In the guest room on the third floor of the hotel, Su Xiao sat cross-legged on the bed. Through the scene just now, he guessed that Meros had kidnapped the previous goddess, most likely not because of love or the desire to forcefully marry her.
Being able to be stationed in the 'Kodo School Branch' in the old royal capital for so many years, Meros' origins are not simple, which is why Su Xiao cooperated with him.
If the origin is not simple, it means that there may be trouble. But what is the use of cooperating with someone who has a simple origin? Risks and opportunities coexist.
When they first met, Meros first described his experience of kidnapping the goddess of the previous generation, and then said that the current goddess also knew where the Lord of Light was.
First, he showed that he had experience in kidnapping the goddess, and then said that the goddess knew where the King of Light was. This was obviously purposeful, but the other party did not say a word clearly: 'If you want to successfully kidnap the current goddess, you'd better take me with you.
.'
Su Xiao didn't care much about Meros' purpose. He only looked at the result. He successfully kidnapped the goddess, and the goddess did know where the King of Light was. This was enough.
There is no need to ask what purpose Meros wants to achieve. No one is a fool. Why should he risk his life to help a stranger kidnap the goddess?
If you don't even have this kind of measure, you won't be able to accomplish anything, and you'll be paranoid every day, worrying about traps or traps.
It is necessary to be cautious enough, but one cannot restrain one's hands. As an alchemist, Su Xiao is not afraid of Melos suddenly stabbing him in the back.
The door was pushed open and Merlos walked in. The old guy was radiant, as if he had ushered in a second spring. His hand covering his lower back contained many meanings.
"You are so old, hahaha."
Meros sat down, took out a map from his arms, and said seriously:
"The goddesses of the Kodo School are not simple. They are born with a physique that can sense the power of the ancient gods. They can even borrow this power to a certain extent. Although they are not able to fight, they are still the power of the ancient gods."
As Meros spoke, he pulled up the cuff of his left arm. There were ravines all over his withered forearm, and there were signs of lignification in some places.
"More than 30 years ago, I was bitten on the arm by the previous goddess, so I must be careful when coming into contact with them."
Meros's eyes were full of fear. He clicked on the map on the table and continued:
"This is the headquarters of the Kodo School. We don't need to go there. What we have to do is lure the goddess out."
"How to lead?"
Baja threw an apple to Melos. Melos took it and took a bite, frowning, and continued:
"Using the power of the ancient gods, I investigated more than 30 years ago. The reason why living beings are corrupted is because the power of the ancient gods invades the brain. The crystal fat can curb this process to a certain extent, as long as..."
According to Merlos' account, Su Xiao knew the other party's plan. When the power of the ancient gods in a certain area was strong enough, the goddess would sense it, which would be very tempting to them.
Because the power of the ancient gods in this world is too powerful, it is impossible to collect or store it with artifacts. If you want to absorb the gathered power of the ancient gods, you can only go there in person and absorb it with the help of your special physique.
In fact, this is the reason why they are honored as goddesses. They have status, but they are not the leaders of the Kodo School. The Kodo School has no absolute leader and is composed of multiple factions.
To put it bluntly, goddesses are actually another kind of special container. Their bodies can absorb and store the energy of the ancient gods. The Kodo School needs to study the energy of the ancient gods.
This represents one thing. If anyone dares to touch the goddess, the Kodo School will immediately explode.
The goddesses of the past have another ability, that is, they can sense where the King of Light is.
The energy of the ancient gods comes from the ancient gods. The container seals the ancient gods. The King of Light is the soul chain that represents the human race. It is wrapped around the outside of the container and is almost connected to the energy of the ancient gods. The goddess who can absorb the energy of the ancient gods senses the king of light.
Their position is normal, or in other words, they can not only sense, but also achieve ultra-long-distance communication with the King of Light.
The so-called goddess is actually her mother who was corrupted during childbirth. In this case, there is a 99.99% chance that the newborn will also be corrupted. The remaining 0.01% lucky ones will survive, which is a one in ten thousand chance.
It just so happened that her mother was corrupted during childbirth. The probability was not high. There was still a one in 10,000 survival rate. It was really difficult for a goddess to appear.
Su Xiao was sure that the Goddess was deliberately created by the Kodo School, and the lucky ones were all women. How could there be such a coincidence? The sum of too many coincidences is a man-made necessity.
Meros's plan was to gather some ancient god energy to lure the goddess to a certain location, then get rid of the guards protecting the goddess and snatch the goddess away.
"Do you have a way to gather the power of the ancient gods?"
Su Xiao bit the soul crystal in her hand. After hearing his words, Meros, who looked a little abnormal, said:
"Is there a way to gather them together? Compared to this, is what you are eating a soul stone?"
Merlos' body tensed up, as if he might jump out of the window and run away at any moment.
"No, the soul stone cannot be eaten."
While speaking, Su Xiao put the last piece of soul crystal into his mouth and chewed it crisply.
Of course, Su Xiao also had a way to gather the energy of the ancient gods, but he wanted to see what method Meros used so that he could determine whether what the other party said before was true or false.
