Chapter 5 Don't Be a Riddler (Xiao Chapter, 4200)

"...This proves that you can see it, professor, I'm serious."

After being answered directly by Su Zhou, Yelena's voice seemed to be gritting her teeth.

But then, she stretched out her slightly frown and said sincerely: "The Zhuguang Cult Team must be strange this time. I didn't plan to invite them over in my mission plan, otherwise I wouldn't call you professor--Master Suiguang was like a prophet of the uncertainty. He was with me on some excuse, and after knowing my mission, he said that he could help repair and then take the initiative to ask to join the exploration team."

"There are such generous conditions that normal people cannot refuse. Strong rejection is suspicious, not to mention that an alchemist is indeed a good thing, but now if you think about it carefully, Master Suiguang must have known our plan long ago and is ready to enter the ruins with us in a legitimate way."

At this point, the female knight's expression became cold.

She stretched out her hand, pointed her thumb backward, and pointed to the camp - to be precise, the iron coffin in the center of the camp - and sneered sarcastically: "And his purpose is the ancestor girl in the iron coffin - even deeper than we imagined!"

"And you probably saw it too? The demonized sedative he injected into Adama has a problem. No sedative can have the effect so quickly. Your apprentice is also a patient with demonized disease, and you are also an alchemist, so naturally you know the most."

Yelena's words were sincere and urgent, and she did not lie.

During the time when Gasha first entered the orphanage, he needed to take medicine to stabilize the spread of demonization.

Taking care of a young demonizer was a time of memory for Svetre, even if there were missing memories.

Su Zhou knew very well that the tranquilizer that resisted the madness of demonization needed to be fused with the body, and at least an hour later, it would be gradually feedback to the "soul".

The potion that Master Suiguang almost calmed Adamama in an instant was either an epoch-making new sedative agent—an instant effect, no side effects, and could restore the magical patients in a crazy beast-like state to normal.

Otherwise, it is the liquidized "soul source substance". Simply put, it is a large number of pure soul condensates.

Of course, the former is impossible. With that thing, the Zhuguang Cult has long become the supreme commander of all demonized people. The Asmodai Empire is simply a native of the gods: the number of people is large and free from the entire empire, and the demonized patients who are extraordinary can join forces to promote the emperor's twelve armored guard regiments and twenty-eight armies within three days.

The latter is just a drinking poison to quench thirst. Instant injection of a large amount of soul source substances can indeed temporarily restore the soul of the dirty demonizer to normal. However, after a period of time, when these soul source substances are also polluted, the demonizer will die due to excessive burning.

And... before death, the demonized will burst out with incredible power, far beyond his current realm.

This is completely in conflict with what Master Suiguang said that he will send Adama to the Zhuguang Cult in the future to recuperate.

"We need to join forces, Professor, Master Suiguang repeatedly stopped Had from killing Adama, obviously in order to use him as a knife and use the last crazy time of the demonizer to kill us."

After seeing Su Zhou's thoughtful expression, Yelena felt that the bargaining chips were enough and the reasons were very sufficient.

She smiled and stretched out her hand to the white-haired old man: "He has other intentions, is strong and has a malice - the Zhuguang Cult is most keen on exploring the remains of his ancestors, not to mention that they are no longer the group of saints who passed away from Zhuguang and his followers four hundred years ago."

"To ensure the advantages of technology and the exclusiveness of the secret, these alchemists can do anything."

Su Zhou narrowed his eyes. Instead of reaching out his hand, he nodded slightly, then shook his head, and then whispered: "Okay - but Ms. Yelena, even if Master Suiguang really plans to catch us all in one place, will you allow me to live again?"

"Not to mention that I am just a small professor of ancient civilization and a third-rate alchemist. I now know the secret of this ruins and see the living ancestors. I do not think I can stay out of it, but I do not think I can survive."

"What's more, joining forces with you? I don't think I have the qualifications to deal with a master of the sect who is at the top of the Heart Light."

"A little professor of ancient civilization? The best scholar of ruins in the south is so humble, then there are not many big ones in the empire."

