Latest URL: There is only one enemy on the second floor, while there are three corpse dogs on the third floor. They are not disembodied undead, but undead creatures resembling ghouls. The whole body is as pale as rotten flesh, and there are wrinkles and signs of decay everywhere on the body. The appearance is almost identical, and they move very quickly. They even have wisdom and know how to cooperate to attack.

Xia De encountered them as soon as he went upstairs, and almost suffered a big loss by rushing back. Fortunately, we retreated back to the stairs in time, and we can face the enemy one by one on the narrow stairs.

To be honest, the combination of three dogs is much more terrifying than a powerful single humanoid undead.

The ground of the third floor was still covered with a layer of dust of unknown origin like the outside, like ashes. Besides the footprints of the three dead dogs just now, there were other messy footprints on the dust.

These footprints have been processed, but the traces have not been completely smoothed out... Xia De observed it and thought that at least three different people appeared here recently:

"Hope is a vestige of the last 36 hours."

Thinking in his heart, he used the thaumaturgy [Echo of the Past].

This thaumaturgy can listen to the voices of the past, and is more inclined to human voices. And in the narrow space, where the sound cannot travel too far, and there are almost no living people, Xia De succeeded in his first attempt:

"Professor, you guys really escaped?"

It was the voice of Joey Barton, his lung-damaged timbre recognizable.

"I escaped, but the people we sent to the Mibao area from the Truth Society almost wiped out this time. The church's attack was precise and ruthless."

Xia De raised his eyebrows. Both the witches and Iluna mentioned that on the night of the Battle of the Ice Lake, most of the [Truth Society] people in the area were killed or arrested, and only a few slipped through the net. Unexpectedly, they did not leave Fort Midhill, but found Joey Barton in the narrow room. Or maybe it was Joey Barton who found them.

"But fortunately, we have learned the lesson of [Blood Spirit Sect]. Although many people were sent this time, only one of the Twelve Ring Warlocks came, so this is not a painful lesson. Listen to [ Blood Weeper Hermons from the Blood Spirit Sect almost escaped."

People always seem to like to laugh at the less fortunate when they are in trouble.

"Mr. Button, although I don't know how you found us in the narrow room, but the council has already informed us that we will not participate in the matter of Fort Midhill. You are staying here now because you want to recover Some materials in the narrow room. The loss is so big this time, at least those alchemy items worth tens of thousands of pounds must be recovered."

The person who said this has been using Carson Rico, while Mr. Barton speaks De La Rion with a heavy Middleburg accent.

"Do you know that I am the chosen one?"

Mr. Barton asked very calmly, and after a few seconds of pause, he gave an answer in Kaseric:

"We didn't dare to show up in the city, but we also heard some news. It's really surprising. It turns out that the target we've been looking for is our own people. Mr. Button, I heard about you at the meeting, but now .”

Xia De heard him sigh as expected:

"The chosen person who died, you can only work **** your own, and you will make up your mind not to participate in this matter. The current loss is too great. Although helping you may get greater benefits, we must stop the loss in time. We cannot Too greedy."

If the ring warlocks of [Society of Truth] can give up their crazy ideas, in fact, most of them are enough to be called wise men.

"I don't need your material help, I want some knowledge."

Mr. Button said.

"What knowledge?"

"Integrating the knowledge of the relic, I know it will not be completely successful, but at least there is a preliminary experimental plan."

Shad frowned, looking at the empty room in front of him. He believed that not long ago, another person involved in the conversation had the same expression.

"Fusion relic, do you want to... Joey Barton, you want to fight against the Orthodox Church alone?"

"I know that I am weak, so I think of other ways. I can feel the goodwill of the narrow space itself. It doesn't want to be sealed, and I want to break the boundary between life and death. Therefore, Hazama is willing to let me use part of its power. Professor, which one do you think is stronger, the 0-level relic or the thirteen-ring warlock who controls countless evil spirits?"

"What a madman."

Carson Rik expressed very dirty words, and Shad tentatively regarded it as the meaning of "lunatic".

