Chapter 184 The entry point to explore the essence of Chaos City
"Give it to me?"
His eyes briefly focused on the bright red rose in the fox-tailed woman's hand.
Sensing this aura with a strong fire element, it also reveals the essence of the power of chaos. It is similar to the Lake of Fire where the Slaad White Toad is entrenched, but it happens to be stable in form, which is quite interesting.
Flame rose.
There was a half-smile in Isaac's eyes, but at the same time he did not hide his interest: "Which member of the slaad tribe is so kind?"
Slaadi!
Just by looking at this flame rose, you can grasp the person behind it!
A strange color flashed across Celeste's eyes.
If this guy hadn't known something a long time ago, he would have grasped what the Slaadi said just by looking at the Flame Rose...
That old pervert’s evaluation of him was absolutely true!
Seeing that the fox-tailed maid did not respond to this person, but instead looked at her for instructions, Celeste's face became solemn again: "His Highness asked you a question, and you should not answer it truthfully!"
The fox-tailed maid then nodded, looked towards Isaac again, answered cautiously, and asked for instructions: "It is Master Yudula of the Sla tribe. Your Highness, do you want to accept it?"
How could she not wink at being able to live in Chaos City? This person could be received personally by the boss and even addressed as "His Royal Highness". How could he be an ordinary person?
Not to mention, this rose was sent by Lord Yudula himself!
She had been holding up the rose in her hand and asking for instructions from Isaac. Seeing his thoughtful look, the fox-tailed woman turned her head again and looked at the bar occupied by the slaadi and any other guests.
, are all far away from that area.
Isaac's eyes were also turning that way.
Just meeting his gaze, a slaad in humanoid form with golden battle armor and a crimson cloak, looking absolutely heroic without looking at the head, was also looking this way!
This slaadi wears a long sword on his waist, and there is a ten-foot-long staff on the table with a ring-shaped top.
Seeing Isaac's gaze, her ferocious giant toad's face cracked its teeth slightly, revealing a ferocious smile.
"Something interesting!"
Faintly, Isaac could sense the meaning there.
This is, following him!
However, I would like to send this rose to express this meaning...
Is it related to this bar?
Or is it the Chaos City itself?
A deep groan passed by, and Isaac flicked his fingers, and the bouquet of flame roses flew from the fox-tailed woman's hand.
He took it casually, but without giving any response, he looked at the tiefling warlock again: "Let's continue!"
Celeste's expression was solemn at this time, rather solemn, but she didn't say anything immediately. She just nodded and led Isaac to the second floor of the bar.
It was secluded, almost avoiding any sight and sitting in a corner.
Then he finally spoke, with a deep warning in his voice: "Your Highness, those slaads are probably targeting you. The slaads here in Chaos City will take some actions every time they have a target. Maybe.
I want to say something to you, maybe discuss it with others, I am sending you this rose, I’m afraid it also means the same thing!”
The slaad here in Chaos City!
Isaac's eyes moved slightly. What the tiefling warlock said was not at the bar!
Therefore, the slaadi who settled in the Chaos City would behave differently from other places... Is it because of the absolute chaos and absolute neutrality of the Chaos Sea and the Outer Territory interfering with each other?
"Who is Udula?" He looked at the tiefling warlock indifferently.
Although this man's words, deeds, and look were warning him, but...
A sneer flashed through my heart!
Let's not talk about these guys with devil blood, where do they get any sympathy?
He just met this person for the first time!
"A powerful Slaad Gray Toad, especially one who can control the power of chaos! Master Ossus once said that this Slaad Death Toad is not far away from the advanced Slaad Death Toad!"
As Celeste said, there were some guesses in her eyes. She pondered for a moment before continuing: "However, although she is powerful, she has never welcomed outsiders, but dragons like you, Your Highness..."
Just as she was speaking, her eyes suddenly moved, as if she had thought of something, her voice paused, and she quickly said: "I know, it must be your suppression of chaos erosion and chaos distortion when your highness first came here. This should be
It touched something about her. Maybe, it wasn't just her.
Born from the sea of chaos, the slaadi are born with the instinct to destroy any order that restrains chaos.
