Chapter 718
718 The famous detective Abaddon
Although Abaddon did not open his eyes, he could sense a familiar dark aura from the young girl.
If he wasn’t wrong, this little girl must have been touched by the dark shadow.
Combined with Grace’s words about “finding a cure,” Abaddon’s sharp senses picked up on the hidden secret.
The little girl must have been cursed by the dark figure. Link and grace must have tried to cure her.
In the process of teaching skills to the players over the past two days, Abaddon had learned a lot about the mechanical fortress from the casual chat with the players.
The Queen of Banshees, grace, lived in the misty villa. This place could be said to be the most mysterious place in the entire mechanical fortress.
Players from other places could enter by relying on their status. They could also use their contribution points to exchange for many resources. This was the only place that players could not stop scratching their heads at. Ever since the wasteland, the misty villa had been a mysterious place. Grace was even more elusive. Every time she appeared, she would appear in her gray fog form. She would only appear in her true form when link was around.
Grace was the Queen of Banshees, the Lord of the gray fog, and also a great Alchemist. She had fame, strength, and status, yet she remained mysterious. In the eyes of the players, she was a hidden expert. Moreover, grace had a strong personality. She completely ignored Link’s decisions and didn’t pay attention to these players. Some players even wanted to enter the gray fog to see her but were thrown out by her. this was also the reason why the players had been scratching their ears and cheeks outside the misty villa a few days ago when they wanted to get some mystic energy attribute equipment.
The reason why Grace was so against the players was something that the players could understand. this was because she was now raising the most precious person in the entire mechanical fortress-miranda.
Miranda was the Apple of everyone’s eye in the mechanical fortress. Whether it was an NPC or a player, they all took great care of this girl with big eyes like a porcelain doll.
Grace was afraid that the endless disturbance from the players would affect Miranda’s mood, so she decisively refused and chose to ignore Link’s order.
When it came to matters related to Miranda, grace even dared to go against link, let alone an order.
Link understood this. Grace had taken care of Miranda for several months. Although they weren’t mother and daughter, they were closer than that.
If it could be said that alchemy had occupied the top priority in Grace’s heart before, then she might receive a different answer now.
This was what Abaddon had learned from the players.
If he was not mistaken, the little girl with the childish voice was Miranda.
Abaddon’s emotions were all over the place.
On one hand, he felt a sharp pain in his heart when he thought of Fu, who had transformed into a war envoy. he’d only given link the core to increase his loyalty. the core was the work of the dark lord. even if someone else had it, they wouldn’t be able to use its power. Abaddon wanted to gain Link’s trust before finding a way to retrieve the core. However, she did not expect link to find a way to use the core of the imprint and give it to her.
Thinking of Fu’s silly appearance on the training field, Abaddon felt that the strength and dignity of the war envoy had been completely swept away, and he had lost the opportunity to regain his power forever.
“Something’s wrong! If I can destroy the wasteland Alliance and bring Fu back to the Lord Black shadow alive, I can extract the core of the mark from his body and give it to me again!” although abaddon didn’t open his eyes, the thought in his heart still made his blood boil!
He could still be saved!
Then, everything would return to its original point. How could they destroy the wasteland Alliance internally?
Previously, Abaddon had planted some seeds, but these seeds needed time to take effect. According to his previous plan, Abaddon could take advantage of these few days to nourish these seeds. However, the players ‘interference had broken his rhythm. For three whole days, he had buried himself in his room and taught the players skills, wasting precious time.
now that there were only two days left before Victoria, he had no time to detonate the foreshadowing he had buried before. just as he was feeling depressed, he happened to see fu in his war messenger state. all kinds of negative emotions stacked on top of each other, causing him to vomit blood and faint.
However, it was a blessing in disguise.
It was because of this fainting that Abaddon learned of a deeply hidden secret.
If he used it well, would it become a new opportunity?
At this moment, Abaddon was eager to know more about Miranda. When he noticed that there was no one around, Abaddon slowly opened his eyes and looked around vigilantly, but there was nothing unusual.
It made sense. Grace was even willing to reject Inhumans for Miranda’s sake. How could there be any other random people in her residence, especially when it was a place for her to study alchemy?
