Chapter 204: There is a mole, the deal is terminated
Chapter 204: There is a mole, the deal is terminated
The desert nights were a bit chilly, but Egolia and Sines did not feel cold. On the contrary, their nights were quite warm.
Early in the morning, the two walked out of the room and saw Ying, Dixiaseno, Paimon and others standing in front of the warehouse.
"Everyone, what are you doing?"
Dixia explained that she and Ying had captured some mercenaries related to the disappearance of the village defenders yesterday, and now Candice was interrogating them for information.
Soon after, Candice sent an invitation in the warehouse.
"Everyone, please come in."
Apparently, Candice had made them talk.
Upon entering the room, Hines saw three... people covered in bruises? And Amp, smiling and drinking tea beside them.
Hines complained silently in his heart that this old guy was not as simple as he looked.
Egolia turned her head away with some reluctance. She kept telling herself that these guys deserved it and that she should not sympathize with human traffickers.
Hines carried Eugolia to the side. Since the matter of asking for intelligence had nothing to do with them, he decided to leave it to others.
However, these guys didn't know much, and they didn't even know who they were contacting.
"I have a guess..."
An Pu put down the teacup and glanced at the three prisoners who were still lying on the ground crying out in pain.
Seno immediately understood what Anpu meant, and kicked each of them unconscious.
"Okay, it's time to talk."
Seno's quick and decisive action made even Hines look sideways.
"Good skills."
An Pu nodded with satisfaction and continued,
"I guess that mysterious man might be from the House of Lords. Someone from the House of Lords once tried to take the village guards away, but I rejected them. Now it seems..."
......
"Case solved, Xumi is northern Myanmar!"
"This is hilarious! A whole criminal gang, huh? They're using human brains to mine, imprisoning gods, and now they're also trafficking people."
"The House of the Lords can no longer be cleansed. The only solution is to boil the Great Sage into soup!"
......
The information is summarized, but there is still one question, that is,
"Why did the Ordinance arrest these village guards?"
Hines' question made everyone think, yes, what is the motive of the House of Lords?
Isn't it a bit too strange to go to so much trouble to drive the crazy scholar to Aru Village and then secretly capture him?
"It's for the canned knowledge of the gods."
At some point, Elhaisen appeared at the door and pushed it open with the answer.
Elhaisen's words reminded Ying of her experiences in Omos Harbor and the information she had learned in the Hua Castle: canned knowledge, canned knowledge of the gods...
Seno frowned and looked at Elhaisen. This guy had disappeared since they started the operation. He only appeared now, and when he appeared, he brought such a heavy answer.
"evidence?"
Seno's doubts were completely within Heisen's consideration.
"As a clerk, I've come across information about extracting canned knowledge at the Ordinance House. The conditions of the two village guards they brought back coincide with those of those who were extracted."
Ying suddenly realized,
"So what the Order needs is not the village guards, but the knowledge related to the gods in their minds!"
Although this sentence was shocking enough to everyone, Ying had an even more outrageous guess that she hadn't said out loud.
The Order even wanted to create a god based on this knowledge.
As luck would have it, Egolia also looked at Hines. She remembered the document they found in the House of Vitality, which mentioned that the doctor wanted to create a god.
Now that the House of Lords has begun collecting knowledge about gods, is it also planning to create a god?
The absurd idea made Egolia a little dazed. Now she was not only impressed by the powerful wisdom and desire for knowledge of the Xumi people, but also shocked by their audacity.
"Hines, do you remember that document?"
"of course."
Hines took out a document from his backpack.
"Everyone, this document may not be of much help in addressing the disappearance of the village guards we are discussing, but I would like to invite you to take a look at the last sentence of the document."
Creating a god, this bold idea made everyone present fall into deep thought.
Only Ying is more concerned about who is the author of this document?
"It's most likely the Fatui executive officer—Doctor."
There was no need for Hines to hide anything, and there was absolutely no harm in drawing some hatred towards the Doctor in advance!
The shocking words seemed to make Ying see the bloody hospital, no, it should be called a testing base.
......
"Holy crap, human experiments, organ transplants? Is this something a human would do?"
"They also injected the patients with something unknown, torturing them to the point of driving them crazy!"
"Hines said the document was found by Vitality House. I haven't been there yet."
"Go check it out, buddy. You'll want to make the Doctor's health bar shine even more after you see it."
......
Seno knocked on the table to bring everyone back to their senses. He had already seen the document when he and Hines were chatting before, so he was not particularly shocked.
"The Order's operation to extract the canned knowledge of the gods existed before we arrived in Aru Village, but as soon as we approached here, that base was abandoned. Why?"
Seno stared at Elhaisen, his suspicion undisguised.
Hines was very confident that if Elhaisen could not give a reasonable explanation at this time, Seno would definitely fight with him.
Paimon scratched his head as he listened to what Xeno said.
"Yeah, why?"
"It's very simple. If someone tips off, this will happen."
Hines casually said dangerous words that could split the gang (crossed out), the team.
Candice nodded slightly and looked at El Haisen, who rarely appeared.
"We generally call this kind of person a traitor."
Paimon said "Ah" with a tone of disbelief.
"Are the relationships between us so fake!?"
Heisen, the target of public criticism, folded his arms, his expression unchanged.
"It seems that none of you realize the problem..."
Everyone looked at Heisen quietly, waiting for his performance, including Egolia and Hines.
"Seno, they can predict our actions because you are here."
Even Seno couldn't hold it back after these words came out. He even wanted to laugh at Elhaisen's joke-telling skills.
Even Seno couldn't laugh at this joke.
"Watch your words, or don't blame me for being rude."
Candice's eyes shifted between the two men. To be fair, she trusted Seno more, with whom she had worked together, but she couldn't completely deny his suspicion.
Egolia knew that Heisen's intelligence was not comparable to that of ordinary people, so he must have his reasons for daring to say that.
Hines was just watching the show, he even wondered if Heisen could beat Seno.