Because of this, through my side, many of them even accepted employment from certain entities in the abyss and actively participated in the bloody battle against the hell side and against the order camp.
Your previous actions, and even your visit to those Githzerai, should be the reason why she, or they, truly regard you as a target!"
It has to be said that the tiefling warlock’s reasons are really on point!
It allows the slaad to choose a green dragon as its target without hesitation. If they didn't have a purpose, no matter how chaotic they were, they wouldn't be so manic!
However, although what is said is correct, it is hard to say whether there is anyone pushing for something!
Isaac nodded slightly, quite acknowledging the look on the other side, but for a moment he didn't think about whether this person, or the person behind him, was interfering.
A gray toad is not something he should be afraid of!
Even the two dead toads mentioned by Master Homan were just the same thing to him!
Without the advanced white toad, even the Slaad Death Toad named Quinter may have a life energy level no lower than that of the "Embrace of Chaos", but the essential difference is the difference!
At this time, he paid more attention to some things that were inadvertently brought out in the tiefling warlock's words, things that not even Master Homan mentioned!
Master Homan said that this is the only trading place in Chaos City.
But it didn't say that the deal here could even provide employment to the bloody battle!
In particular, he originally thought that this person should be more inclined to the hell side, but judging from her connection with the Abyss and the Slaad tribe...
"Don't just think that she is biased towards chaos! An evil race like tiefling is not easy to control!"
"On the contrary, the owner of the bronze war horse came here for this reason?"
His thoughts flashed for a moment, and Isaac raised his eyes slightly with a look of interest: "Madam, besides these slaadi, is there any other connection?"
"It all depends on what you want to do, Your Highness? What can you come up with?"
When it comes to transactions, when it comes to intermediaries, when it comes to our own business.
Celeste finally lost all the seriousness on her face, and there was a certain luster in her eyes: "Those who have connections with me.
Slaadi only do killing. If they go too far and kill their employers as well, it is normal for them. So generally speaking, I only recommend them to the abyss.
However, as long as the price is right, and it is not a matter of the upper plane, it will never be inferior to them, and it has more reliable power, there are still several options.
Baatezu can sign a contract!
Yugroth who can provide military service!
There are also some tanar'ri across the abyss who are willing to accept employment!
Even your highness, your five-color kin, as long as the price is right, they can also provide services across dimensions!
In addition, if there are just the right magic treasures, some absolutely powerful spellcasters may also consider it!
In contrast, in the upper plane, although there are some people who can accept employment, they will not be able to work on a large scale."
Isaac's eyes finally fluctuated slightly.
This person, of course, is not just a bar, there must be more networks behind it!
However, the people she contacted through the agency...
Maybe it is true as she said, it is indeed no worse than the slaad, and it is indeed more reliable!
But...it’s hard to say how reliable this level is!
Of course, although the reliability is questionable, if necessary, this may be an option based on something in the future!
If you want to take action over there, no matter how much power you use, no one will think it is too much!
Even this power may bring a lot of trouble!
After pondering for a moment, Isaac said: "After I leave here and discuss with some people, I may have to visit Madam again. On the other hand, outside of Chaos City, I don't know where else I can contact you directly?
"
After discussing it with some people?
Celeste's eyes couldn't help but flash. The Green Dragon himself couldn't be unilaterally absolute. He was afraid that he would have to hire a lot of power, and the "some people" who could discuss with him shouldn't be easy either!
This looks like a big business!
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the green dragon is bluffing. After all, this is the green dragon!
As for how to contact people outside Chaos City...
After thinking for a few times in her mind, Celeste took out a silver emblem coin from her waist, pushed it in front of the green dragon, and said seriously: "With this token, Your Highness can stay in Torch City and Rib Cage City.
, and Plague City, get in touch with some of my confidants.”
Torch City, this is the gate city to the Burning Hell!
Plague City leads to the bottomless abyss!
Rather, it is the Rib Cage City, the portal to hell...
Isaac picked up the coin and looked at it while his heart moved at the same time.
But he thought of something.
Before this trip started, Blackwoods mentioned that the reason why it was late was because it was invited by a big shot in the shadow world to meet with a plane merchant organization from Rib Cage City.
