Vol 42 Chapter 41: : Ghost City

The chaos in the underground prison soon subsided. After all, Brother Shui and others had already retreated, and a group of criminals wearing a restraint device, even if they were released from the cell, would not be able to turn a lot of wind and waves.
In the dean’s office on the third floor, Irene stood in a row with several middle-level lunatic asylums on duty, full of frustration. Since the establishment of the lunatic asylum, even though some murderous criminals have escaped, it belongs to a prison escape. No one has ever been able to escape from it before. The murderer is robbed here.
"Dean, we..."
As soon as Irene spoke, she found Su Xiao who was reading the documents behind her desk. This made Irene's words come to an abrupt end. The middle level of the lunatic asylum next to her didn't even dare to breathe.
"The hatred on the third floor of the dungeon has been rescued. Good thing, the maintenance cost of the underground jail will be reduced by at least 20% every month."
After Su Xiao said, he threw a stack of papers on the table. Hearing this, including Irene, several seniors in the lunatic asylum bowed their heads.
"I'll take care of this matter. The House of Parliament is asking you to trouble, so just tell them to get out."
"Huh? Dean, to put it this way... okay?"
Irene's expression was quite complicated, she was a little guilty on her face, but she was a little excited in her heart.
"It's nothing bad, you can disappear from my sight within 10 seconds."
Hearing this, Irene and the others were hesitant to say something, and finally left with a frustrated face, full of anger towards the Dark God Cult in their hearts.
Su Xiao picked up the phone on the desk, pondered his remarks, and then dialed the mayor of Perkin. As soon as the phone was connected, the other side said, "No money."
"..."
Su Xiao felt that these words sounded familiar, and he said: "It's not a question of money."
Hearing Su Xiao’s words, the Mayor Perkin in pajamas on the other side of the phone straightened up from the recliner. It was nine o’clock in the evening, and Mayor Perkin showed a serious face. He knew that there was no business at this time. White night. Neither Tessa nor Tessa would call him. Both knew that he was not in good health. When calling at this point, either the department was in a hurry for money or something went wrong. Mayor Perkin would prefer the former.
"I'm mentally prepared, let's talk."
Mayor Perkin's tone lost his former affinity and became serious.
"The people of the Dark God Cult sneaked into the lunatic asylum tonight and rescued a person."
"Don't tell me, they saved the hatred."
"bingo."
"Huh~"
Mayor Perkin sighed, and after the corners of his eyebrows twitched, he asked calmly, "Is the lunatic asylum suffered heavy losses?"
"Except for hating being robbed, there is basically no loss."
"How many people did they come to hold you down?"
"I was not in the lunatic asylum, and I was drinking with Tessa."
Listening to Su Xiao's words, Mayor Perkin called a good fellow in his heart. If these two people were present at random, they couldn't make this happen.
"Understood, it seems that I don't have time to rest tonight."
The Mayor Perkin on the opposite side hung up the phone after saying this. Su Xiao directly dialed Tessa to inform the other party about tonight's affairs.
Hanging up the phone, Su Xiao began to let Bubowang play back the surveillance images of various places in the insane asylum tonight. First of all, in the third floor of the underground jail, Shui and others rescued the images of hatred.
In the past, Brother Shui blocked the train squad. His purpose was not to kill Yinmian, Hongtong Girl and others, but to learn about the whereabouts of the dean of the Twilight Asylum. So think about it, Shui's purpose is twofold, 1. To kill. Dean of the Twilight Asylum, 2. What do you get from the dean of the Twilight Asylum.
The answer is obviously the latter, but Brother Shui gave up this plan after determining that the dean of the Twilight Asylum was Su Xiao. Instead, he chose a more cumbersome and time-consuming way to get what he wanted. Now It seems that that is the key to open the elevator in the center of the lunatic asylum, and the means of identifying the third floor of the dungeon.
In Shui Ge's estimate, the risk of a deadly battle with Su Xiao is much higher than the backup plan.
