Vol 47 Chapter 15: :out of expectation

The tip of the pen swiped across the paper and made a swishing sound. Liz, who was reviewing documents, was like a reviewing machine incarnated by Mo De's feelings, with an expression that she knew nothing and could not see anything.
"I haven't seen you for more than two months, so you have arranged for yourself a little secretary?"
Sin Yas, who threw a dried fruit in his mouth, opened his mouth, this guy was as natural as he was at home, after all, he was thick-skinned.
"Bai Ye, are you looking for me this time?"
Sin Yass began to pretend to be confused, as did Wood on the side.
"..."
Su Xiao didn't answer. For a while, the atmosphere was a bit awkward. It is worth mentioning that Boubo Wang, Eminem, and Baja seemed to have long thought of this, so they slipped away in advance.
"Don't be so nervous, Wood, this is your fault. Bai Ye has been looking for the location of Dead Silent City, but you are hiding in the dark. Is this really okay?"
Sin Yas looked at Wood with a look of disdain and contempt. Wood didn't say anything, but what he said in his heart was that, regardless of shamelessness, I would be inferior to you.
"Don't look at me like that. I'm different from you. I hide in the dark to find opportunities. Before, I asked my daughter to assist Bai Ye. If you don't believe me, ask him."
"..."
Su Xiao didn't speak, he was used to Sin Yas's behavior.
"You are so shameless."
Wood really couldn't hold back his exit.
"Fuck! I call this a plan."
Sin Yass is still calm, and he doesn't know, and thinks that he has made too much contribution to the search for the dead city.
"The past is not important, turn the page, after we discuss and discuss."
Sin Yass changed the subject, he put away his half-joking tone, and his expression gradually became serious. He first turned his head to look at Wood, and after making eye contact with each other, both of them looked directly at Su Xiao, Sin Yas said:
"Bai Ye, the two of us this time, one was sent by the elders, and the other was here on behalf of the interests of the ethnic group. You must already know the purpose of our visit. There is news that a black tree appeared in the root of the dead city. maple."
Speaking of this, Sin Yass tone paused, and after tapping his finger on the table twice, he continued: "Now not only the Meteorite and the Devil Race, but also the Arcane Eternal Star, the Feather Race, and the Night Witch Guild have factions. People come, and there is no need to say more about the purpose.

Having said this, Sin Yas said with a strange look: "I have read all the information about this matter, but I feel that this matter... is a bit familiar, no, not a bit, it is very familiar. smell."
Sin Yas touched his chin with a contemplative look.
"In the tree-born world, this is how we lead people to Beicheng to die and help us share the risk."
Wood explained the mystery in one sentence, Sin Yass patted the table casually, and said: "Yes, the method is similar, but this time it is more thorough, Bai Ye, this matter... It won't be planned by you, I remember, you The armguards that have been worn all the time come from the dead city."
"..."
Su Xiao twisted the [Holy Divider] in his hand, and was studying this wonderful thing, and seemed to have not heard what Wood and Sin Yass said at all.
To be frank about everything? Of course not, Wood and Sin Yas, one represents the Devil Race, and the other is ordered by the elders to come here. If they admit it bluntly now, the two of them will definitely not be able to come down, what should they do after that? All the resources to enter this world are consumed. After the result comes, I know that this is a game set up by "good teammates". What should I do with the loss? How to explain to family members or elders?
But if it is completely concealed, it will be impossible to cooperate in the follow-up. In cooperation with these two "good teammates", you can calculate each other during the period, and finally fight because of the uneven distribution of spoils, but at the beginning of cooperation, you must not hide key information.
Therefore, Su Xiao wants to let Wood and Sin Yas know in his heart that this is the situation he arranged, and it is the same as what the three of Beicheng arranged.
Su Xiao took off the Black King's armguard, slammed, and put the metal armguard on the table. Seeing this, Sin Yas took it and felt it for a while, only to feel the characteristics of the dead silence above, but it was different from the dead silence city. , not so direct.
This is the dark world, the origin of the dead city, it is not difficult to sense whether an item is related to the dead city, especially the ancient gods like Sin Yas.
