164. Lost Bell and Viper
Finally, after a long time, Bell put the letter down, put one hand on his forehead, and looked worried:
"Really, is that what I think?"
Sifer actually knows about the pit that sealed Ram? The sealing location has obviously been processed by anti-prophecy spells, and all documents involving Ram have also been disposed of.
"Mirage General Pierra, he ······ Really betrayed me? Bell muttered.
According to the letter, Sifer, like himself, is also a legendary Great Devil of the 12th order. This level of combat far surpasses the level of normal ninth-order devils, and I am afraid that only powerful devils of the level of the Dark Eight Demon Generals can sneak attack and interfere with Syphael in battle.
Among the Dark Eight Demon Generals, the only ones who really fell completely to Bell were the snake language general Zack and the miraculous machine general Pirla. Among them, the snake general is still the weakest of the eight demon generals. If Pyrra really betrays, the consequences are unimaginable!
However, it cannot be ruled out that there is a problem with the reply itself.
But I'm afraid of what happens. If the content of the reply is true, and there is a time bomb such as Pyro General Pierra, the plan to surprise the lord's castle will inevitably go wrong.
Bell has already informed his high-ranking devil generals that within about 75 days of Siefer's ascension to the throne (that is, 2 months before the launch of "Dawn", he launched a surprise attack on the lord's castle, took Siffel in one fell swoop, and forced him to hand over the Book of Lords!
Coupled with the hidden ally who was hired heavily, he was sure of the whole plan······
But now there is a mysterious angel problem on the outside, and there is a suspected betrayer of Pierla inside.
"What's the best way to do it? Is it possible to test Sifel's reaction to Pierla? Bell pondered whether to summon Zack, the serpent general, to discuss it.
At this moment, on the table, the blood-red communication crystal suddenly flickered. In the flickering red light, the hurried voice of the Dusk General came from the crystal:
"Oh no, Bell-sama.
"The mysterious angel has just reappeared, and this time he used the [Killing Arrow] to shoot my subordinate, the seventh-order Nightmare Riding Demon, Mo Gulin."
Bell clenched his fists, slammed it on the table, and stood up:
"Tell me the coordinates and I'll teleport over immediately."
In the blood-colored crystal, there was the helpless sigh of the dusk general:
"No, Lord Bell. After the mysterious angel shot an arrow, he immediately teleported away. We simply don't have a chance to capture him. ”
Bell threw the letter in his hand onto the table,
"What an annoying angel, why didn't he go to the lord's castle to hunt Siphel!" Bell grumbled as he yelled at the Scarlet Crystal:
"How's the Viper's side? Did he sooth the information of the mysterious angel? ”
In the blood-colored crystal, the rough and heroic voice of the Dusk General already had a little tremor caused by fear:
"Lord Bell, what do you mean, the Crow Raider Captain Viper? When he entered the divination room, he said that it could take a long time to gather valuable information for divination. ”
"Hopefully, before then, all of my men won't be killed by angels." Bell snorted angrily.
His anger manifested itself in a real heat, causing the temperature of the room to rise sharply, the letters on the table to burn, and even the bronze walls, tables and chairs to turn red, faintly showing signs of melting.
As a former Hell Lord and legendary devil, the fury did not affect Bell's judgment, he grabbed the blood crystal and gave the order:
"At present, compared to the countless number of low-level demons, only hunting high-level devils is more valuable to the mysterious angels.
"From now on, General Dusk, you, General Blazing, General Corruption, and the three Ninth Order Devils, are all prohibited from operating in the open unless necessary. Put yourself inside the building and prevent becoming the target of a mysterious angel hunt.
"Pass on my order, in the Bronze Fortress complex, the sixth, seventh, and eighth rank high-ranking devil generals, unless the mission requires it, will definitely reduce the time spent outdoors!"
With that, Bell took a soft breath and calmed the fire burning in his chest.
Hopefully, this will stop the mysterious angel for a while.
··············
Deep in the Bronze Fortress complex is a hidden room.
The room is entirely paved with sparkling crystal. The walls and ceiling are made of countless transparent crystal bricks that form bizarre geometric patterns that evoke the icy blue of the polar regions. All the crystal clear crystals emit a faint light, filling the room with colorful and dreamy light and shadow.
This is the divination room that Bell spent a lot of money on.
In the middle of the beautiful crystal room, sat a man dressed in a gray and white mage robe, with pale skin and bloodless skin, a thin body, deep dark circles, and eyes deeply sunken into the sockets.
He raised his hands against the smooth crystal walls, gesticulating with unpredictable gestures and chanting the incantation of prophetic spells.
- It is one of the three commanders of the Black Crow Plunder Army, a seventh-order mage Viper.
In front of the poisonous snake was a pair of quaint and rusty full-body plate armor, which was stained with an obscure black liquid, which was the armor left by the seventh-order devil who died today. Prophecy spells must make connections with valuable objects in order to detect the target's information, and the Viper now uses items left behind by the devil who was killed by a mysterious angel.
As the incantation was pronounced, the serpent's gaze became scattered and hollow, and the crystal wall in front of him was emitting a brilliant white light, which became brighter and brighter as time passed, and it seemed that in the next moment he would be able to see into the fog of fate and spy on the truth.
This divination room can increase the effectiveness of prophetic divination spells. In divination here, the viper is equivalent to a level 99 mage. Even if the divination target has the ability to evade detection, shield prophecy and magic items, as long as the level is not too high, it is difficult to stop the detection of poisonous snakes.
But eventually, the flickering white light on the crystal wall gradually dimmed. On the smooth walls, a hazy mist appeared, and the fog rolled and flowed like a curtain to hide the truth.
"Prophecy spells still can't see through the fog. Even with the augmentation of the Divination Room, can't you detect any useful information? ”
Viper sighed rather disappointed:
"It's a pity that this divination room is comparable to the creation of an ancient magical civilization like Eldom."
He knew quite well that this divination room, which could greatly enhance the prophecy spell, could be described as invaluable, that is, only Bell, who had served as the lord of hell, could get it.
But even so, he still couldn't see through the fog and get a glimpse of the truth!
The snake's sunken eyes rolled, and his eyes were full of doubts, but he finally shook his head and sighed helplessly. After sighing, the viper chanted another incantation, unleashing mana towards the crystal wall.
The success of a prophecy spell is sometimes a probabilistic event, and you may be able to get useful information if you try it a few times.
How did he know that it was the Hell Lord, the will of the entire first layer of Hell, that was interfering with the result of distorting divination.
Sifer, who has obtained the [Plane Concealment], under the detection of the prophecy spell, will always be a mysterious shadow shrouded in fog and cannot be seen.
Unless······ Siefel is willing to offer unsolicited information – probably misinformation.
