Chapter 1830 The Beginning of the Next Stage
Made a new discovery?
The upper evil spirit remained calm in his heart.
It has used almost the entire force and power of Etandin. If it still can't find any clues left by the 'broker', it will definitely advise its boss to leave immediately.
Because, there are only two possibilities for such an outcome.
First, the 'broker' has a power far beyond the imagination of it and its own boss, turning the world in front of it into its own back garden.
And the second?
It's a trap!
A trap that drags your boss here.
Although the time it takes to enter the dungeon world is almost insignificant compared to a huge city.
But sometimes a few minutes can change everything, let alone 1-3 hours.
According to the 'broker's' plan, it is not impossible for the entire huge city to be overturned.
Fortunately, it's not the worst of the two possibilities.
Without any adjustment, the upper evil spirit showed Gelsak's habitual solemn expression.
"What discovery?"
The superior evil spirit asked.
"It's a few strongholds."
"It should be the backup left behind by that envoy."
"We have arrested everyone and are interrogating them."
Wolff replied.
Then, the southern representative added another sentence.
"I will get the confession as soon as possible."
"Councillor Eitfen will not stand in the way on this matter."
Wolff likes and adapts to the current cooperative atmosphere very much. He does not want unnecessary misunderstandings to arise.
"It's good to have clues."
"As for Councilor Atfen?"
"I know him well."
The superior evil spirit answered like this, but the solemnity on his face did not diminish at all, but became more solemn.
Holleika, who had been standing nearby without speaking, stood up very cooperatively.
"Sir, what's wrong?"
Holleika asked.
"Our initiative is being lost and everything needs to be done as soon as possible."
"The person who didn't notice that we found him before, now with these strongholds being attacked, guess...how will that person react?"
The superior evil spirit answered.
Wolff was shocked.
He had just been thinking about how to stabilize the interior and did not think of anything more.
Now, with the reminder from the superior evil spirit, I immediately came back to my senses.
yes!
Although they didn't have many clues before, they still took the 'initiative'!
Now it is completely exposed.
What would that person do?
As he thought about it, Wolft's forehead began to sweat.
"Wooft."
Suddenly, a superior evil spirit called the southern representative's name.
"What's the matter, Your Excellency?"
Wolff bowed and asked after coming back to his senses.
"Be careful, the real battle has just begun!"
"Convey my words to Etfen intact."
The superior evil spirit ordered.
"Yes, Your Excellency."
Wolft nodded immediately and did not dodge, but directly contacted Representative Aitfen.
Southern representatives did not feel they needed to dodge.
After all, both sides are now allies.
What's more, they are an organization themselves.
Looking at Wolft's actions, the upper-level evil spirit remained calm and chuckled inwardly.
Subtlety is the scariest thing.
And is there any ability that is more useful than its [Evil Spirit Intuition] and [Illusion]?
The longer the contact time, the more it can grasp the other person's heart and guide it from the side.
There won't be any abnormalities or alertness.
In all cases, the parties involved will only think that is what they want to do.
Even if he is guilty of serious sins, he does not even know it.
The reason why evil spirits are called evil spirits.
It's because of this extremely terrifying point.
pity……
Useless against your own Boss.
It has never seen a person who is as alert and calm as his Boss. That kind of vigilance has already gone beyond the scope of ordinary people and reached a certain extraordinary level.
Whether it is talent or nurture, the upper evil spirits don’t know.
It only knows that its Boss can sleep with his eyes open if necessary.
Soon, the communication array was set up.
The phantom of Atfen, the nominal representative of the southern congressmen, appeared in the room.
"Good morning, Gersak."
The other party still gave friendly greetings.
However, the attitude of the superior evil spirit is extremely cold.
"I don't want to talk to you. Wolft will tell you everything."
The superior evil spirit said this.
Then, he really shut up and stopped talking.
The high-ranking evil spirits who have consulted Gelsak's memory know very well what kind of existence Atfen, the representative of the southern congressmen, is.
In addition to being labeled as the Smiling Tiger, the other party also possesses one of the strongest powers among the southern congressmen. He is also tough, careful, and wise. Every dilapidated fishing village can be operated by the other party into a huge port.
