Chapter 185 Death Archon

"No need for unnecessary praise. You are indeed an excellent hunter."

"But the characteristics of sequence one are in the hands of the witch, so you may have to plan carefully."

"This is no trouble."

On the way back to the hotel, Medici was obviously in a much better mood and did not use public funds to buy any random souvenirs along the way.

Traynor held the communion wafer as a reward in his hand. After taking a bite, he could hear the praises to the great Lord. He felt that his heart gradually became calmer. The sounds of praises to the Lord echoed in his ears, and his mood became more and more peaceful.

The honey is quite delicious... He pulled back from endless praising the Lord: "Thank you for the compliment."

"The more you act like this, the more I look forward to you becoming an angel."

Medici said: "Do you really not have any desire for power and status? I don't believe it. This is an ambition rooted deep in the path and blood. If you can adapt well in Sequence 3, you will never stop there. "

Traynor shrugged regretfully:

"Whenever someone asks me, 'What are your plans for the future?' I always reply, 'I don't plan to live that long at all.'"

"My friends all died early due to misfortune and fear of the war, but my heart and fate are very hard, and I am still alive today. I would rather I died a hundred years ago. There is no point in living for so long. To fight another war."

"It sounds like you are very experienced. Go and lead the troops immediately."

"No, thank you for your kindness, please let me go back to the logistics."

During the chat, Traynor had a spiritual thought and saw an announcement "Monsters have been eliminated" posted on the external bulletin board of the Church of Storms not far away.

The two of them chatted all the way back to the hotel. Sauron was still quite dissatisfied with Elaine and couldn't help but criticize a few words. How did this soft-hearted girl survive until now and how did she get promoted to 7? It stands to reason that In the past, such a soft and untalented child could only be raised until he was eighteen years old and then sent out for marriage! But as they talked, they inevitably talked about the current weakness of the Sauron family. Sauron reluctantly scolded the still-dead Russell a few times, and angrily returned to the spiritual world of the Red Evil Spirit.

"There is no need to cooperate with the Witch Sect, so what is the next plan?"

"Look for the witch named Panatia."

"It's unbelievable that you can actually call people by their names."

Medici turned a deaf ear to this little complaint: "Let's go back and investigate the Great Smog again to see who else is involved."

Traynor thought for a while and remained silent.

In the Southern Continent, in a gorgeously decorated room.

Edward blew the tea in the cup leisurely, feeling a strange sense of familiarity with the tea with spices, milk and various ingredients. After a while, He took another cup, adjusted the proportions of tea, milk and spices himself, and made himself a cup of milk tea.

After tasting the milk tea with satisfaction, Edward turned to look at the figure behind the gauze curtain and pushed the note in front of him further away.

"Sorry, Pale Queen, if you want me to take action on these cities, this offer is a bit low."

"In the Governor's City of the Four Kingdoms, I will offend four gods at the same time. This is not an easy thing to deal with. Simple money is somewhat unattractive to me."

Behind the curtain made of gold thread, a woman wearing the pattern and snake-shaped crown characteristic of the Balam Empire asked calmly:

"Money doesn't appeal to you, so you should have what you need."

Edward put down the tea cup and said with a smile:

"If Si'a is caught before me, I will be happy to help you clean up the four governor colonial cities."

The Pale Queen's voice was like a pool of stagnant water:

"The current war situation is not suitable to take action against the Indulgent Faction."

"That's a shame."

Edward said: "I have a lot of information in my hands that you may be interested in, such as the location of the Balam Empire Crown and the whereabouts of another Sequence One trait."

News came from the North family in Backlund that Roen will publicly display some foreign cultural relics in Jianhai County next month, and the exhibit at the bottom of the box is Balam's imperial crown. Although I don’t know if genuine products will be on display, it’s worth a visit.

There is no need for the temptation of the devil at all, and there is no need for these small tricks in the dialogue of Sequence One. These two things have great appeal to the last emperor of Balam. Shia Eggers was slightly moved:

"Can Si'a's value be exchanged for these two pieces of information?"

Edward smiled and spread his hands: "You have to choose between the governors of the four countries and the two intelligences."

"I like win-win transactions. If you can bring Si'a to me, I can also personally deliver the sequence to you. As for the information about the Balam Crown, just treat it as a gift. .”

