Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2420 The Prophet is Dead (Twenty-Six)

At this moment, the situation is starting to look clearer.

No matter how abstract or bizarre it may appear, or how powerful the forces behind it may be, it can still be summarized as a conspiracy by a supervillain.

If both the words and the door were made by a shady doctor, the malicious intent to cause trouble would be almost palpable.

Although Fu Qian had no intention of making any moral judgments, he inquired about information about another old friend, Awei.

According to the usual setup, the biggest advantage of supervillains is that they are well-informed and have connections with all sorts of people.

Perhaps the Black Doctor is more likely to know about that old friend who should have visited this place long ago but has been missing ever since than Crystal?
"I am an outsider."

Seeing that both listeners were questioning their lives because of this question, Fu Qian immediately emphasized his persona, saying that there was no need to assume that he was a normal person.

"tail?"

Unfortunately, the Black Doctor seemed just as confused as Crystal had been back then, as if he had never heard of the name before.

"Or call him the Apostle of Death."

Fu Qian never gives up easily, and casually added another possible name.

"...The Angel of Death? You actually know him?"

The saying "He who travels a hundred li is only halfway there at ninety" – this last addition – instantly sparked a strong reaction.

……

So everything that comes here becomes a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur)? Ah-Wei, are you aware of how brave you are, even your vow partner knows?

At that moment, while feeling gratified, Fu Qian also had many feelings about the name the unlicensed doctor had given him.

Since you're new to this place, it's quite reasonable for you to not give your real name but instead use a nickname.

Judging from the quack doctor's reaction when he mentioned this name, it's clear that the person in question is indeed extraordinary.

Considering both factors, the probability that the "Angel of Death" is indeed his old friend is not low.

The only problem is, isn't this nickname a little too catchy?

After converting to Buddhism, has Brother Awei become so unrestrained? Or is there another reason?
“I know him. Ever since I came here, I’ve been wanting to catch up with him.”

In return, Fu Qian didn't keep the black doctor waiting long and directly admitted that he had come for the Angel of Death.

This is not nonsense. Awei herself may not be that important, but in Fuzen's opinion, "Why didn't Awei appear in the Unseen Hill?" is a question that has been lingering since earlier.

At the time, I mainly thought that Ah Wei was difficult to kill, and I also wanted to try out the new reward. In the end, I came here to have some fun.

Furthermore, considering the special oath-bound state of the Grim Reaper Apostle, Sukemae was indeed looking forward to seeing what Awei-sama would become when he revisited the Hill of Unseen.

It would be ideal if some evidence could be provided for the study of oaths as a form of power.

Although considering that Ji Feng, a powerful figure, is in charge, and Awei is in a state of being corrupted by the deep, Fu Qian estimated that it shouldn't cause too much of a stir, and it might require careful searching.

The problem now is that this is all too uneventful.

From the moment I entered until just now, there was absolutely no trace of that old friend, which seemed a bit odd to me—just like with Unseen Hill.

That's right, it's not just Awei who's acting strangely.

One question that has been puzzling me is why this containment occurred, when everything seemed fine.

So, could Awei's unusual behavior be related to this unusual behavior?

After realizing certain commonalities, Fu Qian suddenly had higher expectations for this seemingly unintentional step.

It's reassuring that the Black Doctor was also very cooperative.

"Angel of Death? I've never heard of that title before. Is it a new demigod?" Amber seemed genuinely unaware of this, and couldn't help but express her confusion as she faced the two exchanging information.

There are so many things you don't know.

The black doctor's psychological advantage immediately became apparent when he looked at her sideways, and even his sneer had the same flair as before.

"Have you ever considered that you've been far too superstitious about so-called prophets all along?"

……

"That makes sense. Often, shortcuts can actually become obstacles."

Fu Qian didn't mind the quack doctor's distracted and sarcastic remarks halfway through the conversation, and even echoed them.

The principle of "use it or lose it" applies here. Yuan Fang's unique existence has given the entire Weijianzhiqiu a special network.

With a higher degree of control over things and even the ability to predict the future, the demigods who enjoy this convenience are, to some extent, limiting themselves and giving up on deeper exploration.

So, to be fair, the black doctor's words do have some merit.

“Especially since the prophet might be a stranger.”

Not only that, but the next moment, Fu Qian even added an extra blow, combining the previous events with the story.

Although he himself is an outsider, he still emphasized the need to avoid assuming the worst about one's own group.

Ok……

The prophet's origins were indeed a point of contention discussed earlier. Amber, who had been hesitant to speak for a moment, opened her mouth but ultimately remained silent.

"...What I can tell you is that the Angel of Death is definitely not an outsider, although he has indeed never appeared before."

With no response from the target of his mockery, the quack doctor, feeling helpless, returned to the previous topic.

After a moment's hesitation, when he spoke again, the first thing he emphasized was that the Angel of Death was definitely not an outsider.

"Why do you say that? Have you met him?"

Although the description of the Ash Ring suggests that this is indeed the expected effect, I was still very curious about the reasons behind the Black Doctor's judgment.

“I’ve never seen him, but I just know… I even know that if you can get out of here, you’ll definitely see him.”

The black doctor snorted coldly, his tone very confident, and implied that attention should be turned to his great achievements.

"So this is still part of a series of operations? The Angel of Death is lurking on the other side of the door, and there's more to the plan? You guys are quite organized."

Fu Qian, however, was always optimistic and instantly sensed the group's involvement in the crime.

That makes sense; supervillains are sometimes more likely to find common ground and organize themselves to cause trouble.

The "Freedom Gate" is just the first step; more exciting developments are likely to follow.
This must be the real "darkest night"!

It can only be said that the story, which was gradually becoming abstract, suddenly became a classic.

“I am not his lackey, and what I do is never in accordance with his will.”

Unfortunately, the quack doctor, still unwilling to be subservient to others, immediately denied this claim.

"I understand. It seems I need to get out of here quickly. Since you were the one who caused this, you must know a way out, right?"

When people are out in the world, saving face is important, so we didn't take things too seriously beforehand. We finally started to focus on how to get back home.

"It's a pity, there's nothing we can do about it."

The quack doctor answered almost instantly, as if he had been waiting for this for a long time.
