Chapter 15

The vengeance was avenged, as if a heavy burden had been unloaded, Ren's whole body was relaxed and he was in a very happy mood.

He glanced at Ramsay's body and muttered, "Last time you took my money away, this time it's my turn."

So he went forward and searched, only found a wallet, and nothing else.

Without carefully checking how much money was in the wallet, Ryan dragged Ramsay's body and was about to throw it into the river, when he suddenly found that his strength had increased a lot.

As an adult, Ramsay weighs a lot, but he drags it effortlessly. He can even carry it with one hand, as easily as grabbing a brick.

"My strength has increased by at least two or three times!"

Ren was very pleasantly surprised, and threw Ramsay's body into the river with all his strength. He threw it six or seven meters away, fell into the water with a plop, and was quickly washed away by the river.

After finishing the treatment, Ren immediately walked back while checking his physical condition.

"Fuck!"

As soon as Ren turned on the phone interface, he was taken aback, "The battery is already fully charged, no wonder my strength has become so great."

He had been fighting just now, and he didn't pay special attention to the battery of the phone, only looked at it when he killed Asperger. At that time, the surge was over 50% in an instant, and the souls of three more people were absorbed later, including an Iron Guard. Unknowingly, the battery reached 100%!

Ren once speculated that the stronger the absorbed soul, the more power he would get, and now it seems that this is true.

When absorbing the fallen man's soul for the first time, it contributed eight grids of electricity.

The fallen person is just an ordinary person, but among the four people absorbed tonight, there are two superhumans. Especially Eisberg, who is still a second-level shadow warrior, his soul strength alone can rival five ordinary people.

Adding that iron guard and two ordinary people, the battery is almost fully charged.

"I just felt that the soul seemed to be sublimated. It turned out that it was not an illusion, but that the strength of the real soul had been raised to a new stage."

Ryan has long understood that electricity is not only closely related to his physical state, but also represents the strength of his soul.

The higher the battery, the stronger the soul.

Now that the battery is fully charged, Ren's physical fitness has also increased. Although he is not yet at the level of a superhuman, it is far superior to ordinary people. Just like after years of continuous exercise, he feels that his whole body has endless energy, as if it will never end will be tired.

In addition, several icons in the phone were activated in one go, but there is no time to fumble now.

Ryan quickly returned to the carriage, where Asperger's body was still there.

The seriously injured horse was still alive, and whined from time to time. Two of its legs were broken, and it was impossible to run again in the future. The coachman was already cold, he was the first to die, probably because he was far away, and Ren didn't absorb the coachman's soul.

Ren got into the car and searched, but found nothing of value.

Likewise, Asperger only had one wallet with him.

He went to pick up Asperger's longsword, returned to the side of the carriage, and pierced the horse's skull, ending its suffering.

A soul flew out of the horse corpse and was absorbed by Ren, but nothing changed.

"It seems that after the battery is fully charged, it is useless to absorb more souls."

Ren sheathed the long sword, put it behind his back, held the shotgun in his hand, and walked towards the manor.

The manor was very quiet. Ren hid in the grass outside and waited patiently for more than ten minutes, but no one came out again, obviously no one was there.

But he didn't take it lightly, held his gun against the wall, and explored step by step.

The manor was not big, so Ren quickly searched it roughly and found no one, so he felt relieved.

The layout of this manor is simpler than he expected. Many places have not been carefully taken care of. The rooms on the third floor are all empty. The interior decoration is very low-level, the sanitation is also poor, and the kitchen stinks. , It's not like a place where the rich live on vacation.

There is only a relatively clean room on the second floor, which should be lived by Asperger.

Ren rummaged through boxes and cabinets, and finally found a suitcase under the desk. It was heavy to lift, and it seemed to be full of things.

The boxy suitcase is not big, and it is not locked. It can be opened only by unlocking the two locks.

Ren stood a little further away, picked up the lock with his long sword, and opened the box.

"hiss……"

Ren took a breath, and almost thought his eyes were blurred, because the box was full of money!

The money is all 100 copper banknotes, bundled up one after another, and stacked neatly to fill the entire box. According to visual inspection, there are about thirty or forty stacks of banknotes, each stack is one hundred bills, that is, ten thousand copper dollars. The total amount of money in this box exceeds three hundred thousand!

"Damn, this is a big fortune!"

Ren was very excited. He has been living on the little savings left over for half a month, and has been worrying about how to make money, so he stole the wallets of Ramsay and Asperger just now. Unexpectedly, he sent them in the blink of an eye A windfall.

