Chapter 170: An external employee of the Doomsday Prophecy
Guild?
The boy was a little confused after hearing Angel's words, and looked at his captain Barbara.
The female mage said softly: "Philip, Lord Angel is the deputy city lord of the City of Order and the head of the Adventurer's Guild branch here. "
You work as a staff member under her and are responsible for some work related to adventurers on weekdays. The hunting of monsters in the team does not affect each other. "
Of course she hopes that Philip can establish a relationship with Angel, so that her team can be closer to this powerful warrior.
"Your name is Philip, right? "
The female warrior seemed to have an expressionless face all the time. She said in a light tone: "The City of Order originally had a great mage who studied necromancy.
"It's just that he is currently in the lower area. It may take two days before he can come back before the ruins are opened. You can let him guide you then." Archmage of the
Undead?
Although Phillip was a little curious about other necromancers and ruins, he didn't ask any more questions now.
He nodded and said, "Thank you, madam, I will do my best in the next inquiry." "
Then I'm going to start."
After saying that, Phillip took out a black staff, held it with both hands and poked it in front of him. on the ground.
He closed his eyes and began to recite a spell: "Great Lord of Hell, please liberate the lost souls and let them appear here..." After a few breaths, gusts of
cold wind blew around him, and in the void Four vague and transparent figures gradually appeared.
"Asa..."
Rand's eyes slowly widened, and he couldn't help but let out a soft sigh, but he kept silent for fear of disturbing the spell.
When the dead souls in the void were completely stabilized, Philip began to ask: "What happened to you people?" The
dead souls could not speak, and no one else could hear any answers. Only the necromancer who cast the interrogation technique could get the answer.
Soon, illusory images appeared in Philip's mind.
It was the undead sharing his memories of his life with him, and he could even hear intermittent voices:
an adventurer discovered a suspicious person hiding in the dark, took aim with his bow and arrow, and then a figure in black armor appeared and spoke. After speaking, he opened the helmet visor...
Several dead souls dissipated, and the soul-searching was over.
"What happened? What happened to them?" Barbara asked confused.
Because she just saw a sudden change in the boy's face, as if she had seen a shocking scene.
Rand also hurriedly asked: "What did you see? Did a man in black armor kill them? Do you recognize that man?" Including several
other adventurers, and Shiratori Angel, at this time Their eyes were fixed on Phillip, waiting for him to give an answer.
"..."
After a few seconds of silence, Philip said:
"Yes, I saw a man in black armor, but the people who were killed obviously didn't recognize him, and he didn't show his appearance." "What about his ability
? ? Where are the weapons? Where are the voices?"
Rand frowned and continued to ask: "Is there no other characteristics except armor? The murderer must have said something, right?" "
...No."
The young man shook his head slowly, his tone calm. He said:
"The voice was distorted by magic, and the picture obtained by asking the spirit was incomplete. I didn't see the specific spells used by the other party."
As for the words, I only heard the other party say, 'Go to hell'. there is none left. "
After saying this, Rande and his teammates looked at each other: Isn't this no valuable information at all?
"There is nothing we can do about it. Angel
said calmly: "I will ask the people below to issue the wanted order as usual, but you'd better not expect too much results."
" Thank you very much, Deputy City Lord. " Rande
clenched his fists and said with a sullen face:
"However, even if the guild's wanted order has no effect, I will find a way on my own and will never let that person go!" As long as he's still on the middle floor, he can't escape! " Philip on the side saw that no one else doubted his words. He was relieved and worried at the same time...
The
next day, an urgent wanted order was issued from the City of Order:
The reward is on the 26th floor. The murderer of Feng Jin Road, codenamed "Black Samurai", has a bounty of 20,000 gold coins.
A portrait in black full-body armor was posted next to the city gate, lined up with other wanted criminals.
...
[Bounty increase, experience +600, free points +3]
[Successfully evaded for one day, experience +20, strength +0.2]
Bounty increased?
Roja looked at the text that appeared on the panel.
Is it because the abnormality of some monsters on the 21st-26th floor attracted the attention of the guild? Or is it because someone was killed yesterday?
'City of Order, is there a new wanted order?'
"Yesterday..." the man said, "Someone was killed on the 26th floor..."
Oh, that's it.
At this time, Roja was Staying in a cave on the 25th floor, sitting on a seat made of frost.
Under his feet lay several controlled sand wolves - as long as the original monsters are still there, no new ones will be born in this cave. The monster.
Standing in front of him was a male warrior who had reached level three and was wearing black leather armor. The
male warrior stood there blankly, his eyes were blank, and he was already in a state of being hypnotized by the young dragon.
'What is this?'
After asking about the wanted order, Roja took out a black square metal plate with a silver bull head pattern engraved on it. "
This is... the transfer spell to enter the 'Contradictory Spiral' ," the male warrior spoke slowly.
At Roja's request,
he began to tell all the relevant information about Demon God Lati and the ruins he left behind.
"...Demon God Lati is good at time and space magic and the observation of fate. Most famously, he once made predictions about the end of the world. "
Prophecy of the Great Doomsday?
Roja was very surprised when he suddenly heard this.
The man continued to say unconsciously: "He predicted... that the Great Doomsday will come before all races naturally die out.
"——The sky will fall, the earth will overturn, the sea will dry up, and the souls and flesh of all life will be swallowed up by darkness and nothingness." Is there such a
saying?
Roja asked curiously: 'When will the end come? '
The man replied: "In the spiral of contradictions, there is a huge bell tower made of stone. Every time the ruins are opened, the bell tower will make a new prediction of the arrival time of the doomsday... "The time of the last prediction... I don't know
, The guild prohibits adventurers from spreading or discussing this news..."
Roja asked: 'Did the Demon God only make a prophecy and not give a plan to avoid the doomsday?'
The man said: "This is the Demon God's presence. The ultimate puzzle left in the ruins, someone once gave the correct answer.
"The answer is: In the era of imminent doomsday, the world needs to give birth to new heroes..."
