"Astroga ...... Astroga ...... I've been waiting for your debriefing, you poor worm......"

The demon hiding in the cobwebs, hoping that it would not really anger the summoner, stammered back, "Please...... Excuse me...... Forgive me for not being timely, Lord Diablo......"

The figure in the darkness changed again, and gradually disappeared into the shadows.

In fact, Astroga had never dared to raise her head to look up at her fearsome master.

Some demons would even be terrified by the majesty of Diablo, but Astroga was the number one person in the Burning Hell, and this time it finally had a clearer impression of its master, and it only took a few seconds, enough to make it tremble at the thought of the scene for years to come.

"What's going on on this little ball of mud that you call Sanctuary?" Diablo asked bluntly.

Its voice tore at every nerve of the spider, and with every syllable it uttered, Astroga felt like she had been abused a thousand times, ten thousand times.

"I urgently need to know the truth from my nephew now......"

This opportunity spider is asking for!

It immediately continued: "O bright and great Diablo, those angels will have nightmares when they hear your name. Your nephew has never faithfully carried out your orders, never made your desires a reality! I have offered advice to Venerable Lucien, but he will not listen to me! In fact, the Son of Mephisto was under too much pressure! He simply can't control the whole situation. I only know that Lu Dao has repeatedly acted arbitrarily......"

There was a sudden shrill laugh in the air, which made Astroga wish she could cover her ears. But even if he could do this, it would be impossible to stop the trembling all over his body.

"That poor boy has only been trying to convince these little worms on the mud ball to devote themselves to our great and just cause, right? Is my nephew really so arbitrary now? Diablo asked, confused.

"yes...... Now everyone is silent. I really ...... I really couldn't understand what this Venerable Lord Lucien was thinking. I don't know what kind of advice Lu Dao should give him, let alone others. His plans were completely inconclusive, and they led to the death of the best leaders of the captives, and then he abandoned me and the Gulag, and the Gulag's stupid man was now a puddle of mud, leaving me alone to face the mongrels born of angels and demons......"

"Are they that strong......" Diablo's tone sounded clearly very interested.

The killing of his brother Baal's favorite vassal only proves one thing, and that is that there are some very useful warriors that can be selected from among the human race.

"Lucien continues to stir up disputes! Of course. Astroga feared no one but his own master, and he expelled me from the chamber and sealed my sight. I can't see his confrontation with Udisian! The spider chattered back.

"Isn't this mortal one of ours?" Diablo was clearly confused.

"Absolutely not! In terms of the time of this sanctuary, he just destroyed another of our temples last night! But Lucien didn't seem to care, and I didn't see him show up until the end of the incident...... This is already the second puzzling absence! It is not a good thing that our mortal servants now have to rely on their own pitiful wisdom to decide how to act. When there are a lot of tricky things. But they'll just wait and wait! As she spoke, the spider felt like she was out of anger.

It waited for what Diablo would say, but all it waited for was silence. As the silence grew, Astroga became more and more agitated.

Until the last ......

"You must have something in mind, little bug?" Diablo asked.

"Yes, Lord Diablo...... If this guy is allowed to move freely...... Everything may exceed the expectations of Venerable Lucien. Astroga plucked up his courage and said.

Another silence ensued.

"Come, tell me, you little reptile hiding in the shadows. Tell me what you're thinking, my Astroga ......" Diablo's tone slowly softened.

The spider could barely contain his ecstasy. Start talking about your thoughts one by one right now.

………………

Mendeen became even more silent than usual, so silent that even Udyssian noticed his anomaly.

As the group trudged through the jungle, the farmer glanced at his brother and saw that he was now staring blankly ahead, as if he were afraid that if he turned his head, he would see something he shouldn't see.

It's a pity that there are too many troubles in Udyssien now, and he doesn't have more time to pay attention to his brother's abnormality. The unknown danger ahead of him was unnerving, and the sudden burst of passion from last night made him torn apart.

The girl had apparently opened her arms to him, and it was now very evident that he himself was increasingly eager to accept her. However, that would mean he was trampling on the memories of his best friend.

Udysien grunted in his throat, trying again to get the thorny question out of his mind. There were many dangers lurking around them, and the Triune Cult was even more distracting to him.

He constantly scanned ahead, trying to find anything that threatened them. He had already used his mental power to drive away several predators, forcing several poisonous snakes and a large python to wind in other directions. For Udysien, it was a task that had to be persistent, and the jungle was so dangerous that he did not dare to take it lightly.

As it gets dark, the trail becomes harder and harder to walk. Even for Udysien, walking had become a tricky problem, and he felt it would be better to get a complete reconnaissance of the newly arrived area.