Brother Shui's initial purpose was the key to the dungeon. All this makes sense, but the question is, why does the other party want to save the hatred? This point, nine out of ten, is the core content of Brother Shui's mission.
Su Xiao continued to watch the surveillance video. Soon, there was a surveillance video with very small sound and barely audible. He noticed that he maximized the sound. After a while, the video was played. It was Brother Shui who stopped the dark gods. The scene where the members fell silent.
Based on Su Xiao’s understanding of Brother Shui, that is, En Zuo, this person does not have the habit of killing innocents. The problem is that the guards are obviously not in the ranks of innocents when they sneak in tonight. Live, this is very meaningful.
Because Brother Shui didn’t do anything wrong, the alliance that got a mouthful tonight did not reach the point of turning into a laughingstock. Although there were criminals who escaped in the lunatic asylum, there were no casualties. The nature of this matter can be reduced from robbery to inside and outside. The escape from prison is one word difference, and the follow-up retaliation is very different.
If you are robbed of prison, one of the people involved in this matter tonight will count as one. The Alliance will find a way to kill them all. If you escape from prison, the Alliance will not care about who executed the matter, but will focus on it. Behind the scenes the Lord Dark God Sect.
In this way, Shui Ge not only completed the mission of the death paradise, first received quest rewards, but also paid for the Dark God Cult. In addition, he could use the Dark God Cult faction reputation to exchange supplies in the faction shop in Ghost City. Will be stared at by the Alliance, this thing is done wonderfully.
Su Xiao switched the screen to Black A. It was the scene where Black A pulled out the "Yuan Meteor" sword. This made Su Xiao's mood a little better. Follow-up against Abyss Chief Silves, Black A is the most important part of the plan. The most important.
First of all, the leader of the abyss Silves trusts Black A very much, plus the rebellious black A, always thinking about defeating Su Xiao, which makes the black A act the same as it really is when he is working under the leader of the abyss Silves. No, it is not acting, but Black A’s true thoughts. This is also doomed. Abyss Chief Silves can’t see through the fact that Black A is an insider. To be more precise, Black A himself doesn’t even know that he is an insider. .
Black A is the first Devourer produced by Su Xiao. Of course, he has the means to control it. Because of this, Su Xiao's idea is that this rebel should not add drama to himself indiscriminately, just keep the current style and lead the abyss. · Silves’s men can do things.
When Su Xiao cleaned up the abyss leader Silves, he had more than double digits to make this Nizi obediently obedient, even if Black A's mind was still Nizi, but he would try his best to hide this thought.
Su Xiao saw that it was almost time, and asked Eminem to carry some essentials in his handbag. After a while, the phone on the table rang, and after answering it, it was indeed the Shengdu·Congress that called him the fastest Du rushed to the House of Parliament.
"Baha, get Irene, and she will go to the holy capital with me."
As Su Xiao talked, he felt a little tired. He hadn't closed his eyes for so many days before going to the Kingdom of Holy Lan. He happened to make up his sleep tonight. As for looking for Irene to go to the House of Parliament, Irene is the vice president. Naturally want to attend such occasions.
After a while, Irene walked into the office, struggling, looking at the folded vomit bag in her hand, she was obviously thinking of how to get to the Holy Capital.
Su Xiao, Irene, and Eminem stood on the teleportation formation in the bedroom, and the teleportation started with a bang. When the spatial fluctuation subsided, they had arrived in an empty warehouse on the back street of Shengdu.
Drove to the House of Parliament. When Su Xiao walked into the large chamber of the House of Parliament, he found that three of the four large members were present. Around the central table, there were all high-ranking members of the alliance. The second row was representatives of major families. In the back row were middle and high-level officials. Because there were more people on the spot, the environment was a bit noisy.
Seeing this battle, Irene, who was next to Su Xiao, felt cold. Tonight’s parliament must have put the lunatic asylum on fire. In fact, Irene was more concerned, just because of Su Xiao’s sturdy record after taking office. As long as the Alliance is not ignorant, it will not put the lunatic asylum on fire.
