Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 569 I unexpectedly met Adam! (Added update for the leader of [Why is Xiao Xue so handsome])

Be the way of old!
At this time, everyone still only had a vague concept of the Old One. The "Emperor"'s words made them realize that just like becoming a Sequence 0 True God, there is a certain way to become the Old One.

Moreover, this method was not clear even to the emperor, who was always knowledgeable.

Klein immediately understood: The content that Russell did not see must be about how to become the old one!

Alger sighed: This is the "blasphemous slate". Only such high-level information can be worthy of its status in the legend.

After being briefly surprised, Cattleya quickly calmed down and organized her words to ask: "Where did the 'blasphemous slate' come from? I mean, who summed up the way to become the old days?
"Also, on the first 'Desecration Slate', who summed up 22 relatively safe ways to be promoted? And recorded this information on the 'Desecration Slate'?

"Is it some ancient god? Or the legendary creator?"

Hobert believed that too detailed information about the first 'blasphemous tablet' could not be disclosed for the time being, so he said: "The first 'blasphemous tablet' appeared too long ago, and I have no relevant information here.

"But I know that the summary of becoming the Old One on the second 'blasphemous tablet' was completed by the ancient Sun God, because He is an Old One.

“This is His great contribution to the extraordinary world!”

Cattleya nodded. She remembered that the "Emperor" had said similar words in a previous Tarot meeting.

She said: "So, the first 'Profane Slate' should be an existence that was promoted to god in a relatively safe way in the Second Age, or earlier?"

"Not necessarily." Hobert said: "Just like me, I have not received systematic occult training and only occasionally come into contact with occult symbols. But as I advance, I can gradually feel the extraordinary power and those The connections between occult symbols make it easy to understand their meanings.

"Now, I can even understand the working principles of most magic circles."

Cattleya nodded: "I understand what you mean. Some things can be deduced by relying on one's own extraordinary characteristics and high status."

Hobert smiled: "I think so."

The conversation between the two people made Audrey realize a problem: in the extraordinary world, mature ideas are very important. Hobert and Ms. Hermit have similar levels of ideas, so their communication efficiency is very high.

Hobert added: "For the gods, the second 'blasphemous slate' ended the era of wars for all kinds of ridiculous reasons and opened the era of gambling for the past!

"So, the new Fourth Era begins!"

These words made everyone realize: at the beginning of the Fourth Age, the gods were already competing to become the old ones!
Klein lamented: As a Sequence 5-level Extraordinary, I am completely unaware of such things. The concept of "gods" is like a huge division. Below this dividing line are all living beings. Beyond this dividing line, It is completely beyond the thoughts and consciousness of ordinary people.

Audrey felt as if she had seen a distant peak, but all she could do now was praise the peak because she was too far away from that peak.

Alger smiled bitterly: My goal before joining the Tarot Club was to become a Sequence 5. Later, I had the ambition to become a demigod. Now, I almost can't figure out my goal.

The other members also had their own emotions, and for a moment, the entire hall fell silent.

After a while, Klein manipulated "The World" and asked: "Where are the two 'blasphemous slates' now? Or in whose hands are they?"

Hobert answered vaguely: "It is said that the ancient sun god once held the first 'blasphemous tablet'. He disappeared after his death and should now be in the 'place abandoned by the gods'. The second 'blasphemous tablet' seems to be in Adam’s hand.”

Klein nodded invisibly, which was related to the diary of Emperor Russell that he had read. What Russell had read was the second "blasphemous tablet", but it was hidden by Adam and became the way of the past.

Cattleya suddenly said: "Can we regard the 'blasphemous slate' as the light brought by the ancient sun god to the extraordinary world?

"I remember Mr. Emperor once said that the first 'Profane Slate' appeared in the Second Age, and the ancient sun god also appeared in the late Second Age.

"Now Adam, the son of the ancient sun god, holds the second 'blasphemous tablet'. I believe that this 'blasphemous tablet' is also closely related to the ancient sun god."

Emlyn and Derrick realized this only after hearing Cattleya's summary!
Audrey sighed again: Ms. Hermit's logic ability is very strong, she can think of so much information so quickly!

