Chapter 1432 A New Host
Jared blamed himself for being too weak to save Josephine, yet Astrid could not care less about his fighting abilities. If only someone loved me as much as he did! Jared clearly loves his girlfriend very much to be behaving like this.
Zion and the others were so tickled by Jared’s actions that they no longer wished to kill him off so soon.
Amid Jared’s mumbling, the black mist that had been part of the humanoid form suddenly darted into Jared’s body.
Jared shuddered, and his gaze instantly became blank.
Spots of golden light flashed on Jared’s forehead right before he collapsed to the ground.
The abrupt change took everyone aback. Even Edgar had no idea what was going on.
Meanwhile, a familiar, elderly voice cackled in Jared’s mind and said, “Hahaha! This is my ideal host. This strong body, this power! This is what I truly seek!”
It turned out the spirit in Edgar’s body had transplanted itself in Jared’s body instead.
Jared trumped Edgar in both physicality and ability. The spirit had had his eyes on Jared’s body since the very beginning.
It was the reason it encouraged Edgar to toy with Jared while he identified the perfect opportunity to enter his new host’s body.
A moment later, Jared slowly got to his feet. Lucidity had returned to his gaze, though he wore a massive frown.
“Jared…” Howard called out anxiously upon noticing Jared’s apparent recovery.
However, a still-frowning Jared ignored him and closed his eyes.
He was listening to the voice in his head, which proposed, “Jared, as long as you follow my orders, we can help each other out. I can kill all these people for you right now.”
“Who are you?” Jared used his spiritual sense to communicate with the foreign voice in his head.
He earned a threat in response. “That’s not important. All you need to do is to listen to my instructions. You’d be dead by now if it weren’t for me. I’m in your body now, and if you refuse to follow my instructions, I’ll take over your conscience and take this life in front of everyone.”
