Chapter 43 The trace of the black hand behind the scenes
"Sir, don't be impulsive. I think the two of us can communicate and the problem can be solved through dialogue, right?"
After Ceryl left, Karl immediately tried to communicate with this man, trying to delay as much time as possible.
"Conversation? Interesting."
The man in front of him smiled and seemed very interested in Karl's question.
"What does the little mouse who is good at digging holes want to explain to me?"
Very good!
What Karl was most worried about was that this guy would come up and start fighting without saying a word. He had little confidence in his own fighting ability. But now that this guy is willing to communicate with him, that would be great.
You should know that this kind of guy who likes to talk too much before a fight will probably fight as a villain.
This is a principle that works no matter which world it is placed in!
So Karl opened the door and asked, "What is the purpose of doing this?"
"My purpose? Isn't it obvious?"
The man in front of him looked as if he was taking it for granted.
"Of course it's to advance my holy talisman to the next stage. You don't even understand this?"
The first thing Karl noticed was the holy talisman mentioned in this man's mouth, but the talisman that Ceryl mentioned was not the same word.
But before he could think about it, the guy in front of him continued.
"Could it be that you don't know anything and are the lucky ones who came into contact with this world by chance?"
As he said this, the man looked at rare animals and seemed to be very interested in Karl.
"No." Karl didn't intend to follow the rhythm of his conversation.
"What I'm asking is why are you here at this time?"
"Huh?" the man asked strangely.
"Of course it's the right time. Why should I ask?"
This answer made Karl's heart hit rock bottom.
Because this question contained Karl's double temptation against him.
The first is the obvious question, which is simply asking him why he came at this time. At first glance, this is a very useless question.
But in fact, Karl was trying to test whether this guy's actions were of his own initiative, or if he was instigated by others.
If his answer is 'of course because you are here now' or 'because of so-and-so's order', it means that the behavior of the guy who is planning something behind the scenes is traceable and can be traced.
Pulled out directly.
But his answer showed that this man just chose the time to come here at random, which was very bad.
Not only was there no way to investigate the man behind the scenes, it also showed that the guy used a method that the man in front of him could not detect to control him to choose to come to the door at this time, which happened to block Karl.
"Ah."
Carl couldn't help but laugh when he thought about this. It turned out that the guy in front of him was just a poor guy who didn't know he was being controlled.
"why are you laughing?"
The man in front of him had a weird look on his face. He didn't understand the reason why Karl laughed like this. Is there something wrong with him at this time?
"Have you ever thought that your actions were controlled by someone to get here?"
Karl looked at the frowning man in front of him, and he didn't know what he had in mind to prompt him.
"Being manipulated?"
The man in front of him didn't understand what Karl said. How could he be manipulated?
Ever since he got this magic book and successfully made the holy talisman, he has mastered incredible power. How could he be controlled by others? This kid must be bluffing himself and trying to buy time!
So he smiled contemptuously at Karl.
"Do you think you can get away with talking nonsense like this?"
Seeing this confident face and arrogant tone, Karl knew that this person couldn't make sense.
"I have another question."
"Please continue, little mouse." The proud face still had the same expression, not caring at all about Karl's delaying time. "I will answer you kindly. Of course, this is also the last question."
"So, why did you choose this manor as your target? Aren't you afraid of the official people?" Karl thought for a moment and asked this question. Maybe he could find some clues from his answer.
"Good question!"
The man in front of him was obviously satisfied with this question. He nodded at Karl and then raised the magic book in his hand.
"See, this is the great book that belongs to me. As long as I follow the methods recorded in the book, I can step by step ascend to the throne of God. This is the position designated in this ceremony."
Karl clearly saw the familiar figure in black robes carved on the cover of the magic book he held up, which was exactly the same as the two magic books he had destroyed with his own hands before!
Sure enough, the real owner of this magic book should be the mastermind behind the scenes. The man in front of him was just deceived by the power and became a tool to achieve his goal!
This discovery confirmed Karl's conjecture, and he was excited. This was a new breakthrough.
While Karl was happy, the man in front of him continued his impassioned speech.
"Originally, if this place was a deserted wilderness, I would still have to find a way to find enough people to sacrifice alive. But even God is on my side, because of the old guy's death, there are actually people tonight
So many people gathered here!"
"As for the official people, they don't have time to get here."
At this point, he paused for a moment, and then looked at Karl with the eyes he would look at a slaughtered sow.
"And you, as my sacrifice on the road to becoming a true god, die for me with gratitude!"
After speaking, he opened the raised magic book and muttered something, obviously releasing some kind of attack spell!
Upon seeing this, Karl immediately summoned the [Decapitating Blade], carefully guarding the man in front of him, and prepared for attacks from him.
However, unlike what Karl thought, the attack did not come from his direction.
Almost at the same time that Karl raised the [Decapitation Blade], a large number of white bones grew under his feet and on the walls on both sides, turning into dense bone spurs and attacking him!
In an instant, what he saw out of the corner of his eye and the unnatural bulge under his feet told Karl how dangerous the position he was standing on was.
So he jumped forward decisively and escaped from this fatal position while his left arm was cut by a bone spur.
"The reaction is quite fast, but how many times can you dodge it?"
Watching Karl swooping away from the spell attack, the man in front of him continued to cast spells, and the battle between the two began!
When the conversation ended here, Cyril was not idle either.
After she came to this warehouse, she found the female body that Karl had expected in the closet.
This guy had a bone spur pierced his neck and collapsed in a large closet.
The clothes on the corpse showed no traces of being tampered with, so Seliel easily found the gems on her body.
Picking up the gem and throwing it into her mouth, the materials in Cyril's body began to combine and undergo wonderful changes under her control.