Abaddon immediately saw a huge and messy alchemy table, and his eyes immediately widened as if he had seen something surprising. The alchemy table was engraved with some rune marks, which he had only seen at the bestowment ceremony. They were the identity marks of the Lord Black shadow.
Abaddon walked to the alchemy table and looked at the opened scrolls and formulas on the table. His shock reached its peak again. There were many alchemy scrolls and sheepskin scrolls that were the notes and collections of the Lord Black shadow, but they appeared here at this moment.
abaddon gasped. it seemed that link’s group wasn’t completely clueless about the alien planet. their understanding of the planet wasn’t limited to the grassroots and surface. it had even reached the level of studying the planet’s leaders.
It was terrifying!
just as abaddon’s eyes were in a daze, he suddenly saw the contents of a scroll of goatskin on the table.
“In my name, receive it with strength. “When darkness and hope come, the power of destruction and rebirth will destroy everything.” Abaddon’s eyes lit up as he read through the contents. His shocked expression became more twisted, and finally turned into a cruel laugh.
thank you, Lord Shadow, for leaving behind such a great weapon. Now I finally know the weakness of the wasteland Alliance Army, aww.
Just as Abdon was feeling confident, he suddenly heard footsteps outside. He immediately put down the scroll in his hand and lay down again at lightning speed, maintaining his previous position.
The door creaked open, and Grace’s shadow gradually elongated and covered Abaddon.
The unique fragrance of the Queen of Banshees rushed into his nose.
Next, grace extended her hook-like fingers and slowly moved them to the throbbing artery on Abaddon’s neck.
as long as grace wanted to, her sharp, reverse-hooked nails could easily pierce through abaddon’s artery.
When Grace’s finger was placed on the artery, she pressed on it for a few seconds. Then, she retracted her finger and muttered to herself, ” what a pity. it seems that he will wake up soon. the research can’t continue. ”
With a wave of Grace’s hand, the goatskin scroll on the table and the alchemy table disappeared.The alchemy table that Abaddon was lying on had also become a Cold Stone bed.
Abdon felt the shadow in front of him gradually fade away. With the sound of Grace’s footsteps and the creaking of the door, everything returned to silence.
“hu!”
Abaddon heaved a long sigh of relief, followed by a violent heartbeat.
The fear that had been suppressed in his heart just now was now like a wild horse that had been released without restraint, and all kinds of reactions in his body followed.
If it had been anyone else from the mechanical fortress, even Gamesh, he would not have been worried that they would harm him.
however, grace was an unfathomable person. everything she did was based on her own preferences.
Abaddon touched his artery and felt a chill on his neck.
If grace had even the slightest killing intent, he would have lost his life.
In the misty villa, he had lost the power from the core imprint, so he was no match for grace at all.
After his mood gradually calmed down, another question emerged in Abaddon’s heart.
Although he had restrained himself to the extreme and grace hadn’t seen anything out of the ordinary, he had still seen the scroll and the alchemy table. Did he leave behind any clues? Had his act of not waking up been seen through by grace?
Abaddon was feeling uneasy.There was also a mix of excitement and agitation.
On one hand, he was worried that he would be exposed. On the other hand, he had found the weakness of the wasteland Expeditionary Force.
once he reached Victoria city, he would find an opportunity to detonate this weakness. not only would he destroy link and the wasteland expeditionary force, but all the enemies in victoria city who were against the alien planet would also be destroyed. by then, he would be able to eliminate two enemies on the alien planet, and he would definitely be rewarded by the leader, thanos.
Abaddon thought a lot, carefully thinking about how to proceed with each step.
He looked at the warp gate outside the porthole. There were only two days left until Victoria.
Abaddon stood at the door and took a deep breath. After a while, he suddenly hit himself on the head. Then, he staggered and his eyes were unfocused. He was like a weed in the wind, looking like a person who had just woken up and was not in his right mind.
Abaddon pushed the door open with both hands, his steps staggering.
the misty villa was surrounded by a dense poisonous gray fog, but there was no gray fog inside the manor. even with the lights on, it still gave people a foggy and heavy feeling.
Abaddon had never entered the misty villa before. Seeing the twisted building in front of him, which had a trace of demonic aura, a sense of mystery rose in his heart.
