Chapter - 2811

Warren was hellbent on capturing the rabbit for its delicious meat and, most importantly, its valuable spirit pill.

After following the animal for around fifteen minutes, he saw the rabbit suddenly stop.

Elated, he pounced toward the rabbit and pressed his body on it.

Haha! I've captured it! I've finally-huh? Why does the space below my chest feel • empty? Like the rabbit suddenly. disappeared? What the heck's going on?

Swiftly, he lowered his head and saw no traces of the rabbit underneath him.

What the f*ck? Cold sweat covered Warren's head. I saw the rabbit! I even felt its warmth when I pressed it under my body, so where did it go? Does it know how to turn invisible? How powerful is that rabbit, then?

"You've grown weak, Great Marshal." A cold voice ahead of him traveled into his ears.

When Warren lifted his head, he saw a man in quaint, white clothing and looking like a gentlemanly scholar from ancient times. The man was holding the white rabbit while looking at Warren mockingly.

Dammit! So that white rabbit was a trick of his. He intentionally lured me here. Who is he? Does he think I'm Zeke?

Instead of clarifying his identity, Warren asked, "Who are you?"

"You can't even recognize me? You really are useless. Even if you've never seen me before, you shouldn't be unfamiliar with my aura."

Warren had never fought or interacted with Theos before, so he wasn't familiar with the latter's aura.

I don't know if he's supposed to be Zeke's enemy or ally, so I'll hide my true identity for now.

At that thought, he pretended to recognize Theos. "Ah, it's you. Why did you intentionally lure me here?"

With a hideous smile, Theos exclaimed, "To kill you, of course! Now die!"

Colors drained from Warren's countenance. I didn't expect this guy to be Zeke's nemesis! It seems that he absolutely detests Zeke, too!

Hurriedly, he explained, "Have mercy! I'm not Zeke. In fact, I'm also an enemy of Zeke's. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, so you can consider us buddies!"

"Hmm?" Immediately, Theos halted his attack and released spiritual energy to examine Warren's body.

Warren was shocked when he sensed Theos' spiritual energy. Who is he? Why does he possess such a powerful spiritual energy? A spirit pill's energy is only one hundredth of the spiritual energy he's emanating! Regardless of who he is, he must be someone special.

Theos was confused as he inspected Warren. "You're not Zeke, so why do you have his aura and are this strong? You two must be related."

“I'm actually a shadow split from Zeke's body. That's why we have similar auras.”

Theos was shocked. "Shadow Split! But that's the Netherworld's unique black magic. Are you... Don't tell me you're related to the Netherworld."

"Indeed, I'm a member of the Netherworld. Elder Erebus is my master."

Hearing that excited Theos. "The Netherworld still exists! I didn't expect all four of the ancient races to live on. It must be fate that I've bumped into you. It would seem my destiny is to unite the Netherworld and Kush Clan to conquer the human race."

I can't believe he has the balls to say he wants to unite the Netherworld and Kush Clan! Who is he?

Astonished, Warren asked in a trembling voice, "Who are you? Why do you know about the existence of the Netherworld and Kush Clan?"

It surprised him because Kush Clan and the Netherworld were extremely secretive organizations. Only a handful of people knew they still existed since they hadn't shown themselves in Theos smiled. "I'm the master of Theos Island."

Warren screamed, "You're Theos!"

Upon snapping out of his shock, he fled without delay.

A After all, he and Erebus had been collecting Spirit Stones, so the Guardian of Mount Kush could construct the Soul Pinion Formation to trap and enslave Theos.

It was only natural for him to react like that.

Unfortunately, after Warren took one step away, he stopped. His movements were sealed as though he was trapped in a concrete block.

Unsurprisingly, it was Theos using spiritual energy to trap him.

Theos sneered, "You don't have my permission to slip away. Now, answer my questions honestly, or I shall grant you a pain worse than death. First question, why did you all come to Theos Island?”

"I don't know! I really don't!" Warren exclaimed. "The Guardian of Mount Kush and my master brought me here! I didn't want to come, but they forced me to! I've no idea what they're planning!”

“Lying to me, hmm?” Calmly, Theos snapped his finger, thrusting spiritual energy into Warren's nostrils.

As the spiritual energy wormed into Warren's body, it burned his internal organs like sulfur.

Needless to say, it was an agonizing experience.

Warren thought he was about to die from the pain.

His willpower instantly crumbed as he pleaded, "I'll tell you everything I know! Please... Ah, it hurts! Stop! Let me go! I'm going to die!"

Theos removed his spiritual energy from Warren's body.

Even still, the pain lingered in Warren's body as he sobbed, “The Guardian of

. Mount Kush and Elder Erebus want to capture you and steal the Fortuna you swallowed. This is their plan. It has nothing to do with me. I've never helped them do anything that'll hurt you."

Theos scoffed, “They can't defeat me even if they work together!"

"They're setting up a Soul Pinion Formation. My master told me that formation is designed to subdue Ancient Gods."

So, it really is the Soul Pinion Formation. I admit, I'm concerned. I'm unsure if I can resist its power. In that case, I can't just start a fight with the Guardian of Mount Kush. I need a plan. At the very least, I must destroy the formation.

Staring at Warren, Theos interrogated, "What's the progress on the construction of the formation?"

"It's almost done. We just need to collect a few more Spirit Stones."

Theos took a deep breath. No! It won't be easy to destroy the formation now even if it hasn't been completed yet because it still possesses tremendous power. I'm not sure if it can kill me at this stage, but it definitely will have no issue trapping or severely wounding me! I need to be smart about this.

Upon contemplating his move, he turned to Warren. "You have a way of approaching the Soul Pinion Formation, don't you?"

In order to protect his life, Warren had no choice but to betray his companions. "As long as you spare me, Lord Theos, I'll... I'll do whatever you want. Yes, I can approach the formation. Just tell me what to do, and I'll carry out your orders."

"Good." Theos nodded with satisfaction. "I'm going to borrow your ·body, enter the Soul Pinion Formation, and destroy it."

Knitting his eyebrow, Warren asked curiously, "How?"

Theos stepped toward Warren. "I'll take control of your body for a while."

"What?" Sensing danger, Warren backed away.

If he controls my body, it'll be no different from having my soul snatched away! He's going to kill me!

Terrified, Warren dashed away.

Of course, Theos wasn't going to give Warren a chance to do so.

Upon turning into a beam of light, Theos dove into Warren's body.

Warren's mind instantly turned blank as he lost consciousness.

Moments later, his body moved. He lowered his head, studied his limbs, and stretched his body. "This body seems to have been custom-made for me. It's so comfortable."
