章節 474: 8.74 Sacrifice

So this was the ultimate pit that this world had dug for him. 

Lu Yizhou understood everything now. Baines was not afraid that his ally, 404, had been defeated by 666, nor did he show a hint of panic on his current situation because he had grasped onto an impenetrable armor — Lu Yizhou's lover. 

Supposing that Baines had been receiving power from the black witch's sacrifice, then the same would also apply to his lover. Their lives were tied together. The more powerful Baines was, his lover would also gain strength. But at the end of the day, it was a forbidden magic.

— Forbidden magic would always demand a great price to pay.

His lover did not participate in the black witch's scheme but he was on the receiving end. If at first, he was a glass of clear water, then the droplet of ink that fell into him would have dyed him black by now.