The ground was full of undeveloped Walking Dead. With Abaddon’s experience, he said that these Walking Dead and Alchemy products had amazing defensive power, comparable to the shadow dog. At the same time, some of the larger stitched bodies even carried a deadly plague. Their organs were irregularly twisted and mixed together, and they had hair on their backs.
Not long after Abdon came out, grace suddenly appeared. Her face was as cold as ice, and her eyes were like freezing rays. Just a single exchange of looks made people unable to move.
“You’re awake?” Grace asked. However, to Abdon, her tone clearly contained a lot of ridicule.
Abaddon froze for a moment, then nodded.”I’m awake. Thank you for your help.”
A killing intent flashed through Grace’s eyes. I didn’t help you at all. Now that you’re fine, leave this place. Otherwise, I won’t be able to help myself and I’ll kill you!
Abaddon nodded his head repeatedly. If it was anyone else who said this, he would have just taken it as the other party venting his anger.
However, when grace said to kill, it was absolute! Right! No! They would! Yes! Play! He laughed!
“Alright, I’ll leave now.”
Abaddon had long since made his preparations. He had used his injury as an excuse to stay in the lounge for the past two days, and then used the mouth of the Inhumans who were learning skills to inquire more about Miranda. When the Expeditionary Force arrived in Victoria City, they would definitely be focused on the alien army. By then, Link’s assistants and pets would be sent to the battlefield. He might even arrange for him to speak at the front of the battle to crush the alien Army’s confidence.
However, once he could move, he would be able to find an opportunity to grasp the Expeditionary Army’s biggest weakness in his hands!
The gray fog of the misty villa automatically cleared a path, and Abaddon walked on the road to the rest area. There were many Expeditionary Forces and Inhumans standing in the distance, pointing at him and whispering to each other.
Although he couldn’t hear what they were talking about, he could guess that it was nothing more than the matter of vomiting blood and fainting today.
Abaddon didn’t care about this at all, his heart was already filled with great ambitions.
the whole incident was like a small interlude, only causing a small ripple in the mechanical fortress.
However, on the forum, this matter received a lot of attention. The players all transformed into literary heroes, thinking that Abaddon was suffering in silence and couldn’t say anything. [ he lost the wife and the soldiers, and in the end, he still paid the wrong price. ] all kinds of embarrassing images and even the unwilling eyes of someone who spat out Abaddon’s blood and fell to the ground, and the image of him being ko-ed by Tang Bohu, were called ” world-famous paintings.
Of course, Fu’s war Messenger form was equally popular.
The dark version of Ah Fu was too cute. If it didn’t have a pair of small wings on its back, it would look like a Demon King from hell. However, with a pair of ” fragile ” little wings, he suddenly looked like a silly and cute comedian.
if fu’s appearance had received unanimous praise from many players, then fu’s skills had attracted even more discussion.
There were things like ‘Black Tiger Steals Heart’,’ Mount Tai crushes’, ‘Crow takes a plane’,’ tornado destroys parking lots’, ‘Flying Elephant stomps on rats’,’ groundhogs throw stomachs’, ‘T-Rex spreads its wings and flies’,’ I become a lame goose’, and so on. The names were funny, but the effects were rich and varied. The entire set of skills was collectively called the 95 styles of martial Dao, and it covered almost all aspects of martial Dao combat.
As a Big Shot in the martial arts Department, wind-chasing Wolf also published a long post, analyzing and explaining Fu’s various skills.
The final conclusion was that although the names of these skills were funny, their effects were in line with all aspects of life and combat. Some were suitable for attack, and some were auxiliary skills. Moreover, with Fu’s warmessenger state, the power was extraordinary.
In the end, wind-chasing Wolf gave this set of 95 styles a coffin-covering evaluation, ” This was an extremely complete set of martial arts skills, which could be said to be perfect.
He also expressed that if this set of skills wasn’t exclusive to AFU’s war Messenger, he would spare no expense to learn it.
Wind-chasing Wolf was a well-known martial artist, but even he had such a high evaluation. It could be seen that this set of martial arts that made people laugh was indeed unique.
Fu’s sparring partner in the martial arts practice field continued. After one high-end match after another, Fu’s combat experience was growing at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.
Under such circumstances, the mechanical fortress arrived at the warp gate of the star system, preparing for the last warp before the battle.
