62. Hypothesis (follow-up reading
Sitting on the couch in the living room was an old man with gray hair, Hobart. He was wearing a casual black suit, and his right hand was tightly holding an unusual "crutch" with strange dark red symbols all over it.
"You are here." He glanced at Ma En and Hu Weifeng standing at the entrance and said in a low voice, "I didn't expect anyone to be interested in my knowledge. Would you like some tea?"
He pointed to the two exquisite porcelain cups prepared on the table in front of him.
Hu Weifeng nodded slightly to him, took the lead and walked to the sofa opposite him and sat down:
"Thank you, but no need."
Marn also sat down immediately, observing the gentle old man opposite. Hobart was born in the Western Federation, and his "work" before retirement was also done there, so he has no enemies or friends here - both of them.
All dangerous for retired hell worshipers.
Hobart did not force them to drink the black tea mixed with chronic poison. He put the porcelain cup out just out of respect for the work and did not really expect them to drink it.
If there was no such mission, he would actually be quite happy to do this kind of thing of exchanging knowledge with his juniors, but since they paid, it wouldn't be difficult to do some work for the politicians who protect him.
And if he rejects them, Hobart will offend not only the politicians who provided him with asylum, but also his former colleagues, and he knows very well what kind of bastards his colleagues are.
After all, he used to be one of them.
Hobart looked at them and asked:
"What do you want to do with me?"
No matter what he said, the two employees of the Coordination Bureau could not take the knowledge out, so he planned to fully meet their requirements and let them be buried together with the knowledge.
It's a happy way to die.
Hu Weifeng asked:
"We would like to ask you to help us figure out what these hell believers are doing, which demon they are summoning, and how we can stop it. Don't worry, after you finish speaking, Ma En will delete this memory to prevent those believers from being able to
find you."
They are upstairs now.
Hobart said:
"Actually, I can guess what they want to do without even looking at it. There are both devils and devil believers among the participants, right? To be honest, we are usually at odds with each other, and a ritual that allows us to join forces, plus
From the various phenomena I have observed these days, I can tell you with certainty...
"They are building the gates of hell."
But in fact, this answer was just asked by Hobart, after all, the instigator is here.
Hu Weifeng asked:
"Door of hell?"
Hobart explained:
"Have you ever seen the ritual of summoning demons and demons? The gate of hell is a special type. Compared with the summoning ritual, it is more accurately described as a passage.
"Once the Gate of Hell is built, it can briefly connect hell and reality. Whether it is a devil or a devil, incarnation or body, they can come to the mortal world through the Gate of Hell. According to my speculation, what they want to create is a level IV
channel.
"But there will not only be one or two great demon incarnations that come to reality. After all, this is the masterpiece of the five secret sects, so there will be at least five or more IV-level incarnations. And if they are the incarnations of high-level demons, they will also
It will be slightly stronger than other level IV.
"Of course, if your director can come and make a trip, he will definitely scare them all back to hell."
Finally, he even teased Qin Luan.
Hu Weifeng said:
"Can you help us find the specific location of those hell believers? We can provide you with..."
Before he could finish speaking, Hobart shook his head:
"I have retired. Do you understand the significance of this matter? In fact, the retirement of believers in hell refers to no longer committing any criminal acts, but it does not mean that we have no faith.
"We believe in a special great devil, you call him a hermit, and his teachings advocate that we should not be involved in worldly disputes. If I help you, I will break the teachings I follow."
The existence of this doctrine is true, but its followers who worship the Hermits do not regard it as truth.
He is now helping those devil believers to deal with Ma En and Hu Weifeng.
Ma En said before Hu Weifeng could speak:
"Then can you give us the knowledge on how to find the Gate of Hell?"
Hobart pondered:
"Perhaps, but this is quite complicated knowledge and requires more than ten years of study to master. You two alone will definitely not be able to learn it."
Ma En asked curiously:
"Are you sure it's just the two of us here?"
Hobart smiled and said:
"Of course, I have a strong spiritual sense, which is why I switched to the Hermitage fifteen years ago. And what do you think this room is? This is a powerful magic ritual I have created over the years. If you don't follow the instructions
If my conditions were met, I would have sensed it long ago."
Yes, he also made requirements such as not being allowed to bring eavesdropping equipment. The purpose was to keep what happened in the house inside, so that no matter what happened, it could not be spread out.
Huang Qingfeng promised that he could continue to live as usual after Ma En and Hu Weifeng were taken away.
"Very good." Ma En looked at Hu Weifeng, "I want to ask something more personal, which may take up some time, is that okay?"
Hu Weifeng was stunned for a moment.
If Ma En wanted to ask something, why didn't he say it in advance?
But he had no doubts about it:
"Of course, as long as it doesn't delay the business."
Hobart smiled and said:
"If your colleagues have no objections, of course I'm happy to answer young people's questions, just ask them."
He was also waiting for several devil believers upstairs to prepare their ritual.
Ma En nodded:
"I want to know what is going on with angels, as well as the devils you worship and their relationship with them?"
Hu Weifeng looked at Ma En in surprise. He didn't expect that the other party would ask such a thing. It didn't seem like a question just out of curiosity.
Hobart was also stunned for a moment.
"I didn't expect that young people would still care about this matter." Hobart narrowed his eyes and said, "Have you seen them?"
Ma En nodded:
"That's right."
Hobart looked like this:
"When I was young, I used to think that I was the villain in the movie, a villain who made mortals afraid. This is why I worshiped the devil so crazily, because it made me feel that I was full of evil power.
"But after learning the truth, I chose to join the Hermitage, because at that time I realized that I was not really a bad person at all, and that my past life and pursuits were meaningless.
"Do you think it's ridiculous? What we are fighting is an existence that is far more evil and terrifying than any hell demon.
"The so-called angels have a special invisibility spell on their bodies. As long as mortals who meet the standard can see them, guess what the standard is?"
Ma En narrowed his eyes and asked:
"Can souls burn?"
Hobart smiled at Marne, but felt a little regretful.
"Yes, this is what they are doing, hunting mortals to feed the flames of heaven to continue burning. You are really lucky to survive after seeing them."
But unfortunately his luck has deserted him.
Ma En was about to ask the most important question:
"What if..."
But at this moment, Hobart suddenly interrupted him:
"I really hope this conversation doesn't take place in this context, but at the end of the day, ha, I'm still a devil believer, sorry to you two, and they paid..."
He smiled the evil smile he used to wear when he was young.
