Chapter 286

I have to say, Lin Que's conditions were indeed very tempting to her.

But the dark spots on her record were not just as simple as being a monster now.

"Working for Dionysus all these years, I've done many bad things in secret."

"Excluding the Demeter Familia you know about, I've also killed many people from other Familias."

"Once my affairs are exposed, you will be condemned by other Familias afterward."

"Are you joking with me?"

Lin Que couldn't help but laugh out loud: "It's already good enough that I don't go looking for 660's trouble, yet you actually think they would take the initiative to look for mine."

"As for those few people you killed, in my opinion, it's not even enough to fill the gaps in my teeth, so why should I care about that."

"......Do you really not care?"

"I don't want to repeat useless nonsense too much."

Lin Que extended his right hand toward Phryne Jamil: "You just need to tell me whether you want to follow me or not."

"I... please."

Phryne Jamil hesitated for a long time, but in the end, she chose to take Lin Que's hand.

Loyalty to Dionysus, the salvation obtained from the other party.

These were no longer important.

At this very moment, Phryne Jamil had only one wish.

"I want to kill Oliwas!"

Phryne Jamil said with a firm tone: "That guy is the only one I absolutely cannot let go!"

"Not bad momentum."

A satisfied smile appeared on Lin Que's face.

This hatred was firmly established; it was worth him specifically giving Oliwas so many scenes in that video.

Silently giving Oliwas a thumbs up, Lin Que raised his hand and pulled open a space gate in front of him.

"Follow me, let's solve the problem on your body first."

ECHO is in the off state.

Knossos.

"I've been waiting here for a whole night, Thanatos."

In the underground space illuminated by a few candles, Ishtar put down the eye-light in her hand and looked at the male god in front of her with a calm gaze.

"It's just taking an item, why did it take so long?"

"This... it's mainly because a small accident occurred."

Tidying up the tattered black coat on his body, Thanatos revealed a polite but awkward smile on his face.

"Ishtar, you might not know."

"Last night, just before you arrived, the interior of the Knossos was invaded by unknown enemies."

"Oh? That does sound interesting."

Ishtar raised an eyebrow: "And then?"

"You wouldn't be trying to tell me that my item was snatched by the invaders, so you can't deliver the goods now, would you."

"No, no, no, you've misunderstood."

Thanatos shook his head: "The portion of the Spirit Embryo that belongs to you is being watched by Revis and the others, so there's no problem."

"It's mainly that it's not safe inside the Knossos right now, our manpower is constantly checking for invaders, and it still needs some time."

Of course, these were all excuses used to delay time.

The real reason was that Revis's North North North Side thought the time hadn't come yet and wanted to wait a few more days before handing the Spirit Embryo to Ishtar.

However, this kind of reason obviously couldn't be brought out and said directly.

Thinking for a moment, Thanatos said: "Ishtar, if you don't mind......"

Bang—!

Before Thanatos could finish his sentence, a pipe flew past his face and smashed into the ground behind him.

"I'm not a fool, Thanatos."

Reaching out to grab Thanatos by the collar, Ishtar revealed a brutal smile on her face.

"Since five years ago, do you know how much funding I've sponsored you with."

"After throwing so much money down, you reply to me with this perfunctory attitude?"

"Hmm... it seems your mood is very bad."

Thanatos revealed a social smile on his face: "Can you really not give me more time? My dear financier."

"One hour at most."

Ishtar let go: "This is my final grace period."

"If you can't hand over my portion of the Spirit Embryo within an hour, our cooperation can end here."

"Ah, this......"

Thanatos began to have a headache.

This is not easy to handle now.

On one hand, he didn't want to deliver the goods for the time being, and on the other hand, he was required to get the item within an hour.

Neither North North North Side was willing to compromise, and as a result, he, the third party, became the one who got hurt.

"God Thanatos!"

Just as Thanatos was thinking about how to reply, a member of the Thanatos Familia ran in.

"Lord Nyen just came in from Entrance No. 3! May I ask if you need to send someone to lead the way for her?"

"Little Nyen?"

Thanatos's eyes lit up, and he looked at Ishtar to the North North North Side.

"That... you heard it too, right? I have something that might require me to leave for a while, look at the one-hour deadline......"

"I'll go with you."

Ishtar revealed a cold smile: "I want to see what is more important than taking care of me, your financier."

Thanatos: "......"

I feel like the situation has become even more troublesome.

The Nyen that the Thanatos Familia member spoke of naturally refers to Phryne Jamil.

As one of the members of the monster faction, Phryne Jamil undoubtedly has the right to misappropriate the Spirit Embryo.

If conditions allowed, Thanatos actually didn't want Ishtar to meet the other party, so as to avoid conflict.

But now that Ishtar insisted on following along, Thanatos naturally couldn't refuse.

After preparing for the worst-case scenario, he took Ishtar to the passage of Entrance No. 3.

And then, Thanatos discovered that the worst-case scenario he had imagined seemed to be a bit too simple.

"Are you... Lin Que?"

Looking at the man walking toward them, Thanatos's eye twitched, and his gaze looked at Phryne Jamil, who was following behind the other party.

"Little Nyen, don't you intend to give me an explanation?"

"I think the person who needs to give an explanation is you, God Thanatos."

According to Lin Que's strange request, Phryne Jamil, who had disguised herself and put on a cape and cloak, asked in a suppressed voice.

"Why do you always come to lead me to avoid Area 7 every time I come."

"Avoid Area 7? Little Nyen, what are you talking about."

An ominous premonition rose in Thanatos's heart: "I haven't done that, you wouldn't have misunderstood something, would you."

"...... Misunderstood? Then let me change the way I say it."

Phryne Jamil said faintly: "Why do you always lead me to avoid Oliwas? Are you worried that I will take action against him."

"......It seems you know everything."

Listening to Phryne Jamil's words, Thanatos sighed helplessly: "Actually, this is Oliwas's request."