Shaking his head exaggeratedly, Yelena raised her index finger meaningfully and pointed to it: "'We' need you. Since you know the ancestors' girls, you must also understand our purpose. How great do you think your value is to us? Will we waste the most valuable knowledge like this?"

"What's more, aren't you maintaining an orphanage? The reward for exploring the remains is far from enough to maintain your good deeds, but believe me, as long as you join us, it's okay to expand your orphanage tenfold."

“…”

Su Zhou wanted to sneer and mocked the other party for why he had not opened ten orphanages before.

But soon, he remembered something.

——The tax officer who was too coincidental, just the right reward, Yelena who happened to appear and a mysterious task that matched his superficial professionalism.

Also, the power behind this woman.

Su Zhou knew himself well. He knew that he was not smart, but he was definitely not stupid.

Xiguang Orphanage... If Yelena did not lie, the forces behind her valued the knowledge of "Professor Svedre" from the very beginning.

Then they can't be able to monitor the orphanage without sending people.

So after a while of silence, Su Zhou said: "What do I need to do?"

"Smart people, professors. You don't need to do much, nor are you dangerous. You just need to interfere with the operation of Master Suiguang's armor at critical moments. It's good in a moment. Only you who are both alchemists and have studied in the Zhuguang Cult Team - we know you can do it."

The smile on Yelena's face became even happier. She stretched out her hand again, and this time Su Zhou also stretched out her hand.

After the two shook hands, the female knight turned around and left, while Su Zhou said in a deep voice: "Your boss..."

"Smart people don't ask this question. Professor, you shouldn't ask, and I won't say it."

Slightly stopped, she interrupted Su Zhou's inquiry: "Also, remember to let Xiao Jiasha and Xiao Luoya get away from the camp later - that's not where they should be close to."

Yelena's footsteps then rang again, and the knight disappeared at the corner of the corridor, and the wind barrier used to block the sound at the entrance of the passage slowly dissipated.

Su Zhou stood there with a serious expression on his face, while Gasha and Luoya both stood behind Su Zhou with a confused look on their faces.

No, it should be said that it was just Loya-Gasha who seemed to understand a little bit. His face turned pale and he asked softly: "Professor... everyone in the hospital..."

"fine."

Coming back to his senses, Su Zhou smiled and shook his head. He put his hands behind him, and his red eyes were faintly glowing in the darkness of the ruins: "I won't let everyone have something to do.

"Dean...What did Aunt Yelena say just now?"

Loya was full of confusion. He was indeed talented and could assemble alchemy equipment at a young age. He successfully condensed his soul, but in terms of human relationships and socializing with people, Loya was still very well protected. Gasha and the former Professor Svedre did not let him participate in these things.

"Um."

When Su Zhou heard this doubt, he thought about it and said seriously: "To put it bluntly, he is a person with no intention, who wants to bring me into the group and deal with another person with no intention.

"After that being said, do these people not speak riddles?"

Sighing, he turned his head and seriously reminded his two children: "I'll say it again, Gasha, Luoya, when you grow up, don't be such riddle people!"

"Yes! Remember!"

The two children's voices were very fast and powerful, and they obviously hated this behavior.

The next day ended soon, and except for communicating with each other during dinner before rest, the members of the exploration team did not communicate with each other.

Of course, on the surface, no one knows how many times the communications in private like Su Zhou and Yelena have occurred.

Master Sui Guang has never left his armor. After all, the alchemist's body is very fragile. As long as it is not in a safe place, the alchemist of the Zhuguang Cult will not leave it.

Adama was also stunned by his luggage, with saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth. Since injecting the sedative agent, although he had barely recovered a little bit of his human consciousness, the damage to his soul by demonization is irreversible. It is impossible for him to often say some cold jokes that can reduce the temperature like the earth-type spellcaster at the time.

The bonfire was burning quietly, and another night passed.

On the third day, this day was still just an ordinary exploration, and Su Zhou and his party did not find any clues to leave the ruins.

However, after they returned to the camp, they received two quite unexpected news.

[Everyone, I have found a passage outside the ruins.]

