“Transcendent powers? Controlling humans?”

Su Lu muttered to himself, yet he felt nothing unusual.

He was certain of it.

When he saw Erha, the husky, during the day, it was just a regular dog.

Even though it now had a bit of power, it could at most hypnotize ordinary people, and wouldn’t be able to do anything against first-order occupational professionals, let alone him.

The scene was peculiar.

Isaac, the owner of the dog, seemed to have become the servant, kneeling on the ground with hands raised. If he had a tail, it would probably be wagging at Hallock.

Hallock, with a stern glance, swept around the scene, not caring for Su Lu who was standing off to the side enjoying the show, and buried his head in the plate, eating voraciously.

‘Was it at night, while we were sleeping, that something extraordinary occurred to it, giving it a bit of hypnotic power?’ Su Lu speculated as he watched Hallock’s dog eyes, feeling as if he saw through everything.

‘More importantly, Erha, despite having transcendent capabilities, is still Erha…’

Looking at the messy eating Hallock, Su Lu felt a moment of discomfort.

The following day, early in the morning.

“Ah ha…”

Isaac came out of the tent, stretching as a strange look emerged on his face, “Last night I had a weird dream… Hallock, it was you! Don’t run!”

As he caught hold of Hallock, sizing up the solemn dog face, he suddenly laughed, “I dreamed that I served you meat all night… Goddess above, I almost believe it…”

“I…I think I might have dreamt of that too.”

James gazed at the surroundings, his eyes somewhat foggy.

“Ah!”

At this moment, Diana and Elizabeth, who were making breakfast, shrieked, “Where’s our meat?”

They had prepared a lot of food for the camping trip.

But now, masses of meat and bones were in disarray.

“Hallock! It must have been you! Right?”

Isaac roared at the husky, “Look at what you’ve done!”

“Wait a minute… the grill and pot were used. This doesn’t seem like something a dog could do…”

John, looking at the grill, said slowly.

Five pairs of eyes glanced at each other before finally landing on Su Lu.

“I… I didn’t do anything.”

Su Lu responded with a wry smile, touching his nose, well, other than enjoying your performance.

“Bones! So many bones… and the tooth marks on them…”

Soon, Isaac spotted the rock where Hallock had feasted the night before, full of scattered bones, and cast a doubtful look at Hallock.

“Woof…woof!”

Erha, as if encouraged, went to the back of the rock, fetched a bone, and wagged his tail enthusiastically in front of Isaac.

“It was indeed you, the meat thief!”

Isaac was so angry that he wanted to find a stick.

But at this moment, Su Lu stopped him, “Wait a minute… look! There’s something wrong with this bone!”

The bones scattered on the ground were fresh and had bite marks of a dog.

But the bone Erha carried was different, it looked like a femur bone, it was dry and yellow, evidently quite old.

“This seems… to be a human thigh bone… I have seen similar specimens in medical school!”

Elizabeth, who had gathered around, let out a screech.

“Don’t be scared!”

James and John immediately comforted, “We are so many people here… could it be that there was a murder nearby?”

The two girls turned pale, hugging their arms, trembling.

“Considering its dry and yellow color, it’s been some years… Isaac, does Hallock have a habit of digging holes?”

Su Lu took the dry bone from Erha and scrutinized it. His eyes sparkled as he speculated.

He had a hunch that this could be a transcendent’s remains!

“Of course… you have no idea what it has done to my garden!”

Isaac nodded furiously.

“So it’s clear… that there is a grave nearby, and Hallock unintentionally disturbed the owner of the grave!”

Su Lu stated his inference, holding back his suspicion that the grave may belong to a transcendent.

“God! Grave robbery is a serious crime!”

In the Federation, such an act is severely condemned both legally and doctrinally.

“But… but Hallock is just a dog!”

Isaac, the owner, stuttered in his defense.

If things really turned out this way, as the owner, he would inevitably be held accountable.

“Alright, no one is blaming you, and there seems to be no sign of a cemetery nearby… perhaps it was just an accident, we can let Hallock lead the way and go check!”

Su Lu suggested.

His [Spirit Medium] sense was still active, and he had already detected a hint of the cold breath belonging to a revenant.

This meant they were already being observed by certain beings, a problem that would not be solved by escaping.

Although… it may just be some insignificant creature, it would still be sufficient to deal with ordinary people.

“I think… we should go check!”

James gave his opinion, “What do you guys think?”

The two girls seemed to have recovered from their initial fear. Their eyes were blinking non-stop as they thought through something, “We don’t want to be left alone in the camp, so…”

“Let’s all go together if we’re going!” John finally concluded.

“Then, let’s go!”

The six of them didn’t even have time for breakfast, they took some simple tools and hit the road.

With Isaac instructing the husky, Hallock was leading the way.

Half an hour later, they arrived at a small hill.

There was no sign of human activity around, nor were there any signs of a cemetery.

A gust of wind blew over, adding to the desolation of the environment.

“Is it really here?”

Elizabeth tightened her clothes.

“Hallock… take me to where you found this bone. There will be a reward!” Isaac gestured with the bone in his hand.

The husky, joyful, wagged its tail, and led them to the other side of the hill.

There, an obvious collapse had occurred.

And above the collapsed section was a cave.

Hallock crawled inside and soon emerged, dragging out a skull. The hollow eye sockets seemed to be gazing at everyone.

“It really is… a human bone.”

Diana’s shaky voice couldn’t hide her trembling.

“The truth is clear. This person might just be an ordinary victim, buried in the mound… a recent collapse brought his body to the surface, which was then dug up by Hallock.”

Isaac seemed relieved, “There is no cemetery or any signs nearby… so by law, this is not grave robbing.”

“Hey, bro,”

John laughed and came forward, throwing a punch at Isaac, “Even if you did do it, do you think we would take you down for this? How could that be? We’re brothers!”

“No! I didn’t do it, it was my dog…”

Isaac’s defense fell on deaf ears.

Meanwhile, Hallock dragged even more items out of the cave, some shiny accessories among them, attracting everyone’s attention.
