Chapter 243 Early Morning
Seeing Miss Messenger disappear, Klein thought about which demigod he could contact in a short time, but found that there was none, so he could only turn his attention back to the question of what to do next:
"The 'broadcast' across the city just now will definitely allow 'Sea King' Yan Cottman to search for traces of 'Sea God' and his followers while searching for Hermoschuin. It is easy to be noticed when going out in the middle of the night, so, I can only stay here and wait for the dawn.
"Tomorrow's boat can't be used. If there is an attack on the way, it is likely to involve the people on the boat, and this itself is not concealed enough.
"Well... Summon the underwater creatures, leave by whale boat, use the deserted islands and reefs along the way to rest and transfer, and arrive at the next port...Since the 'Orange Light' said that it must be in close contact to detect that quality, then it is Amplifying the induction of the "Mother Goddess of Desire" by relying on rituals or believers will not exceed a city, or even a block, which can also explain why I only encountered traps when I arrived in Oravi.
"As long as you leave Bayam, you should get rid of the 'watching'..."
When Klein's thoughts gradually became clear, the radio receiver suddenly picked up another signal!
He hurriedly approached, quickly recorded, and then translated into corresponding letters with the help of codebook to form words.
Not long after, the contents of that telegram signal appeared on the paper, with dark ink:
"I saw you."
I saw you... Klein felt a sudden chill in his heart as he read this sentence.
…………
Bayam, in an ordinary residential building not far from the Governor's Mansion.
In the spacious basement, candles burned quietly, casting a dim yellow light around.
"Silver Viper" Odell had already taken off the hooded robe, looked at the middle-aged man opposite him slightly tremblingly, and said in an unsteady voice:
"Lord Senor, I don't know why Hermoschuin's real hiding place is known."
Senior was wearing an old three-cornered hat, with sunken eye sockets, and a frighteningly pale face, more like an evil spirit than a human being. He raised his hand to wipe the two black beards on his lower lip, and his light brown eyes were cold He swept across Odell's face, making the famous adventurer lower his head.
After silently staring at the other party for a few seconds, the "Admiral of Blood" in a pair of white trousers and a red coat said in a low voice:
"Less than three minutes after that telegram, there was a notification that spread throughout the city, and the content was part of the telegram.
"I suspect that another force has begun to pay attention to radio, and obtained our codebook from Old Quinn."
"Yes, yes, it must be so!" "Silver Coin Viper" Odell hastily echoed, hoping that "Admiral of Blood" would not think that the great scientist Hermoschine was lost because of his ineffectiveness.
He knew very well how cruel this pirate general was to his subordinates who did wrong!
Senior glanced at Odell, sneered and said:
"But either way, you failed.
"If you, and your mistress, hadn't given me so much pleasure, I'd have had you yank your bowels out!
"Go and send a telegram to tell the eavesdropper who may or may not exist that I saw him, and let him spend the night in fear and anxiety. This is the only thing you can do now."
Odell breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, looked fearfully at the "Admiral of Blood" and the bloody altar on the table behind him, and replied respectfully:
"Yes, Master Senor!"
He had just thought that he would be part of the sacrifice.
When Odell exited the basement, "Admiral of Blood" Senor turned his head to look at the altar covered with human heads, internal organs, limbs and blood, and said with a more respectful attitude than when Odell faced him:
"Master Jax, was the ceremony successful?"
"If you succeed, wait for God to respond." A cold and emotionless voice came from the curtain hanging around the altar.
Then, the curtain seemed to have life force,
The left and right sides are rolled up, knotted smoothly, and landed in the center of the altar.
A slightly transparent figure appeared next to the altar at some point, his complexion was brownish, the wrinkles on his face formed deep furrows, his white hair was as thin as autumn leaves, he seemed to have lived for many years .
He looked at the candle light humbly, his brown eyes motionless.
"Admiral of Blood" Senior didn't dare to speak again, and stood beside Lord Jax, waiting for the altar to change.
Suddenly, the candle's flame takes on various colors, each of which seems to correspond to a different desire of the beholder.
The human head, internal organs, limbs and blood on the altar are stacked layer by layer without wind, and they are in a state of melting candles.
Not long after, they formed a short tree of flesh and blood, with uneven surfaces, like the shell of a walnut.
thump! thump! thump!
Inside the tree of flesh and blood, there seemed to be a beating heart, strong and powerful.
When Senior could hardly stand the noise, the tree of flesh and blood withered, rotted into mud, and spread out.
Where it originally existed, there remained a flesh-colored, wet, sticky ball.
Soon, the little ball grew limbs and a head, and turned into a palm-sized humanoid creature.
Its face has no eyes, no nose, no ears, only a hole-like mouth.
From the mouth, the gray mist was spit out, and then retracted, many times in a row without stopping.
The old man named Jakes recited the "Mother Tree of Desire" piously and fanatically, and grabbed the weird villain with his hand.
Without a sound, all the candlelight was extinguished, but for the "wraiths" with night vision ability, this did not affect their ability to see things.
"Admiral of Blood" Senor stared at Jakes, and heard the adult say in a low voice:
"For this ceremony, we have prepared for too long, and God's gift can help us sense the current existence in a larger range.
"Then, we can use the glasses made by members of the Life School to find him accurately!"
While speaking, Jakes took out a monocle from his inner pocket. It looked the same as normal, but it shone with a white brilliance in the dark.
"Master Jax, what shall we do next?" Senior asked respectfully.
Jakes with deep wrinkles thought for a few seconds and said:
"After dawn, go to find the target.
"If he has a strong helper, we will monitor him to prevent him from getting out of the sensing range, and then patiently wait for Lord Siua to arrive.
"If he doesn't have a protector, and he is weak, then we will do it directly."
When he heard the word Siea, "Admiral of Blood" Senor's forehead visibly twitched. It seemed that just the name of that lord could make people fearful.
He took a slow breath and said:
"Yes, Lord Jax!"
After answering, Senior instinctively touched the necklace hanging on his chest.
The necklace appears to be made of sterling silver and the pendant is an ancient looking coin.
…………
Frightened by the telegram, Klein didn't sleep much for the rest of the night. When dawn dawned, he sacrificed his suitcase, wallet, and most of his cash above the gray mist.
After dealing with the traces, he went to the front desk of the hotel to pay the bill. He took the carriage to the edge of Bayam, went out of the city and went up the mountain, as if he was going to the cemetery prepared for the local aborigines.
Halfway through the walk, he suddenly turned into the woods, intending to walk straight to the edge of the cliff, where there was already a huge sea creature waiting below!
Birds sang and insects scrambled in the woods, and sometimes small wild animals ran by. Klein walked very fast stepping on the ground with humus.
Along the way, he could see mushrooms growing after the rain, rags and other garbage left by some Bayam citizens from picnics, everything was so peaceful, accompanied by the fresh air in the morning.
A leaf fluttered down, Klein didn't stop walking, and easily passed by.
At this moment, the speed of the leaf suddenly increased, and even turned a strange corner, sticking to his mouth and nose.
It was like the palm of an adult, firmly covering Klein's nose and mouth, making him unable to breathe at all.
Whoosh whoosh!
The branches of the trees fell off and shot at Klein like sharp arrows.
And the debris, paper and other things left over from the picnic also had their own vitality, connected together, turned into an impenetrable strange net, and "jumped" over at once!