"It can be said that." Hobert continued to announce more information to everyone: "According to the reliable information I have learned, the second 'Desecrated Slate' seems to be the remains of the ancient sun, fused with part of his will. "

Everyone immediately showed varying degrees of surprise.

Alger thought to himself: It has always been called the "blasphemous slate", as if it was a naturally formed thing. Unexpectedly, its "main material" turned out to be the remains of the ancient sun god!

Klein was not very surprised: no wonder the "Emperor" guessed that the content displayed on the "blasphemous tablet" was a mode similar to one that could directly communicate with the spirit body. It turned out to be integrated with the will of the ancient sun god!

Emlyn had the urge to scratch his head: Even if the "blasphemous slate" was not a stone tablet, it was actually made of human remains?It sounds scary!
Forsi suddenly thought: I wonder if I can write a book with my will after I continue to advance and become an angel?That way you don’t have to put pen to paper and can write quickly!

Cattleya was stunned for a moment and then asked: "Whose will formed the first 'Profane Slate'?"

"I don't know!" Hobert said simply: "But what is certain is that before the ancient sun god appeared, the first 'blasphemous slate' appeared occasionally."

Alger followed up and analyzed: "Could the first 'Desecrated Slate' be a product of the First Age?"

Derrick looked at "The Hanged Man" and couldn't help but mutter to himself: "The First Age!"

For Silver City, the First Age is also a very distant history, with only very vague records.

Klein also lamented: Has the Tarot Club's intelligence exchange finally touched upon the First Age?Then he discovered that he currently had almost no information about the First Epoch.

Hobert smiled and said: "It's not impossible."

Cattleya sighed: "The First Era! The Era of Chaos! It's a pity that there doesn't seem to be any relevant records left at that time."

This era is like a blank in history. Everyone knows about the existence of this era, but then they find that they have no knowledge about that era.

After everyone thought about it, Hobert said: "The above is all the information I know about the 'Desecrated Slate'."

Then he added: "Please ask Miss Justice to give us some psychological hints, because the information about the old days is not suitable to be brought to the real world."

Of course, everyone had no objections. After accepting Audrey's psychological suggestion, they all thanked the "Emperor". After all, this information was very valuable and helped them straighten their thoughts.

After the topic ended, Alger curiously asked the "Emperor": "Mr. Emperor, when we were in the tomb hall, which path of Extraordinary was the one talking to us?"

Although Alger could not clearly see the "Emperor's" expression, he felt that the "Emperor's" expression was a bit strange at this time, and he only heard the "Emperor" say: "That should be Adam!"

Alger almost slipped off his seat: "Adam...Adam!"

He originally thought that it was at most an angel-level Beyonder, or even only Sequence 3, because he really didn't feel any threat at the time.

And because he had encountered a long-haired monster with invisibility and petrification abilities outside the church, he thought it was just an extraordinary person with invisibility abilities!

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the King of Angels!
He actually witnessed...no, heard a conversation between the King of Angels and the "Emperor"!

This makes him feel like a character in a fairy tale has entered the real world!

Klein was not so surprised because he had already made a guess.

The other members' eyes were darting back and forth between the "Emperor" and "The Hanged Man": Where did they explore last week?Not only did I see a mural with such a huge amount of information, but I also met Adam!
Forsi frowned: Before attending the Tarot Club, Hobert didn't tell me such an important thing!Well, it might be that his relevant memories were sealed, and he only "remembered" them after he came "above the gray fog".

After a moment of surprise, Audrey asked Hobert: "What does Adam look like? How did you escape from there?"

"I don't know." Hobert smiled bitterly: "If He wants to hide Himself, given the current level of the three of us, we may not find it until we die.

“Well, it’s even possible that after we landed on that island, He was already by our side observing us, watching us move forward, watching us fight.

"Not just looking at us, but what we were thinking and what was going on in our hearts was like a book in a library that Adam could look through. We had no secrets from Him."

Although Hobert had sealed all the key memories he could think of, he was still afraid that Adam would learn some key information.

Fortunately, Hobert also knew that Adam could not be so idle and would not relax while staring at a demigod and two Sequence 5s.

Of course, the key is that all three of them have backers!

