"Is that why they can disregard human lives?!" Adolf was getting angry.
"Isn't it too far from the justice in your heart?" Lin Sheng smiled. "But you need to consider that these people from the government are also human. They will be afraid, and they will seek benefits and avoid harms. This is human nature. Do you really expect them to charge into the manor and fight Zeon Sr. for a salary of ten thousand dollars a month? What right do they have? Spirit of sacrifice? "
"…" Adolf obviously understood, but he could not accept it.
"This world is made up of countless people with power, and it's an order made up of them. If you want justice and fairness, then you have to make them respect you. "Lin Sheng explained.
The expression on Adolf's face gradually changed from anger and dissatisfaction to determination towards power.
Seeing the change in Adolf's temperament, Lin Sheng's goal was achieved.
Adolf's aptitude was outstanding, his will was firm, and he was single-minded. His compatibility with the Holy Light was very high.
At the same time, he was Lin Sheng's capable logistical support.
Lin Sheng planned to groom him as the second Sarroux.
The environment in Celine was unstable, but it was different in Xylond. He had time to let Adolf grow.
Adolf was quickly led away.
His sister, Sheena, and his father, Carney, who had woken up, understood the relationship between their brother and the mysterious Holy Sanctum. They immediately wanted to provide more resources to the Holy Sanctum.
Moreover, in return for saving them this time, Carney was just like his son, very straightforwardly waving his pen, drawing out a precious property that could allow anyone to settle down and settle down.
After dealing with the chores and brainwashing Adolf, Lin Sheng went to check on Zeon Sr. who had been captured.
Zeon Sr. was locked up in an underground cave behind the forest.
It was an underground base-like cave dug by the Vault Guards. This was because the forest was bought and given to Lin Sheng for 200 years. So he did not stand on ceremony.
Zeon Sr. was quite self-aware. Without much interrogation, he quickly revealed everything he knew.
Especially when it came to the Black Demon Blood that had been passed down in his family, he spoke in great detail. He tried to show his value as much as possible in order to survive.
Unfortunately, Lin Sheng's Detection of Evil had detected his malicious intent. After interrogating and getting the bank card's password, Lin Sheng threw it to Khadula.
Zeon Sr., the strongest member of the Zeon family, was only a Two-wing Transcendent.
Someone of this level might have been powerful to Lin Sheng in the beginning, but now, he was no match for him.
But now, that was all.
After everything was settled, Lin Sheng returned to the academy after passing on the Ashen Seals, leaving the rest to Khadula.
…
…
Under the dim light of the street lamp, a swarm of flying insects flew around the lampshade like fog.
Maier and two other agents stood together. The three of them surrounded a puddle of black goo on the ground. None of them spoke, but their expressions were ugly.
This was the northern area of Shermanton. Originally, this area was inhabited by craftsmen. But after Xylond raised the status of craftsmen, this area became one of the most developed areas in Shermanton.
And now, in the most developed area of the city, this kind of trouble had appeared.
"After the infiltration is the Black Spot. Now, it's hard to stop it with our strength alone. We need to report this to the higher-ups. "Maier said in a low voice.
"The Black Spot phenomenon … It can actually swallow a living thing and make it disappear into thin air …" A man in a grey windbreaker beside him said with a hint of shock in his voice.
He picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it at the puddle of black goo on the ground.
The stone easily fell into the black liquid and was completely submerged, never to roll out again.
"It looks like a puddle of black goo, but in essence, it's more like a dangerous black hole that leads to other places." Another man quickly analyzed. "Is this the legendary Black Spot?"
"You've never seen it before? It happened in Shermanton last year, but there were only five. But this year, in just half a year, there have been more than ten! "Maier rubbed his stiff face.
"And the infiltration phenomenon … It's been a disaster recently." He finally concluded.
* Hiss … *
At that moment, the black goo on the ground made a faint sound and slowly disappeared.
"Let's go. Let's go." Maier heaved a sigh of relief and turned to leave.
…
…
* Tick tock tock tock … *
As the clock ticked, Lin Sheng slowly opened his eyes.
He was sitting in the small sanctum of Blackfeather City, between a row of benches on the left.
The sanctum was filled with the faint aura of Saint power. Not only did it not feel empty, but there was also a special sense of familiarity and intimacy.
He stood up, walked out from the middle of the benches, and pushed the door open.
Out of the yard, he quickly walked to the Warrior's Guild.
The huge bull-shaped building of the Warrior's Guild was still standing there quietly as before.
Lin Sheng calmed himself down and stepped into the space where the Steel Lord was with his axe in hand.
He was here to check on his loot.
During this time, he had already checked the outer area of the Warrior's Guild. Aside from some weapons and armor, he found nothing.
Now, only the core area was left.
The core area of the bull-headed building was at the main entrance, under a baffle under the throne of the hall.
That baffle was the key to connecting the two areas.
When Lin Sheng found it before, he did not have enough time to go down and check. Today, he planned to open it again and check.
"Hope there's useful knowledge …"
Lin Sheng strode over the metal gate of the Warrior's Guild and walked around the pit left by the Steel Lord. He went in through the main entrance.
Walking straight to the front of the throne, Lin Sheng looked down at the entrance of the tunnel with the baffle lifted.
He reached out and pulled the ring at the entrance.
There was a rumbling vibration.
Lin Sheng pulled it out bit by bit. About ten seconds later, the baffle was erected, and the entire entrance was completely revealed to Lin Sheng.
Below the baffle was a clean gray stone path that extended underground without an end in sight.
Lin Sheng waited for a while, waiting for the dirty air to dissipate before he slowly walked into the entrance with his axe.
He went all the way down the stairs.
In less than two minutes, Lin Sheng's eyes suddenly opened up. He entered a spacious room the size of a basketball court.
The room was densely packed with all kinds of dark yellow books. Unlike other places, the books here seemed to be randomly scattered on the ground. There were not even any bookshelves.
Lin Sheng even found the ashes of the burned books in the corner.
He bent down to pick up a book and flipped through it.
On the dark yellow page, a sentence was quietly written: "Disaster is coming, but the will to fight is eternal."
He flipped it open more. But he did not expect the content to be even more alarmist. It was a kind of perspective like using a diary or a third-party record to view the content of the book.
"Infiltration, Black Liquid, Blacktide, Mist. When the apocalypse comes step by step, we will have no way to escape. "
"The boundary between the living and the dead began to blur, and the rules between spirit and evil began to break. All order began to collapse. Death is like harvested wheat fields, falling in large swathes. "
"Find the node … find the node … find the intersection point where the world fell … destroy it, that is the only last chance …"
