King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 843 The Dark Web

Chapter 843 The Dark Web
The Northern Continent Underground Intelligence Network was a very secretive organization. So secretive that even though it originated in the winter, not many people had heard of them.

On the one hand, this is due to the fact that the underground intelligence network of the Northern Continent itself is cautious enough, and on the other hand, it is due to their strong intelligence capabilities.

“With so many observers gathered here, aren’t you afraid of being caught in one fell swoop?” Diluk said jokingly, then found a random seat and sat down.

"Catch them all in one fell swoop? I'm afraid the current strength of the Fatui at the headquarters is not enough."

Someone chuckled and shook his head, apparently very confident in his own ability.

Diluk was quick to sense something when he heard this. He held his chin and lowered his head to think.

"Because of the funeral outside? From what I understand, it seems that only the sixth seat died?"

As he said this, he shook his head. Even if the Fatui lost an executive officer, so what? They had eleven of them!
"The scattered soldiers, after seizing the Thunder God's Heart, headed for Xumi, and were later found buried on a hillside in Inazuma by scouts of the Fatui."

"Who killed him?"

"Not sure, I guess it might be the Doctor."

The man who answered responded unsurely.

"It shouldn't be enough to change our power comparison, right?"

Diluk didn't seem to be disturbed at all, he was calmly analyzing the situation.

"Of course. Um... you've been in Mondstadt for a long time, so you may not know much about winter."

"The captain left for Nata, and the girl left for Winter some time ago. The servant and the young master are probably escorting the Heart of the Water God back."

"Don't you think... this is a good opportunity?"

It seemed that the observer who was in charge of the Solstice region slowly explained the situation of the Solstice Faints. After listening, Diluk understood the deeper meaning.

"So, the captain, the girl, and the servants are all outside the Winter Solstice, leaving only the doctor..."

Diluk closed his eyes and began to tap on the round table.

"Ta! Tat! Tat!"

The sound of nails hitting the tabletop echoed for a long time without interruption. The opinions of every observer were crucial, especially for Diluk, who was a senior member who had been in the upper echelons for a long time.

"despair!"

The voice stopped, and then Diluk finally spoke his first words after closing his eyes for a long time.

"Our goal."

"Heart of God."

Diluk's body froze, and he remained in that position for a long time without making any other movements.

Seeing him like this, someone stood up and explained, "It's funeral time now, and the Fatui's remaining executive officers are focusing all their attention on the dead stragglers."

"We have found out that the Heart of God is stored in the auditorium."

After sharing this information, the man sat down again. He believed that with this information, Diluk would make his own choice.

After a long while, Diluk finally shook his head.

"I disagree. The risk is too great."

Diluk opened his eyes unwillingly. Although he didn't want to admit it, even if so many of the Fatui's high-level fighters had left, it was enough to overwhelm them.

"Don't forget that the Doctor is an unsolvable problem."

Diluk looked around at everyone and spoke slowly. In fact, there was one thing he didn't mention - the Queen of Winter was also here.

But needless to say, most people here live in winter all year round and know better than him.

Even though the Fatui lost three high-end fighters, there are still two left. This gap will be difficult to make up even if the Fatui focuses on the funeral and even if they launch a surprise attack.

He spread out his palms. He was already very strong, but still far behind the monsters among the Fatui.

"The Queen is undergoing some kind of transformation and cannot take action." As if seeing what Diluk was thinking, someone spoke again.

The Northern Continent Intelligence Network has accumulated intelligence over the years for today.

"..."

The balance tipped in their favor again, and Diluk fell silent.

If there was only the Doctor, maybe he could really fight. After all, the Doctor was different from the Captain in terms of his terrifying individual strength. Although he was difficult to deal with, his strength was dispersed.

"Okay, okay, it seems that you have become cautious over the years. Where is the red-haired boy who was rushing around like that?"

"This is growth, you know, with our size, we can't afford huge losses."

Diluk turned his head and saw that the person who spoke was the observer who had brought him into the organization.

The observer nodded in agreement, and then he said as if reminiscing about the past:
"Boys will always grow up and become adults, and then new boys will run rampant. At this time, as an adult, will you try to stop them?"

Diluk frowned when he heard this. He understood that the observer's "rampant" referred to his crazy extermination of the Fatui, so the meaning of this sentence was very clear.

"Have you met any children like me?" Diluk sighed. This was yet another tragedy caused by the Fatui.

"After we get out, you can bring him into the organization, and I'll be his guide."

He said so. If a young boy wanted to fight a giant like the Fatui, he would only be destroyed like an ant.

Unexpectedly, after hearing what Diluk said, the observer smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"I also want to pull them in and persuade them not to be impulsive, but I also need to have the ability to do so."

"What? Still not alone?"

Diluk seemed a little surprised. Most of the people who embarked on a journey of revenge were lone wolves, and there were very few who gathered together.

"Yeah, and they are a very strong group of little guys." The observer nodded.

"How strong?"

"So strong... like a monster..."

A complicated look flashed across the observer's eyes, and he muttered to himself:
"Yes, it's a monster."

"They are monsters raised by the Fatui."

……

Putting on his hood, Diluk walked out of the tavern. But this time he was no longer alone, and there was a companion in front of him.

This man is the observer who once saved Diluk, a man who was miserable because of the Fatui, and powerful because of the Fatui.

Wearing the common big woolen hat and having beards on both sides of his face, this is the common attire for men in winter.

But who knew that beneath this ordinary appearance, there was a burning heart for revenge and the strength to snatch people from the hands of the executor.

"Where?"

Diluk asked from behind the observer.

"Don't worry."

"If I don't hurry, we'll be out of town."

Stepping on the unmelting ice and snow, Diluk looked at the vast expanse of white and said.

"They're just outside the city."

The observer's words silenced Diluk. He was stunned for a moment, then turned and walked into the city.

"Why are you going?"

"I'll go get some fuel and food."

Diluk looked a little ugly, and those who knew him well understood that this was a manifestation of his suppressed anger.

"Don't bother. They don't need it."

The observer put his arm around Diluk's shoulders and turned him back.
