Collectors of Beauty World

Chapter 98 The Last Dark Tribe

Lu Xiao's thinking didn't last long when the door of the bookstore was kicked open.A black policewoman rushed in with a pistol.

As soon as he walked in, he stared directly at Ash.

"Don't move, raise your hands." Ash raised his hands very professionally.

The black policewoman took out a portrait for comparison and stepped forward to lean Ash against the table.

Only then did Lu Xiao remember that in the hands of the human police, this guy Ash was most likely a serial murderer.Even at the level of a perverted killer.

After all, this guy has killed countless evil spirits in more than 20 years.Outsiders don't know these things.In the eyes of the police, this is a super serial killer operating around.

And Ash's way of action perfectly fits this character.

Amanda was a little nervous, you could tell from the fact that she was alone.Her current actions are actually out of order.

Because she had just been forced to take a leave of absence.The reason was that she shot her partner.

Traces at the scene indicated that his partner was indeed suspected of assaulting her.But she couldn't explain the reason clearly, she just said that her partner seemed to be possessed by a demon.

It is so natural that it cannot be explained clearly.Therefore, I was immediately forced to take a leave of absence.

But privately she has not given up pursuing the case.Even targeting Martin.

This guy Ash has almost no normal interpersonal interactions.The communication partners are usually bartenders and prostitutes.

As luck would have it, Amanda's last case was investigating the death of a prostitute.The prostitute had just had an in-depth communication with Ash three days ago.

These clues were found by the policewoman in front of him, and they followed the investigation to Ash.However, although there were clues, Amanda did not find Ash. This encounter was actually just a coincidence.

Amanda was also filled with panic and doubts at this time.Because she actually saw something.Including the monster that was burned to ashes in Lu Xiao's hands.

The reason for the previous suspension was her mental state.Now that she saw that scene, she began to feel that she was under too much pressure and that she really had a mental problem.

After cuffing Ash quickly, Amanda turned her target to Lu Xiao.But then, she realized that Lu Xiao didn't seem to care about her actions.Its attention is at the door.

Just as Amanda was about to turn back, a pale hand locked her throat.

Amanda was shocked and subconsciously wanted to use her wrestling skills to subdue the person behind her.But what I didn't expect was that when I reached out, I realized that I couldn't feel anyone behind me.

Amanda couldn't see it herself, but other people in the store could.There was no one behind Amanda, only a hand around her neck.

It was a right hand that was broken at the wrist, pale but flexible.Locking Amanda's throat tightly, she soon lost her mobility.

At this time, a woman walked in from outside the door.She was plump and even a little muscular.There was a slightly hypocritical smile on his face.

The first time the other party approached, Lu Xiao was a little wary.Because the woman in front of him was not human at all in Lu Xiao's eyes.But some kind of unknown existence.

Lu Xiao has divinity and high status, and can naturally perceive beings with low status.In her perception, the woman in front of her was not a living person at all.In other words, the kind between the living and the dead.

The woman also didn't pay attention to the others, but looked directly at Lu Xiao.Of all the people present, only Lu Xiao posed a threat to her. "It's been such a long time. There is actually a legacy of magicians in this world."

Lu Xiao looked at the other party's strange aura and suddenly had a strange idea.

"Are you a Dark Tribe?"

"Just like in the legend, magicians are all smart people. Yes, I am indeed a member of the Dark Tribe, at least I used to be. So, can you give me back our things?"

What the woman was talking about was naturally the Book of Death in Lu Xiao's hand.Once this thing was in Lu Xiao's hands, it was naturally impossible to give it away easily.

However, this matter is not undiscussable.Because there are many secrets in the Book of Death that I don’t understand at all.

Apart from anything else, he just couldn't collect this thing until now, which made him a little helpless.

"You said I can't give you this thing. But this thing is my trophy. In any civilization, you can't take other people's trophies at will, right?
So, you either come and take it.Or trade something of sufficient value. "

"That book does not belong to humans in the first place. If it remains in your hands, it will only continue to threaten the world. As long as you hold it for a day, those demons will never give up chasing you."

The woman tried to escape.But was directly interrupted by Lu Xiao.

"I don't care about the pursuit of these things. What I care about is the meaning behind this thing. Just now, we summoned an Eligo, and I learned something from its mouth.

But this didn't solve my doubts, but made me even more puzzled.As far as I know, the Dark One created the Book of the Dead.I want to know, what happened next? "

The other party didn't want to say anything, so Lu Xiao asked directly.The woman in front of me had a strange aura.But Lu Xiao was not afraid.The opponent's strength is not strong. If they really fight, Lu Xiao is not afraid of the opponent.

The woman frowned, and Lu Xiao noticed that there should be a dagger in the other party's sleeve, with a strong magical aura on it.It is a very dangerous magic weapon.

He directly entered the niffin state and was ready to take action directly.But at this time, the woman calmed down.

"Okay, let's get to know each other again. My name is Ruby. I am a descendant of the Dark Tribe. I hope to retrieve the Book of Death, but I am not planning to use it to destroy the world. I am planning to completely seal the gap between the two worlds. of cracks.

Many years ago, the Dark Tribe discovered the world of demons.We created the Book of the Dead in an attempt to control the power of those demons.But it’s a pity that it failed, evil spirit”

"Wait a minute, why did it fail?"

Lu Xiao asked this question emphatically.This stunned Ruby for a moment.

"Sorry, I was underage at the time and was not qualified to participate in that incident. I only know that we failed. Almost all my people died in that incident. The Book of Death also fell into the world."

"I believe your story for the moment. But can you explain why you, the Dark Tribe, want to turn the Book of Death into a magic book that ordinary people can use. Are your magic customs so open?"

Ruby looked at the Book of Death with a complicated expression on her face.

"Of course we won't do this. In fact, the Book of Death itself should be a purely magical item. But after connecting to the evil world, this thing becomes different."

At this point, Lu Xiao finally realized.
