Chapter 176: Shocking News
(Ask for recommendation tickets, monthly passes, tips!! )
Is it over?
It's over.
Ah, what a long night.
In the silent night sky of the Skader mountains, Alan lay on his back on the wide branches of the corpse tree, and let out a long sigh, since the battle of the circus, Alan has not rested for many days, has experienced several battles, is the body of a dragon, and is a little tired at the moment.
On the battlefield, a bald ghost with a white body and a butler who looked like he was in his forties floated in the air, looking at everything in the sky and the earth in dismay, and finally fixed his gaze on the demon boy for a long time. This ghost is none other than the 10,000-year-old ghost bound by Allen's soul contract, Sterling.
I never thought that this Sterling's body would be an inconspicuous-looking middle-aged man.
It seems that if it weren't for the second explosive personality that has existed in this guy's body for a long time, Sterling would not have been able to continue to rise in the abyss and become a generation of powerhouses.
Tonight, under the influence of the great mental shock, and under the plunder of Eren and the Corpse Demon Tree, the fission produced by Sterling, the evil and violent part of his body, turned into a secondary body, disappeared without a trace, leaving behind a resourceful, weak body, floating in the air without saying a word.
As the Lord of Souls, Alan felt three things.
The first thing was anger, and in Sterling's heart, he still couldn't understand why Victor gave up, or even killed himself.
The second thing is hatred, after this battle, Sterling and Victor formed an indissoluble enmity, silently swearing that he must kill Victor.
The third thing is that the kind-hearted Sterling realizes that he has done too many crazy things in the past 10,000 years of his existence. And this is too far from Stirling's nature of keeping to himself and loving life. If he could choose again, Sterling would not have joined Victor's faction.
Alan is happy to see this situation, and Victor has one more strong enemy since then. Perhaps Sterling will eventually find out what tonight is like, but for now Alan will not tell him. What Alan needs is a sterling who keeps his anger alive.
This time. Jock came to the corpse demon tree, tested it, and found that the big tree did not deal with him, so he jumped on the big tree, came to Allen's side, and said with a smile: "Demon boy, tell me, what happened just now." "For the so-called death token, and the three corpse demon powerhouses who suddenly appeared. Mr. Clown still doesn't understand what is going on.
"It was an accident and a coincidence, to put it simply, someone teleported the 10,000-year-old ghost here to help him get out of trouble, and the ghost recognized the two of us on the battlefield and brought us here. But the place where this guy fled was where I used to train my troops. The big tree you see, and the three strong men. It's all my men. Alan said.
"I see." Hearing this, Jock the Clown grinned and performed two side-kick acrobatics, and said, "What is the situation now?" ”
Alan said: "This 10,000-year-old ghost has been divided, there are two personalities and two bodies, and the more orderly soul is this one. I surrendered. ”
"Oh? Is it! Jock was overjoyed, "So the war is over?" ”
"Yes, very briefly!" Alan let out a long sigh of relief, "Still, the evil body that escaped. After all, it's a hidden danger, and I can't let him do the slaughter of the city again. ”
"Huh......" Jock laughed, "that's your business, it's none of my business, you just have to tell me where Edith is." ”
"I know." Alan rolled over, "Let's leave too, there's no need to stay here." ”
And said: "There will be great turmoil in the Golden City these days, and I will send a team with you to search for the whereabouts of Edith, and if there is a need for battle, I will appear." ”
"It's enough to have your words." Jock Road.
After a few hours of rest.
Jock asked, "What's next for you?" ”
"Me?" Alan looked at the starry sky and thought for a moment, "I'm not sure yet, now let's go back to the Golden City first." ”
Eren tossed an ancient coin, and the mechanical golem came into view. Due to the rapid progress of the plunder tonight, Eren did not let the mechanical golem and the Red Flame Demon enter the game, and now the golem looks very bright.
The corpse demon tree turned into a staff, the space opened, and the next moment, Alan and the two came to the broken temple. Without stopping, the next moment, Alan had already passed through the door of space and entered the eastern district of the Golden City.
"What a magical teleportation technique!" The curious Jock was pulled out of the damaged temple space by Allen, and found that he and Alan were in a remote alley in the eastern part of the city, and immediately asked, "That place just now is a special space, isn't it?" ”
Alan didn't deny it and nodded.
"It's amazing." Jock said, "You guy is like a magician in my circus, hahaha, how about joining us." Ah, hee-hee, you kid I like it, next time you'll be my friend. ”
Hearing this, Allen's heart moved, it was really not easy to get the friendship of the Bloody Jock group. Walking out of the middle of nowhere, it was already dark. Alan and Jock split up after an amazing breakfast. Alan returns to his original attire and returns to the south of the city, while Jock goes alone to find his crew.
