Chapter 794: Black Snake (1600 Plus)
Late at night. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The bright moonlight faintly rippled with a purple halo, covering the earth with a layer of enchanting color.
The moon in this world is obviously different from Wu Ming's previous life, and even any world he has traversed.
And in many depraved religions and evil sacrifices, the demonic purple moon is also an indispensable part of the ritual.
It is only in the purple moonlight that the demons and evil gods can feel the fullest pleasure, and the sorrow of the living sacrifices is enough to make them bestow a high level of bounty.
In the Western Continent, studying how to sacrifice under the purple moon has always been an important discipline, and of course it is also an extremely high-end research, and it is even more taboo for beginners, because if you are not careful, you will be tempted by evil gods.
It's just that this kind of statement, when heard by the Orientals, will definitely scoff at it.
Because among their eight supreme gods, the Moon Lord God is impressively listed!
Even in the Western world, there are several goddesses whose priesthood is related to the moon, but they are not clearly biased towards the camp of evil.
But in any case, under the light of the full moon, all kinds of sacrifices and summoning circles are more likely to succeed, but it is also the law of the whole world.
At this time, it was in the port of Evans, in the courtyard of a huge aristocratic mansion.
In the study, a bright magical flame shines through, causing the shadows of the bookcases and decorations to reflect on the walls, revealing many strange shapes.
"Sir, this is our income account for this month!"
The old butler held a lot of account books and respectfully placed them on the table: "And what happened in the port recently, according to your request, everything that is interesting, or involves more than five hundred gold shields, is here......"
"Hmm!"
The nobleman to whom this mansion belonged was a baron, and the land was sealed in the golden oak collar, so it was called the golden oak collar baron.
As a small aristocracy, the local income cannot meet the decent life, and it has become an extremely normal phenomenon to come out to serve the big nobles.
The same is true of the Baron of the Golden Oak, who now serves the Earl of Evans, the master of the whole port, and, because he is also a nobleman, has the position of deputy chief of the guard, which is very good.
It's just that the old butler doesn't know that the reason why this baron has been able to make his fortune here is not only because of the benefits brought by the vice-captain.
The Golden Oak Baron is less than fifty years old, and the Westerners of this world, especially the aristocracy, look a little older if they don't wear makeup.
At this time, he was expressionless and flipped through the account books, and the whole study was extremely quiet, except for the occasional rustling sound.
The housekeeper listened, but his heart was secretly nervous.
I don't know why, as an old butler who has followed the Golden Oak Collar family for several generations, and has been serving the previous baron since birth, I always feel that my lord has changed since he came to Port Evans.
Not only does the temper become very moody, but people are also a little mysterious.
If it weren't for him, an old man who had been following the baron for a long time, knowing that several hidden features on the other party's body had not changed, he would almost think that this baron was an impostor.
And even so, the baron, who has become more and more mean and irritable, is quite difficult to serve.
"Hmm...... Except for the fish account three days ago, which was a little expensive, the rest is fine......"
After a long time, the Baron finally stopped looking through the books.
The old butler sighed in his heart, but he said a word of silence for the person in charge of buying the sea fish.
"Huh?"
After reading the accounts, the baron picked up the information book, and the first page was the changes in the mercenary guild and the thief's guild, as well as the news of several churches.
I don't know which one he saw, his complexion suddenly changed, and at this moment, the old butler clearly saw that the baron's lips were pursed, and then his face drooped, and he became even more happy and angry.
The old butler, who was familiar with the baron's temper, knew that this was a manifestation of the baron's extreme mood swings, and he didn't dare to gasp for fear of harming the pond fish.
"Very good, you go out!"
The expected storm did not come, and the butler immediately hurriedly withdrew, and closed the door with him.
"I didn't even deal with the person who bought the sea fish, what kind of news can make the master ...... like this?"
The old butler worriedly put his hands behind his back and walked out into the garden, frowning deeply.
It seemed to be his delusion, and the purple moon hanging in the sky at this time seemed to become more mysterious and demonic.
……
"Mercenary guild, there is a bounty, and the employer needs information that a strange-shaped, Ouroboros ring!"
If the old butler had remained in his study for now, he could have seen the golden oak-collared baron's face sink into water, marking a message with heavy fingernails.
"Ouroboros?!"
The Golden Oak Collar Baron muttered the name, and a hint of mystery appeared on his face: "It seems that the members who went to the East have been exposed...... I was even tracked down all the way here by the other party, what a damn guy, a group of pigs and beasts, not only delayed the organization's plan, but also provoked people to me......"
