All-Professional Master of Darkness - Chapter 374
c374 unexpected discovery
As soon as he entered the prison of hatred, Lan Wu saw several goat-headed men coming towards him. He was stunned when he saw the appearance of these goat-headed men.
These were indeed goat-headed men. The goat horns and the hairy goat heads on their heads were undoubtedly the original Moon Clan. But they were wearing wizard robes, and their hooves were no longer holding long-handled machetes, but a staff.
Goat-headed wizard… or Moon Clan wizard?
Lan Wu was stunned for a moment and came back to his senses. The other party obviously thought he was a member of the Zakarum Renaissance Society, and they all responded with a gentle smile. But that smile was a little creepy.
“Do it right away? No, wait and see for the time being.” Lan Wu immediately made this choice in just half a second. Since the demon thought he was a member of the Zakarum Renaissance Society, he might as well take this opportunity to find out the current situation here.
With the same kind smile, Lan Wu immediately bypassed the goat-headed wizards and walked quickly to the depths of the prison. The great changes in the world obviously did not affect Mephisto’s nest that had been operating for thousands of years. Following the route recorded on the magic map, he had a smooth journey and successfully arrived at the entrance of the second floor.
No one paid attention to him along the way. Even the people of the Zakarum Revival Society saw him and only thought he was a member of the organization. Some even warmly invited him to drink a cup together. But when he arrived at the entrance of the second floor, he was stopped by two demons.
“Human, this is not the place for you to come.”
One of the extremely large and fat demons blocked Lan Wu in a muffled voice. Lan Wu, who was about 1.7 meters tall, was like a primary school student in front of it. When he looked up, he could only see its fat chin.
“Sorry, I’ll leave right away.” Lan Wu apologized repeatedly and hurriedly retreated. When he retreated to the corner, he immediately activated the teleportation and teleported directly to the steps at the entrance the moment he turned around.
The two demons had been watching his movements. Seeing him disappear around the corner, they just thought that this reckless human had left, and they watched the nearby movements again with a covetous eye.
Lan Wu looked back at the two conscientious gatekeepers, smiled slightly, and then teleported out again. Soon he entered the second floor of the prison.
The atmosphere here was obviously much more depressing than above. Although there were also many people from the Zakarum Revival Society, everyone’s face was very nervous, as if they knew something big was about to happen.
“What big action are these guys planning?” Lan Wu was no longer as bold as he was on the first floor. He carefully hid behind a pile of wooden boxes and observed the surrounding movements through the gaps between the boxes.
Without waiting for Lan Wu to signal, Lan Ya and the other four ghosts took the initiative to disperse and look for information everywhere. And Lan Wu saw that they took the initiative to take the responsibility of investigation, so he didn’t rush to do it, and patiently observed the few people in his sight.
About an hour later, Lan Ya and the other four floated back again. The expressions on their faces were very solemn. Lan Wu couldn’t help but feel scared when he saw them. It looks like the demons and the Zakarum Renaissance are doing something big.
“They are studying angels.” Leah was the first to tell the information she had found out. This opening immediately made Lan Wu lose his mind for nearly half a minute.
“The demons are studying angels?” Lan Wu looked at Leah in disbelief. Hell and Heaven have been at war all the time. Do they still need to study their opponents after countless years of war? Are you sure the demons are not studying whether angels are better sliced and braised or steamed whole?
“The people of the Zakarum Renaissance are studying the ancient teleportation array.” Lan Ya then told what she had seen with her own eyes. Although she was only a paladin in her lifetime, she was not unfamiliar with magic arrays. The ancient teleportation array was the standard configuration of every town back then. As the princess of Tristram, how could she not see the structure of the ancient teleportation array.
Lan Wu was stunned again. It is understandable that the Zakarum Renaissance studied the soul, pursuing stronger power. But what is the purpose of studying the ancient teleportation array? Want to restore the grand occasion of the past, even if it is thousands of miles away, it can be reached in a blink of an eye?
“I found this.” Bruna suddenly took out a black crystal stone, looking very disappointed. In her opinion, Leah and the others had found out quite valuable information, but she had found out nothing. If it weren’t for the strange feeling that this crystal stone gave her that she couldn’t explain, she wouldn’t have found this crystal stone that was hidden very secretly.
Lan Wu took the crystal stone suspiciously and looked at it carefully. This crystal stone is prismatic, black and crystal, obviously not an ordinary item. It is a bit similar to the crystal ball that the dragon Tagore gave him.
“This… This is the dark soul stone.” Leah on the side suddenly screamed, scaring Lan Wu. Fortunately, he remembered that she was a ghost and only he could hear it.
“What is the dark soul stone?” Lan Wu looked up and down at the dark crystal stone curiously.
“The Soul Stone corroded by the dark magic.” Leah looked solemn, and took a big step back, pulling Lan Ya beside her.
Lan Wu shuddered when he heard the words, and almost dropped it. He was too familiar with the Soul Stone. Although he had never seen it, it was described in detail in the dark background. Something that can seal the devil, I just want to ask you if you are afraid.
Bruna was shocked. She never thought that a piece of crystal stone she stole would be such a terrible thing as the Soul Stone. That is something that can seal the devil, let alone seal a little ghost like her.
Only Afafu remained silent, frowning and pondering, as if she had not seen the Soul Stone. Suddenly she raised her head and said solemnly: “I think I understand. Do you know who I saw just now?”
Before Lan Wu and others took over, she asked and answered herself: “The Archangel Impalis, who represents courage. He was captured by the devil and is now locked in a cell. It seems to be sealed.”
Lan Wu was speechless. He probably guessed what the devil and the people of the Zakarum Revival Association were working on. Angels, ancient teleportation arrays, Soul Stones corroded by darkness, and Archangel Impalis… These pieces of information combined point to only one purpose.
The devil is planning to open a passage to heaven.
Angels have the unique light power of heaven. And the Soul Stone is also something that came from heaven. Combining the two, you can get the magic fluctuations that belong exclusively to heaven. By expanding the ancient teleportation array technology and extracting the great magic power of Impalis, a portal to heaven can be opened.
The only question is whether Mephisto is possessed by a demon or crazy. He is so cautious even when dealing with humans, how dare he provoke heaven, which is more powerful than humans?
Lan Wu pondered for a long time but couldn’t figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Since they are going to make a big fuss, why not release the archangel Impalis and join forces to make a fuss?
With the help of multiple archangels, it will surely be a headache for Mephisto and the Zakarum Revival Society.
