"Master, don't worry! Even though I haven't used it before, I'm already very familiar with the Soulsearching Art!"
"Just let me play with it!"
"You don't know how frustrated I've been, pretending to be interested in Lachlan just to gather information about the jade pendant for you."
"Let me use the Soulsearching Art on his daughter and take out my anger!"
At the end, Summer looked at Nora and gritted her teeth. A vicious look appeared on her face. Wicked Bone nodded and said, "Alright! I'll leave this little brat to you, Summer. Let her have a taste of your fury, hehehe..."
"Mhm! Thank you, Master..."
"Tonight, I will definitely make you suffer, Master."
Summer said in a seductive manner.
Wicked Bone cursed under his breath, wearing an evil grin on his face. After teasing Wicked Bone with her charm, Summer lifted Nora and threw a seductive glance at Wicked Bone.
"Master, the use of the Soulsearching Art requires no disturbances. I'm taking this little brat to the basement, okay?"
"Alright, go ahead! Hehehe..."
Wicked Bone nodded and waved his hand dismissively.
Two minutes later...
Inside the basement of the small building, Summer brought Nora here and closed the iron door.
"You wicked woman, let me go!"
"I'll bite you to death!"
Nora continued to struggle desperately, even biting Summer's wrist.
Summer relaxed her muscles, gritted her teeth, and lowered her voice as she spoke to Nora, "Nora, lower your voice! You need to listen to me."
Nora, with a fearful and angry expression, paused when she heard Summer's words.
With a look of uncertainty, she looked at the "wicked woman" in front of her.
"Nora, from now on, you need to pretend to be dumb, understand?"
Nora blinked her eyes and asked, "Wicked woman, what do you mean? What does it mean to pretend to be dumb?"
Summer quickly explained, "That wicked old man just now wanted to use an evil magic on you. That magic would turn you into a foolish child. I tricked him and said I would use the magic on you, but I won't actually do it. But to avoid suspicion, you need to act dumb. Do you understand? Have you watched TV? How do those fools act on TV? Can you do it?"
Nora looked at Summer and nodded, "I can!"
The little one, smarter and more sensible than most children, instantly understood when she heard Summer's explanation.
So the woman in front of her wasn't a wicked woman, but someone helping Nora?
"Good, then act like that for me."
Summer was a bit worried.
As soon as she finished speaking, Nora opened her mouth slightly, her bright eyes became blank and she started giggling foolishly, even drooling a bit, all in a convincing manner.
Seeing this, Summer couldn't help but hold back her laughter.
Her tense nerves seemed to relax a bit.
"Good, that's it! No matter who talks to you, you have to answer with unrelated things and act crazy and foolish, understood?"
Summer nodded in relief.
Upon hearing this, Nora didn't respond, she just continued giggling foolishly a few more times.
This completely put Summer at ease!
The next moment, she pressed her ear against the iron door of the basement, listening for a while to confirm that Wicked Bone was not outside. Then she dialed Lachlan's phone on her mobile.
In order to deceive Wicked Bone and make the act convincing, Summer needed to consult something with Lachlan.
...
Lachlan, Phoebe, and the other outsiders inside the Nest of Malevolence felt a distortion in their surroundings.
In the next second, they found themselves back in the cave.
"Did we make it out?"
