Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Chapter 377: The Devil's Offer



Considering the possibility, Seraphine thought the chance she had entered was high, but she didn't understand why she had done it.

The only reason that even she forgot about Seraphine was because she raised the intensity of her ability. Otherwise, this would not have happened.

(ps. Cough, this is really the reason, not that the author forgot about her xD)

Solomon just wanted to answer when suddenly an explosion was heard from the top of the spire.

"Dammit! Did your people attack Alex's subordinate?" Isolde complained with anger.

Solomon frowned, exchanging some messages with his subordinates through the implanted brain chip.

"I am sorry, I didn't know Alex had a high goblin under him."

"Hmph!" Isolde snorted, then turned her gaze to William, "You are the one that opened the portal, right?"

She could feel similar mana particles from the portal coming from William's hand and from one other person. But she recognized William; Emily had given them information about the people who went with them to avoid friendly fire.

"I am sorry," William said with lowered eyes.

Now that he had done it, he felt a bit guilty, but considering how things turned out, he still felt what he did was right.

Alice just stood in silence, watching the events unfold. She was more focused on the teleportation device, as it looked similar to the one Prof. Faerith made before.

"Say that to Alex! I don't know what deal he made with an alien like you, but I don't even think what you did was really right. You can have passed it by him."

William didn't retort. He stayed silent as Isolde left for the spire to make sure Petricia didn't kill anyone. Solomon also followed her, afraid the reverse might happen.

She may not have killed the other Hunter, but it wasn't out of the realm of possibility that she injured them to the point they couldn't walk. It had happened before.

"I will go with them. How about you?" Alice asked.

She want to ask about the portal to Solomon. She had seen the whole process till it activated but still didn't understand it.

"I will look around and see what I can do to help," William said as he pointed at a group of hunters now cleaning the debris.

The woman guarding the area also quickly left the moment she got the opportunity. It was almost a miracle she stayed sane all this time.

Another group could also be seen bringing the captured Dragari and humans back to the portal.

As the majority of the humans were drugged, they attacked without care for who was who, leaving the hunters no choice but to knock them down.

Alice nodded, then left. William also started walking on the road. Seeing the many dead bodies, his heart throbbed as each one reminded him of Roxy.

William quickened his step until he saw a few hunters with conflicted expressions.

"Excuse me, what happened?"

"Just see for yourself," the man said while pointing toward a specific destination.

At the corner of a collapsed building, a group of kids were crowding together. If Heimdall was here, he would recognize them; they were the kids he had seen before.

Many of the kids shivered in fear while a young girl stood in front of them holding a sharp rock. She was now like a wild beast preparing to pounce on anyone who got close.

William's eyes glistened, his vision becoming blurry. The girl's face changed to his dearest. An old memory resurfaced; he had been in similar circumstances before.

"Roxy..." he mumbled in his mind.

William started walking slowly toward the girl.

"Stop, she will really attack. We already tried that," one of the hunters said.

None of them dared to act.

Despite her fierce attitude, her body was thin. She looked really frail, making them feel a single touch would hurt her, or worse, it could even kill her.

But William ignored their remarks. He raised both his hands as he walked slowly toward her.

"It's useless. She cannot even speak," another hunter warned.

William stopped in his tracks. He sighed. Since words would be pointless, he decided to do it another way. His qi surged forward.

Utilizing his movement technique, he appeared near the little girl. The woman wanted to move, but her consciousness quickly disappeared.

William used his qi to gently knock her and all the children out. His hand moved as he propped her frail body and then laid her on the ground.

The hunters watched in a daze; they didn't know how William did it, but they guessed it was related to the new power system distributed by the association.

There was a possibility he did it with power, but with the current craze on the new power system, the possibility didn't even cross their minds.

"Bring them," William said, waking the hunters from their daydreams.

"Yes, sir," they replied in unison and quickly carried the children on their backs.

William watched from the side, not moving until everything was done. He was left alone once again.

His shoulders slumped down as his emotions started to stir. At this moment, a whisper came, "Do you want to resurrect her?"

William's expression changed. He looked around but found nobody was there. But he knew the voice was real.

"Who are you? Show your face?" he asked as he spread his qi around the area.

But just when it reached a few steps away, the qi dispersed like a wave hitting the ocean.

"Resurrecting the dead is impossible, but giving life to those that still have their souls is possible. And her soul, I have it."

"BULLSHIT!" William's anger flared, his qi exploding, but the result was the same.

No matter how big a wave was, it was like hitting the sea, giving out no result.

"Want me to prove it to you? But seeing how emotional you are now, this doesn't seem a good choice."

William clenched his fist. He knew this mysterious voice was baiting him, but his heart was beating fast as hope started growing.
