“Still not certain.”

Li Ang used Spiritual Traction, trying to gather the spirits within the space.

The traction efficiency was very slow, the spirits were too scattered.

He increased the Magic Power output, suddenly feeling itching on his left arm.

Tsk, this Demon Curse.

The curse like a bone disease had entangled him for several days, he gradually understood its condition, feeling that the rapid emergence of keratin spikes was actually not induced by using spirituality, but simply the effect of this alien curse being so quick.

Feeling the effect of the curse, his Spiritual Control was stronger than before, the elusive weak spirits were still being drawn, gathering in his palm and forming a glowing ball of spirit.

Switching back to the material world view, Li Ang gazed at his palm, now nothing was visible to the naked eye, but could be sensed.

Elaphia and the surrounding investigation team members weren’t weaklings, their perception was strong enough to notice the concentration of spirits.

“Indeed, it requires a High-tier Curse Master.”

Aifei’s eyes were filled with admiration.

“What is the nature of this ball of spirit?” she asked.

The nature of the spirit determines what magic it will attract to do, although professions other than witch can perceive spirit, understanding its specific spirituality is impossible for them.

“Very intriguing.”

In Li Ang’s eyes, it constantly changed, full of plasticity.

“It only needs a specific Magic Power, which should come from its original owner.

“Once it receives this Magic Power, it will produce different effects based on the owner’s needs.”

Elaphia asked, “Can you confirm if the original possessor of the spirit was a Demon?”

“Eighty to ninety percent sure, I haven’t seen this kind of spirituality before, but I don’t think it could fall off a human.”

Li Ang noticed the distinctions upon arrival, which invigorated the investigators, looking at him with respect.

The Alchemist said, “We also believe the victim’s dissolution wasn’t due to acid magic, but was attacked by a kind of biomass with strange Magic Power.”

“Then this is the troublesome kind,” Elaphia said.

Li Ang walked out of the room, faintly feeling the scattered and weak spirits existed on the street, albeit very faint.

In one or two days, there wouldn’t be anything left.

“Can you trace the directions of the marks?”

Li Ang tried to continue attracting these spirits, but the ones outside were too weak, catching them almost broke the trail.

“I may need to make other attempts. If failed, we’ll need a carpet search for these peculiar spirits.”

“You go ahead.” Elaphia was decisive: “After all, before you came, there was no clue.”

“Alright.”

Li Ang took out an unrefined Salamander Egg.

“What are you going to——”

Blondie Douding seemed to sense something, watching Li Ang directly draw Dragon’s Blood from the egg.

The pure Essence of Dragon is the Level 9 material “Dragon Factor”, the ordinary Sub-dragon’s bloodline can be said to be diluted, but still contains the Power of Dragon.

Li Ang sensed another discordant feeling brought about by his Tier Six Dragon Summoner faculties.

By the time the breeding spaces were opened, Li Ang wouldn’t be able to refine all the Salamander Eggs, so he decided to consume them here.

As the pale gray Sub-dragon Blood approached the collected spirituality, the two immediately began to fuse, the Dragon Blood started to churn.

If he weren’t a Dragon Summoner, such contact would only end in explosion, he precisely used the skills from both professions to ensure the stable operation of this change.

Gray-black particles kept falling from the Sub-dragon Blood, blood became more pure, and began to show a golden color.

Golden blood flew towards the spirit ball, combining with it, turning into a dazzling powder of light.

Its brilliance contained almost all color changes, dreamlike, instantly attracting everyone’s gaze.

At that moment, the system also showed a prompt.

“Identified the intruder’s true form.”

Li Ang said to the Order Knights: “It’s a Fairy Dragon.”

[Fairy Dragon Scale Powder]

[The scale powder shed from Fairy Dragon’s dragon wings, they are the medium for this unpredictable Dragon Species Demon to manifest various magic changes, containing incredible power]

[Tier: 7]

[Spirituality; Changes the effect according to the Power of Dragon]

[Purpose: Equipment Creation, Casting Materials, Alchemy]

“Fairy Dragon?” Some of the Order Knights present hadn’t even heard of the term.

“Isn’t that a variant of fairy tales?”

Li Ang scratched his head. Indeed, he himself had never heard of such a creature in Nebis, only gaining some understanding from Farina’s explanation of the Dragon Ancestor.