He picked up the information, went to the edge of the study, next to a rosewood bookcase, and pressed a certain bracket.
With a dull sound, the bookcase, which had seemed to be with the wall, moved away, revealing a downward passage.
On the inside of the walls, there is even a magic circle that radiates light, with the effect of concealment and isolation.
The Golden Oak Baron carried a magic lamp and stepped straight into the darkness.
The channel went all the way down, not very long, and it didn't take long to reach the bottom.
It's a small basement, and the magic lamp flickers brightly, clearly reflecting a black snake relief with its own tail on the wall in the center!
"Praise be to you, Endless Ouroboros!"
When the golden oak-collar baron saw the relief, he knelt down reverently and prayed like a cultist: "You are the beginning of everything, but also the end of everything, the cycle of rebirth......"
Accompanied by the sound of a cult chant, the Ouroboros relief on the wall suddenly lit up, emitting a blood-red light!
Obviously, this is not only a greeting, but also a mantra.
And the Ouroboros relief on the wall is not as simple as a symbol.
Hiss......
In the scarlet light, a light curtain suddenly appeared, it was a gloomy swamp, and one of the black-robed people looked up, under the endless darkness, only a pair of vertical pupils looked very dazzling.
"What's going on? Didn't I tell you that there is no emergency, and you can't use this to contact me? ”
The black-robed man's voice was hoarse: "In the port of Evans, there is a special mage tower to monitor, although this communication channel has been encrypted by my master, and there is no danger of failure, but if you leak it yourself, then there is no way, presumably I don't need to remind you, you also know how difficult those mages are, right?" ”
"Of course I know this, Your Excellency Black Snake!"
The Baron of the Golden Oak Salute respectfully, with an extremely reverent attitude: "Although we have just been contacted, there is a new situation in the port of Evans...... Inside the mercenary guild, there is a blatant bounty for information related to the Ouroboros Ring! ”
"Damn it!"
The Golden Oak Collar Baron saw very clearly that His Excellency the Black Snake also lost his temper slightly for a moment.
"Ouroboros? To get it, only the senior members of our organization have to get it, right? ”
The black snake hissed and said, "Even though I don't know how many snake levels it is, the only ones who are currently lost are those members who went to the east...... It seems that not only did the plan over there completely fail, but all the manpower was also wiped out, otherwise even if one of them was alive, they would not have let the ring become a trophy! ”
"And now, what should I do here?"
A cold sweat appeared on the forehead of the Golden Oak Collar Baron.
In fact, no matter how disdainful he was of those dead people, he knew their strength well.
High-level professionals abound, and none of them are below their own baron!
But after being sent to the East, no matter which one of them, disappeared so quietly, and not even a big wave was set off.
"You don't have to do it, just gather good information!"
The Black Snake immediately made a decision: "If it is really someone sent by the Eastern Continent, you can't be their opponent at all!" This matter will be personally responsible for the burial of the organization! ”
"Burner?!"
When the golden oak leader heard this, he suddenly felt a thrill.
He knew the power of these burials, who, as their name suggested, were responsible for burying people or things that were harmful to the organization.
Basically, every time you make a move, it means that a strong person or a strong organization is completely erased from this world.
Now that Lord Black Snake is actually sending a bury person to come, it is enough to see that he attaches great importance to this matter!
"Your Excellency!"
It's just that a look of embarrassment immediately appeared on the face of the golden oak collar: "I only know that this is a mission issued by the Oriental people to the mercenary guild, and I didn't leave any contact information...... Moreover, during this time, there was a marked increase in the number of Orientals in the port, and I suspect that the empire has discovered something, and has begun to intensify its investigation......"
"Rubbish!"
Black Snake unceremoniously commented: "Are you scared? Or has it shaken its devotion to our Lord? ”
Although it was only a bland question, the cold sweat on the forehead of the golden oak-collared baron immediately flowed.
For this group, anyone who knows about the existence of Ouroboros, but has no faith, represents danger and anxiety.
When necessary, the burial will be dispatched.
Baron Golden Oak Leader took refuge in this organization in the first place, and only then did he climb to his current position, and now is the time to spare his life, so he naturally does not want to be buried like this.
"My loyalty to my lord has never wavered!"
The Baron of the Golden Oak Collar immediately said: "Even if I have to pay with my life for this, I am willing!" Rest assured, I will find out the man's traces within a day! ”
"Very well, don't forget your promise, otherwise I don't mind letting the buries, bury one more person......"
The black snake laughed wildly, and the figure gradually dissipated.
