Bab 101: Tier 8 Dark Magical Beast

Mages below Tier 7 couldn't step into the pool. If there was a key at the bottom, it was invaluable, and no one else had reached for it yet.

"It's real, sir," the man returned his words carefully.

"What does the key unlock?"

"An entrance at the bottom of the Ebony Pool, sir."

"The bottom of the pool? You sure you aren't pulling another trick?" Lin Ming scoffed. The man was sly and deceitful. If it hadn't been Lin Ming's wit, the man would have tricked him.

"I dare not, sir." Lin Ming was in control of him now. Even if he had something else on his mind, he couldn't cast it.

"I do not trust you now," Lin Ming shook his head. "I have no clue of how far the Soul-absorbing Bells could reach."

"You could see from my point of view through the bells, sir. There is no need to worry about my escape."

"I can? Great. Teach me how." Lin Ming was interested. He didn't think the bells would be this useful.
