“We are planning to return tomorrow, what about you, Mr. Sean?”
Isaac fed Hallock a bone and looked at Su Lu.
“Of course, I’ll go back with you, um… maybe I need to go to the police station to seek help, to replace my identity documents…”
Su Lu replied with a smile, “Please be sure to leave your contact information.”
He was hinting that he would repay this favor.
But it’s a trivial matter, a donation of ten to twenty Golden Dragons per person should suffice.
Strictly speaking, they didn’t save him, they only provided a trifling amount of help.
“Oh, you can go to Grammar University and mention any one of our names…”
Isaac smiled, “I like making friends, especially travelers. Listening to their experiences from different places is very interesting…”
“At this point, we can’t help but bring out our treasure!”
With a smile, James brought out several bottles of alcohol and gave the two ladies some other drinks, “These beverages have low alcohol content, suitable for ladies!”
“And John, you must have a drink!”
He patted John on the shoulder and handed him a large goblet, “Langzim Liquor… dubbed the blood of the warrior race. If you can light this drink on fire and down it in one gulp, it’ll take away all your fears.”
Intrigued, John took a deep gulp.
“Cough, cough…”
Immediately, he seemed to be unable to handle the strong liquor and started coughing relentlessly.
“Ha ha… John, did the Revenant scare you into becoming a woman during the day?” James laughed heartily.
However, the next moment, his laughter stopped abruptly.
That’s because John had fallen on the ground, holding his own neck with both hands, and his face had turned purple.
“My God… what’s wrong with him?”
The two ladies screamed.
“He… Is he choking?”
Isaac was dumbfounded.
This was the first time he had seen someone choke this hard from drinking alcohol.
As time went by, his expression changed, sensing that John was suffocating and might die if it continued like this!
“John, take deep breaths! You’ll be okay!”
Isaac and James rushed over to help John, but were swept away by a startling strength.
As they watched John’s face turning more purple and him about to faint,
a strange voice resonated around them.
It was hard to describe the feeling, like nails scratching on glass, intense metallic friction, or crowds of people screaming in their ears.
Isaac turned around and saw Su Lu.
He was looking at John lying on the ground with a serious expression, uttering ambiguous notes from his mouth.
Those didn’t seem like notes, but rather like the screams of a lunatic, filled with noise!
The Language of Arrogance!
It was a more mysterious language than Gulam Language and Ancient Hebrew, carrying more mysterious power.
If it were an ordinary person, even if they were proficient in Ancient Hebrew, it would be hard for them to successfully conduct a ritual.
But The Language of Arrogance was different!
Once learned, even a commoner can chant it to instantly unleash transcendent powers!
Of course, its syllables were strange and almost challenging the limit of the human throat.
If Su Lu did not have the attribute bar and directly obtained ‘Knowledge of the Mad God’, he would probably be as confused as the common folk around him, unable to remember a single note, let alone speak it out loud.
In this frenzy of shouts, akin to a heavy metal rock concert, John’s choking miraculously calmed down.
He spat out a mouthful of liquor and swore, “Bullshit… it almost killed me!”
At this time, Isaac and others were staring at his neck with a bizarre expression.
Over there, two purplish handprints were embedded on his skin like tattoos.
“A ghost!”
“It’s a revenant of the day … it still won’t let us go!”
Diana was the first to break down, spilling the wine glass in her hand and bursting into tears.
Whoosh!
The cold night wind extinguished the bonfire.
The surroundings instantly chilled to the bone, as if the forest were harboring numerous dangerous creatures, emitting threatening auras.
A sense of panic spread among the crowd.
The only calm ones were Su Lu and a dog.
“Sean … Were you reciting a spell to exorcise it?” Elizabeth looked to Su Lu first: “Are you the legendary mystic?”
Suddenly, everyone’s gaze towards Su Lu was as if looking at a savior.
“Indeed … I am a folk enthusiast, with some research in the mystical area … the spell just now, was a casual discovery during an archaeological expedition…”
Su Lu laughed.
Actually, he had seen it just now.
A revenant in ancient hunter attire, bleeding from the eyes, was strangling John’s neck.
That was the real cause of his suffocation!
Su Lu chose the Language of Arrogance to order it to withdraw. Naturally, because it only required vocal exertion, without any use of inspiration. It was the most cost-effective solution.
“What do we do now? Will that … revenant, return?”
Elizabeth grabbed Su Lu’s shoulders, asking urgently.
“Clearly… it does not seek reconciliation!”
Su Lu pointed in a direction.
“Ah!”
There, the revenant appeared again, semi-translucent, with a rigid expression, and cold eyes fixed on the campsite.
“Ah!”
“There really are ghosts!”
Everyone in the camp was thrown into chaos again.
“Ha ha … what do we do … ha ha…”
The large and sturdy James was holding an axe, his teeth chattering relentlessly.
Perhaps he could bravely fight against bandits, but when facing ghosts, he lost all his nerve.
You can’t blame him.
Everyone has something they fear.
“As for what’s next…”
Su Lu had just tested the strength of the Language of Arrogance, and it was really quite good, but a little vocally exhausting.
“I think… it should be up to him!”
Following his gesture, Isaac saw an innocent-looking Hallock: “Hmm? You mean … my dog?”
“Yes, Hallock received transcendent powers yesterday, this is its responsibility!”
After all, it was this troublesome husky that took the Revenant’s treasure.
You should solve the troubles you create yourself, even if it’s just a dog.
“Hallock … transcendent powers?”
Isaac looked at the serious-looking husky, his expression was a little dull, then looking into Hallock’s eyes, he said: “Tell me… was I dreaming last night?”
As soon as the words were out, he was lying on the ground, like a dog, putting a bone in front of Hallock, only missing wagging a tail.
The people around, Elizabeth and James included, looked at this scene with dazed expressions.
“I seem to remember too …”
Diana murmured: “Last night, I was stewing a bone for Hallock …”
“Hmm? What’s happening?”
Isaac who was digging a hole with his right leg, suddenly came to his senses, looking at his own state and the bizarre gazes of those around him, he voiced a question.
