Chu Yan listened secretly for a long time. The "interesting stories" passed down by word of mouth among the adventurers only went so far. It seemed that after Commander De Luoya captured them, nothing else happened.
The heretics' companions did not come out to support them and simply treated them as abandoned pawns.
Judging from the current information alone, the heretics sneaked into the unused house and dug the big box out of the ground.
As a result, not long after they were dug out, they were probably frightened by the forbidden aura "leaking" from Princess Ye Na, and they didn't even care about the box and ran away in a hurry.
In the end, Chu Yan ran in carrying Princess Ye Na and took over the big box.
Is it possible that those heretics had not just dug out the box, but were preparing to bury it?
"It's unlikely. If that were the case, carrying such an obvious large box would definitely be noticed by adventurers."
Chu Yan stood up and asked Milanqi, the elf lady at the front desk, to help him find out who the owner of the idle house was.
Although the Adventurer's Guild does not deal in "real estate", it has a wide network of relationships and it is very easy to investigate. Just ask a few landlords and you will find out.
After a while, Miss Milanqi said, "The owner of the house was an old gentleman who bought the house a long time ago. He seemed to have passed away a few years ago and hadn't taken care of the house for a long time."
This should be a means for heretical organizations to hide their identities and industries. They put their names on ordinary people, and then when the ordinary people die, their properties and houses become idle, but they can use them at will.
Chu Yan pondered over it with great fear: "Thinking about it this way, although Sister Ye Na's power was slightly out of control at that time, which was an uncontrollable accident, why does it seem like this witch club deliberately sent the sword over?"
Miss Milanqi asked, "What are you looking for that house for? Are you planning to rent it there? I can help you contact other landlords."
There are still a few vacancies in the current station house. Chu Yan shook his head and said, "No need, just asking around."
"Then do you want me to help contact the president? She left the city again yesterday and went home to deal with some things."
If we contact each other, will President Zhilan come back wearing another dress?
Chu Yan waved his hand, indicating that Milanqi didn't need to care about him so much, and said helplessly:
"I'm just here to observe quietly. I'm curious about the daily life of ordinary adventurers. Just do your own thing. Miss Milanqi will attract the attention of others."
The elf lady who was loved by adventurers left, and Chu Yan became a nobody in the guild hall again.
A group of adventurers were walking in and out of the door in a hurry, and those who came in went straight to the commission notice area.
It noted which location deep within the Tower of Babel the guild was going to explore in the near future, and the adventurer used the magic stone to record the environment of that area. After handing in the magic stone and receiving the money, he hurried back to rest, preparing to continue taking commissions.
Such a lucrative and lucrative job like this doesn't come around often.
Some adventurers, realizing that they do not have enough time to explore the current commissioned area, rush to other places to explore in advance, and prepare to hand in the task as soon as the guild's commission is marked in that area.
But there are still many adventurers with sad faces, anxiously recruiting teammates.
Most of them are adventure teams. The old members have joined other adventure groups, so the team is short of manpower and can only recruit new ones.
"Are there any defensive adventurers who can form a temporary team? The team is only one person short of entering the Tower of Babel!!"
"Give me a D cup!!"
This is looking for a D-level healing adventurer.
Ordinary adventurers cannot compare to Chu Yan’s situation. Since they are organized into teams, there are naturally division of labor requirements for the team members.
But all of them are inseparable from the three most reasonable positions of "defense-output-treatment".
Although the identity badge given by the Adventure Guild will not directly indicate your position, the individual strength of ordinary adventurers is limited. They cannot take care of everything and can only specialize in a certain direction.
When each of them is looking for a team to work with, they have to discuss it clearly among themselves, which is not easy.
This position distinction will gradually become blurred as the adventurers' individual abilities develop.
As your wings become stronger, the magic and combat skills you can learn will naturally become more diverse, depending on whether you have the ability to learn them. An assassin can attack and defend with a shield. A priest can make a staff out of iron and use it as a hammer to hit people.
Highlight an evil path.
But in actual combat, tactical arrangements still refer to this model and involve division of labor and cooperation.
However, this kind of distinction is unnecessary among the taboo-holders, as they are all people with maximum offensive and destructive power, and they implement the concept of "offense is the best defense."
