"Have you seen him?" Shi Daochang stood by the path and looked at the castle not far away.
Jiang Hua nodded:
"When we went to attack the hunting ceremony, he was responsible for contacting us on behalf of the Han family. I feel that Marn has a secret goodwill towards the Salvation Alliance, and he also took good care of us during the operation."
Duan Shan, who was standing behind them, said with some caution:
"Don't take it lightly. The sons of the gods are in the same camp as us now just because of their interests. If the benefits of standing opposite us are greater, these bastards will definitely turn around and stab us without hesitation."
Shi Daochang agreed with Duan Shan:
"She has a point, we've seen these types of characters before, they are very good at pretending to be everyone's friend, but in fact they are hyenas that smell carrion, you have to understand...
"It is impossible for the Sons of the Gods to choose an intermediary worthy of our trust."
The selection of Shi Daochang and Enneng has proven that he is a loyal lackey of the sons of gods.
Jiang Hua did not refute.
If he didn't know what Ma En did in the hunting ground, he would definitely not trust him.
And that's enough. Even if Ma En didn't ask for confidentiality, he was not very willing to tell them the truth.
The purpose of his coming here is to determine whether Ma En has the purchasing power to become a customer. He is not here to ask him to help the Salvation Alliance. They have already stepped half-foot on the edge of the cliff, and all they can do now is continue to delay the fall. That’s all.
If things really turn around, it has nothing to do with them.
The only person who can reverse the situation is the Skywalker in prison - and the current Salvation Alliance has no way to change Qin Luan's situation.
Several people slowly walked to the front of the castle.
Jiang Hua stepped forward and knocked on the door.
No response.
But the door was not locked, as if the owner of the castle knew that guests would come to visit him at any time.
He pushed open the door.
"It seems that living alone in a castle is not a smart move." Duan Shan said, "And people with abilities can't just hire servants to look after the door for themselves."
"I don't like the excitement." Ma En appeared on the stairs at some point, "You are finally here."
This castle is not anyone's residence, but a transit point for the Salvation Camarilla, a branch of the Anomaly Control Bureau, to travel to reality.
This place can also be used as a daily temporary residence, but before that, the Gowen State Investigation Department must be completely destroyed.
Shi Daochang said:
"We are here to negotiate on behalf of all members of the Salvation Alliance in Gowen State."
Ma En pointed to the sofa in the hall:
"sit down.
"Let's talk about dealing with the Investigation Department?"
Shi Daochang and Duan Shan glanced at Jiang Hua, and then sat down opposite Ma En.
Ma En said:
"All the regular forces of the Gowen State Investigation Department were killed in the last hunting ceremony..."
"Do you know who did this?" Duan Shan suddenly asked, "Any clues would be helpful."
Jiang Hua's answer was that they didn't know anything at all, but Duan Shan still looked forward to Ma En coming up with some useful clues, because that meant a potential high-level member of the Salvation Alliance.
If the unknown member of the Salvation Alliance is still in Gowen State, they will have the upper hand in the alliance with the Free Gods, and may even become the leader.
But Ma En just shook his head:
"I don't know, but if he is still in Gowen State, he should have received the message from the Children of the Moon, but you are the first members of the Salvation Alliance to come to me."
Shi Daochang and Duan Shan were both a little disappointed. In that case, the high-level ability user was probably no longer here. The members of the Salvation Alliance would also keep moving to avoid exposing their identities. Maybe they just passed by.
It's also possible that Ma En wasn't telling the truth, since he was a Son of the Gods after all.
Ma En paused and then said:
"They have all been killed. The best time to take action was some time ago, but the Children of the Moon had not arrived yet. Killing them would only allow the Federal Investigation Department to get a new manager, which has no practical significance.
"We need the Children of the Moon to sacrifice their souls to the Moon God and create a ritual of secrecy in the state of Gowen."
Shi Daochang interrupted and asked:
"I don't understand magic at all. How can I be sure that what you didn't say is true?"
