After a while, the old priest took out a rather old book from the dossier. He patted the dust on it and flipped it open to make sure that there were no mistakes. He turned around and handed it to Rosik. "Sir, this secret book has recorded the relevant information about the Extreme Ice Worm, including its verified appearance, habits, and abilities. There are also some rumors and stories about the wanderers that we've collected. You can use it as a reference.
He paused for a moment and continued: "This book is very precious. Elder, you can read it but you can't spread it out."
Rozick replied politely: "Of course. I'll read it here. You go ahead."
The old priest nodded and turned to busy himself with his own business.
Rozick sat on the sofa and pretended to open the book. Then he handed it to Dean who had been waiting impatiently for a long time.
Dean saw that the book was not thin, estimated to have hundreds of pages. He slowly opened it, and there was a trace of nervousness in his heart. There was no superfluous nonsense at the beginning of the book, and there was no extension or indication. After all, it was not a novel, and the purpose was not to attract people to read it. When he turned to the second page, a sketch of the monster appeared in front of Dean.
Dean was shocked as he saw the shape of the monster. There was a trace of disbelief in his eyes.
His guess turned out to be right!
This Extreme Ice Worm was actually the Crystal Desolate Worm!
Dean was startled for a moment. He was excited. For the first time, he felt that he was blessed by God!
Although he was lucky in the past but he had to pay a big price for it. He even almost lost his life. For example, he almost became a tonic for the splitter when he got the magic marks of the splitter. Although he survived in the end and it was a blessing in disguise, but fortune and misfortune were interdependent. He didn't think that God was taking care of him but he saved himself. He had to rely on himself to fight for his luck!
But this time, he felt as if he had been struck by luck.
Although he almost lost his life in the battle with the crystal worm. He had to rely on Aisha's help to defeat the crystal worm. But for him, the danger had long passed. The crystal worm's body was of research value in his eyes. But he didn't expect that it was the key to the abyss!
It felt like he had picked it up for free!
Didn't this mean that he could become the abyss right now?
Dean felt a bit unreal as he thought about this. He was ready to sneak into the Kingdom of God and secretly inquire about the information. Maybe after a few years he would be able to master the method to enter the abyss.
But now, the key to the Abyss was in his hands.
"Elder?" Rosik saw Dudian's face change. He couldn't help but call out.
Dean came back to his senses and ignored him. He impatiently flipped down the sketch. The pattern on the sketch was similar to the crystal worm's shape. In addition, there were length, width and other data next to it. Therefore, he felt that this was the crystal worm. But there were countless monsters in the world, and there were similar monsters. He needed to see other information to be completely sure.
After reading four or five pages, Dean exhaled. Yes, the crystal worm was indeed the same as the ice worm. Whether it was the form, the ability, the living habits, the fighting form or the state after death, it was the same as the crystal worm!
He even felt that the information was based on the description of the crystal desolate worm that he had met. There was not the slightest error in what he had seen!
There were some legends about the ice worm. In these legends, there were figures of the God of War, monsters and so on. Dean skimmed through a few times and saw some more mysterious statements. It was said that the ice worm came from the far north and there were gods living there.
Although the legend was not credible, it wasn't completely false. Dean knew that the far north was the North Pole of the old era. The ice worm's ability was linked to the Arctic and the South Pole. Perhaps the ice worm really liked to live in the North Pole.
There was a trace of hope in his heart. If there was a chance he could go to the North Pole. If there was a colony of ice worms then it would be a big profit.
Perhaps the Extreme Ice Worms, which were rarely seen here, could be found everywhere over there.
Dean sobered up after thinking about it. He didn't even know where he was now, let alone go to the North Pole. Moreover, there was an ocean in the middle. Even if he could fly, would it be difficult to cross the ocean to the North Pole? In case there was a flock of birds gathering over the ocean. Moreover, there were monsters everywhere on the land. He didn't know the situation in the ocean. If the sea was affected, then the situation would become numb.
