Chapter 62: The Insight

"It won't be long before we're there, Vice-Captain. Raven took a bite of the compressed biscuit in his hand, and beside him, Ye Xiang was holding a kettle and drinking water.

They carry enough food and water to last for weeks, so there's no need to worry about that, what they really need to worry about is how the next battle will go.

"Where are we now. Ye Xiang suddenly turned around and asked.

"I look at the map. Raven took the map that Baryl had given them from his backpack, and after a moment of study, Raven pointed to a place and spoke.

"Probably at this location, close enough to the Abaddon Palace, we were able to get there through the canyon passage in front. ”

"Do you have an unobstructed view?" Ye Xiang couldn't help frowning as he looked at the map, "The place we are going to pass through next has no hidden place at all, which means that we will be completely exposed to the enemy's field of vision." ”

"But if we don't pass through here, we'll have to go the other way. Raven frowned when he heard this, "But this road is in the middle of the mountains, so I don't know how long it will take to reach my destination. ”

"That's right, Raven. Ye Xiang said, "There is not much time left until Satan's resurrection, and we can't spend any extra time on the road." ”

"That is to say, we are still following the same route. Raven looked at Ye Xiang's eyes and said.

"The original route remains the same. Ye Xiang finally made a decision, "Even if our whereabouts are exposed, there is no way to do it, no matter what, we must rush to the Abaddon Palace as soon as possible." ”

Ye Xiang tightened the lid of the kettle, looked into the distance for a moment, and then turned his head to Raven and said, "It's almost time to rest, it's time for us to go." ”

"It's ready. Raven shoved the last bit of biscuits into his mouth, and then stuffed the bag into his backpack, after all, they must not leave any traces now, or the enemy would follow them.

"Let's go, then. Ye Xiang took a deep breath, "Let's go, Raven." ”

The figures of the two of them quickly turned into two black dots, and then disappeared into the distance of the road.

Inside the Palace of Abaddon.

Kane walked down the long aisle, silent all around, except for the constant sound of footsteps.

The time has come. This is Kane's own judgment, the day of Satan's return should be tomorrow, then there is no time left, and action must be taken immediately.

For a long time, Kane had planned everything, and he was confident that he would succeed this time, no, he had to succeed no matter what!

The war had gone far beyond Kane's expectations, but it had turned out to be more in his favor, and Kane even felt that he had been too lucky.

Now the only people who could pose a threat to the palace of Abaddon were Mephistopheles and Faust, and so far they had not expressed any doubts about what he had done, so the plan should go smoothly.

"You seem to be in a hurry. Kane was shocked, he stopped all of a sudden, and the voice he didn't want to hear sounded at this time.

"No, Rex, I should call you Faust now. Kane immediately smiled, "Why, do you have so much time to hang out here?"

"Just for a casual walk. Faust winked at Kane, "But you're impatient compared to me." ”

"Where there is. Kane shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm just a little tired, so I want to get back to my room and get some rest as soon as possible." ”

"Oh, I understand. Faust laughed, "Everyone gets tired sometimes, and when they are tired, they want to rest quickly." ”

"That's it. Kane secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"But it's not just your room that leads to this road. Faust abruptly said, "There's another person's room that can be reached by this road, and I shouldn't be wrong about that?"

"Do you mean Shore's room?" Kane replied unusually calmly, "yes, the road does lead there, but I'm not going there. ”

"Who knows?" Faust smiled, "No one knows what's going on in your mind, what if, of course, this is just my guess, what if you go to Shore to discuss something?"

"Nonsense. Kane replied calmly, "That man will not negotiate terms with me as a traitor, and I will not talk to him, everything you are saying now is completely imaginary." ”

"Not necessarily, right?" Faust just smiled at Kane.

"So you're questioning my loyalty to Hell?" Kane raised his voice slightly.

"So to speak. Faust's tone gradually became cold, "After all, you are still a human after all, and it is impossible to trust you 100%. ”

"And what about you?" Kane asked with a sneer, "don't you think what you just said is appropriate for yourself?"

"No, I'm fundamentally different from you. Faust slowly walked up to Kane, his eyes like arrows.

