guess I'll have to see for myself what the hell comes out i
