Chapter 487: The Urgent Seeing Da Yi

The Urgent Seeing Da Yi

Although Seeing Da Yi is a hot-tempered believer of 【War】, he has one good point: he never interrupts the rhythm of his teammates' work.

Seeing Cheng Shi fall into deep thought after the interrogation, he just frowned but didn't urge anything further.

After a while, Cheng Shi looked up from his thoughts and asked the historian again:

"Is there any token in the Losina Empire that symbolizes imperial power or divine power?"

The old man was stunned and nodded quickly: "Yes... the Scepter of Sin-Cleansing in the Emperor's hand is the highest symbol of royal power. However, that scepter has already been taken away."

"What does that scepter look like?"

"One person tall, three fingers wide, carved from whole wood, with an ink-green gemstone embedded at the top of the scepter."

Cheng Shi frowned and eliminated another option.

Having failed to get the result he wanted after several inquiries, he had to change to a more direct way of asking.

"What about the dagger? Is there any famous dagger in the empire? Perhaps it's not a dagger, but similar in function to a dagger; anything similar will do. Is there one?"

Hearing this, Old Jialun finally knew that these powerful humans weren't looking for people, but were searching for a dagger.

He racked his brains for a while, and then suddenly widened his eyes and said:

"It seems... there was one."

"!!!"

Everyone instantly perked up, and Seeing Da Yi even lifted Jialun directly, quite excitedly saying: "Damn it, it's finally here. What's it called? Where is it?"

Old Jialun was terrified. He kept trembling, his lips quivering as he replied:

"The First Imperial Prince once traded with a foreign caravan and purchased a dagger that could cut through iron like mud, and showed it to others many times. But after a period of time, he sealed the dagger away and strictly ordered everyone not to mention it again.

This matter happened a long time ago, or rather, few people remember it. If it weren't for my child being close with the First Imperial Prince's child, and accidentally bumping into his secret room while playing, perhaps no one would remember..."

Cheng Shi sneered after hearing this: "Such a coincidence? Your child bumped into it?"

"I... what I said is all fact."

Cheng Shi could naturally tell he wasn't lying, but the problem is, isn't this too coincidental?

"The First Imperial Prince is the same age as you?

Then isn't your Emperor over a hundred years old?

What, is there really a Crown Prince of several decades?"

Old Jialun's expression stalled, and he replied with a face full of sorrow: "I was born in the 64th year of the New Losina Calendar, and I am only... 36 years old so far."

"..."

"..."

36...

Brother, 36 is fine, but I'd believe you if you said 93, let alone 63, given your state.

As expected of a believer of 【Decay】, you look devout.

It's no wonder your Emperor wants to run. If the prime of Losina is like you, even if this war to resist foreign insults were to be fought, it would just be mental patients slaughtering their way through a nursing home...

Cheng Shi's expression suddenly became strange. His gaze toward Old Jialun even carried a hint of pity. Although this thought was very hellish, he couldn't help but think: No wonder the Emperor didn't take you when he ran away; isn't over 35 the age to be optimized?

Didn't expect it, this set of rules actually applies to the Continent of Hope in the Sinking Era.

Hearing this, Seeing Da Yi couldn't sit still anymore. He asked urgently: "Damn it, where is the First Imperial Prince's residence? When he left, did he take that dagger? If you know, lead the way quickly, don't force me to slap you!"

"The First Imperial Prince, he..."

"?"

What does this pause mean? Is there another twist?

Again!?

Cheng Shi was a bit numb. His gaze toward Old Jialun suddenly carried scrutiny, his eyes narrowed slightly as if wondering if this historian was some unclear peer?

Are you playing monkey with me here?

Bad, my paranoia is acting up. The more I look, the more he looks like one. So is he a peer of 【Deception】 or a peer of 【Fate】?

Cheng Shi's gaze froze, the more he thought, the more uneasy he felt, but he didn't rush to act, instead glancing at Poison thoughtfully.

Although he had built up a reputation for being cunning with Hu Wei, he didn't want to overly display his caution and shrewdness, so he thought of using a tool person again.

And the tool person for this match was undoubtedly the intelligence core, Miss Poison.

The moment Poison saw Cheng Shi looking at her, she sensed his suspicious mood. As a desire catalyst who "accepts all comers," she understood and immediately acted thoughtfully, snatching Jialun from Seeing Da Yi's hand, and then tearing open the other party's clothes in the gale and snow, revealing the scars all over his abdomen and back.

But the scars of this historian were different from the scars on the couple before; the scars on his body were crisscrossed, overlapping, and hideous, covering his whole body, looking as if he had endured much more suffering than that couple.

Seeing this, everyone frowned. Only Cheng Shi seemed to feel that these scars had some meaning, but before he could think carefully, Seeing Da Yi dragged the person back, cursing:

"Damn it, Poison, are you trying to snatch someone from my hands?

I advise you to be honest. Don't forget, we don't know where Gong Yangjiao is."

He grabbed Jialun and asked again: "Speak quickly, where is the First Imperial Prince, and where is his dagger?"

Jialun was frozen badly. He stammered:

"The First Imperial Prince, he... was expelled from the palace by the Emperor.

As for his collection and forbidden items, they were probably swept away by the guards long ago..."

"?" Seeing Da Yi was stunned, "You mean, the person is still there, but the dagger is gone?"

Old Jialun nodded fearfully.

"Boom—"

Seeing Da Yi released his hand with a gloomy expression, spat fiercely, and said: "Damn it, I'm afraid I won't be able to convince myself if I don't go look for it personally. Old man, where is the First Imperial Prince's palace?"

Jialun pointed in a direction tremblingly. Seeing Da Yi scanned the crowd and only said "Wait for me" before disappearing again. Watching Seeing Da Yi's urgent appearance, Cheng Shi was even more puzzled.

Are these 【War】 brutes really so covetous of Diezel's soul?

This is too undisguised.

Even if the other party is the soul of a Messenger, for players, how to get benefits from a Messenger's soul is a tricky thing, right? How does this person seem to have already found some method?

Wait!

Cheng Shi suddenly remembered what the Grand Marshal had said. He said he knew some things from an extremely reliable information channel. At that time, Cheng Shi was still wondering if that channel came from Them... Now thinking about it carefully, it seems it's not impossible.

Could their source of information be their patron 【War】?

Does 【War】 also want to stir up some trouble after 【Prosperity】 falls?

It's not impossible, but this doesn't look like the Him in his impression.

It couldn't be... 【Chaos】?

Hu Wei's second faith is 【Chaos】, that makes sense, but Seeing Da Yi? Is his second faith also prepared to invest in 【Chaos】?

Two War believers standing behind 【Chaos】?

?

Thinking of this, Cheng Shi's expression instantly became strange. Bad, could it be that I went out to work and ran into people from a brother company.

If I take out a director's badge of the brother company now, Seeing Da Yi... he wouldn't believe it, would he? ===== CHAPTER 488 =====
