Chapter 264: Chapter 264

"The current me must have turned into a real monster by now!"

Recalling the scene of devouring people earlier, it still felt vivid.

Although it was somewhat unsettling, Li Meng didn't feel disgusted.

The thrill of seizing power overshadowed the discomfort of human consciousness.

Those six were beyond waking up, completely turned into slaves of lust.

Their minds were locked by Feraud's divine power due to their close connection with him.

Li Meng could only make use of them as waste and devoured them.

After consuming the six, the total increase in his attributes was about 5000.

This meant each provided less than 1000 attribute points on average.

Though not much, it was better than nothing.

Li Meng wasn't too concerned about his transformation.

He had long become a monster, not just now.

He was strong, but not strong enough.

If eating could make him the unrivaled number one, he would continue to eat until he became the best in the world.

At this moment, Oriana let out a soft sound.

She opened her eyes, staring blankly at the ceiling.

After a while, she suddenly sat up in shock.

She touched her body, covering her chest to feel her heartbeat.

She was still alive, she hadn't died.

Remembering something, Oriana quickly looked to her side.

On the ground, she saw her fallen husband.

Just as she was about to crawl over, her body trembled.

Oriana shakily lifted her head.

In her eyes, the black-robed monster... the master was sitting by the bed.

"Do you feel anything amiss?"

Li Meng's voice suddenly echoed in the room.

Oriana's face froze, showing a look of horror.

"Mas... Master, my contract with Feraud has been severed!"

Li Meng looked down at the snow-white expanse on Oriana's chest.

The clothes in that area were gone due to the piercing.

Noticing the master's gaze, Oriana discreetly covered her chest.

"What, don't want to show me?"

Oriana quickly shook her head.

She hurriedly released her hand.

"Oriana, from now on, you belong to me!"

Olivia lowered her head calmly.

"Yes, Master, I am yours!"

Li Meng grinned, leisurely gazing at the voluptuous Oriana.

At this moment, the others also woke up.

Their reactions were the same as Olivia's.

They sat up in shock, hurriedly touching their bodies.

Seeing they were unharmed, they showed expressions of joy.

Seeing his wife unharmed, Enzos breathed a sigh of relief. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novel★fire.net

"From now on, you are free!"

The master's voice calmed the joyful six.

Although they had escaped Feraud's control, they had fallen into the hands of a more powerful monster.

What awaited them in the future was unknown.

Li Meng took a pouch from his waist and tossed it in front of the six.

"There are some crystals inside, enough for you to return home!"

When leaving the underground space of the palace, Li Meng had casually taken some crystals.

Not many, but enough for future world travels.

"Whether you go home or do whatever you want, it's your freedom. When I need you, I'll contact you again. Enzos, Oriana, Shandora, Theodore, Morris, Athena, I'm not a generous person. From now on, you belong to me. Enjoy your future lives; this is my gift to you!"

With that, Li Meng stood up and walked to the window.

"That's it. I'm not the owner of this house, you have to leave, and so do I. So, goodbye!"

Waving his hand, Li Meng's figure flashed and he jumped out of the window.

Looking at the empty window, the six exchanged glances.

Oriana quickly got up and ran to the window.

Standing by the window, Oriana gazed into the night sky outside.

The street outside was quiet, with nothing to be seen.

"What do you plan to do next?"

Theodore was the first to break the silence in the room.

The six looked at each other.

"I have to go home. I haven't been back for so many years, I don't even know if my home is still there."

Though he said this, Morris knew in his heart.

The place might still exist, but his territory had been destroyed by the lustful archbishop "Feraud."

But he had to go home, he had to return to his homeland.

"Let's go back. Although we don't know why the master gave us freedom, the master must value our identities. We are Saint Rank professionals. Returning to our countries, we can be granted territories again. When the master needs us, we must prove our worth, or else something we don't want to see might happen."

Remembering something, the six turned pale.

They recalled the scene of the master devouring people.

If they became the master's targets for consumption, they couldn't imagine what a desperate scene it would be.

Enzos' words were heard by the others.

That night, the night grew deeper.

The next day, in the morning, at Bard Count's mansion.

A tea party was taking place in the garden pavilion.

"So, Mr. Silver Mask is planning to travel far?"

Elisa put down her teacup and looked at Mr. Silver Mask.

"Yes, it should take two to three years for a round trip."

Li Meng picked up his teacup and drank it all in one go.

The scalding tea disappeared into the bottomless mouth.

This scene made the people in the pavilion show strange expressions.

Everyone in the mansion was present.

Bard, Susan, Elisa, and the two sisters Aima.

"Two to three years is not short. The place Mr. Silver Mask is going must be far away."

Bard looked at Li Meng with a forced smile.

Mr. Silver Mask seemed too strange.

This made Bard unsure of what face to show Mr. Silver Mask.

"Yes, the Saint Biren Continent is indeed some distance from Auburnro."

Mr. Silver Mask was going to the Saint Biren Continent?

A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of those in the pavilion.

This was a cross-continental journey, something ordinary people would never experience in a lifetime.

Even among adventurers, only a few had the ability to travel across continents.

A hint of envy flashed in Susan's eyes.

If possible, she wished to see the world.

But she couldn't; she didn't have the ability to travel freely between continents.

"Enough about me. What about the aftermath of the recent chaos?"

Li Meng had spent quite some time in that abandoned house.

By his calculations, four days had passed since the turmoil.

Bard sighed and shook his head.

"Although the Royal Guard eventually managed to repel the cult of the Demon God, the casualties among the civilians in the inner city were severe. Less than thirty percent survived, and tens of thousands were lost."