If he hadn’t encountered various fantasy works before his travels, he might not have believed in the existence of such a creature.

Aelphia testified, “Fairy Dragons do exist.”

Although she had never seen one herself and was still skeptical, she judged from Farina’s attitude during the explanation that the Dragon Witch was not lying.

Li Ang raised his hand, and the cluster of scale powder began to slowly attract the spirituality scattered in the air, which must have fallen during the Fairy Dragon’s casting and was now being re-gathered by the complete scales.

“Let’s go.”

Following the direction of the traction, it was the path the Fairy Dragon took after passing through the Arcane Shield.

Li Ang and Aelfia traced the path of the Fairy Dragon, and along the way, Douding said, “Did the Fairy Dragon kill civilians for food?”

“I don’t know.”

Li Ang had killed many dragons, but he completely didn’t know about creatures like the Fairy Dragon.

The most common are Winged Dragons, which are divided into bipedal or quadrupedal. If not for Farina, he wouldn’t even know they originated from the Dragon Ancestor, the “Black and Crimson Twins.”

The rare ones he killed include the Flying Snake and the Wyrm Dragon. If it weren’t for Farina, almost no one would consider them dragons, and they would simply be named after specific worms.

He once visited an island called “Tazuo Island,” where there was a legend of a mysterious creature with a serpent body and two claws. It was directly called the “Tazuo Worm.” At that time, the old Soul Apex took on a task to investigate the existence of this creature, and finally, Li Ang and his party found the demon in the depths of the rocky terrain.

Thinking back, if it weren’t for Farina, that mission would likely have failed.

Something like a Sea Serpent is even more unlikely to be seen, as where in Nebis is there a sea?

“What I’m more puzzled about is how it passed through the Arcane Shield?”

The cluster of scale powder in Li Ang’s hand was only Tier 7, and its owner shouldn’t exceed Tier 8. Even a Legendary Level super-large demon could be blocked by the shield for a while, so how could it be penetrated by a Fairy Dragon of this level?

The two pursued the traces, passing by some shops.

Sweet shops, gift shops, toy shops, clothing stores…

“These are all places little kids would go to,” Li Ang said.

“It seems there’s some truth to the folklore; fairies are indeed childlike, and now their source is doing similar things…”

Li Ang speculated with his head down, not noticing that Aelfia had initially been looking back at those shops. Hearing him, her expression paused, and she quickly turned her head: “Yes, yes.”

The two chased to a tavern.

Upon seeing them, a server immediately came forward, but the owner was even faster, almost jumping over the counter to rush to them.

“Anything urgent for the both of you?”

The owner, smiling broadly, dismissed the server and personally attended to them.

He apparently recognized Aelfia.

Inside the tavern, some scantily clad women walked back and forth, and Blondie Douding smirked, “Feeling nervous?”

“What do you mean?” The owner, sweating, forced a laugh to ease the atmosphere.

Li Ang knew that in the Old Town, the biggest offenses these taverns might be involved in were providing flesh trade, but today they weren’t here to investigate that, and Aelfia wasn’t going to pursue it for now.

She surveyed the counter and surroundings: “Has anything strange happened in your tavern?”

“No, nothing.”

The owner replied without hesitation, but faced with this famous leader of the Order Flame Corps, who was questioning him, he began to doubt his certainty.

Li Ang said, “That thing drank at the counter.”

“It can transform into a person?”

“Perhaps it was using an illusion technique.”

Before encountering the Star Soul, Li Ang wasn’t sure if there existed demons that could transform into humans.

The owner became more nervous: “What do you mean, is a fugitive in my tavern?”

“Last night, anyone special come to drink?” Li Ang asked.

The owner couldn’t provide an answer, wiped the sweat off his forehead, and pointed at the surrounding Sky Knights: “Aren’t they all special?”

He was right; Adventurers in the Old Town didn’t care about attire since practicality was the priority. As such, they could be seen wearing mismatched, gaudily colorful equipment, some of which didn’t even fit, looking quite comical.

In a place like Flower City, they’d be laughed at, but true Adventurers were used to it.

“Such questions won’t have answers in this area.”

Aelfia shook her head: “Anyone with different behavior before and after, or who even disappeared?”

The owner was taken aback, and then hesitated, while Li Ang noticed his emotions started to become off.
