Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

Late at night, Hobert came out of the train station and walked two or three streets before hailing a taxi.

After trying just now, he found that if he just used the power of the "State of Disorder" to grab it, he would not be able to grab the little locomotive.

According to his estimation, the small locomotive should be slightly heavier than the water pump, so he used it for the experiment.

If you hold the "Black Emperor" card, the little locomotive can be caught a little, but only a little.

In the third experiment, Hobert held the "Black Emperor" card while twisting the weight of the small locomotive. He could already reach the "Gate of Sacrifice", but he couldn't get up the last few meters.

After these three experiments, Hobert believed that if he became Sequence 6, he would be able to complete this operation.

Looking at the foggy streets outside, Hobert decided to drink the "Corrupted Baron"'s potion as soon as he had completely digested the "briber's" potion.

After becoming Sequence 6, Hobert plans to try digesting the potion in Backlund first. If that doesn't work, he will go to the Southern Continent and find a territory to try acting with the help of the Balk family.

In addition, Hobert has used the "State of Disorder" to decompose the extraordinary characteristics of the "Corrupted Baron", and he does not intend to consume too much extraordinary characteristics.

The reason is simple. With the "Wood of Order" and "Stone of Loss of Control", his strength in the "Black Emperor" path is already very strong, and there is no need to take more extraordinary characteristics.

Taking too much extraordinary properties would place too much mental burden on him, and he would have to spend energy re-digesting the excess potions, which would be more than worth the loss.

…

Bayam, late at night, in a narrow alley.

Alger wore a hood and always held the crystal scepter in his pocket. He entered the depths of the alley on high alert.

"I heard you were looking for me?" A hoarse voice sounded in the darkness deep in the alley. It was Byron, the intelligence officer of "Admiral Hell".

"Yes, I have a piece of news to sell you." Alger said coldly.

"News? Have you reported it to your master?"

Alger sneered: "I believe that after hearing the news, you will immediately report it to your master, no, the master."

Byron in the darkness snorted: "Tell me about it."

"A ship loaded with gold, silver and gems secretly set sail from the Southern Continent."

"Be specific!"

Alger did not accept this trick: "It is said that the property on the ship is worth more than 200,000 pounds! Please tell me first what price you can give me."

"1,000 pounds!"

"Too little, I want 10% of your harvest."

Byron sneered: "Are you kidding me?"

"Are you kidding me?" Alger also sneered: "I have other channels to sell. Even if I report it to the Church of Storms, they won't just give me 1,000 pounds."

Byron snorted coldly: "Is the news accurate?"

"Absolutely accurate."

"You go to the bar in front for a drink first, and I'll give you an answer later."

Alger knew that the other party was going to report to "Admiral Hell", so he nodded and came to the bar.

Although it was already late at night, there were still many reveling pirates and villains in the bar. They were chatting loudly and their voices could be heard in the street next door. However, there are also many such bars in the street next door. Big sound.

These two bar streets seem to be more lively than the vegetable market.

Alger ordered a glass of fruit wine produced locally on Blue Mountain Island. After waiting for about half an hour, a young man dressed as a local politely invited Alger to return to the alley.

Byron was still hiding in the darkness, but his tone was much kinder: "Alger, you're just lucky. The captain is going to pay you 3,000 pounds."

Alger reluctantly said, "Well, just think of it as a favor. If it were someone else, I wouldn't sell this information at such a low price."

He noticed that two people were coming behind him.

Other than raising his guard, he didn't do anything drastic.

"I haven't seen you for a long time. How about I treat you to a meal? I've also booked your place. If you want a girl, just ask." Byron smiled and said, "But please don't leave the place I prepared for you." Room."

"I know the rules." Alger also smiled and said, "There's no need to explain it so clearly in such a disgusting tone."

The reason for placing Alger under house arrest was partly to prevent the news from being wrong, and partly to prevent this kid from selling the same news to others.

…

Thursday, Backlund, rue Blanca.

Hobert, who came back late at night yesterday, didn't get up until after eight o'clock in the morning.

After eating the breakfast left by Forsi, Hobert came to the "Country of Disorder" again and used his "real vision" to make sure that no one was following him.

Then he put on his windbreaker, picked up his cane, called a carriage, and went to the Loen Kingdom Army Staff Headquarters first. He told Christine that he knew a demigod with a good character and that he wanted to take him with him. The demigod went to explore the ruins.

Hobert completely trusted Christine, so he decided to say hello in advance.

As expected, Christine just told him to pay attention to safety. As for the ownership of the sealed artifact, he didn't even ask, leaving it entirely to Hobert.

Then Hobert found a taxi again and walked for more than an hour before arriving at No. 16 Wanbo Avenue in the Hilton District.

Wanbo Avenue is an avenue on the edge of the entire Backlund city. There are many self-built villas here. It is a neighborhood where rich people who are about to reach the stage of becoming rich but are still a little far away are concentrated.

However, No. 16 Wanbo Avenue is special. It can be seen from a long distance that this villa has been abandoned for a long time, and the vegetation has almost swallowed up the entire courtyard.

After a brief inquiry, Hobert learned that this villa is very evil. People who live in it are easy to die inexplicably. No one dared to live in it a long time ago. Some priests of the goddess of the night have also come to exorcise evil spirits, but still no one dares to buy it. here.

In other words, this is a haunted house!

Living here is very consistent with his status as a descendant of the God of Death.

As for the priests of the Night Goddess, they are probably the Nighthawks. Even if there is something evil inside, they have been dealt with before.

But it's hard to tell now. After all, Mr. Azik regards this place as his stronghold. It would be disrespectful to his status if some ghost stories don't happen.

Hobert wrote down in advance the general exploration process of the ruins and his conjecture that attracted Mr. Azik, and followed Mr. Azik's instructions and put it into the mailbox at No. 16 Wanbo Avenue.

He had no intention of exploring the villa. Being in a mysterious world, he had to listen to advice and put it in the mailbox as he was told.

Then Hobert took the taxi and left again, preparing to return to the law office and wait for news.

Unexpectedly, just ten minutes after the carriage walked out, the space next to Hobert suddenly became illusory. Just when he was surprised, Azik walked out of the illusory world: "Take me to that ruins."

Hobert smiled. The last time they met, the two of them admitted their respective identities as Beyonders.

So now Azik doesn't hide his extraordinary power at all.

Hobert said: "Of course, but I hope I can also get some extraordinary items in the ruins."

Although it hurts feelings to negotiate conditions right from the beginning, it is only reasonable and reasonable to agree on some things from the beginning. After all, in Azik's view, this was only the third time they met.

If there is no profit motive, Azik will doubt Hobert's purpose.

"I'm only interested in the hard feathers you mentioned." Azik said, "I can give you everything else."
