Chapter 2852

The Priest was unexpectedly frank, or rather, now was the stage for sincere cooperation. Once the Sun Gate was opened, it was hard to say what would happen later.

Undoubtedly, anyone who could hold one of the five keys would not be weak.

Su Xiao had very little existing information. He only knew that the five keys were related to the 'Ganglu Dynasty', and knew nothing else.

Regarding the Dark Mask the Priest mentioned, it was very likely not a lie. A Qiyuezhe from the Apocalypse Paradise side named Philosopher provided a photo that had engravings of the five 'keys'.

At the very top of the engravings of the five 'keys' was a mask with a hole in the center of the brow, with black blood flowing out from the hole.

What was the use of the Dark Mask? It was impossible to know from the Priest. Don't look at how frank this old guy was performing now, but regarding the secrets of the five keys, the location of the Sun Gate, or what was behind the Sun Gate, the other party didn't mention a word.

Among the old schemers, the Priest counted as one, and the President Rogash he hadn't met was no better. Therefore, the remaining two key holders had to be chosen carefully. They had to be strong enough, and couldn't be old schemers, otherwise, it would be too lively.

"Bai Ye, I have a proposal. You, me, and Rogash join forces temporarily. After finding the remaining two keys, the holders of the keys will be chosen by the three of us."

Obviously, the Priest was also worried about the scene of five old schemers gathering together. That would really be unplayable. Once the Sun Gate was opened, it would simply be earth-shattering.

"Not a bad proposal."

After Su Xiao finished speaking, he leaned on the seat to take a nap. The train sped along and soon arrived at 'Baida City'.

The silver moon hung high in the sky, Baida City · Truth Street, in front of a magnificent building.

This was a tall building in the Romanesque style, which had been located here for many years. As the headquarters of the Magic Association, other buildings nearby were all about municipal, academic, mysterious-side colleges, etc.

Su Xiao walked up the steps in front of the Magic Association headquarters. After entering the interior, he found that it wasn't heavily guarded. Because it was night, the spacious hall was empty.

This scene was a bit abnormal. Either something happened to the Magic Association, or President Rogash did it on purpose. The other party didn't want too many secret practitioners to know that Su Xiao and others had been here.

"Been waiting for you for a long time."

A figure sat in the darkness. The moonlight cast from the window shone on him, allowing one to see his appearance. It was the Masked Man · Bass.

"Priest, didn't you bring the 'lambs' this time?"

The Masked Man · Bass's gaze was unkind. Just the night before yesterday, the Priest led people to attack the Magic Association headquarters. Later, for some reason, the two sides stopped fighting and even joined forces.

"Last time was a misunderstanding."

The Priest walked on the marble floor covered with cracks and carefully observed the cracks. He could see bloodstains that hadn't been cleaned up yet.

"Misunderstanding?"

The Masked Man · Bass stood up, and a distorted phantom appeared behind him. Suddenly, a giant hand composed of iron sand-like energy appeared behind him and pinched the phantom behind him to explode.

The Masked Man · Bass's posture swayed, and the pupils in his eyes were trembling.

"It was my rudeness, President."

Wiping the blood that seeped from the lower edge of the mask, Bass tilted his head, signaling Su Xiao and others to follow.

Following the stairs upward, Su Xiao arrived at the library on the twelfth floor.

A man wearing white clothes with black hair hanging down to his knees stood barefoot in front of the bookshelf. He was seriously reading the book in his hands. His hair was black and shiny, and the tips of his hair were as sharp as needle points.

This was the president of the Magic Association, Rogash. He didn't look cold, but those who knew him were both respectful and fearful of him.

It seemed that because of the arrival of Su Xiao and others, President Rogash turned his head to look. His gaze was very calm, but also extremely cold.

President Rogash's hair rolled up the book in his hand, put it back in its original position, and even inserted a bookmark between the pages.

"Priest, there is news about the whereabouts of the Heart Flame. It's on the Black Tower side."

President Rogash's voice had a unique charm. As he walked, the candlelight along the way was pulled toward the direction where he was, and finally pulled out.

"Black Tower? That's a bit difficult."

