A Man Like None Other novel Chapter 4040

Jared glared at Vermillion Demon Lord, his eyes filled with anger. “D*mn, you definitely knew, but you deliberately kept it from me…”

No sooner had Jared finished speaking, than a series of grating noises filled the air, the sharp sounds of stones scraping against each other even discernible among them.

The sound was incredibly unsettling, giving Jared goosebumps all over his body.

At that point, Jared had lost the aura and perspective of those crimson mice, signifying that they were no longer present.

The sound kept drawing nearer, and Jared was anxiously looking around as if the sound was coming from all directions.

The defensive array that had just been depicted was now activated by Jared.

Now, Jared was feeling some regret. Why hadn’t he formed a more complex defensive array earlier?

Upon seeing Jared’s nervous demeanor, even Vermilion Demon Lord unexpectedly burst into laughter.

“You’re still laughing, but once we’re out. I won’t let you into my consciousness field. I’ll leave you here forever!”

Jared, somewhat irritated, spoke to Vermillion Demon Lord who was still laughing out loud.

“Don’t worry, what must be, must be. There’s no escaping it. Worst comes to worst, you’ll end up as a soul remnant. Either way, we’ll face it together. “Moreover, now that you possess a spiritual body, even if only a shred of your soul remains, you can gradually recover!” Vermilion Demon Lord exclaimed.

Jared had no intention of paying attention to Vermillion Demon Lord. Instead, he was cautiously observing his surroundings.

“Ah…”

Suddenly, Maurice let out a horrifying scream.

When Jared looked over, he found that Maurice was surprisingly covered in dark red bugs. crawling all over him.

These insects appeared to be tiny flickers of flame. However, when many of them gathered together, they took on the form of a raging fire.

With a swift flick of his Demon Flogger, Jared ensnared Maurice, drawing him into the defensive array.