Everyone was once again shocked by the description of the "Emperor". Such an ability is really terrifying.

Audrey felt a little incredible: "Is this path so terrifying when it reaches the level of the King of Angels?"

"It should be said that every path to the level of the King of Angels is quite terrifying." Hobert smiled: "But the abilities of the two brothers Adam and Amon are particularly weird!"

In fact, after the "Soothsayer" path reaches "High Sequence", no, after Sequence 5, it also begins to develop in a weird direction.

Klein actually felt a chill in his back: It’s hard to imagine that our exploration team at that time might have had four people!Anyway, I only remember three people.

Cattleya also said: "What a terrifying ability! Although we know that Mr. Fool has been providing us with protection, we might as well imagine that there is actually another member who is listening to our party.

"If someone hadn't reminded us, we wouldn't have even realized he existed."

This description made everyone unconsciously feel insecure, and they unconsciously looked at the empty seats around them.

Hobert smiled and said, "Adam doesn't care too much about little people like us!"

Alger nodded: "That's right."

He remembered that Adam seemed more concerned about the status of his "creator".

However, the two people's "singing together" did not comfort everyone, and everyone still felt a little insecure.

Hobert added: "As for how we escaped."

He smiled: "Of course we were let go. You don't think we can escape from the gaze of the King of Angels, do you?
"Even if we escape by chance, as long as we are still in this world, we are likely to be poisoned by poisonous insects that fell into the kettle while drinking water. We are walking on the road as usual, but we happen to encounter If an Extraordinary person loses control of his abilities or is killed because of the improper control of the Sealed Artifact's abilities, he will die easily from a coincidence that will only happen with a small or extremely low probability."

This reminded Klein of what happened to Anderson, but what happened to that guy was a "psychological suggestion" attack from an "audience" channel, making everyone around him regard Anderson as an enemy.

But the attack methods of those ordinary people were very clever, or it seemed that they were able to attack Anderson because of various coincidences.

The scene at that time is still vivid in Klein's mind, and to this day he still doesn't know what the demigod from the "spectator" pathway looks like.

Hobert's description made everyone understand more and more how the "audience" attacks, and everyone almost came to a relatively unified conclusion: it is impossible to prevent!

Finally, Alger sighed: "Fortunately, we have the attention of Mr. Fool and the 'Creator', and Adam did not make things difficult for us."

He believed that even if the two men had not been watching the exploration, listening to Adam's words, he knew very well that the "Emperor" and "The World" were the favored ones of the two great men.

Then other members also realized that even if they encountered the legendary Adam and "The Hanged Man", they had successfully escaped. At least so far, they seemed to be in no danger.

In other words, Adam also has a certain fear of the "Fool" and the "Creator", and will not easily attack their favored ones.

Klein behind the gray fog said in his heart: I am more inclined, Adam hopes that this mural will be spread more widely through "The Fool" and "The Creator".

After all, these two "evil gods" are in a similar situation to Adam, and their forces are not the Orthodox Church. They are considered "gray forces" and do not resist this kind of information.

As this topic came to an end, everyone felt that they had received too many surprises in this Tarot meeting.

After a moment of silence, Emlyn cleared his throat: "I hope to rent a more offensive magical item to complete the rest of the hunt."

Audrey was very interested in this form: "Leasing?
"Oh, yes, with Mr. Fool's testimony, we can indeed conduct leasing transactions with confidence!"

"That's right!" Emlyn sighed in his heart: What a smart young lady.

He smiled and said: "In other extraordinary gatherings, the transaction of renting magical items is almost impossible to achieve due to the lack of sufficient trust and a strong guarantee.

"But in the Tarot Club, with the testimony of Mr. Fool, who is as powerful as a god, we can all conduct such transactions with confidence."

Emlyn's idea seems to have opened a new door for everyone!
Even Klein sighed: This guy's brain circuit is really different. I never thought that such a transaction could be carried out.Do we need to collect a certain percentage of deposit from it?Haha, forget it, then the "fool" will really become an intermediary.

Forsi suddenly discovered that "Lemanno's Magic Book" is very suitable for such a transaction: "I have a magical item here that I can rent to you..."