Although Su Xiao is qualified to sit in the first row around the table, he chose to sit in the fifth row. Although the accompanying Irene did not understand, she was seated on the sidelines. She also leaned over and whispered to Su Xiao: " Dean, you must calm down for a while."
"?"
After Su Xiao glanced at Irene suspiciously, he asked Eminem to take the kettle in his handbag and quickly pick up some boiling water. The meeting room was about to close.
"President, what shall we do for a while?"
Irene still hesitated in her heart. As far as the ability is concerned, Irene still has the ability to be the next head of the lunatic asylum, but it is fine for her to experience such occasions.
"..."
Su Xiao didn't speak. Seeing this, Irene had no bottom in her heart. She looked down at the handbag beside her feet. Out of curiosity, she picked it up, holding the idea of ​​a magic weapon in it, opened it, and then I saw blankets, tea bags, and even a box of pastries for supper.
Ten minutes later, the door of the chamber suddenly closed, and a large councillor sitting in the first position signaled to Mayor Perkin that tonight's parliament could begin.
Under the auspices of Mayor Perkin, the atmosphere in the council was extremely serious. Until it was discussed how to deal with the dark cult’s infiltration of the insane asylum tonight, the chamber began to lively, and within a short while, it developed into a family faction, a business alliance, and The reason for the accusations of the three bureaucrats is how to deal with this matter, more specifically, how to retaliate against the Dark God Cult, and who should retaliate.
Mayor Perkin, who is usually gentle and smiling, is already pointing at the old fox of the opposite family group, and the four councillors sitting in the first place are all taking a nap and hearing nothing.
"What is our responsibility? For so many years, we have dealt with the Dark God cult so that you can make money safely. Now that something has happened, you have nothing to do with you, right?"
The old fox blew his beard and stared, and a group of family officials and high-level officials expressed their support.
"you put…"
Mayor Perkin took the second half of the sentence back, but with a few words, the old fox on the opposite side was shocked until his blood pressure soared.
If you turn the camera to the four big councillors, the excitement will calm down. These four have long been accustomed to such scenes, and they have developed an expression that seems to have their eyes open, but is actually half asleep.
Turning the camera to Su Xiao's side, you will find that Su Xiao is already sitting on the seat, sleeping under a blanket, while Irene is dragging the pastry box with one hand and eating supper.
Until the latter half of the night, Su Xiao felt someone nudge herself, and a soft voice came from her ear: "Dean, Dean wake up."
"Um?"
Su Xiao opened his eyes. Don't say it, this feeling is particularly practical. The four big councilors are present. At this time, the defense of the House of Parliament can be imagined. There is no need for external perception to supplement the feeling.
"White night, where's Baiye?"
The shout of the bearded Congressman came. Su Xiao got up and came to sit at the table. He just took a seat. Many people in the first and second rows around the table were stunned. The expression was clearly: "The feelings have been here long ago, and he still had a rest in the back row. ’
The first Congressman Ording and Su Xiao looked at each other. After a brief look at each other, Congressman Ording had already made a judgment. Tonight's affairs can be done with a large amount of supplies.
"White night, this matter was discharged in your lunatic asylum, give an attitude."
Congressman Ordin said what everyone in the room wanted to say, but they were afraid to say. Who wants to question a king who killed the nightmare first, then the of radiance, and finally killed the king of sand The ruthless person.
"Teach a tooth for a tooth against the dark god."
"Oh?" Congressman Ording asked with a slight smile, "How can you give a tooth for a tooth?"
When he said this, Congressman Alding had guessed that what Su Xiao would say next was to clean up the Dark Cult branch in the border area of ​​the Alliance. This is a way of battling a tooth with low risk and high returns.
"Go to Ghost City and destroy the Dark God Cult."
As soon as Su Xiao said this, the hall suddenly became quiet. If others said this, it would definitely be a roar of laughter, but what Su Xiao did in the first half month made everyone present feel that the dean of the lunatic asylum, yes Really capable of crusade against Ghost City.
