Chapter 900 Testing
"Maybe the dead buried inside escaped?"
As if he had also smelled this strange smell, the old man holding the lantern pinched his nose and said:
"After the first dead person fell off the cliff of the end, the road of no return without guidance almost came to a standstill, and all the existing rules of the dead world would gradually become disordered. The cemetery of the sages would naturally not be immune, and a large number of dead people would slowly lose control.
The souls of the so-called sages of mankind have been buried too deep and too long in the dark cemetery, and their thoughts have become rigid and decayed, so they are prone to emitting this sour and smelly smell. "
is it?
Although he still felt that something was not right, the explanation of the old man holding the lantern was indeed reasonable. After thinking about it, the faceless man did not continue to explore. Instead, he looked at the quiet gray cemetery in the distance and asked in a steady tone:
"How are the others preparing? Have the remains of the first deceased been dealt with?"
“Everything is ready.”
The ancient lamp swayed slightly, and the old man holding the lantern answered:
"Except for the injured patrol girl at Happy Lake, everyone else received some of the remains of the first deceased and hid around the Sage Cemetery in advance, waiting for the cleanup bureau to arrive."
"That's good."
Nodding slightly, expressing satisfaction with the progress of others, the faceless man pondered for a moment, then slightly retracted his brows, and said with a somewhat fearful look:
"Oh, by the way, remember to take the patrol girl farther away, and try not to let her get close to the Sage Cemetery. Just prepare to intercept any directors who have escaped. Also..."
When he said this, the faceless man paused for a moment, then said in a slightly cold tone:
"You should pay more attention to her situation. If she does anything unusual, you must stop her in time. If you find that you can't stop her... you can kill her!"
"This……"
After listening to the faceless man's instructions, the old man holding the lantern hesitated for a moment, then asked in confusion:
"Are you worried that she's not out of control yet?"
"Correct."
"But when the God of Food tried to touch the corpse of the first deceased, she had already left her heart lake on her own initiative, and was then pushed off the Cliff of the End by you. There should be no soul left, right?"
"That's right in theory..."
Recalling the look of sudden enlightenment in Leon's eyes when he fell off the Cliff of the End, the Faceless Man couldn't help but rub the back of his hand... When he pushed the God of Cookery down, he was touched hard by him.
After touching the back of his hand, the God of Food, who was originally shocked and angry, seemed to suddenly understand something and looked directly at him. That strange look that seemed to see through everything really made him feel creepy when he thought about it now...
“But the Patrol Girl has been controlled by the God of Food after all, and no one knows whether the God of Food has left any tricks in her body. So, just in case, we still have to keep a close eye on her... If they really want to kill her, there’s nothing we can do about it!”
Pulling his sleeve down to cover the back of his hand that was touched by the God of Food, the faceless man turned his head to look in the direction of the patrol girl, and then said with a cold expression:
"Even though the Cleanup Bureau is not as strong as before, we are definitely no match for them if we fight head-on, so the ambush plan must be foolproof and there must not be any mistakes!"
"All right……"
After hearing the words of the faceless man, the old man holding the lantern couldn't help but sigh, looked in the direction of the patrol girl with pity, and prepared to send another "old friend" down if necessary.
At this moment, the faceless man seemed to have discovered something, and looked towards the direction of the Sages' Cemetery with narrowed eyes.
Under the gaze of its non-existent eyes, a middle-aged woman with strong traces of time on her face, but who should have been a beauty when she was young, walked quickly out of the side door of the Sages' Cemetery, came to the "break" of the road of no return, and bent over to examine it carefully.
"That should be the Pisces Director of the Cleanup Bureau!"
Although the middle-aged woman had disguised herself sufficiently, she still could not escape the keen perception of the soul by the Lord of the Dead. After staring at the middle-aged woman's soul that was split into four, the old man holding the lantern could not help but ask with surprise:
"How did she get out of the Sage Cemetery? Have the people from the Cleanup Bureau arrived?"
"Not sure, let's wait and see, besides..."
Looking at the four distinct souls of Director Pisces from a distance, the faceless man couldn't help but curl up his lips slightly, and then he opened his mouth to warn:
"Tell the engraver later that once the people from the Cleanup Bureau have completely entered the encirclement, the Pisces director of the Cleanup Bureau will be handed over to him to deal with."
