Chapter 617: Peeking Macaque
The City of Gold is becoming more and more depressed.
The auction of Nantian Society was held very successfully.
Merchants of all sizes in the city thought that this would be the starting point for the recovery of the Golden City.
However, the reality is quite the opposite, and since the end of the auction, more rumors have spread in the City of Gold!
……
"[Disasters are piled up, and there will be a catastrophe in the Golden City]."
"[Cao Yingbo has run away, and the Nantian Society has also begun to reduce its manpower, which is a precursor to great turmoil. 】”
"[The previous ground movement was due to a problem with the foundation of the cracked space, and the Golden City was destined to disappear."
The rumor also started out of nowhere, but it spread more and more violently in the city.
In the end, the Alchemy Palace also had to stand up to appease the public.
……
The way to refute rumors in the Alchemy Palace is very simple and rude.
They admit that the City of Gold is indeed mixed with two or three scourges, but soon, the scourge will be wiped out.
They are well prepared.
The thousand-year-old heritage of the Alchemy Palace cannot be shaken by just a few calamities.
……
As soon as this rather imposing statement came out, it did bluff many people.
After all, the image of the Alchemy Palace in the inner world has always been big and strong.
Even if there is a problem with the backer now, it is too big to fail.
Otherwise, without the alchemy hall, wouldn't the alchemy industry in the inner world collapse by half.
……
As for the second rumor, there is no need to refute it at all.
Clear-eyed people wouldn't believe that Nantian Society was running away, and they didn't see that the true legend was still there!
As for the third rumor, the Alchemy Palace swore that the relevant experiments had been suspended, and [Earth Movement] would never appear again.
……
It's a pity that as soon as the words of the Alchemy Hall landed, the [Earth Movement] happened, and the scale was even larger, and the entire Golden City was shaking.
This time, the refutation of rumors has completely backfired.
At the moment when the earth stopped, many transcendents left the Golden City.
I am afraid that I will go slowly, and the golden gate will be closed again.
……
Although the ground movement only happened once, the collapse of trust was so terrible.
In just a few days, the flow of people in the Golden City has been depressed by 1/3.
There are fewer people coming to do business, and the merchants are starting to sit still.
Even if you are reluctant to give up the industry in the Golden City, you have to think about it more.
……
Then there is the division and transfer of assets.
For businessmen, security is more important.
With the loss of merchants, more and more people are starting to leave the Golden City.
Even those who have not yet left are constantly waiting.
In just a few days, the city of gold plummeted, and the rats in the sewers dared to walk on the road.
……
"What's going on over there Zhuang Siyao?"
"The remaining two Timothy treasures are in our possession."
"Without the integration of new treasures into the aptamer, it is impossible to stimulate the [taboo]."
In the Alchemy Palace, 20 alchemy masters gathered together.
This time, it was not just Fabian and Alesso who held the meeting.
Instead, all the Great Alchemy Grandmasters participated.
Of course, this definitely needs to exclude Zhuang Siyao and others, as well as several alchemy masters who are in the outside world.
……
"Still can't get in touch."
"That lab is completely locked down."
"But since [Taboo] has not been extricated, it can only mean that Zhuang Siyao and they have no big problems."
"Perhaps the previous restlessness is a sign of success."
An alchemy grand master reported the latest situation, Zhuang Siyao and they were missing.
But fortunately, the breath of life is still there, and people are at least alive.
……
After confirming that Zhuang Siyao and the others were still alive, all the alchemy grandmasters present finally breathed a sigh of relief.
They really wanted the madwoman to die, but not now.
……
"Ladies and gentlemen, the hearts of the people of the Golden City have been completely disrupted, and their credit has also suffered a heavy blow."
"The transaction volume has fallen below new lows one after another."
"If you don't take measures, even if the Golden City can be saved, it will be impossible to return to the top in the future."
A certain alchemy grand master who maintained his independence spoke on behalf of the few beside him.
