Chapter 527 The Newcomer on the Sacred Tree
【Cancer Palace-Upper Area】

This place does not have the obvious division of layers and the human street-like structure like other areas of the Cancer Palace.

The entire upper area is no longer restricted by rules and regulations,

The "architectural cells" here are undergoing random differentiation, forming a messy branch like nerve cells intertwined together, also like a giant tree of flesh and blood with luxuriant branches.

Therefore, the upper area has another name.

"Sacred Tree of Cancer"

This is the residence of the Tumor Knights and nobles.

Ms. Olena owns real estate here as a super noble, but she doesn't like living here, she moved away long ago, the reason is very simple...too noisy.

Tumor knights with "winged back tumors" can be freely transferred to different tree trunks. Due to their natural aggressive characteristics, tumor knights may challenge each other once they meet.

Even if you are seriously injured in the challenge, you can quickly recover by touching the branches of the sacred tree and sucking the original cancer.

Moreover, duels in the sacred tree will be counted as 'records'.

The cancer palace, which advocates struggle, also has a ranking list inside, and knights ranked in different sections enjoy different treatment.

Recently, a paranoid and even crazy rookie knight appeared in the sacred tree area. He didn't consider his own state, whether he was suitable, or even the opponent's strength, and challenged anyone he saw.

Such a reckless duel is doomed to a poor record for this rookie,
In her nearly 7 challenges, she only won 3 games and [-] draws, and the rest were all losses.

The knight armor on her body is also quite special,
The use of softened metal sheets with a small number makes the overall armor look slender and soft and adheres to the body. It is more like a combat suit than an armor.

The meat skirt structure is shortened to the shortest,
The helmet decorated with double feathers covers the whole face, leaving only breathing holes in the lower jaw.
Today, she is also the same as usual, jumping on the branches of the holy tree with her flesh alone without using wings, searching for any knight who can challenge.

Those tumor knights walking around the holy tree block will avoid this newcomer once they notice the aura of this newcomer.
The reason is simple, the opponent's record is very poor, almost at the bottom of the Knights, defeating it will not bring much improvement in ranking.

Moreover, this rookie's ability is very troublesome, like a xiaoqiang who can't be beaten to death, even if he can win in the end, he will inevitably pay a high price, and it will be a waste of time.

Just when the rookie locked on a target and challenged him with a big jump,

hum!A pressure suddenly dropped, causing her to stagger and almost fall from the branch.

A strange figure flashed directly in front of her with almost no gap,

The person who came was not equipped with armor, but a woman wrapped in a deep red dress with flowers blooming on her head, also known as [Queen's Messenger].

He is directly subordinate to the Supreme Ruler of the Cancer Palace, and is responsible for the supervision and communication of the Holy Tree District. Even a tumor knight must be honest when he sees this person.

"Jin Almeida, there is one thing I need to confirm with you, whether you recognize this person."

The courier unfolds her long dress for conveying orders and messages, and inside the long skirt emerges an image of a young man with a pocket acupuncture mask and a cloak covering his body, holding an ax in one hand and a gun in the other.

Although the image has changed a lot, the ax is also a new weapon, but Jin can recognize it at a glance.

"William! Has he done anything?"

The messenger did not respond to Jin's question, but said to himself: "William Behrens... His name appeared on the registry of the Cancer Palace. He once won the championship with you in the underground arena in the business district, and then left cancer palace.

Thank you for the information you provided. "

The courier wrapped himself back in his robe, and his body sank like a liquid among the tree trunks.

At this moment, Jin completely lost the idea of ​​continuing to find someone to do things, and left the sacred tree area as quickly as possible to find Ms. Olena's mansion.

"Master!"

As soon as Jin yelled out, the cat's paw landed on her shoulder.Before she could ask a question, Ms. Olena said in advance:

"A big event happened yesterday. A team of Zuntum Knights who went to Watertum City to deal with unknown events encountered [Circus of Fear]."

"Circus? I know this." Jin once dealt with nightmare incidents in Zion.

"Due to failing to make an evacuation judgment in time, the team leader Mammoth Yuno was killed, and the other two fled back to the Cancer Palace.

Strangely, one of the escaped members was unhurt...because the circus member she encountered was none other than William. "

"What!? William joined the circus."

"A messenger came to you before, right? Who else is there for a young man who can express so many symptoms of illness in his appearance? Let alone know the two of us."

"Is the circus still there? I'm going there!"

"It has been withdrawn a long time ago, otherwise the lord would not have stood still...I didn't expect that boy William to be related to the circus, and he became a member of it, and even appeared with troublesome guys like Art.

I hope next time we meet, he won't change too much.If you are deeply influenced by Art, Kim, you must make a decision to sever ties with him. "

"Is it vicious... Hehe, maybe it will be more interesting after William gets infected."

"Kim, don't underestimate Art's [malignancy].

That clown is one of the best among the exiles of the cancer palace in the past, and no one is even comparable in terms of vicious transmission.

The cancer patients who had talked with Yate in the cancer palace all had more or less malignant changes in the follow-up, and some of them directly transformed into cancer patients and were forced to exile. "

"I know, master... I've been a little bored playing in the holy tree recently, once those knights perceive my aura, it's like seeing a ghost.

Why don't I take a long vacation to go out to practice, maybe I'm lucky enough to meet William and see how he's doing in person. "

"You are now a member of the Tumor Knights, so there is no need to report this kind of thing to me.

In addition, once you choose to join the circus, you will be cut off from the cancer palace, and you will even be marked as a "betrayer knight" and face permanent hostility. "

"Master, don't think about it, I just went out to experience it, I can't bear you, Master~"

With Kim gone, Ms. Olena returned to her cathouse in a few hops, and she actually had some details of the incident that she didn't tell Kim.

That is, William, who emerged from the circus, is still at the peak of open source and has not completed the path. In that state, he was able to fight a giant tumor knight and pretend to be in a state of falling into a valley.

……

[Black round train] temporarily stopped in an open space outside the maggot forest.

The highest-ranked flight attendant on this train is communicating with William, a special passenger,
Because the destination given by William was listed as a [restricted area] by the company not long ago, and it is not even allowed to approach it for a hundred kilometers around.

"We don't know why the specific company marked this area as a restricted area... If you want to know, I suggest you go to a neutral city closest to the restricted area, or go to the company headquarters to inquire about the specific situation."

"Then send me to the neutral city closest to the restricted area."

"Okay, let me confirm with you that we are about to go to [Rat City-Pestis (Pestis)]. This city is considered to be a small one among the neutral cities. There should be no problem with your abilities."
