Chapter 25: The Last Step?
"Kate, they're in danger right now, we have to rush back immediately!"
As soon as he met Dante, Dante hurriedly said to Qin Feng. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
During the battle with Bob Barbas, Dante received information from Bob Barbas that the Order's address had been discovered and was now surrounded by troops.
"Don't worry, it's fine."
Shaking his head, Qin Feng said very indifferently.
"Why?"
Seeing that Qin Feng was not in a hurry, although he was a little puzzled, Dante's mood couldn't help but stabilize.
Smiling, Qin Feng didn't answer Dante directly, "You will know if you come with me." ā
With that, Qin Feng opened the space tunnel and dragged Dante in.
"You're back?"
As soon as they walked out of the space tunnel, Qin Feng and Dante heard Virgil's voice.
"Virgil?"
Looking at Virgil who appeared in front of him, Dante was a little incredulous, and then when he saw Kate on the side, he ran directly to her, grabbed her shoulder, and said with some excitement, "Kate? Are you okay? ā
Not accustomed to such intimacy, Kate blushed, turned her head away, and said, "I'm fine." ā
"Huh."
Now Dante also knew his faux pas, smiled and took his hands away, scratched his head, but soon thought of something, and hurriedly said.
"Didn't the news say that the location of the Order had been found? Why are you still here? ā
"Don't worry."
Virgil walked up to Dante and patted him, "This is not the original place last time, this is another stronghold of the Order. ā
"Another stronghold?"
"Well, this is my brother's proposal." Virgil looked at Qin Feng and said, "My brother said before, as a secret force, you can't have only one stronghold, it's too dangerous, so I built two more strongholds in this city for backup, and here is one of them." ā
"Then why are you here?"
Knowing that this is not a place to be surrounded, Dante's heart is relieved.
"That's what my brother told me, too."
He continued to look at Qin Feng Virgil and said, "This morning, my brother told me that the original stronghold of the Order may have been discovered, and asked us to move immediately, although I don't know why, but we still decided to listen to my brother, so, after you left, we directly moved the stronghold. I didn't expect that it was really found there. ā
When Virgil said this, Kate and Dante also looked at Qin Feng, as if they wanted to see something from Qin Feng's face, and Qin Feng was a little embarrassed when he saw it.
"Did I become handsome?"
touched his face and pretended to be narcissistic.
"Handsome."
"It's handsome."
"Very handsome."
For some reason, Virgil, Dante and Kate said very tacitly.
"Ahem" choked, he didn't expect to laugh at the three guys behind his back, Qin Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seemed that he had to give them an explanation, he thought about it, "Okay, can't I recruit it!" ā
Hearing Qin Feng's confession, the three of them looked at each other with a tacit understanding, and then laughed as well.
"Dante, didn't I tell you before that I had been to an underwater prison before?"
After sorting out his thoughts, Qin Feng naturally couldn't tell the truth, so he came up with an excuse.
"Yes, indeed." After thinking for a while, Dante affirmed, "By the way, and you said that you met a demon there, and from him you learned about Bob Barbas...... Could it have something to do with this demon? ā
"Yes, you guessed right." Qin Feng nodded, looked at them, and continued, "That demon's name is Phoenix. ā
"Phoenix!"
Virgil cried out suddenly, apparently surprised.
"Well, Virgil, you know him?"
Qin Feng was also a little surprised when he looked at Virgil's actions.
"Yes, I know. Phoenix is a thousand-year-old demon, he is very famous among demons, he is a scientist, an inventor, and most importantly, he is a prophet. After a pause, Virgil glanced at Qin Feng and continued, "His strength is very strong, but he is not subject to the leadership of Mandas, so hundreds of years ago, he disappeared, and it is rumored that he was killed by Mandas, but I didn't expect that he was actually imprisoned in an underwater prison." ā
"So? Did he tell you all this news, brother? After thinking for a moment, Virgil said tentatively.
"No, he didn't tell me." Qin Feng denied it directly, and then without waiting for Virgil to speak, he continued, "Phoenix is already dead, killed by me. ā
"Ahh
Virgil looked at Qin Feng in disbelief.
"When I saw him, he was so weak that he couldn't even be as weak as a mid-level underworld, so I killed him." Shrugging his shoulders, Qin Feng said lightly, "I didn't expect him to be so famous." ā
"So now that he's dead, brother, how did you get that information?"
Dante on the side also chimed in, raising his own questions.
"Well, I don't know about this, I just know that after killing him, I will suddenly see some pictures and information from time to time, and, after many confirmations, I found that those pictures and information are things that are about to happen."
This is the excuse that Qin Feng came up with, through the original plot and the information obtained after devouring Phoenix's soul, Qin Feng knew that Phoenix did have the ability to predict the future, so he used this as an excuse to dispel the doubts of Virgil and others, anyway, with Qin Feng's understanding of the plot, it was indeed a kind of 'prophecy'.
