Chapter 425: Tacit
Bishop Prometheus suddenly turned to the hidden question, and in an instant the situation in the field turned in the other direction. Blake looked at Hidden again in surprise, although he didn't know why Prometheus would ask this, but it was clear that this move was not groundless.
"I don't—" paused for a moment, as if considering something, and finally said slowly, "I have a guess, but I'm not sure. ”
As all five questions were asked and answered, the lingering light on the Immortal Council, which was shaped like a golden tripod, slowly dimmed. The tentacles that wrapped the four of them also quietly retracted into the belly. With a soft "click", the mouths of the four golden skeletons opened in unison, spitting out the fingers of the four people who had been held in their mouths.
Hearing this, Blake had no intention of paying attention to anything else, his eyes were blazing on Yin, who was leaning on the eight-legged seat, and he asked a little out of shape, "You know, how did the hunter learn about our operation?!" ”
"I don't know." Through the sleeves of his robe, he gently massaged his numb knuckles, and said ominously, "I just suddenly thought of it, some possibility." ”
I don't know if I was a little unhappy with Prometheus's last question, but Yin suddenly pointed the finger at the former, "Since the bishop asked so, I think I also thought of that aspect, right?" ”
"I don't know as much about this as you do. After all, whether it's about the body of a false god or the father and daughter, you're more familiar than me, aren't you? Prometheus kicked the ball back with an understatement, only to receive a cold snort from the latter.
"This matter is very important, it directly affects the rise and fall of our sect, and I ask Lord Yin not to hide his secrets." Blake was anxious to know the inside story, and he couldn't care about the conflict with Prometheus at all, so he lowered his body and asked Yin Yin according to the bishop's words, "No matter what you guessed, I still hope to say it, let's study and discuss it together, okay?" ”
"Mirror Moon World." After a long silence, he said faintly
"Do you mean, the moon of S City?" Blake reacted instantly, "I remember, it's the Moon Witch's workshop now, right?" ”
"Yes, two weeks ago, someone entered the Mirror Moon World." Without the slightest tone, the mechanical synthesized voice said calmly, "If I'm not mistaken, the person who went in is the body of a false god, and he may have come into contact with the Moonlight Witch." ”
"As the remains of an independent world that replaces the representation of the moon in S City, the moonlight witch who controls the mirror moon world is, in a sense, independent of the observation outside this world. Since our action was at night, it was not impossible for her to predict it. ”
"Can it be predicted, is it so accurate?" Blake frowned, "As far as I know, the Moonlight Witch isn't a witch who is good at prophecy, is she?" ”
"How do I know?" "Maybe it's just a rough estimate, and then with the help of the special Inhumans that the hunter has." Ten years ago, the academic Jialanfu Island was also accurately found by hunters with the blessing of my independent reality. ”
"But right now, the hunters don't seem to have such powerful prophetic abilities, do they?" From Blake's tone, it could be seen that he still didn't quite agree with this statement: "If they can really peek through the location information with the blessing of your independent reality now, why haven't they found the dungeon of our branch until now?" It's a lot easier than finding a moving floating island at sea, right? ”
"So I said, just guessing." Even if it's just a synthesized sound, everyone can clearly notice that the former is already a little impatient with this, "If you don't think it's possible, you don't hear it." ”
"That's not what I meant," Blake said, his face visibly embarrassed.
Today, it is clear that he himself proposed to use the Immortal Council to convene a light trial against Prometheus. Unexpectedly, in the end, it was this result, and the five questions not only cleared the suspicion of the latter, but Prometheus opened the gap with its last question. Now it seems that Yin's speculation is the most likely and closest to reality, but if this incident ends like this, he can't be reconciled from any point of view.
Not to mention that because of this incident, the relationship with Bishop Prometheus has deteriorated dramatically. If, as Yin had speculated, the Pseudo-God Bodies were able to use the power of the Moon Witch to spy on their movements, then wouldn't it mean that the Canaan Land Project would be at an impasse?
The most troublesome thing is not limited to this, he knows very well in his heart that among the four people present, and he does not talk about Li Fa, who is equal to an outsider. Whether it is Prometheus or Hidden, I am afraid that secretly they do not want the Canaan Land project to be completed now. This is also his biggest headache, the two of them have their own plans and calculations, which is already a tacit secret between the three parties.
But now Blake only vaguely guessed what the two were plotting, but he didn't know the specific details. If we can't catch up with the progress of the Canaan Land Project before that day comes, then the efforts of the three parties in the past ten years will probably be exhausted.
"We need to get this confirmed as soon as possible!" Blake gritted his teeth and proposed, "If Hidden Adult's speculation is true, then we must deal with this hidden danger. Now it's not a question of whether the Canaan Land Project can go smoothly, and if they guess the location of our dungeon, then..."
Speaking of this, Blake hinted in an accentuated tone, "All our previous preparations will be in vain!" ”
"Ah, there's nothing wrong with that." Prometheus smiled and said, "Just this afternoon, I received a relatively accurate message. ”
"What's the news?"
