The two of them exchanged a few words briefly, and then Adrian contacted the number one person in the assassin organization through the magic communication device and informed him of Lu Ming's arrival.

Afterwards, Adrian took Lu Ming to a secret room.

He stopped and did not follow Lu Ming in. Instead, he stood respectfully outside the door, as if to show some kind of respect or rules.

Lu Ming looked at the seemingly ordinary secret room door in front of him, and couldn't help but feel curious. What kind of secret was hidden behind this door?

When Lu Ming pushed open the door of the secret room and stepped inside, he was shocked by the scene before him.

Originally, looking from the outside, this secret room was not big, and could even be said to be quite ordinary, but when his foot actually stepped over the threshold, the scene before him changed drastically in an instant.

Lu Ming found himself in a huge space, an area of ​​one square kilometer, which was completely beyond his previous knowledge and expectations.

Obviously, there is a huge space magic circle arranged in this secret room, so there is such a large independent space.

The interior layout and design of this huge space are full of mystery and magic.

The walls are inlaid with various magic crystals, which emit a soft and mysterious light, illuminating the entire space.

In the center of the space, there is a huge circular platform with complex instruments and magic circles placed on it. It seems that some high-level research or ritual is being carried out.

Lu Ming's eyes scanned the space and finally stopped on a figure sitting in the center of the platform.

The figure was wearing a black robe and his face was covered by a hood, but judging from the majestic aura emanating from him, he must be the number one figure in the killer organization.

Lu Ming's heart trembled. He could feel the power of this figure, which was unfathomable in a different way from Adrian's.

Person No. 1 stood up slowly. His voice was deep and magnetic, with an unquestionable authority: "Welcome, Lu Ming. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

As his voice fell, the entire space seemed to shake, as if responding to his words.

Then, under Lu Ming's gaze, Person No. 1 slowly lifted his hood, revealing a weathered yet heroic face.

He looked to be around fifty years old, but the traces of time had not diminished his sharp eyes and resolute features.

His hair was silver-white, like the purest snowflakes in winter, and his eyes were like the deep night sky, containing endless wisdom and experience.

He has a straight nose and tightly pursed lips, giving people a sense of majesty without even being angry.

His skin was slightly pale, forming a sharp contrast with his silver hair. This might be due to working in the dark for a long time with little sunlight.

On his left cheek, there is a long scar, which seems to be a mark left in a battle, adding a bit of toughness and mystery to him.

The number one person is named Xavier Noseworthy, a name that is almost taboo in the dark world.

He is the founder and supreme commander of the assassin organization. His methods are ruthless and his mind is meticulous. Many people regard him as an invincible shadow. But in front of Lu Ming, he showed unprecedented approachability, as if he wanted Lu Ming to feel a special trust and attention.

"My name is Xavier Noseworthy, and it's nice to meet you."

Xavier's voice was deep and magnetic, and every word revealed his control over the situation and his insight into the future.

"I'm glad to see you too, Mr. Xavier!" Lu Ming smiled indifferently and responded politely. But secretly, he released his spiritual sense and carefully observed the man in front of him.

From Xavier, Lu Ming felt a rare sense of oppression and a hint of crisis, as well as the god-level power that only the undead godhead in his mind possessed.

At the same time, Xavier also looked at Lu Ming with a smile on his face. His eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, and no secret could escape.

In an instant, Xavier seemed to realize something.

As a powerful god, he could no longer remain calm and screamed in disbelief: "This is the breath of the Undead Godhead! You... You actually got the Godhead of the Undead God Kux! "

As he spoke, Xavier stared at Lu Ming, his breathing quickening.

After confirming it again and again, Xavier suddenly realized and murmured, "No wonder those corrupted creatures of the Dark Council are chasing you! They must have sensed the breath of the Godhead in advance, so this is why they are like this."

When Lu Ming heard these words, he also knew for the first time that the owner of the divine power in his mind was actually called Kukes.

At the same time, he also felt a little surprised.

I didn't expect that the secret of the undead godhood would be seen through by the man in front of me at a glance.

But considering that the other party is a god-level powerful being, it seems reasonable that he can sense the divinity in his mind.

Although Lu Ming was a little nervous about this, he was not afraid.

After all, his current strength is at the late stage of Demon Infant, and his magician level is at the late stage of Holy Domain. In addition, there are a lot of treasures in his space ring. He is not afraid at all when facing a god-level strong man.

What's more, his biggest trump card is Lu Tuntian.

If Xavier dares to attack, and Lu Ming is unable to defeat him, he can just let Lu Tuntian use the Heaven-Devouring Demon Jar.

Under the terrifying might of the imperial soldiers, no matter how powerful a god-level warrior he is, he will be suppressed and unable to raise his head in a minute.

It is because of this background that Lu Ming dared to come as invited.

