Super Doctor of the Universe

Chapter 217 Fishing in Troubled Waters

The two walked along the mountain road for hundreds of meters and saw a giant cave that was almost hollowed out. There were many ancient Byzantine-style buildings, which were built on the underground base in an orderly manner.

The two came to an iron gate and saw the copper balls hanging inside through the gap.

"This is probably the solar system that Jacob mentioned." Link said as he pried open the iron gate, and then opened the mechanism according to Jacob's previous instructions and found the entrance to Kit City.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance of Kit City, they felt the temperature around them drop suddenly. Not far ahead, snow began to appear, and the mountain walls on both sides were covered with ice walls.

"This is the real Kit City. The ruins we saw before should be auxiliary buildings." Looking at the archway that appeared between the mountain walls in front of them, Link said so and walked through the archway with Laura.

Soon, the two heard bursts of noisy footsteps and noticed a team of soldiers in armor walking through the corridor. Obviously, these were all undead warriors.

The two hid in the blind spot to observe. These undead warriors were all wearing heavy armor such as chain mail, helmets, and arm guards. The weapons in their hands were also different, mainly longbows, long swords, spears, swords and shields.

Especially according to Jacob, these undead warriors have normal human intelligence, which is much higher than the undead warriors of Queen Himiko. Link estimated that the preciousness of the Holy Source is not less than the Triangle of Divine Light, and it is even possible to have its own consciousness.

According to Jacob, when the undead army is not in a state of war, they usually gather around the Soul Chamber where the Holy Source is preserved, but they will also send out multiple teams at regular intervals to patrol the city day and night. What Link saw just now was the patrol team.

Fortunately, the entire Kit City is very large. The undead army of only one thousand people can only conduct intermittent patrols around the main roads at most. With Link and Laura's infiltration skills, these undead armies are difficult to find.

The two of them bypassed several patrol teams and headed towards the city center. The light source of the entire city was the candles hanging on the wall that seemed to never go out.

The two of them finally climbed over a wall and entered the inner city. Various buildings were arranged in order throughout the city, and finally gathered in front of a gate in the distance.

There was the only passage leading to the deeper part of the inner city. There were more people patrolling around here, and there were also undead troops stationed at the location of the passage.

Looking at the passage in front of him, Link said: "If we want to pass through here, it seems that we need to use some tricks. I don't know if the source of the sacred has given these undead troops special abilities, and whether they can see through the invisibility magic."

"Or we can ask Jacob." Laura suggested: "The undead troops here are as many as a thousand people, and the key is that they still have intelligence. It's better for us to sneak in without alarming them, otherwise it will be more troublesome."

"You're right!" Link nodded, took out a walkie-talkie, and prepared to contact Jacob outside through it to see if he has any way.

"Jacob, are you there?"

After saying that, a few seconds later, the voice that came from the other side of the intercom was not Jacob's, but a voice that Link and Laura were familiar with: "Link, is Laura with you too?"

Listening to the familiar voice, Laura subconsciously called out the other party's name: "Anna."

Both Link and Laura looked serious. They didn't expect Anna to continue to appear. Logically speaking, after Constantine and his group were eliminated, there should not be many people left with Constantine, and they would not pose a big threat in a short time.

But looking at the current situation, Jacob was obviously caught. In this case, most of the villagers would not be spared, which was far different from Link's estimate.

"Yes, it's me. Where are you now?"

"Do you think I don't know that you have been in contact with Trinity?" Laura couldn't help but said through the intercom: "When Link and I went to Yamatai, and the information about the Tomb of the Prophet, you leaked all of these to Trinity. What did you do to Jacob and the others!"

"It seems that you really found out." Anna also had a premonition about this. Although Laura didn't say it out of consideration for their years of relationship, she refused to let her continue to manage the Crawford family's industry. In the next one or two years, she constantly replaced and eliminated her confidants. These were enough for Anna to make a judgment.

Blind confirmed her hunch, Anna said randomly: "The ignorant locals you want to find are still alive, at least for now."

"In fact, there is no need to be so. We are all pursuing the same thing. You and Link are both very rare and capable people, and you are also qualified. As long as you are willing to join the Holy Trinity, you will be one of us."

"I know what the Holy Trinity has done. Do you think I will agree?"

"It seems that you rejected my kindness." Anna was not surprised by Laura's answer. After all, she was Anna's guardian and understood Laura's character for so many years.

Therefore, her tone turned from broad to cold: "Really? I won't force you, but if you don't tell me the whereabouts of the Holy Source, I will kill your friends one by one. You only have one minute to think!"

Constantine's death made Anna very angry. She wanted to kill all the villagers. Now she was only temporarily patient in order to get the Holy Source.

Link and Laura looked at each other and knew that they could only delay time, so they said on the intercom: "Let me confirm their situation first, and then we can talk."

"Okay!" Anna on the other side did not hesitate. After a moment, Jacob's voice came from the other side: "Link, Laura!"

"Jacob, are you okay?"

"We are fine, don't tell them..." Just when he said this, there was a sound of hitting on the other side, and Jacob's voice disappeared.

Anna's voice reappeared, saying: "You have heard it, now tell me where the Holy Source is!"

"The Holy Source is in the Lost City under the ice, but I have to see that Jacob and the others are safe before I can tell you the specific situation. Otherwise, I would rather destroy the Holy Source than let you get it!"

Anna on the opposite side was silent for a while before continuing: "Very good, then we will see you later."

After finishing this conversation, Laura said to Link: "What should we do next?"

"According to the manpower we saw last time we sneaked in, the people of the Holy Trinity are not enough to subdue Jacob and the villagers. I guess they should have reinforcements." Link said: "The key now is that we don't know what the situation is over there, and the Holy Source is not easy to get. We can get it, so I think we can use Anna. "

"You mean..." Laura was slightly stunned, and soon understood Link's idea: "You deliberately told Anna about the situation in Kit City, intending to lure them here and let the Undead Army deal with them."

"That's right." Link said: "The equipment of these Undead Army is indeed backward, but like Himiko's Undead Warriors, it is not easy to kill, especially with intelligence.

Even if the people of the Holy Trinity have reinforcements, there will not be too many in a short time, and the two sides will not decide the winner in a short time. When they fight, we can find a way to fish in troubled waters. "

"This is indeed a good idea, just do as you say." Laura thought about it and thought it was a good idea, and immediately agreed to Link's arrangement.
