Alex could not sense any murderous intent nor hostility from him.
As if he were a blade of grass or a tree, he stood quietly and watched Alex without any emotional
surge, forming an exceptional harmony with the surrounding nature.
After looking at him twice, Alex continued drinking water and even rinsed his face. Only then did he turn
around to look at the masked man.
The masked man finally said, âOnly you came?â
Alex froze for a moment as he was a little puzzled. âWhat did he mean?â
He nodded without saying anything.
The masked man closed his eyes. âEveryone is clever as a fox. just wait then!â
After wiping the water on his brow, Alex walked up to the shore and was about to leave. At this
moment, another two people came over: a male and a female.
The man looked about forty years old, whereas the woman was in her early thirties. Both of them were
wearing similar outfits as if they hailed from the same particular sect.
âOh, two people are already here!â The woman said with a smile, âGood! Since there are only a few
people now, how about we discuss it?â
Alex was even more puzzled. âWhatâs with this situation?â
The masked man said, âWhat do you guys want to discuss?â
The woman said, âLet me introduce myself. Iâm Lucille Antoinette. Heâs my senior, Emmerich
Goldilocks. Weâre from the Sky Seal Sect.â
âEmmerich Goldilocks?â The masked man smiled. âYour name is impressive.â
Emmerich said, âEmmerich means omnipotent.â
The masked man said, âThen, thatâs even more interesting.â
Lucille asked, âHow should we address you guys?â
The masked man said, âYou can call me Mask.â
âAnd you?â Emmerich asked Alex.
âDummy!â Alex replied.
Lucille giggled. âInteresting! Interesting! Fine, it doesnât matter what youâre called. What matters is that
we must join forces this time. Otherwise, someone will snatch away the Law Stones even if we find
them after reaching the secret realm. We will even lose our lives there in serious cases.â
Alex froze for a while again. âSecret realm? Law Stones? What the heck are those?â
The masked man said, âItâs not a problem to join forces, but I have a question. I heard that there are full
of traps inside Puppet Dungeon and the puppets have different levels. Iâm afraid it will be difficult to
deal with them alone. So how do we allocate the loots later?â
Lucille said, âOf course, weâll allocate according to needs. I have an earth attribute, so I only want
earth-attributed Law Stones. My senior has a fire attribute. What about you guys?â
Mask said, âI have a wind attribute.â
Alex said, âI have a lightning attribute.â
âGreat then. None of us has repeated attributes. In principle, the Law Stones of the respective attribute
will belong to the person with the corresponding attribute. Weâll share the loots of other Law Stones
equally,â Lucille said with a smile.
Alex did not say anything. He still did not know what the Law Stones were for.
But soon, he figured it out. The Law Stone was a kind of energy placed on the puppet, but it contained
the complete rule attribute. Thus, after gaining a certain amount of Law Stones of the same type, one
could utilize the energy within the Law Stones to break through the realm and achieve Immortalization.
After hearing the news, Alex was moved at once. The chance of finding the Phoenix Sect Sanctuary
was still very slim. But if this method could work now, it would simply be a good thing to have his wish
granted.
Hence⦠He had to join it.
Soon, someone came over hurriedly. After seeing the person who was coming over, Alex almost
jumped. He recognized this woman vividly.
âItâs you!â The woman recognized Alex as well. She stared daggers at him. âYouâre not dead yet?!â