After discovering this, Sin Yass looked suspicious, he handed the armguard to Wood, Wood sensed for a moment, Tong Yan condensed a little, and seemed to be a little confused.
If you want to use the black king's armguard to spy on the cause and effect of Su Xiao and the root cause, the city of dead silence, of course it is impossible. The black king's armguard is at most a link. What really makes this cause and effect appear is that Su Xiao uses the dead silence to come many times.
Even before entering the branch, Silent City, you had to carry the [Sanctuary Stone] with you, so as to slowly consume the [Sanctuary Stone] to avoid being attacked by the dead silence.
The ability of the Black King's Armguards, "Death Comes", is basically to drag part of the environment of the city of death and attack the enemy with the energy of death.
In other words, if you enter the root of the city of Silence without the [Shield Stone], it is no different from entering the realm of "Death Comes".
"Dead Silence (Set Ultimate Ability Active): After this ability is turned on, the surrounding 600 meters will be assimilated by Dead Silence City at high speed, causing erosion damage of 5% to 23% of the maximum HP limit per second. If enemy units are shrouded in Dead Silence If you move within the range, the erosion damage and erosion speed you will suffer will be greatly increased (the erosion damage and erosion speed will increase by 2 to 6 times, depending on the enemy's physical attributes and movement speed)."
Right now, Wood and Sin Yass only sensed the Black King's armguards, and of course they couldn't see the clues.
"Is it possible that you were also attracted by intelligence?"
Sin Yas still had a bit of suspicion in his eyes.
"Yes."
Su Xiao took out a photo. It was the one he took. Many dead people seemed to be holding black tree species in the air. However, this photo was not a replica, but an original photo.
There is the original photo, and the implication in it is very obvious. It is almost said that the photo that can best prove that there is a black maple tree in the root of the dead city was made by Su Xiao himself.
Sin Yass was about to take the photo, but Su Xiao raised his hand and gave the photo to Wood. The reason is that Sin Yas's location is not known for its technology, while the void where Wood is located has extremely developed technology. Based on what Wood has seen and heard, there is a high probability that you can see the difference in this photo at a glance.
After Wood took the photo, as soon as the photo was taken, he paused and said inadvertently, "I still have the means in Bai Ye to get the first version of the photo."
Hearing this, Sin Yass understood everything, and his smile at this time was a little strange, as if the whole person was not very good.
"I personally feel that the black maple tree in Silent City is not very reliable."
As Wood spoke, he seemed to let out a low sigh.
"It doesn't matter whether it is reliable or not, we have come here. If we don't get some good things in Dead Silent City, we will lose a lot, but I heard that Dead Silent City has many treasures from the age of the gods."
Sin Yas's words are actually revealing that he already knew that the black maple tree in the dead city was fabricated by Su Xiao, but it has come now, and Su Xiao has not concealed the false information of the black maple tree, and so on. Under the premise, of course, we must join forces and make a fortune in the dead city.
Wood's idea is that this is the end of the matter, and it is meaningless to investigate the losses that have been fooled. Even if it is pursued, what can it be? A fight with Su Xiao? and then? What's the benefit of this? It is better to find a way to make a fortune in the dead city, and then divide the loot among the Hui clan, that is the way to bring practical benefits to the elders and juniors in the clan.
As for the final uneven distribution of spoils, this will be discussed after the plan is successful.
Caesar, who was sitting beside him, never said a word. This guy was very cunning. He was also one of the arrangers of the "Fake Black Maple Incident", but he pretended that nothing happened.
At present, the foundation of cooperation has been laid, and the follow-up action is the key point.
"Baja."
As soon as Su Xiao's voice fell, Baja suddenly appeared and landed on his shoulder, saying: "This is the case, you should all know about the Wadi family incident. Do you need me to introduce it?"
"Need not."
"I know important information."
Wood and Sin Asdu expressed their position. Seeing this, Baja nodded and continued:
"After the death of the old monster, the situation in the high-walled city became clear. Now we want to find the entrance to the dead city. We must meet two points: 1. Get the exact location of the entrance from the academic school, and 2. Find out how to enter.