"It's a great proposal, but who will go?"
Congressman Alding looked around at the crowd, and the three Congressmen beside him had inexplicable looks in their eyes.
"I personally recommend Tessa to go."
Su Xiao spoke. He needs Tessa’s intelligence department to go to Ghost City. He must be a foreshadowing now to prevent Tessa from playing a rogue when he conquered the Hunter’s intelligence department. With his knowledge of Tessa, the other party can do it. This matter.
Hearing Su Xiao’s words, Tessa next to him immediately became energetic. Everyone in the hall looked like they wanted to laugh but couldn’t laugh. God, you proposed to crusade Ghost City, and then let Tessa go. , Is this something human can do?
"Tessa is indeed a suitable candidate, but she has several roles and is not suitable for expedition to Ghost City."
An old but sturdy congressman dressed in a loose white robe spoke up. This is Tessa's grandfather, so naturally he won't let Tessa do the trick.
"Then I will go."
Su Xiao’s words made the atmosphere in the conference hall a lot easier at once, but soon the atmosphere returned to its previous appearance. Everyone in the crusade against Ghost City supported him. As the representative of this time, Su Xiao was even more so. It was passed unanimously.
At the last link, everyone's opinions were divided again, that is, the crusade against Ghost City requires a large amount of funds and resources. This is certainly not a lunatic asylum, but the amount of funds is too large for the House of Assembly and can only be shared equally.
At four o'clock in the middle of the night, when Su Xiao walked out of the main entrance of the House of Parliament, Tessa walked with him. Hunter troops are in a state of lack of money all year round.
It’s not that the House of Parliament has low allocations, but that no matter how much money is allocated, it is not enough for Tessa to distribute to his men. The Hunter Force is different from other departments. This is the most dangerous department of the Alliance. There is no one. All kinds of monsters are hunters. For the troops to deal with, the members' treatment is of course higher. What's more, Tessa is a well-known madman in the alliance.
Su Xiao did not stay in the sacred city for a long time. Before dawn, he returned to the lunatic asylum. Not long after he returned to the office, someone knocked on the door of the room.
Boubowan opened the door and found that there was no one outside, except for an alloy box in the corridor in front of the door, which was obviously sent by the four congressmen.
The large sums of money that the House of Assembly gave to Su Xiao to crusade against Ghost City, a large part of which was for him to distribute to the subordinates and collaborators who participated in this god. Without sufficient benefits, no one would want to go to Ghost City. Su Xiao has always been bad at painting cakes in that kind of place. He is more accustomed to first sharing a piece of cake with his subordinates, and then pointing to the bigger piece of cake in the distance.
By then, the people under his staff will naturally try their best to get the big pie, because these people know that this big pie will not be swallowed by Su Xiao, but will be eaten according to the degree of effort. Moreover, they are full. Only when you have the strength to do things, all kinds of thoughts will come out when you are hungry, and that is not far from betraying or stabbing a knife in the back.
A large part of the funds obtained from the crusade against Ghost City this time was used in this aspect. At present, the four big councilors sent this alloy box, which has another meaning. This is an extra reward for Su Xiao prepared separately. After all, no one other than Su Xiao could do something like the crusade against Ghost City. The four big councilors were also worried that Su Xiao had changed his mind temporarily, so it made a big joke.
The door closed, Su Xiao opened the alloy box, and a prompt appeared.
[You get 87 soul crystal nuclei. 】
[You get the supreme moonlight (sale price: 3 gold attribute points, or soul treasure chest × 1). 】
[You get a star pendant (valuable goods in this world, selling price: 42900 soul coins). 】
[You get the left eye of faith (equipment/world valuables, selling price: 39000 soul coins, or find the right eye of zeal, activate this eye as a special equipment). 】
[You get a treasure chest of elves will (after opening this treasure chest, you will definitely get a piece of origin-level · full-rated charm characteristic equipment). 】
…
The four big councillors acted generously, and these materials were all very expensive, but when he saw the last treasure chest item, Su Xiao's eyes narrowed a bit and checked its attributes. After finding that the place of origin was Apocalypse Paradise, he determined in his heart. Thing.
