Chapter 1183 A Heterogeneous Gathering of Demons Dancing Wildly

What Hao Ren asked the demon hunters to investigate was the information that survived the destruction of the Olympus "god system" in ancient Greece.

According to the information he has already obtained, some of the upper-class members of the Olympus family seemed to have learned the secrets of the "Original Sin of God-killing" and "Ultimate Absolution" through some channels before their destruction, and conducted a series of "anti-god-killing" crimes. Vivian conducts research on "idol worship", and these researches are very likely to reveal more secrets about the ultimate plan of the goddess of creation, or at least allow Hao Ren to understand the activities of aliens in ancient times.

The gods of Olympus have disappeared in the long river of history, and the remaining ruins are floating in the narrow space at the edge of the main material world. Finding them is like looking for a needle in a haystack, but there is one place that still holds the secrets of the ancient times. , that is the Witcher Library located in the Corpus Sanctuary. Those vast files recorded information on every alien race destroyed by the demon hunters, including those of the ancient Greek "gods". This is what Hao Ren asked Bai Huo to do.

"I will go to Corpus to find you immediately," Hao Ren immediately replied, "You have all the information ready..."

"No, I'm in the city where you live now. Just come to XXXX to find me."

Bai Huo reported an address that sounded very familiar. Hao Ren was stunned when he heard it: "Cultural Center? Why are you here?"

Bai Huo maintained his usual cool and steady voice: "There is a comic exhibition here..."

Hao Ren: "..."

With a huge desire to complain, he took Vivian and Lily to the cultural center Bai Huo mentioned. As expected, a grand comic exhibition was being held here. Hao Ren didn't have much experience visiting comic exhibitions, but he had seen it a few times. Anyway, after buying a ticket and entering the venue, he felt like a chaotic dance of demons, men and women dressed as various game and animation characters, and various stalls scattered around the exhibition hall. The huge indoor venue looked extremely chaotic, and there were many high-quality cosplayers among them - Hao Ren was in a trance and thought he was back at his work site.

Yes, he has seen a lot about all kinds of weird races, and what he has seen is all true!

Hao Ren spent a lot of effort to find the white fire. In fact, he didn't find it, it was Lily who smelled it on the tip of her nose. Bai Huo is really at home in this place. She can even wear her usual battle uniform and walk around the venue with a head of silver hair. Anyway, there are more people in strange costumes than her. When Hao Ren found Bai Huo, the girl was lingering in front of several stalls carrying a huge bag. The bag was filled with various peripheral gadgets she had just bought, as well as her Demon Hunter dagger...

Hao Ren couldn't believe how Hasselblad managed to educate such a magical disciple. Therefore, closed education indeed has its drawbacks, and it is especially easy to teach autism and nerds...

"Ah, I've been waiting for you for a long time," Bai Huo greeted Hao Ren immediately after seeing Hao Ren. "Since you haven't come, I'll go shopping for a while."

Hao Ren said with a dull face: "Is it really okay for you to just hang out at the comic exhibition like this? What about your job as a demon hunter?"

Unexpectedly, there was no embarrassment on Bai Huo's face at all, and she smiled calmly: "I'm really not just hanging out, I have a job here. Look at that -"

The demon hunter girl raised her hand and pointed to a corner of the venue. Hao Ren looked in the direction of her finger and saw several men and women in cosplay costumes chatting there. One of the men was keenly aware of the onlookers, and he immediately became alert. He looked over, his face slightly unnatural when he saw the white fire.

"The two werewolves are genuine. The one wearing a witch suit next to her is a witch who was once Dracula's mistress. The other one is wearing a knight's full-body armor. The armor is empty inside. It is the armor of a famous knight. God knows which crazy wizard inspired this armor, or simply possessed it," Bai Huo smacked his lips, "If you look around again, you will see a lot of 'real things'."

Hao Ren looked around in shock, and finally found some clues.

Many people were secretly looking at this place. Almost all the "high-quality cosplayers" appeared together, and some of the exhibitors who looked like ordinary people were not so ordinary: they were cautiously keeping a distance from Bai Huo.

Lily shrugged her nose. In fact, she smelled some "close relatives" in the air just now, but she didn't say it out loud.

"How many genuine products are there?" Hao Ren asked in a low voice.

"At least one-third are genuine, and the other one-third are their servants and dependents," Bai Huo shrugged, "The rest are ordinary people. I'm not here just for fun, part of the purpose is It’s to monitor this event.”

"This is a gathering of aliens," Hao Ren touched his chin, "Is this also a new change after the truce between the demon hunters and aliens and the establishment of the Shadow Council? A coalition action of supernatural creatures?"

Bai Huo hummed: "Yes, both are correct. Expanding the scope of activities of supernatural races without destroying the existing order also means testing the feasibility of racial exchanges. Those who come here are all those who were previously weak in innate hostility. There are no serious feuds among the several races...but someone still needs to monitor them. It would still be very troublesome if a fight broke out."