"You don't need to be sure." Ma En said, "There must be members in the Salvation Alliance who understand magic. This ceremony will be carried out in the entire federation at the same time, and they will definitely convince your companions.
"And even if they just join forces to attack the Investigation Department, it will be beneficial to you. If this is a lie, there is no need for them to say so."
According to Ma En's speculation, this moon ritual should be the same as the hunting ritual. It has the function of creating a secret night. It can also enhance the power of the moon god and may even advance his escape from the Southern Federation.
The worst thing may be that the ritual does not have the function of keeping secrets at night. How did he hide it from the high-ranking members of the Salvation Alliance? It is not surprising that a fifth-level abnormal entity can do this.
But even so, this is still a heavy blow to the Federation and will make the Sons of the Moon an enemy of the Federation. This is why Ma En actually believes that no matter what secrets the Moon Ritual has, it must have the function of hiding the Salvation Alliance.
Because by then, both the Moon Children and the Salvation Alliance will become enemies of the Federation.
And if the Children of the Moon don't want to face the Federation's revenge alone, then helping their future allies in advance is the best way, and in addition to them, the Salvation Alliance itself will also protect the existence of Nightfall.
A wise man will not watch his enemy's enemy die.
Shi Daochang nodded and agreed with Ma En:
"You're right, what's the situation in the Investigation Department now?"
Ma En said:
"The intelligence I have now shows that the Investigation Department is no longer in its weakest state. Nine Sons of Flame from all over the Southern Federation have gathered in Gowen State. The leader of them is a Flame Elector named Ren Yan.
"He is also our most dangerous enemy."
This elector was similar to the Layton that Ma En saw at that time. He could reach level IV through the descent of gods. He was a difficult opponent for any level III ability user.
Shi Daochang and Duan Shan looked worried at the same time, and the latter asked in disbelief:
"Are you sure Ren Yan is in Gowen Prefecture?"
Ma En nodded:
"This is news from the Son of the Moon. Are there any level IV ability users on your side who can fight him?"
Shi Daochang shook his head:
"No, and we have heard of this Ren Yan before. He is just an ordinary Level III ability user. Duan Shan and I are confident of dealing with him.
"But there are rumors that Ren Yan was once attacked secretly and his heart was broken. But after the God of Fire came, he not only killed the attacker, but also gave his chosen one a intact body after leaving.
"This proves that even a sneak attack at a fatal place may not be able to prevent the God of Flame from descending on him."
This is actually one of the important criteria for judging the strength of a voter.
As long as he can be killed before he comes, it doesn't matter how strong he is after he comes.
The hunter's son that Ma En once killed, as well as most of the other gods' elects, actually do not have this kind of self-healing ability. Even if the god's consciousness can come to the elects before they die completely, they cannot drag their hearts. The broken body continues to fight.
"What about the head?" Ma En asked.
"You don't know?" Duan Shan looked at Ma En suspiciously, "How could the voters seize the opportunity to assassinate so easily? They usually keep their whereabouts hidden, and they may carry some special props to prevent them. assassination.
"The Son of Flame has been assassinated only a handful of times, and no one has the chance to try to destroy the head before the God of Flame can come."
Maybe this time they will have a chance to verify this.
If Ren Yan's location can be known, it should be easy for him to wipe his head if he takes action. The problem is that whether this can prevent the gods from descending is still unknown, and Ren Yan will certainly not expose his whereabouts easily.
Before Qin Luan's defeat, the sons of the gods of this generation did not often have the opportunity to fight. The past few decades had been considered very peaceful in the history of the Southern Federation.
"How many people do you have who can fight?" Ma En asked.
Shi Daochang didn't particularly want to tell the other party even a little bit of information about them. This made him feel like he was exposing his companions to danger, but he also understood that this was the most basic prerequisite for cooperation.
"We have a total of seven level III ability users who can fight." Shi Daochang said, "Duan Shan and I should be the two stronger ones in this operation."
There are a total of fifteen members of the Salvation Alliance in Gowen State, including eight level III ability users and seven level II ability users.