"I am honored to be called a lunatic by the professors of the [Truth Society]. What I have to do is to enter the real death through one of the three passages, and then bring her back. So, are you willing to trade? I know Knowledge has a price, so if I do become the chosen one in Fort Midhill, I am willing to join you."

What happened next was no surprise. The "fish that slipped through the net" of the Truth Society gave Joey Barton the information he wanted, and even sent the [Truth Society] to "The Narrow Room of Life and Death", "The Gate of Death" and so on. All research materials were given to him.

In the words of the professor:

"These materials are all backed up. It's not a loss if you give them to you. It's a profitable investment. But if you are arrested by the church, don't let us give you this. You picked it up yourself."

And at the end of this conversation, the "professor" who spoke Kasonlik gave Joey Barton something. Shad can only hear voices, so he doesn't know what it is:

"Professor, what is this?"

Mr. Button also had the same doubts.

"We originally planned to try to guide the power of death in the narrow room. We wanted to repeat the undead refining in the witch alchemy of the fifth era and make some interesting things, so we prepared quite a few ritual items. This one in your hand, It is an ancient relic that will be dug up in the New World. From the research, it seems to be a sacrificial item of the ancient death church, and it may be useful if I give it to you."

Thus, Joey Barton obtained items related to the power of the ancient gods.

The conversation ended, the two parties left separately, and Xia De followed the footsteps to the window. At this time, the last red butterfly on the shoulder finally broke away from the skin and appeared in the narrow space. It slowly flew towards the house opposite the rear window, and stopped in front of the wall outside the window to prevent people inside the window from seeing it.

Behind the Oak Street shops is a muddy alley, and on the other side of the alley are apartment buildings for rent. Because of the dense fog and the suppression of the field of vision by the narrow space, Xia De could only see the red butterfly swaying vaguely, and could not see what was inside the window at all. But judging from Red Butterfly's performance, there is a high probability that the clown is inside:

"Hiding so close?"

The window in front of him had no glass for a long time. Xia De looked down while leaning on the somewhat difficult window sill, and found that there were not a few souls wandering in the alley.

"If I take a detour, even with the witch's blessing to avoid the enemy, I'm afraid I still have to defeat a bunch of evil spirits. It's a waste of time."

Carefully climbed onto the window sill, cast the [Frog's Leap] spell without material, jumped suddenly, and jumped across the alley to the red butterfly who was pointing the direction. But Xia De did not choose to let himself break through the window and enter the room. Instead, after approaching the opposite window in the air, he concentrated on continuing to use thaumaturgy:

"Ragley's Jump!"

Shad in the air disappeared, and then appeared in the window smoothly.

Standing firm, he turned around and stretched out his right hand. The flying red butterfly landed on his fingertips, and then flew towards his shoulder very affectionately.

I glanced at the room, but there was no one in sight. Xia De snapped his fingers, silver mist gushed out, and the illusion surrounded him.

Push open the door and continue walking outside, the dilapidated and dark corridor is like a haunted house in a story. Red Butterfly guided Xia De to the room at the deepest part of the corridor, which should be a guest room according to the house type.

No sound came from inside, but the target was undoubtedly here. Xia De hesitated for a moment, dispelled the illusion, and then knocked on the door with his fingers.

boom boom boom~

Standing at the door and waiting patiently, at 2 minutes and 37 seconds after the last knock on the door, the door was opened, and behind the door was the middle-aged man who looked like a deformed child.

At the end of the ice battle last week, he was pierced by Iluna's "sunshine gun" from behind, but at this time he could not see any signs of injury. It's just obvious that a lot of vicissitudes have changed, and he looks younger than last week.

Joey Barton looked up at the people at the door, hesitating for a moment:

"Mr. Watson?"

"it's me."

Mr. Button sighed:

"Why come to me? Do you really think that you can convince me?"

Shad looked into the room behind him, but Mr. Button immediately took a step back, and then slammed the door shut.

【Ran. 】

"What?"

[Key to the Door] Open the locked door, there is no trace of Joey Barton and the clown in the empty room.