Hao Ren suddenly looked surprised: "Are you here to monitor the scene? A demon hunter is here to monitor a heterogeneous gathering?"

"How is it possible? To put it bluntly, I am also being monitored." Bai Huo immediately waved his hand, "The elders sent me here to observe this gathering, but at the same time we have to reach an agreement with the Shadow Council. I am under shadow here. Monitoring by the Parliament. Ah, actually the situation is not bad, I have a good relationship with you, and you have great reputation in the Shadow Parliament, so no one comes to cause trouble."

From Bai Huo's few words, Hao Ren knew that the lives of the aliens had undergone greater changes in the dark.

Some new orders are emerging, and the relationship between demon hunters and aliens is gradually evolving in a subtle and tense confrontation. This gathering here may seem annoying, but I am afraid it has a greater meaning deep down, and Hao Ren was 100% convinced that what he saw in the venue were just superficial people at the rally - after all, there were real ordinary people here, and more important activities were probably hidden outside the venue.

You could probably write a story of 20,000 to 300,000 words just by excerpting this meeting, but Hao Ren didn't care too much about it. Let Hesiana and Mimir worry about the Shadow Council. He came here to Secrets of Olympus.

Under the leadership of Bai Huo, the group came to the rest area behind the exhibition hall. They followed a specific route, passed through the area where ordinary people were active, and reached the deepest part of the venue.

There were "cosplayers" standing in groups of twos and threes outside several lounges. A girl with wolf ears was waving her tail vigorously to fan herself: "Hoo, ho, ho - it's so hot, I really want to eat ice cream, I'm so bored."

"That's right," another "young man" wearing a wizard hat nodded, "I thought I could play games all day, but in the end I had to stay here. If I had known better, I would have played games in the family secret realm. interesting."

"Hey, wizard, where is the female companion you were with before? Isn't she your girlfriend? Why did she leave you alone?"

"Oh, that's my great-great-great-grandmother...she went fishing for cockroaches."

"Oh... hush, the hounds are coming!"

The werewolves and wizards noticed the approach of Hao Ren and his entourage, and immediately fell silent and showed expressions of wariness and repulsion. Bai Huo is obviously a "key care" person here, and everyone recognizes her face.

The witcher girl didn't mind this situation, but she wasn't interested in smiling at the aliens either. She walked past the young people who were pointing fingers at her and led Hao Ren and the others into a special room. in the lounge.

"That's the situation. To be honest, I'm quite satisfied," Bai Huo said as he threw the big bag in his hand on the table. He dug through it for a long time and took out several scrolls that looked quite old. , "These are the useful information."

...How dare she stuff such an important thing so casually!

Hao Ren took the scroll and began to study it carefully, while Bai Huo was doing some interpretations and additions.

The scrolls themselves are not the product of the Olympus "god line", but rather investigation reports and transaction notes compiled by the demon hunters after the war. These scrolls contain detailed records of the Olympus lineage. After the destruction, the demon hunters carried out a series of "hunting" actions, which was the process of hunting down those survivors who were lucky enough to escape.

The vast majority of survivors who escaped from Mount Olympus died in the hunt of the witchers. Some even hid for centuries, but in the end they could not escape death. Like Hesperus, he has survived to this day. Yes, it is indeed a rare case.

"Here, a squire escaped dozens of hunts in a row, including a big operation carried out by twenty elite hunters and three master hunters," Bai Huo pointed to a few lines of text on one of the scrolls. , "This attendant himself is unknown. He is just a servant on Mount Olympus. The only special thing is that he is deeply trusted by Zeus. However, in the process of hunting him down, two digits of demon hunters were sacrificed. ——They are all powerful warriors who have experienced hundreds of battles.”

Vivian whispered: "Obviously, he carries a powerful 'artifact'."

"Yes, there is indeed an artifact. Here is the record about that artifact," Bai Huo pointed to the bottom of the scroll, "'The hunting target holds a very dangerous weapon. It is a dark scepter inlaid with a huge The blood-colored gem and the scepter can cause the target's blood to boil to death from a hundred meters away, or cause fatal bleeding and disease. Master-level hunters can only slightly resist this power. I think this is very close to the countess' ability. "

Hao Ren frowned and looked at Vivian: "Not only are they studying how to offset the 'original sin' by worshiping you, but they are also studying your power?"

Vivian also frowned, "What about others?"

"Here," Bai Huo took out another scroll, "'I have witnessed the hunting target carrying a large number of case files and documents. Judging from the few fragments snatched, this should be a batch of missing information when counting the Olympus documents. , this batch of information comes from Athena, or is related to the research on a series of weird rituals at the end of Olympus', and here, 'The target of the hunt had searched for traces of the Countess of the Red Moon during his escape, and suspected that she was trying to defect. , this hunt should be completed before the Countess can grant him asylum'."

Hao Ren narrowed his eyes slightly: "That should be it."
