Chapter 286: The King in Yellow

Having such an ally as a little devil is of course a great thing for me, he grew up in the sea and knows almost all the rules in the sea market, plus he is ruthless enough, decisive enough to do things, and smart enough, with him, I am equivalent to having a sharp blade that can tear through the darkness.

The most important thing at the moment is to set up a lantern array in the market, and with the blessing of the light array, I can move freely in the market.

The architectural pattern in the sea market is extremely complex, and it is not easy to find the root knot of the general trend of feng shui, so at first I planned to let the little devil take me around more so that I can see through the feng shui layout in the city in a short time.

But the little devil gave me a better choice, he gave me a map of the sea market, this map can be said to be extremely detailed, from the surface building structure, the terrain contour lines, to the layout of the pipes of the underground drainage system, all of which were meticulously drawn, and the specific height of each large building was also marked on the map, with an accuracy of two decimal places.

With this map, we don't have to wander around aimlessly.

Thanks to the fact that the little devil has such a map in his hand, because the underground pipe system is too large, which affects the flow of the leylines, so that it is impossible to see the real feng shui trend by looking at the surface buildings alone, I spent three days studying this map, and finally found the four array eyes that can be used to arrange the light array.

These four formations are located in the shantytown on the left side of the sea garden, the southern end of Qianfan Harbor, the old warehouse in the north of the city, and the residential area in the northwest of the city.

The formation in the city is not as good as the deep mountains, after all, the deep mountains are inaccessible, and no one will deliberately destroy the formation you arranged, but in the city, the population is too dense, even if the light array is arranged, it may be destroyed by passers-by intentionally or unintentionally.

It's a real problem.

I thought about it all night, but I couldn't come up with a better solution, so I went to the bar with the map and talked to the little devil about what to do.

The little devil has a pair of thick-framed eyes on the bridge of his nose, and he is holding a needle and thread, helping the magic mountain to repair old clothes.

You may not believe it, the little devil and the magic mountain are actually a bunch of twin brothers, the magic mountain is the elder brother, the little devil is the younger brother, because the parents of the two are close, the brothers both have congenital defects.

The little devil is congenital achondrolia hypoplasia, and the magic mountain is congenitally mentally retarded, since the death of his parents, it has always been the little devil who has been taking care of the magic mountain carefully, and the magic mountain will not do anything else except cooking, and this kind of sewing and mending work is also done by the little devil.

During this period, I asked the little devil why he let the magic mountain stay in the kitchen, after all, the kitchen is full of knives and stoves, isn't he afraid that the magic mountain will hurt himself?

The little devil said that he was very afraid, especially in the first two years when Moshan first entered the kitchen, he was terrified every day, but he had no other choice, he had to let Moshan master a craft that could support himself, only in this way, Moshan could survive on his own strength when he arrived in the outside world.

Over the years, the little devil has been working hard to save money, so that one day he can send the magic mountain out of the sea market. I don't know what the reason is, he always feels that he can't live long, and he is worried that if one day he is gone, the magic mountain will not be able to survive independently in the sea market.

It wasn't until I reached the bar with the map in my hand that the little devil took off his glasses and asked without looking up, "Got in trouble?" ”

I nodded, and talked about the problem I was experiencing.

After listening to my words, the little devil also fell into a long contemplation.

I don't know how long it took for him to suddenly say, "Are you interested in Ymir?" ”

I pondered for a moment, and immediately understood what he meant: "Can Ymir help us?" ”

The little devil couldn't help but laugh: "You are so smart that people are scared sometimes. Yes, Ymir can help us, to be exact, you can use his power to achieve your own ends, but only if you gain his trust. ”

"How?"

"I'm only responsible for bringing you in, as for what to do...... It's up to you. ”

"Then you must at least tell me what kind of convenience Ymir can provide me, so that I can at least have a direction."

"Ymir controls the city's power system."

This guy only talks half of what he says, and the remaining half is up to you to guess.

It also took me a little time to figure out that Ymir mastered the city's power system, which meant that he had the ability to create a no-man's land in the city.

I remember when I was walking around the sea market with the little devil a few days ago, he once said that in this city, the brighter the light, the more dangerous it is. So much so that most of the dimly lit alleys are crowded with people, and the brightest roads are not visible to a few pedestrians.

As long as Ymir's power is used to build a bright enough light system around the four array eyes, it is equivalent to carving out a new no-man's land near the array eye, and in this way, the chance of the light array being destroyed will be greatly reduced.

Here, I have two more questions to ask: "You didn't say that Ymir also controls the electricity supply in the city, and you didn't say why the more brightly lit the place, the more dangerous it is." ”

The little devil pouted: "I admit, it was my negligence, because the power plant is just one of Ymir's many side industries, and I don't think it's too important, so I didn't say it." The well-lit places are dangerous because they harbor the minions of the King of the Yellow Coat. ”

"The King in Yellow?"

"One of the Old Dominators, since five years ago, a large number of followers of the King of Yellow have sprung up in the sea market."

The little devil said as he pulled open the cabinet behind the bar and rummaged through it.

It took a long time for him to pull out a stack of old books from the cabinet and push them in front of me: "These are the manuscripts left by your master back then, which record his research on the Cthulhu Mythos. ”

I had heard Master mention the Cthulhu Mythos before, and at that time, Master also said that the Four Directions Heavenly Pole might be related to this artificially made up mythological system, but Master only mentioned a few words occasionally, so I didn't take it seriously.

I didn't expect Master to attach so much importance to this mythological system, and even wrote such a huge research note for this purpose.

I took a notebook and flipped through it, and heard the little devil say on the side: "Your master has never believed that Cthulhu is real, but there is evidence that someone is using this mythological system to establish a new cult in the Inland Sea. Now this cult has infiltrated the interior of the sea market, and the king in yellow we mentioned just now comes from the Cthulhu Mythos system. ”