"Then you can tell me and see what the difference is. ”

"You may have forgotten that I'm neither a demon nor a human. Faust sneered, "This way I am different from you, and neither party can trust me, which makes my situation extremely safe." ”

"Because neither side can tell whose side I will fall towards, I can't guess what I'm going to do, and that's why it's up to me to decide. ”

He was right, Kane thought to himself. Both the human side and the hellish side will definitely do their best to win over Faust, because in the current situation, he is undoubtedly a powerful force.

"So which side are you fighting for?" Kane asked.

"It's all up to me. Faust replied, "I don't need to tell you, Kane. ”

"Then please don't waste my time any more. Kane kept smiling throughout, "I'm really feeling a little tired, so let me go back to my room." ”

"Absolutely. Faust got out of the way.

Kane walked past Faust without saying a word, but the next moment Faust reached out and grabbed him firmly by the shoulder.

"Don't make a wrong judgment, Kane, if you are not careful on this path, you will die without a place to live, this is my reminder to you. ”

"Thank you. Kane said as he reached out and pulled Faust's hand away, "I'll remember the reminder you gave me." ”

"I hope you can. Faust withdrew his hand, and walked away without looking back.

Kane breathed again, what had just happened was completely unexpected, and Faust's last words seemed to have a deeper meaning.

Could he have been, no, impossible, impossible for him to know. Kane felt his heart beat faster, and even if he knew, I wouldn't stop, because I was here to get back into this world!

Kane quickly passed the aisle, but when he came to the place where Shore's room was, he couldn't help but be secretly taken aback.

In just one day, there were already more than a dozen demon guards outside the door of Shore's room, and he didn't expect Mephistopheles to use so many troops to guard a person.

"What do you do? One of the demon guards asked unceremoniously, apparently Kane was still a human in their eyes, so they had no respect for Kane.

"I'm here to take the prisoners out. Kane said in a calm tone.

The demon guard who asked him laughed, "Do you have orders from Master Mephistopheles, if not, get me out of here, I don't want a human to stay here for too long." ”

The other demons around laughed too, for them, even if Kane's strength was far above them, he was only a human after all, and the demons' contempt for humans had always been the same.

"You're right, I'm human. Kane smiled as he walked up to the demon guard, "But I'm going to tell you one thing now, and that's to never underestimate humans!"

In the next second, the demon had already crashed to the ground, and Kane drew back the short sword that had stabbed him in the chest, then looked back at the remaining demons.

The battle was over quickly, and it took only a few minutes in total, and Kane killed all the demons unscathed, not even looking at the corpses on the ground, but just opening the door to the room.

"It's all settled?" said Shore sat in the chair closest to the door, a smile on his face.

"It's all settled. Kane smiled heartily, "It's time to start, old friend." ”

"Then according to the original plan, the troops will be divided into two ways. Shore stood up at once, "Vincent will be handed over to you, and I'll take her away." ”

"That's it. Kane, for example, took a roll of paper from his waist and threw it to Shore, "This is a map of the interior of the palace of Abaddon, and I have marked the place where Maia was stored, go and get them back." ”

"It's really all that you've thought about. Shore looked at the map in his hand and smiled, "Compared to the original, you are more cautious, I don't know how much, even I have to be impressed." ”

"I'd like to see how you're doing. Kane also smiled and said, "When the time comes, you must make more progress than anyone else." ”

"Will let you see. Shore put away the map, "Now that the operation begins, we'll meet there as originally planned." ”

"Yes, there it is. Kane nodded, "Time waits for no one, let's go now." ”

But the two of them didn't know that now everything they had done had been fully seen by Faust, who saw all this and just smiled helplessly.

"Sure enough, it turned out to be like this, but it was supposed to be like this. Kane, you are willing to endure humiliation to such an extent, even I have to praise it from the bottom of my heart!"

Faust turned to look through the window at the red sky outside the palace, as if he had thought of something, but in the end there was only complete coldness in his eyes.

"In that case, then I will carry out the orders I have received. Faust sighed, "I didn't intend to do what I do, and I even hoped you wouldn't have done it at the last minute. ”

He packed his bags and walked to his door, reaching for the doorknob, but not unscrewing it immediately.

"But each of us chooses a different path, doesn't we?" said Faust with a deep breath, and then unscrewed the doorknob all at once. "Well, then, I have to go on the path I have chosen. ”