They only cared about the benefits that Alchemy City could bring to them, and they didn't want to toss around.
……
"Xu Tianbai, it's useless."
"People's hearts are scattered, and it is not an overnight thing to want to clean it up again."
"I know you don't want to get involved in our plans."
"But if you want to keep the Golden City, those calamities must die."
"They started all the riots, especially the guy who can manipulate people."
Fabian gritted his teeth in hatred, could it be that bastard, how could he spend 1,500 top-grade spirit stones to buy the [Hand of Timos].
It's a big loss!
……
"Yes, we will help in the hunt for the Calamity."
"But we need to borrow all kinds of treasures in the treasure house."
"Fabian, Alonso, you don't think that's unreasonable, do you?"
Xu Tianbai stared at the other two groups of people, but these guys dared to say a word.
They immediately left behind all their interests in the Alchemy Hall and left the Golden City directly.
Why are you only allowed to reap the benefits?
We also ask for a division of the property.
……
"Yes, Xu Tianbai, your request is very reasonable."
Alonso was the first to make a statement.
But at the same time, he said that they now have more urgent things to do, so they will not participate in the siege of the disaster star.
……
Fabian's eyes glowed green when he said this.
Bullshit "important things", it's not that he's busy digging into his own corners.
But considering that these guys will only lag behind after joining, Fabian and they don't say much.
In the end, the 14 Alchemy Grand Masters, including Fabian and others, will start a siege against the Calamity.
The time was set for three days later.
……
"Fabian, is there a result on Master Wang's side?"
After the meeting was adjourned, the eight-member gang of Fabian and others reunited.
Since buying the [Hand of Timos], Fabian and the others have carried out hundreds of tests on the [Hand of Timos] with the heart of a villain, for fear of buying a fake.
As a result, they tried all kinds of means, but they did not find that there was a problem with the [Hand of Timos].
Could it be that the Viscount of the Empire really didn't do anything?
……
Just in case, they asked Master Wang to help with divination.
With Master Wang's attainments in the Third Heavenly Technique, as long as the [Hand of Timos] has a quality problem, it is absolutely impossible to find it.
……
"Master Wang has confirmed that [Timos's Hand] does not have any safety hazards."
"Not only that, but it's the best maintained."
"It seems that the Imperial Viscount is quite interested in this treasure."
"But it also shows that the creator will not give up on the inheritance."
Fabian's words reassured everyone.
Since Master Wang said that there is no problem, then there must be no problem.
As for the immortal devotion to the Creator's inheritance, this is all a clear thing.
Otherwise, why did he stay in the City of Gold instead of choosing to leave?
……
"Three days later, Master Wang will sacrifice to the [Sky Macaque]."
"The one who loves the fossilized heads of all kinds of intelligent life."
"In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, we have prepared a total of 70 skull fossils of intelligent life this time, and the number has made up to 10,000."
"That's all the stock that's publicly available in the market."
The small group of eight people began to discuss the various details of the sacrifice, trying not to make any mistakes.
They only have one chance and they must not fail.
……
The Macaque is one of the four inexplicable things that exist.
Its name is Peep into the sky, and its ability can be imagined.
As long as the sacrifice is successful, the aptamer will never be able to escape.
Thankfully, the [Inexplicable Things] disdain to accept blood sacrifices, and only like some special things.
Otherwise, if that one likes to eat people's brains, with the current troubled situation of the Alchemy Palace, he really doesn't dare to sacrifice.
……
In the Inner Ring World, the only thing that really hunts down [Inexplicable Things] is the Sword of Judgment.
Even the top ten super spell academies occasionally deal with these guys, and they are not on the same page.
The world is not just about fighting and killing, but also about human feelings.
There are no vital interests, everyone usually shouts slogans, and who will really contribute?
……
The great masters of the Alchemy Hall were in a meeting, and the calamity stars were not idle.