She briefly talked about the abilities and negative effects of "Lemanno's Magic Book", then thought about it for a moment and said: "The rent is 50 pounds a day.

"But there is one requirement. You can use the abilities in the magic book at will, but when you return it, there must be two more pages of abilities.

“If you use the demigod-level abilities above, you will need four more pages of abilities.

"The ability recorded from you can be repeated, and there is no level limit!"

Emlyn was a little surprised: "There are demigod-level abilities on it?"

Then this hunting is stable!

Even if you encounter a situation like the "Moon Doll" like last time, you can easily solve it!
Cattleya nodded slightly: After all, there is an organization behind Miss Magician!It will definitely provide her with the opportunity to record her abilities at the demigod level.

Alger sighed: Miss Magician’s background is not simple.

Audrey and Klein looked in the direction of Hobert almost at the same time. Those demigod abilities must have been provided by this man!
Emlyn asked: "Is it convenient to reveal what those demigod-level abilities are?"

"Okay." Forsi glanced at Hobert secretly and said, "There are demigod-level 'distortion', 'chaos' and 'utilization'!"

Klein and Audrey said in their hearts almost at the same time: Sure enough!
Cattleya was a little strange: Aren't these all abilities of the "lawyer" path?Did the members of Abraham's family change paths?
Forsi continued: "The demigods who recorded these abilities have tested that when this level of 'distortion' and 'chaos' is used on a Sequence 6 Extraordinary, it can make the opponent completely confused within 12 to 15 seconds. There is no way to get rid of the corresponding state!"

Speaking of this, she felt a little proud in her heart.

Although this may reveal some information about Hobert's abilities, it is like finding a place to talk about how handsome his boyfriend is. In this regard, Forsi is very eager to talk.

In other words, it is not suitable to talk about this information anywhere else. Only in the Tarot Club, when other members do not know Hobert’s true identity, it is okay to talk about it and will not give it to Hobert. What danger does it bring.

And Hobert did not object to such a statement. It was equivalent to a public advertisement. If there is something that cannot be solved and it is inconvenient to ask the "Fool" for help, you can ask the "Emperor" for help.

Reasonable prices and guaranteed after-sales service!

Emlyn was a little surprised when he heard this: "Are you serious?"

Then just find a way to get close to the hunting target, throw a "chaos" over, and the hunting will be over.

Then he asked supplementarily: "Do you really only need me to record four of my own abilities?"

Klein nodded slowly. He had personal experience with this. In the process of defeating the six-winged gargoyle, Hobert used an ability similar to "chaos". As a result, the monster could not get rid of the influence exerted by Hobert until it died. state.

Cattleya sighed: This is the qualitative change of demigods!
Alger also recalled the process of the "Emperor" destroying the six-winged gargoyle: Sequence 6 was as fragile as a child in front of the demigods!
He didn't have much contact with the "Emperor", and he had never met the "Magician" in the real world, so he never thought that the two would be a couple.

Forsi suddenly remembered Hobert's words, so she responded to Emlyn with a smile: "This is the benefit of the Tarot Club!"

"But I still want to thank you for the magical items you provided and the explanation just now." After thanking you, Emlyn asked: "Can you explain the ability of 'utilization' again?"

"This is an ability that I like very much." Forsi smiled and said: "It can extend some states that are beneficial to oneself, or the duration of sustained abilities." Using Sequence 6 as an example as well, states or abilities at this level can be at least One and a half times longer.

“You can also instantly end all negative effects on yourself, as well as the effects of mental attacks.

"If used on the enemy, it can terminate some of the opponent's abilities in advance, such as the 'Morning Sword' and 'Morning Armor' summoned by the 'Dawn Knight'.

"And it can also be used on sealed objects, such as making a level 2 sealed object unusable within 5 to 10 seconds, or strengthening and prolonging the consequences and time of the negative effects of the sealed object."

Klein sighed: This ability focuses on surprise!It is conceivable that if "Creeping Hunger" suddenly becomes unable to be used normally, it will not only cause immeasurable consequences, but also undermine my confidence in combat.

Cattleya frowned and thought: "Using" should also be able to end some spells and ritual magic in advance. This ability can restrain my ability!Fortunately, I had not encountered a demigod-level "lawyer" opponent before.

