Chapter 402: Agares!
One month later.
Still on the fifth floor.
Learning from their previous experience, this time Cheng Haixing and his friends chose a vast grassland as their training ground.
Here the wind is calm and the sea is quiet. In the plain, there are some creatures looking at them cautiously.
Cheng Haixing crossed his arms, "They are your training targets for today. The number of creatures here is limited, and I want you to eliminate them all."
A student hesitated, "But didn’t we negotiate with the various countries of Green Velon before, saying that we are not allowed to slaughter these creatures?"
Cheng Haixing frowned, "The agreement we signed was with the countries of Green Velon, not with these mixed creatures of Tatna."
"The leader of these creatures is called Akas, a fourth-level creature, which is just right for you now."
"By the way, Ye Long."
Ye Long stepped forward, "Yes!"
Cheng Haixing turned around, "Your training will be slightly different from theirs."
"There is a priest among these creatures who is said to have the power to summon demons. That’s why we haven’t cleared these creatures before."
"We didn’t clean it up because we were lazy, not because we couldn’t or we were scared of them."
"But unexpected things can happen during the mission. I want you to deal with this High Priest. You can choose a few people you trust."
Ye Long thought for a moment, "Got it."
"You can’t go."
Just then, Yamon’s voice echoed in Ye Long’s mind.
"If you go, there will definitely be a danger to your life. Though the future I see is very blurry, the creature summoned by that subhuman is something beyond our abilities to handle."
Ye Long stayed silent for a moment.
"Aren’t you a match for it?"
"That’s correct."
"Is the opponent above Level 7?"
"That’s a possibility."
"Got it."
Ye Long looked at Cheng Haixing, "I will handle this mission alone, no need for anyone else to assist me."
Cheng Haixing frowned, "Are you sure? We know very little about the other party, you going alone…"
"I can," Ye Long replied solemnly.
Cheng Haixing patted Ye Long’s shoulder, "Alright, I believe in you, but if there’s danger, remember, set your combat suit to maximum power, make sure to prioritize your safety!"
Ye Long nodded, "Okay, about what you mentioned in the message yesterday, about delivering that thing, should I do it now?"
Cheng Haixing frowned, "That thing is too dangerous, it’s better to deliver it sooner rather than later."
Ye Long looked around at the people nearby, "There are too many people here, not suitable for exchanging."
Cheng Haixing nodded and followed Ye Long to an empty hill behind.
"Where is it?"
Hearing this, Ye Long reached out his hand into the air and pulled out a large sword made of sheep skull, "When I came, my superior ordered me to secretly carry this thing with me, why suddenly send it away?"
Catastrophe Blade.
Cheng Haixing’s expression suddenly became serious, "This is another leader’s decision, after much thought, the higher-ups still think it’s too risky to leave Catastrophe Blade in the hands of a child."
Ye Long sighed and then handed over the sword with both hands.
"Alright then."
Cheng Haixing reached out to take it, but Ye Long suddenly twisted his wrist, and stabbed the sword directly into Cheng Haixing’s chest while he was off guard!
Pfft!!
Cheng Haixing’s eyes narrowed, "You!"
Ye Long gripped his sword tightly, his eyes turning fierce, "Our boss said only the two of us know about this, no one else. How could you possibly know?"
"If you can take away someone’s memories, then you should understand that you didn’t tell me anything yesterday."
Blood trickled from the corner of Cheng Haixing’s mouth, "When did you start suspecting me?"
Ye Long looked up, "Since a month ago."
Cheng Haixing hesitated, "That’s impossible. I only took over his identity a month ago, and I played the part perfectly during that time. How could you have noticed anything?"
Pfft!
Ye Long drew out the Catastrophe Blade, "No, you misunderstand. I don’t just suspect you, I suspect everyone."
"After that person gave me The Book of Raymond Geddes, I wrote down all the names and abilities of all you demons."
"Knowing that a demon could take on someone else’s appearance, I have been cautious of everyone around me."
Cheng Haixing’s pupils shrank, "Did you never trust me?"
Ye Long returned the Catastrophe Blade to the void, "Even if you had no flaws, I would still doubt you. Agares, you disguise yourself well."
"You are the second ranked among the 72 demons of Solomon, right?"
"Unfortunately, I am ranked twelfth."
As he spoke, black mist suddenly surged out of Ye Long’s body, transforming into a man with a crow’s head.
"Agares, out of consideration for our past friendship, I did not expose you directly. Are you still serving Aogude?"
Cheng Haixing’s face suddenly changed, two huge goat horns extending from his forehead, and his face instantly aged.
"Yamon, it’s you…"
Ye Long seemed to sense something, suddenly looking at the two demons, "Did you just say you serve Aogude?"
"Weren’t you all sealed by Aogude? How come you’re serving him now?"
Yamon gazed at Ye Long, "That’s true. After we were freed, some chose to pledge allegiance to Aogude, he is one of them, but not me."
Agares didn’t deny it, "I can’t deny this."
Ye Long suddenly raised the Solomon Seal Ring in his hand, "I’ll believe your words just once, don’t want to hear them a second time."
"So, all of you are actually sent by Ogul, right?"
Crackling!
The ring in Ye Long’s hand suddenly emitted a blood-red lightning ripple!
Instantly, two marks appeared on Yamon and Agares’ necks!
"Ouch!" x2
The two demons fell to their knees in an instant, their bodies twitching uncontrollably as if being electrocuted!
"Yes!"
Ye Long lightly rubbed the ring with his fingers, showing no signs of stopping, "This ring can make you absolutely loyal, right?"
"Yes!!"
"If we ever disobey or deceive you, the power of the ring will cause excruciating pain in our wrists!"
Ye Long chuckled, "Next, I will ask, you will answer, just say yes or no."
"It was Aogude who released you, right?"
"Yes."
"Did Aogude send you to find me?"
"Yes."
"Let me guess, Aogude wants me to enter the Hall of Echoes?"
"…Yes."
"He wants you to threaten me, or my family, to put me in a dangerous situation. Then Yamon would guide me, the Hall of Echoes could give me power, and deceive me into entering the Hall of Echoes, right?"
"…Yes…"
