The next day.
Chung Shen-soo opened the door and saw a nervous Davis.
"Li Wei, how are you? Did anything happen after you left the office last night? "
Davis looked at his student nervously.
His strength was too weak. He had been trapped by Sala's trap for the whole night, and had only managed to break free after much difficulty. He had then hurried over to see his student.
"Last night … I think I heard a woman asking if I wanted to play a game …"
Chung Shen-soo had thick dark circles under his eyes. "Then I fainted. When I woke up this morning, my whole body was in pain … Teacher, is there a problem here?"
"Ahem … nothing. I didn't expect Sala to know how to hold back in her old age …"
Davis was a little emotional. Then he rolled his eyes. "Sala was a senior of our school. After she died, her soul was left here to form some kind of protection. Don't worry about what happened last night. She was just joking with you …"
'If someone else had said that, they might have believed it.'
Chung Shen-soo secretly rolled his eyes. If he wanted to, he could really turn Sala into something like a guardian spirit.
However, his ability to play dumb was top-notch, and he managed to brush it off with a few vague words.
Professor Davis left in relief. He hurriedly prepared to ask the construction team to repair the big hole in the wall.
It seemed that he thought Sala had held back and did not hurt the student.
Chung Shen-soo turned around to tidy up his belongings and prepared to leave.
Last night, he had received an interesting piece of information from Sala.
"It turns out that the so-called brewing method of the Blood of Eternal Life is essentially a ritual. As long as the 'Blood Key', 'Flesh Key', and 'Bone Key' are gathered, and more than 100,000 people are sacrificed, the 'Holy Grail', whose original body is unknown, can be summoned from nothingness, causing it to overflow with the Blood of Eternal Life …"
"And this ritual has a strong mystical attraction …"
"No matter where it is held, it will always attract the high-ranking followers of the Master of Black Blood … Therefore, in every Blood Cup War, there will be extremely crazy 'Perfectionists' appearing and causing great damage … However, it is precisely because the destructive power of the 'Perfectionists' is too great that the ritual can easily fail. Therefore, in the previous few Blood Cup Wars, no one seems to have succeeded."
"Really, I wanted to slowly follow the clues through Cardilla, but now the answer is right in front of me. It's really not challenging at all."
He was somewhat interested in the Blood of Longevity, but not too much.
After all, this kind of forceful ascension ceremony was obviously dangerous.
Moreover, rather than snatching the Blood of Eternal Life, it would be better to wait until the winner of the Battle of Blood Cup was determined and snatch the opponent's Spiritual Lattice!
Up until now, Chung Shen-soo still had no idea what the Origin Core and Spirit Lattice were.
'If it's the' divinity 'that I guessed, it seems that it can be carried by the true spirit and brought back …'
'But if it really is a solid object, then it's going to be troublesome …'
Chung Shen-soo carried a suitcase and walked out of the school.
"Eh? Li Wei … you're leaving too? "
Jason, who had just returned from work, was surprised to see this scene.
"No, I'm just taking a break for a while. I'm still a member of the school. If you, teacher, and Camilla run into any trouble, you can go to the Whisperer Bar No. 2. You can contact me there."
Chung Shen-soo still had a good impression of this person who had led him into the school.
"Sigh … I'll go see teacher."
Jason sighed. "He'll definitely be very sad …"
"It's okay, I've already said …"
Chung Shen-soo was a little helpless.
"No, I just saw the newspaper!"
Jason waved the morning paper in his hand. "The person in charge of the company that teacher heavily invested in had died of metal poisoning this morning. The family is fighting over the inheritance, and the company is about to go bankrupt and reorganize …"
"Ah …"
Chung Shen-soo was slightly shocked. "Jason … are you sure that teacher really didn't provoke the Servant of Ouroboros and was cursed with his fortune?"
"This question … I also want to know …"
…
Whisperer Bar No. 2.
Chung Shen-soo carried his suitcase and entered the bar. He felt the atmosphere was a little heavy.
"Boss!"
He walked behind the bar counter, and Scarface came up to him. "Some Prohibition Agents swept through our goods. That batch of alcohol was originally transported from Byron City to supply the market … I had already bribed the Prohibition Agents in Israel, but they turned against us."
"You've already taken money, yet you're still so unprofessional?"
Chung Shen-soo smiled. "It seems that either you or I have offended someone."
"I'll go get rid of that agent."
Scarface's expression was ferocious.
"There's no point in doing this, other than angering the Federation …"
Chung Shen-soo rejected this proposal. "We need to find the person who's targeting us."
"Damn it, there's too many …"
Scarface squatted down and scratched his head in frustration. "The local dealers, gangs, and Wales, who rented this place to me, who lost part of their business to us."
"Wait a minute, why did you offend the landlord?" Chung Shen-soo was a little puzzled.
"Because I put a gun on his head to negotiate the rental contract, so I got a very favorable price." Scarface answered matter-of-factly.
"Well, I can't remember the people I offended …"
Chung Shen-soo helplessly pressed his temple and suddenly said, "Prepare a quiet room for me, silver candlesticks, candles, gold powder … I'm going to hold a ceremony."
This was knowledge from the forbidden book area, a special skill belonging to the 'secret keeper' domain.
In the spiritual world, there was all the information and projections of the real world, including the past and the future. This was the root of divination!
And the secret keeper mastered the domain of 'secret history', and everything that happened in the past could not be hidden from him.
In other words, the secret keeper's followers are very good at divination of what happened in the past, and the followers of the Arbiter are better at predicting the future … Well, the Ouroboros that controls fate can also partially involve the future and even change it … It seems that the relationship between the Ouroboros and the Arbiter is not good.
After all, people of the same trade are enemies.
Judging from the establishment of the Mesopotamian Federation, the secret keeper, the Arbiter, and the Seven Disasters should belong to the same alliance. As for the other existences, they probably have different positions, and even have internal conflicts, such as the Ouroboros and Damo, so they can't stop the 'Three Gods Alliance'?
But Chung Shen-soo was not so particular about which ritual to use. He could use whichever was convenient.
Anyway, he would not believe in any of them!