At this moment, Allen's manor is not very lively, only some vague people, carefully identified, are all his own subordinates, so Alan walked in with peace of mind.
Seeing Allen appear, everyone's eyes showed an incredible look, and Mr. Hunter, the butler, exclaimed continuously: "Mr. Allen, you are fine, great, this is really good news!" ”
Last night, the dwarf Odro sent news that Alan had disappeared in the slum war, and asked Hunter to pay attention to the manor, and there may be great changes in the Golden City in the near future, and soon, the person sent by the Avalo butler of the Count of Morel also confirmed the matter. Mrs. Winley made a decree to Hunter that she would report back as soon as there was news of Alan.
After hearing many words from Hunter's housekeeper, Alan realized that during the period of time when he disappeared, his descendants were in a panic, and everyone was doing one thing, which was to find his whereabouts.
"Also, there's a shocking piece of news that you might need to know about, Mr. Allen."
"Oh?" Alan was slightly stunned, "Please speak." ”
"Now there are rumors in the Golden City that a demon boy is leading the ghost slaughter. Right now, the City Lord's Mansion is ordering the search for the demon boy, so the old servant reminds the gentleman to be careful. Hunter vaguely remembered that Eren had a demon mask, but he did not associate Eren with the person he was talking to, purely to remind his master to be careful.
Just hearing this, Allen's face suddenly changed.
How did things go this way?
Although there are not many people who know about the matter of "the demon boy is Alan", Odro and Joey, who went to the slums with him last night, know about it, and in addition, Odro was with Mr. Cayton of Berkeley House last night.
Although he disappeared for no reason, Brother Odro always knows something. As long as he tells Kaiton the news that he is a demon boy, then Kaiton will definitely mediate for himself, and no matter how he thinks, it is impossible to let the news of the wanted "demon boy" be released.
This is really earth-shaking news!
Allen's face was bloodless, something must have happened in between!
"What happened overnight?" Alan asked.
Seeing Allen's different expression, Hunter said seriously: "Last night, there was a great change in the slums, and the ghost disappeared in the encirclement and suppression of adventurers, and then the city lord's mansion ordered martial law in the whole city, and sent a large number of men and horses to continue to hunt down the ghost of death. ”
"The whole city is on alert right now?" Alan Dao.
"Yes sir?"
Oh? Hearing this, Alan breathed a sigh of relief, his manor was not being monitored under the condition that the whole city was on alert, which proved one thing, that is, the City Lord's Mansion did not connect himself with the "Demon Boy" at the moment.
Maybe things aren't as bad as you think. Alan was right, at this time, Alan was not the only one who was shocked by this incident, but also Cayton, Odro and others who were searching for the whereabouts of the ghost outside the city were also shocked when they heard about it, and ordered the people around them to find Alan as soon as possible.
and divided the people, on the one hand, using the resources in his hands to clear the suspicion for Allen, and on the other hand, continuing to search for Allen.
Now, some Berkeley men are waiting at Allen's South City Manor.
"I already know about this, and I will also pay attention to the fact that the demon boy is wanted. Now, there's something you need to do. Alan said.
"Sir, please."
"From now on, block any news from me and don't tell anyone that I showed up."
"Huh?" Hunter was puzzled, "Including Lady Wen Li?" ”
When Alan heard this, he was silent for a moment. The reason why Eren chose to disappear was mainly to investigate the fact that the demon boy was wanted and to see who was responsible, and Eren believed that if there was not enough evidence in this matter, the City Lord's Mansion would not rashly issue a wanted warrant. So, who's in charge of this? Alan must find out this, otherwise it will be difficult to make the next move.
"As for Mrs. Wen Li, you can reveal it from the side." Alan gave instructions.
"Okay, I see."
……
At the same time, in the Golden City, a mysterious search team.
"I found that there is also a teleportation circle set up privately."
"There is evidence that this circle was built by a dwarf, and that it is related to a warlock in the south of the city......"
"This matter must be reported to the City Lord's Mansion immediately, and these two people must be found quickly!"
It turns out that this is a team searching for the teleportation circle, and their mission is to find the people behind the help of the 10,000-year-old ghost out of the Golden City tonight.
At this time, Alan didn't realize that a conspiracy against himself or against the "demon boy" was going on.
It was dawn, and more than a dozen hours passed.
A storm looms over the Golden City, and Raspar is in danger. (To be continued.) )