Su Xiao was not curious about how the Alliance got this treasure chest, but through contact with the platinum bishop and the ghost prophet and others, Su Xiao discovered that the aborigines of the ninth world are not completely unknown to the paradise camp, and they know more about the void. .
At the moment, the four councillors sent someone to send this [Elf Will Treasure Box], which is both an extra reward and a temptation, expressing clearly and implicitly that he is already suspected of being in the paradise camp, but this does not affect the cooperation between the two parties and the crusade against Ghost City, as long as After cleaning up the Dark God Cult in Ghost City, nothing else is a problem.
Su Xiao put away a few items. The ruler of the ninth world is indeed not easy to mess with, but it has nothing to do with him. From the beginning to the end, he did not participate in the faction disputes in the alliance. His hostile Deputy Dean Yesinger, and several members of Congress are obviously very willing to continue to cooperate.
Su Xiao glanced at the time. He was originally scheduled to leave for Ghost City at 8 o'clock in the morning, but he was going to take Boubowang to Ghost City first. There is something he wants to test. If successful, it will bring a great advantage. .
With the roar of the dragon, Su Xiao jumped out of the window and landed on the back of Storm Flame Dragon Diss. The wind pressure suddenly rose, and the high-altitude scenery in the early morning was pleasant.
Su Xiao sat on the back of the dragon, and the wind whizzed past his ears. This time he went to Ghost City, not to deal with the entire Ghost City. He already had a certain understanding of it. First of all, Ghost City was established by the ghost clan and was based on war. The size of the base camp, the big city built.
This also makes Ghost City the largest city in the world. To be precise, it is more like a small and medium-sized country.
If Ghost City were completely controlled by the Dark God Cult, this big city would have been destroyed long ago. The Dark God Cult is the largest power in the Ghost City. This is true. It is indeed the base camp of the Dark God Cult, but this does not mean that the Ghost City is completely Belongs to the Dark God Sect.
In the entire Ghost City, the Dark God Cult is the strongest, followed by the Yug Family, then the Commercial League, and finally the Ghost Race, and then all kinds of second-rate forces. Generally speaking, there is a mixture of fish and dragons in the Ghost City. There are no rules here. Only the weak eat the strong.
The civilians living here do not want to leave, but there is no way and channel to leave. The dark sea area behind Ghost City, the left and right sides and the front are the "survival class" abyss erosion zone, it can be said that, except for a few major forces in the city , The civilians only had a dead end when they left Ghost City. In that large area, only the civilians could live in Ghost City.
The sound of the wind whistling in his ears, Su Xiao sat on the dragon’s back to meditate, while Bobowang was idle and bored, took out the terminal and started playing the puzzle game. From the tooth print on the Bobo terminal, it can be seen that the process of the puzzle solving game is not It's smooth.
Time passed quickly in meditation. After the Storm Flame Dragon Diss flew at full speed for more than 20 hours, Su Xiao felt the temperature drop, not the cold of the north, but a sense of cold, damp, and darkness. He opened his eyes. , I found that the sky was full of blackness, and a black iron city with towering walls appeared in front. The one hundred-meter-high city wall was very conspicuous.
Su Xiao didn't choose to hide his trace. He let the Storm Flame Dragon fly directly into Ghost City and landed in an abandoned courtyard in the east side area. It can be seen that this place has been abandoned for a long time. This is the former station of the Alliance in Ghost City.
Su Xiao was going to repair this place. As a temporary base camp, he was just about to start the matter, and a prompt appeared.
