"I want these materials to be transported as fast as possible."
Dean passed the list of materials for the biological sensor to Sergei: "In addition, ask the dark church to send five of the best alchemists in the metal field. Especially Flofis who wrote the book 'Mechanical Capacity'."
"Yes, young master. I'll go." Sergei respectfully said as he received the list of materials. He had the highest pass from the dark church so he could freely go in and out of the 12th region. Moreover, the elders of the 12th region recognized him so it was very convenient for him to do things.
Dean watched Sergei leave. He was about to prepare for the next invention when he heard a rustling sound from outside the window. Although it was extremely weak but it didn't escape his ears. It seemed that a large number of reptiles were moving around the room.
Dean's eyes lit up as he looked at Neuss: "Call someone to check the back hall."
Neuss also heard the movement from outside the hall: "Master, I'll go and check."
Dean glanced at him and signaled with his eyes.
Neuss was startled as he saw Dean's eyes. He realized that the situation was unusual: "I know, young master." After he finished speaking, he left the shrine and quickly returned with a Holy Knight, saying, "Go to the rear hall to check."
The paladin was trembling with fear as he respectfully agreed. He quickly walked to the back of the shrine to take a look. What he saw shocked him as he saw a large number of poisonous creatures crawling up the cliff at the back, densely packed together. It seemed that the poisonous creatures saw the paladin as they crawled towards him. One of them was a green toad that was about the size of a fist. It jumped towards the paladin's face.
The paladin was scared as he retreated from the window. He instinctively pulled out his sword to block but he remembered that he had left his sword outside the Temple.
He hurriedly left the hall and saw Neuss waiting by the curtain: "My lord, there are a lot of poisonous insects crawling up. I'll call someone to clean them up."
"Poisonous creatures?" Neuss was startled: "You go back first and wait in the hall. There's no need to call people."
"Yes, elder." The paladin bowed his head and ran out of the hall.
Neuss quickly returned to Dean's side. Dean asked: "It has always been calm. How can there be poisonous creatures?"
Neuss was surprised: "Master, what do you mean?"
"A lot of people are jealous of us as we sit in this position. I think it's a prank." Dean looked at him. There was a glimmer of light in the depths of his eyes: "Call someone to come and clean up. Sprinkle insect repellent powder on the cliff to prevent such a thing from happening again."
"Yes, master."
Neuss was about to leave but Dean stopped him: "Take these things with you. They are disturbing my peace. Follow me to the side hall." Dean's eyes were fixed on him as he handed the paper and ink to him.
Neuss felt that Dean's eyes were on him. He looked at Dean and saw that Dean's eyes flashed. Neuss winked at him.
Neuss was startled but soon recovered. There was some doubt in his heart. Was there someone spying on them? Otherwise what was the meaning of Dean's wink?
Although he didn't understand, he didn't show it. After all, he had been in the Thorn Flower Prison, so he still had the ability to hide it. Immediately, he obediently took the Du Pen and Ink and led the way out of the hall.
Dean shook the bell and held Aisha's hand as they walked out of the hall.
"One, two, three …" Eleanor's ears were glued to the soil, so she could hear every word that was being said above her. Even though the sound was transmitted through the air instead of the ground, it was still transmitted through the bones of the human body to the ground. The only difference was that the sound was so weak that ordinary people wouldn't be able to hear it, but Eleanor could hear it clearly.
When Dean stopped his attendants from coming over to check, she felt a trace of fear and nervousness. She didn't expect the teenager to react so quickly and be so cautious! However such a situation was within her expectation. The poisonous insects would climb into the Temple and they would have to clean them up. At the same time she would be able to find the position of the person suspected to be Aisha.
At the moment the teenager didn't choose to clean them up but left the Temple. This made her feel relieved. But at the same time she was puzzled. The teenager looked cautious enough. Why would he mistake the poisonous insects as an attack from the outer wall? Was it because the method was too inferior? Or was it because he had too many enemies in the outer wall? Although there were doubts in her heart, her attention quickly followed the sound of footsteps.
"This footstep …" Her attention fell on the third set of footsteps, and the joy in her heart quickly turned into shock. From the image that came from her sense of hearing, she could clearly see the appearance of two people walking in the other two sets of footsteps, but this third set of footsteps was like a ghost, and she could only see the sound of two feet landing on the ground.