The second point is ready. The goddess is upstairs. When there is time, I will ask her how to enter the entrance to the dead silent city. "
After listening to Baja's brief narration, both Wood and Sin Yas knew the problem at hand, as long as the academic school was dealt with, and then they could focus on the root cause, Silent City.
"Give me...two days."
Sin Yas suddenly opened his mouth and planned to discuss the plan, so that Su Xiao and Wood, who were wearing masks of pain, were brought to Stigma Academy, and they were all surprised.
"What kind of help do you need?"
Su Xiao looked at Sin Yas suspiciously, and really didn't guess what plan this guy had.
"You don't need any assistance, you are waiting for my good news..."
In the middle of Sin Yas's words, a shout came.
"Where is the goddess!!"
A somewhat sharp, more angry voice came and turned.
Boom!
The window of the office was shattered, and the glass shards splashed around. A young girl with a single ponytail and a sharp temperament... No, it should be a teenager who jumped in and landed in a half-squatting position. This teenager has the same appearance as Liz. a fight.
This person is one of the guards of the goddess. He agreed to wait for the goddess at the tea party to complete the handover of the guards. However, he did not wait for the goddess for a long time. Later, he learned that the goddess was kidnapped by the treatment center.
Under the help of several Stigma Academy instructors, this young man, Zekaya, came to rescue the goddess.
Zekaya came to rescue the goddess, of course, relying on it. According to the lock of his companions, the goddess was nearby, so they split up. At the same time, his companions will take the opportunity to rescue the goddess, perfect!
Although Zekaya claimed that he was not the opponent of the vice president of the treatment hospital, it was fine to hold him back for a while.
In the office, Zekaya stood up and looked directly at Su Xiao. As the saying goes, the plan did not change quickly. Zekaya wondered who the other three people were sitting around the desk at this time.
Zekaya's perception was fully opened, and in the next moment, he saw a scene that he would never forget in his life. Opposite him, a huge skull with a dark but burning green flame smiled at it. It felt as if he would take his The soul is torn out and sinks into the dark, claustrophobic depths of never-days.
On the side, there seems to be a humanoid tentacle monster, that kind of weird and dark feeling that comes from the depths of the soul, just a glance, it makes people seem to suffer from the erosion of the spiritual level, it seems that the next second, he will be because of the direct Looking at this existence, a large number of black tentacles burst out of his body, and finally his reason evaporated with a whimper.
To the back, there seemed to be a huge blood beast half-hidden in the darkness, it seemed to be cold, and it seemed to be grinning, Zekaya had a feeling that this was the most dangerous.
On the far right, the turbid yellow and the deep black are intertwined. Half of this existence makes people feel not threatening, while the other half makes people tremble physically and mentally.
With a grunt, Zekaya swallowed. His thought at the moment was that he agreed to a duel.
After a while.
"Woo! Woo!!"
Zekaya was tightly bound by the black tentacles born on his back, he twisted on the ground like a caterpillar, his eyes were angry.
The space fluctuations flashed away, Su Xiao appeared, and he just went to the fourth floor. The attacking Zekaya was just a smoke bomb, and someone else rescued the goddess.
With a thud, Su Xiao threw a masked woman tied by a broken line on the floor.
Black smoke rushed into the window, and the next second, Wood appeared, also holding a bound masked woman in his hand. Judging from their body shape, the two masked women were very similar, maybe they were twin sisters.
After a while, Ms. Marina knocked on the door, carrying a famous man on her shoulders, who was the driver and who drove the goddess before.
As the saying goes, the family is neat and tidy, and the goddess is in a similar situation right now. Her four guards were caught neatly.
"Where is this person, so stunned?"
Sin Yass laughed, not laughing, but this so-called rescue plan, which is really confusing.
The four people who were captured were all placed in the dungeon on the third basement level of the treatment hospital. The dungeons just happened to be empty recently, and now a group of residents has been welcomed again.
