Witch, don't be so lazy

Momo waved to the girl.

An Ke was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed, feeling a little puzzled and surprised.

The main reason was that she remembered that she had set up the scene, and when she left the underground palace, there were still many undead inside, but she didn't care about them at all. How come they are all dead now?

Could it be that just now...

Enter the underground palace.

The original hall has been completely changed.

The messy stone pillars and spikes were the culprits, ruthlessly crushing the undead, including Silver Fang's most proud black warrior.

To be honest, whether it is Anke or other second-level mages, it is not easy to kill the black warrior head-on.

At least as far as Anko was concerned, she felt that telekinesis magic alone would probably not be able to break the opponent's defense. They were too tanky, and the undead did not have the sense of pain and many flesh and blood weaknesses of living creatures. She probably had to rely on the Eye of Judgment to inflict soul damage to have some chance of winning.

But now, Silver Fang, who prided himself on being one of the best summoned creatures of the same level in the Well of Silence, now has only half of his body left, and the rest is embedded in the wall, mixed into the mud and rocks.

The soul fire had long since dissipated, and the same was true for hundreds of undead in the entire stronghold.

An Ke was not surprised that Momo was able to deal with them, but she was surprised that she could do it in such a short time, at such a long distance, and silently.

"What kind of spell is this?"

"A high-level spell that turns fossils into mud. While it's usually used for building houses and shaping things, it's also effective in combat."

Xiao Hui replied.

"How amazing! They actually took care of so many terrifying undead spirits in one go."

"It's not that the spell is powerful. Other third-level earth school mages can't turn fossils into mud on such a large scale. No matter how skilled they are, it won't work because it requires other things to cooperate."

Xiao Hui smiled.

Although the thought processes of his contractors were worrying, there was no need to worry about their combat effectiveness and attainments in the School of Earth Studies.

In addition to mastering many Earth School spells, Momo also practices unique earth vein magic.

You must know that since the establishment of the Northern Tower until now, the only person who has the ability to connect to the earth veins by himself without relying on large magic arrays or the joint casting of spells by many people is Momo, except for Lord Kumo.

Even Lord Kumo was able to freely cast earth magic only after he was promoted to Legend and mastered the power of the relevant fields.

However, Momo was able to connect to the earth veins through her divine resonance ability when she was very young. Although she could not compare with the witch's innate power, she was undoubtedly the "darling of the earth."

If she were thrown into the former Dwarven Kingdom, before it was incorporated into the Old Empire, she would have been the chosen king. If she was thrown into the old Empire after it was incorporated into the Old Empire, she would have been the next ruler of the Hellfurnace.

"Sister Momo is really amazing."

An Ke didn't know the secret information, but she sensed the girl's extraordinary fighting ability. No, as early as when she mentioned that the clay doll's resonance range was as long as forty kilometers, this exaggerated distance had already reflected something.

I just don't know who will be stronger if a real fight breaks out, compared to the veteran apostle Bro.

But it should be fine, right? At worst, we can call on the City Lord of Kunda. We can definitely handle it... Hmm, I just don't know if the City Lord can leave the bottom of the giant tower...

An Ke followed Momo while thinking.

They entered the church.

For an instant.

A cold wind blew past, like the icy airflow ejected after an ancient coffin was chiseled open.

Momo threw out something that looked like a burning stick, which turned into a ball of light in mid-air, immediately illuminating the dark space.

The inside of the church was also in a mess.

A large part of the complicated magic circle on the ground was broken, and the grooves were filled with dark blood. Whether it was the place for worship or the high altar, there was nothing there.

Only the tall hexagram statue, with the deep hole in the middle, stares indifferently at everything below.

"It's all gone. Oh, it might have turned to ashes. There are traces of burns on the ground, and there was a strong wind blowing... Ah, that skull communication is still there!"

Xiao Hui looked around and found that in the shadow against the wall, in addition to a large number of broken candles and incense burners, there were also familiar communication props.

"It seems that due to little Anke's interference, the ritual went awry. I don't know if I summoned the wrong evil spirit or angered it, but it ended up taking out everyone present in one swoop. Luckily, you ran fast, or you would have been dead."

Momo muttered a few words and took out a magnifying glass from her bosom. "I didn't expect that what was written in the book was actually true. There really was a cultist who tormented for a long time and finally sacrificed himself..."

"Ms. Anke, how much of the conversation did you hear between Silver Fang and that Lord Bro?"

Geckos are concerned with another issue.

