From Prisoner to Si Chen..

Chapter 372 Silver Bottle Fifteen
boom!
Boom! !
In the beautiful and peaceful Chessboard Manor, the ground shook violently. Along with loud noises, the lawn was damaged by the aftermath of the battle, and dirt mixed with grass debris was scattered everywhere.

Woo!
Boom! !

dong dong dong! !

There was a sudden, hair-raising sound of something breaking through the air, like the whistling sound of a heavy object moving at high speed. Immediately following, there was a dull thud that could make your heart stop beating.

Two members of the "Midnight Rose" group, a man and a woman, were seriously injured and covered in blood. They looked at the stone sculpture in front of them with fear on their faces.

The tall figure was extremely oppressive.

He wore a crown, a scarlet cloak, and held a terrifying stone hammer in his hand. Behind the hammer head was a huge wooden wheel that was turning non-stop.

Not far away, the female companion was lying in a pool of blood, barely breathing. Half of her body was smashed into pieces, but she was still alive and was screaming.

That was the result of being hit by a hammer, causing both physical and spiritual damage, which was extremely painful.

"Who on earth is this guy?!"

Of the two people still standing on the field, the male Hisayoshi's face changed and he spoke quickly.

The female companion shook her head, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and said in a deep voice:

"I don't know. But he is only level 4, but he has the strength of level 5. We are no match for him..."

"Where's Mr. Red Duke?"

“Still doing research…”

The two exchanged ideas quickly.

The female companion gritted her teeth and said:

"This won't work. We must notify Mr. Red Duke immediately—"

boom! !

But before he could finish his words, the stone sculpture moved again.

There was a loud noise, and the stone sculpture crushed the grass with one foot, leaving a big hole. Then, at a speed that did not match its bulky body, it passed through a blurry track and arrived in front of the two people.

The terrifying stone hammer came crashing down on his head!

woo-

The two men's pupils shrank sharply and they dodged to the side.

Boom! !

The ground shook, and the lawn splashed with a circular curtain of soil like waves, and fine mud and sand fell like rain.

"The Spear of Consciousness."

The man rolled over, got up from the ground, covered his forehead with one hand, and pointed at the tall sculpture with the other hand.

With his spiritual vision, he saw a translucent spear emerging from between the man's eyebrows and flying straight out.

But as soon as the spear approached within one meter of the stone sculpture, it stopped in mid-air, as if blocked by an invisible barrier.

next second.

There was a soft bang.

The translucent spear exploded and turned into countless fragments that fell down.

"Puff——" The man vomited blood due to the backlash caused by overusing the original power.

"Don't use consciousness attacks on him anymore, it's useless..."

The female companion reminded anxiously.

"This guy's kingdom imprint is surprisingly strong. Ordinary methods have no effect on him at all!"

"Damn it!" The man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face gloomy. "What the hell is this monster? Is it really level 4..."

The stone bone sculpture remains silent.

Jilan's expression was cold, as if he was really an emotionless stone statue.

'In this era, the January Hour "Torrent" has not yet ascended, and the 4th-level essence of the Crucible Holy Grail Spiral is not a "clay sculpture"... It is interesting that the essence possesses the ability to attack with consciousness.'

next second.

He moved again with the stone hammer in hand, and with unmatched momentum, he caught up with the man again.

The huge stone hammer swung sideways and brushed past the man's body in the instant he had difficulty reacting.

Bang! !

"Ah!" The man tried his best to dodge, but the left half of his body was instantly smashed into a pulp.

He screamed miserably, his body tumbled in the air as light as a feather, then fell heavily to the ground, sliding for more than ten meters, unable to get up.

"Jordan!" The female companion's face suddenly changed and she shouted. "And Vargas..."

She never expected that the enemy invaded the "Chessboard Manor" alone, first killed Fried, and then faced the siege of the three Jiushi people without any harm, and even defeated two of them in a very short time.

Even she was seriously injured and had little strength to fight again.

"Damn it!" The woman lost her will to fight and cursed. She made a prompt decision to retreat, so she flashed to her two companions and picked them up.

Then, he activated his "Soldier Chess" to open up a new space and escaped into it.

But as soon as she escaped to a new lawn, the three-meter-tall sculpture followed her in.

The woman looked back and was shocked to see that the other person was holding a golden horse head "Knight chess piece" in one hand.

"How can it be?!"

She couldn't understand why an outsider had the key to the "Chessboard Manor" when that was clearly a chess piece that only official members of "Midnight Rose" could own!
Bang!
The stone sculpture took a step forward and came in front of the woman. Then, in her desperate gaze, it raised its stone hammer and smashed it down.

boom! !

Blood and bones splattered, and the woman died on the spot.

Jilan raised his foot indifferently and stomped on two other seriously injured and dying Jiuze people, then bent down, reached out and touched the bodies of the three people, corrupting them.

