Chapter 276 "One-Forty-Two" And the Chief

"It is an honor to meet you again, His Excellency Colin Iliad."

Although Abner's strength now far exceeds that of the Chief of Silver City, he still respects him quite a bit because of the impression from the original work.

After all, this is a true warrior who has dedicated everything to the residents of Silver City!

If he had not died, he might have had a chance to be promoted to "Glory One".

Seeing that Mr. "Tower" had no intention of harming the Silver City team, Colin Iliad, although still vigilant, responded politely and thoughtfully:

"Mr. Tower, welcome to set foot on this land abandoned by God again."

Then, he took the initiative to introduce the situation of "Nightmare City" to Abner:

"...According to the information, this abandoned city-state is actually a prison, where the giants kept captured prisoners and some dangerous items that were inconvenient to handle...

“After the Lord took back the authority of the giants, the functions here were continued.

“Until the glory of the Lord disappeared, the town was suddenly swallowed up by the ‘nightmare’ and became what it is now.

"I've explored this town before, but there seemed to be something terrible hidden in its deeper nightmare... I didn't go any further."

In other words, the "Skeleton Demon Wolf" may just be the "lord" of this abandoned city-state on the surface. Is there a high probability that something more troublesome is suppressed deep in the "nightmare"?

After stroking his chin and thinking for a moment, Abner used his "Insight" ability to observe the ruins surrounded on three sides by the "several" river, and then said thoughtfully:

"It is indeed possible that there is a troublesome guy hiding in there... However, we actually only need to block the entrance to the deeper nightmare and capture the 'Skeleton Wolf'... There is no need to alarm him!"

"Him?" Colin, Waite, and even "Shepherd" Elder Lovia were all shocked by this title and repeated it in unison.

And "Sun" Derrick, because of his habit in the Tarot Club, asked directly: "Mr. Tower, who is hiding in 'Nightmare Town'?"

"The identity of a being who can be imprisoned here by a 'giant' is naturally somewhat special..." Abner smiled, without showing off, and said directly, "He is the child of the ancient god Fregra, a 'magic wolf' The remnant souls of the dead are entrenched here.”

Abner's "messenger" is another child of Fregra, and he is naturally familiar with the children of the Demon Wolf King.

And because Fregra created multiple offspring through instinctive mating and reproduction, the extraordinary characteristics that were separated could not be controlled, resulting in a huge disparity in the strength of his children.

Those who are weak or even only at a low sequence level are often killed by Fregra as soon as they are born.

But powerful ones, like Antigonus, the "Mother of Heaven", or this one from "Nightmare Town", are born mythical creatures!

Unfortunately, after Fregra and Lilith died together, the kingdom of the Demon Wolf clan was divided up by other ancient gods. This one was also captured by the Giant King at that time, imprisoned in a prison town, and finally died unwillingly.

But as a born mythical creature, it was naturally not so easy for him to completely fall. In the end, during the cataclysm, the remaining soul turned into an evil spirit, dragging the entire prison town into a nightmare, which led to the current situation.

"Fregela... Demon Wolf King!" Colin recalled the relevant information, made a brief assessment, and then asked carefully, "Is there anything you need our help with?"

The reason why he personally brought this team that gathered the top forces of Silver City to the outside of "Nightmare Town" was not just to protect Derrick's safety, but to try his best to show goodwill to "Tower" as much as possible. In the hope that the other party and Mr. Fool behind him could see the value of their Silver City.

After all, only things of value are worth saving.

"I originally thought I could catch the 'Skeleton Wolf' by myself...but now things are obviously beyond my expectation...So, I really need your help." Abner could guess Colin I didn't want to refuse, so I directly told my plan.

"I need you to send one person into the 'Nightmare Town' and deliberately disturb the 'Skeleton Wolf' so that it tries to escape into a deeper nightmare... and I will set up a trap and wait for it."

Drive prey into a trap? A simple but practical plan is a common method for hunting... The only difficulty lies in setting the "trap".

Of course, as a person who drives away prey, I have to maintain a strong pressure, otherwise the "Skeleton Wolf" will not even think about escaping.

Colin thought for a moment and approved Abner's plan. However, it was really difficult for him to drive away the "Skeleton Wolf" by himself. After all, in the past, it took the cooperation of an entire team to drive the demon wolf away. A point of retreating into a deeper state of dreaming.

As for Lovia and Waite beside him, he still needs them and Derrick to check each other and prevent accidents, but he is not prepared to let them enter the nightmare together...

Otherwise, you have to guard against them, and it will be even more difficult to achieve your goal.

Abner easily "insighted" Colin's difficulty. After a moment's thought, he simulated the ability of the "ancient scholar" and pulled out the projection of the sealed artifact "1-42" of the "Church of the Night."

"1-42" is also known as crazy armor and bloodthirsty armor. It is stained with the blood of an ancient god before the cataclysm and has some of the abilities of the "Silver Knight".

Abner had had close contact with him before when he sneaked behind the Chanis Gate of St. Samuel's Cathedral.

And Leonard, who can only simply use this item with very little power, can severely damage the "Apostle of Desire" Jason Belial. If it is in the hands of a top "demon hunter" like Colin, he can naturally exert it. More power.

After briefly introducing the functions and side effects of "1-42", Abner said with a smile: "I will lend this item to you for use first... I will give you another thank you gift after it is successful."

Colin was about to say no, but he heard Mr. "Tower" in front of him continue: "Don't refuse, you should have heard Derrick say that 'equivalent exchange' is a rule set by Mr. Fool.

"Besides, I believe you need that gift very much."

Colin nodded thoughtfully after hearing these words.

He originally wanted to use this "contribution" to pray to Mr. Fool for the use of the "Insect of Time" to add a trump card for exploring the tomb.

But now Mr. "Tower" seems to have guessed his idea and has other plans, so naturally he no longer insists on his plan.

"Actually, there is no need for any other gifts of thanks. I just need to ask Mr. Tower to lend me this item one more time when I explore the mausoleum..."

Colin thought secretly after observing "1-42" with his "Demon Hunting Eyes" for a moment.

But when Colin got "1-42" and observed the blood of the ancient gods, the corners of Abner's mouth curled up slightly.

Because in his eyes, the fate of the chief of Silver City changed at this moment, and he gradually intersected with "Olmir".

Although there will be many dangers in the process, this is the only opportunity for the other party to be promoted to an angel.