Just when Lu Ming was alert and ready to take action at any time to prevent Xavier from snatching the godhood, Xavier frowned and muttered, "Weird, in addition to the special aura of the undead godhood, you also have a strange black energy in your body. It is neither a dark magic element nor any magic element from the magic continent."

"To be able to reach the Saint Realm level in such a short time, and to challenge the Church of Light alone, and even kill six Saint Realm level strongmen of the Church of Light, this is definitely not luck!"

"Are you really the incarnation of a god from a higher plane as the rumors say?"

Faced with such questions, Lu Ming calmly replied: "I am me, not the incarnation of some god."

Hearing this, Xavier showed a barely perceptible smile on his face. He seemed to have expected Lu Ming's answer, but he still maintained a high level of interest. He shook his head gently, his eyes flashing with understanding and respect: "Everyone has their own secrets. Since you don't want to tell, I won't ask any more questions."

"We are all adults and should know how to respect each other's privacy. Besides, your strength does deserve my respect."

Then, Xavier's words became more frank: "You don't have to worry that I will covet the undead godhood in you. In fact, I have already become a god and condensed my own godhood. Regarding your situation, I have enough self-control and reason, and I will not do anything stupid."

He continued, "Besides, there are far more secrets hidden in you than just these. Even I can't fully see through them."

"After I discovered the secret of your godhood, you were still able to stand still so calmly. This shows that you still have a trump card that I haven't learned yet, which makes you confident that you can compete with a god-level strongman."

"So, no matter who you really are, I have no reason to act rashly against you."

Xavier's voice became more solemn: "More importantly, no matter whether you are the incarnation of God or something else, you are now a member of my organization, and we are both the common enemy of the Church of Light."

“We have the same goals and interests on this point.”

"Therefore, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. I sincerely hope to cooperate with you to fight against the Church of Light and contribute to our cause."

Xavier's words were full of sincerity and determination.

He believes that as long as both parties can build trust, nothing is impossible.

Lu Ming put down his guard, broke the solemn atmosphere with a smile, and said: "I agree with your views. I came here this time because I am curious about your identity and want to see what kind of person you are. On the other hand, I want to have a deeper cooperation."

So during the frank communication, the two of them had a great time talking, and Lu Ming got to know Xavier better.

It turns out that Xavier is not only a dark magician, but also a knight who is proficient in both magic and martial arts.

In addition, he was a warrior who participated in the Battle of Sky City in ancient times.

Back then, under the leadership of the undead god Kux, Xavier led the dark warriors to fight against the Church of Light.

After overthrowing the Sky City, he quietly retired and practiced in seclusion, seeking an opportunity to break through to the god level.

When he broke through to the god level and was born, he found that the god of the undead, Kux, had fallen. In order to fight against the Church of Light, he hid in the dark and founded a killer organization.

Xavier and Kux are both comrades-in-arms and friends.

Lu Ming obtained Kukes's divinity, which meant that he was Kukes's successor.

In addition, Lu Ming’s current strength is enough to compete with god-level powerhouses.

So he and Xavier are half friends, right?

When the conversation was over, the two reached an agreement on certain things. Xavier said with some anticipation: "Lu Ming, we have finished discussing cooperation, so let's have a duel!"

“Although you are only a Saint-level warrior, you have been recognized by Kukes’s godhood, and you have hidden so many secrets that I cannot see through. I want to know how strong you really are!”

"In the process of fighting with me, you can also learn some experience of fighting against god-level strongmen, and make some preparations in advance for the future battle with the Pope of Light."

Lu Ming readily agreed to this idea and said with a smile: "This is a good suggestion, so let's get started!"

In the center of the fighting arena shrouded by a magic circle, Lu Ming and Xavier stood at each end of the arena, staring at each other.

There was a subtle sense of tension in the air, as if even the air had frozen, waiting for the battle to break out.

"Shadow Blade!" Xavier launched the first attack, waving the wand in his hand and chanting obscure spells.

As his voice fell, a crack seemed to be torn in the air, and countless distorted shadows emerged from it.

These shadows quickly condensed and formed sharp shadow blades. They floated in the air like the scythes of the god of death, flashing with cold light.

Xavier waved his finger, and shadow blades attacked Lu Ming like a rainstorm, each containing enough power to tear apart space.

The Shadow Blades continued to split during their flight, and their number increased exponentially, making it difficult for Lu Ming to determine the true direction of the attack.

"Ghost Barrier!" Facing Xavier's fierce attack, Lu Ming was not at all panicked.

He took a deep breath, quickly formed seals with his hands in front of his chest, and chanted a string of ancient spells.

As the spell was completed, a cold aura of the undead suddenly emerged from Lu Ming's body. These auras quickly condensed and formed a barrier composed of ghosts.

The ghost barrier was like an invisible wall, blocking Lu Ming.

When the Shadow Blade hit the Ghost Barrier, a violent collision occurred between the two. The Shadow Blade was attracted by the resentment on the Ghost Barrier, and its speed gradually slowed down, and was finally absorbed by the barrier and turned into nothingness.