The mysterious number "1589" in the corner of my sight jumped three times in a row.

"1844".

"2101". "2387".

At the same time, three colorful patterns symbolizing the imprint of the 4th-order kingdom appeared next to the color number.

Gilan didn't look closely, but suddenly activated the "Knight Chess" in his hand and took a step back.

His huge figure became translucent in the next second and quickly disappeared into the "Chessboard Manor".

Less than ten seconds after Gillan left.

A middle-aged man in a dark red embroidered silk dress came here with a cane.

It was none other than Boral Dupuy, the "Red Duke".

He glanced at the messy lawn, his eyes flashing with silvery light, as if he saw something, his face turned gloomy, and he murmured indifferently:

"He killed four of my Night Rose's long-timers in a row. Even Freed is dead... Very good, very good."

"McCarla, is this your response?"

"I will give you a gift of equal value in return."

...

...

After Gilan left the "Chessboard Manor", he returned to his original appearance.

He ran wildly on the streets at night, leaving Andrea as fast as he could and returning to the wooden house in the suburbs.

In fact, Gillan himself did not expect that the "Knight Chess" in his hand could open the door to the "Chessboard Manor" in the film world.

He chased Fried all the way and killed four Jiushi people in succession, which brought him a large number of mysterious points and four kingdom seals.

Tonight's hunt yielded a huge reward.

This put Gillan in a very good mood.

When he returned to the cabin, Galken was still sleeping under the power of Weiwei's spell. But Gillan knew that Mrs. McCalla was probably aware of his actions tonight.

It's just that I tacitly agree and won't say anything.

"I've been working on this film for more than half a year, and I feel like the plot is pretty bland... Maybe that's why Mr. Pala gave it to me, so I can study mysticism and alchemy in peace."

Gillan took off his cloak, lay on the bed and closed his eyes.

"I have consolidated my foundation under the guidance of Madam McCara, and I have also accumulated a wave of mysterious points, and I have also gained an additional four Kingdom Seals."

"The purpose of watching the movie this time has been exceeded..."

"I feel like the plot is coming to an end soon. The Red Duke seems to be making some moves regarding the refining of the Philosopher's Stone..."

Thinking of this, he controlled his consciousness to sink and fell into sleep.

Early the next morning.

The carriage sent by the Flamel family delivered supplies and provisions as usual, but this time, the butler of Count Nicholas's family came along with the carriage.

She was an elderly woman with neatly combed white hair in an intricate pile, and she was graceful and elegant, wearing a dark blue velvet dress that was cinched at the waist.

"…Miss, Madam has asked you not to go back to Andrea during this period of time. Something bad has happened there."

The housekeeper whispered to Flamel.

Hearing this, the noble girl, who was originally in a happy mood, was stunned and very puzzled.

"Something bad..." Flamel opened her mouth. She quickly pulled the old woman's sleeve again and asked, "What happened to Andrea?"

"Another disappearance occurred in Andrea last night. A total of nine people disappeared. A building in the eastern residential area caught fire and was burned beyond recognition."

The housekeeper sighed and said with lingering fear.

"The owner of that building is Baron Fried Dupu, but he himself has disappeared... Now the entire city of Andrea is on alert, hunting down the mysterious murderer."

"Disappearances are happening again?!"

Flamel was very surprised and covered his mouth.

"Is it the same murderer from half a year ago who did this? Oh my god, this time he murdered nine people, including a noble."

"Yes, miss, Andrea is in danger at the moment."

The housekeeper looked serious.

"And there's another thing... I don't know if it's some new type of plague, but there are large-scale injuries and illnesses in the city of Andea."

"Residents, whether noble or common, may suffer from strange diseases, becoming weak and powerless, or even unable to get out of bed."

"This time, my lady ordered me to inform you of the situation. I hope you can convey it to Ms. McCalla... Perhaps this great alchemist knows the cause and can curb the plague."

"Okay, I understand. I will pass it on to the teacher."

Flamel also understood the seriousness of the matter and nodded. Then, she asked with concern:
"Is mother okay?"

"Madam is in good health, but she has been affected a little. She kept coughing when she spoke this morning."

"Is that so..." Flamel showed his worry.

After a while.

The housekeeper left with the carriage. Flamel did not dare to delay and immediately entered the main house, intending to inform Mr. McCullagh in the attic about the matter.

What Flamel didn't know was that Gillan, who was reading a book in the wooden house on the left, had heard every word of her conversation with the housekeeper with his extraordinary hearing.

Gillan didn't care about the arson and disappearances.

After all, he is the "mysterious murderer" himself.

However, another piece of news caught his attention.

'A new plague?'

Gillan narrowed his eyes.

“It shouldn’t be…”