They all come from other cities near Gowen State that failed to prevent the hunting ritual. It is precisely because of this that there are not many low-level ability users. In the city where the hunting ritual is successfully completed, only those who are strong or lucky enough have a chance to escape to safety. zone.
"I am a person with spiritual abilities, but I am not a telepath." Shi Daochang introduced himself, "What I can do includes establishing spiritual links, scanning and searching for spiritual bodies."
And allowing consciousness to transfer between different bodies - this is the ultimate purpose served by those functions.
He didn't even tell his companions that his current body was actually "robbed" from members of the Investigation Department. This was also the reason why he was able to escape that nightmare alone.
After arriving in Gowen Prefecture, he began to search for members of the Salvation Alliance in Gowen Prefecture and gathered them through spiritual links. Duan Shan also got acquainted with him in the process.
Duan Shan took his words and said:
"I can control soil, and my physical fitness has reached level II."
This does not clarify the extent of what she can do. Building earth walls and flooding cities with mudslides can all be described as "manipulating earth."
Ma En did not ask further:
"Our opponents have ten level III ability users on the surface.
“And counting myself and the two Sons of the Moon, we also have the same number of equal combat strengths, and that’s without taking into account the Sons of the Ocean.
"And the opponents are all Sons of Flame. We can prepare for them in advance, but they don't know what your abilities are. Therefore, if we can avoid the situation where Ren Yan is attacked, it shouldn't be difficult to win."
Especially when you are there too.
Shi Daochang was not so optimistic and said:
"Even if we can deal with him..."
A breeze blew through the windows.
Both he and Ma En looked at the door.
A figure with a hazy silver luster passed directly through the iron gate. Li Lingxiao noticed Shi Daochang when he "walked" in.
In the eyes of the Moon Child. He looked like an amorphous white luminous fluid, and some of the liquid condensed into threads floating around the other two members of the Salvation Alliance.
"Aren't you going to hide behind the scenes?" Ma En looked at him and said.
Li Lingxiao said:
"What I said is that we will not be there in person, and it is true that we did not actually appear in front of you."
But in fact, this is not the reason for his appearance.
In fact, normally speaking, the Children of the Moon can hide after meeting the middleman. It is not a safe behavior for spiritual entities to run around, but the premise is that they can monitor them through the eyes of the middleman.
This was also the reason why he and Wang Lingxiao wanted to get close to Ma En at that time. They originally planned to plant a moon bud in his heart, but the other party was unexpectedly cautious, which resulted in them having to appear in front of the members of the Salvation Alliance.
"Are you the Sons of the Moon from Gowen State?" Duan Shan turned her attention from Ma En to him, "Do you have any way to deal with Ren Yan?"
Li Lingxiao looked at her and nodded:
"Of course, once the Sons of Flame enter Level IV, they will undergo a qualitative change. Before that, they still had normal lethal organs, but after entering Level IV, they will be able to turn their entire bodies into flames, and they will no longer have any fatal organs. Injury.
“This is why the chosen ones of the Sons of Flame can still accept divine intervention after being successfully attacked.
"But the brain of the Son of Flame is still very important to them before his arrival. If you can destroy his brain instantly, you can terminate the in-progress arrival.
"Can you do this?"
Shi Daochang replied:
"no problem."
Li Lingxiao nodded:
"We can use psychic power to delay his arrival for a few seconds. All you have to do is destroy his head, but if he successfully completes his arrival...
"We have no way to influence the sons of flames who are in the incarnation state. You will all die at the hands of the god of flames. You only have this one chance."
Shi Daochang looked at the real speaker:
"But how are we going to find him?"
Li Lingxiao said confidently:
“Leave this matter to us and the Children of the Ocean, you just have to be responsible for fighting.
"We will contact you through him after we get this matter sorted out."
He glanced at Marne.
Unfortunately, Ma En didn't know how ridiculous his vigilance was in her own eyes.
Li Lingxiao smiled at them and waved, then his body slowly scattered silver light in the air and disappeared.
Duan Shan looked at where he was standing just now and blinked.
The silver moon is shining in it.