In a trading house that was beginning to be abandoned, Timos once again met with the puppeteer.
"Puppeteer, why hasn't that one shown up yet?"
"You can't be like you and plan to sneak around and hide behind the scenes, right?"
……
Timos unceremoniously masturbates the puppeteer.
I've never seen this guy in person.
It was normal for Timos to have a grudge in his heart.
……
What's more, the last time they cooperated, the puppeteer didn't help him buy the [Hand of Timos].
Now that the remaining two treasures have fallen into the hands of Fabian and the others, it will be very difficult to do.
You can't steal it again, right?
Fabian: They're not stupid.
……
"Don't be impatient!"
"Kim Miao-jin will definitely appear!"
"Timos, we're in a pretty bad situation right now."
"According to the information I received, the Heavenly Mechanic in the Alchemy Hall is going to perform a big sacrifice."
"Whether it's me or you, it's all going to be found this time."
"Especially you, with those two treasures as locks, you can accurately locate them."
The puppeteer first informs Timos of the bad news.
Timos's face immediately became more ugly.
……
If Timos was talking about the previous one, he was still a little sure of suppressing the induction of the other two treasures on himself.
Then after the one day the pilot made a move, it became a sure thing that he was positioned.
At that time, what he will face is the all-out siege of the Alchemy Palace.
Even if Timos was confident in his current strength, he didn't think he could single out the entire Alchemy Palace.
……
"Puppeteer, since you already know the other party's plan."
"There must be a way to deal with it."
"But I think it's better for everyone to talk openly and honestly before we start the next collaboration."
"Like, what exactly are you planning? What does that Kim Miaozhen want? ”
"I think it's better to make it clear first."
Timos stared at the "puppet" opposite him very seriously, he had something to confirm.
……
"Hahaha, Timos, you've sensed it."
"Yes, you should have acquired some memories of Timos by now!"
"Even the truth of Timos's inheritance, you should have figured it out."
"Now you are the real [Timos]!"
The puppeteer unceremoniously reveals the truth, but Timos is unmoved, still staring at the puppeteer.
……
"Well, I guess you guessed it."
"That's right, what I want is the source of [Earth Movement]."
"It was a [doll] made by Timos himself."
"It's a pity that Timos's proudest work turned into a [taboo] and killed him."
"Once the [Taboo] is born, as long as it is not completely destroyed, it will always exist!"
"Not only that, but no matter how horrific the injuries it suffers, it will slowly recover."
In order to gain Timothy's trust, the puppeteer finally begins a showdown.
……
Born by the power of the Lord of Original Sin, the Taboo is a product of the Creator.
Even after the Creator dies, it instinctively targets the Creator's intelligent race.
Therefore, as long as the trace of the [Forbidden Spirit] is discovered, the intelligent civilization will try its best to eradicate it to prevent it from getting out of control.
……
But for some reason, the taboo that killed Timos was not completely destroyed, although it suffered a heavy blow.
It finally fell into the hands of the Alchemy Palace, and has been "studied" ever since.
……
"Zhuang Siyao wants to gain the power of [Forbidden Spirit], I want to too!"
"Since I'm a puppeteer, then the [puppet] created by the creator himself, I naturally won't let it go."
"As for what Jin Miaozhen wanted, it was another puppet!"
"In order to appease the [Taboo], the Alchemy Hall often sacrifices some dolls to it."
"This is also the reason why Mu Tianyang will develop the puppet industry."
The puppeteer has completely confessed that now they need to work together.
But in the end, the winner will only be him.
……
"I see, no wonder the source of [Earth Movement] makes me instinctively terrified."
"But that's a [taboo] that can kill the creator, and you're not afraid of messing with yourself, puppeteer?"
Timos doesn't like the puppeteer at all, but that doesn't stop him from hoping the puppeteer will hold the taboo.
Otherwise, the one who will be hunted down by the taboo is Timos.
