Chapter 147: The Man in the Bureau
"This is an initiation ceremony book......
Han Dong spent a full hour perusing the entire content of the book.
Immediately, I also understood what the old man Vogt meant when he said "I failed" before he died.
The spiralization of the elderly is largely due to the spiralization of the body caused by the study of the "Initiation Ritual Book".
Due to lack of willpower, he finally failed to meet the requirements of the ritual book.
As a result, it undergoes an unstoppable deep spiral of self until the physical body completely turns into a whirlpool, absorbing itself and dissipating it between Sumeru, and it will not be able to transcend life forever.
According to the description of the initiation ceremony, as long as the requirements of the ritual can be achieved, the individual can initially grasp the power of the "whirlpool", and at the same time, he will also become a reserve member of the whirlpool cult.
And a sentence on the last page of the book was highlighted by Han Dong.
[Preparers who meet the standards can go to the Order through the whirlpool of the City of London]
Han Dong sat at the desk, crossed his hands against his chin, and said with a gloomy face:
"I still remember when I first came to the city of London, I learned from the miners that the villages outside the city were all built with black churches as the main building, and the Order as the core.
These Night Orders only accept death row prisoners as their development members.
Is there a connection with the [Vortex God Cult]? If so, it's going to involve the top executives of the City of London, right?
Moreover, in the dark forest outside the city, there are many other demons belonging to other old kings, trying to infiltrate the city of London.
The main purpose of the infiltration should be the "Vortex Incident".
In other words, the old king had sensed that something was wrong with the city of London and deliberately sent someone over. ”
Han Dong glanced at the bathroom and continued to think:
"Wait...... Did Toad Zu let me stay in [Nkaiyi] for three months when he knew that I was going to London City, did he do it on purpose?
I deliberately waited until the "Vortex Incident" fermented to a certain extent before letting me come.
Mary Tiss was by my side the whole time. As a descendant of Toad Zu's blood, I want to come to Toad Zu to be an existence that can control the illusion realm, and he can also directly rely on Mary, so he probably knows the situation here.
The yellow-robed person I hadn't seen for a long time, and the yellow-robed person who had also rushed over from the Holy City, also specially asked me to investigate this matter deeply.
The "Vortex Incident" can attract the attention of many old kings, and it must be related to the fate of the participants who appeared in the city of London...... According to current sources, even though the participants are [dead], they may still be influencing the area.
I seem to have been caught up in a multi-stakeholder matter.
No wonder, the yellow robe would take the initiative and ask me to go deeper no matter what...... Indeed, the dangers lurking in the maelstrom are much higher than I expected. ”
Han Dong showed a helpless smile and couldn't help but shake his head.
"From the current point of view, the strength of the [Book Seller] I came into contact with alone must be at the level of atavism.
And in the "Vortex God Cult", there may be more existences similar to book sellers, or even stronger...... The things involved behind it may rise to the level of a king. ”
Just when Han Dong's nerves were slightly shaken.
There was a tingling sensation on the back of his right hand, and the yellow mark was flickering slightly.
"Ouch, I see...... I didn't say I was going to give up the investigation. ”
As soon as Han Dong said this, the yellow seal also quickly dissipated.
Lean back on the recliner and hold the back of your head with your hands to relax as much as possible......
"What's next?
Will you borrow from the forces in the city of London, or will you continue to explore on your own?
Can London agents be trusted? Why is there still not much progress in the city of London being investigated by a mythical entity...... It's all a problem.
If I'm not careful, I'll get into a quagmire.
Even with the help of the yellow robe, guaranteeing that I would not die would cut off all clues, and he would inevitably be disappointed, and even be withdrawn as an emissary.
You can't be in a hurry, and you can't be in a hurry about this kind of uncertain thing.
Let's wait...... Wait for the results of the doctor to come out. ”
The next two days.
Han Dong wandered around the city of London like a normal resident.
During this period, there were also agents who came to the door and asked about the disappearance of the old man Vogt, but there was nothing special about it.
Moreover, it is different from what Han Dong expected.
I thought that the fact that he hurt the book seller under the bridge pier would make him target by the "whirlpool".
However, during this time, there were no glimpses of any whirlpool-related objects, and even the related whirlpool events showed signs of decreasing.
Finally.
On the third day, there was an induction from the mobile title deed.
Still under the pretext of leaving the city for one hour, the moment Han Dong came to the Dark Forest, he immediately entered the title deed.
"Doctor, what is the result?"
Dr. Swelling in the Core Lab is sitting in a ghoul chair with a giant brain.
The three days and three nights of intense research also made him tired.
"The substance that caused the spiraling of the flesh has been extracted from the alien crystal nucleus.
I've already finished writing the analysis report...... It's better for adults to take a look for yourself, there may be some troublesome things involved behind this. ”
A test tube was taken out of the cold room by Dr. No.99-West, a former Dre townsman who is not a demon.
The black liquid in the test tube is making a positive spiral motion on its own.
Han Dong took the test tube, opened the report, and after reading it for less than a minute, his eyes became gloomy.
"I'm going to see the yellow robe, doctor, come with me."
"Okay......" The doctor listened to meet the superior being, and the doctor's whole brain trembled with excitement.
"Mary, are you coming?"
“…… Go. ”
Han Dong held the test tube and the report in his hand and went straight to the theater area.
Although the two demons who came with them were mentally prepared in advance...... But the moment you step into the theater, you stare at the white tentacles that dot the private theater.
Mary was directly soaking wet,
The ghoul chair carrying the Doctor immediately became so weak that the Doctor rolled straight down...... In the posture of the giant brain, the doctor is like a leather ball, rolling down the sloping aisle towards the curtain platform.
Fortunately, Han Dong grabbed the cranial nerve with one hand and dragged it back.
There was no one in the theater for a moment, only tentacles wriggling.
Han Dong stared at the Makutai area and said with a serious face: "Senior...... Did the top brass in the city of London want to rebel?
The substance I extracted from the crystal nucleus of the dark dwellers affected by the vortex is essentially a combination of "the source of dark pollution" and "an unknown substance".
Expressed in a spiral shape, it can be used to effectively fight against evil spirits. ”
At this time, a yellow robe floats down above the curtain and combines with the tentacles at the lower end to form the yellow robe.
On the surface, it seems so.
As you've seen, many of the Old King's forces are investigating this matter, and have even killed the dark dwellers to invade the city of London under their identity.
But the hidden facts here are obscured by the fog, and this is what I call 'troublesome'.
Your investigation is going pretty well, keep it up.
Given your excellent performance under the pier in disguise as an old man a few days ago, let me give you a little advice......"
"Senior, please speak."
"Since you don't believe in the power of the city of London, you go on your own. Isn't there a good way to explore it in your hands? ”
"Path?! Senior, do you mean ......?"
"Just standing on the periphery, you can never know the truth of the matter. Just as those who wander outside the door are always just mayflies.
If you want to decrypt it, you must become an insider. ”
