Chapter 836

Author: Dreamy Fire
The herbs Felix needed for alchemic refining weren't only needed in a high quantity but also extremely rare. If Felix used his connections to source them, it would take a long time.

In the end, he consulted Silas, who then introduced him to Qualls Pharmaceutical.

"I hadn't expected you to come here personally, Ms. Qualls. I'm flattered," Felix said.

Yasmin's manners were impeccable, and the way she spoke was pleasant. "Dr. Zeller, it's my honor to be of use to a genius doctor like you."

Felix nodded and took out a file before handing it over. "All the herbs I need are listed here. You can take a look first, Ms. Qualls. If you have any issues, you can tell me and we'll work out the kinks together."

Yasmin nodded. "Alright, please wait a minute."

Half an hour passed before Yasmin finally finished reading them all.

"Most of the herbs are doable. We have enough reserves to supply you. There are only a dozen of extremely rare ones, but I can also guarantee the delivery within a mont

    Felix looked at Xena speechlessly for a moment. Why was she becoming more and more irrational? Why didn't she tell him earlier if she didn't want him to go?Why did she tell him at this moment?"The headquarters had already issued an order. Why are you telling me to back out now?" he questioned.Xena also knew it was a bit too late to say anything, but she couldn't help herself. "Fine, then let's get back to the point. Three months ago, something strange happened in Seapoint. The residents of the town began sleeping during the day and only waking at night."Their sleep cycles were reversed? Felix clicked his tongue inwardly. This was truly the first time he had heard of such a thing."Why does it sound like they're vampires? But isn't that a fictional thing?" Felix remarked.Xena glared at Felix, signaling for him to take this more seriously. She continued, "The point is, the people in town are completely normal. There's nothing strange besides their sleep cycles. "We've sent p

    "Do you think a person's soul can be disguised?" Felix asked. The reason he asked was because of the situation at Seapoint.Two people who appeared physically dead were actually alive, which meant that this should be related to their souls. Gerald had once said that souls were the most complicated things.He had advised Felix not to touch this field; otherwise, he would have driven himself crazy. However, what about the strange events in Seapoint? What if they were related to souls?The Shadow Mask couldn't change the souls, and Billy had deep knowledge of this area, so it wouldn't hurt to ask him."Interesting, why are you asking this?" Billy countered.However, Felix didn't want to expose more of the mission's details, and he remained silent.At that, Billy simply replied, "Of course, it can be disguised. Do you have anything else to ask?"Felix rubbed his nose, feeling a little guilty. Although he owed Billy a favor, he still felt like he was taking advantage of Billy."Do y

    At Damien's door stood dozens of people. They were all expressionless, and they all stared at Felix blankly. It was super creepy."You… What do you want?" Felix greeted them awkwardly. His nervousness showed in his eyes.However, no one answered him. They all stood still, staring at him intently.Fortunately, there were sounds of footsteps, and the crowd immediately made way. An old man with a cane and a goatee slowly approached.Felix knew that this old man was well known in Seapoint. He was labeled the Great Teacher. With the headquarters' investigations, it was easy to find the background of Damien's life. In fact, many people worked outside of Seapoint. However, they chose Damien because he had no relatives left. After his grandmother, who depended on him, passed away, he left Seapoint to work. Tragically, Damien himself passed away in a car accident. What was left of him had no one to remember him by—except for some neighbors and some friends."Mr. Docker," Felix took t

    Felix smiled apologetically. "I'm sorry, but my phone has no signal. I promise to come and pay you back when it's back."When he came out of the supermarket, there were a few more people around Lena. They took the initiative to help Felix hold his bags.The enthusiasm, at least in their eyes, seemed genuine. Honestly, in today's society, it was a miracle that neighbors would even help each other, especially since Damien was a useless nobody.When they got home, Lena and a few of the townsfolk cleaned the house again without Felix asking. Soon, the house looked brand new. After a while, someone came over with a lot of food, cigarettes, alcohol, and many other necessities."This is too much!" Felix said, a little embarrassed.Lena smiled. "Damien, our town has changed dramatically now. To tell you the truth, as long as you don't leave town from now on, you don't have to spend a single penny on your future expenses."Felix pretended to be ecstatic. "Is that true? Aunt Lena, that's

    The six real Dragonspines in Felix's body trembled, and his expression changed wildly. This was the first time this was happening, and he was a little scared. He quickly activated Dragons Destroyer, but the trembling didn't stop."What's going on?" Despite the fact that the Dragonspines were trembling within him, his body felt completely normal. After trying various skills, nothing changed, and Felix could only head outside.If he continued like this, he would have to terminate the mission—he didn't want to risk his life. If he couldn't solve it himself, he could only consult Gerald. However, there wasn't a signal in town. The only way he could contact Gerald was to leave Seapoint. But Felix didn't expect that as soon as he left the house, the Dragonspines stopped trembling, as if it were all an illusion.He had a thought. To verify it, he went back inside the house. After a few minutes, the Dragonspines started trembling again."Was there something wrong with the house?"Feli

