The fire seemed to have weakened a little, but the surroundings were still red.
Haruko Suzuki lifted a collapsed pillar and squatted down — a guy in a black kimono was lying here.
He should have been crushed here after receiving the impact of the collapse of the ancient castle.
The body was cold — but considering that the Takizawa Clan members were cold-blooded animals, it was impossible to guess the time of his death.
However, this was not very important to Haruko Suzuki. What was important was that the soul of the dead Takizawa Clan member had not completely disappeared.
The remaining soul power was a delicious food for Haruko Suzuki. Hakata's soul was severely damaged, and the easiest way to recover was to devour other souls.
"What a pity … Those guys hiding in the Takizawa Clan were killed in seconds, not leaving a single bit of soul power. Otherwise, they would be a great tonic …"
'Natsuki Suzuki' shook her head. Although she felt that it was a pity, at this moment, she obviously wouldn't shout at the murderer because of this.
"Brother Lian Zhen!" Haruko Suzuki turned around and shouted. A shadow was suspended a few centimeters above the ground, looking at the Big Dipper that was dyed red by the fire.
"Brother Lian Zhen, don't just stand there. Look and see how many can be eaten," Haruko Suzuki shouted again.
At this time, Lianzhen said in a low voice, "I say, Orochi, are we actually very weak in this world?"
In the face of Lian Zhen's sudden question, Orochi did not immediately respond — it just continued to do its own thing, devouring the soul power that it had found.
Wisps of purple smoke drifted out of the body and were inhaled into Haruko Suzuki's nostrils. Haruko Suzuki showed a comfortable expression at this time.
When this was over, Hakata slowly opened its eyes and said coldly, "Isn't it because you have seen your own incompetence that you want to obtain more power? Those with talent can climb the peak, those without talent can only be mediocre for life … This is just an excuse given by the lazy. "
Lian Zhen suddenly turned to Hakata … It did not expect this guy to say such a thing.
"There's still some left, do you want to eat it?" Hakata pointed at the body on the ground.
"It's too little, you eat it yourself." Lian Zhen shook its head. "I can rely on the power of the starlight to recover, it's just a little slower."
Hakata shrugged and swallowed the rest of the body.
"What are you going to do next?" Lian Zhen suddenly asked, "Since we already know that Natsuya Suzuki's real body is such a horrible guy, and that he is related to that place … we don't need to keep Suzuki's family, do we?"
"Would it be difficult for a God of Slaughter who can slaughter a big clan without blinking an eye to kill me now?" Hakata shook its head. "He just gave a warning. So, as long as I don't do anything harmful to Haruxin Suzuki, it can be considered as a kind of acquiescence. "
"What does it mean?" Lian Zhen frowned.
"I don't know the details." Hakata said helplessly. "I just had a feeling that if I ran away from this body because of fear, I'm afraid I wouldn't be here anymore … I really don't want to see such a ferocious guy again."
Lian Zhen was silent for a moment … it knew clearly that what Hakata did not want to face was not the real body of Natsuya Suzuki, who was like a God of Slaughter, but the mysterious place behind him that no one could figure out.
"By the way, when I first investigated, I found a place." Lian Zhen suddenly said, "It should be the place where the Takizawa Family stored their treasures. But I couldn't go through it at that time, because there was a defensive force similar to a barrier set up there. "
"Oh?" Hakata raised his eyebrows. "Now that the Takizawa Family is dead and the castle has been damaged to this extent, the defense of the treasure vault is likely to have been weakened, or even … disappeared!"
"Let's see if there is anything useful." Lian Zhen nodded.
"Hmm … let me finish this!"
…
…
Sakata Kintoshi, who was on the verge of collapsing, quickly got up and regained his composure.
In fact, he was a relatively free and easy person — of course, the deduction of his performance was enough to make him feel the pain for a long time.
Basically, Black Soul Envoys were salesmen who attracted customers for the club and earned resources. Most of the envoys could do this job — but after all, there were differences between individuals. Some envoys were born unsuitable for this kind of work, so later on, another kind of job was born — professional debt collectors.