Although he was quite confident in his strength, he eventually relied on the wisdom of the two Toragas as as well. This is a pair of cousins. Salang is the elder brother, five years older than his cousin Tomo, and they have done in-depth expeditions in the surrounding area. And for the vast majority of Toragas, it was simply unimaginable.

As hunters, they should be on par with Toraga as they were at Ceram by Achillios, and they are far superior to their peers in feeding this team.

"Look at the bushes in front of you with jagged leaves called Tyroko, Lord Udisian,"

Salang introduced him as he pointed to the reddish bush on their left: "Once it's cut through the skin." We're going to be poisonous......"

To prove his words, the cousin cut off a little low-hanging leaf with a spear.

Udysien saw the remains of a small furry creature lying under a tree, and a swarm of tiny crimson lizards were eating on what little of its body was left. It appears that these lizards are completely unaffected by the poison of Taylorko.

"These little ones are called Kataka." "They are very resistant to poison, but because they eat poison all year round, their skin is full of it. Kataka eats animals that have been poisoned by Tayloko, and because they ingest the toxin. Other predators that hunt these lizards will die of poison. ”

Udysien felt a little uneasy. Although the threat now discovered comes from poisonous plants, he decides to go the extra mile to guard against various unknown creatures. He believed he could resist the poisons of the jungle, but what about those who had not yet mastered the power of their talents?

"Tell everybody to be careful of this plant called Taylorko." He ordered a few people around him. This is not the first time Udyssien has issued such a warning, and he believes it will not be the last. It seems that every creature in the jungle has its hidden attributes, and they are often vicious.

Their target is still the relatively small city...... Hasher.

As they trekked through the journey, they remained vigilant. Be ready for the onslaught of the Trinialists.

Udyssien believed that the appearance of the three Assassins was not an isolated incident, in fact. He now had some suspicions that the Triune Cult was influencing Mendeon's every move, but if that was the case, his brother would probably find a way to let himself know the truth.

Of course......

"What are you thinking?" Suddenly, a gentle voice came from behind him.

Udysien immediately looked back, and he saw that Celentia had suddenly appeared beside him.

The son of Delmidis did not notice the concern in the girl's tone, but simply replied, "I must keep them safe, this jungle is full of dangers, much worse than our hometown." ”

"yes, Seram is a peaceful place by comparison," she frowned, "at least that way it used to be. ”

The words reawakened his guilt, and he muttered back, "Serencia...... For Cyrus, I ......"

"Say no more, Udisian. It wasn't your fault at all, you weren't even aware of your divine power at that time, let alone how to use it. Celenthia reassured him.

Her explanation shouldn't have been of much use to Udisian, but he nodded gratefully.

"I don't blame you for what happened to Achillios." The girl continued, her eyes glinting seductively: "Achillios is a good man, but he has always been uninhibited, and he chooses everything he does, so he will never blame you." ”

"Celentia......" Udysien called out hesitantly.

The girl's hand lay on him casually, gently stroked his back, and said in a softer voice, "Please don't worry too much about me, especially when it comes to Achillios. I did lose a good friend...... But not to treat him like a bad guy. ”

This sentence almost caused him to fall to the ground, and he stammered, "What are you talking about?" You two ......."

"Udisi, Achillios has always cared about me, but you know me......" Her eyes blinked and blinked, and her cheeks suddenly turned crimson, "I don't feel the same way about him. When I'm desperate for everything...... I think I'm just seeking comfort from him...... I...... I'm sorry for him......"

Udysien was stunned, when she didn't know what to say. He muttered back, "But you shouldn't now." ”

Udysien shrugged, wondering if what he said next made sense: "You brought happiness to Achillios. When he was killed, he thought the two of you would never be separated. That's pretty good, too. Right? ”

Her hand slowly slid down, gripping his palm tightly. Udyssien didn't push the girl away, one part of his mind felt that he had betrayed his friend again, while the other part rejoiced at what he had heard.

But before they could get any more intimate, Mendeen appeared out of nowhere, and their beautiful time was interrupted. Judging by Mendeen's expression, absolutely nothing good happened.

Something is wrong in the jungle. He whispered, "Don't you feel it?" ”

It was only then that Udysien returned to his surroundings. He wasn't sure what it was, but it was so close to him that the farmer immediately signaled Tomo to come to him.

"Are you familiar with the area? Is there anything I need to be particularly careful about? Udysien asked him.

