Screaming, Starbeck quickly hid behind Kieran . Sensing the familiar chilling feeling, Kieran turned around and unleashed a hard punch without even looking .
A lightning spark flashed as the formless soul was beaten to ashes .
[Lightning Punch: Inflicts 50 Damage to Target HP (25 Hand-to-Hand Combat (Pro) X2), Target is a formless wandering soul, Double Damage Inflicted, 100 Damage to Target HP, Target dies . . . ]
His earlier battle with the formless souls had familiarized Kieran with their attacking pattern .
Although he might be in trouble if he encountered a whole group of them, a single soul was a piece of cake for him .
Still, Kieran frowned at Starbeck’s cowardly scream .
The sharp sound pierced his ears, making him feel as if his eardrums were being torn apart . It triggered even more of Kieran’s anger .
He turned to Starbeck and told him in contempt, "Stop it! Unless you want to attract even more of them! If too many of them appear, I will leave you behind and save myself!"
His angry words stopped Starbeck’s cowardly screams .
The well-dressed man looked at Kieran pitifully . The elegance he’d had when they’d first met was long gone .
"Th… This was just an accident! It won’t happen again!" Starbeck tried to defend himself .
"Make sure it doesn’t! If there’s a next time, I will leave you behind!" Kieran warned him .
He might not have minded the extra reward, but that did not mean that he would place himself in harm’s way for it .
"Remember what I said . Stay within three steps of me, and if anything happens, stay calm!" Kieran explained clearly once again for both their sakes .
"Ye… Yes, sir!" Starbeck nodded .
"Can you see the formless souls?" Kieran asked out of curiosity after a short hesitation .
Kieran was relying on his [Tracking] and the [Knitted Talisman] to see the formless souls . Lawless’s sunglasses had to have a similar use . Although he had not said what they were for, it was quite obvious .
No doubt, Starbeck could also see the formless souls and other ghostly monsters . He might have some kind of similar skill or equipment as well .
Kieran felt that he had stepped over the line with his question, though .
"Never mind . It’s none of my business," he added quickly .
Kieran shook his hand, preventing Starbeck from answering .
Starbeck was startled, but he kept his mouth shut .
Yet after a second, the man spoke again, "I think you might need this . I can’t go into battle, but I sure can support you!"
He took out two magazines from his pocket and handed them over to Kieran .
He took out two magazines from his pocket and handed them over to Kieran .
[Name: Bullets of Blessing]
[Type: Ammunition]
[Rarity: Common]
[Attributes: Effective against negative-energy monsters, be that spirits, werewolves or vampires . They can cause considerable damage to them!]
[Effects: None]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remarks: It’s a 11 mm magazine crafted with pure silver and made through complicated craftsmanship . It’s blessed with holy power, so it’s of very high value!]
After inspecting the [Bullets of Blessing], Kieran accepted them without any objections .
It was exactly what he needed to kill the formless souls from a distance . He might still have the [Lightning Tiger’s Finger], but that might not be enough if he wanted to protect Starbeck with it too .
Once again, he was in awe of Starbeck’s wealth and generosity .
It was two magazines with fourteen rounds of bullets . Although Kieran could not know their exact price, based on the remarks at the end, they must have been very expensive .
"Keep up!" Kieran quickly urged Starbeck .
"Keep up!" Kieran quickly urged Starbeck .
He was still in awe of him, but he did not let it show on his face .
Activating [Tracking], Kieran followed the half-dead’s entry footprints, tracking them in the opposite direction .
Starbeck followed carefully behind him .
His eyes kept scanning the area around him . When they entered the corridor, Starbeck saw something and unconsciously opened his mouth wide, instinctively wanting to scream again .
Before the scream could escape his mouth, he quickly covered it with his hands .
It seemed like Starbeck had remembered his promise to Kieran, and his sharp screaming was reduced to a series of muffled noises .
As Starbeck was trying hard to keep his screams down, Kieran had already dashed out like a jaguar . Before the formless souls could even attack them, they were punched to ashes .
Kieran resumed following the footprints that had belonged to Zywane, the two of them moving forward .
From beginning till end, Kieran did not even spare a glance for Starbeck . He just kept signaling for him to keep up and stay close .
Formless souls were appearing out of nowhere, so Kieran had no time to even speak to Starbeck . His hand signals was the best he could do .
On their way from the third floor to the first floor, Kieran took out fifteen formless souls .
They were not as much as there had been during his first encounter . It was actually less than a tenth of them .
These formless souls were also slower and less smart than the previous ones, a fact that baffled Kieran .

These formless souls were also slower and less smart than the previous ones, a fact that baffled Kieran .
"Maybe the ones I encountered earlier were special?" he speculated .
He could not gather enough proof to support his guess, though . After all, Kieran could hardly even see the monsters clearly .
With his [Tracking], Kieran could spot every small detail in his line of sight, yet he still could not see the formless souls or any similar type of monster clearly . They were only a blur, as if he was seeing them through a foggy glass . He was also restricted by distance . When the monsters were 20 meters away, the blurriness got even worse, and anything further than 20 meters was completely out of his range of sight .
Fortunately, the stairs could be used now . After stepping down the last flight of stairs, they reached the first floor of the cell area, and the footprints Kieran had been following disappeared .
They were stopping at the corner of a piece of wall . If they explained the sudden disappearance of the half-dead, it might have made sense, but the footprints had been left behind by Zywane before he had turned to a half-dead, and Zywane could not have possessed any abilities like that .
If Zywane had had the ability to disappear and reappear at will, he definitely would not have been a fourth timer . He would have had to be at least at the same level as Lawless or even higher . That was impossible, though . The system notification about the average dungeon entry had said it all .
That only left one explanation . There had to be a secret passage somewhere around that area .
A secret corridor that even the Warden and the guards did not know about .
Kieran raised his hand and touched the wall inch by inch, searching for any gaps .
Suddenly, a noise was heard . Kieran was really happy to hear it . It was what he had expected . There was a secret passageway behind the wall . Kieran inspected the wall with even more care, looking for a switch to open the secret door, until…
Crack!
The sudden sound of a switch stopped Kieran . He raised his head and looked towards the source of the sound .