Of course, a big part of the reason for this is that the taboo people cannot fight a protracted war, at least that was the case before Chu Yan appeared.
No matter how good the defense or treatment is, it will be useless. If the battle drags on for too long, the forbidden person himself will have problems.
Then he turned into a crazy monster that was devoured by the power, and everyone died together.
But to be honest, Sister Josephine can be regarded as a blessing-type treatment among the forbidden ones.
344
Omega can be considered as a defensive type. He can use [Overload Hardening Bullet] to shoot at himself, take the damage, and then kill the opponent.
Chu Yan was lost in thought for a while, and then the little green-haired Ge Ruien appeared again. He sat dejectedly beside Chu Yan.
"My Lord, I haven't seen you for a few days..."
Chu Yan remembered the last time he saw him, this guy was hooked by a bunny girl again. Judging from his reaction now, he was probably dumped because his wallet was drained?
"Long time no see, you look depressed, what's wrong?"
"Oh, bunny girls always hurt my heart...it turns out they are a bunch of people who can't be trusted." The little green-haired boy was immersed in sadness.
Chu Yan comforted her on the surface, but smiled in his heart. He asked hypocritically, "Did you cheat me of all the money?"
Little Green Hair sighed again: "Most of it was cheated away. The casino is really a sad place. Miss Black Forest who said she loved me last time actually has another man behind my back!"
Isn’t this nonsense? How could someone who cheats on sales get himself hanged over a client?
"I'm glad you've come to your senses." Chu Yan put away his unkind mocking mood and patted his shoulder.
"Well, I recognize the ugly face of the casino. Fortunately, the goddess of fate always favors me. A cat lady in the tavern expressed her love to me."
"...Do I need your help to buy some wine?" Chu Yan smelled something wrong.
"Yes, sir, you are really a prophet! The lady from the cat tribe said that if I bought wine from her, she would get a bonus from the tavern owner. It's like the owner is paying us for nothing and giving us wine for free."
"?"
Chu Yan didn’t know what to say, the little green-haired boy would soon face reality again.
Little Green Hair suddenly remembered something and reminded him seriously:
"Sir, the casino has obtained a batch of dirty stuff from somewhere recently and is preparing to use it as prizes. It looks like they are helping people exchange it for cash. There are taboo items such as necromancy documents, which are euphemistically called mysterious magic books. Sir, be careful not to be deceived. The Sanctuary of Discipline will come to your door."
"......How did you know?" Chu Yan stuffed a few gold coins into his hands.
"Hasn't there been a rumor recently that someone from the Sanctuary of Discipline has appeared here? The casino got scared when they heard the news and moved to the tavern to conduct the operation secretly.
My girlfriend is a waitress there, so I naturally found out some information.”
"..." Chu Yan looked at him with a new respect and stuffed another handful of gold coins into his pocket.
You kid, you didn’t forget your job even when you were cheated!
Chapter 56: The Necromancer (Updated)
Apart from anything else, the little green-haired boy's ability to collect intelligence is really incredible.
Any leak of taboos would bring disaster, so everyone must keep it strictly confidential.
But if you want to prevent information from ever leaking out, it is best to do everything yourself, from big to small, and don't let ordinary people get involved in the chores.
But even if the porter accidentally saw the cargo, he shouldn't be able to recognize it as something like the necromancy document, right?
As Little Green Hair said, he got the information from his cat-man girlfriend, but as for this cat-man waiter...it seems that he could only hear about it from the tavern owner.
The relationship is close enough for her to reveal such information. Could this cat-man waitress be the tavern owner's girlfriend?
Some business owners would actually buy slaves and use them as employees, making them work during the day and at night... as well.
It is indeed possible to hear some secrets by your pillow.
No matter what, Chu Yan still looked at Ge Ruien with sympathy.
He was generous and gave him five gold coins as a deposit for the information, and instructed him: "Thank you for your hard work. If you have any new information, tell me as soon as possible."
The little green-haired boy's eyes lit up. He knew that this might be the biggest financial sponsor he had met in the past ten years, and he must serve him well!
