<h4>Chapter 68: The Power Of The All-Seeing Eye</h4>
"Ow ow ow ow!" Aberleigh felt a rush of unbridled pleasure as he watched these humans flee in panic and fear. Aberleigh excitedly barked at the three mercenaries who were slowly running away, mocking these arrogant humans.
However, something suddenly pped him from behind. Before Aberleigh could react, the power contained in the p sent his entire huge body flying before falling onto the grass in the distance.
"Ow-ho-ho!" Aberleigh was naturally upset after being attacked out of the blue. He stood up angrily and roared in the direction he had just flown from. He wanted to see who had the audacity to attack him.
"You fool!" Pdin''s skinny body stood in the said spot. While slightly shaking his ordinary palm, Pdin’s three eyes that glowed golden were staring straight at Aberleigh.
"Wow um." Aberleigh''s heart trembled. He immediately whined, begging for mercy once again as he knelt on the ground. He didn’t have the courage to look directly at Pdin, whose terrifying three golden eyes were still fixed on him. Pdin took off the gloves he had just put on as he nced sideways at the fleeing mercenaries before disdainfully saying, "What a trash, howling is all you can do. Watch carefully!"
Pdin casually raised his right hand at the end of his sentence. Two light arrows, each containing 100 magic elements, instantly condensed in front of him. When he narrowed his eyes, the two light arrows wereunched. However, Pdin did not simplyunch them as is. He raised his left hand as the light arrows wereunched. Several arcs of light shed in the palm of his hand.
"Run!" The female mercenary got separated from the others while trying to run away. Suddenly, she felt a strong sense of dangering from behind that sent a chill down her nape. When she turned around to look, she witnessed two of herpanions’ bewildered faces as two magic arrows emitting golden light each struck their backs. Their bodies were torn apart by the arrow. Without even having the chance to scream, they exploded into a mass of mush, sttering in all directions.
"Ahhhhhhh!"
The female mercenary''s body was pushed to the ground by the air wave created by herpanions'' exploding bodies. The entirety of the clothes and armor on her body were covered with thick blood and mutted internal organs. She looked at her red hands with fearful and disoriented eyes and once again fell into extreme panic.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
"Shut up! Shut up, you woman!"
Pdin aimed the violent arcs of light at the female mercenary from afar. The arcs of light flickered for a split second before shooting out at breakneck speed! Before the female mercenary could react, four or five golden chains appeared and wrapped around her entire body.
"What is this?! Let go! Help!"
Pdin simply ignored the woman''s yells. He clenched his left fist slightly before violently yanking the chains closer. The chains that bound the female mercenary instantly glowed. Her entire body fell uncontrobly to the ground, as if being grabbed and dragged back by invisible big hands. She was dragged until she was at Pdin’s feet.
"Please, you are a priest! I apologize for what happened just now, please don''t kill me!"
Pdin squatted down and looked into the female mercenary''s eyes, which still had a glimmer of hope as she begged for mercy. From the heart to his entire body, an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and superiority spread. Enjoying this wonderful sense of dominance, Pdin smiled and asked the female mercenary, "Tell me, where is this ce?"
"Edley..."
The female mercenary gazed at the golden eye that was magically floating on Pdin''s forehead, swaying and beaming above her. Her heart was filled with awe, but when she thought of the tragedy that had befallen herpanions, she immediately spoke up, "Go straight ahead, and you’ll find a river. There are two bridges. Take the one on the right and you''ll arrive at Edley."
"Really?"
"It''s true, I swear! Just please let me go!"
Pdin saw the female mercenary''s pleading gaze and felt like she was telling the truth. Just when he was about to get up and end this one’s life, Pdin suddenly heard a jumble of unpleasant murmurs.
"Don''t kill me!"
"Hey, the little guy is so cute."
"Captain, this sword is really bad."
"Mom, I want to eat candy."
Pdin''s body shook. He frowned and asked, "What are these sounds?"
"Huh?"
With a puzzled look on her face, the female mercenary tried to convince Pdin that those sounds had nothing to do with her. However, when Pdin listened attentively, he could clearly hear that all these jumbled voices wereing from the female mercenary!
He felt as if he had discovered a fortune. Pdin crouched down once more. Sure enough, the noises increased in volume. Just as the female mercenary became perplexed by Pdin''s actions, thetter suddenly grabbed her chin and drew her face closer to him. The golden light in his eyes became more and more intense. The All-Seeing Eye on his forehead looked at the creature in front of him as if it hade to life. At this moment, Pdin was able to see many images through the eyes of this flustered and bewildered female mercenary. These images depict the female mercenary''s memories spanning more than 20 years, from childhood to the present.
"What are you doing…?"
The female mercenary stared at the humanoid monster''s three terrifying golden eyes. Her heart became filled with an extremely unpleasant sensation and began to pound fast.
"Hmm? Is your heart racing?" Pdin''s golden eyes narrowed slightly. Suddenly, he put force in his hand that was holding the female’s mercenary’s chin and jerked it, forcing her to raise her head. As Pdin lowered his head, his three golden eyes were locked dead-on into the female mercenary''s eyes. He then whispered, "Look into my eyes."
Right now, Pdin felt as if he had been suddenly plunged into another dimension. Back into his dreamscape, he saw the stone te that led to the tunnel between the torrents.The difference this time was that all that shed around were all the memories of this female mercenary. Memories from her childhood, memories from her teens, memories from being a mercenary, and of course, memories that showed the way to Edley that Pdin wanted. However, Pdin then felt a sh of light before his eyes and came back to reality again. Right away, he felt a headache and a stabbing pain in his temples as if stabbed by needles. However, unlike Pdin, the female mercenary was out of luck.
The female mercenary felt like she was standing in front of a beach. The boundless golden seawater dyed the sky a golden yellow. As the sky wrapped around her tiny existence, her entire being was explored by the violent and powerful golden color. As a result, her consciousness gradually blurred.
"Waaahhhhh!" The female mercenary let out a scream while covering her eyes with her hands desperately. Bursts of ck smoke together with a strong burnt smell emerged from beneath her closed eyelids. Her clear eyes had most likely turned into a ck gooey substance by this point. Pdin suppressed his headache and stood up slowly. Looking at the female mercenary who was rolling on the ground while crying bitterly, he disgustedly said, "You lied to me. Can you bear the price of deceiving me?"
When he looked at this woman''s memory as if reading a book, Pdin knew that the correct route to Edley was via the bridge on the left. The bridge on the right would only make him go further and further away from Edley.
Obviously, the female mercenary who was in pain was unable to hear anything Pdin had said. Pdin didn''t care. He opened his palm slightly and sped her face at once. Immediately, arge number of golden light magic elements gathered in the palm of his hands. After that, Pdin apathetically whispered, "Get purified in the zing fire."
With a boom, the female mercenary was suddenly engulfed in a raging golden fire. Under such golden mes, even her hardest armor melted into molten iron. It was obvious what’d happen to the fleshy body of the female mercenary. Her body, as well as the grass beneath her, solidified into coal fragments not long after. What about her skeleton? It was reduced to ashes too.
