The mysterious person clearly wanted to drag the Stone of Destruction down with him.

He even did not hesitate to drag the big shot out.

However, the Stone of Destruction did not fall for that.

The big shot had a long way to go. It was impossible to know in a short period of time.

As for after?

When the time came, when it obtained the tier 9 energy, even if the big shot wanted to catch it, it would not be so easy.

Thinking of this, the Stone of Destruction said disdainfully, “Don’t scare me with the big shot. My duty is not to the human in front of me. Moreover, weren’t you watching the show when I was fighting? Now that I have consumed a lot of energy, why? Can’t I recover? Even your donkey can’t be used like this, right?”

The Stone of Destruction’s words stunned the mysterious man.

He thought to himself, ‘When did this guy become so smart? It actually didn’t come no matter what I said!’

‘Sigh, there’s no other way. I can only go on my own.’

Thinking of this, the mysterious man shook his head.

This guy clearly didn’t plan to attack again.

Although the mysterious man glanced at the humans behind the Stone of Destruction.

Thinking of the matter of these little ants attacking him, his face immediately revealed some displeasure.

So he said to the Stone of Destruction, “Since you’re not coming, then go finish your mission and kill those little ants. Is that okay?”

When the Stone of Destruction heard that, it originally wanted to stall for time.

After all, if it just rested like this, that old fellow would definitely not let it be so comfortable.

Seeing that it took the initiative to remind it, its face immediately lit up with joy, and it hurriedly said, “Alright, alright. Let’s see what I can do.”

With that said, it took a deep breath and pounced at the group of humans.

Seeing that the Stone of Destruction had made its move, the mysterious man no longer looked at the Stone of Destruction. Instead, he stared at Klein in front of him, revealing a hint of cruelty.

However, Klein didn’t care. Instead, he looked at the mysterious man with interest.

“You’re finally out. I thought you would only come out after I had a showdown with the Stone of Destruction,” Klein said.

“Oh, it looks like you’re waiting for me?” The mysterious man said, “When did you discover me? You’re not surprised or afraid at all.”

The mysterious man was right.

There were two powerful demon beasts in the space. Any one of them was enough to make Klein suffer.

If they were to join forces, Klein probably wouldn’t be able to withstand them no matter how strong he was.

But now, judging from his expression, he didn’t seem to care at all. Clearly, he had been prepared.

This made the mysterious man very curious.

“I’m not waiting for you, but I miss you. It’s been more than ten days since we last met, right? I miss you so much that I want to kill you at any time!”

Klein curled his lips into a smile.

“Kill me? Why? I remember that we don’t have much enmity, right?” the mysterious man said indifferently.

“No grudges? Your arrangements along the way are very perfect. Every move was a killing move. How much time do you think I can give you?”

“You know?” The mysterious man smiled and said, “It’s just a pity that none of these arrangements were able to kill you. You’re really lucky. However, clearly, your good luck has ended this time!”

Seeing him admit to it, the corners of Klein’s mouth curled up slightly.

As expected, all of this was arranged by this fellow.

His goal was clearly to prevent the humans in the catacombs world from reaching the second level.

But why did he do that?

What exactly was on the second level?

To allow this group of people to use such a precious descending spell, a Stone of Destruction that was already at the peak of tier 8, to block it?

“What exactly are you plotting? The first level of the catacombs has already allowed us to leave, so why are you still stopping us?” Klein asked.

“Heh heh.” The mysterious man laughed. His pitch-black eyes flashed with countless blue flames. “You won’t know. Furthermore, you are about to die, so there’s no need for you to know.”

“Are you afraid?” Klein said.

“Are you joking?”

Klein chuckled and said, “If I’m already a dead person in your eyes, it won’t be easy to fulfill a dead person’s dying wish? Do you think that you can’t kill me, so you don’t dare to satisfy me?”

Klein seemed to have seen through the mysterious man.

“Can’t kill you?”

Just as he said that, the mysterious man’s robe fluttered despite the lack of wind.

A powerful pressure emanated from his body.

Upon sensing the aura, Klein’s body instantly swayed. Clearly, he was unable to withstand the aura.

Indeed, the mysterious man was a tier 9 powerhouse after all. Although he was in the early stages, the gap between the two was still very large.

Seeing that Klein couldn’t withstand it, the mysterious man said again, “You said that I can’t kill you?”

“Of course! If not, why didn’t you say it?” Klein still said indifferently.

“Hmph, there’s no harm in telling you. It’s because…”

Just as the mysterious man was about to speak, he suddenly felt something and hurriedly shut up.

“Hmph, there’s no need to say more. I definitely won’t tell you such things. As for the answer, we’ll talk about it after you survive.”

Klein frowned.

Just as the mysterious man was about to speak, he suddenly felt an inexplicable energy appear.

It instantly entered the mysterious man’s body.

This caused the mysterious man to shut up.

It seemed like the faction behind the mysterious man didn’t want him to get an answer.

With this in mind, Klein shook his head and didn’t delve any further.

Then, he asked again, “In that case, why don’t you tell me who wants to kill me?”

“Who am I?” After hearing that, the mysterious man smiled and said, “Don’t you know very well?”

“Oh?”

Klein’s brows furrowed. From top to bottom, there were a large number of mysterious men in front of him.

What does this mean?

Could it be?

Before Klein could figure it out, the mysterious man spoke again.

“You’ve been in that room before, right? The remnants inside are missing. They should be in your hands, right?”

“What?”

Klein’s expression changed drastically as he stared at the mysterious person in front of him. “You’re Raksha?”

“Heh heh, I never expected someone to mention this name. It’s such an honor!”

With that said, the mysterious person lifted the hat he was wearing and spoke.

After the hat was taken off, Raksha’s face was revealed.

Upon seeing his face, Klein couldn’t help but gasp.

‘What kind of face is this!’

It was extremely skinny, as though it was a piece of dried wood. There were wrinkles all over it.

Although he was humanoid, he didn’t look like a human at all. Instead, he looked like a ghoul, making him look extremely strange.

Especially those eyes!

In those pitch-black eyes, two green flames slowly flickered.

It was more like a ghost than a human!

This was Raksha!

Klein took a deep breath and barely suppressed the excitement in his heart.

He never expected that Raksha, whom he had been searching for for a long time, would appear in front of him like this!

This should be the strongest boss in the first level of the catacombs world, right?

The battle today would probably not be that easy to fight!

“I didn’t think that you would be able to reach this stage. Honestly, it really surprised me!”

“Do you know? You are not the first person to come here, nor are you the first person to face me. However, you are indeed the first person to grow up so quickly and be so unpredictable.”

“However, it is precisely because of this that your time of death has come early!”