In addition, there was no sound of heartbeat. There was no sound of internal organs shaking or gastric juices flowing. If she had to describe it then it would be like a wooden person!
She was bewildered. After hesitating for a moment, she decided to follow them and observe again.
The monstrous limbs under her abdomen quickly fiddled with the soil, sneaking behind Dean and swimming toward the side hall. She was like a fish in the sea, shuttling freely in the soil.
At this moment, she heard the people above enter a hall at the side. The young man said, "Close all the curtains."
Soon the sound of curtains being pulled echoed.
"Master, it's done."
"Come over, I have something to say to you."
"Yes, master."
"These poisonous insects shouldn't be the work of the people from the outer wall. It should be the people from the inner wall." The teenager said as he pulled out a chair and sat down.
Eleanor's heart tightened when she heard that. At the same time, her previous doubts were cleared up. It seemed that the little brat had deliberately misled her, thinking that she was watching him from afar when she released the venomous bugs. After all, lip-reading wasn't a difficult task, especially for an assassin. However, the little brat was still a little brat, and he was too careless. He didn't know that she was investigating from underground!
There was a trace of complacency and contempt in her heart. She listened more carefully.
"The people from the inner wall?" The teenager's attendant was surprised: "Did the Monastery send someone again? The expert they sent last time was killed by you, Young Master. You said that the next time they send someone, it will definitely be a very powerful person. Now, we … "
"Shh, lower your voice." The teenager reminded him: "It could be the military. I didn't expect the people from the inner wall to act so quickly. It's time to prepare to annihilate the entire inner wall. My plan has been deployed. Inform them to prepare to start. The codename of the plan is …"
"Master, your voice is too low. I can't hear you clearly."
"Be careful. The walls have ears. Come closer."
Eleanor frowned. She couldn't hear the codename of the teenager. She knew that Dudian was going to repeat it. Although her goal was to find out whether Aisha was here or not, but the teenager's plan to annihilate the entire inner wall sounded like a boast! Although she didn't believe that the teenager could do it, but she was still very curious. After all, even if the plan couldn't annihilate the inner wall, it would have a very strong destructive power.
"Do you remember?" The teenager asked.
Upon hearing this, Eleanor was slightly taken aback. He's already done? She didn't hear it clearly!
"Master, your voice is too low. Why don't you write it down?" The attendant said.
"Alright."
The teenager picked up the pen. There was a slight rustling sound.
Eleanor listened carefully to the voice, trying to decipher the content of the young man's words through the strokes. However, she was soon dumbfounded because the young man's strokes were completely messed up. In other words, he had written one stroke for every word in a paragraph, and the strokes were not in sequence. Even if she listened to it a hundred times, she would not be able to decipher what the young man had written.
"Master, I'll remember."
"Take this token with you. They will execute the plan only if they see it. Well, go through the secret passage."
"Yes, Master."
Eleanor heard that the footsteps of the attendant were a lot heavier than before. The sound of his landing was louder than before, indicating that the weight of his body had increased. Combined with the 'token' that Dean mentioned, it was obvious that the attendant was carrying something on his back.
She hesitated. Should she continue to stay here and investigate Aisha's matter? Or should she go and see what the plan was?
After thinking for a moment, she decided to go and see the plan first. Her intuition told her that she wouldn't be able to distinguish the authenticity of Aisha. If she could know the plan, then she would be able to go back and explain.
After all, Hathaway asked her to come here to verify whether the Monastery's statement was true or not. From the current situation, although she couldn't confirm that this person was Aisha, at least she could confirm that the Monastery's Pioneers were killed. There was a Pioneer level powerhouse here!
Moreover, she had seen this young man's face before. He was the person that Hathaway was looking for. By completing all of this, her mission could be considered a success. If she could find out about this plan and make use of it, perhaps it could be considered a great merit!
Thinking of these, she immediately swam toward the attendant's footsteps.
Very quickly, the attendant followed the secret passage downwards, getting closer and closer to her.
She didn't rush to make a move. After waiting for a moment, the attendant went toward St. Mark's Square. It seemed that he was going to leave from there. There was a distance of thousands of meters from the direction of the Temple. Moreover, it was in the secret passage 50 meters underground. She believed that if she made a move here, it would never be noticed by "Aisha" in the Temple.
