Chapter 58: Arthur's Response
"This is an accident. An accident happened during the process. I have inevitably attracted the attention of the two major religions, so I created an opportunity for them to meet unexpectedly."
Arthur was stunned. Ye Lan really said it too simply, so simple that he needed time to think clearly what it meant.
"You mean, the Church of Sunset thinks that the Church of Decay did it?"
Ye Lan shook his head.
"Not really, but their two teams will 'unexpectedly meet'."
And then...what else do I need to say?
There was no sound on the intercom.
"How much do you think you will succeed?"
Yo, Arthur, something is wrong with you. You seem to be looking forward to this result more than I am!
"Ninety percent."
Ninety percent!
After a few breaths of silence, Arthur's voice sounded a little hurried.
"Don't go, don't go! Believe me once, Sewage Town will never betray your hiding place!"
Huh? What do you mean don't go? Where should I go?
After a long pause, Ye Lan realized what he meant and found it a little funny.
Arthur was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the pressure from the two major religions and sell him out, so he did not dare to hide in this basement and turned around and left!
He was indeed quite worried. Just like Ye Lan thought that his plan had a 90% chance of success, the Sunset God Cult and the Rotten God Cult were mutually restrained by the confrontation and their own goals, and they were busy with their own affairs. Even if Arthur and the innkeeper had a 90% chance of not selling him out, wouldn't there still be a 10% chance of selling him out?
At that time, the Sunset God Cult directly blocked him in this basement, how would he deal with it?
But the problem was that Arthur didn't know that he couldn't die in theory.
It's one thing to be defeated, and it's another thing to be unable to die.
For the time being, he had nowhere to go. Once he lost the "ally" of Sewage Town, it would be even more difficult to investigate and act, and Ye Lan himself was not ready to leave.
But... this time Arthur took the initiative to speak, so he had to bargain!
There was only one most essential core contradiction between the two sides, which was that they would most likely turn against each other in the end, and Ye Lan was unwilling to go to that step.
"You need me to help you deal with the two great cults, right?"
Arthur was silent, then spoke.
"It doesn't have to be like that, it just needs to interfere and stop some things."
Isn't that the same...
Many things can be understood by just looking at the actions. Now he is like a powerful troublemaker in a chaotic situation. Arthur is unwilling to let him go and tries every means to win him over. What else can he do except the two great cults at the center of the vortex?
"But I heard that you have a close relationship with the Rotten Cult."
Arthur was silent.
"Ask me for help, what are you prepared to pay? Not to mention the hiding place in this basement, and the equipment, gasoline, and ammunition you gave. Those are ordinary things. Between us and even the two great cults, what anyone wants cannot be measured by them, right?"
Arthur was still silent.
"You haven't even told me what the Chaos Turntable is until now."
Arthur was still silent.
"Finally." Ye Lan smiled with a relaxed look.
"Why do you think I want to get less here than the two great cults?"
After saying this, Ye Lan himself was a little nervous. Whether it is heading towards a rupture or going further, it is basically at this moment.
He didn't know what the two major religions wanted, but he knew very well that he was here to take the abnormality.
"I can't afford what the two major religions want." Arthur considered his words and fell into confusion and entanglement, feeling like he had just escaped from the wolf pack and fell into the tiger's mouth.
But he also confirmed one thing, in Ye Lan's tone, there was no fear of the two major religions at all, and even, there was a faint confidence in confrontation?
"What do you want?"
This question... Ye Lan didn't know how to answer, as if he suddenly understood why Arthur was silent when he asked the question just now.
Is this something that can be said?
"Take away something that is so valuable that it cannot be measured."
On the other end of the intercom, Arthur raised his eyebrows.
"Will it cost human lives?"
"No."
"Will it affect the future of Sewage Town?"
After two questions, Ye Lan looked at Arthur differently.
Do you care about the people of Sewage Town...
"No. If I must say yes, it will only be better."
Only better?
Arthur frowned, not agreeing with this answer.
How many people are doing terrible things under the banner of making others better?
"I can't promise to agree to your conditions, but I hope you can come to my house tonight to talk. I will at least tell you part of the answer to the chaos turntable, and you can also reveal more about your purpose, and I will relax the maximum conditions to satisfy your appetite."
Arthur's voice paused.
"But don't worry, no matter what the result is, you can now be very safe in that basement to survive the search of the two major cults."
Ye Lan nodded.
"Okay."
In the town guard office, Arthur put down the intercom. His face was extremely calm.
Then, he suddenly couldn't help laughing.
"Haha... Hahahaha! Awesome! Awesome! Do you know how much you helped?"
Arthur reached under the drawer, pressed the switch of the secret passage again, walked in, and just muttered to himself with doubts.
"But we still have to be on guard... What is your purpose?"
In the basement of the Sewage Inn, Ye Lan leaned on the sofa, drank ice water, and took a short rest.
Yes, ice water, there is even a refrigerator here. However, this ice water is still a cup of drink, either sewage drink or sewage special. It’s just that Ye Lan was in a daze, and it seems that he doesn’t care much.
It is said that humans can adapt to any environment in three days. Although it is impossible to accept eating things like "Thousand Mosquito Spider Silk Cake" and "Devil Cockroach Noodles" even if they have another hundred years, drinking sewage is gradually no longer a problem.
The most important thing is... thinking about things in a daze has occupied all his brain cells, so that he can’t even feel the taste of things.
Arthur... What should I say when I look for him at night? Should I say it? Can I really say it?
After all, the moral standards are still at the level before the end of the world. I can’t play too dirty, or I can’t play dirty with people who have friendship.
And most importantly, I can’t get through here alone. The support of Sewage Town is crucial in all aspects.
The reason why Ye Lan was still ready to talk was because he felt that there was a suitable price for everything, as long as he could pay the conditions that moved the other party.
Arthur had a heart that was all for Sewage Town, and this was the most trustworthy point. If a good enough future could be planned for Sewage Town, then even the abnormality would be a completely acceptable price. In the words of the Cat of the Heart, as long as Arthur had not been bewitched by the abnormality, he would know that the best result was that the abnormality was taken away by the right person.
Moreover... the purpose of the Afterglow Cult and the Rotten Cult was also very thought-provoking. What kind of purpose would make Arthur choose such a desperate and irreconcilable situation?
Creak.
There was a sound of being pushed from the top wooden board of the basement. Ye Lan narrowed his eyes, added a new magazine to the revolver, and aimed at the entrance.
