Chapter 58: Mission Completed
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The man in black did not answer Karuman. Instead, he started to look around nervously. He even released his magical power to sense if there were other people around him because he knew that Karuman had a younger brother. They often killed and plundered together. Now that Karuman had appeared here, his younger brother Saruman might also be nearby. If he suddenly appeared, he would be in danger.
However, after checking carefully, he found that in the vicinity, there was only Karuman. He then felt relieved. He looked solemnly at Karuman opposite him. “If he is alone, I can still fight him,” the man in black thought.
The reason why he had recognized Karuman was because their organization had received a mission more than ten years ago, which was to kill the two brothers, Karuman and Saruman. At that time, their organization had sent out more than ten people, and the two in the lead were even experts of the Great Archmage realm. With so many people attacking together, they had thought it would be an easy mission. However, in the end, they could only find the corpses of these people, but the two brothers were never found again. At that time, this man in black was originally also one of the members on the mission. However, he had a breakthrough at the last minute and was at a critical juncture, so he did not go. This was why he was able to escape the calamity. Nonetheless, he had always believed that if he had gone then, these two would certainly have been killed. As such, when he saw Karuman, he remembered him.
Now that he saw that of the two brothers, there was only Karuman, his thoughts became active. Perhaps he could strike and kill the other party. In this way, he would be able to complete the mission which had been suspended for ten years. Now, the reward was generous for that mission. This time, his trip was a series of twists and turns, and also good luck. Not only would he be able to complete the mission from ten years ago, he could also be getting a gold-tier magical weapon. This was great.
As he thought about this, he suddenly activated his magical power, and a large number of flying insects flew out from his clothes. They buzzed continuously, and in a short while, an area of a 50-meter radius around him was densely packed with flying insects. One would wonder how he could hide so many of them on his body.
Looking at the dense swarm of flying insects which looked like black clouds, Karuman sneered in disdain and said, “I was wondering what this was about.. It turns out to be a creature-based Great Archmage!” Creature-based magical power was a very unorthodox school of magical power. The mainstream of this school of magical power was the nurture of some powerful magical creatures which would be released during combat to fight the enemy. And the other party who nurtured such a large group of flying insects was from an even more unorthodox school of magical power. However, when Karuman saw the other party’s flying insects, he was full of contempt. “Of all the people, you have to bump into me. For the past few days, I’ve suffered a full belly of grievances. It’s just great that I can vent my anger on you.”
With that said, Karuman activated his magical power, and a huge magic formation appeared beneath his feet. Huge flames rose, and then the flames rolled backwards, pouncing directly at the flying insects! Karuman mainly cultivated fire-based magical power. If it was against a powerful magical creature, it would be a little difficult, but the other party was only using small flying insects. Against his fire-based magical power, there was simply nothing much to see.
On the other side, Romo had opened the System. Now that Ron was in danger, the first thing Romo wanted to do was to rely on the power of the System to resolve it. However, he could not find out where the danger had come from with the Visitation Talisman.
Aren’t those few assassins already dead? Why is there still danger? Is there some powerful enemy on the way? However, there is still Karuman, right? Hasn’t this guy also gone over to secretly protect Ron? Where is he now? Damn this guy, he is really unreliable.
[Ding… Urgent mission accomplished. Received 5 Super Experience Talismans.]
[Ding… Received a Faith Candle.]
[Ding… Received a Spirit Calming Talisman.]
[Ding… Received a God of Fortune Talisman.]
Just as Romo was thinking about how he should deal with Karuman later, the System notifications sounded. The mission had been completed, and even the rewards had been given.
Romo was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled. He had experienced such a situation before, so he naturally knew what was going on. The danger that had threatened Ron must have been averted, and the only person who could have averted the danger was likely Karuman.
Romo carefully sensed the magic runes which had been left on Karuman’s soul and immediately detected that Karuman’s aura was weak. Romo was stunned for a moment. Then, he understood. Just now, Karuman must have fought with someone and expended a lot of energy. He might even have been injured, so he became in this state. It seemed that he had wronged him earlier.
“This servant is not bad. Not only is he able to protect my descendant, he is also able to help me complete the mission. I do not even need to spend my Faith Points,” Romo said with satisfaction. He was very pleased with Karuman this time.
Since the danger had been averted, Romo did not have to worry about Ron. He immediately opened the System interface to check out the rewards. Five Super Experience Talismans. There was nothing more to say, he used them directly. All the experience had been converted into his own strength, surging into his body. Romo felt a sense of comfort, and then his strength increased to that of a level-4 Spirit Demon. Indeed, the higher the level, the more experience needed. Currently, these five Super Experience Talismans were only enough for Romo to advance by one level.

The Faith Candle was also a good item. It could double the Faith Points obtained and last for a month. Romo had asked the System previously, this item was not even sold in the System Shop. It could only be obtained through missions. And, one could not get it from each and every mission. It was a very rare tool.
[Spirit Calming Talisman: Upon use, all family members in the family clan will experience the calming effect. This effect will last for a month. Spirit Calming: It can enable a person to enter into meditation faster. The effect of meditation will be enhanced.]
[God of Fortune Talisman: It can increase the family clan’s luck for wealth by 100% for a month.]
These two tools were also very good. The Spirit Calming Talisman, in short, could increase one’s cultivation speed. The God of Fortune Talisman could allow the family clan to amass wealth faster. Romo used them immediately.
On the other side, on a desolate mountain, Karuman looked at a corpse under his feet. This corpse was that of the man in black who had fought with him just now. But now, this man in black was already dead, and his body was crawling with all kinds of disgusting bugs.. These bugs were gnawing at his body continuously, and in a few moments, he would be all eaten up.
