Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

In fact, Jonah has been cornered until now. He knows that what he is doing now is full of flaws in the eyes of others, but in fact Jonah has no other choice.

If his physical condition continues to drag on, who knows what kind of weird appearance it will turn into, it must be resolved as soon as possible.

But Jonah didn't know what exactly he had stolen. Perhaps the only solution was to find out the source of the problem, which was the deepest part of the Dark Mountains.

The embarrassing problem lies in this place. Apart from being a little greedy for money, Jonah is a completely ordinary person. He doesn't have that talent in Originium skills. With weapons, he can even struggle to kill a feathered beast.

Although the physical changes brought him some special abilities, such as not being afraid of the cold, and being able to control a certain degree of air conditioning, but this only increased Jonah's strength from one Originium Insect to two Originium Insects, and went deep into the darkness alone. There is no difference between mountains and death.

In this case, the appearance of these outsiders gave Jonah a glimmer of hope.

Whether it is the people of Yan Kingdom or these scholars from Letania, if they enter the Dark Mountains, Jonah can secretly follow them. With these people opening the way in front, they should be able to block most of them. Most of the trouble.

The people of Yan Kingdom did not move for a long time, and Jonah did not dare to go to the door to urge them. The three Laitanian people had just arrived here. He originally wanted to wait a few days before making a decision, but the nightmare that night scared Joe a little bit. Na, he couldn't wait any longer.

"Hmm..." Li Ang nodded thoughtfully, "It's useless to think about this news? Just knowing that that person still lives in Hammerfest, but this city is so big, where am I going?" Looking for her?"

The expression on Jonah's face was a little tense, and he suspected that Li Ang was deliberately entertaining him. You must know that the more you talk, the more problems he will expose, but if you don't say anything, your success will fall short.

Sure enough, this kind of person who dares to run around is not the same type of existence as those stupid geese who have lost their minds.

With a forced smile, Jonah said in a broken jar, "Well... I have indeed heard some uncertain news."

"I would like to hear the details." Li Ang said with a slight smile.

After dropping a few more detailed messages, Jonah ran away in a panic.

This guy is still a little too immature. Although Li Ang is not particularly proficient in intrigue, he has been in the intriguing environment of Ball Pharmaceuticals for a while, and Jonah can't speak after a few words.

Watching his leaving back, Adele couldn't help but frowned, "This man...is a bit strange."

"It's very strange." Li Ang nodded in agreement.

"And, as an ordinary school teacher, doesn't he think he knows too much?"

The specific participants in the mountain festival a year ago, this is information that even Dali Temple has not collected. Even with the factor of being close to the water and getting the moon first, Jonah knows a bit too many secrets.

Moreover, the diametrically opposed attitudes of the two days before and after also confused Li Ang. What puzzled Li Ang the most was that Jonah came here to tell them this kind of information. What good is it for Jonah?

Although it seemed that they met by chance just now, who knows how long Jonah spent wandering outside in order to find them.

The two discussed for a long time, but they didn't discuss why.

In any case, Adele responded quite correctly.

Although the cooperation between them and Dali Temple is not a shady matter, Jonah obviously doesn't need to know about it. If someone instructed him behind his back, setting up a smoke bomb can buy some time.

"Then what should we do next? Shall we take a look at the place he mentioned?" Li Ang asked for Adele's opinion.

Later, the information Jonah gave was very detailed, enough for Li Ang and the others to determine the approximate location in the city.

Li Ang was a little moved. He could hear that Jonah was not aiming for nothing. There should indeed be such a person. If he went to get in touch with her, there might be some unexpected gains.

But before that, he needs to consider Adele's opinion. After all, Li Ang specially accompanied Adele to relax today.

"Then go and have a look." Adele replied after thinking about it.

After Jonah's interruption, she didn't intend to continue shopping. Although the time was not very long, Adele was already quite satisfied, and she herself was not the kind of person who indulged in pleasure.

After relaxing, it is always time to return to busy work.

Seeing that Adele had no objections, the two decided to go to the place Jonah said to find out, and they didn't go back to the residence to get the equipment. That would be too slow, and if they didn't wear the equipment, it wouldn't affect them very much. big.

The address Jonah mentioned was located in the outskirts far from the urban area, and it belonged to the kind of place where few people usually go back.

There are mostly warehouses, factories and other buildings. If you live in such a place, you will waste a lot of time even going out to buy groceries. Therefore, no matter how cheap the rent is, not many people are willing to live in such a desolate place. place.