The Priest sat at a small round table. Su Xiao also sat down and took out a Soul Crystal (Small), threw it into his mouth, and chewed.

Incense was placed on the small round table, and a strange fragrance spread. President Rogash also sat at the small round table, and the three of them didn't speak.

The Masked Man · Bass stood by the door of the library. The dead silence in such a spacious room, plus the three faint auras, made cold sweat seep out on the face under Bass's mask.

The Masked Man · Bass swallowed his saliva. He was a bit astonished to find that his hands were actually shaking unconsciously.

"Bai Ye."

Su Xiao broke the silence and introduced himself in the simplest and fastest way.

"Rogash."

President Rogash nodded to Su Xiao. The mutual probing of auras just now had let him know that the collaborator mentioned by the Priest before would have no problem before opening the Sun Gate, but after that, this was a great enemy, a great enemy that needed to be dealt with by betting everything.

President Rogash picked up a book on the table. He seemed to be very keen on learning all kinds of knowledge, even if this knowledge had no direct relationship with soul energy or holy seals.

"Rogash, since the Heart Flame is on the Black Tower side, shall we go and snatch it directly? This is the fastest way. We don't have much time left."

The Priest seemed very steady, but when he should take action, he was very ruthless and decisive.

"The owner of the Heart Flame will send it over. It will be in about an hour. His name is Xusilo, my offspring, an unpromising offspring."

President Rogash was still serious, as if he had already arranged everything, just waiting for someone to take the initiative to send it to his door.

A burst of rapid running sounds came from outside the door. The double-door solid wood door was pushed open by a gap. A girl tied with fishbone braids poked her head to look around. There was a small black mole at the corner of her eye, which made her look very youthful and energetic.

"Father, are you there?"

Eastern Continent, on the boundless wilderness, a man and a woman were walking fast. Suddenly, the short-haired woman stopped.

"I want to pee, right now."

"Huh?"

The man walking in front had a strange expression. After hesitating for a moment after clenching his fist, he punched the woman in the lower abdomen.

"Don't use this face of yours to say such vulgar words!"

Xusilo blasted the short-haired woman out more than ten meters away with one punch.

"This is your order."

The short-haired woman got up from the ground and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.

"You should say, you should say... discharge excess water from the body? Yes, just say it like that."

"Then I want to discharge excess water from the body."

"Give you 30 seconds, go behind that stone, and also, don't think about escaping."

Xusilo turned his back, hugged his shoulders with both hands, and tapped his heels on the ground to wait. Soon, 30 seconds passed.

"Are you done?"

"..."

"Hey, speak."

Xusilo hesitated for a moment, and after cursing in a low voice, he turned his head back little by little to look. In the moonlight, Xusilo saw a figure running toward the distance.

"Heh."

Xusilo was laughed at by anger. He came to the giant rock, easily lifted the giant rock, and threw it toward the distance. After an 'oh' groan, the figure in the distance fell to the ground, and her legs were tilted up from being smashed.

"You'd better go into the bag."

Xusilo took out the large cloth bag he carried with him and stuffed the short-haired woman into the bag, with skillful movements.

The bag mouth was tied up. The short-haired woman inside asked: "Are you going to sell me?"

"Of course I'm going to sell you. The market in the Eastern Continent is better."

Xusilo looked at the female secret practitioner in the large cloth bag. The moonlight shone on the other party's face. How could Xusilo sell someone with this face? He couldn't do it, no matter what, even knowing the other party was a secret practitioner.

Xusilo didn't believe this was a coincidence. This female secret practitioner looked exactly the same as his dead sister, even the position of the black mole at the corner of her eye was exactly the same.

"Rogash, your weakness... I've found it."

Xusilo took out a stone pillar about ten centimeters long and fist-thick from his arms. The center of this stone pillar was scorching red. This was the 'Heart Flame', and it was also the reason why Xusilo joined the Black Tower.

Xusilo's gaze turned to the large cloth bag. He wanted to ask Rogash in person what was going on with this female secret practitioner, even if he lost his life because of it.

Stuffing the 'Heart Flame' into his arms, Xusilo carried the large cloth bag and strode forward. Ahead was Baida City, where the Magic Association headquarters was located.