After listening to the explanation, Emlyn said: "I want to rent this magical item! Well, I'll start renting it from the day after tomorrow!"

Forsi smiled and said, "Okay."

After the transaction was over, Derrick took the initiative and said, "I just learned a new piece of news. It turns out that the former chief of Silver City did not die. He just built a mausoleum for himself and lived in it.

“But he hasn’t been around for a long time, so many people, including me, thought he was dead.

"I heard that the 'Six-person Council' is planning to open the tomb of the former chief. Will such an action bring danger to Silver City?"

Hobert reminded: "Regarding the mausoleum, it is easy to think of the Beyonders of the 'God of Death' path!"

"That's right." Alger thought so too, and then he asked "The Sun": "Your former chief also used to be in the 'Warrior' path?"

"Little Sun" nodded: "Yes, he was once a 'demon hunter'."

"He probably found the corresponding extraordinary characteristics and magic potion formula, and tried to jump to the adjacent path." Alger guessed, and then he asked:
"In the current Silver City, or in the history of Silver City, has there ever been a Sequence 3 of the 'Warrior' path?"

Derrick thought hard and said, "It seems not, at least not now."

"So, can we assume that there is some reason that hinders the promotion of the demigods in Silver City?" Alger once again made a guess based on the clues provided by Derrick.

He said: "In order to gain more power and to try to find a new way out, perhaps your former chief hopes to be promoted to Sequence 3 in an adjacent pathway."

Derrick nodded and agreed with Mr. "The Hanged Man"'s conjecture. Silver City has been making attempts for more than 2000 years, and there are too many tragic stories.

Audrey asked curiously: "Mr. Hanged Man, if the current six-member council wants to open the tomb of the former chief, does it mean that his promotion failed? Or is it for other purposes? What will such an action lead to? What are the consequences?"

Derrick nodded repeatedly, he also had this question.

Klein glanced at the "Death" card on the long bronze table: Maybe there was something wrong with the promotion ceremony of the former chief.

He thought that the "Emperor" should also know this, so he did not let "The World" take the initiative to remind him.

"I don't know about this either." Alger replied while looking at the "Emperor".

The meaning is obvious: a learned "emperor" might know the answer.

So "Little Sun", Audrey and other members looked at the "Emperor" again.

"I heard that the ceremony for promotion to Sequence 3 of the 'Death' path requires a mausoleum of one's own." Hobert reminded again: "The former chief failed to come out on his own, probably because the promotion process was not very smooth. "

He said: “This is inevitable, because no one knows whether the potion formula in the hands of the former chief is complete.

"Even if you know the complete ritual, every promotion after Sequence 6 is very dangerous. At this time, the role of the Beyonder organization is reflected.

"As far as I know, when you are promoted, there is actually some skill in designing the ceremony.

"But Silver City probably doesn't have such information, so we can only explore it on our own."

Everyone seems to have seen Silver City, which has been in a state of exploration for more than 2000 years, step by step to get to where it is now.

This silver city, which has stood in the darkness for more than 2000 years, gradually became majestic.

Hobert said to Derrick: "There is too little information currently known, and we don't know what went wrong, so we can't guess the consequences of this matter.

"I suggest you inquire more and see if you can get more information. Once more information is available, we will help you analyze it."

Derrick was slightly startled: "Okay, Mr. Emperor, I will try my best!"

After the topic ended, "The World" said to Hobert: "The way you mentioned before about how to temporarily obtain good luck has been answered. The specific method of obtaining it will have to wait to find the right time.

"The other party is very satisfied with the price you proposed. You can pay in advance or wait until the time is right."

Hobert smiled and said: "I will make a sacrifice to Mr. Fool at around 5 o'clock.

"Well, the large amount of cash that I just bought for the extraordinary properties was also sacrificed at that time."

Klein controls the "world": "Okay."

At this point, this Tarot session has come to an end. After talking about a few interesting things that happened last week, Klein announced that this Tarot session is over.

……

The land abandoned by gods, the City of Silver.

After returning to the real world, Derrick glanced at the candle on the table as usual. Fortunately, it was not extinguished.

