The man in a black robe with a tilted balance badge on his chest cautiously stepped into it and bowed respectfully to the mysterious man in the room who sat on a mahogany chair with his back to him.
"I'm so sorry, my master, for what you told me ......"
"Failed?" A voice that could not be described for specific characteristics sounded, interrupting the black-clothed man's apology with a sneer: "There was a movement that almost destroyed the entire Northern Regions, do you think I will not know?"
When the man in black heard this, he immediately lowered his head. But he didn't seem to be too distracted. Because of the years of getting along, he has heard that his master's mood does not seem to be too bad.
"I'm so sorry, my master. He replied, "Because of our incompetence, we were not able to bring back the experiment chosen by the professor at the end." β
"The professor doesn't have to worry about him. Turning his back to the figure of the man in black, he said: "That is his experiment, I have not been interested in this kind of thing since the beginning, it doesn't matter if it is successful or not." β
"But what if the professor blames him?" asked the man in black hesitantly.
"So what?" said the master of the man in black indifferently, "For his sake, our side has already lost a high-ranking powerhouse. Even if he had any whispers, that alone would be enough to shut him up. β
Speaking of this, the "master" sighed and changed the subject: "Tell me, how did Rhodes die?"
"When we were on our way to capture our target, we encountered the Black Sword Master. Hearing his master's question, the man in black hurriedly explained: "Rhodes insisted on killing people because the Sword Saint saw through his mind. β
"So you're slaughtered?" the mysterious man mocked.
"Yes, master. The man in black nodded respectfully, and then as if he remembered something, he hurriedly said, "But we didn't gain nothing, we found the true body of the Black Sword Saint there!"
"You mean the silver-haired boy?" The owner in the chair sneered again, mockingly.
The man in black who heard this sneer immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He really couldn't imagine that his master already knew this information. And just as he was about to defend himself, he was questioned immediately after the figure he was sitting on a mahogany chair.
"Colby, when did you become so naΓ―ve. Do you really think that anyone can step to the height of the strongest at that age?"
"But......" The man in black whose name was called out became sincerely frightened at this moment.
"It was the real 'Black Swordmaster' who killed Rhodes!" the mysterious man asserted, "but that kid must have something to do with the real Swordmaster." No, or maybe he should be the personal disciple of His Excellency the Sword Saint. β
"Then should we start from him and find out the whereabouts of the true Sword Master?" Calby asked tentatively, "After all, the existence of a supreme being is too dangerous for your master's plan. β
"No, don't act rashly just yet. The mysterious man rejected the offer: "I think you have seen the scene from three days ago. In the face of that kind of inhuman existence, if we can't kill with one blow, then we will definitely face annihilation. β
"And that kid isn't unusual either. The mysterious man paused and continued: "Not to mention that he does have the strength of a superior person. The mere fact that he was Elena's son was tricky. β
"Lady Yelena?" Colby was stunned, then suddenly reacted, and couldn't help but wonder "Could it be ......?"
"The only Potion Grandmaster among the Star People, one of the three leaders of the Balance Society, Lady Elena Christian. The mysterious man said helplessly: "Although the Tianping Society is the main peace faction, there are still a few high-level powerful people in it. What's more, we can't fully expose ourselves yet. β
"Well, my master. Are we going to delay our plans a bit?" Suddenly hearing an anecdote that he had not known before, Colby couldn't help but worry: "The threat of a supreme man is ...... after all"
"No, our plans cannot be delayed. The mysterious man said resolutely: "For the strongest, we are not without any hole cards. β
"But master, can we really kill a supreme man with our hole cards?" Calby couldn't help but question. The scene three days ago really shocked him so much that he couldn't imagine that there really was a way to kill such an inhuman being in this world.
"The strongest is inhuman, but not immortal. The mysterious man sighed lightly: "As long as it is a living existence, there is nothing that cannot be killed." β
Immediately after, he waved his hand back and motioned, "Colby, you don't need to worry about this matter. There are two things I need you to do next. β
"Command, my master. Colby bowed down respectfully again.
"First, check the condition of the one underground. This time it was so big that I was worried that it would be affected and wake up early. If it's awake, use up all the drugs, block all the passages, and be sure to let it go underground until the day we plan to activate it. β
"Second, follow your new master. When the Cathedral of Irma is finished, tell him something he should know. β
"Understood, my master. Colby nodded yes and slowly stepped back: "Then, please forgive me for retiring first." β
"Hmm. The mysterious man waved his hand and said indifferently: "Go ahead." β
......
In the northern region, in the abyss underground, intricate tunnels spread here. And in the largest of tunnels, a huge, slender figure like a vein underground, was winding and twisting, sleeping in this palace that was eternally silent and dim.
The figure resembles a centipede, with six large closed eyes on its head and a mouth made up of four large curved claws like a scimitar. Its body is covered in a grotesquely twisted and misshapen shell of black and red, splitting its body into countless limbs. Beneath each segment, long, sharp appendages extend out and pierce deep into the rock, anchoring it firmly into the ground.
Today, this giant monster has been sleeping in the underground of the Northern Regions for more than fifty years. And when the feast of life played on the ground, when the huge tentacles on the earth pierced the ground, the six eyes that were closed on the monster's head suddenly opened one.
At this moment, the blood-like scarlet suddenly lit up in the eternal darkness of the earth.
