Denvor walked out of the interrogation room. He felt that something was off. Turning his head, favonovel.com saw the unconscious bald man stare darkly at him.
A sinister smile appeared on his face. Those red eyebrows now looked even more terrifying and strange.
“Master Eldritch will never forgive you!”
The bald man held his head before twisting it violently to the right. He seemed to have used all the strength in his body.
There was a crack, and his neck broke from the force. His head drooped to one side.
He was dead!
“Another suicide?!” Diana was stunned. She couldn’t help but think of Ginge, the master of telekinesis.
Isaac’s gaze turned gloomy. He took out his phone and dialed Lupinus’ number. “Ask the House of Custos to send reinforcement troops from the Gayton Military. Tell them to surround the Elixir Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Plant located on Sealane Road in the southern suburbs of Corken City…”
“Let’s go… We have to go to the airport right away.” Isaac was beginning to sense a bad feeling in his gut.
Their case had gone cold because Ginge had killed himself.
Isaac and the other two walked out of the precinct and got in the car.

Meanwhile, in the middle of a big mountain, there was a hidden temple.
A winding, paved road led to the front of the mountain. But past that point, there was only a dirt path filled with holes.
A pale yellow light illuminated the temple.
In the altar room, a bald man in a red cloak stood in the middle. He looked to be slightly under 40 years old. He was sitting in front of a deity statue with his eyes closed.
Twenty-eight burning candles lined up in the corner of the room across from him.
All of a sudden, one of them went out.
The bald man’s eyes snapped open. The two red brows on his forehead wrinkled.
“Come in!” favonovel.com yelled.
The door opened, and another bald man in a red clock entered.
“Master Eldritch, how can I serve you?” He knelt in front of the bald man sitting on the floor.
The man called Master Eldritch said sinisterly, “Notify all the emissaries to return with their sacrificial offerings right now.”
The man in the red cloak shivered. He immediately nodded and said, “Yes, right away!”
Eldritch stood up and walked to the candles. Staring at the one that went out, his eyes glinted coldly.
“Isaac, oh, Isaac, why must you insist on opposing me in every way possible? Once my sacrifice is successful, I will eat your flesh and drink your blood!” Eldritch roared wickedly.

At midnight, Isaac, Diana, and Denvor got off the plane.
A military vehicle from the local army waited at the side.
When they approached the car, a 3-star general jogged over and saluted Isaac.
“Sir, the manufacturing plant has been surrounded!”
“What’s the status?” Isaac asked with a frown.
The general looked a little embarrassed. He bowed and replied, “After we arrived, we immediately began to ransack the place. B-But we didn’t find anything…”
“Damn it, those bastards are one step ahead of us again. Just how did they know?” Diana gritted favonovel.com teeth in fury.
“Get in the car. We’ll check it ourselves…” Isaac’s eyes flashed coldly as favonovel.com ducked into the car.
When they arrived at the manufacturing plant, they saw several thousand armed soldiers were already outside. Some even had heavy machine guns pointed at the entrance.
Isaac and the other two went one round around the plant.
Finally, they arrived at the freezing chamber in the deepest part of the plant.
One of the soldiers pushed open the door. A gust of cold air mixed with the pungent smell of blood hit favonovel.com in the face.
“Is there any evidence we could use inside?” Isaac pointed toward the room.
