Starting With 3 S-Class Talents

After hearing Vincent’s emotionless comment, Dave could not help but fall into silence.

The tragedy in the cave happened many years ago. Dave believed that there were many similar tragedies in other cities of the Elf Race, especially those under the control of the twelve apostles!

These incidents did not happen by chance. It was instead considered normal behavior for those under the rule of the Demon Race!

“As long as the Demon Race is not eliminated, the Elf Race will never have peace!” said Dave with a deep voice, his eyes filled with determination.

Since the beginning of the journey to Bright Moon City, everything he had seen and heard had strengthened his determination to fight against the Demon Race!

Vincent patted Dave’s shoulder lightly and said seriously, “It’s a good thing that you have determination! But you must remember that fighting against the demons is a very difficult and dangerous thing. You must keep a clear mind. Nothing can be done with just a hot-blooded heart!”

Dave nodded. He then quickly walked into the depths of the cave holding a long knife in his hand.

Vincent sighed gently and followed behind Dave to protect him.

The two of them traveled through the winding cave quickly. They soon arrived at the deepest part of the underground. They noticed that the number of corpses around them was decreasing. They had to walk for a while before they could spot one.

Vincent and Dave felt as if they had experienced the entire massacre that had happened in the past. They were observing the whole incident closely.

“It seems like Jessica started the massacre of her entire excavation team from here. After the tunnel was completed, she slaughtered the soldiers one by one in front of everyone’s eyes. After that, her team realized the danger and began to run toward the top of the entrance. Jessica chased after them all the way and killed more and more of them. In the end, when they were about to escape from the tunnel, Jessica caught up and killed everyone!”

Vincent looked at the bones beneath his feet and analyzed softly, “It seems like Jessica started the massacre of her entire excavation team from here. After the tunnel was completed, she slaughtered the soldiers one by one in front of everyone’s eyes. After that, her team realized the danger and began to run toward the top of the entrance. Jessica chased after them all the way and killed more and more of them. In the end, when they were about to escape from the tunnel, Jessica caught up and killed everyone!”

Dave remained silent, but his eyes were filled with killing intent. The fingers on his right hand that was gripping the hilt of his knife had turned extremely pale due to excessive force. At the same time, he quickened his pace and passed through the bend in front of him.

After turning the bend, Dave’s vision instantly brightened. This was because he could see a light that was unique to the Origin Divine Earth at the end of the straight tunnel dozens of meters away. At the same time, an elf figure was also reflected. He was kneeling on the ground as if he was holding a ceremony.

“Darren!”

Dave let out an angry roar. However, the figure in front of him did not seem to have heard him. The figure continued to kneel on the ground and repeated the movements required for the ceremony.

Vincent, who was behind Dave, could not help but frown slightly and said softly, “The situation is not right. Let’s go closer and take a look!”

Dave nodded and suppressed the anger in his heart as he slowly walked forward.

They walked dozens of meters before stopping. When Dave and Vincent were about ten meters behind the figure, they finally saw the figure that was kneeling on the ground clearly.

It was a Dark Elf in armor. The ground he was kneeling on had been set up with a spell formation. The dark and deep light proved that the spell formation was still in operation. There was a vertical shaft at the end of the underground tunnel in front of that Dark Elf. At that moment, the Origin Divine Earth was flowing out of the shaft and into a storage ring in the center of the formation.

“Hahaha, collect more! Collect more! With this Origin Divine Earth, I can become the new city lord of Serene Spring City, or even become a new apostle. The Great God Gajero will definitely reward me heavily!”

The figure kneeling on the ground was mumbling to himself in a crazed manner. His fingers were constantly moving as he spoke. He was wearing ten resplendent storage rings. The faint but clear light just so happened to reflect the individual’s crazed and evil side profile.

“He is Darren?”

Dave sighed in disbelief. The Dark Elf in front of him was undoubtedly seizing the Origin Divine Earth, but he appeared to be more like a madman. How could such a Dark Elf become the Vice City Lord of Serene Spring City?

Vincent patted Dave’s shoulder gently and pointed at the storage ring on the Dark Elf’s hand. He frowned and said, “The Origin Divine Earth has the ability to construct space, so whether it’s space-type spells or space-type special items, it’s difficult to store the Origin Divine Earth for a long time. Look at the light on those rings. It’s very likely that it is overflowing because he took too much of the Origin Divine Earth!”

“He actually took so much!”

Dave exclaimed with a shocked face and strode forward. He raised his knife to the other party’s neck.

“Stop!”

Following Dave’s angry roar, the crazy Dark Elf soon stopped moving. He turned his head slowly to look at Dave and said with joy, “Black Elf? There’s another outsider! How did you find this place?”

