Chapter 551 Chef

Walter, who had a fluffy and messy white beard, had a sullen face, and led the way with a cane, while the young attendant followed behind nervously.

Gilan lowered the brim of his hat and put his hands in his pockets.

A lazy and casual attitude.

More than half of the readers in the library hall silently put down their books and followed the three people out one after another driven by curiosity, as if they wanted to watch the fun.

Before walking out of the library hall, Gillan suddenly noticed something and turned his eyes to the corner.

There was a flash of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal. After retracting his gaze, he walked forward as if nothing had happened, but the corners of his mouth were inexplicably raised...

‘I really didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence. ’

Ji Lan secretly thought.

In the corner of the hall, there is a tall and thin man in a suit and leather shoes, who is concentrating on reading the ancient book in his hand.

He had a mustache and an expression full of ecstasy.

"Found it, found it..."

The man murmured in an excited tone.

The ancient book in his hand contains the secret of ascension. It tells in detail how an ascended person from the Middle Ages prepared in advance, passed the test of the ascension gate in a dream, and was finally promoted to leave the world forever and live in the land of gods.

"It's worth it that after all my hard work, I finally found another 'Platinum Library Card'. As rumored, the secret of ascension is hidden in the big library of the bookstore..."

Shiloh Simon slowly closed the ancient book and thought to himself.

At this time, he noticed the movement in the hall, and couldn't help but frown slightly, with a puzzled look on his face, as if he didn't know why these people left together.

Soon, Shi Luo's eyes followed the crowd and looked forward, and his expression suddenly changed drastically.

Because he saw the person he least wanted to see!

"Red Sage" Gilan Iros!

At the beginning, he ordered the members of the "Traveler Circus" to hunt down two lone mystics. They chased them all the way from the Owena Federation to the Bremen Empire, trying to snatch the "Platinum Library Card" from the opponent's hand, but unexpectedly they were stabbed in the Empire. Out of big trouble.

This incident coincided with the fact that the "Red Sage" had just succeeded his teacher as the chairman of the committee, so he killed the chicken to scare the monkeys and personally killed the "Traveler's Circus" team.

During this process, the two sides also fought in the air, but Shi Luo suffered a big loss.

The two became enemies because of this.

Later, the name of "Red Sage" became more and more famous.

First, he attacked Jacobin, the federal capital, and turned the place upside down. Even the superior, Peter, was killed by him. Later, it was said that he had completed his ascension, and at the same time escaped from the federal encirclement and suppression, and he was in the limelight for a while.

After Shi Luo learned the news, he was very frightened. He didn't want to meet this ruthless man again, for fear that he would cause trouble for him.

Unexpectedly, I would meet him here!

Shi Luo suddenly wanted to retreat and planned to escape before the "Red Sage" noticed him.

But soon, his whole body stiffened and a chill ran down his spine.

Because Shi Luo noticed that the purple-eyed young man shifted his gaze without warning, glanced at him with a half-smile, and then walked away.

"Damn it! The 'Red Sage' found me!"

Shi Luo suddenly screamed inwardly.

He was sweating profusely and froze in place as if struck by lightning, not daring to act rashly.

"What to do? What to do?!"

"Should I leave? No... no, the look in his eyes just now was obviously warning me that I can't escape."

In an instant, Shi Luo went through several rounds of struggles in his heart. Finally, he gritted his teeth, put the ancient book in his arms, and followed.

Now that the "Red Sage" has discovered him, he can't escape. He can only follow him and find an opportunity to apologize to the other party and beg for forgiveness.

And this is the only way for him to survive!

…

…

Walter and his attendants led Gilan the way, and after leaving the Great Library, they arrived at the outskirts of this isolated island.

The surrounding vegetation is lush.

It happens to be autumn, and the forests are all dyed.

A stone path extends from the entrance of the Great Library and branches in front, leading to several directions.

Gillan saw a wooden trestle directly ahead, and beyond it was a lonely lighthouse. The path on the left is a wheat field, and on the right is a path that bypasses the Great Library and goes to the back.

At this time, Walter was taking him along the path on the right.

A group of men and women in "fancy clothes" followed the three of them at a distance. Although both Gillan and Walter had already noticed it, they didn't say much.

Not long after.

Gillan followed Walter along the stone path through the forest, bypassed the huge library, and came to a quiet manor area.

Rows of old-fashioned red brick apartments are located on lush lawns, surrounded by wrought iron fences.

Along the way, Walt explained something to Gillan.

This manor area is specially prepared for guests who come to visit. Because of the vast collection of books in the Great Library, it would take a long time to read even one percent of the books.

Moreover, the Great Library is located behind the inaccessible Russell Mountains, an isolated island in the extreme north of the mainland, and it is often extremely difficult to get there.

Therefore, most guests will stay for a long time.