"I see."
Although it is a little incredible, for Virgil and Dante, they have always believed that Qin Feng is their own brother, so there is no need to deceive them.
"That is." After thinking about it for a while, Virgil, who accepted Qin Feng's 'prophecy' ability, raised his head and asked, "Brother, you have the ability to speak." So knowing what is going to happen today. ā
"Yes."
Qin Feng nodded.
"So, brother, do you see anything other than this?" Virgil, who had been affirmed, looked a little excited, after all, if Qin Feng could really predict it, then for them, this would definitely be an extremely important advantage.
"No, it will be so easy, this ability is not under my control at all, its appearance or not can only depend on luck, and besides, this prophecy ability is very limited, and can only see things related to me within 1 day."
Directly denied it, plus some restrictions, after all, Qin Feng said that his ability was only obtained by accident, if he said everything that would happen next, wouldn't it be omniscient and omnipotent, then it would be too abnormal, and anyway, Virgil and they would not be able to distinguish the truth from the false.
"Okay. It's true that I'm too anxious, and yes, if the power of prophecy is really that powerful, Phoenix won't be locked up. ā
Shaking his head, Virgil summed himself up.
"Brother, you've already killed Bob Barbas?"
Finally returned to today's topic, no longer pursuing Qin Feng's affairs, Qin Feng had a feeling that his face was full of cows, and sure enough, there was still pressure in his heart to deceive people.
However, without waiting for Qin Feng to speak, Dante on the side showed a smug smile and said angrily: "Of course, my brother and I will go out, and Bob will only have to go to see Satan." ā
"Really? That's really good news. Hearing that Bob Barbas was dead, Virgil lowered his head, touched his jaw with his hand, and muttered, "Now that we have killed the Succubus and Bob Barbas, ruined the King's Demon Drink and the Raptor News Network, and the failure of today's encirclement and suppression of us, all the plans have been completed, and it has slightly exceeded expectations, I think Mandas should be angry enough." It should be able to lure him out, so that's pretty much the final step. ā
"I've been waiting for this step."
Dante said confidently. In that case, it seemed that he wanted to rush to Mandas, cut him down, and hang him up. And Virgil, although there is not much change on the surface, the corners of his mouth and the constantly flickering gaze also leak out all the excitement in his heart.
Seeing them like this, Qin Feng had to secretly shake his head in his heart. are not mature enough.
Think about the personalities of Dante and Virgil.
Dante is uninhibited, casual, and fond of freedom, but under these appearances, he trusts the people he approves, and at the same time he does not hesitate to do what he has to do. At the same time, I don't know whether it is the daring of the artist, or the impulsive and reckless, or both, in terms of acting, he has not thought about what will happen after failure, and it can even be said that if necessary, even if he knows that he will die, Dante will not hesitate to do it. While this spirit of indomitable is indeed good, it often leads to irreparable consequences.
On the other hand, Virgil is close-minded, scheming, serious, pays attention to planning and efficiency in everything, and will do whatever it takes to achieve the goal. His personality is indeed very suitable to be a leader and planner against the organization, but it is precisely this overly cautious personality that will cause him to lose many opportunities, and at the same time, it will also make him lonely.
However, if Dante and Virgil can get along well and complement each other, then, with Dante's bravery and Virgil's resourcefulness, they will have no rival. However, it is difficult to do this, as can be seen in the original plot, where Dante dislikes Virgil's approach very much. Although Virgil has converged a lot now under Qin Feng's influence, it still takes effort to get along with the two of them in harmony and be sincere, and this is what Qin Feng wants to do, and it is also something that only Qin Feng can accomplish.
"Don't think too well, it's time to make up your mind, and rushing it can backfire. It's better to see how Mandas reacts. ā
Looking at the two of them who had already entered the state of decisive battle, Qin Feng had to pour a basin of cold water on them to cool them down, "Anyway, I don't think it will go so smoothly." ā
"Amount"
As soon as Qin Feng said this, the two of them who were originally high-spirited cooled down instantly, and they both knew that they were indeed too anxious.
Calming down, Virgil reverted to his usual rigour, "Okay, I'll keep an eye on Mandas's movements, if he is really provoked by us, he will definitely take action, and if not, then our plan has failed." ā
"Okay, then, I'll leave this matter to you."
Virgil is a real person who can recover so quickly and understands what needs to be done at the moment, and he is really not reliable in that regard.
"Dante, don't be idle, give me a trip to the Prison to see what the demons in the Prison are doing."
"What about you, brother?"
Knowing his mission, Dante asked rhetorically.
"Me?"
Pointing at himself, Qin Feng patted Dante.
"Of course I have my own business, do you still think that I will go back to drink flower wine?"
"Okay!"
Scratching his head with a wry smile, Dante was embarrassed.
"So, that's it, I'll see you in the evening."
Under Qin Feng's order, everyone began to act.