He said in a sonorous voice, "Okay! No problem! But sir, what kind of information do you want? I will investigate it specifically."
"What are the dirty things you mentioned? Which casino entrusted the tavern owner with the gambling? When did it take place? Investigate if you can. If you can't, don't force it. Safety comes first."
Chu Yan was worried that the little green-haired boy would lose his life if he kept asking around.
Everyone knows that this kind of business is a life-threatening one, so people are bound to be ruthless when doing it.
Groen felt trusted and motivated, and said seriously:
"Don't worry, I will definitely win over my catgirl girlfriend and make her tell me everything! I will never let you down!"
"......" Chu Yan was speechless, and reluctantly said, "After this, Ge Ruien, why don't you dye your hair?"
"Do you think my hair is too lively? Okay, I'll dye it later."
Chu Yan left the Adventurer's Guild, and Ge Ruien prepared to win over his girlfriend, the wine waiter.
He first went to the stinky alley to open the sluice gate and release the water. Amid the sound of dripping water, he suddenly remembered Chu Yan's words.
Groen lowered his head and looked at himself in the water mirror on the ground.
"It's time to dye my hair. Bright colors will make people think I'm immature and unreliable."
So, Groen dyed his hair dark green and combed it.
345
In the middle, he went to find his girlfriend to get information.
The more grateful he felt to Chu Yan, the more it allowed him to balance his work and his relationship.
......
Chu Yan returned to his base, lay down on the sofa in the living room on the first floor, and fell into a daze.
Janet just came out to pour some water and saw Chu Yan sitting alone on the sofa, so she sat over and started a conversation with him.
She placed the water she had just drunk next to Chu Yan, as if pouring him a cup of tea. After all, given their relationship, they wouldn't mind such a small thing.
"You're just sitting here alone instead of chatting with Xia Nuoya and the others. What are you thinking about so intently?"
Janet bought a new set of clothes these two days, but the change is only "new", the style has hardly changed.
Over the belly-baring vest, she paired a smart jacket with thin and agile tight trousers, showing off her slim and hot waist and hip curves.
She untied the high ponytail at the back of her head to avoid it hitting her head while she was lying down, and then she lazily "fell" on the sofa, ready to chat with the little lord in the most relaxed manner.
"I was thinking about the necromancer sister in the castle when we were in Paradise. I didn't even know her name yet..."
Janet was silent for a while, then asked unexpectedly, "Why did you think of her?"
If you don't mention it, you would almost forget it exists!
He forced a smile and said, "I just happened to hear some information this morning, which included forbidden items such as the 'Dead Soul Document', so I thought of that sister."
At most, Chu Yan had met the necromancer a few times by chance when he first arrived in Paradise City.
The only time I had any contact with her was after I first entered the nightmare space.
He had been unconscious for a long time, so Janet and the others called out the necromancer to check on Chu Yan to see what was wrong and used their mental strength to recover for him to the best of their ability.
Although I'm not a professional healer, it's not that I can't use my skills.
The intersection ends here.
After that, she disappeared in Paradise City because her time was about to come to an end and her power was almost completely out of control.
Under the circumstances at that time, the miracle formation was weakening, and the blood moon appeared for the first time (the first time in Chu Yan's knowledge), and the conditions of some taboo holders worsened.
Living under the same roof, they didn't want themselves to become a hidden danger and threaten the lives of their companions by losing control, so they quietly left the Dead Sea border first.
For them who are about to reach the end, they don’t need to care about the pursuit of the Sanctuary of Discipline. It doesn’t make much difference anyway, as long as they don’t cause trouble for their companions.
If things get out of control in Paradise, only the Taboos can clean up the mess, but this will accelerate the deterioration of the Taboos' condition and implicate their companions.
Most of them who leave the Dead Sea border will choose to return to the place of their memories, but whether they can go back is a question.
The power reached the critical point of being out of control, and without the suppression of the miracle array, they were like people falling from a cliff, falling faster and faster, and they might not have enough time to get back.
Some of the taboo-followers, perhaps having no place to return to, walked towards the depths of the nearby ocean and disappeared without a trace.
This kind of farewell should be regarded as an unspoken tradition among the Dead Sea taboo followers.
