Chapter 147: Can riddle-makers just die! ()

~6 min read 1,101 words

Little Garden West North North North Side, 7777 Outer Gate.

Inside a huge cathedral that combines Gothic and Roman architectural styles, a figure with long black hair stood quietly in the center of the hall.

I don't know how much time passed, but a figure draped in a black robe walked in from outside the cathedral and came behind him to report.

"Lord Sariel, the alliance banquet of [Arcadia] has already begun."

"How is the situation?"

Sariel asked calmly: "How many communities are currently willing to join their alliance?"

"This......"

The black-robed person hesitated and replied truthfully: "It's hard to say, but at least 90% of the small communities attending the banquet chose to join [Arcadia]'s new alliance."

"90%?"

Sariel was stunned, a look of shock flashing in his eyes.

Obviously, he hadn't expected the number to be so high.

"What's the specific situation? Did [Arcadia] offer any special conditions that could attract so many people to join?"

"Yes, [Arcadia]'s new leader, Lin Que, explained a special Gift of his own, [Holy Character], at the banquet."

The black-robed person replied: "As long as you drink water mixed with his blood, you can have a [Holy Character] carved by him and awaken a special ability."

"At the banquet, the Great Demon Vera from the North North North North Side went up first and awakened a Gift called [Holy Character 1: Destruction], burning a piece of [Adamantine Iron] in a short time."

"Besides that, people who have the [Holy Character] carved will also establish a connection with Lin Que and obtain power from him."

"Perhaps because they received intelligence in advance, not long after the banquet started, the Lord of the Heavenly Army, Indra, arrived at the banquet in person and left the banquet hall with the other party to negotiate."

"Although the content of the negotiation hasn't been determined yet, according to the conversation between Indra and the former leader of [Six Wounds], Galolo, it can be determined that Indra came specifically for the [Holy Character]."

Although it was something that happened not long ago, the black-robed person seemed to know the situation in the banquet hall like the back of his hand.

Not only did he narrate everything Lin Que did, but he also focused on introducing the power of the [Holy Character].

And after listening to his words, Sariel's face fell into a long silence.

"[Holy Character]... what a troublesome ability."

He didn't believe that [Power Gift] was just a one-sided bestowal.

Since power can be bestowed on others through the connection of the Holy Character.

Then naturally, power can also be recovered through this connection.

As for whether the power recovered is the part he put out, or whether there is extra interest like a loan, Sariel wasn't sure.

The only thing Sariel could be sure of was that this new leader of Arcadia was even more troublesome than expected.

"I was originally just planning to recover Algol, but now it seems necessary to seal him as well... no, it's better to just solve him."

Halfway through his sentence, Sariel suddenly changed his decision: "Since he killed Raziel, there's no need to leave him alive."

"A life for a life; even if White Yaksha knows, she won't have much to say."

Of course, the main thing is that pure-blooded dragons are different from Star Spirits.

Killing a pure-blooded dragon is much simpler than killing a Star Spirit.

"Now, excluding those who cannot be mobilized at will, how many four-digit combat powers are there?"

"There were originally fourteen people in total."

The black-robed person replied: "However, ten people went to No-Name's North North North Side with Lord Raziel yesterday."

The final result naturally goes without saying; these ten people who didn't send back any news stayed on that North North North Side with Raziel.

"Four is enough."

Sariel said: "Didn't that new leader of [Arcadia] say that even if those who join the alliance are attacked, he will ensure they won't be lonely on the road?"

"Since that's the case, let's use this point to attack those communities that joined the alliance and draw him out."

"As long as he leaves the East North North North Side, even White Yaksha can't watch him all the time. By then, I will solve him myself."

"Is it really okay?"

The black-robed person was a bit puzzled: "The other party was able to make Lord Raziel not even send out a message; he is at least a four-digit breaker."

"If I remember correctly, Lord Sariel, your strength seems to be the same as Lord Raziel's, both are just top-tier four-digits."

Sariel: "?"

What is this?

Sariel, who didn't expect to be questioned, was stunned, his gaze also becoming puzzled.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Didn't Raziel teach you such basic common sense?"

"He didn't teach me."

"Then I'll teach you today."

Sariel snorted coldly, not caring about the other party's words.

"Hurry up and do your business; don't ask so much."

"Since I have appeared here, I will naturally solve everything."

"Alright."

The black-robed person, who had always been respectful, suddenly sighed: "It seems I can only fish for information up to here."

"What a pity; I originally wanted to understand your trump cards in advance."

"Hm?"

Sariel finally reacted this time.

Staring dead at the black-robed person in front of him, he said in a cold voice.

"Who are you?"

"Who am I?"

The black-robed person made a strange laughing sound: "Hehehe~ That's a really good question~!"

"Why don't you guess, my dear Lord Sariel."

"Playing god and playing ghost!"

Boom——!

Black wings bloomed behind him, and Sariel, whose aura surged, waved his hand, stirring up a violent gale.

The black-robed person didn't dodge, letting this gale blow off the hood on his head, revealing his true face.

"Not planning to hide your identity?"

Sariel, who had only been preparing to test him, frowned slightly, his gaze sweeping over the other party's face.

"So that's how it is; you even did a second layer of disguise."

"Dressing yourself as 'Shadow', no wonder you didn't cause... hm? No, that's not right."

Halfway through his sentence, Sariel, who suddenly felt his memory was a bit chaotic, paused and looked at the other party again.

"You are clearly using 'Shadow's' face, why is it the same as the face of... No-Name's new leader in my memory."

"Yeah, why is that?"

Lin Que looked at the other party with a smile: "The answer is actually very simple, my dear Lord Sariel. Why don't you guess again?"

Sariel: "......"

Guess your mother!