Regarding the current situation, Su Xiao has a general understanding of the attitude of the Saintess' lineage. It seems that they sent people to rescue, but in fact, they sent three Hanhans, plus one who deliberately gave away the head.
It can be seen that the attitude of the Holy Maiden's lineage is that they neither want to offend the treatment hospital nor provoke the academics, as long as they ensure that the goddess is fine, everything else can be said, but if the goddess suddenly becomes determined to rise, they will not say anything. The way to open the entrance to Dead Silent City, Su Xiao took some measures here, the Saintess lineage is willing to pretend to be blind, but must not kill people.
People from the logistics department quickly arrived, and as the middle-aged man with retrospective ability repaired the building, in the afternoon, nothing seemed to have happened.
Sin Yass and Wood left at noon, it is not clear what Wood is going to do, but Sin Yas will take the matter of dealing with the academy to himself this time, which makes Su Xiao and Wood have no idea.
It's not that I think Sin Yass can't deal with the academics, but I'm worried that Sin Yass has any plans to implement.
One day in the afternoon, Su Xiao received news from Boubowang that Sin Yas had left the city, and his whereabouts were unknown.
This makes it even more incomprehensible. If you are dealing with academies, even if you don't directly compete with them, you shouldn't leave the city.
Considering that Sin Yas has always been doing things like this, I can only wait and see for two days now. If it really doesn't work, I will adopt the old Yinbei siege tactics, everyone on my side will end, and I will work on the Stigma Academy from multiple angles. Doubt until life.
Thinking so far, Su Xiao took Boubo Wang and Baja upstairs, and when he reached the corridor on the fourth floor, he saw Hughes guarding by a metal door.
After opening the door, the goddess standing in front of the window thinking about life came into view. Su Xiao took off his long leather jacket and threw it to Baja, then rolled up the cuffs of his shirt and took out a leather roll bag. A centimeter-long crystal needle, this thing is called "thorn of mercy".
"You are a goddess, and you are severely tortured. It is not in line with the dignity of both you and me. If you can hold up five, I will let you go."
Su Xiao pointed to the bed and motioned for the goddess to lie on her own, so as not to be caught and lose the grace and decency of the goddess.
When the goddess saw such a battle, she immediately felt her legs soften, like cotton on the soles of her feet. If she faced severe torture, she could really grit her teeth and resist the first resistance for her identity, but in the face of this kind of calm tone, she even felt ashamed. It was as natural as to call her to eat, but it made her feel cold throughout her body.
"You, what are you asking, you are asking, and I... I didn't say I didn't say it."
When the goddess said this, her tone was very aggrieved. She was deliberately pretending to be pitiful. Baja had asked many times before how to open the entrance to the dead city, but she always pretended to be stupid.
"Then eat and talk."
Su Xiao put away the roll bag, opened the door, and the dining car was pushed in. After a while, several delicacies were placed in front of the goddess. From yesterday's being to now, the goddess has only eaten two pieces of bread. is hungry.
The chef apprentice who brought the meal gestured to pour a glass. Su Xiao raised his hand to stop it and took the wine bottle. He and the goddess sat across the small table, put the wine glass on the table, and poured a glass of red wine.
"Tell me, how to open the entrance to the dead silent city."
Su Xiao pushed the glass to the goddess's plate. After the goddess picked it up, she took a sip and said, "Only I can open it."
"..."
Su Xiao stopped talking. Seeing this, the goddess quickly added: "To be precise, it is the things in my body that can open the entrance. You just need to take me there, and that's it."
"What's in you?"
Su Xiao is interested. If the things in the goddess can really open the entrance to the dead city, will this thing resonate with the entrance? Entrance.
"It's my heart. Only my beating heart can open the sealed door. It was the door that was sealed by the academic school. They know the location. As a constraint, we all master the opening method."
The goddess did not choose to continue to conceal it, but revealed it in full. According to what she said, the way to open the door was actually not that mysterious. It was to use the blood resonance. Only those who resonate with her bloodline can temporarily unlock this forbidden lock.
As for the Sanctuary key that Su Xiao obtained before, it was not used to open this door, but to open an important place inside the dead city.
