Chapter 963: Chapter 961: Soul Devourer Master

As the barrier completely shattered, Igor was still pondering why Sol couldn’t just use Thunder to seal the crack as it began to form. That way, the intruder outside would find it even more difficult to break through.

But ultimately, Igor wasn’t Tobin; he couldn’t understand why Tobin didn’t do this. Now the barrier was broken, and the outside world, initially blocked off, suddenly appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Igor initially expected to see an army, but eventually discovered there was only a solitary figure.

This lone figure was like a massive mountain, moving slowly yet oppressively, as if a mountain was crushing toward you.

The oppressive aura was suffocating. The skeletal knights on the side appeared as if their consciousness had disintegrated, showing no reaction, while Sol, floating in mid-air, wore a solemn expression. The Mos Brothers and Shana constantly gripped their weapons, fearful they might drop them.

"Is this the fabled Soul Devourer Master?" Only Igor was unbothered, sizing up the figure up and down. In his eyes, the being that oppressed him seemed to lack any special features.

In Igor’s serious opinion, this Soul Devourer Master appeared to be an ordinary, completely unremarkable figure!

Igor’s comment eased the previously tense atmosphere.

Even the Soul Devourer Master, who had just stepped into the barrier, was taken aback.

"What, does my appearance not meet your expectations?"

Igor didn’t expect the Soul Devourer Master to be so leisurely inclined; previously, the skeletal knights described this master as cruel and ruthless, embodying a true fiend.

But the one before him seemed exceedingly ordinary, not overly tall, neither robust nor frail, lacking a menacing face and exaggerated form—he simply appeared as a regular person.

"Then what should I look like according to your expectations?" Seeing Igor remain silent, the Soul Devourer Master pursued further inquiry.

"You should resemble a Devil!" Igor answered directly, without fear.

"And what should a Devil look like? With horns on its head?" A trace of sarcasm was embedded in the tone.

Igor scratched his head; he truly didn’t know what a Devil should look like, having only heard tales but never witnessed one.

"I regret my appearance disappoints you," the Soul Devourer Master spoke again, his tone tinged with a slight sadness.

"Igor, don’t be fooled by him. He’s the Soul Devourer Master, inherently faceless because he can occupy anyone’s body!" Sol reminded Igor promptly. He had long dealings with this Soul Devourer Master and was intimately familiar with him.

"Hehehe..." The Soul Devourer Master suddenly started laughing, a chilling sound that felt discomforting to hear.

Igor then realized, thanks to Sol’s reminder, what was transpiring.

Facelessness meant such ordinary appearance. Once you’ve seen him, you won’t remember his looks or hold any unique impression... because he seems too ordinary, ordinary enough to be forgettable, ordinary enough that anything you see might appear as him...

This mundane appearance is indeed faceless, leaving one unable to discern his true visage!

On reflection, isn’t that also true of Devils!

Who truly knows the true face of a Devil, but who can truly forget a Devil’s real appearance!

Igor shuddered all over, realizing that many dangers arise beneath such ordinary appearances.

Gazing at the Soul Devourer Master’s exceedingly ordinary form, Igor suddenly felt that this world was truly complex, with external appearances never to be trusted.

Thankfully, there’s Tobin Sol here—a person worthy of his trust.

"Do you trust the person before you so unwaveringly? Are you so sure he’s the Sol you’re looking for?" The Soul Devourer Master spoke slowly, with a hint of mockery.

"Hmm?" Igor felt puzzled at why the Soul Devourer Master would say such a thing.

Just as Igor was taken aback, the Soul Devourer Master suddenly also floated in mid-air, his body adorned with Lightning, showing a broad smile, "I claim to be Tobin Sol, do you believe it?"

"This..." Igor was dumbstruck, astounded that the Soul Devourer Master could indeed assume someone else’s appearance!

"Your judgment was flawed, were you unaware? The one before you isn’t Sol; everything they’ve said is false, all is a deception!" The Soul Devourer Master continued, grinning.

Igor’s mind felt overloaded, realizing he hadn’t appraised anything himself upon entering; he had simply accepted others’ words at face value!

Now, faced with this revelation, Igor’s heart began to waver.

Yet neither Tobin Sol nor the Mos Brothers explained anything; they retained a cautious stance. To them, any clarification can be futile against potential serious harm from one individual.

Doing one’s best, that’s what the Resistors have always pursued. They wouldn’t care what others think; as for Igor, navigating this challenge depends on his own comprehension.

Although Igor’s thoughts were now muddled, he hadn’t reached a state where simple words could sway him.

This moment, Sol started to act—with this Soul Devourer Master, there was no need for pleasantries. Engaging in combat directly sufficed.

Lightning Thunder attacked the Soul Devourer Master instantly, causing radiant flashes, followed closely by Shana’s whip curling over, binding the Soul Devourer’s body like a snake.

The Mos Brothers anticipated this moment, their hammers and large blades slicing towards the Soul Devourer Master’s head left and right!

During this process, the Soul Devourer Master offered no resistance, unaffected by Thunder’s attack and binding, nor did he flinch at the Mos Brothers’ hammer and blade.

The Resistor elites’ attack was fierce, quickly destroying the Soul Devourer Master’s body, leaving it like a heap of debris, collapsed limply on the ground.

However, Sol and the others remained vigilant, having battled with the Soul Devourer Master for a long time and knowing his capabilities...

Soon, the heap of debris stood up again, swiftly reverting to its original, ordinary appearance.

"Bullying an unarmed person truly displays your style, which is terribly disappointing..."

Crash—the Soul Devourer Master hadn’t finished speaking when a Sword Qi was unleashed, precise and ruthless.

Everyone fixed their gaze to find it was Igor who had emitted the Sword Qi, directly targeting the Soul Devourer Master without hesitation.