Of course, it was rare to meet a guy who dared not pay back his debts — but there were still some.
To deal with these stubborn guys, it was time for the professional debt collectors to take action — but the performance of debt collectors was generally not as good as the commission of business soliciting.
As the club's gold medal (self-appointed) debt collector, Kinshi Sakata spent almost 90% of his working time in debt collection since he became a Black Soul Messenger. It was a very simple idea. Since he couldn't win in terms of quality, he would win in terms of quantity.
"Hmm! Sir manager, is there a guy who owes money and refuses to pay back his debts recently? "Sakata Kinshi grinned grimly," My big axe is already thirsty for blood! "
"No, those who are about to pay are all high-quality customers, and they never delay." The servant girl smiled, "So, you can still squander the rest of your vacation time very easily."
Sakata Kinshi felt as if his heart had been shot by an arrow, and his expression stiffened.
He sighed inwardly, then glanced at Manager Xiong Ye's child, who had been reborn, and suddenly said seriously, "Sir Manager, please reduce the rest of my vacation time to three months. I want to buy some more things."
"Okay." The servant girl smiled slightly.
Even Black Soul Envoys were guests of the club — it was just a special case.
…
…
A corner of the gate had been broken — this was probably caused by the aftermath of Sakata Kinshi's attack that had cut down the castle.
The gate was located under the ancient castle, in other words, inside the mountain.
Seeing that the aftermath of the attack had damaged the place to this extent, Lian Zhen and Hakata both fell silent at the same time.
After a long time, Hakata suddenly said, "Sometimes, I really envy the guy in that shop."
Lian Zhen looked at Hakata with some surprise, only to hear Hakata say faintly, "This kind of special power to recklessly release great power in the Lord's Realm without fear of the Lord's Realm's Will coming to find you … Don't you envy it?"
"Let's go in," Lian Zhen said quickly, and then went straight in through the broken gate.
Its body did not have a physical body, so it could pass through it directly. At this time, Orochi had to spend a lot of effort to get into this broken hole — but it was obviously worth it.
There was a dazzling array of treasures in front of his eyes.
"I didn't expect the Takizawa Family to have collected so many good things …" Hakata's eyes lit up at this time. He went straight to the corner of the treasure room and picked up a glass container.
"Lava Fire Lotus … This kind of extremely masculine thing is rare in modern society." Hakata clicked his tongue, "This is probably dug out from the volcanic fire vein of this country."
"The Takizawa Family is finished. These things have become ownerless." Lian Zhen said indifferently, "You and I will each take half of the things here."
"No problem." Hakata smiled casually.
If it wasn't for the fact that he had bumped into the people in the shop today and was given a fright, today would have been a pretty lucky day.
Not to mention the treasures in the treasure room — along the way, Hakata had plundered many souls of the Takizawa Family members who had not dissipated yet!
After digesting these souls, the injuries he suffered after coming out of Yan Wuyue's world would be about 40 to 50 percent recovered.
"What's this?" Lian Zhen suddenly stopped and pointed at a brocade box — the reason why Lian Zhen was curious was that the words engraved on the brocade box seemed to be from the Pre-Qin Dynasty of Hua nation.
"Let me see." Hakata walked over, opened the brocade box, and took out the things inside.
There was a handwritten letter and a rolled up animal skin — these two were old monsters, so it was obviously easy for them to decipher the ancient words on the handwritten letter.
"Brother Lian Zhen, is this the map of Qin Shihuang's mausoleum that the Takizawa Family said they had?" Hakata's eyes lit up as he stared at his fellow sufferer.
As he said that, Hakata stared at the content of the handwritten letter. "It's actually … the Pearl of Marquis Sui!"
"The Pearl of Marquis Sui … the emperor's item that is almost as famous as the Jade Annulus of He Clan?" Lian Zhen opened his mouth in surprise, then glanced at the treasure room of the Takizawa Family. "If it's true, it's probably the most valuable thing here."
"More than that …" Hakata took a deep breath. "Brother Lian Zhen, do you know the origin of the Pearl of Marquis Sui?"
