"hehe!"
Seeing this guy dead, he didn't dare to try to escape again, Donald laughed and said, "Very good, you are a smart person and have no attempt to escape. Otherwise, the fate will be the same as this guy. Ghouls are undead creatures. Although they are just the residual species produced by the great arcanes who created vampires back then, they are also vampiric infectious. This infection has even mutated into a similar plague. As long as you scratch your skin a little, you will be infected with the undead disease, which will be a painful and long death process. And after infection and death, you will also become an ugly monster like them without souls!"
These words were not made up by intentionally deceiving the other party. There are also monsters like ghouls in this world, and their attributes and origins are surprisingly similar to those in Warcraft games and rumors in previous lives. It seems that some basic laws can be used between the two worlds.
After a pause, Donald's voice looked extremely groggy against the monster's hideous appearance.
"Same... your soul will be polluted by negative energy and become a pathetic undead creature. At that time, your gods may give up on you, the poor believer. And even in the end, you will retain a trace of the consciousness of being a living. Watching yourself gradually withering and rotting, and turning into a monster bit by bit, it will feel that life is worse than death!"
Donald's words almost collapsed the guy's psychological defense line, and he looked at the monster beside him with great fear.
"But you can rest assured that without my orders as my master, summoning creatures will not attack you."
As he said that, Donald left the terrified spy and summoned a summoning creature beside him, but he was the second-level army soul walker of the beast clan who once played a great role in him.
The spy saw Donald summoning another soul walker who looked like a tauren shaman among orcs, but he still didn't understand why. A ghoul was enough to deal with himself who was only close to the third-level warrior's combat power but was biased towards the assassin profession. So why should he summon another monster to do?
But soon, the spy learned what the other party’s approach was.
Because Donald has ordered the Soul Walker to cast soul chains on this spy and himself.
The ability of Soul Chain can connect up to four targets with the soul walker's own mind at the beginning. All units affected by Soul Chain can transfer 50% of the damage they suffer to other units.
And when the body and the mind are connected all the time, everyone's psychological thoughts will be known to the person connected to the other end.
After completing the role of the soul chain, Donald began to casually ask the spy who didn't know where he came from.
"Is your master aristocrat?"
"Is your master's title higher than mine..."
"Is your master's sphere of influence in the Stone City?"
"Your master's name is...?"
…………
Although Donald did not give a positive answer or simply kept silent every time he asked, he could not hide his inner psychological activities. Under such clever inquiry, Donald soon got the answer he wanted from the spy.
Although Donald was very quick to give a positive answer or simply kept silent every time he asked, he could not hide his inner shock and other psychological fluctuations. When he was secretly relieved at the end of the inquiry process, he did not know that under such clever inquiry, Donald had already unknowingly got the answer he wanted from him.
"It turned out that the consul of the North County sent you here. This viscount is really good at it! My parents died early and the stealing of our family's property and fiefs was not satisfied. Now, even I, the last heir of the Meliner family, do not intend to let go! Humph! But I, Donald Meliner, are not easy to mess with!"
The previous failure made the Viscount more cautious and cautious, so he paused some superficial activities and sent spies to mingle into the Dark Night Manor, wanting to find out Donald's trump card.
Another point that must be mentioned is that the Viscount and his dark forces were sent through intermediate organizations and had no direct contact with the Viscount's Mansion. Therefore, this spy who belongs to different organizations did not know that the last assassination was made by Mabek.
"How did you know!!! I didn't reveal any words! Any! What's going on..."
Leaving the spy who was still in fear, Donald found a chair and sat down secretly, thinking carefully about the meaning of Macbeck's actions.
“Mibek stole the property of our family decades ago, and I have great potential now…”
"Once I grow up, the first person I will definitely deal with is this old guy Macbeth! I really hate Macbeth's behavior back then."
"The Macbeck family has been standing in the North County for hundreds of years, and its strength is deeply rooted. It has always been an attempt to annex other territories around it. Naturally, it will not allow a hostile character like me to exist. However, on the surface, he must not dare to attack me, so the last assassination was probably Macbeth's hands behind his back! Maybe, the magician can't be separated from him!"
At this time, the spy also came to his senses. After all, he was not a fool, otherwise he would not have been trained as a spy by one force.
Soon he figured it out that the interrogation was summoned by the Minotaur and started after casting the spell. It must be that the Minotaur was cast just now, and some inexplicable spells revealed his thoughts.
"You are the devil!! You are the devil from the abyss..."
It is worth mentioning that due to the prophecy of hypnosis, charm, or dominance of humans in the spell school, the loss of factional spells such as enchantment is extremely serious, so most people would not know that ancient arcane masters have similar powers to master and control people's hearts and thoughts.
In the legend of this world, except for the gods, only demons from the abyss and evil creatures from other worlds are good at playing with and controlling the souls and thoughts of intelligent creatures. Thinking that all his secrets were known to the other party, the spy released despair from his heart, completely gave up resistance, and begged:
"Let me go! Master, I am just a little person who listens to others' orders! It doesn't have any obstacles to you! If you can let me go back, I will never reveal any news to Lord Viscount. Please believe me!"
Donald looked at the begging spy and said to him with a smile: "Little people are also useful. If you can do something small for me, I will not only let you go, but also give you unexpected benefits!"
A plan that came to mind temporarily made him dispel his previous plan to deal with the spy.
"You should also know clearly that even if Macbeth is a viscount, he is just a mortal. I can do whatever he can give you, and only Gods can give you except me!"
Donald's tone was full of temptation, and the spy who had seen the mage's tricks just now had already collapsed completely. As a little man, how could he not want to make a name for himself, and how could he not want to live a stable life?!
Donald's tone was full of temptation, and the spy who had seen the mage's methods just now had long been seized and was on the verge of collapse. As a small person, how could he not want to make a name for himself, and how could he not want to live a stable life?
For a moment, I was undecided in choosing between the crisis in front of me and the pressure from the master behind me. My face changed and I was hesitant and I was undecided.
In the end, between losing his life and betraying the original master, Mr. Spy chose the latter. After all, the fear given to him by the viscount was not strong after losing his life, and the soul would be tortured by a devil-like mage and could not rest in peace.
Moreover, the secret has been leaked. Even if he returns safely and reports everything that happens to his master, he will inevitably be killed by Mabek to silence him.
Donald's counterattack was successfully completed under this deterrence, and no one knew what Donald and the spy named Ade said in the room. After two hours, this Ade was quietly sent out of the manor by Donald and was not discovered by anyone.
After laying this foreshadowing, when the butler prepared for the items he needed to enter the battlefield, Donald, who was in a good mood, came to the Tree of Life alone.
"The Book of Truth, summons the heroes of the Night Elf clan to build the altar of the elders for me!"
As Donald finished speaking, an altar-style building similar to the Moon Well but in the shape of a golden sun, with an altar-style building with a construction area of ten times that of the Moon Well appeared before the Tree of Life. At the same time, Donald's elemental crystal stock instantly shrank by half. This was just built, and there would be a greater cost later!
The base of the elder's altar is made of unknown foundation stones with mysterious and exquisite patterns. On all sides are stone beams supported by four stone pillars. In the center, there is a sun totem made of gold.
Due to the stimulation of the previous demon attack, Donald was preparing to let go of his hands and try his best to improve his strength.
Even though Donald has the advanced artifact of the Book of Truth, he is not a true god and cannot do everything. However, he doesn't have to take some minor flaws to heart. Donald found a long time ago to solve the problem of strength in the Book of Truth, and also a way to deal with magicians and demons.
