Chapter 325: Key information

Chapter 325 Key Intelligence
In the last lucid moments of his life, Belazov saw the figure standing at the edge of the wreckage.

The tall, thin and slightly pale face of the other party was reflected in his pupils, and together with it, the pitch-black chains floating in mid-air, as well as the spectral demon at the end of the chains, the “Smoke Jellyfish”, also came into sight.

After a brief moment of dismay, Belazov finally recalled a scene – he recalled the figure, he recalled the scenes that had always been shielded from his consciousness, he remembered that when he stepped onto the Dagger Island, this tall, thin heretic stood on the shore, and when he entered the “chamber”, he remembered that the other person was standing on the shore, and when he entered the “chamber”, the other person entered the “chamber”. When he entered the “chamber,” the other walked beside him, and when he returned to the Sea Petrel, the other stood in the cabin. ……

Belazov’s eyes widened, the burnt skin on his face seemed to be making a cracking sound, he wanted to rebuke angrily, he wanted to open his mouth, but he could only let out a low hissing sound from his chest, and at the same time, that tall and thin figure with the pale face finally lowered his head, looking down on the general who was already dying.

“I admit that I was negligent,” the tall, thin, pale man said faintly, with scarcely a fluctuation of feeling in his tone, as if he were not speaking to a human being, but to a piece of decaying wood, “when you were walking about the ship, I only thought that you were checking the condition of the various posts –General Belazov, it must be admitted that your acting was good.”

Belazov just stared the other man dead in the face, anger boiling in his chest but no longer able to drive the once robust body.

“What a shame, you were almost about to become a ‘messenger’,” the tall, thin man shook his head regretfully, “bringing the glory of the Holy Lord to the city-state, rescuing mortals afflicted by the filth that stalks them from their shells, and allowing the first piece of Land of Delight descend upon this tainted and twisted ‘reality’, such a glorious opportunity, and you have wasted it …… just short of that final bit of travel.”

“Heretic …… end ……” Belazov finally squeezed a little sound out of his chest, his teeth and bones creaking in friction, “You guys …… will never get their hands on ……”

“Save your strength, General,” the tall, thin man took a step forward and looked down at the dying man lying in the center of the wreckage, “Accept your death in peace, and the Blessing of the Holy Lord will bring your wretched body back to life-you have squandered the opportunity to become a messenger, but the forgiving Holy Lord still won’t abandon your suffering soul ……”

Accompanied by this whisper that seemed to have the power of compulsion, the tall and thin man slowly stretched out his right hand forward, and the sooty jellyfish floating behind him also rose, wriggled, and gradually released a red glow that became more and more obvious from that veil-like body, and Belazov’s gradually darkening pupils reflected this blood-colored glow, while his body gradually sank into coldness – -His consciousness seemed to have completely dissipated, no longer producing the slightest reaction to the outside world.

“More work,” the tall, thin man shook his head, some emotion finally fluctuating in his tone, “Damn, if it wasn’t for that queen …… pfft.”

A slimy, eerie writhing, slithering sound rang out, and the seawater surging around the wreckage began to bubble up in an abnormal black foam, and in the foam, a strange substance that seemed like mud gradually rose up and spread a little bit in the direction of Belazov’s remains.

However, just a second before those mud-like substances were about to touch the body, they stopped abruptly.

Even the surging seawater around them seemed to be frozen into stagnation.

The tall and thin man looked at this scene with dismay, and subconsciously communicated with the “Smoke Jellyfish” again, trying to utilize the power of the Profound Magic Spell to complete the next ritual, but in the next second, he saw that the General, who had already been unresponsive, suddenly made a slight movement.

“Your life force is really tenacious,” the tall and thin man couldn’t help but frown, “Isn’t it good to accept your fate calmly, General Duncan?”

“No good,” the lanky body lying in the center of the wreckage, covered in almost charred charcoal, opened its eyes again and gazed calmly at the Annihilationist, who was symbiotic with the Psi-Devil, “Go on, ‘if it isn’t that Queen.’ What’s after that?”

The tall, thin man blinked.

Something wasn’t right!
He didn’t know what was happening, but at that very moment, all his instincts suddenly jumped violently, and a terrible sense of crisis soaked through his mind as if it were overflowing from his soul, and he stared dead at the body that had reopened its eyes, and instinctively tried to back away, only to find that his legs refused to carry out that order for a moment!
And then, the tall, thin man finally noticed a strange change in General Duncan’s body – his breathing was steady and strong, his voice was low and calm, his eyes were filled with vitality, and it was as if this man, who had been dying moments before, had regained all of his vitality at this moment!
The general even sat up!

