Chapter 97: Confidential (100 Monthly Pass Plus Update)
As the days passed, Ryuji felt that the atmosphere in Adal-Malik City was getting more and more eccentric.
Ever since that weather, the city of Adal-Malik has been shrouded in black lightning, which has not stopped for a moment, as if it has locked the city.
However, the lightning did not affect the lives of the residents of Adal-Malik, so after a long time, no one paid attention to the matter.
On the contrary, another incident in the city has attracted the attention of some civilians, starting with several new urban districts, where a number of residents have died in large numbers from time to time.
Even if this kind of thing is suppressed by the joint efforts of the White Bone Guards and the Corpse Collector Organization, some news has reached the ears of civilians.
Some wealthy residents began to find a way to get out of the city, but the poor or the old city residents who had lived in Adal-Malik for generations could not easily leave.
For a while, the atmosphere in the city slowly became tense, some people were trying to find a way to save their lives, and some people began to hoard food in various ways, planning to find a place to hide if something really happened.
Noriyuji also sensed that the atmosphere here was wrong, he noticed that the footsteps of pedestrians on the street had become quite hurried, and at the same time, he also felt that suddenly there seemed to be more people dying, and a large number of ordinary people were dying every day for no reason.
"I feel like something isn't quite right."
At the end of the day, Ryuji finally couldn't take it anymore, so he contacted Connor and invited him to a tavern that looked pretty good.
Connor was also happy to come over to Yanagi's invitation, and he ended his work early, bypassed the relatively large jurisdiction between the two, and came to the tavern that Yanoji had set, but he didn't expect that Yanoji would say such things as soon as he saw him.
"I also think that the atmosphere has been a little wrong in the last few days, and I feel like we are being used as pawns."
"Do you have any news?" Ryuji looked at Connor, he knew that although Connor came from a small family, he was still relatively well-informed.
Connor cautiously looked around, and then leaned into Ryuji's ear and said, "This is gossip, but I didn't say it, I heard that Mr. Adar is going to rebel." ”
"Adar? You're referring to Adal Ma......"
Before Ryuji finished speaking, he was covered by Connor, "Don't say his full name, he's almost level 15, and he already has a partial expression, if he says his full name, it will attract attention." ”
"Is there anything to say about that?" Ryuji was a little curious, he suddenly had a feeling that something was wrong, Mr. Adar, he should be referring to the city lord of Adal-Malik City, as a city lord, how could he have the idea of rebellion.
"You probably don't know something." Connor said in an attitude that I secretly told you, "Actually, this Mr. Adal is the defeated commander of that man, and that gentleman at the beginning relied on blocking the Phantom Plane of Life, where Mr. Adar was born, to block the great invasion of the Southern Swamp Plane by the Shadow Light Underworld, and Mr. Adar was forcibly captured here to suppress this great rift, and this suppression is thousands of years. ”
"But thousands of years have passed, why now?" Ryuji asked, thinking of the shadow city that he had killed, and the black lightning in the sky, could it be that this was Adar Malik's handiwork over the years?
"For thousands of years, even a pig can reach level 15, in order to prevent Mr. Adar from breaking through the boundary of level 15, this city was named Adar You know, just to distract Mr. Adar's divinity and prevent him from breaking through this last step."
The more Ryuji listened, the more solemn his face became, he had already guessed it, it could be seen that Adal Malik was ambitious and powerful, although he didn't know where he came from, but one thing was certain, if the ghost plane of life he was born in was not swallowed by the Ghost Light Underworld, then he was already a god now.
It's just that his luck is not good, and he was used as a shield by the Southern Swamp Plane, and Adar-Malik, who lost his plane, has been stuck at the level of level 14, and one card is thousands of years.
For thousands of years, he has been working hard to develop his power, and in front of him is the opportunity he has been waiting for, maybe he wants to take this opportunity to forcibly break through level 15, maybe he wants to divide this city from the southern swamp plane, maybe......
In short, he had a lot of ideas, but they were all god-level thoughts, and they were not something that mortals could understand.
"Then we ......"
"Aren't we being sent out by our families to take sides on both sides? If Mr. Adar succeeds, even if we are not from the dragon, we are on his side, and it will definitely be good for us, if he fails, then the family will only lose personal manpower, and it will not have much impact, which is very good for some foreign families.
Besides, you and I are not all inconspicuous in the family. ”
"So what can we do? Have you been waiting here? "Ryuji knows the cause and effect relationship in this, he is quite unhappy about not being able to choose his own fate like this, and he can't understand it now, which side is that Adal-Malik on, the Southern Plane Swamp? The Shadow Light Underworld is still the dark plane of life that originally belonged to him.
"What else can we do, even if you want to resist, do you have that strength? If you don't want to be involved, find a way to take a leave of absence to participate in the game, but what if you can escape to the game, and not end up in the city of Adal Malik. ”
Speaking of this, Connor let out a long sigh, "So I'm not going to resist, even if I take refuge in the Shadow Light Underworld, it doesn't matter, anyway, the sky is falling, and there are tall people on top of it, but I'm afraid that Mr. Adar is not that gentleman's opponent, and in the end the whole city will become his burial object." ”
"This is a capital-level city, can't it......"
"What do you think, if it weren't for the fear that the entire city would be destroyed, the Netherworld would take advantage of this to annex the southern swamp plane, this city might have been destroyed a long time ago, where would it drag on until now, but you still have to be careful, in this city, you don't know who is who, if you are not careful, you may block the way of others, so it is better to stay in your own territory during this time and don't come out."
