Chapter 340: The Demon with the Cloak
Centipede's words reminded me again of the bartender at the Crystal Bar. Vertices
It is also a physical corpse, and it remains normal in mind without cultivation at all.
There must be some connection between this bartender and Haiting's living corpse incident.
The centipede suddenly asked me, "When are we going to find Ymir?" ”
I waved my hand: "Don't go to him, he'll come to me, and I'll take you with me when he meets me later." ”
The centipede said before that he could help me, but on the condition that I help him gain Imir's trust, so it was impossible for me to meet Ymir alone with the centipede on my back.
The centipede was a little puzzled: "You came to you?" Don't make a fuss, Ymir won't leave his red house. ”
I just smiled: "Not necessarily this time." ”
The centipede looked at me suspiciously, but didn't say anything.
It seems that I need to pay more attention to Haiting now, not only has there been a corpse mutiny incident in Haiting, many evil corpses are still holding important positions, and the bishop of Haiting has long since taken refuge in the King of Yellow.
But at the moment, in addition to Haiting, there are many things to deal with, and the meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and things must be done one by one.
I still plan to follow the original steps, first unite with the three major earth order factions to deal with the King in Yellow, and then try to clean up the cult, or completely restrict them, if I can kill the King in Yellow in the process, it is best, and finally, go to Haiting to participate in the final test.
But now it seems that there are two more issues that need to be resolved after this final test.
Solve the matter of Fiser first, and then change the status quo of Haiting.
Really, I found myself to be a real person, and I could get into a lot of trouble wherever I went.
During this time of my contemplation, the centipede didn't say a word, just stood aside and waited silently.
After a long time, I raised my head and said to him, "Until I see Ymir, you'd better not make a big move on your side, in case you startle the snake." ”
The centipede nodded at first, and then asked me worriedly, "I heard that you went to the arena a few days ago, how was it, did you see Eros?" ”
I know why he's worried, he's worried, because he doesn't think I'll be able to make a name for myself in the arena anytime soon, and there's even a possibility that I haven't had a new tournament scheduled for me except for one game on the first day I registered.
I smiled and asked the centipede, "Have you ever heard of the blind god?" ”
The centipede nodded: "The name of the blind god has already spread all over the sea market, and no matter how closed I am, it is impossible that I have not heard of him." ”
As he spoke, the centipede's expression changed, and after saying this, he paused slightly, and then seemed to suddenly think of something, and suddenly his eyes widened: "You are a blind god?" ”
I laughed a little helplessly: "This nickname is given by the audience, in fact, I hate that they call me that." At present, I have formed an alliance with the Rat King and Eros, and I am waiting for Ymir. ”
It was difficult for the centipede's fragmented face to make a complete expression, but it could still be seen that he was shocked now: ", you've only been in Haishi for a few days...... How did you do that? ”
"What else can I do, I'm going to be improvised."
"Improvisation? I think there must be a lot of different meanings in your mouth. ”
There didn't seem to be much more to say at the moment, so I casually found a conversation, chatted with the centipede, and then prepared to leave.
Just as I opened the door and tried to get out of the warehouse, the centipede suddenly stopped me: "By the way, Gai, there is one more thing ......."
I looked back at him, "What's the matter?" ”
The centipede pondered for a moment before he stumbled, "I'm not sure if this rumor is true, but there are people who claim that the thing is back." ”
I savored the centipede's words, and sure enough, I found that it was impossible to understand them.
"What's back?" I asked the centipede.
The centipede was silent for a while, and it took nearly a minute or so before responding, "The demon with the cloak." It...... They...... It used to be a nightmare for the sea market. ”
When this guy spoke, he was completely speechless and stopped, as if this so-called cloak demon had brought him very terrifying memories.
I asked him tentatively, "Why have I been in Haishi for so long and never heard anyone mention this?"
The centipede replied, "It's everyone's nightmare, and its name is a taboo for us. ”
I stared at the centipede and saw that his eyes were dodging, as if trying to escape something, and at the same time, I could clearly feel the fear in his heart.
In the end, I just nodded and didn't ask too much.
Since I returned to the tavern, I have been thinking about Centipede's words repeatedly, and after thinking about it, I think there should be no metaphor in his words, just to express that there is a group of rather dangerous things back in the market.
Given that the centipede had said that the name of that thing was still taboo in the hearts of the residents, I didn't plan to ask the little devil about it, and when Lilith came to me, I would better ask her, she had been in the sea market for so many years, she should have heard of that thing.
Lilith was even more efficient than I expected, and at half past six in the evening, I was sitting at the bar eating the barbecue that the Magic Mountain had prepared for me, when the door was rudely opened with a screech of the doorway, and Lilith's graceful figure stepped over the threshold.
The little devil had never seen Lilith, and Lilith was masked with a black veil at the time, and there was a mysterious aura all over her body, which made the little devil feel dangerous, and his palm subconsciously touched a long knife on the edge of the bar.
Joanna recognized the identity of the person at a glance, and raised her eyebrows sharply.
I felt that Joanna seemed to be a little afraid of Lilith, not only afraid, but also bored.
I shook the fork in my hand at Lilith: "Let's eat together, the magic mountain is a good craft." ”
I guess it was also because I knew Lilith that the little devil and Joanna let down their guard a little.
Lilith walked over to the bar and sat down, sighing, "Have a drink." ”
Listening to this tone, why is she so sad, could it be that her plan to seduce Ymir failed?
Thinking so in my heart, I also asked the same on my lips: "What's the matter, Ymir didn't fall for your beauty trick?" ”
Lilith waved her hand: "Hey, don't mention it, he hates to pester me for the rest of his life now, and he is happy to lock me by his side every day." ”
"So you've got it?"
"! It would have been too easy for him to fall in love with me, but to get him out of that red house would be like asking for his life, he said, unless he became a corpse, no one would ever want to drag him out of that house. And what else to say, as soon as he leaves that house, the Facelings will grab him at the first opportunity, and they will torture him and maim him until he takes his last breath. ”