For such a guy, higher-level evil spirits don't want to deal with him.
Even if it thinks it can play Gelsak well, who can guarantee that it won't be discovered by the other party?
Therefore, the superior evil spirits adopted a strategy of ‘alienation’ from the very beginning.
Let the other party mistakenly think that it wants to escape.
But he had to be chained here, fighting against the non-existent ‘one’.
In fact, the superior evil spirit's strategy was quite successful.
Seeing the performance of 'Gersak', Etfen did not show any suspicion. He just smiled politely and began to ask Wolft. After hearing Wolft's report, what was the southern congressman's report? The representative waved Wolft to leave, and similarly, Holleika temporarily left the room after asking the superior evil spirit.
"Tell me, why are you looking for me specifically?"
"Don't use the excuse you just made."
"Everything you can think of, I can think of, everyone is not a fool."
Atfen restrained his false friendliness slightly and asked simply.
"I need a boat out of Cheka Bay."
The upper evil spirit said in a deep voice.
"Are you joking?"
Atfen's shadow frowned.
"No, I'm serious."
"From the beginning, I thought your confrontation was futile."
"And now, I think so even more."
The upper evil spirit took a deep breath and roared as if to vent.
"Calm down, Gersak."
"The current situation is favorable to us!"
Atfen frowned and persuaded Gersak.
"favorable?"
"Think about what you have gained!"
"It's been a week!"
"What did you find?"
"Then, have you ever thought about what you are going to face?"
The superior evil spirit continued to roar, as if he didn't even hear the persuasion.
Looking at Gersak in this state, Atfen suddenly had an idea flash in his mind.
"You've seen 'the one'!"
"yes!"
"You must have met that one."
"Otherwise, how could you be so frightened?"
"The Gelsak I know is not like you. Only the Gelsak who was frightened would become so cowardly as a mouse!"
Atfen blurted out, and then, the more he spoke, the more certain he became.
"It is better to be as timid as a mouse than to die!"
"Besides, you think death is the end?"
"That one is far more cunning and cruel than you think. Do you think you can get anything from those prisoners?"
"I'm telling you, stop being delusional!"
"Guess...could these prisoners be a trap?"
When he said this, a malicious smile appeared on the upper evil spirit's face.
Atfen's frown deepened.
Then--
boom!
A huge explosion came from Aitefen, so that Aitefen's shadow became trembling.
Atfen's face suddenly became distorted and ugly.
The upper evil spirit laughed out loud.
Hahaha.
Amidst such laughter, Atfen disappeared temporarily.
The upper evil spirit continued to laugh several times before starting to think seriously.
Of course, this is also a performance.
Everything is as Boss thought.
The ‘broker’s’ habitual strategy of ‘one light and one dark’.
The 'captives' that can be found will only be traps, and will remind the real and valuable 'hidden children' to evacuate.
or……
Simply destroy it.
"What a troublesome opponent!"
The superior evil spirit commented like this.
For an opponent like the 'Broker', the simplest way it can think of is to implement a beheading plan before the opponent launches his plan.
besides?
There is no other way.
Once you let the other party start their layout, you have no way of starting.
Because you don't even know what the other person wants.
Moreover, even implementing a beheading plan would be difficult.
The 'broker' is not a brave man.
He will definitely think clearly about his own safety, and he will also make careful arrangements.
The upper-level evil spirit, who was thinking about how to attack the 'broker' directly, raised his head after Etfen's shadow reappeared.
Atfen is the same as before.
However, the upper evil spirit can detect the horror in the opponent's eyes.
Obviously, the other party encountered a situation beyond imagination.
And that's what he wants.
"understand?"
The superior evil spirit asked.
This time, Atfen didn't speak immediately.
After a few seconds of silence, the southern congressman spoke.
"Do you have a place to stay in the Southern Islands?"
the other party asked.
"It's not big, but it can accommodate a few people safely."
The upper evil spirit replied.
"Then count me in."
"I will provide the necessary ships, sailors and supplies."
