"Who exactly are you?"
A human in black robes flew out from the Harpy.
Beneath the black robe, his face was pale, revealing a dense array of fine, white scales.
Reilo, who was studying the Harpy specimens, shook his head. These two Harpy were far too weak; the evil wind within their hearts was negligible, making them hardly suitable for research.
With a Moon Mark light in his eyes, Reilo gazed at the figure.
" Witcher?"
After life evolved into a celestial body, Reilo gained some unprecedented insights into the essence of life power.
Scholars need not elaborate; they are pursuing the evolution of Energy Magnetic Field and the continuous changes in physical properties.
However, the reason why Reilo could sense the Witcher's nature in this black-robed man was because the nature of his power was a gift obtained through the sacrifice of some unknown thing, as well as the collection and tempering of a large amount of emotional energy, which was completely different from the nature of a scholar's power.
"No, I am a scholar at the Grand Natural Sciences Academy."
The man vehemently denied it, speaking in a remarkably calm tone.
" The Grand Natural Sciences Academy is conducting business here. Please leave immediately. I sense an alarmingly sinister aura emanating from you. If you know what's good for you, leave on your own. Otherwise, don't blame the Grand Natural Academy for reporting you to the Church!"
After a brief moment of surprise, Reilo almost burst out laughing.
"A scholar from the Gran Academy? Reporting to the Church? Heh heh heh heh! Fine, go ahead and see who the Church purges first."
As for the so-called evil aura surrounding his body, from <Starry Sky Academic> perspective, Reilo didn't care.
Not just in <Starry Sky Academic>, but from any scholar's perspective, there is never any such thing as justice or evil in the food chain of nature.
Even within the Star Curtain World, the differences between different life forms are so vast, and the astonishment between different celestial bodies is unimaginable. What may be a basic form of survival for a certain creature is simply considered evil by humans because it threatens human survival.
Reilo doesn't delve into things involving philosophical logic; it's not Reilo area of expertise.
"Who exactly are you! Sent by the sorcerer?"
Unlike Reilo's understanding of the nature of power, the other party actually regarded Reilo as a Witcher.
A Harpy flew in from afar, screaming.
"He just killed my two children. He can't be allowed to leave; he must die!!"
Its eyes were bloodshot and it was hysterical.
The Harpy possesses a slight bloodline connection to the life and death of her offspring.
The figure in black robes and Reilo remained unmoved.
"Tell the sorcerers that although the Evil Shadow Great Warlock King doesn't approve of your Capricorn Duke plan, we won't interfere with it. Similarly, the Evil Shadow Great Warlock King hopes you won't interfere with the World War plan, or don't blame us for a complete break!"
Well?
Another sorcerer?
Capricorn Duke Plan?
World War II plans?
Reilo hadn't expected that this Witcher, whom he was meeting for the first time, would reveal so much information at once.
It seems that these Witcher, in their pursuit of returning to their Mother Star Aurora, have developed some disagreements and split into two different factions.
Reilo already knew something about the Capricorn Duke Project. It involved an unimaginably powerful being from among the ancient humans, seemingly stronger than the Creator of Light, who was sealed within the Dark Magic Eye Pyramid. The Dark World was attempting to release this ancient human powerhouse to fight against the God of Light?
As for the World War plan, Reilo knew nothing about it.
Realizing that this Witcher might know some inside information, Reilo took a deep breath.
"Hehehehe, I'm very interested in what you've said, and I imagine that person would be interested as well. It seems necessary to capture you and interrogate you properly."
This is only a level one Witcher.
The level two Witcher and Harpy were all focused on attacking the Twilight Elves and rescuing their two leaders, and had no time to pay attention to the situation on the outside.
"You! You weren't sent by the sorcerer?"
Realizing something, the Witcher covered in white scales paled.
You can't really blame him for that.
At this moment, Reilo's appearance was so eerie and evil that it wasn't too surprising that some people of the same level mistook him for Witcher.
" Sun Eye Summoning Technique "
A black slit opened in the sky, and a dark red eye filled with an aura of Destruction slowly opened again. The pupil of the five-meter-tall eye shifted slightly, focusing its gaze down at the black-robed figure.
