The Medallion novel Chapter 1537

"What the hell is this place? It's so creepy and disgusting!" Eunice couldn't help but comment as she saw the inside of the treehouse. Her face distorted and she felt very anxious.

"We cannot dawdle in this place for long. We have to leave as soon as possible," Rocky remarked with a serious expression. According to his intuition, the owner of the treehouse must be an evil person. That was the only clear explanation of what they saw in there.

"But the Army-blessing Scroll must be here. We have to find it at all costs..." Eunice said hesitantly.

"I'll stay here and look for it, but you should get out of here and find a safe place to hide first," Rocky insisted. He thought that it would be too risky if both of them stayed in the eerie place. If someone had to stay, Rocky firmly decided that it had to be him.

"What? I can't just leave you here..." Of course, Eunice argued because she was also worried about Rocky's safety.

"Come on, give me the remaining page." Obviously, Rocky wouldn't listen to Eunice's complaint. He hurriedly asked for the remaining page of the Army-blessing Scroll to make her understand that he had already made up his mind.

At the same time, they suddenly felt an extremely strong aura coming closer at an incredible speed. The two of them involuntarily exchanged glances because they perceived that the aura had actually reached the Emperor Realm, meaning that the incoming warrior must be extremely powerful and dangerous.

"Be quick! Get into my Magic Spiritual Space!" Rocky shouted as he opened his Magic Spiritual Space. Before Eunice could even utter another word, he pushed her into the space and closed it immediately after. Then, he also rushed into the room that was filled with corpses, hid in a dark corner, and suppressed his aura as much as he could.

Not long after, Rocky heard some footsteps and groans from struggling.

"Humph! Although I failed to find those two guys, I still found a good experimental object. This girl has a special talent. I think I can still succeed if I use her body!" an old woman's voice echoed abruptly throughout the house in a strange and hoarse tone.

A few seconds later, Rocky, who was still hiding in the corner of the room, saw a delicate figure thrown into the room where he was. The girl was instantly frightened at the sight of all the corpses all over the room that her face turned ghastly pale.

Initially, Rocky tried to remain cool and composed, but when he had the opportunity to take a clear look at the girl's face, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and clench his fist. It turned out to be Carla, who had parted with him and Eunice as soon as they arrived in the Spiritual Sea Region.

He also noticed that Carla's acupuncture points were sealed, which was why she couldn't move freely or even make a sound. At the same time, her back was facing Rocky so she didn't notice that he was actually there hiding in the corner.

Even when he saw this situation, Rocky didn't dare to act rashly. With the strength at the Emperor Realm, the old woman would instantly find him as soon as he released a hint of his aura. Moreover, even with his current strength, he wasn't sure that he could easily escape from the hands of a warrior at the Emperor Realm. Additionally, he couldn't just ignore and leave Carla in this kind of situation. Therefore, he had no other choice but to wait some more and see how things would develop. Maybe he could find an opportunity later to take her away and escape from the house without having to face the old woman.

Soon enough, another figure came staggering into the room and turned out to be the old woman herself. She had a hunchback, a pockmarked face, and twisted facial features. As she approached Carla, she suddenly stretched her hands out, which were like a pair of withered claws, and instantly peeled off Carla's clothes. Then, she dragged Carla and tied her into the wooden pillar in the center of the room.

With a look of embarrassment and anger, Carla gave a cold glare at the old woman in front of her. She didn't expect that she would fall into this kind of situation and all she wanted was to teach the old woman a lesson.

"Ha-ha! You're so pitiful, aren't you?" The old woman looked satisfied as she stared back at Carla and let out a mocking smile. Then, she bit her finger until blood came out. With it, she drew a strange rune on Carla's porcelain-like skin. Weirdly enough, the blood instantly permeated into her skin and formed a tattoo-like mark on her body.

"Be honored that you're going to offer your body to me. Using you as a new vessel, I will be able to meet him again," the old woman remarked in a gruff voice. It was pretty evident that her turbid eyes were full of evil desires.

Meanwhile, except for feeling angry from the bottom of her heart, Carla could do nothing. She was like a lamb that was tied down and waiting to be slaughtered. At this point, she was actually losing all hopes of getting out of the old woman's lair alive.

'It seems that this old woman wants to take over Carla's body. She must be going to use some kind of forbidden technique and ritual to transfer her soul. I can't let her accomplish her goal!' Rocky thought, determined to help Carla no matter what.

After putting the blood mark on Carla's body, the old woman eventually turned around and walked out of the room.
