Chapter 193: A Purple Fruit That Shines Brightly
The king lied, and in his description, the 12 people who died for the Degonians did not die, at least, not all of them.
In the forbidden area of life, Lao Wang and the others have indeed encountered some dangers, because this place has a large number of underground creatures that they have never heard of.
In fact, the combat effectiveness of these creatures is average, but they are all foreign monks, Lao Wang and the others are too anxious to enter the forbidden area of life, and they have not done their homework for the ecological environment, in this case, there are still a few sailors who died from the sneak attack of these strange beasts, but the number of people has not reached 12 people, as for the selectors, all of them are alive and jumping, naturally there is no problem, and the number of people who are overreported have a deeper purpose.
Regarded by the Dragons as a confidant illusion, it is a plant with strange glands, and the smell they emit has the effect of channeling emotions, and in terms of pure effect, their illusion level is not as good as the Shadow Circle set up by the Sukka and them, so the threat caused is not comparable to the attack of wild beasts.
Speaking of mysterious substances, the rendering of history makes their legends sound bluffing, and their true identity is the fruit of a special plant formed in the center of the forbidden area of life.
Lao Wang and when they started picking, the random space didn't even say a word, obviously, this kind of thing that attracted the people of Degong to sacrifice their lives was treated as an interactive element prop in the random space.
Of course, it cannot be said that these things are completely useless to the selectors, and they can still play a huge role in the current layout of Takenaka, and now, Takenaka is patiently waiting for the opportunity to use them.
"What are you talking about? five small, hooded men are going to be seen, still speaking human Dutchland?" The head of the sect was now discussing countermeasures with another sect elder who remained in the main city of the city in the center of the earth, and was in a depressed mood.
His captain of the guard disturbed him at this time, making his already sullen mood even more unhappy, but the captain's description of the visitor's appearance attracted his great attention.
"Yes, I and a few of my men have seen it, and they can't be wrong, they are only half the height of teenagers, the shortest one, even about six or seven years old, the guards at the sentry at first thought it was a prank by the little hooligans nearby, but their manners are very steady, there is not a trace of Dragone accent in Dutch, these are not the qualities that the thugs can embody, I can't wait to pay attention, so I will bother you. The captain of the guard replied honestly.
"This height, and the accent, can you say?!" What a person is the head of the sect, a strange possibility flashed through his mind, and he hurriedly said to the guards: "Bring people in immediately, clear the perimeter of the central building, 'pacify' all the people who may see their whereabouts, and the guards guarding the gate also withdraw in, and don't go home for the time being for 15 days." ”
The captain of the guard saluted and went in a hurry, his head was full of cold sweat, if he said that he was fighting, the ten sect leaders were not the captain's food, but when the old man gave those orders, the fierce look in his eyes was enough to make this man who could kill people with a knife shudder.
The head of the sect can't control the minds of his subordinates, his own thoughts are still alive, and at this juncture, the only people who can take the initiative to contact his own side are his companions who are also the forces of the sect.
If it was a companion, what was the reason for hiding his head and tail? Besides, he could not remember that any of his companions were unusually short or minors.
So, although it is unbelievable, there is a high probability that the people who come are outsiders, as for why they left the Scientology and why they appeared here, I believe there must be their reasons, however, these details can be discussed in the future, the most important thing now is to crucify them firmly in the headquarters of the sect, but it is still necessary to be cautious, these outsiders leave the Scientology and know that they will come to them immediately, which shows that they are not ignorant of the world of Dragone, and in front of them, they are not "the enemy of the enemy is my friend." That's a good job.
The five people of Takenaka were soon sent to the head of the church by the respectful and vigilant guards, and the old head was as excited as a young man at this time, his eyes constantly roaming over the five people who came in, and the judgment in his heart became more and more determined.
"Go down!" the head of the church said succinctly and forcefully, only the head and another elder were left in the huge small hall, they represented the supreme power of the church, in short, all the arrangements related to the church, they can make a decision here and now!
"Would you like something to drink?" the church elder stretched out his hand to invite the five mysterious visitors to sit down, and said in a slightly breezy and playful Dutch language, "I still have some treasured wines from the human world, but I don't know how to appreciate them, can you teach me?"