"The location of the Gate of Eternal Life should have been exposed." Prometheus said indifferently, "If nothing else, in the next few days, the hunter's side will have to make a move." ”
"Why did you say such important news?" Li Fa was shocked, "Since this place has been exposed, you still let me come back?" What do you guys think! ”
"I think it's good that the four of us will be here tonight, so it's good to take this opportunity to say, isn't it?" Prometheus didn't feel nervous at all, "You don't have to worry, it's only the Gate of Eternal Life that exposes the location, even if the hunter really finds out the location of the three underground palaces." If you want to launch a large-scale offensive, you can't prepare it in a day or two. ”
"Hell, I wouldn't be coming back if I knew I wouldn't be back." Li Fa said with a disgusted face: "What is this, the Immortal Council has run out, right?" I don't need to do anything next, do I? I'm not like you three-headed monsters, and I won't be able to help if the hunters do attack me. If nothing else, I'm going back now. ”
"In that case." Prometheus gently shook a small copper bell in the corner of the prayer platform, and Ye Ling, who was waiting outside the side door of the church, walked in quietly. He commanded softly, "Take High Priest Lifa to the side hall to rest, and later inform Priest Medusa that she will escort the High Priest back to his lodgings." ”
Hearing this arrangement, Li Fa's eyes lit up, and he was obviously quite satisfied. Without the slightest intention of staying here, he followed Ye Ling out of the church with satisfaction.
"Is the message accurate?" After watching the former's figure disappear completely, Blake turned his head to Prometheus and asked in a deep voice
"Absolutely." Prometheus smiled slightly, "I got this news from that eyeliner." ”
"On the hunter's side, how did you know the location of the Gate of Eternal Life?"
"In that night's operation, Chu Jin did not succeed in getting rid of all the living mouths in the end, and Yin fell into the hands of the other party."
"It took two days to say." Blake couldn't help but look disdainful, "I said earlier, these quick Chosen ones are not trustworthy at all. ”
"Hehe, but it's a very effective replenishment of combat power, isn't it?" Prometheus smiled nonchalantly, "And he didn't confess on his own initiative, he was later retrieved by the hunters." Even if you change to the most faithful Chosen One in the sect, you can't change this outcome. ”
"So what do we do now?" Blake said dissatisfiedly, "Although the Gate of Eternal Life was originally set up as bait, if you can't get enough results, the hunters won't give up, right?" It's probably only a matter of time before you find the three dungeons. ”
"If the body of the false god can really predict the information of our last action through the moonlight witch, it is not impossible to guess where we are from this point of view, right? The means we relied on to evade search now seem to be unreliable. ”
"We're in a lot of situations right now, but it's not to the point where it's hard to deal with." Prometheus looked indifferent, "From the time I started on the 6023 test subject, I never thought that I could continue to hide the hunter's sight. The hidden independent reality is not omnipotent, and it is only a matter of time before the hunter finds our dungeon, so instead of passively waiting, it is better to hold the initiative in our hands. ”
"What do you mean?" Blake's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked, "Abandon the car to protect the handsome?" ”
"Among the three dungeons, the 'Land of the Ark' where the hive is located must not be exposed, and also because of the ethereal spirit that carries the fragments of the incarnation of the gods, the 'Initial City' must not fall into the hands of hunters. I think I'll give them the hidden Garden of Eden. Prometheus continued, discussing how expired food is handled
"Now that the Canaan Land Project has come to this point, the low-level believers who have received from the Samsara Festival are no longer useful. In order to prepare for the final moment, we should also clean up these burdens by the way, right? ”
"You deliberately took Li Fa?" Blake asked coldly
"How can you say that, he himself wants to go back first." Prometheus said, "And this time I didn't succeed in receiving the original embryo, so it also had a big impact on the preparation of the ceremony, right?" Borrowing the hands of hunters to carry out a large-scale blood sacrifice can delay a lot of time, right? ”
Although he felt that something was wrong, Blake couldn't find a loophole in Prometheus' arrangement. Now he couldn't help but regret a little that he had used up the opportunity to ask questions so easily during the Light Judgment just now. The more the other party behaved without problems, the more doubts in his heart grew.
"So hidden, you don't have any problem with that, right?" Prometheus saw that Blake acquiesced to his arrangement, and turned his head to ask the hidden next to him.
"I don't care." "It's just that before that, there are more important things to deal with, right?" ”
"What could be more important?" Prometheus asked rhetorically
"As Blake said, the body of the false god seems to have come into contact with the Moonlight Witch, why don't we deal with this hidden danger first?" Yin paused and said, "If we don't solve this problem, what's the difference between our plans and covering our ears and stealing the bell." ”
"Well, don't worry about that." Prometheus calmly uttered something that shook the hearts of the other two
"I'm ready to accept the Mirror Moon World, I'm ready."