"The latter." After a brief fluctuation, the Pale Queen's mood calmed down again, "I will pay attention to Si'a's location, and we will also provide help if you need it."

"There have been rumors from the outside world that you and Si'a are both favored by that person."

Edward nodded pretending to be serious: "Because of this, I want to prove to that great existence that I am the most useful."

"However, there is one thing I must confirm in advance."

"Speaking."

"After you hunt Si'a, will you incorporate the Rose School?" The Pale Queen was also worried about the changes in the situation in the southern continent. "I must know your attitude."

That’s a good question…

Edward held the teacup and tray, thought seriously for a while, and then said:

"Maybe, I won't stop them anyway."

Shia Eggers didn't find this answer too strange. As long as it was not blocked, there would still be a chance to cooperate with the Spiritual Religion. He nodded slightly and replied: "Your attitude towards the anchor is indeed the same as before."

"you flatter me."

The cooperation is over here, leaving some time for information exchange and gossip. "Messenger of Death" Mirela bowed his head and entered the door, holding a tray above his head with a letter and some items on it.

"You might be interested in the current situation of the war."

"Indeed, please tell me."

Shia Eggers raised her hand, and Mirela began to report loudly the injuries on both sides from the end of last year to this year. Edward politely listened to the relatively boring information. With so much foreshadowing, he thought there must be something in it. A variable that Shia Eggers feels is more important.

Sure enough, after quickly recounting the results of the past few months, the Pale Queen spoke slowly:

"I believe you have also discovered that the Spiritual Religion Group currently does not have the power to deal with the Northern Continent Church, even if it is just the country of Loen."

This is the consensus of everyone, just like the demonstrations and uprisings all the time are just to let the nobles leak more money and food from their fingers to the common people, the common people are always very satisfied. This action of the Spiritual Religion Group did not cause much trouble internationally. At least it was rarely reported in the domestic newspapers of Loen. Only the foreign newspapers that watched the excitement would publicize the decline of Loen, perhaps to build momentum for future wars. .

From the perspective of various countries and even within the Spiritual Religion, this raid was regarded as an ordinary demonstration, with the purpose of forcing Roen to replace the governor of the important strategic city of Aldera.

However, when Edward saw the request for cooperation from the Pale Queen and the request from above to clean up the colonial cities in four countries at the same time, he immediately concluded that Shia Eggers's plan was much more than that. A big storm pulls everyone into the water!

But realistically speaking, even if all countries will hinder each other, the slave owners will unite to suppress the slave rebellion first... Edward put down the tea cup and finally became more interested:

"Yes, so I am more curious about your purpose."

The Pale Queen spoke:

"A war is brewing in the Northern Continent."

"This may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Southern Continent."

With the figure of Medici in his mind, Edward said meaningfully: "Have the hunters started to move more frequently?"

The Pale Queen nodded slowly.

"No wonder the agreement states that the time to take action needs to be discussed later. The Southern Continent is rich in food and spices, as well as various ores, metals, rubber and other important strategic materials. Do you want to wait for the Northern Continent to turn into a mess and destroy their logistics? Lifted."

The devil showed a sincere smile this time, and his voice unconsciously carried a hint of temptation and transaction:

"I'm very much looking forward to this day..."

"Very good, very good! I have decided that if you can bring Si'a to me, not just those two pieces of news, I will be happy to give you a governor's city with only people from the southern continent. Of course, give it away It all depends on my mood."

Shia Eggers was slightly shaken, but she blinked lightly and immediately broke away from this temptation that was not too serious.

He thanked him calmly, expressed his willingness to cooperate, and gave out the next piece of information:

"As you can see, I am still stationed in Aldera City. The excuse is that if the new governor cannot manage the colony well, let the Southern Continent manage it by itself."

"After all, they still didn't promote the local governor, and a new transfer order came from Loen."

"That means your position is about to be threatened."

"No matter who comes, I won't be satisfied until this city belongs to me again."

The Pale Queen calmly swore her territorial sovereignty, and then began to tell this information:

"Loen spent a lot of time promoting in Aldera, claiming that the new governor who came this time was a well-known and outstanding person. He was once a mayor and managed the city in an orderly manner during his tenure. And He supported education, rescued orphans, established charity schools, and did all kinds of good deeds. He was an ideal and perfect governor."