Dave said coldly, “Even if you hide at the end of the world, as long as you dare to steal the Origin Divine Earth that belongs to the Elf Race, I will find you and stop you!”

The Dark Elf did not show any expression. Instead, he said in a deep voice, “Do you know who you are talking to? I am the future City Lord of Serene Spring City, Darren who is about to be promoted to an apostle! Hurry up and stop this unreasonable action of yours. Immediately kneel and beg me for mercy. I might even pardon your sins!”

Dave narrowed his eyes slightly. He shook his knife and cut a shallow bloody groove on Darren’s neck. He said, “So you’re Darren. We’re looking for you today! Now that Jessica is dead and the massacre in Serene Spring City has been successfully stopped by us, you’ve lost everything now. Put down the Origin Divine Earth and leave with us immediately!”

Darren crossed his fingers and clenched them tightly. He did not care about the blade on his neck at all. He shook his head repeatedly and said, “Hand over the Origin Divine Earth? Impossible! That is absolutely impossible! This is the stepping stone for me to become an apostle. The Great God Gajero, has promised me that as long as I drain all the Origin Divine Earth here and help him complete a small matter, I will be able to enter the Imperial City directly and become an incomparably honorable demon!”

Dave saw that Darren kept shaking his head despite having a few wounds on his neck. Even though blood was gushing out, he was still unmoved. He felt that Darren must have gone crazy!

However, the other apostles who were collecting the Origin Divine Earth were never in such a state. Why was Darren reacting so oddly?

At that moment, Vincent grabbed Dave’s shoulder and pulled him behind him. He said in a deep voice, “Be careful, this is a trap!”

“Trap, what trap?”

Dave looked at Vincent’s back blankly. He did not understand what Vincent meant.

Vincent looked Darren up and down. He said calmly, “I think you must have thought that this guy had gone crazy just now. For a Dark Elf who is crazy, you must have thought that he was defenseless at that moment, right?”

Dave was shocked after hearing that. This was because it was indeed true.

As he was facing Darren who seemed to have gone mad, Dave had given up on the idea to kill him. After all, from a certain point of view, a person losing his mind was already the most severe punishment.

Vincent, on the other hand, chuckled. He pointed at Darren in front of him and said, “The moment you were hesitating, a trace of killing intent flashed in this Dark Elf’s eyes. He was clearly taking the opportunity to consider whether to launch a sneak attack on you. If I hadn’t pulled you away in time, I’m afraid that you would have already died under his hands!”

“What? He’s faking it!”

Dave was not an idiot. After hearing Vincent’s words, he immediately looked at Darren vigilantly.

Darren stopped pretending. He picked up the eleventh storage ring from the ground and tied it to the ring on his necklace. He then stood up and looked at Vincent. He kept sneering, “I know you! You killed Jessica in Bright Moon City and went to Devil Flame City to kill Andre. You even defeated the projection of God Gajero by yourself. I know that it’s almost impossible to kill someone in front of you, so I showed some hesitation just now. And because of this hesitation, that kid and I both survived, right?”

Dave once again fell into a state of shock after hearing that. Based on Darren’s words, it was not hard to tell that the reason why he did not attack him earlier was that he realized that Vincent had long noticed that something was wrong with him.

As long as he dared to make a move, Vincent would kill him at the first opportunity!

As he was fearful of Vincent’s strength, Darren did not choose to fight to the death, and because of this, Dave had saved his life!

Dave could not help but shudder in fear. At the same time, he realized how important Vincent’s warning was. He had forgotten to maintain his calm along the way. If not for Vincent protecting him by his side, he would have long paid a painful price for this!

Vincent looked at Darren, who had a calm expression whilst answering his questions. He frowned and asked, “Just now, you mentioned that Gajero has already made a promise to you. In addition to taking away all the Origin Divine Earth under Serene Spring City, you also have to complete a small mission to become an apostle. What exactly is the mission? And how did you contact him?”

After hearing Vincent’s question, Darren first nodded with a look of admiration. He then smiled and said, “Every believer who is loyal to my lord will be able to hear the lord at the critical moment! Just when I came here to collect the Origin Divine Earth, the Great God Gajero conveyed a message to me. That is, these Origin Divine Earth alone are not enough to make me an apostle! As long as I help him complete an additional mission, not only can I accept the gift to become a demon, but I can also become the leader of the demons in the Imperial City. From then on, I will become the true king of the Elf World! And that mission is very simple. I will use myself as bait. When the two of you arrive here, I will kill you both on the spot!”

As he spoke, Darren’s tone suddenly changed, and a cold light burst out from his eyes. At the same time, a black light screen suddenly emerged from the pitch-black spell formation beneath his feet. It charged toward Vincent with great power mixed within!