They also jokingly call themselves "library hermits."

The guest named Angus that Gillan is looking for is exactly such a "hermit".

Crunch——

Walter opened the door of the manor and took Gillan in.

After crossing the lawn, in front of the third-to-last red brick apartment building on the right, Walter stopped.

"This is Mr. Angus's residence."

The old man raised his hand to signal and whispered.

With that said, he went up and knocked on the metal door of the apartment, making a clanging sound.

But after waiting for a while, there was no response.

Gillan frowned.

Because he smelled a strange smell that was coming out of the courtyard of the apartment... It was like the smell of rotting fat mixed with offal being blanched in a pot, or the pungent smell of burnt hair. odor.

Both Walter and the attendants around him smelled the smell. The former was fine, but the young attendant already looked embarrassed and almost felt sick.

"Mr. Angus, are you in the apartment? I am the administrator Walter. I have something to call upon..."

Walter coughed and called loudly.

But before he finished speaking, the door opened with a clang, and a low and impatient rough voice came from inside:

"What the hell?! I'm doing serious artistic creation and I can't bear to be disturbed!"

Jilan narrowed his eyes.

He saw a strong man about two meters tall standing inside the open iron door... This strong man had a round belly and a fleshy face. His entire face was swollen and deformed, making him look extremely ugly and hideous.

Although this person was wearing a shirt and trousers, it looked like it hadn't been washed for a long time. It was stained with oil, sweat and blood, and was full of stench.

Ji Lan quietly launched his spiritual vision and confirmed at a glance that this person was a sixth-level long-lived person.

At the same time, he always felt that this guy looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before, so he activated the "Guidance Prompt" ability.

"Angus Carriel."

"Male, 68 years old."

"The long-lived person of level 6 is the 'perfect man' in nature."

"The owner of the 'Apostle's Mark' (apostle candidate)."

"... He was a restaurant chef in Peel City. During the 'Red Moon Incident', he was burned by the moonlight and transformed into a pig-headed monster. He slaughtered an entire street of people and cooked them into meat. Soup swallowed.”

"The red moonlight contains a trace of power and knowledge from the fourth division of the old god. Angus was a blessing in disguise, regained some of his rationality, and embarked on the path of occultism."

Ji Lan was quite surprised.

He didn't expect that the smelly strong man in front of him was actually the "pig-headed chef" monster in the movie "Old Peel" that he had seen!

When he was watching the movie, he saw through the easter egg that among the twelve passengers, the fat businessman died at the hands of this guy. He was slaughtered and made into a pot of soup for him to eat.

However, Jilan was too weak at the time and did not dare to provoke the opponent.

"Sorry to bother you, Mr Angus."

At this time, the old administrator Walter saluted and said.

"It's just because you borrowed a fragment of the real film "Curtain Call" last time and it was already half a month overdue, so I came to ask for it just for this reason."

"Just because of this trivial matter, you come here to disturb my artistic creation?!"

Angus' face was ugly and his eyes were cruel.

"Do you know how long I have been preparing for this creation? How important it is to me? The great gods have been watching me, expecting me to create more masterpieces..."

"Perhaps because of your interruption, I lost an opportunity to ascend! You damn stupid pig!"

The strong man shouted angrily, spraying saliva on Walter's face.

Being yelled at and insulted in front of others, Walter's old face seemed a little uneasy, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

Fortunately, he was well behaved and just silently wiped the saliva on his face, and then said in a deep voice:

"I'm really sorry, sir, but your overdue matter involves the rules of the bookstore. Please forgive me for stating again, please return the things you borrowed."

"What if I don't pay it back?"

Angus grinned, showing jagged yellow teeth.

"It's just a piece of film fragment. According to the principle of 'equal exchange', I will compensate you for a big meal. If it weren't for the 'director' February Sichen, I wouldn't even want to take a look at it..."

"And my cooking skills are more artistic than movies!"

"Big dinner?"

Walter looked past Angus and landed in the yard.

I saw a large iron pot placed there, with a pot of black and green soup boiling in it, with strange bubbles rising. You can also faintly see the bones, skin and flesh of some small animals and even the long hair of human women.

That stench came from the pot.

Walter was secretly angry. The so-called "big meal" had no so-called value at all, but was more like an insult to the bookstore.

Gillan, who was standing behind, also noticed the iron pot.

He looked at the strong man expressionlessly.

'This guy's mental state is worse than before I sealed the 'Mad King'. It is probably due to the erosion of the 'Moon God', and the sequelae are too serious...'

Gillan thought.

'And the act of cooking people as food deserves to be called art? "Mrs. Ya's" vision is still as bad as ever. ’

He took a step forward and motioned for Walter to move away.

This old administrator is just a fifth-level long-timer. Faced with Angus's lack of confidence, Gillan plans to personally come forward.