In Li Ang's perception, there may be only 300-[-] people active in this urban area.

After finding the other party's residence based on the address, Li Ang knocked on the door very simply.

After a while, the door opened a gap, and an eye leaked out, asking in a low voice, "Who are you...?"

Chapter 64 西蒙娜

The other party only opened a very small gap, and the room was very dark, Adele could only see one pale golden eye, but Li Ang had already seen the other party through the room.

It was a woman who looked to be in her early 20s, and she should be the same age as Magellan, but because of her height, she looked more mature than Magellan. Her height was close to 1.7 meters, which was quite tall among women. that's it.

She has long hair that almost reaches her waist, and her left eye is also covered by bangs on her forehead. Under the cover of bangs, Li Ang perceives something else there.

This is an infected person.

Where the eyes should be, there is a finger-sized Origin Stone crystal, which is exactly the same as Li Ang's situation, but the other party's situation is obviously worse.

The source stone crystals in Li Ang's eyes are perfectly spherical, and there is no sign of growth. Apart from being unable to see, they are not much different from normal eyeballs.

But for this young girl, Origin Stone crystals grew out of her eye sockets, and her eyelids could not even be closed. Her originally beautiful appearance became hideous and terrifying because of this. No wonder she had to cover half of her face with her bangs.

This information flashed in Li Ang's mind, he didn't show anything on the surface, he greeted the other party politely, and then asked,

"Hello, is this Miss Simone?"

Hearing this, the girl behind the door nodded hesitantly, "It's me, what do you want from me?"

Li Ang said, "That's right, I heard that you..."

But just after he said a few words, the girl tried very hard to close the door, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Although she tried her best to deny it, the flash of panic in her words couldn't be faked, which also made Li Ang sure of one thing, Jonah really didn't lie to him just now.

"Don't worry, miss, I haven't finished my words yet." Li Ang took a step forward, and stood against the door that was about to be closed.

This girl named Simone was just a very ordinary person. Naturally, her Li Ang couldn't compare with Li Ang. The two sides were in a stalemate for a while, but if Li Ang wanted to, he could forcefully push the door open.

It's just that there is no need to do so now.

"I heard that you also participated in the mountain festival a year ago. I want to know something about this issue with you." Li Ang said lightly.

"I have nothing to say!" Simone said nervously. She pushed the door hard, trying to close the door, but the door did not move in her hands. "Let go quickly! Otherwise, I will call the police!"

Simone's voice was not particularly confident. After all, even if she called the police now, the day lily would have been cold by the time the police arrived.

"Miss Simone, I'm very sorry, please listen to us."

Adele walked to the other side and met Simone inside the door. She said very sincerely, "Do you remember those two scholars named Nauman? They are my parents, and I am investigating them You are the only person I have found who knows what happened back then, can you tell me what happened back then? Please!"

"If Miss Simone is willing to cooperate, we can actually sit down and discuss it. We don't want to make the atmosphere so stiff."

One of them sang the red face and the other sang the bad face. They have already cooperated very skillfully and tacitly.

Sure enough, Adele's words had completely attracted Simone's attention. She stared at Adele closely, and after looking at it for a while, she suddenly said, "Wait...you look a little familiar."

As soon as the words fell, Simone gave up fighting Li Ang, turned around and walked into the house.Li Ang didn't use much force, and the door creaked open, revealing the whole room in front of them.

What's going on here?

Both of them were a little puzzled. Looking at Simone's performance just now, it was as if they had seen Adele before.

Simone had already run back into the room, rummaging through a box on the ground, and after a while she ran back with a metal object.

"Are you talking about these two people?"

It was a small metal pendant. After pressing the button on the side, the shell of the pendant would pop open, revealing a photo hidden inside the pendant.

The photo shows the happy appearance of the Nauman family of three, but this photo may have been taken seven or eight years ago. Compared with that time, Adele has grown up in all aspects, so Simone That's why I didn't recognize it the first time.

It was only after hearing Adiar mention her parents that Simone associated the photo with her.

"Did you get this from?" Adele's heart tightened, she grabbed the pendant and asked.

While it's not clear where the pendant was previously kept, it was indeed her father's personal property and now it's in the hands of a stranger.

"...I'm sorry about their affairs."

After a period of silence, Simone said softly.

Adele felt that her heart missed a few beats, and she pressed her chest hard, finally calming herself down.

