The Mystery:The Witch and the Scourge

Colin Yinliat listened very carefully and never interrupted, but silently compared Derrick and Lovia in his mind.

Compared to Elder Lovia who proactively confessed that the exploration team might have been contaminated and voluntarily been imprisoned, Derrick in front of him was more like a fanatical believer, and the god he believed in was naturally the one he often mentioned.

"Mr. Fool".

As a mature "demon hunter" and the chief of Silver City, Colin Yinliat has his own judgment.

Lovia's behavior was somewhat similar to that of the exploration captain who had been possessed by Amon for forty years, which made Colin Yinliat feel uneasy. He even had the idea of ​​imprisoning Lovia indefinitely.

If Derrick hadn't appeared...

As the end approaches, Silver City seems to be no longer peaceful, but can this be an opportunity for Silver City to get out of this dark land? Perhaps it should be called the "Land Abandoned by Gods"?

Abandoned by God... Colin Yinliad secretly pondered this adjective. Derrick's description gradually came to an end in his ears. He quickly spoke and asked the most critical question:

"Since you have already been selected by that 'Mr. Fool' to be the one involved, why have you been hiding it for a long time and then suddenly confessed it all today?"

Derrick answered honestly:

"Because Amon and the 'True Creator' both appeared in Silver City, Mr. Fool allows me to promote her existence and beliefs to you."

"'True Creator,' you mean Elder Lovia?" Colin Yinliatt said.

"Yes, Elder Lovia is the 'Shepherd', and it is the extraordinary path controlled by the 'True Creator'. She must have been contaminated!" Derrick said solemnly, but it was no longer as it was the first time.

So excited.

He already knows that the chief will not do anything to Elder Lovia, because in the eyes of the chief, he is also the spokesperson of "the gods" and is no different from Elder Lovia.

Although Mr. Fool and the "True Creator" are two gods opposing good and evil, the Chief is right to have doubts. All Derrick can do is to try to make the Chief believe in the kindness of Mr. Fool.

Colin Yinliad glanced at Derrick appreciatively, and then said:

“So, is ‘The Fool’’s attitude towards the ‘True Creator’ and Amon hostile?”

Derrick did not answer directly, but described sideways:

"In the outside world, the 'True Creator' is an evil god, and Amon's clone has been lurking in the Silver City for forty years."

Colin Yinliatt did not deny this fact. He thought for a moment and continued to ask:

"What is the purpose of coming to me today to talk about this?"

In fact, the question should be what the purpose of "The Fool" is, and the two of them have a tacit understanding of this.

We finally reached the final stage... Derrick was a little excited and immediately replied:

"Mr. 'Fool' will respond to my prayers and sacrifices and perform miracles in front of Your Excellency, Chief. Please believe me. Mr. 'Fool' has no ill intentions towards Silver City. She is our hope for Silver City to escape from the land abandoned by the gods."

."

Colin Yinliad's expression suddenly became serious. He stared into Derrick's eyes seriously and said in a deep voice:

"The hope of Silver City lies in ourselves."

Facing the deep gaze looking at him, Derrick nodded solemnly:

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Colin Yinliatt closed his eyes slightly, seeming to be deep in thought, and then he asked aloud:

"What are you going to sacrifice, when and where."

Derrick suppressed his inner joy and gave the answer everyone had discussed:

"'Mirror Demon's Eyes', the time and place of sacrifice are not specified."

Of course Colin Yinliat understood that this was to eliminate the opposition voices in Silver City as much as possible, which also showed that the "Fool" may not have any malicious intentions. At least this action should not bring particularly big consequences.

Danger.

Silver City has not received a response for thousands of years. If it weren't for the fact that there was still some hope in people's hearts, they would have disappeared in this dark land.

The risk of destruction and the hope of escaping from the land abandoned by God cannot coexist.

Suddenly, Colin Yinliat's ears moved slightly, and then he asked aloud:

"Why is it the 'Mirror Demon's Eye'? Its sequence is not low, but it is not an item needed by a god."

Derrick lowered his head and replied:

"Don't spy on the gods."

"No, you are trying to hide it." Colin Yinliat said in a deep voice, seeming very determined. He paused and then continued:

"You just said that the 'Fool' will select extraordinary people to become scrollers, so the 'mirror demon's eyes' are not needed by the 'Fool', but by one of her scrollers. You just mentioned a name,

Miss 'Strength', I admire her very much..."

Derrick suddenly raised his head and heard His Excellency the Chief say calmly:

"The person who needs the 'Mirror Demon Eyes' is this Miss Power, right?"

After a short silence, Derrick sighed and said helplessly:

"Okay, you guessed it right."

Colin Yinliad did not suspect that Derrick was lying to him, but he was very surprised by the latter's frankness. He simply admitted it like this, as if he had expected it?

"Who is this Miss Power?" he asked.

Derrick wanted to say that Miss Power is the smartest person I have ever met. She has almost guessed all your reactions... Putting aside the chaotic thoughts in his mind, he replied:

"Although Miss Power is only a mid-level Beyonder, she is very knowledgeable and has a good understanding of ancient mythology and history, and is especially familiar with the Land Abandoned by the Gods..."

According to Miss Power's description of himself, Derrick simply repeated it and finally added:

"Miss 'Strength' said that she would exchange something of sufficient value for the 'Mirror Demon's Eyes'. It could be information or extraordinary items. She would not refuse."

Colin Yinliat thought for a long time, and finally gave an uncertain answer, saying:

"This matter needs to be discussed by the 'Six-member Council'. I can't give you an answer right away."

Derrick nodded: "I understand. During this period, I am willing to accept protective custody."

Colin Yinliatt was a little surprised by this, but he did not refuse. Finally, after a moment of silence, he asked:

"Miss Power, this is obviously a code name. Can I know your name in The Fool?"

Derrick stood up and said firmly:

"sun."

"I will take Silver City out of the land abandoned by the gods. If I can't, then I will try to become the sun."