    During the day, Felix wandered around the town alone and saw several trucks entering. However, he didn't head over to talk. He only watched from a distance.Someone from the headquarters had taken the note he had hidden the night before. Felix couldn't find anything strange during the whole process.…In a city over 31 miles away from Seapoint, Xena was worried after reading the note brought back by the driver.Felix had snuck in, but why was everything getting weirder? Xena couldn't help much now. All she could do was contact Seven and tell him what Felix had said in the letter. "My Dragonspines are trembling, but I don't know why. I cannot contact anyone, too."…Another night passed, and Felix grew more irritable. As long as he was in the house, the Dragonspines didn't stop trembling. Now, he could only hope that his fellow apprentices could find a way to bring him Gerald's explanation.Around 10:00 am, the dogs in his area started barking. Felix went outside and saw a co

    Felix remained composed, but his heart sank. There were usually only stray animals in Seapoint during the day. It was impossible to see any human beings in broad daylight.It would've seemed normal if a stranger had stumbled upon the town. However, this was Augustus standing before him."Oh, Mr. Docker! I was just taking a stroll. It gets too boring to stay in the house."Augustus still had a smile on his face. Despite the warm sunshine, Felix felt chills run down his spine."The town has changed a lot in recent years! I'll take you on a proper tour. There are some places that you can't fully appreciate at night."With this invitation, Felix felt like he was left in a tough spot. In fact, he had also guessed the situation. Immediately, he dropped the act and said coldly, "Since it's come to this, let me be frank. I'm a Dragon Knight sent by the headquarters. "Mr. Docker, it's best for you to surrender and confess. Cooperate, and you might be treated more leniently. Otherwise,

    Just as Felix's attack was about to land, there was a muffled sound. All of a sudden, another person appeared beside Augustus.This man was around 30 years old and wore jeans, a white shirt, and a pair of glasses. He easily dissipated the energy that was thrown by Felix."Greetings, my lord!" Augustus fell to the ground, and his expression turned respectful. There was even a hint of fascination in his eyes."What is this? Why did you wake me up?" Augustus quickly pointed at Felix and said, "I'm so sorry, my lord. Someone snuck in! I tried to handle it myself but couldn't hurt him. It seems like he has something protecting his soul."Huh? The man looked at Felix, the surprise clear on his face."How interesting! This is the first time I've met someone who has knowledge in this area. You're quite suited to be my guardian!" he said while laughing.The next moment, the man pointed two index fingers at Felix. "You fool!"A green light flashed, and a four-armed, two-headed monster a

    The existence of crossbreeds was classified as top secret by headquarters. If word got out, even if the general public remained unaware, just the knowledge reaching certain members within headquarters would cause mass panic.Would you dare to question whether your partner might be a Malevolent Phantom? Would you risk wondering if your child inherited some of its traits and became a crossbreed? No one wanted to shoulder that responsibility.Take Johann and his team, for example. They had absolutely no knowledge of crossbreeds, and their resistance right now stemmed entirely from their own moral convictions."Sir!"Johann didn't dare stop Felix outright, but he raised his voice to make his stance clear. The others followed suit, not to mention Lina, who was still sobbing uncontrollably, and Steve, whose eyes were red with fury as he glared at Felix without a hint of fear."Mr. Zeller! If you're really going to take my grandson, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"Tears st

    "So what?" Lina asked. "Even if I lied, what does that person's death have to do with my son?"Felix suddenly roared, "Are you telling me that when you opened the door, your son never left your sight for even a second?""I—"Lina opened her mouth but suddenly found herself at a loss for words. That instinctive hesitation was the most telling of all."Get the car ready. Take her with us. We're going to Lina's house.""Yes, sir!"The convoy arrived at a luxurious mansion in Zuera. The moment Felix and his team rushed inside, they saw Steve sitting in the living room, holding a three-year-old boy in his arms."Mr. Zeller, why are all of you here?"Lina, restrained by Felix's men, screamed in a frenzy, "Dad! Save Leonardo! They're trying to take him away!"Then, she turned to Felix, shouting in fury, "You monsters! He's just three years old, and you suspect him of murder? I'll expose you! I'll take you to court!"By the time she finished, she was sobbing uncontrollably."Mr. Zel

    Even though Lina knew Felix held an unimaginably high status—so high that even Steve feared him—his continued questioning and the direction of his suspicions pushed her to the edge. The mere idea that her son might be involved sent her into a silent rage.She was a mother, and when it came to her child, she did not care who the hell the other person was."I'm just asking questions," Felix said flatly. "Just answer them. Don't make me start quoting laws and rights to get you to cooperate."His voice was so calm. For a moment, Lina wondered if she had overreacted, so she took a breath and continued.She explained, "He wasn't in the stall. It's way too small in there. I left the door cracked open so he could see me, and since I had the tether on, plus the nanny and driver waiting outside, I wasn't worried about him wandering off."Felix did not say anything right away. He stood there, clearly deep in thought.Silvercrest Restaurant might have been an upscale dining place, but it was