"As for what I just said, I didn't hear much. Silver Fang said some things before presiding over the ceremony... about the Wailing Angel, Wusu's whispers, erosion, dracoliches, skeleton dragons... and so on. These were the exchanges with the Skull Head. Later, before the ceremony, Silver Fang also deliberately mocked the Disaster Cult, the Asda Family, and, uh, the Kunda City Lord and Sutur..."

In order to explain the source of the information, Anke put the blame on Yin Ya and Bro.

Actually, that’s true. They were the ones who said it on their own initiative.

"...This information should be very important. It feels like they're secretly plotting something big. And why...why did so many people suddenly appear behind the Silver Fang? The Order of Calamity has the Blightbringer, and the Well of Silence has Apostle Bro. He seems to be an undercover agent..."

An Ke spoke weakly.

"That's normal. Infighting is common among those cults... This information is very important. Miss Anke has made another great contribution! Although she experienced a life-or-death crisis, she successfully escaped, thwarted the Well of Silence's conspiracy, defended Arthda City, and received a commendation... Thinking of this, does Miss Anke feel better?"

Xiao Hui is still comforting.

"Yeah, I feel a little better. Thank you, Xiao Hui."

An Ke nodded rapidly, mainly because she had heard the praise. She was indeed looking forward to it. If nothing else, at least she could go to the city lord's treasury again.

Moreover, she would probably be able to get a lot of things from the Well of Silence - she had hidden some of the precious spell books and props, and had no time to deal with the rest, but she thought that as long as she asked, she would definitely be able to get a lot.

In this way, he could make up for what happened that night. He provided information smoothly without exposing his relationship with the abyss or revealing that he was an apostle of the Eternal Death Star.

You know, although the anonymous identity can be cancelled, the snowy owl transformation given to her by the Moonlight Goddess cannot be cancelled, and she is reluctant to throw it away. What if the Northern authorities investigate her and find out that she has nothing to do with the Eternal Death Star, but she is really related to the legendary demon Shax and has a connection with the Moonlight Goddess... Well, that seems to be quite troublesome. Doesn't this also count as collusion with the abyss?

Fortunately, everything is going well at the moment.

An Ke was feeling happy when she suddenly felt her body lighten.

Someone supported her arms and lifted her up.

"Sister Momo, what are you doing?"

An Ke was bewildered.

She didn't understand why Momo suddenly performed the "lift high" technique on her. Was this some special celebration ceremony?

"Little Anke, the great detective Momo just took a look at you and confirmed that you have not been contaminated or possessed."

Momo opened her amber eyes, looked at the cute little Loli she held high, and asked curiously,

"But can you explain why you suddenly have so many scorching sun spirits?"

Chapter 122: Getting Away with It

Although the base of the Well of Silence is simple, just like the spell books it collects, it is small but complete, and there are many ingenious designs in the building.

Not to mention the traps, storage compartments and hidden emergency escape passages, the sanctuary used for wishes and prayers was also deliberately designed with echo and reverberation effects to make the collective praise of the Eternal Death Star by the believers more magnificent.

An Ke had actually seen that scene on the podium before, and now she felt it again.

Especially at this moment when it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, Momo's sudden and undisguised shouting was really confusing.

The sound echoed loudly, and Anke began to shake his short legs restlessly. He also secretly kicked Momo twice in an attempt to break free.

But Momo had no intention of stopping, she just smiled and turned around like a windmill, then stared at Encore with her big eyes.

She had an expression on her face that said, "I'll play in circles with you. When you've had enough fun, tell me what's going on, or I won't let you down."

Well, I can’t escape after all.

An Ke pursed her lips, feeling a little regretful.

She was not surprised that Momo could detect the sudden increase in the Fiery Sun Spirituality.

After all, Anke had used the Eye of Judgment to sweep around before, and was almost blinded by the crimson light that was as bright as a light bulb.

It would be fine if ordinary mages didn't have the means to sense spirits, but Momo had already demonstrated the prop of a magnifying glass that could detect spirits in the afternoon, and then she ran wildly and slid to her knees, and gave away a clay doll by the way.

Enke originally thought that since it was only a few hours later, Momo might not use it again for a while. However, it was very regrettable that Momo acted as she pleased, or in other words, she was a pure fool most of the time, but sometimes she was quite sharp and cautious.

And as long as props are used, it will definitely not be hidden.

Fortunately, Encore is always prepared.

She also vaguely guessed that the clay doll had a positioning function. She had even considered the possibility of Momo breaking in during the sacrificial ceremony. That was the most troublesome situation, but now it is much better.

"...Sister Momo, I don't know why I was suddenly exposed. I was hiding well this afternoon, but after the ceremony, the spell that concealed my spirituality became ineffective."