The Healing Church played a leading role in sealing the Dead City at the beginning, so after that, the four departments under the Healing Church, the workshop, the lineage of the Holy Maiden, the Stigma Academy, and the Healing Institute, each held a key item, or Secret law.
The workshop originally mastered the secret method of making shelter stones. However, due to the conflict between the Healing Church and the Steam God Cult, there were heavy casualties in the workshop, not only the craftsmen who could make shelter stones died. The ancient books of the secret method were also destroyed, which also led to the use of one less shelter stone, and no one could make it again.
In the world introduction, Su Xiao knew about this melee. Because of this melee, the population of the high-walled city was reduced by one-third, which shows how tragic it was at the beginning.
Because the workshop was unable to manufacture shelter stones, its status in the Healing Church plummeted, and there were even calls to merge the workshop into the Stigma Academy.
The workshop continued its life-threatening development and began to develop in the direction of building weapons, defenses, and mechanical tools. It has become one of the three major fathers of the Healing Church, and no one can shake it.
Needless to say, the Stigma Academy, that is, the academic school, the entrance to the dead city was under their leadership, and they caught the first-generation saint who was trying to pursue immortality, and sealed it with all her secondary divine blood.
Sealing the entrance to Dead Silent City will undoubtedly make the tradition of "the chosen" completely obsolete. The entrance to Dead Silent City is sealed, and even if the "chosen person" is selected, they will not be able to enter Dead Silent City.
Needless to say, only the bloodline of the first-generation saintess can unlock the shackles of the secondary divine blood.
The final treatment home has the key to the sanctuary, which was lost not long ago and is now retrieved. In terms of importance, even if you add up the secret stone method of shelter, the location of the sealed door, and the method of opening the door, its importance is also different. Not worth one percent of the keys to the sanctuary.
how so? More than 80% of the people who were selected in the past were born in the treatment hospital. They went deep into the dead city and had to bring the key of the sanctuary. Even if the selected person eventually lost, the treatment house would spare no expense to get the key back.
The most tragic one was when the hospital died until only the dean was left. After the dean took out the key from the silent city, he died without even leaving a word of his last words.
After the goddess finished her lunch, Su Xiao left with confidence, and ordered that she no longer had to guard the goddess, as long as she did not leave the hospital compound, she could go anywhere.
That afternoon, the goddess secretly rescued the four guards in the dungeon, and with the help of the guards, successfully escaped from the hospital.
At 6 p.m. that night, the pale-faced goddess was sent back to the treatment hospital. After drinking a bottle of relieving medicine, her pale-white face became a little bloody. Then she returned to the room on the fourth floor where she was originally imprisoned and lived in This is it.
Obviously, after experiencing the slow poison of alchemy, the goddess was more obedient, even if the four guards persuaded her to escape from the treatment hospital, she would not escape.
This made several academic tutors who were ready to make a big fuss about the kidnapping of the goddess in the treatment home, making the treatment home the target of public criticism, all wearing masks of pain.
Several academic tutors are ready, typically full of big moves, ready to attack the treatment hospital, but now, the goddess herself is not leaving.
Hearing the news, several tutors immediately found another tutor who was good at pharmacy. However, the tutor was poisoned to the point of foaming at the mouth, twitching, and was carried away, and everyone arrived. It is still unclear how the pharmacist was poisoned.
Obviously, in the case of the goddess, the academy was hit by the treatment center with a hammer, and the face was bruised, but the academy held the entrance to the dead city and continued to drag it down, which was obviously beneficial to them. Their purpose is to Maintain the status.
Time passed quietly. Early the next morning, Sin Yas still didn't come back. After this guy left the city, there was no news.
There is no news from Sin Yas, but the ghost brother is back. He not only came back by himself, but also with... cough, and together with Xiaohuahua, the ancient magic mirror, and the evil spirit in the mirror, he brought back the beast master. .
This is unbelievable. You must know that the beast race has always been exclusive, let alone letting the most prestigious beast masters come to the High Wall City, even if they want to step into their territory, they will be besieged.
