Chapter 269 Brass Book
In the pure white metal room, the puppet man's words blocked Murray's retreat, making Murray dare not refuse at all.
It is not a wise idea to cheat on someone who is recommended by the devil.
After a moment's silence, Murray raised his head and looked at the puppet man opposite him.
"What do you want?"
The puppet seemed to have already thought about what he wanted. He tapped the heavy table with his fingers and said, "You are the chairman of Taixi. Naturally, I want something related to Taixi. In the largest and oldest library in Taixi, there is an ancient brass book. Its name is the Book of Hades."
"Legend has it that it is a sacred artifact left in the human world by Hades, the ancient god of the West."
The puppet man retracted his brown finger, slowly looked at the fingertips, and commented: "This is a good treasure, but I want you to destroy it within three months."
Murray frowned. He had no idea what the person in front of him wanted to do. If it was a sacred artifact, why did he want to destroy it?
He frowned and asked, "What does this book have to do with Hades?"
The puppet smiled, looked at Murray with his scarlet eyes and said, "This is your second question. Are you sure you want to ask it?"
Murray swallowed and shook his head. In the end, he did not ask any more questions. Instead, he changed the topic and said:
"A demon asked me to bring you a message."
At this point, Murray looked at the puppet's expression and said, "The devil is always happy to serve you."
But he was destined to be disappointed.
The puppet man just nodded calmly and said, "I know."

After Murray left, Lin Qingsheng slowly took off the pure white Nirvana mask. He and Daoyi were the ones who escorted Murray to see Bai Xiaosheng, and they also witnessed all the conversations just now.
"Is the devil related to Bai Xiaosheng?" Lin Qingsheng's eyes were full of confusion. Murray actually said that he wanted to say hello to Bai Xiaosheng on behalf of the devil. Could it be that Bai Xiaosheng is related to the devil?
Dao paused and said, "There has always been a rumor in the West that the devil has some connection with the East, but no one can be sure that the two are related."
"But the devil's contractual behavior is indeed very similar to Bai Xiaosheng's, with the same cunning and the same transactional behavior."
"But we can't judge the connection just based on this. We can only know that the demons are very respectful to Bai Xiaosheng. There is nothing strange about this because there are few extraordinary people in the world who don't respect Bai Xiaosheng, and the demons are a race that believes in the law of the jungle."
Hearing this, Lin Qingsheng also let down his guard and said, "How come those Westerners are involved with the devil? They are not good people."
Lin Qingsheng had also heard from Dao Yi and other people that demons were notorious supernatural beings in the West.
Daoyi shook his head upon hearing this and said, "It doesn't matter to them. Whether they can survive Bai Xiaosheng's promise is still unclear."
Daoyi raised his head and said, "We now need to focus more on the ancient star."
"The new battlefield is above the ancient star. Try to locate it on Taisui or Zhenxing. This will be the best result for us."
Lin Qingsheng asked: "Why this place?"
Daoyi narrowed his eyes and said, "Because the Sun Star is the entrance to the Ancient Star Road, Chenxing will face the first wave of impact when the Ancient Star Road opens, and will face the 'Heaven' directly."
………
On the Mediterranean coast, Murray returned here immediately after receiving the news. He was so anxious that he even made a confidential phone call on the plane and asked people to explore the Caucasus Mountains.
As for the other side of the ocean, Murray will consider whether to take them to play based on the situation. Now it is no longer the world of the other side of the ocean.
On his way home, Murray, who was sitting in the back seat of a low-key black car, suddenly felt someone patting his shoulder.
"Did you bring the message?"
Murray turned around suddenly, only to see that the person sitting next to him was none other than the demon Mammon. He hadn't even transformed into a human yet. His red skin and uncovered horns revealed his demonic identity.
As if sensing Murray's concerns, Mammon said slowly, "Don't worry, they can't see me or hear me. From their perspective, you are the only one on the vehicle."
These words made Murray both frightened and relieved. He was frightened because he could hide it from his driver and defense personnel, so he could kill himself. He was relieved because no one had discovered that he had made a deal with the devil.
"Haven't you settled the score for cheating me yet?" Murray said coldly.
"When did I ever cheat you?" Mammon spread his hands.
"You never told me that the know-it-all gentleman also has to pay a price for answering questions," Murray said coldly.
The demon Mammon laughed when he heard this and said, "Everything in the world has its gains and losses. If you don't even understand this, why are you still the chairman?"
Murray was speechless for a moment, but there was a hint of anxiety in the eyes of the demon Mammon. He opened his mouth and asked again: "I'll ask you again, did you get my message across?"
Murray frowned, and the demon Mammon showed a little anxiety.
Is it so important for the devil to give that person a message?
Murray slowly said, "Here I am. Do you demons have any relationship with this man? Why are you so concerned about him?"
Hearing Murray's words, the demon Mammon breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is not something you should know."
"Now that you've brought him here, has he said anything?"
"He just said he knew?" Murray said honestly, and then asked, "What do you want him to say?"
Murray felt like there was some secret between the two.
But the demon Mammon seemed to be terrified when he heard this and said, "Of course, whatever that person says is what it is."
This shocked Murray even more. It seemed that the know-it-all gentleman had a very high status.
After he finished speaking, the demon Mammon seemed to realize that Murray had observed his expression. He glanced at Murray and said:
"As my loyal customer, I must remind you to pay a hundred times more attention to the request made by that person, otherwise..."
The demon Mammon paused and said, "You will die!"
As the words fell, the demon Mammon instantly turned into a ball of fire and burned, then disappeared into the air.
The car is still the same car, and it seems that Murray is the only one in it.
"Will he die?"
Murray frowned, muttered these two words, then picked up his dedicated mobile phone and made a call.
"Do you remember what I told you to do?"
Murray's expression became serious, and he said, "Raise the level by three more levels and execute it according to the highest level."
After hanging up the phone, Murray narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, "The bronze book of Hades? This thing sounds very dangerous."
“Let’s go to the Caucasus Mountains first.”