Attack launched!
That noodle merchant organization is also mainly composed of tieflings, and there is also a baatezu devil behind it!
It's just that...even the Bathetz devil was directly detained by the boss!
But afterwards, the gang did not break up and disperse, but they were trying to negotiate a peaceful settlement!
Look at this posture... If you don't know this, it has something to do with it, right?
It shouldn't be such a coincidence, right?
A hesitation arose in Isaac's heart, but was quickly suppressed.
The Outer Realm is infinitely large, and so is the lower plane. No one can be sure how powerful the tieflings are.
Maybe it's just a coincidence!
However, coincidence or not, he would not ask anything at this moment.
After looking at the emblem, there was nothing unusual except for the faint magical aura hidden in it, which seemed to be a pattern of a whip of thorns.
He even put away the emblem coin.
Seeing this, Celeste's eyes moved again, and she proactively inquired: "How will Your Highness deal with those slaads? Do you need to arrange some guards for you?"
"It's not necessary yet. But I still have a companion with me. Even if a few gray slaadi come, they won't be able to do anything to us."
"On the contrary..."
He looked at the tiefling warlock, paused, and said quickly: "Master Homan in the monastery said that in addition to being a trading place, the bar also provides hotel services. My companions and I may stay here.
Some time."
companion!
Celeste couldn't help but feel that someone who could become a companion of the green dragon would obviously not be a simple thing!
However, one came in and the other did not show up...
As soon as the thought flashed, she smiled and nodded, but she also had some reminders: "You two can check in at any time. However, I wonder if Master Homan has told you about the rules of the bar..."
Seeing that the other person was looking over but did not speak directly, she continued: "Chaos City has the essence of Chaos City, whether it is over there in Tallinn, or here in the bar, or in the Screaming Tower, or even Slaad and the others,
Although it can maintain a certain degree of stability, it must also obey its nature.
According to the rules of the bar, night is a time for having fun, and even slaadi would not cause trouble in the bar at night.
But when it's daytime, if they want to attack something, the bar will acquiesce to them and ask the guests to go outside to resolve the conflict with them..."
The essence of Chaos City!
Playing with the flame rose between his fingers, Isaac was thinking slightly in his heart.
so.
This is why the monastery does not accept guests!
Slaadi gives roses!
Is this the reason why bars also change day and night?
Fluctuating between absolute chaos and absolute neutrality, it is also a balance!
That's what I thought.
In his heart, Isaac suddenly moved again.
I don’t know if the tiefling warlock’s words were intentional or unintentional, but he did see a new angle from which he could try to interpret this infinite madness and chaos!
Although... Master Homan said, never explore the crazy nature of Chaos City!
"If we can uphold the neutral nature of the outer realm, we can form a certain balance with it!
But it’s only certain, after all, this is just the border of the outer domain, and it has received the strongest impact from the Sea of Chaos!”
"However, if we speculate based on the theory of the number of nine, the number of seventeen, and then the number of thirty-three, which is the essence of the outer plane... the final direction of evolution here may involve the destiny.
path of!
Even divinity or divine-like power is just the starting point of this path!"
Therefore, exploration is inevitable!
As for the slaadi, even the gray toad, or even the death toad...
"That being the case, there's no need to wait until tomorrow. Deal with them first and then have a leisurely chat with the lady!"
He is not in a hurry to drink anymore. After all, he has never been in the habit of drinking because he is focused on research.
After playing with the flame rose for a while, Isaac smiled lightly and simply stood up.
In the city of chaos, or even in any outer plane, the final comparison is whose fist is bigger and harder!
He walked directly down the spiral staircase, glanced at the golden armored Slaadi Gray Toad, and conveyed an idea.
He walked out of the bar slowly and quickly.
Then a ferocious sneer appeared on the face of the Sla Gray Toad.
Drink up the blood-like wine in the cup in one gulp.
Then he followed out with a staff in one hand, a long sword in the other, and several slaadi in the same humanoid form.
Behind them, Celeste, who was not in a hurry to show up, was inside a guardrail on the second floor. Looking at their leaving figures, a cold look flashed in her eyes.
