Chapter 373 Secret Stone
Bang!
Demps' snap of his fingers was hit immediately.
The high temperature flames enveloped all the food on the dining table.
When the surface of the dish is boiled, you can also see that the inside of the dish is completely corrupted in a short period of time, and soft objects similar to tentacles are already formed inside.
This is not possible for ordinary sources of pollution.
The ability to make organic matter change must come from extraordinary life outside the city.
The one that emits this special pollution is a dark gray coin stored inside the stone box, and the material is unknown.
Click!
After everyone saw the particularity of the coins, Abel immediately closed the stone box again... Otherwise, if the pollution continues to expand, the people from the Adventure Guild will come to you.
"Abel, how did this thing come about?"
Han Dong could feel a more pure polluting atmosphere from the surface of the coin than the former Stuart Lord, which was most likely from the alien demon.
"I participated in the special training group temporarily, which is completely different from the knight training camp... There is no fixed training venue, and I need to be relocated every day, similar to a small-scale expedition.
About ten days ago, the team found a [Alien Demon] nest in the gravel canyon.
The leader's Knights asked us to suppress the entire lair and capture the nest.
However……"
Speaking of this, Abel's expression began to change.
"What's wrong?"
All the staff at the dinner table were very curious about this matter, after all, it involved the strange stone box and coins that Abel took out.
"There are only a few low-level evil spirits in the cave that have just been born for a year... According to the exploration of the perceptual personnel, there seems to be a strange aura in the cave that does not belong to the inside.
At the same time, we also found a very deep secret passage at the bottom of the cave.
The secret stone path extends to the holy city and connects to the originally abandoned sewer channel.
According to the inspection, the entrance barrier set in the old sewer still exists…”
"But the other party passed through?" Han Dong continued.
"That's right... the demon and the evil and filthy group they waved were invisible to cross the barrier directly in what way, and had completely penetrated into the holy city.
It may be hiding in an abandoned sewer or hiding in a civilian area.
The information has been sent back to the Holy City, and the Knights have taken action during this period... The Adventurers Guild has also posted a lot of tasks about searching [Civilian Areas]."
"Haven't found it yet?"
"No... there is no substantial progress in this matter."
When Abel said this, Han Dong had some ideas.
When they looked at each other with Demps sitting opposite each other, the two seemed to be completely consistent in a certain opinion.
"There should be "insiders" in the holy city? First, they will connect to "visitors outside the city" in the abandoned sewer, and then provide them with normal civilian status.
After all, many people in civilian areas die every day due to illness, suicide, and strange things.
Secretly dispose of the dead body without reporting it, you can free up an "identity."
Abel nodded, “Indeed, I believe the Knights have noticed this too.
Therefore, we are now gradually investigating one by one... but still no results are found."
"Hasn't there any discovery at all? Only in-depth investigation can we find out the situation." Han Dong has only a few information to know, and there are only so many inferences that can be made.
"Captain Abel, tell me what you have in your hands?
This thing must be closely related to the guy hiding in the holy city, right?"
"The stone box and coins... I feel a little embarrassed to say it.
Due to injuries during the special training period and my condition has been not very good, I did not follow the underground passage of the large army, but stayed in the cave to guard it.
Because I felt tired, I had to keep in the owl posture to improve my attention... It should be so, but unexpectedly I noticed a mechanism in the cave, corresponding to a secret room.
Before notifying others, I took away the stone box stored on the stone table in the secret room.
During the special training period, many people also made small moves like me in private to give themselves some extra gains as much as possible.
Submitting this thing to the Knights alone will definitely directly improve my comprehensive score in this special training... But I thought about it and maybe we can still use it for ‘internal digestion’.
So I called everyone over to discuss this matter.”
Han Dong asked: "In other words, no one knows about the stone box and the coins?"
Abel nodded, "Well... If we can find the [Alien Demon] lurking in the Holy City with this special evidence, we will definitely receive a reward.
This is a large-scale reward order given by the Adventurers Guild, you can take a look first."
"Large Reward": Secret Stone Event
Location: The surface of the Holy City, all civilian areas.
Details: A stone evil group that has been mixed into the holy city and lurks in civilian areas through special means.
Difficulty: Not determined (in addition to designing ordinary evil, this event also involves a [Alien Demon], with the highest difficulty exceeding the scope of the apprentice knight's handling.
If a demon is suspected to be discovered, please evacuate the scene immediately and transmit the information to the Knights as quickly as possible.)
Scale: Large (the reward mission can be received by multiple teams together, and the reward will be determined according to the clues provided by different teams)
Time limit: None.
Completion conditions: until the Knights officially confirm and announce the death message of the invasion of the alien demon.
Mission Rewards:
1. Kill and bring back an independent evil stone to get a reward of 50 copper coins.
2. Properly provide the Knights with [Alien Demon] information and you can get a reward of 1,000 bronze coins/person.
Note: 1. There is a high probability that this incident will be ‘contaminated’, so be sure to wear [goggles] to perform tasks.
2. After completing the task, you must go to nearby churches, precepts and other places for baptism and "pressure" release.
At the bottom of the reward order, there is also a portrait of a person, which seems to be a discovered evil (secret stoner). The skin on his face slightly falls off, revealing the dark stone structure under the skin.
…………
As long as you can provide the correct information of the demon, everyone can get a reward of 1,000 copper coins, which is a great asset for the apprentice knights. (Don't compare with Demps)
Han Dong pinched his nose with his hands, "Things are not as simple as it seems... If we want to go deeper into this incident, the risk is extremely high."
“How to say it?”
"Captain Abel, didn't you just say that when you went deep into the cave, you also discovered a different aura that did not belong to this group of [secret stones]? This matter may involve more than one strange demon...
Not to mention, there are people in the Holy City that are actually receiving them... The secret behind them may be very deadly."
"Or what if we'll get together this time... I'll leave the things to my grandfather and wait for the Knights to deal with them on their own?"
"It's a bit of a waste. Since I've brought it back, why not investigate it a little...Abel's people who went to the city for special training this time have come back, right?"
"Yes."
"Okay, I'll call two 'reliable' friends to come, wait a moment... At that time, we can divide into two groups to investigate from different angles.
Chapter completed!
