Ancient God Library

Chapter 213
Li Cang is a middle-aged man.

His temples were already slightly gray, his hair was meticulously groomed, he was wearing exquisite formal clothes, and he had a smile on his face all the time, with a mature charm.

Just like that kind of weather-beaten middle-aged man, there are many stories at a glance.

After he finished speaking, all the guests cheered happily, and were very interested in the bonfire dinner he said.

Barry whispered beside Romon: "This guy is very famous recently, because his conversation is likeable, and he is generous. Although he is new here, he has quickly integrated into the aristocratic circle. Former foreign nobles came to Jianhai here. On the other hand, people will be rejected.”

Romon asked, "How much do you know about the bonfire dinner?"

Barry said solemnly: "It's the custom in Bonham City. Unlike ordinary bonfire banquets, there used to be many Kagon people in Bonham City. The gods prayed, eliminated demons, and protected health, and finally evolved into a custom, and the bonfire party here should be like this."

The two followed the large army and came to the back of the manor.

This is a well-maintained back garden, in addition to the countless exotic trees planted in it, there are all kinds of single-family houses.

In the center of the garden, there is a huge bonfire made of wood, which is burning fiercely.

Next to the bonfire, a large open space was also cleared.

A dazzling array of delicacies are placed on the wooden tables, and the crystal chandeliers next to them are quietly burning, and the hazy and dreamy light reflects the beauty of the place.

A group of nobles made a lively conversation at this moment.

The Jianhai aristocrats living in the capital of the Plantagenet Empire and the surrounding areas have always had a more moderate and regular way of communication, either balls, banquets, or listening to operas, plays, etc. No one has ever held such a gathering of people. Campfire dinner together.

The curiosity in my heart was hard to restrain for a while.

There was a strong cheer for the fresh scene here.

"Everyone, this is a blessing bonfire from my hometown. According to legend, those who dance in front of the bonfire will be blessed by the flames and drive away sickness and suffering."

Li Cang stood in front of the bonfire and said enthusiastically.

A group of nobles quickly integrated into this wild carnival party and started their friendship time. Affected by the bonfire, the fire reflected on everyone's face, making the atmosphere extremely warm.

Romon and Barry sat in the corner with food from the table.

"How's it going? Are you sure there's a problem here? If I want to do something, then I'm going to withdraw first." Barry was a little worried at this time, afraid that he would be in trouble.

Although he is also a Tier [-], he is built by strong piles. His real combat power is not strong, and he can only draw a tie with some Tier [-] Peak Awakeners. It is definitely not possible to face the enemies of the law enforcement team.

So if Romon has determined the target and is ready to start here, he can only run away so as not to be affected.

Luo Meng rolled the eyes of the dead fish, "I'm not sure, but there are seven or eight layers of possibilities, so I want to run away? Don't you want to make some contribution to the White Tower?"

Barry sneered, "Aren't you kidding me, my salary is only five pounds a month, should I work hard?"

That's right.

Luo Meng thought about himself, didn't he also live in the Baita, and now he joined the law enforcement team because he owed a huge debt in the library.

"Even if I find out that he is the target person, I will not do it."

Romon's next sentence reassured Barry, "If it's confirmed, I'll notify the rest of the law enforcement team first, so you can rest assured that we're just the guests who came to the banquet today, don't think too much."

Over time.

The bonfire banquet has almost come to an end. According to Li Cang, the custom of their Bonham City, at the end of the banquet, the participating guests will dance a dance around the bonfire.

Those who dance these dances will be blessed.

Everyone was having fun at the moment, and naturally not many people refused, and soon they gathered in a circle and danced around the bonfire.

Of course, some people felt that this was inappropriate and did not participate.

While everyone was enjoying the banquet, Romon discovered that there was a very special girl sitting in the corner like him, and did not participate in this eager carnival.

The reason why Romon noticed her.

Not only because of her frequent gazes and her incompatibility with other people attending the banquet, but also because Romon felt a very familiar feeling about her.

It's like an old friend I haven't seen in a long time.

This feeling was quickly recalled to him.

Anne Bell.

The child of Dorothy's friend, the girl who seemed to come from a big family.

"No, she doesn't have any resemblance to Annie's appearance. Could it be that she did a disguise?" Romon frowned.

After arriving in the sea.

Dorothy sent Annie back.

Later, Romon also investigated the Bell family and found that there was no information to be found, so he did not continue to pay attention.

He asked Dorothy that the Bell family is a family of killers, and it is difficult to know their specific information through general channels.

"This shouldn't be Annie, but she is a member of the Bell family, so she has the same bloodline as Annie's, which makes me feel familiar." Romon immediately made a judgment.

at this time.

Found the girl who had been noticed by Romon and walked towards him.

Because the two have seen each other.

"My name is Bai Li, and I come from the Bell family. You have the blood of my family. Within a year, you have been in contact with the Bell family."

The girl sat down beside Romon, took a glass of juice and sucked, "Only people who live with this kind of blood will get a little bit of it.