The red butterfly on the shoulder immediately flew towards the window, and Xia De came to the window quickly, just in time to see the deformed "child" carrying a suitcase, disappearing into the corner of the street at the edge of his vision.

The undead wandering on the street had no intention of attacking him at all. He walked freely through the streets without dodging any attacks.

"The Illusion of Moon Shadow."

The silver mist surged again, and Xia De jumped from the window on the third floor to the ground. After landing, he followed the red butterfly and chased in the direction of Joey Barton.

"How is it going?"

Miss Aurora's distant voice sounded in my ears again.

"I found the other party, and he ran away when he saw me. Oh, I encountered some troubles. Although I have the help of illusion, the evil spirits are preventing me from catching up. The enemies are too dense."

"Wait a minute, my mother-in-law and I will help you catch up"

The sound was intermittent until it disappeared completely, and the souls wandering in the narrow space finally noticed him because of Shade's excessive approach. But at the next moment, an extremely cold chill appeared from the top of his head and quickly penetrated his whole body, and a circular ceremony matrix exuding an ambiguous gray light appeared at Xia De's feet.

The appearance of this ritual matrix made the evil spirits who were already preparing to attack ignore Xia De again. Xia De tried to get a few steps closer to it, but the other party didn't respond at all.

"Witches really have tricks."

He continued to catch up.

Shad didn't know what Joey Barton was doing in the closet. He obviously still only has one ring, but he runs faster than Xia De. Even though Xia De used [Ragley's Jump] to move in space every ten seconds, the two chased and fled, and they still ran more than half a circle around the city center in the narrow space before finally letting Xia De in the distance. In the shaded square one block from Oak Street, I caught up with Joey Barton.

The green square in the real world is a semi-park square in the center of Fort Midhill, while the narrow space is as desolate as a misty cemetery.

Shad and Mr. Button faced each other in the fog, and the surrounding evil spirits appeared and disappeared in the fog.

"Where's the clown?"

Xia De still didn't see the second nail, but Hongdie restlessly pointed in the direction of the man in front of him.

"Swallowed by me."

Mr. Button pointed to himself:

"I was seriously injured and need to recover myself. Don't worry, once I fully digest its power, this nail will be considered removed."

His voice was still hoarse.

"Since you know about the gap and the nail, you should also know that at the moment when the balance of life and death is so fragile, if you bring back a dead person from death, the broken balance will directly lead to the collapse of the gap."

"Yes, but if I don't do this soon, once the church reseals the bay, I won't have a chance to get her back."

Mr. Barton looked at Shad with no expression on his face:

"Mr. Watson, you have heard me tell my story. Let me ask you again. Do you really think you can persuade me?"

"For the resurrection of the dead, are you willing to let a whole city die?"

Xia De asked back, Mr. Button nodded:

"I know it's wrong to do this, but I still want it, yes. The most important thing to me in this world is her. Even if I make a big mistake, I will never give up this only chance. Moth, I'm willing to do it."

Although he had already thought that the other party might be like this, Shad still wanted to sigh after hearing what Joey Barton said:

"Don't think too high of yourself. You have to think about it. If you do this, you will be the enemy of the Orthodox Church, the Three Thaumaturgical Academy, and even most of the ring magician groups. Even if you are the chosen one, even if you are really The ceremony was successfully held, and there will never be a place for you to live in the material world~lightnovelpub.net~I have already made up my mind."

Mr. Button pointed to his feet, he had already thought of everything:

"After I bring Marilyn back, we will live here, in Midhill Castle, which has completely merged with the narrow space and turned into a forbidden place for ghosts and ghosts. With the talent of the chosen ones, the undead will not harm me, they are me The best partner. It is impossible for the Orthodox Church to catch me among thousands of undead."

"Mr. Button, let me ask you one last time. Are you sure that even if you sacrifice tens of millions of lives, you will bring your beloved back from the sleep of death."

Xia De asked seriously:

"This is really, the last inquiry."

Looking at John Watson in the thick fog, Joey Button vaguely understood that this issue would determine many things in the future.
