Only then did Chen Bofu hear Armitage get down to business.

"Priest Chagong, let's not talk about the reform plan for those rituals. In fact, I have another thing to discuss with you." Armitage lit the pipe and took a slow drag.

"You said it." Chagong smiled.

Compared with the natives along the coast, Chagong was obviously more "human". He didn't show much resistance to the strangers in this room. Instead, he was polite when greeting him, without showing any hint of guilt. The barrier between land and coast.

"I want to talk to you about Ihasrae," Armitage said.

The dim light of the oil lamp in the room kept flickering, but no matter how close it was placed on the table to the two of them, it seemed unable to illuminate the face of the Chagong priest hidden under his hood.

"Ihasrei..."

Priest Chagun murmured, his tone gradually becoming curious.

"Why did you suddenly mention this?"

For members of the esoteric cult like Chagong, Yihasre is definitely a taboo, because it is the place where the gods live, and even mentioning it occasionally will have an inexplicable sense of blasphemy.

"There is progress in completing the history of the Old Sea." Armitage said calmly, "Ihasre, Luoyan City, the three ancient gods, we have the opportunity to complete the blank information related to them. .”

Priest Chagun nodded and signaled for Armitage to continue.

"You should know that I have been searching for information about the three ancient gods..." Armitage slowly took out a piece of white paper with many writings left by pens on it, like some kind of mathematics. Formulas, but written in some ancient and unfamiliar language.

In the center of the white paper, there is a totem similar to Dagon, and there are many patterns of unknown meaning...

This was the reassurance Armitage gave Chagun.

It was just "refined" just before Chagong landed on the island.

While Chagoon was carefully examining the writing on the white paper, Armitage suddenly threw out the biggest bait.

"I have a way to open the road to Luoyan City."

Chapter 595: The Second Priest Shagong (Part 2)

"I remember you weren't the type to joke around."

Chagun moved his eyes away from the white paper covered with writing, and stared at Armitage with his eyes hidden in the darkness.

"If I heard correctly, did you just say that you could open that legendary passage?"

"That's right." Armitage replied without changing his expression, "The singularity in the deep sea is the only passage to Luoyan City. I have a way to open it."

After receiving the affirmative answer from Armitage, the Chagon priest suddenly fell silent.

Instantly.

Apart from the faint sound of the burning oil lamp, there was no other sound in the house.

"I don't know if this guy will believe it..."

Chen Jing felt a little uneasy. Thinking of the "lie" Armitage told them before, he could only pray that Chagong, the fish-man, would believe it.

Perhaps sensing Chen Jing's anxiety, Su Ye, who was sitting in the corner of the living room, blinked at him with a slight smile on his lips, as if to tell him not to worry. After all, Professor Armitage was very concerned about this priest named "Sagun". I really understand...

"Tell me in detail." Sha Gong finally spoke, and his tone became cautious when talking about a series of topics related to Luoyan City.

"These two are talented people I found from the mainland. They are responsible for assisting us in opening the deep sea singularity..." Armitage looked at Chen Jing and the others who were sitting in the corner.

"Inland people?" Chagong smiled noncommittally.

"This is my classmate at Miskatonic University, Wang Zhengyi, and the young man next to him is his grandson. They are very similar to me. They are very curious about the history of the old times, but in the past they focused on correcting internal problems. Lu’s old history…”

As Armitage spoke, he began to fool around, and by the way, he introduced the origins of Chen Jing and the others to Cha Gong.

to be frank.

When he heard the name "Wang Zhengyi", Chen Jing almost couldn't help laughing, because he subconsciously thought of the founder of Shisanxiang in the world...

Chen Bofu on the side also had a bad expression. Although he tried his best to cooperate with Armitage's acting, he couldn't help but move his mouth a few times.

at this distance.

Chen Jing could probably read his lips.

The content is only four words.

"Your mother, the king."

I have to say that Armitage is a capable person. Despite his scholarly appearance, he is not a nerd. He does one thing after another when trying to fool his own people.

It lasted no more than two minutes.

Chagong no longer had any doubts about the identity of Chen Bofu and his grandson.

