Chapter 144 The Lair of Greed

The dark and deep underground secret realm is like an ant's nest, with countless twisted veins spreading in the mud in all directions.

And the core of this "ant nest" is a vast hall.

At this time, the hall was full of people.

A large number of apostles in gray cloaks are busy around several huge snake-shaped corpses, some are observing with a magnifying glass, while others are constantly digging lines on the surface, as if they are setting up some ceremony.

A mysterious man wearing a black cloak and a mask is sitting on a tall throne deep in the hall.

He is greedy.

Originally Greedy was overlooking everything below, but right now, he was distracted by a piece of news.

"Successful?" His tone was very surprised.

"Yes."

A thick voice answered.

It was a very scruffy-looking minotaur, brown-black skinned, tall and strong, compared with Greedy's current image, it was extremely powerful.

But at this time, the monster knelt at his feet, looking very submissive.

"Earl Kaman has locked the target in the dungeon, and has carefully determined that it is Andy himself."

"But how could it be so easy?"

Greed is weird about this.

He was framed before, which made him very embarrassed.

Who framed him could not be determined, but he suspected that it had something to do with that human named Andy.

After all, his apostle has been eyeing Andy for a long time, and he knows many strange things about Andy.

And more than a month ago, the coming of that trial can also be attributed to Andy - if Andy didn't fly on purpose, how could he pay attention to the dark forest, and then suffered heavy losses?
So even though there was no evidence, under anger, he was framed and ordered a certain confidant to carry out a kidnapping operation.

However, the order belongs to the order, and he actually has no hope for the success of this matter.

When he calmed down, he even forgot about it.

The reason is simple, with the protection of that archangel, it is impossible for his confidants to tie people up, and even the chance of getting close is very low.

However, right now, this impossible thing just happened...

He took a crystal ball from the Minotaur, tapped it twice, and a boy imprisoned in a dark dungeon emerged from it.

Leaning against the corner of the cell's rocky wall, the boy lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly, but it was indeed Andy.

I also carefully asked about the details of the kidnapping process, but also found nothing unusual.

So greed has a judgment on this.

"It's a trap."

Treasures that are easily obtained often contain dangers, and no one understands this truth better than him.

So after snorting lightly, he said to the minotaur at his feet: "I won't go there, ask Kaman to interrogate him, and report to me after finding out everything from York."

The Minotaur should be respectful upon hearing the words, then got up and left.

Greedy eyes turned to the group of busy apostles under the throne again.

In other words, he looked at several snake-shaped corpses surrounded by the apostles.

"You guys just grab it here slowly. I don't care about bullshit arrogance and authority anymore."

he thought with a sneer.

Others didn't know that he was framed, and thought he had the upper hand in the struggle for power.

But he himself knew what was going on.

Not only is he clear, he also knows that if he stays, he will be besieged sooner or later.

Therefore, he has completely lost the desire to fight for arrogant authority.

In fact, the idea of ​​quitting had already been born before being framed this time.

Because he faintly smelled something wrong.

That's why he took a group of apostles to the dark forest.

For the angels, the ancient snake corpse that can create the dark forest is a source of bad pollution.

But for him, it is a treasure worth studying.

Taking this treasure in hand, not to mention that it can make up for my own loss, is more or less a kind of comfort——

This is already the lowest "bottom line" for him who usually does not take advantage of it.

If he really wanted to leave in embarrassment without gaining anything, he would probably be depressed to death.

Therefore, when others were chasing the authority of arrogance and lies, he instead turned his mind on the ancient snake that no one cares about.

I thought that this kind of appeal to take the second place would not be an accident.

But the result was like a blow to the head, knocking him blind in an instant.

"But it doesn't matter, it's impossible for Adaniel to protect you forever."

Caressing the guard of the throne, he muttered to himself greedily, "Sooner or later you will fall into my hands, crying and begging to tell me which bastard is framing me..."

……

"Guess what His Majesty the Demon King is going to do?"

In a remote cave far away from the hall, several apostles were sitting on the ground, using special knives to process some herbs stained with soil.

Guy, who had participated in the dark forest search before, was busy cutting off the roots of the herbal medicine in his hand, while turning his head to ask his friend Robin beside him.

"do not know."

A friend named Robin replied with a dull voice, his face was still covered with layers of bandages, and he looked very sneaky in a hooded cloak.

However, this image is actually very common among the apostles.

Because their power comes from their respective demon masters, and the power of demons is not something that human bodies can fully adapt to.

Some apostles who have a good fit with their masters will not be troubled by this.But those who are not so matched, after gaining demonic power, various "complications" will appear.

The whole body is festering, pus-feeding, and foul-smelling, which is the most obvious one.

In this case, you need to wrap yourself tightly, so as not to make a fool of yourself, but also to avoid disgusting others.

"That's right, who can guess what that great existence thinks." Guy nodded, but his face was very smug.

"But it doesn't matter if you can't guess, it's important that we are very close to His Majesty now."

This is actually an honor.

Because usually, it is impossible for apostles like them to get close to a demon king.

Only the direct descendant of the Demon King has this qualification.

But right now, after a large number of colleagues died, there is a shortage of manpower, but their status has been greatly improved.

Already qualified to approach and serve the devil himself.

For example, the treatment of herbs at the moment.

"I guess it has something to do with the struggle for power."

An apostle next to him continued: "They said that His Majesty has an advantage now, but if he wants to maintain it, he needs to do something more."

"So, do something?"

"I don't know, maybe trying to summon the main body to descend?"

"Isn't Your Majesty the main body now?"

"How could it be so casual..."

Chatting like a small talk, the working hours passed quickly.

After a busy day, I was finally able to rest.

After the group of apostles finished processing the herbal medicine, they made an appointment to go to the game hall specially built by the devil for the apostles to play.

Guy is also one of them.

But halfway through the walk, he suddenly found that his friend Robin, who was supposed to come with him, disappeared inexplicably.

"really weird."

Therefore, he murmured secretly, "Why is that guy always so mysterious recently?"

It's suspicious.

But as the devil's apostle, being mysterious doesn't seem to be a special thing, so Guy was relieved in an instant.

But after such a delay, he fell behind a group of people instead.

The rest time is limited, Guy didn't think about it anymore, and was about to speed up his pace to catch up, when a figure glimpsed out of the corner of his eye made him suddenly startled.

"A deer?"

He was taken aback by this.

But before he could react, his eyes suddenly went dark, and then he didn't know anything!

　There may only be two updates in the last few days, my friends.