Thinking of this, the excitement in his heart calmed down a lot. There was even a trace of melancholy. "If the creatures in the ocean mutated and demonized, would the earth still be the original earth? Even if all the monsters were expelled and all the giant walls were broken, then the land would be surrounded by the ocean. What's the difference between the giant wall and the land? It would just be a big sheep pen. "
After a moment of silence, Dean suddenly couldn't help but laugh. He was really daring enough to think about it. Not to mention whether the sea creatures were demonized or not. Even if they were, it would have nothing to do with him. Expelling the monsters on land was just a fantasy for him. The difficulty was thousands of times more difficult than becoming the abyss. But now, he was just a survivor who had just obtained the abyss key.
Even if he stepped into the abyss, it was nothing.
In the past, Dean would have thought that the abyss should be regarded as the top of the human world after the disaster. But now he knew that there were three abyss in the giant wall. Coupled with the fact that Aristotle had gone to the Kingdom of God, he knew that the abyss could only be regarded as the top in the Kingdom of God. But there was still a long way to go to the real top. The water in the Kingdom of God was so deep, not to mention the countless monsters on the land.
Dean shook his head and didn't think much about it. He knew that he still had some thoughts of the old times. He hoped that one day he could break free from the shackles of the giant wall and return to the old world again. But he also understood that the times were different. Even if he wanted to change many things, he was powerless and it was difficult to achieve.
His dream of breaking the giant wall when he was a scavenger was getting weaker and weaker. Because the more powerful he was, the more he saw the difficulty of breaking the giant wall. He didn't have that kind of drive and fantasy anymore. He only hoped to restore Aisha to her original state and he would be satisfied.
Rosik, Dean and Aisha left the Temple after returning the book to the old priest. The sky was completely dark at this moment. The street was very lively, especially the area near the Temple which was surrounded by several large shops. It could be said that it was one of the busiest streets in the vicinity.
Roshick and Dean returned to the hotel.
"Give me some money. I plan to go around in the next few days." On the way back to the hotel, Dudian bluntly asked Rosik for money as if it was a matter of course.
Roshick's mouth twitched, but he thought that it was good for Dean to leave him for a while. It was better than being stared at by Dean. After hesitating for a moment, he took out a stack of gold notes from his pocket and gave it to Dean. "I only have these with me. The rest is the deposit from the supplicant."
Dean knew that Roshick wasn't lying. He took the gold notes and put them in his pocket without looking at them. Then he looked at the scenery on the street as if nothing had happened.
Losik felt bitter in his heart. He felt that he was out of luck. He didn't get any benefits from helping Dean this time. Instead, he might go bankrupt or even be annexed by other lords.
Most people wouldn't accept this kind of deal. But Roshick had no choice because he didn't even have the qualification to fight with Dean.
Now that he knew that the Ice Worm was a Crystal Desolate Worm, Dean didn't have any expectations for the Supplicant's magic mark. For him, it was dispensable. If he got it, it would only be used as an energy source to inject into the Blade Parasitic Soul Worm in his chest. He felt that this thing should be the Splitter's Parasitic Soul Worm. After all, his current body was still the Splitter, which was enough to explain everything.
Now he just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible and find a place to absorb the ice worm to evolve into the Abyss.
The method to absorb the ice worm was also recorded in the book. Dean only needed to prepare some auxiliary props. It wasn't difficult.
Soon, they arrived at the hotel. Roshick and Dean got off together.
When they entered the hotel, Roshick was about to send Dean back to his room. Several people were chatting with each other. One of them seemed to recognize Roshick and immediately called out: "Lord Roshick?"
Roshick looked up and was a little surprised: "Old Luo? You are also here? "
"You also received the invitation?" The middle-aged man called Old Luo quickly understood and smiled: "Long time no see. Come to my room tonight and chat for a while?"
Roshick glanced at Dean who was next to him.
Dean didn't intend to pay attention to Roshick's private communication: "You go ahead. I'm a little tired."
Roshick immediately nodded to Old Luo and smiled: "Then let's go to your room tonight."
