Chapter 312: Chapter 7: Aemon Takes the Fall! Stealing Sealed Object No. 1! Conservative Demigod

Shawn had lived in Dorne City for so long that he couldn’t be more familiar with the Night Watch Headquarters.

He skillfully made his way to the vicinity of the underground labyrinth where the sealed objects were stored, then began to cast spells on himself, completely concealing his presence. Although Shawn had swapped bodies using the Mind Exchange, his Casting Level remained unchanged. Transcendent beings on the Mind Path could permanently swap bodies if necessary, using a change of identity to hide themselves. However, permanent mind swapping would lead to a decrease in Extraordinary Level and a loss of part of one’s fused Extraordinary Essence.

In the entire Night Watch Headquarters, only one person could threaten Shawn’s existence, and that was the mysterious Tomb Guardian. However, she had already been sent away by Lady Hecate. The Tomb Guardian’s Legendary Domain seemed to be related to souls and tranquility, but even other demigods were unaware of her exact profession; they only knew her basic profession was a Witch. (PS: Basic professions like Warlocks, Rangers, and Druids are generally easier to identify, while advanced professions are much harder, and Legendary professions even more so, because one can create their own legendary profession.)

Currently, throughout the Realm of Reality, hardly anyone below the legendary Destiny can match Shawn.

He actually could resurrect and return to Dorne City as ’Sean’ to access Sealed Object No. 1, but doing so would put him within the sights of other Death Demigods again. Aemon and Lady Hecate had gone to great lengths to use ’Unknown to Divine Eye’ to jointly perform a staged play to obscure his destiny; bringing himself to the attention of other Death Demigods again would be a foolish move. After experiencing so much, Shawn also learned more about the details from back then; it turned out that when ’Sean’ died, indeed, a living corpse had been buried.

That was truly Sean’s body.

Lady Hecate used the Cloning Technique of the Necromancy School to copy Shawn’s body and then buried it as his corpse.

This managed to deceive Captain Benjamin and the upper echelons of the Path of Death.

—Advanced Invisibility Technique (Fourth Ring Spell).

This spell is similar in effect to the Second Ring Invisibility Technique, but the major difference is that attacks won’t reveal the caster, like fighting an invisible person. The Ninth Ring has an Ultimate Invisibility Technique, which conceals even scents and shadows, making it impossible to see the target even if the invisibility is broken.

Shawn smoothly passed all the dark sentinels and saw a burly man walking down the stairs, none other than Jason Tangel of the Barbarian Path; he seemed injured, with one arm bandaged.

"As long as I don’t alert old acquaintances, there shouldn’t be a problem."

The underground of the Night Watch Headquarters had a barrier for dispelling invisibility, which posed no difficulty for Shawn. Coming here was like sneaking into his own home, as he had already come and gone from the underground labyrinth many times.

—Dimensional Jump.

Shawn used Dimensional Jump at its maximum distance, locking onto a position from memory, forcing his way through the Holy Gate area, which was under constant True Knowledge Skill, making anyone who approached noticeable.

—Stone Walking Skill (Fifth Ring Spell).

Earth Escape. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

This spell is similar to the Earth Escape in the Eastern Five Elements Escape Technique, though it lasts for a shorter duration—one Extraordinary Level lasts 6 seconds. Shawn could only maintain it for 17 rounds, but that was enough to reach the boundary area of the underground labyrinth.

He could force his way through, but the Night Watch Headquarters’ perimeter had a small Maze Lock protection barrier.

—Stone to Mud.

Upon touching the walls of the underground labyrinth, Shawn’s Stone Walking Skill expired. He gently raised his palm, closed his eyes to sense the orientation, and directly transformed the solid marble into soft mud.

He was in.

The security level of the underground labyrinth was very high, but it couldn’t stop a Level 17 arcane and mind dual-path caster. Shawn didn’t take the main entrance; once inside the area, he immediately concealed his presence and accurately located Sealed Object No. 1 based on memory.

The nearby secret rooms seemed slightly restless, with black sludge flowing out under Spiritual Vision. It was unknown what these sealed objects were, but Shawn did not provoke them.

A minute later, a secret room completely bound by a Rune Chain appeared before him.

The last rune lock.

This lock couldn’t be opened by conventional means due to it being a Secret Technique Lock, but Shawn had a more forceful method.

—Great Dissociation Technique (Ninth Ring Spell)!

Shawn took out the Secret Technique Scroll borrowed from Lady Hecate, and with a violent surge of magic power, the restriction before him was completely disassembled. He had come to steal Sealed Object No. 1, backed by two demigods offering support: one providing assistance, the other ready to take the blame.

Snap.

Shawn pushed open the heavy door; he only had a minute before the Night Watch Headquarters would react.

"Do you want to come with me?" Shawn’s calm voice rose.

Sealed Object No. 1 was a sentient forbidden artifact, and the moment Shawn entered the secret room, the black monitor lit up. A series of cables, like animated tentacles, flickered with flashing arcs; it seemed to peer directly into Shawn’s soul, displaying jumping characters on the monitor: "You’re back..."

Shawn repeated once again, "Do you want to come with me?"

The screen of Sealed Object No. 1 flickered, seeming hesitant, but it quickly responded, "Yes!"

Half-Plane Teleportation Gate.

Shawn immediately cast a spell to tear through space, sending the massive form of Sealed Object No. 1 into his own half-plane. Placing Sealed Object No. 1 anywhere else would be unsafe; only his half-plane could properly accommodate this colossal entity.