"It's said that when Marquis Sui was traveling, he encountered a giant snake that was cut in half and ordered people to save it. Not long after, the giant snake entered his dream and gave him the pearl to repay his kindness. "Lian Zhen said without thinking." What? The Pearl of Marquis Sui has other origins? "
"It's a treasure of our Xiangliu Family …" Hakata grasped the animal skin map in his hand. "The giant snake that was saved by Marquis Sui was the direct descendant of our Xiangliu Family's ancestor. And this pearl was bestowed by our ancestor … It originally belonged to Gonggong! "
"It belonged to Gonggong, the Water God …" Lian Zhen opened his mouth wide!
…
…
The fire had died down, and only some embers were still burning in some small corners.
The club maid was now writing something with her finger on the forehead of the boy who had been restored by Physical Creation. It was a black pattern like a lotus.
Sakata Kinshi watched silently until You Ye's finger left the boy's forehead. Then he heaved a sigh of relief. "I'm afraid only Mr. Steward can do such delicate work."
"According to your request, I've sealed the boy in this seal." You Ye said indifferently, "When the boy can bear it, the seal will be released automatically."
Kinshi Sakata nodded. According to his original intention, he wanted to end the child with his own hands, but in the end, the child had a strong will to live.
"Kintaro, since you don't intend to continue sleeping and use the rest of your holiday in a sober manner, then you'll be in charge of taking care of this child." You Ye smiled faintly.
"Me?" Sakata Kinshi was stunned.
The servant girl said matter-of-factly, "Of course. I'm afraid the boy doesn't know how much power he can exert with his current body. If he doesn't handle it well, it may cause chaos … He needs a supervisor. There's no one more suitable than you. "
"Isn't it all because of you …" Sakata Kinshi muttered in a low voice.
"Oh, Kintaro, what are you talking about?"
"No, no!" Sakata Kinshi quickly shook his head and said seriously, "I just think it's a good decision … Well, it's really a good one."
"Then I'll leave it to you." You Ye smiled and turned away.
Sakata Kinshi suddenly said, "Director, don't I need to meet the new boss now?"
"Master said at the beginning that he'll wait for the Black Souls to wake up."
Sakata Kinshi was startled, and then asked, "Then, Uncle Manager is …"
"Sakata Kinshi." The servant girl suddenly called out Sakata Kinshi's full name.
This made Sakata Kinshi straighten his body and subconsciously answer, "Yes!"
You Ye looked back and said softly, "We only have this master now, so the new boss is naturally him. Do you understand?"
"Yes, yes …"
"What an obedient child." Only then did the servant girl leave, satisfied.
Looking at the disappearing figure, Sakata Kintoshi let out a long sigh and muttered, "This Head Steward is really not an ordinary kind of loyal …"
Sakata Kinshi scratched his head, then sat down and closed his eyes, as if waiting for something.
After a long time, a little fluorescent light flew in from all directions, and then slowly gathered in front of Sakata Kinshi.
This was another service he had purchased — collecting the consciousness of Manager Xiong Ye that had dissipated between heaven and earth but had not been completely annihilated.
The fluorescent light in front of him gradually turned into a human figure. It was Sakata Kinshi … No, it was the manager Natsuya Suzuki was familiar with, Xiong Ye.
"Manager …"
Manager Xiong Ye looked at Sakata Kinshi with a smile and did not speak.
Sakata Kinshi suddenly asked, "Manager, there's a question I've been wondering … Why did you pick me up at that time? To you, I'm just a stranger, right? "
He whispered, "Probably because you felt that there was no way to throw me away? You're like a stray cat that's about to freeze to death. "
"Stray cat?"
"To me, you're like a stray cat that's about to freeze to death." 'Xiong Ye' smiled, "It's really hard to bear to leave you."
"Are you … an idiot?" Sakata Kinshi muttered to himself.
"Then, I'll leave this child to you." 'Xiong Ye's body began to slowly dissipate — after all, it was just a collection of consciousness that was about to be annihilated, and it could not be maintained for long.
… …
In the end, 'Xiong Ye' made a drinking gesture, "I really want to have a drink with you again, Suzuki."
"Bastard … Go!"