Old Luo and the people next to him looked at Dean in surprise. Old Luo knew Roshick's identity. Although the people next to him didn't know Roshick, they knew what kind of person Roshick was when Old Luo called him 'lord'. However, it seemed that Roshick was in awe of Dean. They couldn't help but look at Dean a few more times. They secretly tried to figure out Dean's identity in their hearts.
However, they were high-ranking people. Although they were paying attention in their hearts, they smiled on the surface and didn't show it.
Dean didn't let Roshick accompany him. He went upstairs with Aisha.
When Dean went upstairs, Old Luo and Roshick immediately chatted with each other. They inadvertently mentioned Dean, but Roshick didn't know what they were thinking. He just ignored it. Although he wanted to tell the other lords that Dean was an invader from outside the giant wall and that he was being held hostage by him, he didn't dare to say it openly. Not to mention that Dean was here!
Although he wasn't a pioneer, he knew the abilities of pioneers. In addition to amazing strength, pioneers had their own special skills. With Dean's strength, it was easy for him to hear the conversation within a radius of three miles.
It was true. However, Dean didn't pay too much attention to Roshick after he came to his room. He felt that he wouldn't dare to expose his identity. It was tantamount to courting death.
Dean and Aisha sat in front of the window and enjoyed the night view outside. This hotel was very high. The distant and close-up view outside was very beautiful. The lights were brilliant. Such a beautiful night view showed that this hotel was of a very high grade.
Dean talked to Aisha about the interesting things outside while thinking about what to do after absorbing the Ice Worm.
Once he became an Abyss, he would be able to continue his journey. There was no difference whether he wanted the Supplicant or not. If it was used as a supplement, the Supplicant would be no different from the other weaker Legendary Parasitic Soul Worms. They would all be at the same level.
As he thought about it, the night was getting darker. Dean was also sleepy. He carried Aisha to the soft big bed and hugged each other to sleep.
In the middle of the night, Dean was awakened by a whisper. The voice wasn't loud, but it was somewhat loud in his ears. Plus, he had slept very comfortably after entering the giant wall these days, so he wasn't particularly sleepy.
Dean tried to discern the source of the whisper. He found that the whisper came from a room on the second or third floor. He also heard Rosik's voice. It was Rosik's voice that woke him up. He thought that Rosik had come to wake him up.
Dean frowned slightly when he thought of the person who greeted Roshick. He took out his pocket watch and looked at the time. He had slept for less than two hours. It was just 12 o 'clock. For some people who liked nightlife, it wasn't too late.
When he was about to go back to sleep, he suddenly frowned and carefully listened to the conversation of Roshick and others.
After a moment, the whisper stopped. The meeting was over.
Dean thoughtfully glanced downstairs with his x-ray vision. His eyes passed through several rooms, only to find that some people were asleep and some were awake. They were doing indescribable things with their female companions. There were guards waiting by the windows in several rooms, all of whom were at the level of Pioneers.
In the room where Roshick was talking, four or five people dispersed and went out one after another.
Dean withdrew his gaze and recalled their conversation. "The purpose of the banquet? Is it related to the abyss? "
During the conversation, Old Luo and two other people who had a good relationship with Roshick guessed the purpose of this banquet. One of them said that it seemed to be related to the abyss and needed a lot of money and manpower, so they were summoned.
Dean thought for a moment, and suddenly an idea came to his mind. Although these people deliberately lowered their voices, the people who lived here were guarded by pioneers. If someone wanted to eavesdrop on their conversation, it was not difficult. Could it be that the person who spread the news about the abyss deliberately said so?
If it was intentional, what was the purpose?
Dean frowned slightly and thought for a moment. In the end, he still couldn't think of any reason. He didn't think anymore and closed his eyes to sleep.
Dean left the hotel at dawn with Aisha. He didn't say goodbye to Roshick, but when he went out, he bumped into Roshick's daughter, Losini.
Dean didn't expect the little girl to get up so early. He glanced at her and didn't say anything.
