Affinity: Chaos Chapter 1431 Three Links

Chapter 1431 Three Links

In the forest outside the town.

Grey followed the trail deep into the forest. Before leaving, he didn't want any complications with locating the real body, so he sent Void to the man's house to make sure he delayed them, giving him the time he needed to track the main body.

As he entered the forest, he followed the trail all the way to a large tree that had a hole in it.

Just as he was about to reach the tree, he saw a figure rus.h.i.+ng out of the tree hurriedly. The figure wore a cloak as he left the tree in a haste.

Grey didn't waste any time and disappeared, appearing in front of the man.

"What's the rush? I just got here and you're leaving already?"

Grey's voice stopped the man, as well as his towering figure that was standing before the man.

The man wasn't the largest, around five foot four, but Grey was five foot eleven and his broad shoulders made him look exceptionally big when compared to the lanky body of the man. Even the cloak couldn't hide the real body of the man.

"Boy, who are you? And what do you mean by that?" The man asked with a calm voice.

"Hmm, strange. You don't know me and why I am here?" Grey raised a brow. He knew the man was pretending since he already tracked the link to him. This was definitely the person he was searching for.

"Oh, there are two more of you?" Grey asked with a surprised expression before the man could answer his first question.

"Two more of me? What are you even saying, kid?" The man asked, dumbfounded by Grey's questions.

"Stop pretending, I know what you are, I'm just curious as to how you were able to link up with three others to create that shadow. I don't think he has ever seen your face, has he?" Grey asked.

"What the h.e.l.l are you even talking about kid?" The cloaked man asked, he looked at Grey and said, "Look, if you have nothing good to say, then I have to leave. There are things I need to attend to, and you're basically spouting nonsense, wasting my time in the process. Please, get out of my way."

"You're really good at acting." Grey couldn't help but praise the man's acting. The fact that the man was acting like he doesn't even know what Grey was talking about was amusing to Grey.

The man looked at Grey and said, "Kid, if this is all you have to say, then I'm sorry, I do not have the luxury of entertaining you. There are important businesses I have to attend and you're blocking my path."

Grey sighed, he took a step and grabbed the man on his neck, raising him into the air, "I'll ask you some questions, and you will give me the answers I need."

The man was only in the Ninth stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane, against someone like Grey who was already close to the Peak of the Venerable Plane with his physical body and was already at the Peak with his cultivation level, there was no way the man could defend against him.

Grey's arm was wrapped around the neck of the man, but the man didn't flinch, he said coldly, "Kid, I know you're strong, but this is bullying. I'll let you know that I'm an Elder from my Faction, and your actions will meet deadly repercussions if you don't let me go."

"An Elder, even more reason for me to kill you. You're working with a Necromancer, killing all those young talents from your Faction just to grow stronger. Did you think you wouldn't be caught in the end?" Grey tightened his grip and the man started to find it hard to breathe, his face was going red from it.

"I do not know what you're talking about, your accusations are preposterous!" The man flared up.

"Don't worry, when I'm done with you, you'll understand what I'm getting at."

Grey loosened his grip on the man's throat and just as he was about to send elemental essence into the man's body, incapacitating him, the man reacted quickly, squas.h.i.+ng a talisman that appeared on his hand, disappearing into the void.

"Haha, against a s.p.a.ce Elementalist, you think you can escape?" Grey laughed and tore right into the void, closely following behind the man's trail.

….

On another path of the forest.

Klaus and Alice found the other link at the same time as Grey, this one hadn't tried escaping, rather, the person was still seated in the tree, thinking.

When Klaus and Alice arrived, Klaus wasn't like Grey who wanted to have a civil conversation with the person first, he straight up froze the tree, trapping the figure inside.

Alice was stunned by Klaus' method. He didn't ask any questions and straight up kept the figure locked up inside the tree.

There was no way the figure could get out of that place, unless said person was at least at the Peak of the Venerable Plane.

"What?" Klaus looked at Alice when he saw her reaction.

"Nothing." Alice replied with a chuckle.

Klaus nodded and turned to look in another direction, the direction Reynolds and Aries went.

….

Reynolds and Aries caught up with their link when the figure was about to escape, seeing Reynolds and Aries, the figure froze, before walking off in a calm manner.

All three figures were covered in cloaks and without them speaking, there was no way they could tell what their ident.i.ties were.

"Stop!" Aries said with a cold voice.

The figure stopped and turned to look at Aries, "How can I help you, little girl?"

It was the voice of a lady, but it was unlike anything Aries had ever heard.

"What are you doing here?" Aries asked.

"What are You doing here?" The lady asked, emphasizing on the 'you'.

"I asked the question first, and if you want to leave this place, you must answer the question." Aries said.