"The army transfer order was also issued at the same time, and the replacement was replaced by the second son of a great nobleman, whose full name is Alfred Hall. It is said that this nobleman had strongly supported the industrial development of the Southern Continent and stimulated economic development. So his second son, who could not inherit the family property, decided to pursue a career in the military and political circles, and he boldly accepted the transfer, probably hoping to gain a title from this war."

"Many people in the city of Aldera have begun to lay down their weapons and begin to look forward to the good life that the new governor will bring for decades."

Edward's idea was more direct: "Perhaps it would be a good idea to just let the new governor disappear at sea. Anyway, the civilians don't know that there is a demigod on the boat who cannot be drowned."

"The newspaper industry in the Southern Continent is underdeveloped and cannot match Luen's propaganda efforts."

The Pale Queen said: "I also hope that this good man disappears into the sea as soon as possible. The Southern Continent is not a place where such a person should come."

After saying that, His eyes turned slightly, fell on Edward Vaughan, and asked calmly:

"The 'Immortal King' Agaritu may be your subordinate."

Hearing this name, "Messenger of Death" Mirela clenched her fists again. But he controlled the insignificant anger in his heart very well. At the same time, Mirela saw that the devil was very interested in snacks and tea, so he asked the attendant to serve two plates of snacks, one plate of Northern Continent-style tea and one plate of tea. Special snacks from the Balam Empire.

Edward's eyes looked at the two plates of snacks, and he reached out and took one from the special plate of the Balam Empire and put it into his mouth. He thought for a moment and nodded in acknowledgement.

"Then, I hope you can provide some help and harassment. Except for the governor, no one else has to set foot on the land of the Southern Continent."

"That's another price."

"Twenty thousand pounds in exchange for the help of a demigod."

"This is a generous price." Edward smiled, "I took it."

After a moment of silence, He suddenly asked a question:

"You have already met Azik Eggers, right? What is your impression of this ancestor?"

Mirela's expression changed as she stood aside. Pale Queen Shia Eggers was silent for five seconds before speaking slowly:

"Unfortunately, He has no intention of saving us, and He has no intention of helping us."

"He himself said that His real life is only those in the Northern Continent. We are not His children. He has no feelings for the Southern Continent."

"In this case, the Spiritual Religion Group will not welcome him."

Edward sighed with emotion: "Love and freedom are so wonderful that even the agents of death have become attached to the world of living people. Such an embarrassing situation is probably what the gods behind the scenes want."

"It sounds like you know what's going on."

"This is another price. Her Majesty the Queen, you can't afford it."

The Pale Queen suppressed a trace of curiosity that arose in her heart - if the price of this piece of information was quite expensive, how did the demon angels at the same level as herself learn about it? I'm afraid it can only be attributed to the great existence behind Him, but why has Si'a, who was favored by the same existence, never shown such rationality and talent?

The deal was sealed, the conversation became lighter, and an afternoon tea was coming to an end.

At the "Azure Wind" Hotel, Klein was about to fall asleep when he suddenly saw the colors around him becoming extremely vivid.

The white sheets became whiter, the brown floor became more brown, and the dark red curtains looked like blood... In a scene where various color blocks were superimposed, Azik Eggers walked out of the rippling void water.

He still dressed up in shirt, tie, tailcoat, and top hat, with a bronze complexion and soft facial features.

Klein smiled and greeted, "Good evening, Mr. Azik."

At the same time, he suddenly felt a sore nose and hot eyes. After seeing the only person he could talk to, the sadness that had been deliberately forgotten rushed into his mind and nose again.

But now was not a good time to reminisce about the past. He used his faceless ability to control his facial expressions and suppressed the urge to cry.

Azik didn't notice anything unusual. He took off his hat, glanced at the unfamiliar face, and chuckled without any surprise:

"Sorry, I came in too hasty, I should have gone out and knocked on the door first."

"What exactly are those documents related to the God of Death?"

As Klein asked him to sit down, he described in detail the things that could not be discussed in the letter. At the end, he casually mentioned what happened in Westport, and briefly described the appearance of the two high-sequence hunters who captured him. .

Azik leaned back in his chair, frowned slightly and said:

"Port Bansi...I don't know."

"But the person you described... long red hair, black eyes, and a fiery red flag mark between his eyebrows... evoked some memories for me."