After saying this, Atfen seemed to be a deflated rubber ball, and his whole body slumped there. He murmured to himself in a low voice: "Cheka Bay... is gone."
…
Cheka Bay disappeared from Etentin's map in explosions and flames.
In the afternoon, Etantinople received such news.
Suddenly, people were surprised and frightened.
He even began to severely reprimand the gunpowder factory for its inaction.
That's right, what the royal family of Atantin announced to the outside world was the leakage of gunpowder from the gunpowder factory.
As for the real reason?
Only a few people know.
And these people who knew it were all tense and felt as if they were facing a powerful enemy.
For example: Privy Bishop Motor of the Temple of War was invited by Qin Ran to join the game.
The Privy Councilor had just received the message.
From one of two privy bishops, he became the only privy bishop.
His old friend, the archbishop's rival, was killed by a sudden explosion while watching the torture of 'that' prisoner.
Including the dozen or so elite priests who accompanied them, they all returned to the paradise of the God of War.
what happened?
This is what Motor wants to know.
Therefore, he borrowed the magic of the ‘God of War’: Eye of War.
He hoped to see some clues.
But nothing was found.
He could only blame the sight of a giant pothole.
Here, it was supposed to be Cheka Bay, a port so wealthy that even Etantino was the envy of it.
Now……
Only the crystals formed at high temperatures remain.
Everything was vaporized in an instant.
Including those layers of secret protection.
Of course, it's not that secret protection is ineffective.
Otherwise, not many people would survive.
But among them, there is no one of them.
Damn it!
After finding nothing, Motor, who was obviously a member of the 'Secret Order of Silent Night', slapped the table angrily.
Afterwards, the Privy Council began to think about how to minimize the impact.
Cheka Bay, that is the focus of the Temple of War.
The wealth brought by the port is well known.
War Temple is no exception to the need for wealth.
Therefore, another Privy Council went there to build another cathedral of the Temple of War, and continuously input the vitality of the Temple of War into Chika Bay.
Compared to Etantinople, which has become a foregone conclusion.
That's where it's more suitable for investment.
This is the consensus of everyone.
More than half of the war temple's power is there.
It's all gone now!
It is not only the loss of the most high-end combat power, but also the loss of the backbone force that is the most terrifying.
Motor was horrified to find that the Temple of War suddenly entered a stage of inactivity.
The vacancy must be filled quickly!
As Motor thought, he naturally thought of the young knight: Gino.
The other person is loyal.
Young and energetic.
As for strength?
Your Majesty's gift is enough to solve everything.
Moreover, if the other party sets an example, it will be enough to attract people's attention and give him time to deal with the loss.
"Tell Gino to come see me."
Motor said to a deacon on duty.
"Yes, sir."
The deacon immediately bowed and left.
A moment later, young Gino appeared in front of Motor.
He has a relatively handsome appearance and is dressed in a smooth knight's armor. He walks neatly and gracefully. The aura of the glorious sword at his waist gives the young man a sharp but unforced aura.
Motor nodded silently.
very good!
He needs such a chess piece.
"Kid, your performance is amazing."
"So, you are worthy of this honor."
"I will arrange for you to receive my Lord's 'blessing', and you will become a truly powerful warrior!"
Motor, who had made up his mind, spoke.
He spoke his mind directly.
Then, just as he expected, the young man in front of him froze in place.
"Am I qualified?"
The young man asked with a trembling tone.
"certainly."
"No one is more qualified than you."
"Go get ready."
"Tomorrow at noon is the time for your 'baptism'."
Motor said with a smile, and there was no doubt in his words that Gino did not refute again.
The young knight thanked Motor again before turning and leaving.
When he returned to his room, the young knight had a gloomy look in his eyes.
Can't delay it any longer...
really,
Do you still want to do this?
I don't want to either.
I just want to survive.
Tangled, anxious, hesitant.
The layers were like a web, leaving young Gino wondering what to do.
But his hand involuntarily grasped the [Sword of Glory (Replica)].
next moment--
Clang!
The long sword was drawn out and slashed straight towards the scabbard.
Snapped!
With a crisp sound, the scabbard was cut off directly.
An unknown black color began to spread out.