And recently, in the family, only Annie came back from outside.

So you should be called Romon, not the name on the guest register, Marin.

You are now living in the White Tower, thinking of the recent madness.

So you are here to investigate Li Cang, I can tell you directly that he is a member of the Crazy Society in disguise. "

Hearing the girl say such a big call, Luo Meng was slightly surprised.

This guy is from the Bell family.

But his mind is surprisingly clear, and he has a lot of information, so he can analyze his true identity as soon as they meet.

"There have also been some conflicts between our family and the Crazy Society, so I was sent by my mother to resolve the dispute with the Crazy Society. I would love to see Baita attack the Crazy Society, so I will take you to a place, you go You'll know after that."

Bai Li said coldly.

Talking to her, Romon felt like he was talking to a cold machine.

At most, she was about the same age as Annie, but she looked old-fashioned.

Romon asked, "Where?"

Bai Li looked at the darkness on the edge of the manor: "The awakening place of the Crazy Academy is in this manor. Believe in my efficiency, I am a professional killer."

professional killer...

Romon really had nothing to say to this old-fashioned child.

However, Romon was very concerned about what she said. If there is no misunderstanding of the meaning of the land of awakening, it should be the place where the madman learned to create the awakened.

Create a large number of Awakened in a short period of time, and many have reached the third order.

This is the fundamental reason why the Crazy Society can develop and grow.

If this matter can be solved, the power of the madness will be weakened by a large part, it will become less fearful, and it will be difficult to win people's hearts again.

"Afraid that I will lie to you?"

Bai Li stared at Luo Meng with big eyes: "If I really want to harm you, I will directly expose your identity here, and the people who are crazy about it will come over immediately."

Romon shook his head: "I don't doubt your identity, I'm just wondering if you might have been discovered by the Crazy Academy. It stands to reason that a place like the Awakening Land is definitely the place where the Crazy Academy is. There are experts guarding it. You can enter safely from the inside and leave again, maybe the other party did it on purpose."

Bai Li immediately denied: "Impossible, didn't I tell you, I'm a professional killer, how could I be discovered."

"Okay, then I'll go see with you, how is Annie?"

"After returning home, I was learning how to liberate blood. My father gave a death order. If you don't learn it, you can't leave the house." Bai Li shook her head and didn't say more.

Barry can't move around casually.

He has a lot of acquaintances here, it's easy to attract attention if he leaves, and he doesn't want to take risks.

Luo Meng followed behind Bai Li, and the two quickly left the sidewalk. While everyone was dancing the bonfire, no one noticed that these two people suddenly left the arena.

Follow Bai Li to the other side of the manor.

She took out a shovel from the bushes next to it, and dug down hard at a place in the manor.

Originally, Romon thought that digging like this would probably take a while.

But just a few minutes later, Bai Li dug a big hole, and a dark cave was exposed under the big hole.

With a proud look on her face: "This secret passage, I spent a day digging out, is absolutely hidden. Below is the base of the Crazy Society, and they can continue to produce Awakeners because of the reason here. But I only bring Come and take a look, you must not do anything, there is a very strong guard below, don't disturb him!"

Roman said he understood.

The two slowly meandered down from the dark tunnel, and when they came to the end, the scenery in front of them suddenly became clear.

There is actually an underground cave below, and the end of the passage is directly above the cave hall.

Looking down from the passageway through the gap, it is an oval hall with torches hanging on the wall. A man with six arms, hunched on the ground, is giving a few young people with longing faces. Instill a variety of knowledge.

These people looked just like the students Romon had seen before.

Turn a blind eye to the monster in front of him, and treat it as a normal human being, and learn from him.

They should have just joined the Crazy Society and haven't transformed into core believers.

"This is their mission field. It will only impart some introductory extraordinary knowledge. What can really turn ordinary people into awakened ones is a statue, which should be the god with thousands of eyes and thousands of hands in their mouths."

Bai Li was beside this passage, and then got into another smaller passage.

Then detour all the way and come to a deeper hole in the ground.

The number of awakened people here has suddenly increased. There are often second-order awakened people passing by in the corridor, and there are even third-order awakened people.

But they look very strange.

Either there are many twisted arms growing on the body, or there are several eyes on the face, and none of them are normal anyway.

Thinking of the Awakened Maniac who could manipulate birds and fish and hide his grotesque body shape, Romon guessed that when these people acted outside, they would only reveal their original body shape after being attacked by terror.

"Continue to go inside. It's the statue that can transform ordinary people into awakened ones. But there is a guy there who is very powerful and may be in danger." Bai Li whispered: "The Crazy Society has forged a relationship with our family. With Liangzi, I will do it the day after tomorrow, are you interested in cooperating?"

"I am a member of the law enforcement team now, and the action depends on the arrangement of the law enforcement team. If you don't mind, I can react to the captain and see how she thinks." Romon replied in a low voice.