But Brother Ghost did it. The reason was that when he was not yet elected, his parents were killed by wild beasts and wild beasts, his mother was bitten to death by a member of the wild beast family, and his father was swallowed by a wild beast. .
This made Brother Ghost at his peak, extremely hated the beasts and the wild beasts, and took action. He often went hunting outside the city. After fifteen years of hunting, the overall number of the wild beasts decreased by 60%. The family also lost 70%.
In the bad land of that era, whether it was a beast or a wild beast, after seeing the human race, it must have turned around and fled after seeing the human race. This was all killed by Brother Ghost and his expedition team.
In the past, when the expedition team saw the beasts and wild beasts, they would try to avoid them as much as possible, but in the era when Brother Ghost was the expedition team leader, when members of the expedition team saw beasts or wild beasts, their first reaction was definitely to pull out their weapons and shout. After colleague, he rushed up directly.
Right now, Brother Ghost went to 'visit' the Beast Race, and the Beast Leader personally received it. He seemed calm, but he was actually a little panicked.
Brother Ghost gave the Beast Leader two options, 1. Let the vice president of the treatment hospital, Kukulin Baiye, come here to visit, 2. Let the Beast Master go to the High Wall City to ensure that the Beast Master arrives safely and returns safely .
Hearing this condition, the beast leader pondered for a long time. If Brother Ghost is the former killing god, then Su Xiao is the current killing god. In the end, the beast leader found the master of the clan to exchange battles at the treatment center. In the name of Dharma experience, go to a treatment hospital.
Now that the Beast Master has arrived in the city, Su Xiao asked old Charman and Marina to pick them up, and told them not to go back to the treatment hospital directly, but to drive the Beast Master to the beautiful planting area in the south of the city for a stroll, and then in the Arrange lunch there, and find a Beast Race in the city to receive the Beast Master.
This time, the Beast Master is invited. Su Xiao wants to ask the other party how to meditate. If you ask for advice, you must have an attitude of asking for advice. How did the ghost brother negotiate in the early days. Be well entertained.
At 2 p.m. that day, in a farm in Nancheng District, looking around, there were green waters and green mountains in the distance, a large expanse of manicured grass around, and a wooden house in the back.
Under a big banyan tree, the canopy blocked the poisonous sunlight, Su Xiao sat cross-legged under the tree, and opposite, was an old old wolf, this old wolf is the master of beasts.
"President Bai Ye, I have heard of you for a long time. I didn't expect us to meet. It's a wonderful fate."
The old wolf spit out human words, and he was wearing the cloth of the Beast tribe, but these cloths looked a little old and looked old.
"As for the method of meditation, this is the masterpiece of my life, so..."
Although the Beast Master is here, he is not ready to fully teach that unique method of meditation, and for this reason, he is ready to be buried here.
Su Xiao took out this ancient book, which is what he got from the Dragon Academy. This ancient book is not in the form of pure words, but infuses spiritual power into it, and reads it together. The same is true for the ancient books of the Dragon Academy, and there is no need to understand the text on the book. Kinds, still can read fluently.
With the injection of a small amount of spiritual power, several symbols appeared on the cover of this ancient book, which means "Soul of the Beast". In short, this ancient book is a soul cultivation method that many beast groups can master.
After the Beast Master took over the ancient book~EbookFREE.me~, he also injected his spiritual power into it. After a while, it seemed to want to say something, but after looking down at the ancient book in his hand, he sighed. He knew that he could not refuse this. The transaction is not forced by others, but cannot be rejected by its own heart.
"Dean Bai Ye, but I said that before, my meditation method is an advanced method based on the basic meditation method, so you must have a solid foundation for meditation. I think you are so young, if you have a basic If you don't master the meditation method firmly, you can't learn my advanced meditation method."
The Beast Master opened his mouth with a gentle smile, obviously comforting Su Xiao in advance. Don't be discouraged even if you can't master the advanced meditation method.
"..."
Su Xiao glanced at the "Meditation of the Heart Lv.69" in the Beast Master's profile, and then looked at the "Meditation of the Heart Lv.73" that he had mastered, but didn't say anything.
