Deep in the Living

Chapter 777 Morning Meeting
The next morning.

An all-metal automatic carriage was speeding toward the edge of the middle zone.

The visitor was none other than Mr. Rose, the founder and owner of the new organization, Rose Manor.

His purpose in going to Whirlpool Town was to obtain information about the dungeon. After much consideration, he decided to go alone without any subordinates.

Outside Whirlpool Town, a barrier formed from ashes envelops the area.

He followed and stepped off the carriage, reaching out to touch her.

Generally speaking, Mr. Guo, who is in charge of the town, will receive the information as soon as possible, verify the visitor's identity, and conduct spiritual communication.

Today is different, though.

Mr. Rose did not respond at all, as if Teacher Guo was deliberately ignoring him, or as if the entire Whirlpool Town was rejecting him.

Somewhat emotional, he ultimately put the axe back down.

Having been turned away, he prepared to return home.

But as soon as I turned around, the scene behind me had changed. The car was gone, and it was no longer a desolate wilderness. Instead, it was an alleyway, and at the end of the alleyway was a comic book shop.

The glass door opened.

Teacher Guo, dressed in an executive jacket and carrying a briefcase, came out and bowed his head in thanks as he left.

Mr. Rose couldn't help but follow the gaze, peering deeper.

When he saw the middle-aged man sitting inside, the metal detector in his body instantly went to its highest alarm level.

click!
The glass door is closed, blocking the view.

He then came to his senses, and cold sweat streamed down one half of his face.

Seeing Teacher Guo walking towards them, they quickly asked:
"Mr. Guo, where is this place?"

"The crevice in the corner is the temporary dwelling place of an extraterrestrial god. He has reached a cooperative relationship with our Whirlpool Town. His current attitude is complete neutrality, and he will ensure that the [spatial coordinates] of our world are completely hidden."

Mr. Rose reacted quickly, “The last extraterritorial operation was a deal with this Outer God, wasn’t it? I’m very sorry, but my organization was in the midst of internal strife at the time and was unable to provide effective assistance.”

However, Teacher Guo did not continue the conversation, but instead changed the subject.

"What brings Mr. Rose here today?"

Mr. Rose quickly recounted his agreement with Roddy in detail, emphasizing the various forms of assistance provided by Rose Manor and the gifts of Mr. Jiang's belongings.

Teacher Guo nodded. "Hmm... I roughly know about the deal between you two."

Today, a meeting will be held in Vortex Town, which is open to all core faculty members. Roddy will share all the dungeon information at the meeting.

However, Mr. Rose does not work for us, nor does he have any cooperative relationship with Whirlpool Town. According to your agreement with Roddy, only fair trades are permitted.

After the meeting ended,

We will provide you with information of equivalent value in writing.

Can the value of intelligence be directly measured?

"I will try my best to make an objective assessment, of course..."

Just as Teacher Guo was about to continue speaking, Mr. Rose raised his hand to stop her.

"No need, I'm a free spirit and have a strong competitive drive."

Even if someone in the organization were to emerge who could slightly threaten my position, or even if he were a trusted confidant who had followed me in the past, my narrow-minded heart could not tolerate him.

I know very well why Roddy chose Whirlpool Town as the trading venue, and I also know very well Mr. Guo's intention in having me meet him in front of the comic book store.

However, I still don't want to be subservient to anyone; staying in such an environment makes me very uncomfortable. Let's do an equal exchange according to Mr. Guo's terms; I'll give you as much information as you want.”

Since the other party had made such a statement, Teacher Guo did not press the matter further.

"Will Mr. Rose be waiting in the car? Or will you come with me to Whirlpool Town and find a house to rest in?"

“Normally I can just wait outside, but there’s another part to my deal with Roddy. After handing over the intelligence, we’ll have a friendly sparring match.”

"Then come in together and stay temporarily in one of the VIP reception rooms on campus."

As for the sparring, it will take place directly in the school gymnasium after the meeting. That should be the best place for sparring in the entire middle-level area, and it's less likely for accidents to happen.

"Ok."

The two stepped out of the street passage and arrived directly inside the campus, right in front of a dormitory building.

More coincidentally,
Footsteps could be heard coming from the stairwell, and two women and a man came down together.

The young man at the back immediately noticed the two people outside the door. "Teacher Guo, Mr. Rose?"

Teacher Guo had already raised her hand to greet him, "Luo Di, perfect timing! I need to verify your deal with Mr. Rose. If it's true, I can make some relevant arrangements."

In about an hour, there will be a dungeon information sharing session. You need to be prepared, as all the teachers and some students I have selected will be present. The entire meeting may last more than three hours.

After verifying the transaction information, Professor Guo personally led everyone to the cafeteria for breakfast. Because of an important meeting today, Hunter also came specially to prepare a delicious breakfast for the teachers and students.

As soon as Mr. Rose entered, he smelled a stench, a smell that could only be smelled by the slaughter of thousands, or even tens of thousands of people.

"The same kind? No, the Red Gate monster... When did such a person appear in the corner?"

Just as he was wondering, Hunter, wearing an apron and still sporting his signature spiky hair, came out with a sharp kitchen knife tucked into his waistband.

Mr. Rose was even more curious. He seemed to recognize her, but couldn't quite place her. "Teacher Guo, who is this?"

“Chef Hunter is the head of the school’s cafeteria and is also one of the participants in today’s meeting.”

"Hunter, the villain... No wonder I said I'd seen him somewhere before, I never expected him to have changed so much."

If I'm not mistaken, Roddy's rapid progress during this period, especially in killing, is largely due to Chef Hunter, right?

After the meeting,
I have a trade-like duel with Roddy, and Chef Hunter is welcome to join if he doesn't mind.

After all, Roddy hasn't even opened his garden yet, so it's not quite fair for him to spar with an old man like me who's been in this corner for almost a hundred years. If possible, the two of you could team up and spar with me.”

These words gave Roddy, who was standing to the side, a slight shock.

Hunter's lips twitched slightly, then he declined with a friendly expression, "Sorry, this is a sparring opportunity that Roddy obtained through a deal, so I don't need to participate."

This answer was even more incomprehensible to Mr. Rose.

Even if the person before him tries to suppress this murderous aura, his essence remains unchanged. A serial killer like him is offering an opportunity to kill; whether out of his nature or a habit of killing, the other party should accept it.

"I never expected that the leader of the Eight Evils, who used to eat countless people, would be so humble. It seems that this school really can 'educate and nurture people'."

Just then, Roddy suddenly spoke up, "I don't mind. If Mr. Hunter is willing, let's join in! We often work together in the kitchen anyway."

"Let's talk about it after the meeting."

Teacher Guo also took out a special notebook and handed it to Luo Di, then turned to the crowd and said: "Luo Di will describe his experiences in the dungeon in written form on the spot."

After he finished recording,
I will translate the document word by word to minimize the influence of the past seeping into the dungeon information, so please be patient.

Roddy took the notebook and began to write down his entire experience in detail.

During the writing process,

It's just a normal ink painting, on very ordinary paper.

But as the individual characters took shape and were strung together into sentences, they gradually became strange.

The paper became old and yellowed.
The words seemed to begin to twist and writhe, especially when writing a few keywords, a sense of the past seeped out from between the pages.

Sitting not far away, Gustave, who was idly playing with his tongue, smelled the foul odor once again.

He quickly retracted his tongue, covered his mouth, and shouted, "There's a history!!"