An Ke pouted in grievance, looking confused and sad.

"I spent a ton of money and had to complete incredibly difficult tasks before finally getting this spell. The old man said it would definitely last until the end of the magic exam, but who knew it would be exposed out of nowhere."

This statement came out.

Momo and Xiaohui were both stunned.

For a long time.

Little Gecko spoke first: "Miss Anke, what you mean is that you actually had a lot of Fiery Sun Spirituality from the beginning, but you just hid it before?"

"Ah."

An Ke nodded weakly. "I got it over a month ago during a spiritual tour. The old man noticed it and said it was too conspicuous. For safety reasons, he told me not to tell anyone and even offered to cover it up for me..."

The words were a mixture of truth and falsehood, and the blame was directly put on the old man's head.

There was no other way. She wanted to distance herself from the Well of Silence as much as possible, but she didn't want to directly expose her identity as the First Priest of the Dark Sun Lord.

Because according to Celine Weir, His Majesty, the seventh seat of the Tower Council, "The Almighty", has been pursuing things related to the Dark Sun of the Abyss - although in the mouth of the Saint, this seems to be a good thing, which can attract the attention of the Legend, and even if he doesn't want to be a priest anymore, he can beg the other party to help cancel the contract.

But in Anke's opinion, there are simply too many problems here.

First of all, Celine Weier only heard it from others. As a member of a witch-hunting group far away in the Papal States, even if she got news from the North, she had no means to verify its authenticity. Who knew if it was a smokescreen or a bait for fishing?

Moreover, attracting the attention of legends and the interest of high-level spellcasters may not necessarily be a good thing. What if the other party is a typical wizard who is ruthless and profit-oriented, and who randomly captures people as experimental subjects? That would be troublesome.

Even if it has to be exposed, it cannot be done casually - never treat a large organization as a creature with a unified will. Unless it is a swarm or a gestalt, there must be various voices and factions in it. If An Ke really wants to be honest, she must be careful and it is best not to get involved in the fight, especially since she has no background.

Even though Anke didn't have a complete understanding of the forces in the tower, she was not stupid. Especially after hearing about Sutur's deeds, it was obvious that the people in the south were all from the Black Rock City faction, and Momo was one of them.

Honestly speaking, if Anke were to choose for herself, even though Cedar Town was in the south, she would not even consider Black Rock City. She would rather go find Lorena and the Barromont family, which belonged to the "Golden Witch".

Although Yang Bao kept shouting that he was being abused, An Ke felt that based on the lamb's carefree and cheerful attitude, as well as his exaggerated reputation in the North, his status was probably even higher than he imagined.

Plus, Yangyang was chosen by the Winter Witch, and Gaga threw him over to raise him. Based on my remote perception, he seemed to be doing quite well, so it was only natural for me to go over there...

A lot of things were going through her mind, but in reality, An Ke was always on edge, fearing that Momo would suddenly have an impulse and force herself to drink truth serum.

If that was the case, then she would have no point in struggling and would have to tell the truth. Fortunately, she still had the ability of the Moon Snow Owl, which could at least deceive some of the content, such as the system.

But unexpectedly, Momo's next sentence made Anke stunned again.

"Oh, the old man that little Anko is referring to should be Mr. Hans Dorokichi, right?"

Xiao Hui also had an expression that was both unexpected and reasonable.

"Miss Anke is so young and has such impressive magical skills. It's incredible that she could do it on her own. She must have received some guidance from others. The only person worth noting in Xueshan Town is probably the Mammon Order's Steward Hans."

It paused. "I couldn't confirm it before, fearing it was just a coincidence. But Miss Anke is clearly a Chaos School mage, and she also possesses a high degree of skill in shadow hiding. Combined with your subconscious decision to head to the Mammon Society's base in Asda City, it's clear you have a certain fondness for this organization. This is likely because someone once left a good impression on you. Everything fits perfectly."

"After listening to Miss Anke's words, the spell that can conceal spiritual power, which even Momo can't detect with props, is probably the super-level magic shadow weaving. It can be proved that the person is Mr. Hans."

"?"

An Ke couldn't help but feel a little confused.

This series of analysis is indeed quite reasonable.

But the problem is, why does this old guy seem to be of great importance?

Because of the Winter Witch incident, she could see that the old man had connections with the Northern officials, which is why she chose to pass the blame.

At worst, she could wait until the devil's test was over and the old man showed up to "mock" her, then she would explain in detail. Anyway, Hans already knew that she had gained perception skills and a portion of the Fiery Sun Spirit after touring the spirit world. Now it was just a few billion more, so he should understand... right?