The Toraga replied cautiously, "This area is now beyond the range of my cousin and I once hunted. Udisian, but I have a slight impression of this place. It is said that the elves of the jungle often haunt this area, but it is probably a story that my grandmother told us when we were children. ”

"Jungle elves?" Mendeen seemed very interested in this: "Why is it here? Is there anything special about it? ”

"This is a relic, Lord Mendenn." Like many of Udisian's believers in Toraga. Tomo didn't seem to like a direct conversation with his brother: "But all the marks have faded with the passage of time. They're just legends......"

"Anyway, we have to avoid them as much as possible." "They're far from that river, aren't they?" ”

"Well, that's right, ma'am." It was evident that Cerenthia was no less revered than Udisian, and Tomo and some other new believers had witnessed her powerful destructive power: "It takes about two or three hours to walk through this wooded area!" We had to waste that much time here! ”

Mendeen looked a little frustrated, and asked, "Is it that long?" ”

"Ah...... It probably won't be that long. The Toraga reluctantly admitted, "But it's definitely far enough!" ”

Unless they're looking for a place to compete with the Trinitarian Cult right now, apparently they're not interested. Udysien felt that the ruins were of little use. He gestured forward, "Let's move on." Hasher is our goal, not to be overdone. ”

But when they get back on the road. Udysien continued to sense something from the direction of the ruins.

He didn't know what it was, but he could sense that it was very, very old, and probably had a dark nature. What's even more strange is that he felt a 'rage' at the same time, and that feeling grew stronger as time went on.

Whatever it was, it had already attracted the attention of these people anyway.

Udysien tried to ignore the nuisances, but the feeling of rage had almost swallowed him, and with every breath he felt like he was about to explode. He finally pulled Serensia and Mendeen aside, and their expressions seemed very clear, and there was no surprise in them.

"We were really drawn to it." His brother nodded and said, "It has awakened from death......

"What do you mean, Mendeen?" Udysien asked, suddenly finding herself very tired of the mysterious power hidden in her brother's body: "Do you really know about these things?" ”

"I guess I know a little bit more than you do." Mendeen replied at once, sounding even more blunt than Udisian: "I haven't forgotten anything but myself!" ”

"No, you know now that you're hiding in the shadows all day, and then preaching vague things, and you look like crazy......" Udyssien replied.

The two brothers' eyes suddenly widened at the same time, amazed at how much resentment there was between them.

Udysien glanced around and suddenly saw that the people around him were all stunned, it seemed that they had not expected such a sharp quarrel between the brothers.

"It's trying to provoke us." Mendeen said to the crowd: "It passes through ......"

"Gather everyone to the river, it may be safer there," Udysien commanded to Lumas and the others, "Everyone must remain calm, and if anyone feels the urge to get angry, for whatever reason, the others must stop him, or report it to me!" ”

He wasn't sure if anyone else was affected, but he couldn't put everyone at risk.

But Selenthia looked very excited, and she raised her voice and asked, "Tomo! Is there any place to cross the river? I remember someone who seemed to mention the area ahead. ”

The Topaga frowned, "As far as I know, no, ma'am, but it may be ......"

"I'm pretty sure I remember someone saying it." She looked at Udisian, "I'm sure." We were talking about this just now, absolutely! ”

Udysien was glad to hear her suggestion, and a crossing should get them out of this predicament as soon as possible. The anger of the ancients still rose in his breast.

In fact, he was a little worried about whether he would be able to get out of this state after crossing the river.

But now Udysien had no choice, unless, he didn't think about his followers at all.

The farmer waved them on, while he stayed where he had been, gazing long in the direction of the ruins, wondering what kind of vicious inhabitants were hiding there.

Udysien concentrated all his energy trying to stop letting them manipulate their emotions.

Mendeen walked up to him and said, "Go catch up with those men, I'll deal with you, Udyssian." ”

"You take Selenthia with you, and then lead the others on." When the elder brother in turn asked him to say.

"There's no time to argue now......" Mendeen had just said half a sentence before he suddenly shut up.

Udisian's knowledge of the situation almost led to a new one. Perhaps the wisest option for them now was to leave the place at once, but he felt that if that mysterious force of anger had been used against their brother with all its might, the others would have been much less dangerous.

Apparently Mendeen had similar thoughts, so he immediately continued: "Then let's stay here together and work together against those guys." ”

They didn't say anything more, just stood side by side, staring into the depths of the forest.

But Udysien soon noticed a subtle change in the flood of anger, which was partly against Mendeun, and a small force tracking the team that had gone away, and he continued to concentrate on his exploration, and finally understood what he was doing.

"Serencia!" Udysien suddenly gasped and said, "It has inflicted all those evil powers on her!" ”

"What can you do......" Mendeen asked, confused. (To be continued......)
