Kevin was noncommittal.

Bai Xiaowen continued his analysis.

"I noticed it when we were in the Lord's Hall. When I took out the Soul Stone, your breathing rate slowed down by 50%. Obviously, you were in an agitated state at that time. You took two deep breaths to calm your heartbeat down. "

"So, when you were appraising the soul stone, I was very careful to prevent you from swapping it out. I insisted on keeping the soul stone with me until you publicly announced the authenticity of the soul stone. Only then did I give it to you to unlock."

"After you unsealed the Soul Stone, you even kindly taught me how to recharge the Soul Stone. I thought you asked me to go to the Frozen Tomb because you had some tasks for me, but you said you didn't. So, I was more than 90% sure that you were after my Soul Stone. You deliberately made me leave Pointy Helmet City and come to such a remote place so that it would be easier for you to snatch it! "

There was one more thing. Bai Xiaowen's Class-Change Mission was S- level. How could it be so easy? Kevin's greed must be one of the difficulties of the Class-Change Mission. Of course, this was "off-the-record information." Bai Xiaowen wouldn't say it out loud.

Kevin took a deep breath. The corner of his mouth twitched. "Good analysis. You're very observant. I underestimated your intelligence, Dior S Kail Bloom. But I'm curious. You knew it was a trap. Why did you barge into it? "

Bai Xiaowen pursed his lips.

"Master Kevin, you were able to pinpoint my location. You must have done something to the Soul Stone, right?" Bai Xiaowen asked.

Kevin nodded. "Arcane Beacon. It's a simple spell."

"Since you can pinpoint the location of the Soul Stone, have you ever thought that someone else can do it too?" Bai Xiaowen asked.

Kevin frowned. "You mean … the Northshire Abbey?"

Bai Xiaowen nodded.

In fact, Bai Xiaowen had guessed that the Northshire Abbey could pinpoint the location of the Soul Stone a long time ago.

As the former Chief Alchemist of the Royal Family, Falca must be good at disguising himself. Why was he still being chased around? Why was Gloria, the Royal Knight, still able to cross the border and find the nest of the Plague Rats when she was unfamiliar with the place?

Obviously, it couldn't be explained by luck.

Bai Xiaowen purposely stayed in Pointy Helmet City for three days. He waited until the combat nuns were in position before he went to the Frozen Tomb to lure them here.

Of course, the purpose of luring them here was not to kill these nuns, but to increase the number of people who knew about it.

As long as the nuns, Kevin wouldn't dare to do anything to Bai Xiaowen. As an opposing faction, the nuns obviously wouldn't help Kevin hide it. On the contrary, they were happy to see the powerful Chief Sorcerer being chased by the Resistance and forced to leave the Resistance.

"Master Kevin, I'm afraid the next battle will be very dangerous," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile. "You'll have no problem facing that group of nuns, but with my small body, I'm afraid I can't even take one hit from them. If I die, you'll lose the ability to cast spells … "

"I don't need you to remind me." Kevin's face was pale.

"I'm just making a suggestion," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile. "Look, the Soul Stone is full of energy. Can you give it back to me? I'll absorb the power of the Soul Stone and my strength will increase a lot. At least I'll be able to protect myself. "

"So that's your goal." Kevin snorted. He finally understood why Bai Xiaowen was luring monsters everywhere and went deep into the tomb. It was to force him to kill high-level undead monsters and replenish the Soul Stone with high-quality soul energy!

Thinking of this, Kevin's heart was filled with horror. Bai Xiaowen's plan was too meticulous. It was like a spider weaving a web. He, the Chief Sorcerer of Pointed Helmet City, had unknowingly fallen into it and become Bai Xiaowen's pawn.

However, after the horror, it was followed by anger.

Kevin said coldly, "Put away your suggestion. I have a better idea … That is to kill everyone in the way! A few bitches from the North County Monastery want to stop my plan? Dior S Kail Bloom, you're too naive! "

The nuns from the North County Monastery advanced quickly. The blazing Holy Light and loud explosions were gradually approaching.

Kevin and Bai Xiaowen climbed up a tall mausoleum and hid behind a tall tombstone. From this angle, they could already see a row of five cloaked figures.

Bai Xiaowen hid behind Kevin and whispered, "Master Kevin, one last question. How are you compared to the leader of the Glorious Knights of the Empire?"

"What?" Kevin was shocked.

Among the five cloaked figures, the one in front slowly took off her cloak, revealing a luxurious dark blue armor and a golden cloak. The equipment that was deliberately restrained radiated light, and a powerful aura surged with each breath.

The leader of the Glorious Knights of the Lionheart Empire, Royal Knight Gloria!

"We're very close. I can feel the vague coordinates of the evil Soul Stone!" Gloria said. "Continue advancing!"

"Damn rebels. They have no respect for the light. They must be here to recharge the evil Soul Stone!" a nun said sternly. "The light will purify the fallen!"

Kevin, who was hiding behind the tombstone, obviously recognized Gloria. His face became even paler. "Damn it. How did you know Gloria was hiding in this pool?"

Bai Xiaowen whispered, "Master Kevin, did you forget? You told me yourself that Falca had been escorted back to the Empire. Gloria is in charge of the Soul Stone. She will definitely come when she hears about it. "

Bai Xiaowen was 90% sure, but after activating Insight, he directly detected Gloria's name.

If it was just a few combat nuns, Kevin was confident that he could kill them all. However, with Gloria, the situation was completely different.

Gloria was the one who had forced Falca into hiding and even forced him to flee all the way to Earth! Even if Falca absorbed the energy of the Soul Stone and became much stronger, he could only last a few rounds against Gloria.

Fortunately, Bai Xiaowen's appearance had changed. She was no longer Bai Xiaowen from Earth, but the handsome Nordic Dior Kail Bloom. Gloria would definitely not recognize her.

Kevin's heart was heavy.

Did he really have to return the Soul Stone?
