I have a Synthesizer
#146 - Skull of the Candle Demon
Klein gradually put away the dazed expression he had before, and became slightly serious.
“Sorry, I said so much, but I was just tricking you. I want the candlestick, but I'm not very interested in your power. You should keep it for yourself, maybe you can pass it down as a treasure!”
Shadowflame burned on Klein's body, and all the red shadows that approached him were swallowed by the shadows in an instant.
“Shadow burning with black flames, this is an ability that violates the rules, no…”
Only Tilles' angry roar remained in Klein's ears.
As the red shadows were melted by the Shadowflame, Klein returned to reality.
Klein frowned slightly. Violating the rules was the second time he had heard this adjective.
The last time he heard it was from the main quest prompt: eliminate those who violate the rules, Belinda, the Flame Envoy sacrificed by the Fire Blade Sect.
“Forget it, there's too little information, it's useless to think about it.”
He picked up the candlestick in front of him and felt a powerful magical force rushing straight into his spiritual world, with a rather unstoppable feeling.
Klein estimated that this was Tilles' last resort. If it were an ordinary mage, he would probably be turned into an idiot on the spot by this shock.
But what was his structure? The mental barrier was long gone, or rather, the spiritual world had long become connected to the surroundings.
This mental shock couldn't cause any substantial damage to him at all.
“Heh! Young, do you know what it means to stir a big vat with a toothpick? Disobedient thing!”
Klein grabbed the candlestick, slammed it on the ground, and then stomped on it twice.
After viciously ravaging the candlestick, he picked it up again and felt that the candlestick seemed much more obedient.
As expected, a sapling won't grow straight if it's not pruned.
The candlestick in his hand emitted a faint red light, and endless coldness pierced into his bones, making it somewhat unbearable for him.
Klein could feel that when he held the candlestick, the surging magic power in the candlestick was constantly flowing into his body.
Effect: Amplifies magic power
Introduction: A forbidden candlestick, a part of the Candle Demon Tilles.
Klein took a deep breath.
“Hiss, top quality.”
Top quality naturally doesn't need fancy things to show its specialness.
He always believed in the principle that big is beautiful and more is strong. Directly and clearly amplifying magic power is exactly what he needed.
The simpler and more direct the effect, the more powerful it is. Only the weak resort to fancy things.
Why use two Shadow Arrows when one can solve the problem?
Without a doubt, the Skull of the Candle Demon is such a top-quality magic item that can increase the power of one Shadow Arrow to that of two.
“Such a dilapidated place actually has something like this sealed inside. Interesting.
The recent disappearances here might have something to do with this thing!”
Looking at the candlestick, Klein had too many questions.
According to Tilles, the seal was loosened due to some unknown reason, which allowed him to gain partial freedom.
What Klein had broken before was not a defensive barrier at all, but a loosened seal.
Tilles relied on the ability of illusion to control a Dreadfiend and then amplified the Dreadfiend's power.
He used this Dreadfiend to hunt more humans and magical beasts. Ordinary people don't have enough mental resistance. If they come here alone, they will easily fall into the trap, not to mention magical beasts.
Then, he used the Dreadfiend to break open the heads of humans and magical beasts and make them into sacrifices to slowly repair the candlestick with the power of sacrifice.
Relying on the seal barrier and strong concealment ability, Tilles could hide even if he encountered someone he couldn't deal with.
Originally, everything could have continued stably, but he didn't expect to encounter Klein, this cheat.
Mental shock was immune, illusions were broken, and the so-called deprivation of the five senses was more like a scare tactic in front of Klein.
If Tilles had attacked Becky and Eric, the chances might have been greater, but the three-person team mode of Jessup did have a certain rationality.
Because even if the other two were hit at the same time and fell into illusions, Klein could wake them up.
Tilles, who hadn't recovered much power, was almost completely countered by Klein. The temptation failed, and he even gave away equipment. What a tragedy.
…
After obtaining this candlestick, Klein regained his interest in this outing.
One is already so strong, what would it be like to collect them all? But if he really collected them all, he would have to guard against Tilles' resurrection, which is a bit troublesome.
Klein's mind was already on the Candle Demons. As for the mission, the Red and White Society, alas, it can only depend on fate.
…
Eric and Becky had returned to normal and naturally saw the candlestick in Klein's hand at this time.
Anyone with eyes should be able to see that this candlestick is a treasure, and not just any treasure.
According to the rules of the Jessup Executive Department team, the spoils of war during an outing mission should be divided equally among the team members.
So at this time, the atmosphere was a little subtle as the two looked at Klein holding the candlestick.
Klein looked at the two with a smile.
“I've been under a lot of pressure lately and I always have insomnia at night. I just happen to be missing a candlestick to light candles, so I'll take this first, no objections, right?”
How could Klein share something like the Skull of the Candle Demon with others? Uneven distribution of spoils could lead to trouble.
Therefore, Klein seemed to be smiling, but his attitude was very strong.
Before Becky could say anything, Eric had already stood up to express his opinion.
“What objections could I have? I know you're under a lot of pressure, so pay more attention to your health. It's just a candlestick, you can have it, I'm leaving, I'm leaving.”
After speaking, Eric took small steps and walked downstairs, his pace inexplicably brisk.
Looking at the departing Eric, Becky's face was very ugly. Aren't you someone who has 'milked' many people to death? Why are you being so cowardly in front of Klein?
Turning her head, Becky found that Klein's gaze had already fallen on her.
For some reason, when she met Klein's eyes, Becky felt like she was being stared at by some demon, and her heart beat violently a few times.
She felt that if she refused, Klein would not pay attention to her at all, and some bad things might happen.
Becky had never thought that the cooperation with Klein's team would be so bad. She seemed completely unable to do what Asmond had told her to do.
“I have no objections. It was something you found yourself anyway. Things like this don't need to be divided equally.”
Becky breathed a sigh of relief after saying this, because the pressure Klein had exerted on her before had disappeared.
Klein was also smiling at this time.
“Thank you, Captain Becky, for forgiving my rudeness. Don't worry, it won't happen again next time.”
You said that? Does anyone believe it? Becky didn't say what was in her heart, she just nodded.
“Hehe, it's okay, let's go.”