    "Can you cooperate now?" Felix asked calmly.Lina snapped back to her senses, her face burning with embarrassment. "I'm sorry," she said quickly. "I'll fully cooperate from now on."Sure enough, seeing the richest man's daughter completely fold made the rest of the group abandon any rebellious thoughts. Whatever frustration they had been feeling vanished instantly.Once they were settled, Felix began examining them closely. This was not just a casual observation. He activated his Spirit Eye, a skill from the Phaeron Codex that allowed him to see into a person's soul.After reaching Higher Spirit Realm, Felix had gained access to this ability, but he had never actually used it to inspect a Malevolent Phantom before. Still, he was sure of one thing—their souls would look nothing like normal humans'.So, checking with Spirit Sight was a far more reliable method than looking at whether someone's wounds were healing.When Felix finished scanning all nine people, he froze, completely s

    A few minutes later, Felix stepped into the restroom that had been sealed off. It was a fully enclosed space, with no windows—just a single ventilation fan. That meant there was only one entrance and exit.He examined the body sitting upright on the toilet in one of the stalls. The man's head was resting gently against the tiled wall. His pants were already pulled back up and fastened, clearly indicating he had finished using the restroom. More importantly, it was obvious no one had touched or tampered with the body.Felix commented, "No need to call in forensics. There are no external wounds, and his internal organs are completely intact. We can also rule out heart failure or brain hemorrhages. This wasn't caused by any natural condition."With his medical background, it only took Felix a glance to determine the truth.Johann replied, "Yes, sir. But then… what now? Should we interrogate those nine people?"The closer they got to confirming Malevolent Phantoms were involved, the

    Felix said, "Go ahead, Delilah. Zara's in your hands now—take care of her on the road.""Don't worry," Delilah replied.Once Zara was gone, Felix stood there for a moment, feeling a weight settle over his chest. She had already been through so much just surviving the ordeal of Twinshade Body, and he had promised himself—without saying a word—that he would make sure she never suffered like that again.However, no one could have predicted the sudden arrival of the Malevolent Phantoms. That was a nightmare nobody could escape, and only by ending it would they have the right to even dream of a peaceful life.…That evening, as the sun dipped low on the horizon, Felix was having dinner with Luna at a quiet restaurant, and Paul had joined them, too."Thank you, Mr. Zeller. Holden is awake and doing surprisingly well," Paul said, raising his glass.He was genuinely grateful. Even the doctors had called it a miracle. Holden had a severed artery and was transported across a long distance

    "Mr. Hoffman?" Felix muttered. No wonder Delilah had shown up in person."Why didn't Mr. Hoffman just call me?" he asked.Delilah shrugged, raising both hands. "Because it's not convenient. If you make one choice, I can report back and be done with it, saving everyone the time."Felix nodded, finally curious about this big choice. Then, Delilah asked, "Zara, the one with Twinshade Body, came to see you, didn't she?"That caught Felix off guard. "How do you know about that?"Delilah rolled her eyes with a little smirk. If one of her fans saw her like this, they would probably faint from the shock.She explained, "It's not like I'm psychic. Mr. Hoffman told me. Ever since you left Martial City and came back, he's had Ophelia keeping an eye on Zara the whole time, so of course he knows."Ophelia? That explained why he had not seen her around since coming back. "So, what's the choice Mr. Hoffman wants me to make? Is it really about Zara?"Delilah nodded firmly. "Exactly. Mr. Hoff

    Donna said, "Felix, Specter's the kind of guy who'll stop at nothing. I'll hold back and observe for now, but if you really prove you've got what it takes, I'll act like I never even saw that woman."…Later, Zara was resting her chin in both palms with a sweet, innocent smile on her face. She hummed, "Mhm!"Felix let out a groan and rubbed his face. "Don't just say 'mhm'! Did you even understand what I just told you?"After piecing together everything Donna had said, Felix laid it all out for Zara. Since Specter could strike at any time and Zara still did not know what Malevolent Phantoms even were, he figured she needed to hear it all."Of course I understood. Relax, honey. I'm not stupid," Zara replied casually. Since she got it, Felix finally let himself relax, too. A weight lifted off his chest, and for the first time in a while, he really looked at Zara's flawless face. He thought, "Yeah—there's no way I can hold back anymore."He said, "Let's take care of something… imp

    Felix finally snapped out of it. Just moments ago, Donna had looked so grim, claiming something big was about to happen. Yet now, after her whole speech, it was all about the benefits of Zara being a Hollow Soul.Donna said, "Hollow Soul has a unique trait. If consumed, it can greatly boost your chances of success.""Consumed?" That one word made Felix's face darken instantly. "Success in what exactly?"Donna had tried to be vague, but there was no way Felix did not get the implication. To put it bluntly, she was talking about eating Zara's soul."Whether you're stuck at a plateau in your cultivation, your soul is mutating, or you're trying to master powerful soul-based techniques—offensive or defensive—if it's soul-related, Hollow Soul can drastically increase your chances of success."Felix's expression shifted as something came rushing back to him. Billy had once told him that when the Mystical Explosive Orb absorbed enough soul essence to reach capacity, it could be used to re
