Chapter 106 Chapter 106 “Use this.” Saul…

"Use this." Saul pulled a bead from his clothes and spread it out in his hands. His eyes were serious and solemn. He said with a serious face, "This is a curse called the Rat in the Wall."

There was no need to say much. Just hearing the name, Gideon's eyes widened immediately, he took a deep breath, felt a deep chill, and took a big step back, trying to keep some distance, just like a frail person who was terrified to hear that there was an infectious patient standing in front of him.

He covered his mouth and nose, looked at the bead carefully, and his whole body froze. His face turned slightly green, and his pupils became darker, as if he had been in the dark for too long, or as if he was frightened, and his eyes showed it. He couldn't control it.

"A rat in the wall?" he muttered to himself, repeating it over and over again. His face began to turn pale, like a man who suddenly learned that he was going to die soon, feeling as if he had been hit by a slap in the face.

"That's right," Saul nodded. Seeing that his expression was not good, Saul withdrew his curse to prevent him from focusing on the next matter. He warned him seriously, "This is not a joke!"

Gideon blinked, slowly came to his senses, and put his hand down. His face gradually turned red due to urgency and tension, like a rapidly boiling iron ball, about to squeak and scream and emit smoke.

"Such an important thing," Gideon frowned, wanting to speak but stopping himself. He was very worried, and his eyes swept across the other person. "You're just carrying it with you like this? Isn't that a bit too careless? What if it accidentally breaks?"

What if you accidentally infect yourself? What if you accidentally infect me? What if you accidentally kill me? Don't hurt me! Stay away from me! This is terrifying!

Your clothes don't look like they can hold this bead. You'd better find a way to get rid of it quickly! Don't let others get killed with you!

Gideon walked back and forth with a frown on his face, turning around and around. Sweat began to form on his forehead, and he didn't know what to say.

"Don't be so nervous," Saul waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "I have strict protection measures. The curse won't fall out easily, and it won't be broken easily."

A determined sneer crossed his face. Perhaps he gained confidence from the weaker and lower-ranking Deep Diver before him. He held his head high and said confidently, "What you need to do is simple. Find me a suitable place to plant the curse, and then leave with me. That's all."

He used a commanding tone, but Gideon was not convinced. He stopped with a frown, turned around and looked at Saul, very confused.

How could someone carry such a dangerous item and act so confidently, so carelessly, as if enjoying themselves? It's not that you can't enjoy yourself, but is it okay to do so? It's like playing with a lit bomb! Isn't this dangerous? Isn't this terrifying? Shouldn't this be a cause for concern? What exactly is this person doing? What is he doing?

Gideon closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm his anger: Maybe the person in front of him was a brainless idiot, so it was not surprising that he did such a thing.

What's more, no matter whether he is really the messenger of Cthulhu or fake, he is not as strong as Bai Tianming who is not far away. Judging from his appearance, he should not have seen Bai Tianming.

No wonder they were so confident, no wonder they were so self-righteous, no wonder they were giving orders like that, as if there was no one else to command, to get the other deep divers out of here. It was ridiculous.

Gideon opened his eyes and gave up his original idea. He had planned to take any important items from the other party and let them leave as soon as possible without causing trouble. Now it seems that this is not feasible.

Because the other side treats him as a subordinate and will not accept his command, no matter what his intention is, the result will be the same.

Besides, the curse was so dangerous that he didn't want to touch it. Carrying it on him would only bring him trouble. The opponent didn't care and might have a way to be immune to it, but he couldn't not care.

Because he had no way to guarantee that he would not be affected in any way when he encountered the curse!

He knew himself very well. If it were him, and he came into contact with the broken curse, he would definitely die a miserable death, and even bring harm to the people around him, and this land would not be spared.

Everything will end in the worst possible way.

He has no ability to end this matter at all, so he should not make any decision on his own.

If he needed help from anyone, there was no doubt that the first person he would think of would be Bai Tianming. In his heart, Bai Tianming was like a towering lighthouse, a statue that could never be toppled, and a line that could never be erased.

So he quietly sent a message to Bai Tianming using a secret and special method without using a communicator.

