quicksilver blood

Chapter 82 Tilance Dam
"The path to inevitable destruction is unpredictable, for the nature of the twilight never rests in its appeal."

A deep, hoarse voice echoed in the bedroom of the ruler of Ribblade.

This bedroom, which is enough to be described with horrible colors, is filled with a kind of crazy beauty that is almost artistic.A total of seventeen decomposed corpses were dressed in ill-fitting children's clothes, with stiff smiles on their faces, and their joints were loose like broken dolls, scattered around the room.

Perhaps because of this reason, even though it was only dusk, the undead ruler had already drawn all the heavy curtains in the entire room.

And in the very center of the entire room, a simple magic circle outlined by blood flashed a steady signal, and a child firmly placed in the center of the magic circle stretched out many tentacles from its eyeballs. It forms a mouth shape in the air, opening and closing to say something.

"Master, please forgive me."

If an outsider sees this scene, he will definitely show a shocked expression.The undead occupying an area in the city of wealth is kneeling in front of the mouth made of tentacles like a pious believer at this moment, not even daring to look up, just prostrate respectfully on the ground like this.

"There are fools around me, and I don't know how to reveal the end of the world to them...Master, please tell me, should I use a gentler way or..."

"You shouldn't hesitate on this matter, Kasa," the twisted lips emerging from the tentacles slightly pursed, showing an unhappy angle, "Although the omniscient N'Zoth gave us an explanation, we still It is our duty to explain the inevitable doomsday from a more desperate perspective, because this world has never had any hope, and it is our greatest glory to wake up the foolish people from their dreams."

"……Yes."

The undead known as Kasa hesitated: "But master, are we really going to release those walking corpses? They will definitely destroy the city of wealth."

"On the contrary, with the help of the Tree of Passion, these walking corpses will restore order in the City of Fortune."

The deep and hoarse voice gradually softened: "With your help in the past, our Truth Society has driven Farina away. Now, there is no druid in this city who can stop this ceremony."

"Kasa, the truth will need you now."

The hoarse voice was as gentle as an elder, full of encouragement.

"...Let me think about it."

Kasa nodded heavily, and interrupted the ceremony with his hand.

He just knelt alone in the narrow and monotonous bedroom like a torture room, silent for a long time.

Then he decided to start praying.

— Pray for those about to be killed by him.

But just as his eulogy was in the second stanza, there was a sudden knock on the door in the empty room.

No, it would be too frivolous to call it a knock—it was just a collision.

It was the sound of a fleshy body banging heavily on the thin iron door.It's like someone is choking someone and banging him on the door repeatedly.

But after a closer look, it seems that it is not...

Casa opened his eyes, frowned and looked towards a corner of his room.

There is the secret door he set up.You can reach the sewer through this secret door. He usually sneaks into the sewer through this secret door to bury the spine dwellers for the walking corpses.

Although the bloody and filthy blood squeezed out of the spine-dwellers grown from the spinal cords of walking corpses is totally unusable, but fortunately, the appearance of these spine-dwellers is no different from ordinary spine-dwellers, at least they can be sold smoothly go.

And what Casa does is a one-shot deal.Anyone who dared to ask him for compensation was thrown into the sewer to raise ridge dwellers.

This secret passage is the most important capital of Casa here. No matter how badly his capital on the bright side is defeated, as long as this secret passage is not discovered, he can retreat and make a comeback.Under the necessary vigilance, he didn't even mention a word to his closest subordinates.

Therefore, the guards should never be called.

Casa frowned, took out a delicate gemstone necklace from his pocket, wrapped it around his right wrist, and then carefully opened the secret door.

But beyond his expectations.Behind the secret door is not a drunk bum or an assassin with a poisoned dagger, but a half-rotten corpse with a blank paper taped to its forehead.

"..."

Casa's first feeling was that he was being teased.

But when he saw the texture of the white paper clearly, his expression immediately became serious.In order to prevent the roar of the walking corpse from attracting the guards, Kasa first stretched out his hand and grabbed the walking corpse's neck, sucking out the negative energy that supported its actions.

After blessing himself with the magic spell of immunity to poison and curse, Kasa reached out and took off the note on the forehead of the walking corpse.

Then he was immediately shocked by the first sentence on the note——

"I won't be too polite here, dear Mr. Casa. You can call me Orlando. Maybe you don't know me, but you just need to know that the explosion in the city of fortune is caused by me."

"So, do you know me now?"

... Is this man a lunatic?

But where did he get my name?
Casa frowned, and then looked down: "What I want is very simple, as long as you, Mr. Casa, open the Tirance Dam. Yes - I know that the key is in your hands. You needn't be nervous, I'm the only one who knows about it, and I won't reveal the name of a close ally."

"Although I think that some kind of friendly and intimate conversation is needed between us... But out of some superfluous apprehension, let me explain everything for the time being."

"—To put it simply, if you don't do what I say, from now on, I will detonate a building next to you every 1 minute. You have about 3 minutes to think about it. If after 3 minutes I haven't heard the news of the opening of the Tirance Dam, and those lovely big guys will regret to let you see the Supreme Truth in advance-"

The handwriting on the note became more and more scribbled towards the back, and the last stroke even scratched the paper and dragged it out of the note.

Casa's face was ugly, and the hands holding the note trembled.

Absolutely crazy.

"This man is absolutely crazy..."

Casa kept repeating this sentence, froze in place, not knowing what to do.The sudden change confuses his mind.

At this moment, a loud roar caused the ground under Kasa's feet to shake violently, and the corpses in his room in children's clothes rolled irregularly on the ground, dropping some parts from time to time.

Unlike the previous explosions on Broken Throat Avenue, these two recent explosions are getting closer and closer to where they are.Until this time, Kasa finally felt the power of the explosion.

Finally, Casa realized personally that that lunatic could really speak and do something.

"Tillans Dam...?"

For the first time, Casa began to think about the feasibility of this proposal.