"I have this name in my memory. His name is Medici, and he should have two titles, 'Red Angel' and 'War Angel'..."

"However, He has fallen long ago."

"Perished long ago?" Klein asked in shock.

Azik nodded and thought hard:

"I remember that He was killed by the 'Blood Emperor' Alistair Tudor."

Killed by "Blood Emperor" Alistair Tudor?

Klein's pupils shrank when he thought of the evil spirit he had met twice. Some of his questions were answered, but at the same time, more confusion emerged.

In other words... after "Red Angel" Medici was killed by "Blood Emperor" Alistair Tudor, his body was left in the basement and eventually became an evil spirit? I accidentally encountered Him who was still in the state of an evil spirit, and then met Him with a strange entity on the sea this time... That body had no flesh and blood at all and was made of metal. It was very similar to what I had seen in "Arrods" What he saw in the live broadcast was the puppet body used by the Steam Church demigod Horamik Haydon... Only now did Klein have the energy to put these fragmentary clues together.

Could that evil spirit be the "Red Angel" Medici, the king of angels who once served the "Creator" and one of the founders of the "Rose of Redemption"? Klein instantly came up with such an association, and went back to look for traces and clues:

"The evil spirit I saw in my dream could easily kill a powerful dragon when he was alive, and the dragon is one of the enemies of mankind in mythology."

It is very possible that he was the derivation of the "Red Angel" Medici after his death... And a king of angels was actually killed by the "Blood Emperor" Alistair Tudor. Does this mean that the latter has transcended After reaching Sequence 1, reaching the level of True God in Sequence 0, I can no longer look directly...

By the way, Mr. Azik also mentioned in the letter that he lost consciousness after being glanced at by "Blood Emperor" Alistair Tudor. At that time, he was at least a Sequence 4 demigod." "Blood Emperor" is so powerful that it can only be explained by being at the level of a true god...

In that letter, Mr. Azik also described the real "Black Emperor" who was resurrected, saying that he was sitting on a huge throne, looking down at the entire earth... If the "Black Emperor" can be resurrected and returned, there is a high probability that he will be in sequence 0 The true god of the fourth level... If this is true, the "War of the Four Emperors" is much more advanced than I thought before. It is no longer just three Sequence 1s competing for the position of Sequence 0... Klein connected many things before and after, and for the Fourth A new understanding of the history of the

"At the same time, He also said that Bansi has some tainted descendants."

"Bansi..."

Since the 'Red Angel' Medici fell at the hands of the 'Blood Emperor' Alistar Tudor as early as the Fourth Age, then in the past few hundred years, the "God of Weather" believed by the Medici descendants of Bansi Port "Who is it again?

What is the source of the abnormality they show...

Moreover, judging from Medici's reaction at that time, he was not surprised by the situation of those descendants, nor did he care about the Church of Storms purging Bansi. He seemed to have known what would happen very early...

The secrets hidden in the Green Lemon Restaurant and the Telegraph Office in Port Bansy are even more difficult to guess, and there is no way to deduce the source. The more you think about it, the more frightening it becomes.

Azik did not interrupt Klein's thinking, but frowned and recalled, and said slowly:

"In the past, the 'Red Angel' Medici seemed to symbolize 'war' and 'fire of war'. He was the king of angels and was close to the throne of God. His existence itself was a sign. Maybe you saw him on the sea. It means the war is about to spread.”

Speaking of this, Azik sighed unnaturally:

"You said that He went to negotiate with the witch. It reminds me of what happened during the Great Smog."

"Both these two paths represent disaster, disaster, and war. They are in opposition and help each other, and may be working together to plan a greater disaster."

Is "Red Angel" Medici planning a bigger disaster? No, it's probably a war! Klein's eyes narrowed, and he connected various doubts, and suddenly felt that this was an obvious thing! And during the great smog, a demigod-level witch was able to cause such casualties. What kind of war would the King of Angels plan? Klein couldn't even think about it, he only knew that countless people would definitely die as a result.

Just as he was still thinking about how to get rid of the inexplicable favor of the "True Creator", he had only one idea about the hidden secrets of the "Redemption Rose" and "War Angel":

Report it quickly!

If you don’t report it, will you let them celebrate the New Year of 1351?
