My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2688

In a hidden cave, Nash sat in a corner with his battered body. Surrounding him were three motionless masked figures.

He did not rush to remove their hoods as he needed to adapt to the ritualistic weapons within him after expending a significant amount of true energy during the battle.

However, he could clearly sense a resonance from the energy emanating from the masked individuals. "These three must've been sent by the last owners of the ritualistic weapons," he thought.

"The Heaven-Destroyer Magma, huh? Looks like they see me as an enemy."

He decided to focus on the immediate situation.

Nash stood up and walked deeper into the mountains.

…

Meanwhile, Fogort experienced constant interruptions from the warriors in the estate. They all wanted to test his ritualistic weapon.

Fogort had no intention of refusing them as these individuals, while possessing the Heaven-Destroyer Magma, varied in their mastery of it.

By engaging with them, Fogort could further enhance his control over his abilities. Hence, why not take the opportunity?

Besides, these fighters were quite skilled, each at a respectable level. With the enhancement effect of the Heaven-Destroyer Magma, they could perform unexpectedly powerful moves.

Fogort treated it as a chance to broaden his horizons and welcomed anyone who wished to challenge him.

Thus, a week passed peacefully. One day, Fogort got up as usual and headed toward the dining hall of the villa.

Therefore, what he needed to do was extract the core's power!

Tamsine stared at him, her eyes wide open in horror. Fogort expressed his thoughts, "Listen carefully. I can maintain this state with my power, but even if the doctor arrives, it might not change the situation fundamentally.

"I need to temporarily extract your power from your body."

"Is that possible?" Regardless, Tamsine nodded without hesitation.

With that, Fogort began the extraction ritual. Having spent considerable time interacting with those bearing the power of the Heaven-Destroyer Magma, he felt confident that he could retrieve the power before exhausting all his talismans.

He initiated the extraction process.
