267. I Must Take Revenge!
"Tell me, who the hell are you?" The blue light in Zhuge Yun's hand illuminated the old man's face and said lightly.
"Well, before I say that, I only have a small request, can you give me a little bit of your spiritual power...... If you look at me like this, I may not be able to talk to you for a long time in this state. β
Zhuge Yun waved his hand, and a trace of spiritual power immediately entered the body.
He knew that the other party's body and energy were locked in by the black evil qi, and although it was not clear what the hidden power behind it was and where it came from, it did take a lot of energy to talk in this state.
Therefore, he doesn't mind giving him a little bit, anyway, this bit of energy is just a drop in the bucket for him, even if the other party gets it, it won't make a big difference, let alone let him get out of trouble immediately.
After gaining a trace of spiritual power, the old man's eyelids finally moved slightly, and the complexion on his body also showed a hint of turning ruddy.
Zhuge Yun was a little surprised, this person's absorption of spiritual power was really not covered, it was indeed very fast. But the divine sense he had just enhanced was still unable to detect the level of the other party's spiritual power.
Although the half of his body was as black and ethereal as the starry sky from the right half of his shoulder, occupied by the violently burning black aura, he could still control it from the neck up.
His eyes slowly opened a slit, and finally opened, and the deep black pupils were extremely dim.
Probably because he had just woken up from a deep sleep, his facial muscles were so small that they could barely be seen.
The two eyes looked at the young man in front of him, knowing that this was the person he had just spoken to, and then slowly turned to look at Avanna and 17 next to him, and his bloodless lips moved.
"Huh, Bloodline?" The voice was a little dull and slightly strange, and it should have been a long time since I opened my mouth.
He wasn't surprised to see the Bloodborne in this place, as if he were used to them.
"Let's talk about it." Zhuge Yun was a little impatient.
"Young man, whoever you are, I have to thank you, otherwise I don't know if I will be locked up for thousands of years. Don't be surprised by what you have to say! β
Zhuge Yun's eyes were as calm as an ancient well, he sneered, thought in his heart, and listened to him first.
The old man paused and said, "No matter what era it is now, or what changes have taken place above, you know, there are some sects, or myths and legends in human history, right?" β
"Huh? Legend...... What do you mean? Zhuge Yun's brows furrowed slightly, motioning for him to continue.
"I have had many names in history that have been given to me by people who revere me as a god, such as the Jews who call me Yahweh; The Greeks called me Poseidon; The Oriental people call me Emperor Yan; The Egyptians called me Thoth and even depicted me in the image of a bird-headed human ......"
The old man kept staring at Zhuge Yun's reaction when he said these words, and there were pauses between his words, and his expression was inexplicably serious.
"Well, wait, so you have a lot of avatars?" Zhuge Yun asked lightly.
"No, not incarnations, those are the names given to me by secular people, and what I just said are the names I have used at different times and places - my actual identity is a ...... The Elder is also an agent sent to the earthly world. β
The old man's words were shocking, and if they were true, they would be fantastical.
How old did he really live?
"Elder? What kind of elder are you? β¦β¦ Could it be the elder of the Ispartine organization? β
Avenna interjected and asked, she was also a little curious about this kind of thing, and she didn't think it was anything strange.
Just like the Blood Clan, it can almost be said that she is immortal, although she is not very clear about the religions and legends in human history, but with her nearly 100 years of age, these things seem to be taken for granted and understood.
"You know 'Ispartine'?" The old man's tone was a little surprised.
The old man squinted his eyes and looked at her, then turned his head to look at Zhuge Yun, but saw that he lowered his head with a blank expression, and there seemed to be a hesitant expression on his face, and he couldn't guess what he was thinking.
This young man has great strength, but he does not know the crucial question of friend or foe. This is a difficult question to judge, and it is dangerous to continue to talk about it if you don't know where he stands.
No one answered his simple question, but both Avenna and the old man looked at Zhuge Yun, as if waiting for him to answer.
When the old man saw his expression, his heart suddenly froze, and he immediately stopped, and it was difficult to continue.
After a while, Zhuge Yun suddenly raised his head, looked at him and asked, "If my guess is correct, you shouldn't be a human, right?" β
The old man's heart was shocked, and the young man seemed to be not simple, and replied, "That's right, it seems that you know a lot?" The history of our people...... It's much longer than a human! β
"I see, then, are you from Jidu or from Atlanteans?" Zhuge Yun asked slowly in a calm tone.
"Hmmβyou seem to know!" The old man nodded, seeing that he did not continue to speak.