Bai Tianming sensed what he was about to say:

I met a stranger. He was the same as you described. He was also carrying a dangerous item called the Rat in the Wall. What should I do?

Bai Tianming also knew this thing.

The rats in the wall is a curse, usually in the form of a ball. Once this ball breaks, the curse will burst out and affect the surroundings. The curse will manifest as a large number of rats growing in the soil and houses. No matter how hard you try, you can't get rid of them. The entire land will become unusable. In the end, the cursed place will become a rat paradise.

It sounds very bad. In fact, if someone is really cursed like this, it is best to leave your home first, then choose a new house to live in, and never look back, otherwise, you will die among rats sooner or later.

Because this curse also affects humans. If people move away slowly, their mental state will be affected and they will think that there are many rats following them.

Although this is usually the case, countless verifications will not produce any results. The same will happen if other people are invited. Therefore, the final result of the person's mental state being affected is suicide.

"Bring the person to me," Bai Tianming relayed the message to Gideon, his tone calm and composed as always, "I'll handle it."

Gideon was affected and gradually calmed down. He suddenly felt that it didn't matter if the sky fell. He secretly replied, "Okay."

"What kind of place do you need?" Gideon pretended to think for a moment, lowered his head slightly to hide his expression, and asked Saul in front of him respectfully.

Saul didn't notice anything wrong with his respect. He just felt that his identity had finally been confirmed, so he started to do what he should do. He swaggered to a seat and sat down as if he was at home, crossed his legs like a smoker about to light a cigarette in a smoke-free place, sneered proudly, tilted his head and said to Gideon, "Do I need to explain this? You really don't use your brain at all!"

He shook his legs, like a victorious general standing on a high platform, addressing the tens of thousands of soldiers looking up at him. He shook his red cape behind him and, with the same attitude he usually used towards his subordinates, said with a forced condescension, "I want a safe and quiet place, preferably one where no one can be easily influenced."

He looked around, as if he were picking out peanuts and melon seeds at the market, raised his hand and pointed, saying casually and disdainfully, "I think this garden is good. You can just look for it there. It saves me the trouble of going out."

Obviously, he is more important than anything else to him. He is not willing to take an extra step, spend more time, or sacrifice himself for the mission or anything else.

Gideon silently gathered information from the other party's various actions, nodded, and calmly replied, "I happened to have seen such a place when I came here. I can take you there right now. All I ask is that you come with me. Once you see it, you will know. It will definitely meet your requirements."

In fact, he didn't know whether it was compliant or not, but he had to say it was compliant now, because if he said it was not compliant, he couldn't take the person with him. As for what would happen after he took him there, he had no control over it.

It wasn't that he was trying to shirk responsibility; it was just that the thought of bringing the person to Bai Tianming made him feel relieved. In his mind, no matter what the problem was, Bai Tianming could easily handle it, so what was there to worry about? Why bother?

If he added unnecessary details, that would be bad. He didn't want to cause trouble for others, especially Bai Tianming. In his heart, Bai Tianming was already infinitely brilliant, almost like a monument that would never fall.

It is hard to say whether Bai Tianming himself really believes this, but he firmly believes in this matter and no one can change it. Even if Bai Tianming personally denies it, he will not believe it.

He would simply think, "The leader is truly a leader. He's so humble, gentle, and capable. If he's not a leader, then who is?" A leader isn't just someone irritable and incompetent! He would follow the leader forever! As long as the leader saved his life, he wouldn't look back. Absolutely not.

"Then go!" Saul saw that Gideon was so respectful and didn't realize that he had any rebellious intentions. He stood up slowly, like a noble lady attending an afternoon tea party, even though he had no skirt, was not bound by any constraints, and did not have a heavy wig.

I am so noble and elegant, he must admire me, envy me, and wish to serve me forever, right? Saul thought proudly, glancing at Gideon, but looking away before he could see clearly.

Because in Saul's heart, noble and elegant people would not turn their heads around, and nobles would not casually cast their eyes on people of lower status than themselves. Even if it was necessary, they would try not to do so.

In that case, he can't reveal himself here.
