If the original, adventurous group just wanted to rob the auction house, the two had entered a state of life and death after the death of four members.
Driving to Youke Xin City, before entering Youke Xin, Su Xiao saw the checkpoint set up at the edge of the town, which was the work of the ten old men.
Several gang members with guns stood in front of the car.
"Get off..."
Just as an ordinary gang member shouted angrily, a small leader beside him kicked him in the butt.
"Let them pass, quick."
The small gang leader nodded and bowed as the car drove by.
The ordinary gang member kicked was a little depressed, but he did not dare to say anything.
"Next time, look at the license plate before you stop the car. If you want to die, I don't want to die."
...
The car slowly entered Youke Xin City. Su Xiao did not go to find the ten old men but found a hotel in a remote city area.
He opened two rooms, threw Black Mary on the bed of a room, and left. Su Xiao took a bath in another room and sat on the bed.
He took out the apostle's eye and set it in an automatic alert state.
[Equipment Effect 3: Air Guard(Active): The apostle's eye floats in the air or the sky, examining the area within half a kilometer. The apostle's vision will warn if any suspicious creature enters this area. ]
[Note: The air guard(active) consumes 120 points of mana each time. The effect lasts for 12 hours. ]
[Note: The air guard(active) can detect invisibility, perception shielding, underground stealth, magic energy shielding, and other eighty-two hidden abilities.
Hint: The air guard(active) cooldown time is 24 hours.
...
Su Xiao lay on the bed. Although his injury was completely recovered, his mana values were almost exhausted, and his physical consumption was also massive. Although he had injected [adrenaline] to remove the exhaustion state, the fatigue of his body had to be recovered by sleep.
After a moment, Su Xiao fell asleep. Dragon flash was placed on the bedside. He was ready to enter the battle state at any time.
When Su Xiao recovered his strength through sleep, outside of Youke Xin City, in a hidden mountain cave, the cave area was huge, and the traces of chiseling were evident. It should have been newly chiseled in the past few days.
"We believe in the holy fire, and we are the people of God..."
A man wearing a white robe, with only one arm left, sat in a wheelchair. The man spoke with a red light hole on his body and a dark red flame burned in his hand.
At this time, hundreds of people were kneeling in the cave. Most of these people were civilians, merchants, craftsmen, and others.
The hundred or so people had fanatical expressions on their faces. When they looked at the one-armed man, their eyes were filled with reverence. The other party was the messenger of God. They had all personally witnessed a miracle. It was not their ability to read but a true miracle.
The atmosphere in the cave was both passionate and crazy. With the one-armed man's impassioned speech, the flames on his body surged, and a vast shadow formed behind the man.
The appearance of the shadow caused the believers in the cave to cry out in alarm, and everyone lowered their heads.
The fiery red shadow looked at the believers below. The shadow wore a crown that was like a bull's horn. Lava was its body, and lava was its blood.
This 'god' was the ninth Demon Envoy. He was once a big shot in the Black Abyss of the Void. His name was Alfred Lancelot, Wyklov. Because of this extremely long name, most people called him the Purgatory Count.
At this time, the Purgatory Count yawned, his eyes somewhat helpless. He communicated with the one-armed man through his mind.
"Clown, I don't need believers."
The Purgatory Count snorted. The word 'believer' reminded the Purgatory Count of some bad memories. For example, the believer stole their weapon after a rebellion. In the end, it was hung up by another Black Abyss Lord and picked up. He even threw it under the barbecue rack and used its heat to roast meat...
"Brother Count, don't care about these details."
The red clown chuckled. He already understood the general situation of this Demon God. He chose to summon the other party precisely because of this. The other party's mind needed to be more flexible.
"Don't call me brother Count. I'm many levels higher than you. It's amazing to have a backer. I..."
"Okay, brother Count."
"You..."
The Purgatory Count spat out a mouthful of hot smoke. Although the red clown summoned it, it could not force the other party to sign an unequal treaty. The red clown had a high enough contract to scare the Purgatory Count. Although this contract was precarious, it would disappear at any time.
"Count brother, how about that matter?"
The red clown always had a smile, whether cut off by Su Xiao or facing a desperate situation.
"Nothing much. They are the inheritors of a bunch of lunatics. I advise you to stay away from them."
"Lunatics?"
"A bunch of lunatics not of our race must be exterminated. To those fellows, other than humans of the same race or a few allies, they are all enemies. However, those fellows look down on mages of any race."
"Oh? They are solid?"
"Not very strong. They are powerful. They created the glory of the human race in the void. The strange thing is that they never called themselves kings and did not interfere with the internal affairs of the human race. Later, they were attacked by a group of mages and foreign races. In the end, they were destroyed. After that, the human race began to decline, no longer active in the void."
The Purgatory Count seemed to think of a terrifying enemy. He had light blue eyes and a long saber in his hand. He stepped on his head and said, "Next time, if you dare to behave atrociously in our territory, I will chop off your head. No one believes in God. We only believe in ourselves."
"So, you are afraid?"
"I will be afraid? Bullshit! Who am I? I only occasionally..."
The heat waves in the cave surged, and the bottom of the dead volcano began to become active.
"Since you are not afraid, let's begin. The teleportation array is almost complete. I have tested it before, and it can summon creatures from that place. Although the creatures summoned are not very obedient, it is related to the individual being too strong. We choose the weaker ones this time, but there are many creatures."
The red clown looked at a large magic circle in the cave. Although he only had one hand left, it did not affect his revenge on someone.
...
The following day, at six o'clock, two hundred kilometers away from Youke Xin.
This was an old and worn church. Initially, there was a small town here. The natural disaster caused this small town to be abandoned. Over time, all the buildings collapsed, leaving only this church that was still intact.
At this time, a few people were in the Abandoned Church Hall. They were all members of the adventurous group except the captain of the adventurous group. They were seven people: Fenkes, Franklin, Parker Big, Mazo, Tuff, Kubi, and Hisoka.
Other than Caesar, everyone's faces could have been better. Maqi was even more tired, and there was a faint smell of blood on his body.
"In other words, other than the captain, the rest of the members who have not arrived are all dead?"
Fenkes said. His prestige in the adventurous group was very high. After the captain was kidnapped in the original work, most of the things were decided by him, which showed his status in the adventurous group.
