The gravel condensed into an overgrown ball and fixed the blood basin and the crystal bottle.

Richard sensed the five supreme demons’ corpses in the depths of the earth and gradually regained his calm.

At this time, he was not utterly out of danger. Opening the champagne in the middle was a big taboo.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his inner emotions, and continued to control the gravel to move the corpses downstream in the direction where the mummy troop was hiding.

There was sand below, a lake above, and thick fog on the lake’s surface.

After he activated the Sand Transformation, one would be immune to magic detection and enemy lock-on. It was a characteristic that Richard had discovered during the few days of training with Xina.

Even when they were face to face, Xina could not use her bloodline power to lock onto Richard. She could only fight with brute force.

Xina was not a member of Twilight City, so she could not follow him into the dungeon.

All the skills were refreshed after the resurrection.

Richard immediately activated the Sand Transformation to put himself in the safest state to prevent accidents.

At this time, the sand covered every corner of the surroundings and formed a powerful shield.

Under several layers of protection, the templar dragoons in the sky flew over Richard’s head several times without being able to detect his location.

They speculated that Richard might have escaped from the river and never left the two riverbanks.

And it was immeasurably laborious to find an unknown target in a river two to three hundred meters wide and long.

But what made them confident was that the curse of the holy light had already taken effect, and the human’s soul had already died.

As long as they swam around and waited for the blood energy to dissipate, they would ultimately find the holy dragon’s blood.

The two-winged angel’s curse of the holy light ensured them great confidence.

But because of this, Richard had the space to escape danger calmly.

He didn’t walk fast in the earth’s gravel, even if he could control it.

Especially when he dragged the five great demon corpses.

And to avoid making his target too obvious, he could only slow down.

After an hour, Richard returned to where he hid the mummy troop.

His head emerged from the bottom of the lake.

He immediately summoned Gray.

“Immediately set off downstream to meet with Ferguson! The templar dragoons and the two-winged angels may catch up at any time.”

“As you command!”

Gray should be the last. He could not find any traces of Gunter, so he could not help but hesitate.

“Lord, do we need to wait for Gunter to resurrect?”

Richard shook his head.

“Gunter isn’t dead yet. His soul phylactery hasn’t moved yet.”

“Let’s leave first. We can’t wait any longer.”

“Yes!”

It was an urgent matter. Richard didn’t want to face a terrifying existence like the double-winged angel head-on.

He dived back into the water. He was even more careful as he drove the sand platform downstream.

Meanwhile, the templar dragoons still waited for the blood to disappear. The holy dragon’s blood exuded an aura. They did not dare to move too far away from the area where they sensed the curse of the holy light took effect.

He was afraid that the great demons would beat them to it.

Richard controlled the sand platform at the bottom of the river and slowly left the range of the templar dragoons patrol just like that.

One hundred kilometers away, where the five rivers converged.

Richard found a safe bend in the river and released the remaining four teams of dark gargoyles after he marched in the water until sunset.

He had them scout the surroundings.

Richard felt much more relaxed with the reconnaissance troop in the air and far away from the terrifying lake.

It was too exciting this time.

Escaping from the joint attack of the two-winged angel and Mind Eater Demon and snatching great demons’ corpses and two giant dragons, the process was simply too much.

The only pity was that he did not know if the other party would discover the giant dragons’ corpses he had hidden at the bottom of the lake.

However, he could not return now. He could only wait for the time before returning after the storm here subsided.

They finally arrived where the five rivers marked on the system map converged after more than half an hour of travel. Multicolored clouds filled the sky.

After the rapids washed away the surroundings, they formed a vast lake.

At first glance, it was vast and mighty. It was many times bigger than the lake upstream.

Richard frowned. Just as he was about to send the dark gargoyles to investigate, the ruby in his arms immediately emitted warmth.

It guided him in the direction.

His heart relaxed. He waved his hand and handed the gemstone to Gray and ordered him to bring a few dark gargoyles to investigate.

In less than ten minutes, Gray returned to report he had found Ferguson.

Only then did Richard feel at ease. With a wave of his hand, all the mummies floated out of the water.

Only the sand platform at the bottom remained as if the troop rode the sand platform down the river.

The trick of hiding soldiers under the water could have an incredible effect at a critical moment.

There was no need to expose this trump card.

Under Gray’s guidance, Richard led the troop to the island in the lake’s center.

A pale figure appeared in front of them the moment they stepped onto the ground.

The Vice President of the Scarlet Council, level-19 hero, Ferguson.

The figure wore a black robe and was about 45 years old.

Its body was thin, and its breath was weak.

It had the aura of a ruined body, like a man about to die.

What caught people’s attention were the two rows of runes on its forehead, which exuded a mysterious aura.

Its pair of blue eyes were as sharp as a sword. Even though it could barely stand, it still gave people a sense of pressure.

That was the unique temperament of a high-level hero.

He opened the stats panel.

[Ferguson]

Damn, a level 19 hero, even sturdier than the Mind Eater Demon.