"Forget it, the answer to this question has nothing to do with me, I just want to know who you are holding here. Also, what's going on with all this black energy in your body? β
"If I told you, could you please tell me one thing as well?"
"Hehβit's not for you to interrogate me now......" Zhuge Yun replied indifferently.
"Really? Well, there are some things I advise you not to know as well! I won't tell you a word until I know your intentions and tell whether you're friend or foe! β
A shallow smile drew into the corner of the old man's mouth, as if to see how the young man answered.
"Smack!"
An arc of lightning flashed, and the blue spiritual power exploded on his shoulder, and those black powers immediately shrank a lot.
"Listen, as long as I am willing, with my ability, I can completely lift the confinement of this black power in you. And your little bit of Taoism is nothing to me. β
Zhuge Yun's chin was raised, he looked at him with a cold gaze, and said lightly: "So, if you answer my question honestly, maybe I can get you out of trouble quickly and get rid of the shackles of this shackle, but if you still don't tell the truth and play any tricks, I will immediately abolish you, as simple as crushing an ant." β
As soon as his words fell, a trace of coldness immediately flashed in his eyes, and a cold murderous intent burst out.
"Shhhh
The old man's face was originally sallow, but it turned pale in an instant, and he could hear that the young man's tone contained murderous intent, and his expression was by no means child's play, and he would really do it. And the conditions he offered are also quite tempting, if he can really get rid of the cage of this black evil body, it is also his dream, and he will have the opportunity to take revenge on his enemies!
"Good! Then it's a word, I'll believe you! β
Zhuge Yun smiled slightly, as if he had changed into a different person.
He just used a little trick to make the other party have a sense of fear in his heart.
Threatening the other party to make him submit has a double meaning: in fact, he has already made up his mind in his heart, no matter who this old man is, it has nothing to do with him, all he cares about is the black power he is carrying-that huge energy is what he wants to get urgently.
"Say, I'll wait." An indifferent voice came.
"Well, where do you start...... As I said before, I am an elder, and I am one of the 'Seven Elders of Jidu'. The old man's eyelids drooped, and he no longer looked at the young man's reaction.
"The reason why I am in this field is only because I have been gullible enough to believe in a man who has taken my place, and may still be playing my part......" He let out a long sigh and shook his head.
"Who is it? Why did he do it? β
"His name is Cook, and for your age, it's impossible to know his ......"
Zhuge Yun was shocked, his expression changed instantly, and he muttered, "Well, Cook? β¦β¦ The man you're talking about is Stanley Cook? β
"What!? You even know him? This time it was the old man's turn to be surprised, his eyes widened, and his heart was shocked.
The past that has been sealed for many years has surfaced in Zhuge Yun's mind at this moment.
He remembered the huge cruise ship in the sunset many years ago, the ceremonial room sealed with the remains of an unknown person, the ceremonial room filled with countless great people, the whispered introductory words and the flickering candlelight, the red velvet ribbon blindfolded by the oath-taker, and an old man sitting on a throne carved with countless mysterious symbols on the altar, presiding over a solemn initiation ceremony for him.
"Well, go on, I want to know the whole story." Zhuge Yun responded coldly, at this moment, his thoughts had been completely pulled back.
"Okay, then I'll move on." The old man nodded.
"That guy named Cook, also a Counter, was once another agent we had stationed in the secular world on the surface, and he was tasked with carrying out some of our vast plans."
"Well, that part doesn't matter anymore...... No, it's not unimportant, you can tell me this later, but tell me about you being stuck here with him, I don't have much time. β
"That bastard guy is a conspirator, a careerist, and has done a lot of ...... under the banner of our plan Forget it, there are too many of these things, and they are too long to talk about in a day. In short, he secretly founded another organization of his own, called the 'Black Shine Pantheon'. β
The old man's expression was a little resentful, and he said dejectedly.
"Hmm, the Black Shine Pantheon, I see......"
Zhuge Yun was silent after saying this, he didn't expect the truth of the matter to be like this. But he didn't have time to think about it now, so he stretched out his hand to the old man and motioned for him to continue.
"That guy sent a message one day that he had discovered the whereabouts of the ancient god 'Igos' and asked us 'Seven Elders of Jidu' to send someone to the worldly world of mankind. At that time, it was the reincarnation of my duty, so I left the ancient city of the guards and came here to find him. β
"I didn't expect you to fall in his way like this?" Zhuge Yun asked lightly.
At this time, he finally figured out what kind of power was behind the black power that bound the old man.
"Yes, he borrowed a forbidden method that should not be used and imprisoned me in this way! This bastard, I'm going to get revenge on him! β
When the old man said this, he couldn't help but tremble!