[Reminder: As the hunter himself arrived in Ghost City, and the "Conquest of the Devourers" is about to reach its final stage, whether the "Conquest of the Devourers" will be expanded notarized based on the current faction. 】
[If you choose this notarization, the 103.6 ounces of space-time power cost paid by the hunter’s pre-notarization for this "Evil Devourer Contest" will be refunded, and the scope of this notarization will be expanded, and the alliance camp represented by the hunter and the hostile will be refunded. The dark sect camp, the unhosted local forces, the Yug family, the business alliance, and the ghost family, are all included in this notarization. 】
[If you choose this notarization expansion, you will lose the right to place supplies and take back all temporary branding. There will be two notarization camps in this area (Ghost City), the alliance camp and the dark camp. The hunter is the leader of the alliance camp in the area. The leader of the abyss Silves is the leader of the dark camp. 】
[After completing the notarization expansion, this "Contest of Devourers" will involve Ghost City, Dangerous Area, Family Mansion, and Dangerous Area, Ancestral Palace and other areas. The "Ancient Emblem" will still be the final contender for this battle. . 】
[Because of this battle, the prototype was drawn up for the hunter, and the subsequent notarization expansion requires the hunter's permission. However, after accepting this regulation, you will lose most of the special permissions in the notarization, but there will also be a probability Obtain the unique materials of this world. 】
…
Seeing these prompts, Su Xiao pondered for a few seconds, and decided to conduct an extended notarization, because this is more profitable and can better reflect the ability of the Devourer.
[It is expected that this notarization expansion will be officially carried out in 3 hours. 】
[You gain 103.6 ounces of space-time power. 】
…
Su Xiao closed the reminder. He walked into the temporary base camp. The environment in Ghost City was a bit dim, but it was even darker inside. He took out a broken piece of cloth and asked Bubowang to find someone based on the smell from it. , The other party is in Ghost City nine out of ten.
Boubowan blended into the environment, and it was not someone else but Shui that it was looking for.
The reason why Su Xiao came to Ghost City in advance was not only to test the Dark God Cult, but also to solve a major hidden danger. That is, if he wants to fight the abyss leader Silves, he must first solve the water brother, otherwise he will fight the abyss leader at the same time in a deadly battle. Silves + Brother Shui, it is impossible to win.
Su Xiao took out a semi-transparent tentacles, emptied both hands, and in the next second, a mysterious wave spread.
After finishing all this, Su Xiao began to meditate with his eyes closed. After half an hour, a wave of fluctuations appeared. He interrupted the meditation, put away the things that suddenly appeared, and continued to meditate.
In the dim building, apart from the wooden chair Su Xiao was sitting on, there was only a square table in front of him, UU Reading www.uukánshu.com and the wooden chair opposite.
Two hours later.
Da, Da, Da~
The sound of the cane hitting the ground came, and a figure walked out of the darkness and sat on the seat opposite to Su Xiao. The person said: "White night, our camp is now hostile, you find me, are you going to kill me, or Peace talks?"
The seated person was Brother Shui, and he opened his mouth with a smile, just like before, not feeling too dangerous.
Su Xiao opened her eyes when she finished her meditation, and said, "Enzuo, if I get rid of you..."
"You won't do this. After I die, Siwon's magic mirror will entangle you. It is dangerous to become the holder of the original sin thing. If you are careless, you will lose your life."
When Brother Shui spoke, the smile on his face became more modest.
"It seems that you know that to kill the holder of the original sin thing is to inherit the original sin thing he possesses."
"of course I know."
Brother Shui’s answer was certain. Hearing what Brother Shui said, Su Xiao nodded. In the suspicious gaze of Brother Shui, he took out the "soul crown" and placed it on the table. The smile immediately freezes, and his eyes gradually become serious.
When Su Xiao then took out the "Book of the Dead" and put it on the table, the face of the opposite Shui brother had already begun to harden.
Su Xiao did not stop because of Brother Shui’s mentality that he was about to split. He finally took out the "Nether Bone Ring". The three original sins were all placed on the wooden table in front of him. He looked at Brother Shui on the opposite side and asked. :
"Enzuo, are you sure you want to join forces with Silves to deal with me? If you win, these original sins may be yours. It seems that you are eager for the original sins."
Hearing this, the opposite brother Shui's cheek twitched. He had already laid out the plan, but at this moment he gave up all of it, and his mentality split.
