Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2425 The Prophet is Dead (Part 31)

Adult communication is often very purposeful.

Not to mention that Akasha was originally so well hidden that even the crystal couldn't be found, but now she has given up on showing herself.

With such firmness and decisiveness, how could their plans not be grand?

Although, from the current perspective, they are still satisfied with this development.

Even before I decided to return to this restaurant, I had already imagined what kind of visitors would come.

The result was a reenactment of a scene that had happened before, so vividly reminiscent of something else. I finally met Akasha, whom Crystal had been searching for, and it felt like winning the lottery.

Not to mention that, just as Crystal feared, Akasha's relationship with the Unseen Hill behind the door seemed rather complicated.

The name "Amber" was something I specifically chose for the crystal's nascent soul to make it easier to distinguish.

However, when the Spider Queen heard this, she did not seem surprised at all.

This cannot be explained simply by having been to that place; it means that the exchanges that took place there were probably no secret to her.

It's truly terrifying to think about.

She didn't even shy away from showing this, making her purpose for coming here equally chilling upon closer examination.

"Yes, I know you went behind the door."

Sure enough, Akasha admitted it the next moment.

"With Amber."

This reassuring attitude deserves my immediate praise.

Meanwhile, out of the corner of his eye, he also saw Catherine return.

Two identical plates, even the way the sausages are arranged inside is the same.

……

"Yes, including what you did in there."

I wonder if, like Crystal, she also received guidance from the prophet and learned that when communicating with the stranger Andil, it's better to be honest.

Akasha quickly nodded, indicating that she was indeed monitoring things from behind the scenes.

"In any case, thank you for your help in this matter. I am very sorry to Crystal."

Not only that, she even took the initiative to thank them and frankly admitted that she was the one who did some of the things.

"Laying eggs on someone else and then blocking their contact information? That does sound a bit excessive, but that's between you two."

Fu Qian waved his hand, indicating that there were some things he, as an outsider, had no intention of commenting on.

Even though it was just his metaphor, it was enough to send your blood pressure soaring.

"In short, I'm here to tell you one thing... This night is going to be long."

Even a powerful queen like Akasha frowned at that moment, took a deep breath, and quickly got to the point.

Oh?
He seemed genuinely intrigued by the statement, and glanced outside for a moment.

It was indeed still very dark, with no sign of dawn, but Akasha was clearly not some artsy young woman, so this was probably not a rhetorical device.

"It means exactly what it says: Dawn will never come."

Sure enough, the latter explained further the next moment, indicating that the Hill of the Unseen would never see the light of day again.

……

So this is the "Darkest Night"? Is it not just the unseen hill behind the door that is black, devoid of fire?
This situation is indeed interesting.

Akasha brought a crucial piece of information, which immediately connected to her mission. She was even more pleased that she hadn't directly caused chaos on the other side.

"Why tonight of all night? Does it have anything to do with me coming here?"

He thanked her, took the plate from Catherine, and before paying, took another bite, making sure to confirm more details. "Just give it to me."

Even while giving Akasha time to think, seeing that Catherine didn't even dare to approach, Fu Qian directly took another portion of food from her and pushed it in front of the Spider Queen.

"It may or may not be related... You can even choose what you want to do next, including staying here or leaving."

It's clear that even though the sausage should be low in starch, the Spider Queen is still not very interested in this food.

Akasha glanced at it briefly before looking away, showing no intention of trying it, and continued to respond to Fu Qian's question with an air of mystery.

"To sum it up, the darkest night is about to begin here, and then I can do whatever I want?"

Fu Qian didn't seem to mind the charlatan's tone, but rather seemed thoughtful.

"Yes, but I'm not in a hurry to leave."

As expected of the evil faction, after a brief period of passivity, Akasha had already adjusted her emotions somewhat. Her eyes sparkled as she nodded, and her tone was intriguing.

"That's great."

Fu Qian was certainly not an unromantic person, and immediately expressed his deep satisfaction.

"So you have a team with a division of labor?"

Although his way of understanding romance is a little different.

……

"Do you want to form a team with me?"

It was just a joke, but it was over-interpreted.

Akasha reacted quickly; her facial expression barely changed at that moment, and she even gave a flirtatious wink in return.

Her attitude was clear: aside from the reminder about the Darkest Night, she had no intention of answering anything further.

"sure."

However, Fu Qian did not insist, and even accepted the application to join the team.

As for why the concept of a team exists?
Back when I was dealing with the shady doctor, I had guessed that some people in the Hill of the Unseen might have conspired together to come up with a big plan under similar inspiration.

Given Akasha's mysterious disappearance, it's hard not to suspect that she was one of these "lucky ones".

So, could she also know about the Angel of Death?

Asking questions about the current situation would obviously not get an answer, but in Fu Qian's view, the probability of "yes" was still very high—after all, he was originally waiting for the Angel of Death.

Never take things for granted. Even if the prophet is no longer here, and even as a stranger in a foreign land, one should not ignore the possibility that one's words and actions are being monitored.

The reason I mentioned Awei's name earlier was specifically for the potential audience.

As mentioned at the beginning, the question of why Awei, whom I sent in, did not appear may be very meaningful for understanding the current situation of Unseen Hill and even Jifeng.

So how could Fuqian possibly give up any opportunity to scare people out?

Not to mention that His Excellency the Black Doctor has clearly stated that as long as he returns here, he will definitely be able to see the Angel of Death.

In the end, it was Akasha who arrived.

So regardless of her purpose, the fact that she would not overlook this possibility of division of labor within a team is undeniable.

"Great, we have such a strong knight with us. So what's our next plan?"

Akasha seemed quite satisfied with and very interested in Fu Qian's ideas.

"of course?"

Fu Qian tapped his fingers lightly on the mirror nail, his words uttered without any hesitation.

"Of course, we insist on upholding a ridiculous sense of justice."