"So... do you think your old classmate can open the deepest taboo of Ihasrei by bringing his grandson?"

"Yes." Armitage nodded without hesitation.

"How to open it?" Chagong asked dubiously.

"Can't say." Armitage shook his head.

This immediately gave Shagun a hard time, because he really didn't expect Armitage to answer like that.

"This old classmate of yours is Sequence Six, right? His grandson is only Sequence Five..." Cha Gong turned his head and glanced at the corner of the living room. Although he could tell Chen Jing's Sequence level at a glance, he couldn't. He could see the rank of the old man who was at the same level as him before he disguised himself.

Armitage could hear the suspicion in Chagun's tone, but he wasn't surprised and just continued the lie leisurely.

"So I need your help."

"Me?" Cha Gong was startled, but he didn't expect the topic to suddenly come to him again.

"They have a medium that can open the singularity in the deep sea, but with their strength they are unable to dive deep into Ihasrei, so they must have your assistance..." Armitage said, his tone as calm as if he was describing the facts. .

Hearing this, Chagon could not help but be silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about the authenticity of these words... However, with Armitage as his guarantee, Chagon did not think about it for too long, but directly made a request.

"Show me the medium."

Upon hearing this, Armitage immediately glanced at Chen Jing and signaled him to take out the relic.

Since this was part of the plan, Chen Jing didn't think much. He raised his hand and took out the relic from his large sweater pocket...the horn of Luoyan City.

During this process, Chen Boxu kept a close eye on him.

Once the Chagong Priest makes any unscrupulous move, he will kill the other party in an instant, and then kill Armitage, a useless piece of trash. If he can't be killed...then he will fight to the death first, and then Then follow Chen Jing back to deep space to take refuge. It won't be too late to hide for a while and then come out.

"This...there is the aura of Ihasrei on it..."

Cha Gong looked at the conch in Chen Jing's hand in disbelief, and was so excited that he stood up for a moment, because he could intuitively feel... the kind of aura that only the Deep Sea Familia could feel!

That is the breath of Ihasrei, and the breath of Dagon!

Extremely pure!

No impurities!

Even the altar blessed by Dagon in the secret sect headquarters is probably not as pure as this ordinary conch...

"Just take a look." Chen Bofu coughed.

After hearing this, Chen Jing also put away the conch, and then looked at Priest Chagong silently. Although he still had a friendly smile on his face, he was already prepared in his heart to deal with Chagong's sudden rise. Prepare.

But it's okay.

Armitage's prediction proved correct.

Chagon did not directly snatch it, because he could see how fragile the relic was, and it would be very likely to be destroyed once it was affected by the battle. Moreover, Armitage was also involved, so it would be safe to rashly take action. Not a good idea.

"Let's talk." Priest Chagon slowly sat back and tried his best to calm down the wild emotions in his heart. "Even if Armitage wants to help us restore the history of the Old Sea, he will take away some things after completing the work. As a reward, this should be the same for you, inland people..."

"We also want to go to Luoyan City." Chen Jing said calmly.

"You are not overestimating your own capabilities." Cha Gong sneered, "Even if the gate of Luoyan City is wide open, I may not dare to set foot inside. With your strength... what is the difference between entering and dying? The ancient god is sleeping there. The forbidden place!"

"Don't worry about this." Chen Bofu clasped his ears, with a hint of impatience in his seemingly calm tone, "We just want to go in and see the murals, observe the miracles of the old era, and catch some A living sample of an 'Abyss Slug'..."

Hearing Chen Bofu mention the name "Abyss Slug", Chagong glanced at Armitage subconsciously, with a hint of realization in his eyes.

"I understand... you are here for this... pursuing the legendary 'immortality' is your real purpose!"

Chapter 596: The First Connection between the Temple and Kakosha (Part 1)

In fact, before coming into contact with Armitage, neither Chen Boxu nor Chen Jing knew anything about the creature "Abyss Slug", and it could even be said that they had never even heard of the name.

You must know that this is based on Chen Jing's acceptance of King Huang's memory.

in other words.

