Dominate the Treacherous Realm
Chapter 102
"what?"
Released Miss Audrey's hand, her face was a little red because of the pain.
"Why do I have one more ability? Knowledge gift? Miss Miller, this seems to be..."
"it does not matter."
Miss Miller narrowed her eyes and said softly, "This is a thank you for saving me. Fortunately, your response was timely. Don't worry. I have no interest in twin demons at all. And, last Wednesday night, I was Your attitude seems to be a bit bad. Since you are planning to be a friend, you naturally have to apologize. Of course, I hope this ability can help you. If you don’t need it, I can look for someone who can erase the ability..."
"No, I like it very much."
He nodded, and then showed a tangled expression. What is this lady seeking? The savior just mentioned?
From the conversation between the two just now, Jenkins was able to infer that the [twin demons], whose source is inexplicable and capable of manifesting the soul emblem, seems to be more than a simple ability. Combined with the "stage of destiny" mentioned by Miss Audrey during her first visit, he had a vague guess in his heart.
But he didn't plan to ask the two insiders directly. This is not the right occasion.
The three agreed not to talk about this treacherous adventure to anyone. After all, everyone just exposed their secrets to a greater or lesser extent. No matter if anyone else knows it, it is not a good thing.
Mr. Robinson’s relic, that is, the dirty twine was also brought out. Now it is temporarily kept by Miss Audrey. After identifying what it is, we will discuss the distribution plan.
Now that she talked about the gain, Miss Audrey reminded Jenkins that his reward was in her pocket.
Without hesitation, he stuck the card on the burnt-smelling cloth in front of his heart, and then slowly poured his own spirit into it. A special feeling swept over him, as if being blown by the warm wind of a hair dryer, and a layer of goose bumps formed all over his body.
He now knows why this ability is more precious than a blank bubble—this is actually the purple of fate: [Flame Favor].
He glanced at Miss Audrey and Miss Miller. These two ladies can be trusted for the time being. Although they can't be like Papa and Hathaway, they are not malicious towards themselves.
He intends to make friends with these two high-level gifters. The more he comes into contact with the more things, the more he can feel the weakness of his strength, and it is not a bad thing to have more friends.
So, Jenkins naturally said his ability. Miss Audrey actually knew it. This meant that Jenkins was destined to be hardly hurt by flames, and to show more luck in flame-related occasions or events.
"Great, all I lack is luck!"
Jenkins's body is indeed still a little uncomfortable, the ability of suspended animation is quite unfriendly to living people, and Jenkins's body is still weak and mortal.
Miss Miller and Miss Audrey left Jenkins on the left and right, and staggered to the main road, planning to find a carriage at the intersection.
At this moment, a familiar carriage appeared from another corner, and then quickly passed by the three of them. The soot-scented wind just opened the shade of light on the side of the carriage.
Hathaway Hesha looked out, and saw Jenkins wearing a black coat, with a prostrate face being supported by two beautiful ladies.
Jenkins looked in and saw Hathaway, who was still dressed, with a shallow hickey on the neck of the necklace.
Both of them pretended not to see each other, and did not even nod their heads to each other.
Hathaway was stunned for a while before she looked at the Goldilocks sitting next to her.
"Hathaway, do you see anything?"
"No, no."
The red-haired girl felt her mood deteriorated, but she didn't know the reason. She thought of the scene with Jenkins and the two girls again.
"Williamt, you..."
She lowered her head to look at her new shoes, then raised her head to look at her lover who looked at her caringly, feeling that she was really crazy.
#224-Chapter 224 Dungeon
Continue to walk forward, Jenkins lowered his head, and suddenly felt a lot worse. The hickey on the red-haired girl's neck seemed to be imprinted in his mind, even if he could guess its origin, it always felt awkward.
There are many inexplicable things he has experienced recently, and this mood is quickly forgotten.
Miss Audrey was going home to deal with the troublesome thing next door. She told them that there might be some important spy documents hidden there. She has nothing to do with this matter, but she doesn't want to be involved.
Miss Miller is now employed by an employer who can’t name her. She seems to be an official of the kingdom. When Robinson’s spy team stole a document, they took some private photos with privacy. The employer needed her to retrieve the photos without disturbing anyone. Now that Robinson is dead, she can only look for the man who was infected by the gear germ, hoping to gain something.
This is the fourth deception that Jenkins has experienced, or in other words, this is the fourth deception that he is forced to experience. He still hasn't figured out what the powerful ghost that persecuted Dad, Professor Burns and him in the basement of the castle was.
Looking at the dim sky shrouded by clouds, my mood became more gloomy.
I originally thought that there was no special acquisition in the treacherous realm, but when I experienced it carefully, there seemed to be something more in my body. Sitting in the carriage, closing my eyes and feeling it carefully, I didn't expect one more gift.