Then he stared at the dim roof for a while, and he could feel the respect of the other members as they talked about the former chief.

He recalled that Mr. Emperor had always helped him, allowing him to conduct transactions with the outside world more conveniently. He believed that Mr. Emperor's help was precisely because of this mentality.

This made Derrick proud and sad at the same time.

I'm proud because Silver City has never given up. It's just that I kept exploring and persevering in the past, which is very respectable.

Sad because they had to do it!

Then, Derrick thought about the mural displayed in "The Hanged Man". He lay on the bed, tears streaming down his face.

During the Tarot sessions, he struggled to endure his grief.

The grief that he had suppressed in his heart suddenly emerged and became out of control.

Derrick did not wipe his tears. He swore that this was the last time he would cry!He swore that if the sun never came back, he would be the sun of Silver City!He vowed to always protect Silver City from the invasion of evil gods such as the "True Creator"!
……

Northern Continent, Feineport Kingdom, South Colson Region, Green Manor.

Hobert and Forsi returned to the real world together again, and the two of them did not get up in a hurry.

Forsi held Hobert's hand: "Now that I think about it, Silver City is not easy."

"Yes." Hobert squeezed Forsi's soft hand: "So if you can help, please help."

Then he stood up and said, "I have to go back to Backlund. I spent too much money at this party."

Forsi smiled and said: "But the harvest is not small."

Hobert put on his coat and said "Hmm": "There will be no socializing tonight. We will have dinner together at the Lord's Mansion."

"it is good."

Hobert kissed Forsi on the forehead, used "travel" to return to Backlund, opened the safe and started counting the money.

He calculated that the cost of this Tarot session was 28850 pounds, plus the 6500 pounds he spent yesterday to buy the black-haired baboon and the psychedelic wind chime tree, and the 13000 pounds he spent to help "Little Sun" buy the magic potion formula. The cost for two days turned out to be as high as 48350 pounds!
As for Hobert's profit from the Tarot meeting this time, not counting the four extraordinary materials from "Little Sun" and excluding Fors's 4 pounds, the final profit was 500 pounds!
Then we still need to sacrifice another 42850 pounds to "The Fool"!
Seeing that the gold pound in the second safe had also bottomed out, Hobert couldn't help but sigh: Have you really spent too much money during this period?

It will take some time for this acquisition to pay back, and for the construction of Longwei Island, Hobert is now regardless of the cost. Although he saved a lot of money by using "Builder Logistics", it only took more than a month. , has invested more than 2 pounds.

The "Earl's Light" light bulb factory and wire factory have already entered mass production. The initial investment was huge. Hobert has recently invested more than 2 pounds.

In order to seize the governance of Longtail Island, Hobert also spent nearly 9 pounds. Fortunately, with the cooperation of Bishop Jyoti, this money has been "reflowed" to about 5 pounds. Otherwise, Hobert would The money in the safe is no longer enough to pay for the tarot session.

Hobert came to the "Country of Disorder" again and "gifted" himself three "worms of time". When preparing to leave the "Country of Disorder", he took a look at the 15 gold pounds and 8 Mando Kinriso.

The two sums of money came from large transactions with Miss Sharon and Simpson respectively. Because Hobert has been relatively rich in money recently, he has not touched this deposit.

He hesitated and decided not to put the deposit aside for the time being. There was still about 15000 pounds in cash in the safe, which should be able to support it for a while.

After counting the money and taking the "Insect of Time", it was already past 4:[-] in the afternoon, so Hobert simply sacrificed to "The Fool" in advance.

Then he performed the "gifting" ceremony and obtained the extraordinary characteristics and extraordinary materials traded at this Tarot meeting.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, he sacrificed the traded items to the "Country of Disorder" and smashed the seals that should be sealed and broken.

When we returned to the Lord's Mansion in South Colson, it was already past 5 pm.

Forsi and Donna were already waiting in the restaurant. Hobert smiled and said, "I heard we're going to eat fish tonight?"

"That's right." Donna smiled and said, "While I was resting yesterday, I went to the dock island and caught a few big fish!"

Just as Hobert was about to praise him, Helen, the captain of the second team of the Special Operations Department, walked in quickly from outside: "Lord! Fortunately, you happened to be at the Lord's Mansion. Something big happened on the west coast."