The sky outside the window was getting dark. Su Xiao sat cross-legged on the bed and meditated. The plan had been discussed and started at 11 o'clock in the evening.
The night falls, and a full moon hangs in the sky. At the edge of the full moon, a black halo can be vaguely seen. This halo is very light, and it is difficult to spot without looking carefully. This is the result of the world being sucked |
A unique sight.
In the southeast of 'Danke City', in a main sewer channel more than ten meters wide, several rusty ladders are located on the stone walls. The main sewer channel is 30 meters deep, and there are many stone walls around one meter deep.
Thick metal pipes, sewage flows out of them and collects in the main sewer channel.
On the right side of the main canal, there is a raised stone platform. This is a foothold for workers to deal with the silt at the bottom of the main canal. Usually no one comes down, and the stench is overwhelming.
"Bai Ye, the time has come."
Melos, who was standing on the stone platform, shouted that it was already midnight and the stench from the main sewer channel meant that there would be no residents living nearby.
Above the main channel of the sewer, Su Xiao stood on a row of iron frames. This place was originally used to lift sludge. However, due to the regression of civilization, the production cost of maintaining the parts of the lifting equipment was too high, and these equipment were also abandoned.
"We'll go in first, you prepare for the ambush."
With these words behind him, Meros, who changed into a rough leather jacket, walked into the dark sewer, and Baha followed him.
Su Xiao is sitting on the iron frame, which is more than ten meters above the ground. As long as he restrains his breath, there is little chance of being discovered. He can just wait here.
After more than half an hour, a wave of fluctuations came from diagonally below, coming from the depths of the sewer, and the energy of the ancient gods began to gather in Meros.
At the same time, in a bedroom on the seventh floor of the headquarters of the Kodo School, a soft big bed | reflected some moonlight, long golden brown hair was spread out, and a smooth velvet blanket covered her graceful body.
"Are they gathering again?"
A pair of amber eyes opened. In the darkness, these eyes were very bright and breathtaking. Yes, this was the goddess of the Kodo School.
The goddess lost interest after sensing it for a moment. There were too few ancient gods gathered. As noble as she was, she would not be attracted by the energy of such a small number of ancient gods.
An hour later, in the dark sewer filled with stench, several rats ran along the wall.
"Old Mo, I asked you, can you do it? It's been an hour and I still haven't caught the goddess. How about I come?"
"Be patient and trust my experience."
Two hours later.
"It's already two o'clock in the middle of the night, so let me do it. Get out of the way, I'm going to pretend to beep."
With Baha's wings spread out, Meros can indeed gather the energy of the ancient gods, but the method of gathering it is too inefficient. Meros's method can be described as a crazy trial between life and death.
When the consciousness is relaxed, it will be corrupted. Meros's method was that he borrowed a few crystal fats from Marcia, strung them into a necklace and wore it around his neck, and then relied on his unique method to intermittently enter a negative state.
, actively attracting corruption.
Meros is a transcendent person, he will not be corrupted instantly, and the crystal fat blocks it, and he is just a little passive, so he will not be infected by corruption.
By repeating this process, the energy of the ancient gods around Meros will of course become more intense. This is his clever plan to gather the energy of the ancient gods.
In the sewer, Baha opened a scroll, which was covered with black and red alchemical diagrams. This was drawn by the blood of ancient gods. Divine blood and energy from the same source are more likely to attract each other.
The formation diagram on the scroll was activated, and after a while, a trace of black energy appeared. Baha stopped sending spiritual power into the formation pattern, and could not gather it too exaggeratedly.
Because there is no completely homologous carrier, a trace of the ancient god's energy above the scroll is floating away at a not too fast speed. Judging from the appearance, it will be completely dispersed in about half an hour.
"You have this thing, why didn't you take it out earlier?"
Meros stared at Baha. He was jumping repeatedly between life and death. The gathered energy of the ancient gods could not be seen at all. But Baha just took out the scroll and injected spiritual power. The gathered energy of the ancient gods could actually
Observe with the naked eye.
Meros, who had been busy for more than three hours and had sweat on his forehead, was very angry.
"Fart, I just said it seven or eight times, so speak with your conscience."
"When did you say that? You must have remembered it wrong, cough, it must be."
Merlos was embarrassed for a moment. Thinking about it carefully, isn't it? Baha just said it seven or eight times. He was annoyed and asked the other party to be quiet. He always believed that Baha wanted to learn from his method, but this method was too dangerous.
Except for him, it is best not for outsiders to try.
"Just wait, if the goddess doesn't come again, we will implement plan B."
"What's plan B?"
"Blow up the headquarters of the Kodo School."
"Hahaha, you really know how to joke."
Meros gradually stopped laughing. For some reason, he felt that Baha was serious.
In the bedroom on the seventh floor of the headquarters of the Kodo School, a pair of amber eyes opened. The goddess sat up from the bed. As noble as she was, she would not leave the headquarters of the Kodo School easily unless too much energy from the ancient gods gathered.