"Huh..." Taking a deep breath, Adele felt a little complicated.

Before that, there was an idea in a certain corner of her heart, if those people in Letania were lying to her, what if her parents were still alive, but imprisoned somewhere?

At that time, the news they got was only one-sided words of the tower warlocks. The information they investigated after they came to Sami only said that they lost the whereabouts of the Naumans. Even the existence of the notebook could not directly prove their death.

Now that one of the witnesses has personally admitted it, the little fantasy left in Adele's heart has also dissipated.

"What the hell happened to them?" Adele asked dryly, swallowing her saliva.

After confirming Adele's identity, Simone also let go of her hostility towards the two of them.

After hearing Adele's question, Simone hesitated for a moment, then gave way to the passage into the room, and said,

"The situation at that time... was very complicated, and I couldn't explain it clearly in a few words. Anyway, you guys come in first."

"excuse me."

This time, without Leondo saying anything, Adele stepped into the door without hesitation.

PS. There are a lot of things this week, try to restore the normal update time on weekends

Chapter 65 Part of the truth

Following Adele, they entered Simone's residence together.

It doesn't look like the residence of a young girl at all. The various furnishings inside are too simple, and there are almost no traces of people living here.

Based on these alone, Li Ang could roughly imagine what Simone looked like at ordinary times—sitting at the table like a statue, motionless, and a day passed without knowing it.

All in all, this girl named Simone looked a little strange. Compared with a living person, she was more like a puppet without self-will, and belonged to the type that would obey other people's orders.

In addition, there is a very special smell in the room.

Li Ang sniffed it carefully. It should be the smell of blood, disinfectant, and some kind of medicine. In the corner of the room, Li Ang also found some blood-stained bandages.

Simone is hurt?After tidying up the wound, I don't know how to dispose of the remaining garbage. Fortunately, in Sami, even the temperature inside the house is not too high. Otherwise, if those things stink, the smell in the house will definitely not be so good.

But it's a little strange... Such a strong smell doesn't seem to be formed overnight. Could it be that Simone lives in this place and is secretly doing something very dangerous?

These thoughts of Li Ang were only guesses. After taking them to the living room and sitting down, Simone said apologetically, "Sorry, there is nothing to entertain you."

"It's okay, can you tell me what you know now?" Adele said impatiently.

This was the first time she was so close to the truth, how could Adele not be excited?

"Okay, but..." Simone seemed a little hesitant, as if she didn't know where to start.

After struggling for a few seconds, Simone said as if giving up, "It's better to talk about it from the beginning."

"Actually... I am one of the candidates for this generation of Snow Priest."

As soon as she opened her mouth, Simone dropped a blockbuster on Li Ang and the others.

They were all very surprised. They did not expect that this seemingly ordinary girl actually had such a layer of identity. There is no need to go into details about the importance of Xue Si's status in Sami. They could actually see the meaning here. The snow priest of the reserve.

Suddenly, Li Ang's heart skipped a beat. Wouldn't Magellan's problem be cured by saying this?Li Ang was still thinking about how to get online with the snow priest in this country, but he didn't expect that someone would bring a pillow as soon as he fell asleep. The snow priest in the reserve is also considered a snow priest.

But now Li Ang still can't fully trust Simone, and this matter must be discussed at length.

"The Mountain Sacrifice...is it related to the inheritance of the Snow Sacrifice?"

Subconsciously, Adele made such a conjecture, if this is the case, then everything can be explained.

Why is the mountain festival clearly a tradition handed down by Sami since ancient times, but the residents here know little about the specific content of the mountain festival? aggression.

If it is related to the inheritance of Xue Si, it is easy to explain why the relevant information is so scarce.

Seeing the expression on Simone's face, Adele knew she had guessed right.

"Wait, let me know that this kind of thing is okay?" Immediately afterwards, Adele realized that after she guessed the truth, she would not be silenced by the Sami people, right?

"It's okay." Simone sighed, "Even if this kind of thing gets out now, it doesn't matter anymore."

Speaking of this, Simone's expression looked a little sad.

"There's something wrong with the mountain festival? Is it because of an accident a year ago?" Li Ang guessed.

Simone shook her head, "That's exactly what I want to tell you."

"We encountered an accident in order to find out why there was a problem with the mountain festival. It was not an accident that caused the problem with the mountain festival."

After some explanations from Simone, Li Ang realized that they had mistaken the causal relationship at the beginning. This is not a problem that can be ignored casually.
