However, just as this palm was about to get close to Romo, he realized it instantly. This was because in that instant, the energy in his body had instantly increased by more than ten times.

Romo’s reaction was very sharp. Before the attacker could react, he quickly grabbed his wrist and exerted strength forward. His palm seemed to have gone through his body.

“Poof!” A loud sound came from the darkness, as if something had been pushed out.

Romo looked calmly at the thin figure in front of him. At the same time, the black fog in front of him was dissipating gradually, and the visibility had increased.

Although he was very thin, Romo could still see the surprise in his eyes. That’s right, this person was none other than Alan Heber.

Alan Heber dared not look Romo in the eye at all. He had no choice but to look down at the ground. At the same time, he was still deeply shocked. He had not known or even imagined that his sneak attack would fail.

Time seemed to have stopped. Romo retracted his right hand. With another loud sound, Romo looked down at his right hand. There was not a trace of blood, and there was even a lot of dried flesh. When Romo opened his hand, he was holding a Golden Pill the size of an egg.

Romo had long known that when a top Mage’s cultivation base reached the seventh level, he would have the ability to refine a Golden Pill in his body. The effect of the Golden Pill not only increased the energy in his body greatly, but it was also equivalent to his second heart. When faced with a fatal threat, the Golden Pill could be used to save his life.

The black phantom which had just been sent flying by Romo was Alan Heber’s soul. The Golden Pill was also located in the heart of this phantom.

The soul of a high-level Mage would not perish for a short period of time. Even if the body were to die from a major attack, the soul would still be able to survive for a period of time.

However, if he had a Golden Pill in his body, his soul would be able to survive for a longer period of time. If he could save his soul during this period of time, he would become a demon.

Romo’s actions just now had controlled Alan Heber’s physical body and also extracted the Golden Pill from his body. His soul had also been separated from his physical body. This way, Alan Heber would not have any chance to resist Romo.

Alan Heber had never expected Romo’s reaction to be so fast. However, now that things had come to this, there was nothing he could do except let Romo decide his fate.

Romo let go of his left hand, and Alan Heber’s physical body lay on the ground. He looked at Alan Heber’s soul and smiled smugly.

Alan Heber finally came out from his shock. “Who are you? Did you already know that I was going to sneak an attack on you? Otherwise, why were you able to react so quickly? Have you concealed your strength earlier?”

Romo heard the words, and another scornful smile slipped from his lips. “Of course. I have never believed in you from the beginning. You are not Alan Heber at all, are you, Stefan?”

Hearing the name Stefan, the soul looked even more shocked. “How… How do you know my real name? Who are you?”

That’s right, Romo had long known that the person in front of him was not Alan Heber at all, and that his real name was Stefan.

Of course, only Romo knew this. The others did not.

In other words, it was impossible for anyone in this era to know Stefan.

“I didn’t expect to see you here. Speaking of which, we are old friends from 500 years ago,” Romo said slowly. “To be honest, I had also doubted whether my guess was correct at first. I also couldn’t believe that you were the person I knew hundreds of years ago.”

“Who… who the hell are you?” Stefan looked increasingly shocked, as if he had just seen a demon.

Romo was about to say something when he realized that the surrounding zombies had started to attack again. Romo was still looking at Stefan, but he waved a book with magical power casually. The zombies exploded instantly, emitting a loud sound that reverberated throughout the valley.

Romo was currently in the second stage of transformation, which meant that dealing with these zombies was a piece of cake.

After the surrounding obstacles had disappeared, Romo continued to talk to Stefan, “Of course you wouldn’t have recognized me. After all, when we met, I was already an old man. Moreover, my magical power and aura were completely different from before.”

These few words naturally did not clear Stefan’s doubts. “Who… who are you? Tell me quickly.”

Romo, however, was not anxious. He prepared to tell the story of the two of them slowly. “Don’t worry, let’s take our time to guess. When I introduced myself to you earlier, only my surname was real. I wonder if my surname has reminded you of anything?”

Stefan thought for a moment. “Your surname is Nicholas?” Slowly, as if he had thought of something, his eyes suddenly widened. “You’re Romo Nicholas, right? Is that you? But how is this possible? How did you become like this?”

“You didn’t expect this, did you? When all of you betrayed me in the secret realm and plotted against me, you definitely didn’t expect this day, right? I also didn’t expect to bump into an old friend from hundreds of years ago here,” Romo deliberately emphasized ‘old friend’ when he spoke.

Upon hearing this, Stefan’s soul began to shake. “Romo, you actually did not die. How can you not be dead? Ahhh!”

Romo looked at Stefan like he was looking at a clown. He playfully enjoyed his shocked expression. “My death is definitely related to you, but I never thought that one day I would be able to kill you myself to take revenge. However, this is really interesting. You came to this place because you had listened to me, right?”

That’s right, Stefan was Romo’s “old friend” from 500 years ago.

500 years ago, Romo, who was at the peak of magical power, had formed a treasure-hunting team with a group of Magi. Unexpectedly, the group of them betrayed Romo and plotted against him, causing Romo to die, full of hatred.

Stefan was one of the many Magi who had betrayed Romo.

Romo had recognized Stefan from the first moment he saw him, but Romo did not expose him immediately. Instead, he had waited until now to see if Stefan had any schemes this time, and also to find a quiet place to kill his enemy with his own hands.

Therefore, Romo had not trusted Stefan from the beginning. Also, from Stefan’s demeanor, Romo had speculated that he might launch a sneak attack on him.

This was also why Romo was able to react quickly and break Stefan’s scheme.