Hobert was stunned: "Isn't it because the Blood Worship Cult came back?"

"We can't rule out this possibility!" Helen said: "A whole village of people have died now! Teacher Dunn is also at the scene.

"He judged that it should be an attack by extraordinary people in the 'God of Death' path. Teacher Dunn organized us to encircle and suppress the opponent once, but he slipped away!
"We can't rule out that it's the help invited by the Blood Worship Cult, because the other party knows the situation on the West Bank very well!"

Hobert frowned: "You mean, a whole village of people have died?"

"That's right!"

Hobert stood up and picked up his cane: "Let's go to the West Bank immediately."

Forsi and Donna were also going, but because Hobert only had a magical item with the ability to "travel", he could only ask Helen to pick them up later.

Holding Helen's shoulder, Hobert came to the west bank.

The location they arrived at was a valley with lush vegetation, but there were many white skeletons among the vegetation.

Not far away, there are even hills the size of grain piles composed of various bones.

Not far away were Dunn, Elliot, and others. Elliot was the captain of the extraordinary team provided by the Balk family to Hobert's command. He was currently training official extraordinary people in Jeffrey City.

After Elliot's "Baron of Corruption" potion is completely digested, he will take the "Chaos Tutor" potion provided by Hobert and become a Sequence 5.

Because the case encountered this time required a large number of manpower, Dunn also called them for support.

In addition, there are several members of the second team, who are the main force in investigating this case.

After Hobert appeared, Dunn brought someone over: "This case needs your help."

Then he pointed at a man in his thirties with light yellow hair: "This is Raymond from the second team. His team was the first to discover the extraordinary factor in this incident."

Raymond took a step forward and shouted respectfully: "Lord!"

Then he began to report: "In the past week, the security team of Luobi Town has received many similar reports. Basically, people in every village have discovered that there seem to be people sneaking around in the cemetery at night.

“The security team in the small town sent people to conduct an investigation and found that bodies had been stolen.

“During the investigation, they encountered a zombie-like attack and handed the case over to Special Operations.

“After divination, we discovered that the corpses crawled out of the graves on their own, so we determined that this was an extraordinary case.

"After careful investigation, we found that the abnormality actually started to appear three weeks ago. At that time, the body of a deceased person in Lobi Town disappeared, and it was only found far away the next day."

Hobert was stunned: "Three weeks ago?"

"Yes, it is."

Hobert nodded. It was probably around that time that Mr. Azik came to Jeffrey Territory.

Although he had just heard the beginning, he was almost sure that this case must be related to the extraordinary people in the "God of Death" field, and they might not be the helpers of the Blood Worship Cult.

After all, the Blood Worship Cult is not a small organization, and it is unlikely that they would ask Extraordinaries from other channels to help them raid Jeffrey Territory.

To be precise, judging from the intelligence obtained in recent months, the Blood Worship Cult only tried to infiltrate the Jeffrey Territory and had no intention of launching a large-scale attack.

Raymond continued to report. After their investigation and squatting, no abnormality was found. It was not until the day before yesterday that Mike went to the town government to report the crime. After Raymond and the other three communicated with him, they realized that Mike was dead!

They returned to the village before Mike and found that everyone in the village was dead, but they didn't seem to realize that they were dead and were still working as usual.

Raymond and others found no useful clues. When they were about to leave the village, they discovered a pale white skeleton in the village.

Just as they were about to pick up the bones, the bones turned into powder in front of them.

At the same time, the entire village seemed to suddenly realize something. After saying goodbye to their families, or crying or screaming in disbelief, they all turned into corpses.

After losing the clue, Raymond asked Dunn to help. It was already evening when Dunn arrived at the scene.

According to his experience, the skeleton should have been left in the village by an Beyonder of the "God of Death" path, allowing the villagers to move around like living corpses.

The corpse that he crawled out of the grave before should also be the function of this skeleton.

This inference was made because Dunn took out a map and marked the location of the skeletons, as well as the locations where previous cases such as corpses crawling out of the cemetery occurred. It was obvious that the location of the skeletons was in the center.
