Chapter 223: Gazing into the Abyss Branch
Volume 1, Chapter 223, Gazing into the Abyss Branch
Piercing music fills every corner of the dimly lit bar. Thieves, killers, and mercenaries who do anything for money are here to enjoy drinks and women. They get together to brag to each other and exaggerate their achievements in order to attract potential employers hiding here.
Colored lights flickered, and the untied girls swayed their waists on the stage, throwing the clothes off one by one to the whistling crowd below. Duncan, who had come up from the underground stronghold, walked up to the bar and sat down, and after pushing away a dancer who had leaned up to talk to him, he said to the waiter at the bar, "Give me a beer." ”
The waiter quickly brought the beer, and Duncan said, "Let your boss come and see me, I have a business to ask him for help." ”
"Yes, Mr. Duncan." The waiter whispered in response, then turned and walked backstage.
After a while, a man followed the waiter, and the scar on his face that opened from the corner of his mouth to the base of his ear was particularly glaring. The man took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet, walked up to Duncan and poured him a glass of red wine, and said, "This is the 'Elven Rhyme' that has recently been sought after by Salo Yang celebrities, and if you taste it, you will always remember its taste." It costs ten gold pounds a bottle to sell directly from the winery that sells it, but the taste is definitely worth its price.
This cup I treat and praise the great God. ”
Duncan also whispered, "Praise be to the great God." ”
After Duncan took a sip of the Elven Rhyme and showed an expression of enjoyment, the scar man whispered to Duncan, "Mr. Duncan...... Do you have a business that you can ask me for? ”
Duncan pressed the brim of his felt hat to see that no one was paying attention around him, and then said to Scar Man, "You should know Sir Charles." ”
Hearing the name, the scar man paused for a moment and asked instead, "Charles...... He was a world-renowned explorer. Are you going to get him in trouble? I advise you not to attack his idea, for any accident with such a public figure would cause very much trouble. Moreover, Sir Charles came to Saloyan this time to explore the Desert of Death, and he had the support of the Frominck Empire behind him.
If something happens to him, he will definitely let the 'cockroaches' up. ”
Duncan said, "I'm not looking for you to hurt Charles. In fact, Charles may be an acquaintance of mine, and I would like to find out who he is.
I need a professional tracker to follow Charles for me, and then I also want information about Charles from birth to the present. I know you have someone here who can take on this kind of task, and I don't limit the time of the mission. This should be an easy task......
Hearing Duncan's description of the mission, Scarman's expression relaxed. It's not hard to just track and collect information. As for what Duncan will do after getting Charles's whereabouts, habits and information, that's none of his business. Although he has joined the Gazing Abyss Church, believing in the Dreadlord does not mean that he will have to give his life.
"No problem...... I'll leave it to me, and I know who's right for both tasks. The scar man agreed, then turned to the waiter and said, "Give this gentleman another beer, count it as my ......."
Charles joined the Gazing Abyss Church when he was younger, not by his real name. When he attended church meetings, he also stood in an inconspicuous place, he had no friends and did not compete for power, but he prayed to the Dreaddemon King very hard to obtain divine power and study divine arts.
Until the time he decided to rescue Jessica and betray the Gazing Abyss Church, he was a very non-existent cultist. He was able to participate in the large-scale summoning ceremony presided over by the church's top brass, and he also bribed a member of the church with money.
Then staring into the abyss creates a slaughter, and also leads himself to destruction.
After the Supreme Holy See exterminated the Gazing Abyss Church that had just gained a foothold on the mainland, that informant traitor became the pain of the Gazing Abyss Church for more than ten years.
This time gazing into the abyss to return to the Continent of Order, punishing this traitor is one of the things that must be done.
But when the survivors who stared into the abyss fled the Order Continent under the pursuit of the Holy See, they had no chance to find out who was a traitor. Now more than ten years have passed, and I want to re-check ...... It's very difficult.
The first is to find those surviving cultists who have not left the Continent of Order, and the traitors must be among them.
Sir Charles is now a public figure, and his appearance is recognizable by the original survivors. It's just that the name doesn't match, and the appearance is also a little off. After all, there are many people in the world who look like them, and in order not to be mistaken, revealing that the staring abyss has returned to Salo Young, Duncan decided not to contact Charles directly, but to find a third party to conduct a preliminary investigation.
After a beer, Duncan returns to the underground stronghold through the secret door of the bar, which is also the church of the Abyssal Saloyan Chapter.
Above the altar is the idol of the Dreadlord Eggels, a crimson abyssal python. Unlike the God of Light of the Holy See, the God of the Abyssal Church has an accurate image and a name...... In the excavation of ancient ruins, you can also find the deeds of this demon king.
These are all places where the Abyssal Cultists feel superior to the Holy See of the Most Good.
Below the statue stood two nightmares with hellfire burning on their bodies. These are true high-level creatures from Hell, and acquiring them has earned Duncan a commendation from the General Society, as well as more support from the General Assembly for the Salo Young Chapter. The president asked Duncan to make the search for nightmare manufacturing technology the most important task of the Salo Young chapter.
Do whatever it takes!
Standing in front of Nightmares, a high-level hell creature who was born as a tenth order, Duncan couldn't help but be shocked by their beauty and divine steed every time he saw them.
After joining the Abyss, both Nightmares are very cooperative, and they also enjoy the infernal chaos of the environment, and are keen to erupt a little flame to attract the worship of the Abyssal Cultists. Judging from the growth process, the two nightmares are still newborn juveniles, far less cunning and spicy than the old guys in hell, and are in a stage where they are easy to control.
But no matter how Duncan tried to side-knock him, when it came to the Maker, the two Nightmares immediately fell silent. It was a prohibition engraved on their souls, not even hinting.
It seems that the only way to do it is to get their master, Father Titus.
But Speaker Peters' plan was to wait for Father Titus himself to come to the door. Duncan knew that Peters must have peeked into the nightmare's creation method, and he also knew that the cooperation between the Gazing Abyss Church and the Marcellus Council was a mutual use, and Speaker Peters would never share it with him after he got the nightmare creation method.
Since there will always be helpers, we should take the initiative and avoid the council's own investigation.