The head of the sect vaguely pointed out the identity of the other party, and used wine to close the distance without a trace, and the way of speaking was clever and effective, which could directly attract the attention of the other party and get a response.
"You're as wise as the outside world says. The shortest of the five cloaks took off his hood, showed a somewhat childish face, and smiled at the head of the sect, "What we like the most is to work with people like you." ”
It's not so much young, it's just a child!
The head of the sect naturally saw Takenaka Hanbei, this elder had never seen the little guy beforehand, and besides, he participated in today's life forbidden area to greet him, and he didn't remember that among the outsiders who came out today, there was such a one.
A child mixed in a bunch of adults, and moreover, it is such a distinctive character who speaks, as long as he looks at it, he will definitely be impressed, these outsiders do not belong to the group of people who come out of the forbidden area of life today, so, where did they come from?
The old fritter reacted immediately, pretending to be distracted, patted his forehead and said, "Look at me, I was stupid when I saw my friends, I just cared about talking, and the wine has not been served yet." As he spoke, he turned around and took out a few bottles of rum in a secret compartment in the small hall, poured a few glasses himself, beckoned another elder, and distributed them to Takenaka and the remaining four people, with swift and respectful movements, like the most skillful waiter.
"This honorable... Elder, you see, I'm still young, in our human world, people of my age don't drink, besides, I personally don't like to drink, it will damage my brain. Takenaka pushed his hand outward, refusing the drink offered by the head of the church.
"Aha, I know that extraordinary people must have some different behaviors and habits from others, so this glass of wine will be cheap for me. "The head of the sect has an astonishingly low posture, and his speech is smooth and happy, and it is simply impossible to be in the market, and there is no solemnity of the clergy at all.
He didn't feel sorry for Takenaka's refusal to pour the wine himself, but smiled and began to drink the rum in his hand, while carefully observing the remaining four people around Takenaka.
The rest of the people took the glasses that were handed to them, and like Takenaka, they also removed their hoods, both men and women, but their faces were very raw.
The head of the church looked at them again, checked it again in his heart, and thoroughly confirmed that these people did not appear in the team that came out of the forbidden zone of life today, so needless to say, what must have happened to these outsiders in the forbidden zone of life, which caused them to split into two groups, and it is very likely that they were poisoned by the group that came out of the forbidden zone today.
As for whether it was an outsider who had just landed on the island and then reached the underground, there was no need to think about it, the island was well defended, and it was impossible to bypass the eyes of the Dragons.
Outsiders, you just look stupid! The head of the sect secretly changed his opinion of outsiders in his heart, but don't forget, the division of the group and the fighting of each other, these episodes are not mentioned in the description of the other party's leaders.
He only said that in order to obtain material things, some of his companions died in the forbidden area of life, so that the people of Dragone would feel guilty about them, but what they did not expect was that now these five people appeared in front of them.
And these five people are obviously hiding cats!
If they were attacked by something in the forbidden zone of life, and in the end they did not die, why didn't they call for help when they came out of it, and instead of looking for their companions, they came to visit them quietly? Also, how did they come out of the forbidden zone of life? These are all proofs of the true strength of outsiders!
Damn! The leader cursed secretly, those adventurous idiots of the Scientology faction thought that they could manipulate these outsiders at will, and now it seems that these people are difficult to deal with in terms of combat strength and scheming city.
"Don't praise me, I'm just an ordinary human child, far from enough to be called excellent in front of you, but I'm here today to really help you. Takenaka sat in a large sofa made in the size of a Dragone, his feet out of reach of the ground, and he swayed happily in the air.
The head of the church didn't care about how innocent and natural the other party's movements looked now, but he still sat down next to the bamboo and said kindly: "I like your style of speaking very much, I don't hide or hide it, since you can make this kind of request, I think you also know some news, let me be very honest and say that our camp does need some help now, but I don't know how much help this gentleman can provide us?"
"What is the purpose of you sending people into the Life Forbidden Zone?" Takenaka asked rhetorically.
"Could it be that you mean!" The head of the church didn't move anymore, and now he couldn't sit still, he didn't think that the other party might use this bargaining chip to negotiate, but when the other party was really confirmed, he still felt that happiness came too suddenly.