It was a flame that was burning quietly. He guided the gift to his finger, and the flame hovered above his index finger.
After repeated inspections, this is indeed an ordinary flame. However, the flame cannot ignite the object, it can only be attached to the object to make it burn. After taking back this gift, the burning state stopped.
To put it another way, this cluster of flames cannot be extinguished in any form, and the burning state can only be ended by recycling. Therefore, Jenkins decided to call it [Inextinguishable Fire].
"What's this? Abnormal fire?"
He was amused by himself, and couldn't help but laugh, as he changed his mood as gloomy as the weather. But I recalled what the old man had said, several kinds of flames that were classified as special items.
Today is Monday, and he has not yet asked Dad about the black market [Grant] auction. Thursday is the reading festival. Not only will I go to school to meet with Professor Burns’s students, but also participate in church activities, and then eat with my family.
Mr. Corpse’s party will be next week, and Mr. Hood’s party is still undetermined. He was probably frightened by the last time he ran into the pirate king-destroyer Fermischau, the party may have to be delayed for a long time.
The rest of the day, and the entire Tuesday, nothing happened. Jenkins enjoys a peaceful life and has learned a lot from his father.
The devil incident, this time is really coming to an end. The dead kelp has been identified as a descendant of the Asyash family. At his residence, the church seized a large number of prohibited items and desecrated materials.
Dad gave Jenkins a list of special items added by the diocese.
The Church of the Righteous God was very annoyed by this matter, because almost a powerful alien from another world came to our diocese. Through the pressure of the church, all the young people who participated in the devil's call were arrested. Even if it involved two or three noble heirs who would become nobles in the future, the kingdom did not raise any protest.
Maintaining the stability of the mortal world is the common task of the mundane and the extraordinary.
Daddy, under the name of "increase insights", asked Captain Bincy to lead Jenkins to "visit" the demon summoning ceremony, the most central place on Tuesday night.
It was the basement of a property near the east bank of the Westminster River, which belonged to the son of a baron who had been arrested.
This place was completely sealed off. Captain Bincy used at least three documents and two seals, and was allowed to enter after both of them released their soul emblems to confirm their identities.
"This is Miss Eve Garden of [Starry Sky and Balance] Church, and this is Mr. Orr of [Death and End] Church..."
Captain Binxi introduced everyone in the basement one by one. All of them are above level six.
Everyone is working individually, and the winding basement corridor has been artificially enlarged to a surprisingly large area. Most of the space is the same place as a black prison. Mottled black blood and yellow dirt are attached to the rusty iron fence, showing how terrible things have happened here.
There is no light source in the basement. The church people got some kerosene lamps and placed them in key positions, barely illuminating all the corners.
The air is filled with water vapor, as well as a very disgusting smell and the smell of oil, which reminds Jenkins's body of the days when the Williams family was a commoner. The two continued to move forward and greeted the people they met, all wearing black clothes. Captain Bincy introduced that this is an ancient tradition that must be followed when dealing with such things.
Jenkins turned his head and saw something lying on the rusty fence beside it, and there was a very faint red aura.
Captain Bincy also stopped and handed him the kerosene lamp in his hand. Jenkins approached cautiously, the fire light illuminated the dark cell, the floor was covered with straw, and a human-shaped object was leaning against the wall.
"Heh~"
The moment the light touched it, the ugly creature with a slender tongue and a face full of small holes, maggots protruding from the hole rushed towards the fence, and then was pulled back by the clattering chain.
Jenkins was taken aback, took a few steps back and almost fell down, but fortunately he was held by Captain Pennsi.
"You already knew what was inside?"
"Haha~ I'm sorry, Mr. Williams. But Father Oliver told me that it is an important step in the growth of the gifter to make you scared during this event."
Although he attributed the matter to the old man, a smile appeared on the man’s face:
"Okay, okay, don't worry. This is an unsuccessful demon who has been infused with demon power. You know, not everyone participates in the demon summoning event, it's all for excitement. There are others to live longer ......"
The smile on his face disappeared, and he turned into a serious expression. He tapped his fingers on the iron fence. Except for the iron filings, the monster in the cell twitched/moved again.
"Every mortal is mortal, so some people pay attention to it. Humph~ How can it be so easy to transform into a different species?"
After saying this, they stopped paying attention to the monster, and the two continued to move forward.
Chapter 225 Chapter 221 Doomsday Document
"Sir, what will the monster do then?"
Jenkins asked again, the surrounding cells are mostly empty, but there are still some similar scary creatures.
"According to the information seized from the residence of the descendant of the Asyash family, these things are the product of the failed transformation. I kept them here because I wanted to release them on the day the devil descended to cause some trouble, but I didn't expect to use them yet. I ran into you."