"Engraver?"
"To be precise, it is the rules of the Sea of Oblivion controlled by the engraver."
The faceless man explained:
"The Pisces director of the Cleanup Bureau has four souls in her body, each with a name, which are perfectly controlled by the Carver. By then, the Carver will probably only need to shout, which will be enough to cause her soul to fall into chaos, or even split into four and tear itself apart." So that's how it is.
After nodding with a look of understanding, the old man holding the lantern took note of the faceless man's instructions, stared at Director Shuangyu for a while, then frowned again and said:
"She seems to be checking the Road of No Return... Could it be that the situation of the first deceased has been discovered by the Cleanup Bureau?"
"should be."
Seeing Director Pisces' expression change after checking the road of no return and hurried back to the Sage Cemetery, the Faceless Man thought for a while and took the initiative to leave the shadow that concealed his figure.
"Let's go! Let's go there!"
what?
After hearing the faceless man's words, the old man holding the lantern was startled and quickly reached out to pull him.
"Are you crazy? What if the Cleanup Bureau sets up an ambush?"
"An ambush would be best."
The faceless man smiled when he heard this, and then said confidently:
"If the Cleanup Bureau really set up an ambush, they must be aiming to catch us all in one fell swoop. They will definitely not just target one or two Death Realm Overlords. So the more ambushes they have, the safer it will be for us to go there now!"
It seems...right?
Convinced by the faceless man's analysis, the old man with the lantern quickly followed after hesitating for a moment, although he felt a little uneasy.
Just as the two Lords of the Dead approached to a certain distance and successfully stepped into the Sages' Cemetery, the quiet mist surrounding the cemetery suddenly became thicker, instantly covering up everything that was originally clearly visible.
Immediately afterwards, two humans, a man and a woman, walked out of the fog and stood in front of the faceless man and the old man with the lantern with vigilant looks.
"What are you doing here?"
Looking at the two dead world masters in front of him who were full of dangerous aura, Director Sagittarius narrowed his eyes and said sternly with a cold face:
"It's not the agreed time yet! Please leave!"
"Master Sagittarius, don't get excited. We just came to see Master Pisces because we saw him."
After slowly raising his hands without fingerprints to indicate that he had no ill intentions, the faceless man carefully observed the surrounding environment while tentatively speaking:
"Also, since it's not the agreed time yet, why did you come to the Sage Cemetery ahead of time?"
After looking at the Sage Cemetery that was completely blocked by thick fog, the faceless man, who was full of doubts, thought for a moment, then smiled and said:
"Mr. Sagittarius, I suddenly have a strange idea. The so-called negotiation you mentioned earlier...isn't it actually an ambush against all the masters of the dead world?"
not good!
After hearing the faceless man's question, the two directors' hearts tightened.
The more shrewd Sagittarius director understood that this was just a test and that saying more would only lead to more mistakes, so he snorted and kept silent with a gloomy face. The Pisces director, who had much less experience, could not suppress his confused emotions and could not help but glance at the tombstone in the distance.
This... is it true that I was right?!
After noticing the inappropriate gaze of Director Pisces, the Faceless Man, who was also feeling a little nervous, raised his eyebrows, then followed her gaze and actually discovered a few hidden soul fluctuations.
There really is an ambush!
He secretly waved to the old man holding the lantern behind him, indicating that he should evacuate immediately if he found anything wrong. Then the faceless man disappeared in an instant, and ran towards the direction where Director Pisces was looking with a fierce look on his face.
"and many more!!"
"Don't!!!"
Ignoring the exclamations and attempts to stop him from the two directors behind him, the faceless man, with alarm bells ringing in his heart, threw away the two stacked tombstones, and then kicked away the ebony coffin board underneath!
"..."
"..."
"?!?!?!?!?!"
Looking at the infatuated man and woman hugging each other in an ambiguous posture in the coffin, looking up at him with astonishment on their faces, the bones under the face of the faceless man couldn't help but twist violently twice, forcing out an extremely strange expression.
It's not...Isn't it...you humans have such a big heart?!