Master Suiguang's mechanical sound also had a rare joy. Su Zhou could even imagine the smile of a white-haired scholar in the armor: [The passage is located at the ceiling at the top of the northeast, where the mountain collapsed and a crack was exposed. It was narrow, and only children could climb out.]

[But it is not difficult to expand it according to our strength.]

"She's going to wake up."

Yelena's news was even simpler. She pointed her hand at the iron coffin, her tone with a little anger: "We cannot restart after the static position of our ancestors is opened. Now she is about to wake up. What should we do? A living and moving ancestor, in such a dangerous environment - if she is injured a little, we will all die and not be able to compensate!"

At this point, she glared at Master Suiguang and Hard fiercely: "If you hadn't insisted on opening it up, things wouldn't have been so troublesome!"

"What?"

The news on both sides was quite sudden. Even if Had was glared at by Yelena, he did not react and even became anxious: "What should we do now?"

Cold salad.

Su Zhou turned his head directly to look at the sarcophagus. Indeed, he could sense that the soul in the coffin had begun to roar.

The soul of ordinary people is like rippled colored glass: its transparent nature, the color of source energy, and emotional fluctuations. Just look at the soul and you can understand a person's general situation.

But for the girl in the coffin, or the native noun of Aion World, her soul is very strange, showing an opaque, impurity-free pure silver color, and releasing a very dazzling light.

At this moment, this impure silver light is waving, releasing a sacred, pure, peaceful and joyful wave.

——It’s very beautiful.

Nodding slightly, Su Zhou had basically never seen such a soul, even if he himself was not "pure good", so it was impossible to have such a clean soul.

Because I don't have it, I admire it.

But there are other people who can also perceive the beauty of this "soul" with Su Zhou at a glance, and their reaction is much greater than that of Su Zhou.

Because I don't have it, I am greedy.

Crack, the sound of joint friction sounded, and the giant who had been sitting beside him stood up.

The demonized people will desire pure souls because they are too dirty and the souls eroded by high-density sources are as decaying as apples that are empty by ants, so they need something to fill them.

“Hungry.”

Simple words. In the past two days of exploration, Adama has not eaten. He has been sitting next to his luggage, staring at the ground dumbly, muttering some giant words that only his hometown can say.

Not to mention whether he will eat in this state, he had finished his own dry food a few days ago.

No one can give him his food, even Master Suiguang.

It is better to say that letting the beast live and hunger is his purpose.

Standing up, Adama immediately became the center of everyone's attention, and he himself stared at the iron coffin in front of him. His throat was squirming violently, making a sound of wild beasts. His tall body also seemed a little hunched, making him look no longer like a human, but a giant beast walking upright.

"Gasha, take Loya back and stay away."

Sighing, Su Zhou signaled his apprentice to stay away. What will happen next is obviously not suitable for children and is extremely dangerous.

Adama will surely die. Whether it is simply the complete madness in the end of the demonization disease, or as Yelena said, being protected by Master Suiguang as a weapon to deal with others, there will not be much difference in the result - he will surely die, and he will definitely die at the hands of his past teammates.

"What else are you crazy guys going to do!"

Hard stood up immediately and stood in front of Adama.

He had already drawn out his sword, and the cold air formed a halo with his body as the center. The swordsman said loudly: "Look at you like this, even the master's sedative is completely useless, right? Even if I do good things today, I will send you on your way home!"

Just as Hard blocked the demonized giant, a faint green light flashed deep in Adama's eyes. He growled, revealing lion-like fangs, and then punched out with extraordinary speed, bringing out a thunderous and fierce wind and shock waves, and blasted towards Hard's head.

"Varied……?!"

The Frost Sword Technique in the north can indeed slow down the enemy's speed, but when faced with such speed, the swordsman was obviously unable to do so. He exclaimed before he could finish his blow, which made Hard unable to subconsciously raise his sword to block his head.

But it doesn't make sense - the giant's bloodline plus demonization, Adama's attack has surpassed the speed of sound, and it is not something that only Hard of the Linghui level can resist.