Jenkins's mouth twitched:
"I didn't do anything. He didn't realize that I was a gifter and took the initiative to kill me."
He thought this in his heart, and when he looked down, his black leather shoes stepped on a pool of semi-liquid substance of unknown composition. These things mixed with the soil, showing a very disgusting appearance and soft touch.
His mood is worse.
"These creatures will be handed over to the [Death and Ending] Church to grant them eternal death."
Captain Bincy continued the conversation. Even though the light here is very weak, he can always avoid the traps on the ground.
The area of this basement is a bit too large. It is hard to imagine what kind of manpower and material resources have been used to accomplish this kind of work in this era. Moreover, this was in the urban area, and it was not discovered at all.
Captain Bincy told Jenkins that the reason for maintaining such an area is because the owner here almost dug through the embankment. The house itself is in a block close to the river bank. The municipal department will never allow the digging of a basement in such a place.
At the end of the corridor is a circular area with pitted walls. The center is surrounded by haystacks and some skeletons, leaving only a narrow entrance.
A dry corpse was fished in the center of the circle, and an iron hook hung from above, hooking his limbs and neck. Jenkins didn't walk in, and Captain Bincy didn't allow him to do so.
can only be seen, under the feet of the corpse is a pile of flames still burning, crackling firewood, printing the huge shadow of the corpse on the stone wall above.
Unable to identify the gender of the corpse, that group of evil people made a terrible modification to it. The health/reproductive/organ parts are extremely smooth, without bumps and depressions, and the skin exhibits a smooth texture and almost reflective luster under the action of unknown oils.
The corpse’s eyes were closed tightly, the nose was cut off, and two curved horns were artificially inserted on both sides of the forehead. In Jenkins's eyes, it actually showed a faint black aura.
It turns out that through rituals, it is also possible to make temporary special items of black aura.
"Praise the sage, may your brilliance illuminate my way forward."
Seeing this terrible scene, Jenkins whispered the prayer, and then drew the holy emblem on his chest.
Captain Bincy told Jenkins that, based on the results of the current interrogation, the demon call began three years ago. After three years of hard work, these **** guys really summoned two high-ranking demons from a different space called "Magma Hell".
But while they were still planning a new conspiracy, the demon was reported by Jenkins for giving a contract to humans, and then killed by the descending saint.
And the core figure summoned by the devil, that is, the descendant of the Asyash family, unexpectedly ran into Jenkins afterwards. For a ridiculous reason—Little Abbott found some clues and wanted to report it to the church, so he found Jenkins at the banquet. The summoner tried to get rid of Jenkins, who was in the way, and was killed.
Captain Bincy praised Jenkins' recent actions in a low voice, thinking that this is the reason why the sage protects him and protects him.
While he was speaking, Jenkins scanned the surroundings with a special vision, only to see a faint mottled aura everywhere. There is only one cracked wall inlaid with this square red object.
This crack is not conspicuous. Due to the structure of the basement, there are such cracks everywhere on the wall here. There is no collapse here, and there should be believers in the hermit of destiny among the group of construction people.
This place will definitely be blocked for a long time, and Jenkins does not dare to hold the items found on this occasion, so there is no need to be greedy.
He pretended to follow Captain Bincy along the wall and walked around in this space, listening to him briefly introduce the terrible ritual process.
"what!"
He screamed softly, it turned out that the pocket watch had fallen out of his pocket.
Sorry smiled at Captain Bincy, and Jenkins bent over to pick it up. Then he raised his head suspiciously and looked at the crack in front of him.
"Sir, I'm sorry, maybe I'm too sensitive, but I seem to feel that there is something in it..."
After this, Captain Bincy, who completely trusted Jenkins, called some professionals. After breaking the soil around the crack, he really found a hard black slab embedded in the soil.
It is completely square, and it is perfectly embedded in the soil. It's not like being put in, it's more like being here. The square slabs are very new and completely stone in terms of color. Its surface is exceptionally clean, as if it has been polished and cleaned, and it has not been stained with any dirt or stains.
There is a short poem on the stone slab, using the current lingua franca. When the fire of the kerosene lamp illuminates it, everyone, including Jenkins, under the control of incomprehensible desire, spoke out the words in a strange tone:
"The eighteenth era has come to the end,
The legendary savior stepped onto the stage of destiny;
After the prologue was announced,
The twin demons have quietly come to the front of the stage.
He is wearing a black robe,
Under the gaze of the great,
laughed wildly and announced the coming of the new god.
God said, as long as it's you, it's you, go ahead;
The people said, please leave, please leave, the wreckage of disaster.
the hesitant figure looked up at the clock tower,
咚~