……
As he gained more and more inheritance, Timos instinctively sensed fear and uneasiness.
And this fear was completely irresistible, as if it was destined to drown him.
Now Timos is completely enlightened.
His "resurrection" will inevitably lead to the awakening of the taboo.
Since the puppeteer is willing to help him carry the thunder, why not?
……
"Timos, you really are a very eccentric person!"
"According to my investigation, your original name was Wang Damao."
"You were originally born in an ordinary mountain village, and later worked as a coolie on the docks of a small country."
"By chance, you obtained the kidney of Timos, and from then on you started another life."
"You should know very well that you are not [Timos]."
"Even if you have the inheritance and memory of Timos, and even the genes of life."
The puppeteer finally asked the question that had puzzled him for a long time.
He really couldn't understand why Wang Damao would give up on himself and see himself as a different person.
This is not as simple as the schizophrenia of ordinary people.
……
"Puppeteer, your life should be smooth sailing!"
"Maybe you were born with everything."
"But I'm different, I've suffered a lot, I've struggled at the bottom, and I'm desperate to change everything."
"Obtaining the Kidney of Timos was the beginning of my destiny."
"But man's greed and ambition will never be satisfied."
"After entering the inner world, I found that even with [Timos's Kidney], I was still very ordinary, and I was still trampled under everyone's feet."
"It turns out that even if I change the world, my status still hasn't changed."
Timos spoke calmly about his experience, as if it were another man's story.
……
"At first, I just thought that what I had obtained was an ordinary alchemy treasure."
"But after I learned that the Timos series of treasures were incarnated by the remains of the creator Timos, everything changed."
"The remains of the Creator, what a powerful treasure this is, how can it only have such a little power."
"The reason why I didn't become strong enough must be because I didn't completely fuse this treasure."
"But how exactly can we fully merge?"
"I thought about it and finally got an answer."
"That is to transform oneself into Timothy."
"Why did I get the Kidney of Timoth? This is fate, because I am the reincarnation of Timothy. ”
"I am destined to reclaim the power of my past life."
……
Timos continued to speak so calmly, but the puppeteer was dumbfounded.
He seems to finally understand why "Wang Damao" became an apcommodator.
Because it was not Timos's remains that chose "Wang Da Mao", but "Wang Da Mao" himself wanted to become Timos.
If this is no longer a good match, it will be unreasonable.
……
"Wang Damao, what a local name, what a tragic life."
"And as long as I give it up, I am the reincarnation of the Creator, with a glorious past and a bright future."
"A mortal can still recognize a thief as a father for the sake of glory and wealth."
"I just got back [my past life], isn't that a great crime?"
Timos's set of vibrating theories directly put the puppeteer in order.
The puppeteer instinctively wants to raise the bar, it doesn't matter if your past life is true or not, but how can you let [previous life] cover [this life].
Everyone is living in the moment, it's good for you to borrow the corpse to return the soul.
……
Perhaps it was a change in perception, and in the eyes of the puppeteer, Timos began to exude an air of decay and old age.
If it was said that the new object was old before, now the old object is polished.
The two are very different in nature.
……
The conflict of ideas made the two fall silent.
If it weren't for the fact that Jin Miaozhen hadn't arrived yet, they would really want to leave.
But this time it was an alliance between the three of them, and it was a matter of life and death in the future.
They can only wait!
After all, Jin Miao can really fight, the key is that there is no conflict of interest.
……
Timos wanted to gather all the parts and "resurrect" them completely.
The puppeteer needs Timoth's resurrection to allow [Taboo] to fully awaken.
And Jin Miaozhen can get the desired puppet after the puppeteer takes away the [taboo].
The three of them form a perfect closed loop, and it is simply unreasonable not to cooperate once.
……
However, the two who were waiting for it didn't know that Jin Miao was really praying to [God] at this time.
And this behavior has been going on for a long time.
