Chapter 656: Garbled Code
After confirming that Shuster had indeed left this time, Avis continued to study the Beast of Desire.
I don't know whether I should say it's a blessing or a pity. Although the light red mist in the cup is still emerging, the [Beast of Desire] that was born from Cohen's body ultimately stopped at the sixth level.
When the mutation of itself reaches a certain critical point, a strange collapse emerges from deep within the body of the beast of desire from the inside out.
In front of Avis, the huge, twisted and deformed monster exploded like a ball of fireworks, turning into a pile of splattered flesh and blood.
"Because it could not withstand the overly strong power of desire, it collapsed. Was it because the original experimental subject was too weak?"
After removing the magic shield that blocked the flying flesh and blood, Avis stared at the pieces of flesh still wriggling slightly on the ground and fell into deep thought.
There are also some strong experimental subjects here. The Lord of Longying City is still in a coma. With his seventh-level strength, he should be able to withstand the mutation for a longer time.
Initially, Anvis was considering controlling the Lord of Dragon Shadow City, and then using Dragon Shadow City as a base, slowly following this line to find more lawless areas of this type that could provide him with the power of desire.
However, after accidentally coming into contact with this mysterious cult, the City Lord had a more meaningful purpose.
I believe that the Lord of Dragon Shadow City himself would not mind too much about this. After all, although his body in the outside world has undergone changes, his own spiritual consciousness is always immersed in the dream of endless desires.
As long as one is not dead, then in the dream, no matter how crazy and twisted the desire is, it can be realized, although this realization depends on the patient's own cognition.
After observing the many low-level professionals sleeping nearby for a while and making sure that these pieces of meat rich in the power of desire would not cause any other pollution except for direct consumption, Avis, dressed in a black robe, turned and left.
He didn't know since when he had gotten used to this kind of villain-filled scene.
He himself chose to take this path, so he must bear the consequences of his choice. . ….….In the days that followed, everything seemed to have temporarily returned to normal.
There were no major incidents in various parts of the continent. The Lord of Dragon Shadow City still appeared in person every day to manage all the affairs of the city and still held grand carnival banquets on a regular basis.
However, the number of servants in the city lord's mansion suddenly decreased. According to some gossip, the city lord's taste has become heavier recently, and humanoid creatures are no longer enough, and he needs "fluffy" creatures.
When the daily affairs are over, the city lord always goes into the basement of the castle alone for a while and forbids anyone else to approach.
In the basement, a huge monster with a posture that was enough to cause mental pollution, with a crazy smile on its face, was sleeping in the center of a multi-layered protective magic circle.
A large number of twisted dark red tentacles and bubbles were expanding and shrinking on its body. A light red and juicy aura of desire force field continuously emanated from its body surface, and was then blocked by the magic barrier.
Facing this monster, the 'Lord of Dragon Shadow City' expressionlessly turned on a magic crystal instrument next to him, and based on the various analysis and detection charts displayed on it, he recorded the monster's physical condition today.
This research appears to have been going on for some time, as evidenced by earlier records.
Soon, today's record was completed.
After reopening the basement's defensive formation, the 'Lord of Dragon Shadow City' left the basement again, leaving the monster here.
Yes, the current Lord of Dragon Shadow City was played by Anvis through his clone. In such a remote border city, no one could see through his identity.
As for the plaything slaves who were forcibly captured in the City Lord's Mansion, they were summoned by Avis, questioned about their intentions, and then secretly released.
If someone wants to leave, Anweisi will give him some money and then send him to the federal or imperial city he wants to go to. If someone wants to stay and has nowhere to go, he can also stay.
If you want to change a beautiful lady to be your host, Anvis can also help you make the contact.
While working on behalf of the Lord of the Authentic Dragon Cinema City, Anvis found a random excuse and passed on the news that the Marquis were cooperating with a certain alien cult suspected to be related to desire to Duke Carrot.
At the same time, the Man in the Mirror was also using the intelligence network of the Alliance of Glory to investigate the mysterious cult that was cooperating with the marquises.
The Duke attached more importance to this information than Anvis expected, and even took the risk to contact some secret agents in the Marquis' camp.
But to Avis' surprise, even after half a month, the two major camps had only obtained some basic intelligence.
A mysterious cult whose object of faith is related to desire does exist. It is a secret cult called the [Cult of Revelation], which originally originated in the Federation of the Kingdom of Itel and is a branch of the ancient cult [Cult of Praise of the Stars].
The object of their worship is a barefoot female figure whose body is shrouded in purple and scarlet gauze. She holds a scarlet cup filled with sweet holy liquid and bestows desire and pain on the world.
There are not many true believers in this sect, and the process of holding ceremonies has always been extremely secretive, basically limited to nobles and professionals, so there is very little information about them.
Furthermore, due to the indulgence of desires and pleasure in their doctrines, the nobles liked their teachings very much, and many important figures in the Federation were suspected to have some connection with this church.
Currently, this secret cult is said to be active in both the Gloria Empire and the Itel Federation. Only in the Holy Messiah Empire, due to the peculiarity of the unity of politics and religion, no foreign church can survive.
In comparison, the information obtained from the man in the mirror is even more in-depth than that from the Olivendi family.
The intelligence from the [Alliance of Glory] mentioned a key piece of information, that through the channels of a certain federal dignitary, one can participate in the next ceremony that this cult will hold in the near future.
However, for safety reasons, Avis does not intend to get personally involved in this matter this time.
This was due to the description that appeared on the pages of the book after he sealed the cup with the Old Secret Scripture.
[The Crimson Cup, a part of the ancient existence '◆◇▇'. ]
Avis couldn't understand the meaning of the garbled symbols, but while the other text was dark green, this garbled code was strangely bright red like a ruby, which looked unsafe no matter how you looked at it.
But when he took the cup out again, he found that the old secret scripture had no reaction to the cup at all.
The same situation also occurred when facing the yellow-robed figure before, and when facing the burning green flame directly in the Secret Realm of Glorious Light.
Anvis wondered if this book was reminding him from another perspective that some things were best not to be provoked.
When faced with sealed or crippled ancient foreign entities, the Old Secret Book usually reacts with longing. But when it occasionally encounters an entity that seems to be in a relatively complete state, it becomes as quiet as an ordinary book.