The meaning of Takenaka's words is that they also have mysterious substances in their hands, if this is true, it is a good opportunity to close the gap with the Scientology, originally, in his arrangement, there is also a team of Guardian Holy Army will go to the Imperial Academy to steal those mysterious substances tonight.
The bamboo did not speak, the hand turned over, and a square purple object appeared out of thin air in the palm of the palm, although the shape is very regular, but the skin looks matte, a bit similar to the appearance of mangosteen, like the fruit of a certain plant, a square fruit, which looks very different.
The head of the church was about to come up to observe the fruit, but Takenaka had already prepared, turned his hand over again, the fruit disappeared, and said to the head of the church in a flat tone whose eyes were about to be hooked: "At first, we didn't know that nature would grow square fruits, but now that we have seen it, didn't you just say?" I agree, and in my opinion, the same goes for good items. ”
This is already clear, the thing I have in my hand is very good, it is the mysterious substance you want!
The head realized the gaffe, withdrew his eager eyes, and regained his composure: "What do you call this gentleman, if it is really as you say, what do we need to pay to get this help?"
"You can call me Van der Kamp Jr., but the little word will be removed soon, and after you help me kill the guys who came out before us, including my uncle, the last name will be mine, yes, that's our first request.
After that, you are going to send us to the surface and let us go, we can promise not to reveal your news to the outside world, and we need the people of Dragone to show some kindness to our actions. Takenaka looked meaningfully at the head of the sect and said, "Very sincere kindness." ”
To take revenge, to be free, and to ask for money, the leader of the sect simply considered the three demands put forward by Takenaka, and the disdain in his heart began to sprout, such a mystery, such a big battle, and in the end the requirements are like this? Hehe, these people are smart but smart, but they should not be in a high position, and their vision is at best a narrow-minded thug.
He didn't hesitate at all, he simply matched the colors with his companion, and after reading the affirmative meaning, he seriously stretched out his hand to Takenaka.
"This gentleman, I probably know that in your human world, holding each other's palms means that an agreement has been reached, I don't know if you are willing to agree?"
Takenaka was slightly startled by the sect leader's straightforward behavior, but he quickly returned to normal, shook the sect leader's big hand, and said, "You haven't listened carefully to our request, what is it? Why did you agree so quickly?"
"Then you might as well tell me, but I can tell you responsibly that we can agree. The head said unfazedly.
"You don't ask why we killed our companions, when we will return to the surface, and how much resources will we need?" Seeing that the other party directly agreed, Takenaka simply didn't bother to use any obscure words, and said directly and nakedly.
"We don't know, but if you ask, there's really no need to ask. The head of the sect had a calm expression, as if he had torn off the so-called "facing friends" face just now, and said:
"It's very likely that a few people entered the forbidden zone of life and fought for some reason, and the companions who came out first probably thought you were dead, so they didn't think about it, and now you escaped and got a chance for revenge, what does it matter what the cause is? We have enough elite warriors to help you kill, and I don't think the Scientologists will continue to hold your companions after they get their hands on what they have, and the first request I don't need to know the reason, and it can be done easily, so I agreed. ”
The head of the sect continued: "The last two requirements are easier, go to the surface, it is very simple under our escort, I can send you up as soon as possible, and I also believe that you can keep your promises, as for the assets? Hahaha, as far as I know, the most powerful precious metal in your human world right now is gold, right? It is not so much how much of this precious metal do you want, but how much you can hold is more reasonable, this thing, we have." ”
Takenaka stared intently at the head of the sect after saying this, and suddenly laughed out loud: "Hahahaha, this elder, with someone like you, I really don't understand why you are suppressed by someone from another faction." ”
"Isn't it the same as if I don't need to know the reason for your revenge, you don't need to know, after taking the gold and returning to the surface, you are still you, I am still me, the center of the earth is a dream of yours, it's as simple as that. ”
After the sect leader finished speaking, he felt his hand being held tightly and then let go, and the human child on the opposite side did not continue to speak, he had already jumped off the sofa, placed 5 purple-black square fruits on the luxurious stone table in front of the sect leader, and learned to pour wine for himself just now, and also returned a gesture of invitation to him.
The old Deron man was rude and did not respond to the gesture of Takenaka, and in his eyes, the fruits were shining brightly...