Reilo even had to control the intensity of the Eye of the Sun's Destruction beam to prevent his opponent from being burned to a crisp like the Harpy.
"Hate roars."
An astonishing surge of hatred energy erupted from the Black Shadow figure, forming a roaring black skull above its head.
The Destruction beam of the Eye of the Sun struck the black skull, but was largely refracted and neutralized. Only a small portion struck the Black Shadow figure, where it was then neutralized by the eerie pale fish scales.
A chill ran through him. Although the black-robed Witcher could sense Reilo's power, he still charged towards Reilo.
He knew he had made a foolish mistake by revealing the secret plan to the outside world. If he couldn't silence Reilo, the punishment in the Dark World would be a hundred times more cruel than that of the Church!
Fortunately, the opponent seems to be a scholar of Natural Law, so if we fight in close combat, we might have a chance!
Most Witcher possess physiques comparable to those of evolutionary Profound Meaning Scholar. This Witcher was incredibly fast, getting closer and closer to Reilo.
Thirty meters, twenty meters, ten meters...
Reilo, amidst the evil black smoke of the Moon Shadow Wraith, remained calm and motionless.
"Can resist 50% of the power of the Eye of the Sun? Then... 75% it is."
boom!
The dark red pupil of the Eye of the Sun above its head stared at the tiny figure once more, unleashing a beam of Destruction light.
This beam of Destruction Light Pillar was clearly much more powerful than before!
The black skull, roaring with hatred, let out a mournful howl before being pierced by a dark red beam of Destruction Light Pillar.
The black-robed Witcher was less than five meters away from Reilo when he was enveloped by the Light Pillar of Destruction. The unbelievable heat seemed to melt everything. His black robe suddenly billowed up and instantly turned to ashes.
"Impossible!"
In an instant.
Large areas of the white scales were charred black. He stared at the figure shrouded in layers of evil black smoke, standing beneath the eerie, dark red giant eye. His figure was slightly distorted, revealing a hint of despair, as he fell from the sky.
As the Moon Tide Force, the charred black figure floated before Reilo.
His right hand transformed into black rock, and Reilo, as if holding a chick, lifted the man by the neck and began to observe him with great interest.
"These scales are quite interesting. They seem somewhat similar to my Dream Moon Technique, both obtained through sacrifice. They're worth dissecting, studying, and collecting."
The unconscious Witcher was enveloped in bubbles, and Reilo Luo slowly gazed in another direction.
The Harpy, which was rapidly swooping down, stopped abruptly a hundred meters away when it witnessed Reilo instantly kill the Witcher had previously fought alongside it. Its hysterical madness was instantly replaced by a chilling fear, and it froze, its face stiff.
Reilo's eyes scanned the Harpy from head to toe.
"It should be suitable as a research specimen."
However, the opponent was a bit far away, so Reilo took the initiative to fly towards the Harpy had come seeking revenge.
"No!!!"
As Reilo stared in astonishment, the banshee paused for a moment, then flew away into the distance with a scream, moving even faster.
Upon seeing this, Reilo was taken aback for a moment, then gave a sinister smile.
"Hehehehe, didn't you come here for revenge?"
The Harpy realized that Reilo was actually faster than her and was closing in, so she screamed desperately.
"No, you misunderstand! Those are just my two children. I have many more like them. If you wish, I can order them over immediately and give them a good slaughter!"
"Oh? Is that so? But I need your body as a specimen for my collection!"
Reilo's face showed a playful expression as he continued his pursuit at a leisurely pace.
"There are many of my sisters over there. They are stronger and more charming than me, and they know better how to serve you. After you've had your fill, whether you air-dry them or soak them in preservatives, they will be more beautiful. Please, let me go, waaaaah..."
Reilo was speechless.
I had only heard of this race before; books described them as a race that was both alluring and evil. Now I have truly witnessed it for myself.
In order to survive, this guy not only forgot the hatred of his descendants being killed in the blink of an eye, but even went so far as to betray his own clansmen to save himself.
Reilo, however, had no intention of letting her go.
As they drew closer, the Harpy captured her amidst her hysterical wails.
