Chapter 145 There are people from the Black Vatican here!!!
"What exactly do you want me to do?" Su Ming asked.
He sensed that the prison guard meant no harm. It seemed that he was trapped here and, like them, wanted to leave. Temporary cooperation was not out of the question.
Moreover, it seems that Jiang Shaotian and his group have already started cooperating, otherwise, they wouldn't be able to stay here so peacefully.
"It's very simple. I'll be holding a competition later. You just need to deliberately lose, and then I can recruit you to our camp. That's it," Lao Da said.
"Well then, good luck. There's no such thing as an enemy here. The two camps are just a general division. You can stay here; you might even run into someone you know." Lao laughed loudly, his voice fading into the distance.
Su Ming blinked, somewhat confused. It seemed everyone's perception was different, but that was normal, given their different perspectives.
Su Ming did not go back. Since he was going to investigate, he would investigate thoroughly. He also needed to visit the two palaces later to test them. According to them, he would not die here. Even if something unexpected happened, it would not matter. It would be best if nothing unexpected happened.
There was no signal here, so even if he had a phone, it wouldn't be of much use, and it seemed like it couldn't be charged. Su Ming put the phone back in his pocket; the expensive item he had just bought for several thousand dollars was now useless.
The architectural styles on both sides are similar: flat stone houses without doors or windows. The roads are crisscrossed and complex, like a maze, except for the two palaces which can be seen at a glance.
Su Ming jumped onto the roof so he could see further.
From the ground, the two palaces seemed close at hand, but once you jumped onto the roof, the view changed. The two palaces were about ten kilometers apart, and between them were small earthen houses.
"That's too big." Su Ming sighed. A range of ten kilometers, as observed with the naked eye, seemed a bit outrageous. When he was standing on the ground, it felt like only one or two kilometers.
Spatial distortion?
Having experienced Helan Mountain, Su Ming felt it wasn't anything special; perhaps it was just a change in perspective.
Su Ming began his journey towards the palace of the White Prison, stopping and starting along the way. There weren't many pedestrians on the road, and he occasionally saw a few, some of whom he recognized.
I've seen this place before when I was in the Hunter's Alliance. Most of the people here are hunters, and some are from the military and the Magic Association.
They only glanced at Su Ming running around on the rooftop before losing interest. They had done the same thing when they first arrived, but they gave up after a while, preferring to settle down here quietly.
Compared to the outside world, it's at least safe here, and you don't have to worry about dying. However, not many people think this way; most still want to go out, but the harsh reality forces them to give up.
boom! ! ! !
A loud cracking sound drew Su Ming's attention. He stopped; the massive block of ice had frozen the surrounding earthen houses, and he could clearly sense the magical fluctuations within.
That's high-level ice magic; someone cast a spell here.
"Oh dear, they're fighting again. This little girl is really persistent. She won't die here. What can she do even if the other party is from the Black Vatican?" An uncle who heard the commotion stopped and sighed. Judging from his appearance, he had seen this kind of thing many times before.
"Uncle, if you're not going to help, don't make sarcastic remarks. That's the Black Vatican. If I could, I'd like to wipe them out myself." A girl said indignantly.
"You think I don't want to?" the uncle retorted. Su Ming jumped down from the roof. He had heard about the Black Vatican, which piqued his interest. He wondered where these people from the Black Vatican had gotten so much free time; they were looking for him not only in the ancient capital, but even all the way to Helan Mountain.
If he encounters a shady family, Su Ming will eliminate them one by one; it's infuriating.
"Um, what's this Black Vatican you're talking about?" Su Ming walked up to the uncle and asked.
"I don't know you, newbie?" the uncle asked, somewhat puzzled.
Su Ming nodded. "I just got here and don't know the situation yet. I came because I heard you were talking about the Black Vatican."
"I see. It's alright to talk about it, but I suggest you don't provoke the Black Vatican. They're not going to kill you here, and you'll be in danger yourself," the uncle advised earnestly.
Could you elaborate on what happened?
The uncle and another girl exchanged a glance. The girl, Zheng Yin, stepped forward and said, "It's true that no one will die here, but not dying doesn't mean it's absolutely safe. Although everyone here seems relaxed, everyone is on edge, especially us from the White side."
When those Black Vatican members appeared, we organized a task force to suppress them. We had the task force, but everyone who attacked the Black Vatican disappeared. The leader who organized the task force also disappeared. Later, the task force disbanded. Some people still disapproved of the Black Vatican and continued to act, but without exception, they all disappeared. The only one who didn't disappear was that girl, but she didn't know what happened either. That's why there seem to be fewer of us on the White Side.
Disappearance doesn't mean death, but it does mean disappearance. Jiang Shaotian and the others couldn't possibly be unaware of this. The reason they haven't mentioned it is probably because they all know it and feel there's no need to say it.
"Thank you." Su Ming hurried over there; he needed to check on the situation.
He wanted to take action against the Black Vatican, but he was worried about getting entangled with something. After all, the person who could organize this place must be a super-level mage. Just look at Zu Chuanshuo and Jiang Shaotian. No one without a super-level mage would be qualified.
Even a high-level mage has disappeared; he can't guarantee he'll be safe.
"Mu Ganjin!?" Su Ming's eyes widened as he stared at the stunningly beautiful girl with flowing silver hair inside the circle of ice. It was indeed Mu Ganjin. Su Ming knew she had entered the ancient tomb, but he hadn't expected that she was the only one here. There were many ice mages, and it was too difficult to make the connection.
Su Ming knew Mugan Jin, and he also knew the man from the Black Vatican.
Moreover, they were very familiar with each other, and they had even spent three years together. Han Bing, a member of the Han family!
He's one of the Black Vatican's men!
"Are you out of your mind? You won't die here, you won't die! What good will it do you to do this? All those high-level mages have disappeared, but you're like a leech, sticking to me like glue. Aren't you tired?!" Han Bing roared. He comes to see him every few days, and every time he comes, he has to change his place of residence. It's so annoying.
"If you find this troublesome, don't become a lackey of the Black Vatican. You're already a lackey, why are you still causing so much trouble?" Muganjin conjured an ice lock, sealing off Hanbing's movements.
Han Bing's ice magic was his pride and joy, but his ice was too weak in front of Mu Gan Jin, and he couldn't compare at all. Moreover, he couldn't bring in the Black Beast Cursed Beast here, so he had no choice but to take the beating.