“‘If not that queen,’ what follows?” Duncan slowly got up, the lanky height of this body allowed him to even look down on the cultist across from him, he stared into the other man’s eyes, his tone serious and calm, “The queen you speak of, you refer to the Queen of the Frost, ‘Rae Nora’?”

While speaking, his gaze was placed behind the cultist, looking at the sooty jellyfish that was floating in mid-air.

That jellyfish was already starting to react.

The demon could sense things that mortals couldn’t, and even though the soot didn’t even have five senses, it could obviously “see” the truth inside the burnt body, and now it was trembling, the trembling was getting stronger and stronger, and wisps of black shadows had already escaped from the edge of it, prying the passageway between the deep sea and the real world a little bit. The passage between the deep sea and the real world.

Duncan couldn’t help but sigh a little in his heart: if there wasn’t this Profound Demon, it would actually be easier for him to continue pretending to be a dying general to get some information.

“Who are you?!” That Annihilationist of course also reacted, the drastic sense of dissonance as well as the danger signals that the Symbiotic Demon kept sending over were enough to make him realize the seriousness of the matter, even if he couldn’t figure out what exactly had happened, he could be sure that the soul in this shell in front of him wasn’t the original soul nowadays, “If it’s just a passing by then I don’t intend to have a conflict with you ……”

“Starting to get polite?” Duncan raised an eyebrow, thinking that the cultist in front of him was rather more spiritual than the two he had seen in the graveyard, “Then why don’t you tell me what you and your compatriots are up to, and how what you are up to has anything to do with the ‘Queen of Frost’?” As he spoke, he suddenly looked up at the sooty jellyfish floating in mid-air, “No escape.”

The sooty jellyfish suddenly trembled violently, and the black cracks that spread out around it scattered and broke apart in the blink of an eye, emitting ear-piercing tearing sounds.

The profound demon was chaotic and unintelligent, but driven by instinct, it seemed to be able to “understand the advice”.

The tall and thin man realized that his symbiotic demon had just tried to open the profound passage, and a belated fear clutched his mind, but he had no time to communicate with his symbiotic demon at this moment – because the “outsider” who had taken over the general’s body was casting a calm but gentle look at him. The “outsider” who had taken over the general’s body was casting a calm but icy gaze.

“I …… am just nobody,” he looked up into Duncan’s eyes, a smile seemingly trying to be squeezed out of his face, “I don’t know the full extent of the plan, you… …”

“So who knows the full plan?” Duncan’s face was expressionless, “And where are they hiding?”

“My compatriots …… they ……” the tall, thin man spread his hands, a smirk squeezing out of his face, “They will be honored by me –“

Duncan suddenly frowned, and then before he could react, a violent surge of energy suddenly came from within the cultist’s body, and in the next second, his entire body swelled violently as if inflated, instantly bursting into a ball of fire!
Duncan only had time to raise his hand, the green flame turned into a curtain, blocking and transforming the oncoming fire and impact, and wait until the explosion dissipated, the surrounding sea gradually returned to calm, the cultist had long since gone up in smoke.

Only a cloud of black smoke was left behind in the mid-air–that was the smoke jellyfish that quickly disintegrated and disappeared after losing the symbiotic medium.

Duncan stared dumbfounded at this scene for a long time before he reacted, but he could only look at the bits of debris floating near the wreckage with a sigh, “These cultists are still really just …… hey, the brain has no pits and is not so bad as to believe in a cult.”

While saying this, he shook his head.

The cultists have been blown to pieces, and then regret is of no use, but although not from the other side of the mouth to get more clues, his own “possessed” over has also got a lot of useful information.

The most useful of these information was undoubtedly the other party’s last mention of the “Queen”.

It sounds like the Frost Queen …… who died in a rebellion half a century ago caused great trouble to one of those cultists’ actions? This kind of trouble has continued to this day, so that they have to make a lot of effort when they are in action?

Duncan raised a hand to rub his chin and lifted his gaze thoughtfully.

The night was deep, and the pale light of the World’s Creation faintly illuminated the sea in the distance, and at the end of the waters, the lights of the city-state’s shores could be seen.

The dagger island was unknown in what direction, but it was clearly not far from Frostbourne.

Let’s just use this body to go to Frost – it’s a bit miserable on the outside, but at least it won’t melt away on its own as it did with the previous one while walking.

Duncan exhaled and walked towards the edge of the wreckage, while calling out to Aye in his mind, ready for it to take him to the coast not far away.

The next second, however, his movements came to a sudden halt.

He lowered his head in some surprise.

This body …… refused to obey the order.