Even King Huang didn't know there were such strange creatures in the world.

"The Abyss Slug, also called Tuluni Taka, is a soft-bodied creature that only exists in coastal legends. It is inextricably linked to Luoyan City. It is said that their tribe has always been hidden in Luoyan City."

"So what does this have to do with the reason you asked us to make up?"

"It matters, because this is your bargaining chip..."

According to Armitage, rumors about this strange creature have almost disappeared in modern times. Even the indigenous people may not know about this thing. Only a handful of people know enough about the Old Sea. Only they know that this creature is also known as the "Elixir of Immortality".

As the name suggests.

If you eat this thing, you can really live forever.

But who has taken it and confirmed its "curative effect", and where did this rumor come from? Armitage can't tell why, but these are not important. What is important is that having chips is enough. .

"It seems that you are not satisfied with the long life span of Sequence Six." Priest Chagong looked at Chen Bofu and murmured, "You really believe in the legend of Tuluni Taka. You really think there is something that can make the old The elixir of immortality?"

"Luoyan City is also a legend." Chen Bofu spoke, his voice hoarse and dull, with an inexplicable sense of oppression, "But it is right in front of us."

"Professor, do you just believe me so much?" Priest Chagon looked back at Armitage and suddenly laughed, "Aren't you afraid that I will find a way to kill people and get goods?"

"You're not that kind of person." Armitage smiled, "What's more, they also have their own methods. If you have to fight to the death, you won't get any benefits...Compared to taking risks to kill people and steal goods, I think cooperation Win-win is the only option, after all, the significance of that legendary city to your Dagon Esoteric Cult cannot be described in words."

Hearing this, Chagong fell silent.

What Armitage said was not groundless.

Luoyan City, a singularity in the deep sea.

These undersea ruins that are closely related to the ancient gods are of extraordinary significance to the Dagon Esoteric Cult. If we can really find the eternal mansion where the ancient gods sleep...

"This cooperation is different from our previous cooperation." Priest Chagon said cautiously, "I need to seek other people's opinions."

"I advise you not to do this." Armitage smiled.

"Why?" Chagun looked at Armitage warily.

"Unless you want to share the credit with someone else."

Armitage let out a long sigh, as if he was really confiding in an old friend with deep feelings.

"I know what's going on inside your secret sect, so... you can regard these words as the advice of a friend. Anyway, I won't harm you."

……

In fact, the relationship between Armitage and Chagun is very complicated.

They are like close friends who appreciate each other, and they are also like cunning businessmen who take advantage of each other. They all have a "degree" for each other, that is, no matter how they use each other, there will be a bottom line...

"I'm helping you partly for Shen Kong's sake, and the other half for your grandfather's sake." Armitage had said this to Chen Jing straight to the point before, "But Chagong is also me. My friend, I feel a little sorry for lying to him like this."

"So what do you mean?" Chen Jing didn't understand what Amitage was thinking at the time, so he could only wait for him to give a clear answer.

"I can help you, but you have to promise not to harm him no matter what..." When Armitage said these words, his expression did not look like he was joking, and there was a trace of determination in his contradictory eyes. "Although we have used each other over the years, it is all a matter of position. I don't want him to die because of me... Do you understand what I mean?"

Chen Jing gave an affirmative answer without hesitation at that time, and assured that he had no ill intentions towards the Dagon Tantric Cult and the Chagong priests.

Chen Boxu, on the other hand, remained the same, snorting and saying nothing, but this was considered a guarantee in a certain sense. After all, he didn't refuse directly, right?

Of course, this guarantee is based on the condition of one's own safety. If the priest Chagun poses any threat to their grandfather and grandson, then it is reasonable... to kill Chagon, Armitage has nothing to say.

"If it weren't for your status as a deep space resuscitator, this kind of cooperation could actually be discussed openly..." Armitage was still sighing at that time, with these two grandfathers and grandsons who have long been "wanted" by the world. , he couldn't think of a better way to solve this matter in a short time.

So, keep your fingers crossed.

Pray that everything goes well and don't start a fight, otherwise you will be in big trouble!