Bai Li nodded: "Yes, no matter what you do, the time I set will not change. Let's go, there is a risk of being discovered if you continue to stay here."

The two rushed back immediately.

This is the base camp of the enemy, once the whereabouts are discovered, it will immediately fall into a hard battle.

But just as the two of them backed away, the sound of precise footsteps suddenly sounded in the hole below.

"The above has been prepared, and the ceremony can be started after a while. You should also prepare quickly, don't let the adults wait for a long time." An angry man instructed the other members of the Crazy Society.

The footsteps of the two of them stopped again.

Romon and Bai Li had a tacit understanding, lying in this passage at the same time.

"It's ready, you can let the adults hold the ceremony at any time, this time we will definitely make many people become servants of God!"

A man answered with a frenzy on his face.

"Well, take the materials and be careful."

The conversation between the two came to an abrupt end.

Then there was another messy footstep, and a large number of members of the Crazy Society began to get busy.

The two took advantage of this moment to slip away from the passage.

Bai Li frowned: "It seems that those nobles won't be able to survive much tonight. I have to leave first. It doesn't matter to me whether these guys live or die."

Romon didn't say much: "See you another day."

Bai Li nodded and disappeared under the darkness of the night in an instant.

Look at the gloomy sky.

Romon also felt that the situation here was not good, and was going to inform Barry and leave the manor.

No matter what Crazy Academy is going to do, it is the most important thing to inform the captain and other team members of the news here.

He went back to the garden for the bonfire party.

Most of the people haven't left yet, still eating, drinking and having fun here, exchanging feelings with other friends around the bonfire.

Barry was called aside by Romon.

"what happened?"

The drunkenness on Barry's face quickly sobered up and said to Romon: "I asked a few friends about the impression of the manor owner just now, and the results were all very good. If your target is him, be careful of other nobles."

Romon glanced at him: "That's right, we should leave now, as for the other nobles, don't worry about them... If you don't want to get involved in this later, stay in the Baita office after you go back today, don't If you do superfluous things, you will not be affected.”

Barry glanced at the guests next to him: "Will something happen tonight?"

"Maybe."

Romon took him with him, turned and walked towards the gate of the manor.

According to the etiquette of the visit, they had to say goodbye to the master first when they left, but Li Cang was so popular in the noble circle that he was still surrounded by a group of people, so he was only sent off by his housekeeper.

That's fine, lest Li Cang find out the problem.

Through the conversation between the two madmen who were awakened under the underground cave, this Li Cang was most likely the leader of the madness, the guy named Dominic.

He was able to slaughter the entire investigation bureau by himself.

There is no doubt about Dominic's strength. He doesn't know his ability yet, and Romon doesn't want to face the monster like this.

The two walked all the way from the garden to the gate.

The guards here didn't stop them, but Romon found that someone was staring at him in the dark, and he wasn't alone.

"Leave quickly, it's not safe here, it seems that Li Cang is going to do something to these nobles."

Romon reminded Barry, the other party's face changed, he immediately accelerated his pace, and the two disappeared on this street.

On the way, Barry still said leisurely: "Those nobles also have guards secretly. It is estimated that there will be a good show to watch, but I don't know who will win."

Romon didn't say much. After separating from him, he used the communication talisman he carried.

Psionic infuses this amulet of communication.

Then the amulet shattered into dots of light in the sky, floating around Romon, forming a somewhat vague pattern: "What happened?"

Bernice's voice came from the pattern.

Luo Meng said succinctly: "I found the headquarters of the Mad Society. It is in the Licang Manor in the southeastern suburbs of Windhelm City. There are a large number of Mad Society members here, and their leaders may also be here!"

The other side of the summoning talisman.

Bernice frowned slightly, "Are you sure the news is reliable?"

"Reliable, I just escaped from the manor, there is absolutely no problem." Romon emphasized.

Bernice immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll inform the other team members to come over immediately, you should be careful of your own safety."

It looks like Bernice is going to do it tonight.

Romon moved in his heart and walked in the direction of the big ship.

Anyway, let's go back to the boat.

Although I don't know what will happen in the manor, it is definitely not a wrong choice to go back to the boat and wait for all the team members to arrive.

On the dark streets, the light of the kerosene street lamps is dim, and there are very few pedestrians.

Windhelm doesn't look like it's in the middle of the sea.

Although there are a lot of people, it is not that prosperous.

Usually when this happens, no one is on the street.

Occasionally, a horse-drawn carriage hurried past, and only the voice of the driver could be heard.

Romon walked for a while and suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Not only was this street too quiet, but it was also too long. Romon estimated his speed, and he should have walked several streets by now.

Romon stopped under a kerosene street lamp to observe the surroundings.

A silence.

No trace of the enemy could be found, and there was no sign of mental perception, but Romon was sure that he had encountered the enemy.

Just when he hesitated, under the kerosene street lamp next to him, the shadow of the lamp began to wriggle, and groups of strange creatures grew out of it.