"This should be the money Asperger got from dealing with the stolen goods, and it was only a small part, most of which was hidden in his home in the city."

Ren was not dazzled by the money, and had to confirm that there was no hidden danger in the money.

He emptied the money out of the box, inspected each stack of bills to make sure nothing was lodged in them, and then found a bag to put them in instead of putting them back in the suitcase.

"A total of 360,000 yuan, equivalent to 360 gold shields, can be called a huge sum of money."

Ren happily carried the purse and went downstairs, ready to leave.

When he came down the stairs, his eyes glanced at a small door at the corner, and he stopped involuntarily.

This small door at the bottom of the stairs is usually behind a cellar for storing wine or food. When he searched the manor just now, he didn't notice the door and ignored it.

Now, he found a gleam of light from the crack of the door, very faint, if he didn't have the eyes of the soul, he probably wouldn't be able to notice it.

"Is there someone behind the door?"

Ren was startled, and immediately dropped the purse, aimed his gun at the small door, and stepped back step by step to seize the most favorable position.

However, he waited for a long time, but there was no movement behind the door.

It's just that there is still a faint light coming out from time to time, but there is no sound.

"No one? Or something else?"

Ryan decided to find out.

He cautiously groped the door a few times and found that it was not locked, so he pushed it hard and it opened. Behind the door is a step leading to the ground. There is a dim kerosene lamp on the wall. Because the wick is too short, it is about to go out, and the flame flickers from time to time.

Ren scanned the passage carefully several times, but found no mechanism or the like, so he walked down slowly.

There was a corner at the bottom of the steps. When Ren passed the corner, he was immediately stunned by the sight in front of him.

This is a dark basement, the four walls are made of stone blocks, the overall shape is rectangular, and there is a half-meter-high diamond-shaped altar in the middle.

A corpse was lying on the altar. He was disemboweled, and all the internal organs were pulled out, and placed on the edge of the altar. His limbs were also dismembered, and they were piled together in a strange shape. The head of the corpse is still there, but the scalp has been peeled off, and the flesh on the face has been plucked clean, revealing the white bones, leaving only the skull connected to the body.

On the chest of the corpse, there is an open book.

In addition to this corpse, skulls were scattered all over the basement, and bones were piled under the corners.

The ground was stained black with blood, and the entire basement was gusty, with heart-pounding howls echoing from time to time. I don't know how many people were killed here and were used as sacrifices.

"The altar of the evil god!"

Ren had never seen such a scene before, and his scalp tingled for a while.

The blood on the altar was not dry yet, and he finally knew what Esperger and Ramsay were doing in the manor before. It turned out that they were holding a sacrifice ceremony for the evil god.

"The rumors are true. The Shadow Blade Killer really believes in the evil god."

Ren muttered to himself, but he didn't know which evil god Shadow Blade believed in. This evil god seemed to be a taboo in the empire. Ordinary people knew nothing about him, and he had never been mentioned before.

"of course it's true."

A voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Renn was startled by the sudden sound. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a shadow approaching him from behind. He didn't even think about it, he just turned around and shot him.

boom!

The gunfire exploded, echoing in the passage.

In the white smoke, dozens of small steel balls covered half of the passage, including the figure.

At this time, Ren had already seen the appearance of the other party, and it turned out to be the legendary demon hunter Roger in the Basil Hotel. Roger was obviously not hostile, but he had already fired and it was too late to stop.

A layer of golden light lit up in front of Roger, like a spherical shield. Small steel balls hit it and caused waves, and then bounced off without causing any damage.

Through the golden shield, Roger's left hand can be seen forming a strange handprint.

He released the handprint, and the shield disappeared.

"This is the gun you made in Zoltan's workshop?" Roger looked at the shotgun in Ren's hand, with a bit of curiosity in his cat-like eyes, and praised: "It's powerful, and it's the best shotgun." What’s rare is that ordinary people can also use it.”

"Master Roger, why are you here, I was shocked."

Ren moved his gun away calmly, not wanting to mention the shotgun.

He hasn't decided whether to promote gunpowder firearms in the future, because he doesn't know that this kind of weapon can be used by ordinary people and will threaten extraordinary people. If it is mass-produced and popularized, what impact will it have on the world.

Moreover, he didn't know much about Roger's personality and background, so he couldn't be too cautious.

As for calling Roger "Master," that was learned from the hotel guests.

The master does not refer to Roger's strength as a demon hunter, but his card skills. He once participated in the highest level of the All Souls Card Competition in the empire and won the title of "Master".

"I'm here with you." Roger replied quietly, which shocked Rennes.
