Doomsday Mage Summons the Undead

Chapter 278 Who is he talking to?

The eve of dawn.

The storm carried roaring thunder and raged in all directions, bringing darkness and majesty to the town.

The sleepless mayor sat in his luxurious study, showing his dignity as the head of power in this place with a noble and peaceful posture.

The walls of the study are inlaid with gorgeous carvings, and golden lights dance on the walls, bringing a touch of warmth and illumination to the space.

The mayor sat in front of the large oak desk as usual, staring with complicated eyes at a letter in his hand that he had read hundreds of times.

He has read it hundreds of times because it is his destiny book.

The letter read:

[You are living a happy life instead of living a happy life. This makes me very happy. The homeless boy who lived in a homeless place and suffered a lot by looking at people has grown up. 】

[But do you remember that I once told you that you can stare into the abyss, but don't stop. 】

[I once told you that this world is like this. You will meet all kinds of people, you will encounter incomprehensible malice, and you will feel disappointed. But as soon as you get over it, you will find that these are actually reminding you not to Become such a person. 】

[I once told you that the purpose of experience is to guide you, not to define you. 】

[I once said to you, chase the river and the moon with the gentle wind, follow the teachings of the years with a sincere heart, emerge from the mud without being stained, and cross the abyss without falling into it. 】

[Do you still remember that you once said to me with shining eyes,]

【You want everyone in the world to be able to have land for those who till the land, and for everyone to have a house for the people who live there. 】

[But, to this day, I have no words to say to you anymore. 】

[Everything in the world has its own place]

The mayor looked at the last sentence in the letter quietly.

Everything in the world has its own place

The sky outside the window was so gloomy that it was almost dark, and the heart-pounding raindrops kept tapping on the window. The sound was like an intermittent whisper, as if conveying some unknown fate to the world.

The mayor heard the thunder roaring outside. They were like the angry shouts of heaven, seeming to herald his imminent end.

The mayor's face remained resolute, without the slightest hint of fear.

His white hair shone silvery in the room light, and his calm eyes revealed thoughtful wisdom.

His fingers lightly brushed against the golden stamp on the letter, an ancient imprint.

The seal badge is not only ancient, but it is also a symbol that can make the king-like Lord of Huangsha City surrender unconditionally to anything he asks for.

A bunch of large and plump ears of wheat.

A blooming tulip.

constitutes this seal symbolizing supreme power.

This is Apostle Natasha's personal seal badge.

If you can add a sentence to this seal: Those who hold this belief can be the city lord of a certain place.

I am afraid that any king-like city lord will immediately give up his throne.

This is what the seal represents, supreme power.

But at this moment, this seal appeared here.

appeared in such a letter.

The mayor slowly turned his head, his deep eyes seeming to carve the scene of this room where he had been for decades into the depths of his soul.

The study room was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood and an aura of tranquility.

There are all kinds of books lined up on the bookshelves. They silently guard the treasure house of knowledge and bear witness to the wisdom and insights of the town mayor as the absolute ruler of this place.

The mayor raised his head and looked out the window at the stormy scene.

In the darkness, lightning pierced the sky, and magical light penetrated the dark clouds, showing the power of nature and the mysterious atmosphere like a miracle.

The thunder was even more deafening, as if the world was shaking at the end of that thunder and lightning.

There is a sharp contrast between the luxurious study room and the outside world.

The candlelight in the room flickered, illuminating everything around the mayor, but they could not penetrate the darkness and wet cold outside the window.

After the believer arrived, the mayor noticed a hint of chill.

After the believer left, the chill completely disappeared in a short period of time.

But not long after, the chill that seemed to freeze the soul appeared again.

Moreover, it is even colder than when the believers were there before.

This was also the main reason why the mayor was restless in the bedroom and came to the study.

Because the mayor remembered a detail that ordinary people would not pay attention to.

The deepening coldness increased rapidly not long after he vaguely hinted to Du Lu to get rid of Cheng Xiao's trouble.

The mayor felt the chill brought by the roaring storm outside and smiled silently.

Suddenly, lightning flashed across the night sky, reflecting the mysterious smile on the mayor's face.

There was endless wisdom and calmness in his brows.

The mayor took an ink pen, dipped it in the ink gently, and prepared to write his last will and testament.

His handwriting is smooth and powerful, and his hopes and blessings for this town are expressed between the lines.

After the will was completed, he rolled it up carefully and placed it in a suitcase beside him, preparing to deliver it to those who would inherit his power.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the luxurious study was dignified and sublime, like a majestic temple, and the mayor became a god in this temple.

His presence means order and tranquility, and his departure will trigger an unpredictable change in this town.

However, he is full of confidence in the future. He believes that even after his death, this town will continue to prosper because he left endless wisdom and blessings in his hands.

If there are bystanders who don't know the whole story watching, they will definitely think so.

And the ghosts all over the study have reported to the school what the mayor wrote word for word.

"The things written by the mayor are weird, such as the start-up process of the factory assembly line, the supply and sales routes of goods that account for the bulk of the local tax revenue, as well as the connecting channel information, and various development plans based on ten years in the future. Some people have the ability to take over. Names of officials holding important positions in the government."

After the ghost reported his analysis to the school, he added: "I always feel like the mayor is writing a suicide note. He seems to know that he is being watched. Is he doing this deliberately to give his master a good sense?"

The school was very efficient and quickly screened the contents of the suicide note left by the mayor.

The summary is: there are no plans left. If the town develops according to the mayor's suicide note, it will surely prosper. Moreover, the names of the officials who will take over have also been investigated. Although they have their own shortcomings, their flaws cannot be concealed. They can do their jobs well after taking over.

Finally, the school, which had screened a huge amount of information, reported to Qi Lin that the mayor seemed to have discovered the existence of a ghost, and suddenly left a suicide note planning all aspects of the town's future. Judging from the content of the suicide note after review and deduction, the suicide note plan All things considered, the mayor is really talented and practical. In addition, the school speculates that if the discovery of the ghost is true, it should be a sign of the cold energy field caused by the gathering of ghosts. The school believes that if the mayor discovered the ghost, He just wrote a suicide note, so he should want to use it to create a new sensory impression for his master and gain a glimmer of hope for himself. After completing the report, he is waiting for further instructions from his master.

At the same time, the storm outside reached its peak, roaring like a furious beast and sweeping across the earth.

Thunder rumbled, as if saying goodbye.

However, the mayor sat unmoved at his desk, quietly waiting for the direction of his destiny.

On this stormy night, he looked through the glass window and saw the last flash of lightning streaking across the sky.

As the thunder gradually disappeared and the wind and rain slowly subsided, the mayor closed his eyes.

He heard footsteps.

But he did not summon any waiters.

The owner of these footsteps

The mayor already guessed who it was.

Boom boom.

There was a polite knock on the door.

"Please come in."

The confusion in the mayor's voice was just right.

The heavy study door was pushed open.

Qi Lin's soaked sneakers stepped on the expensive handmade carpet in the mayor's study, leaving water marks.

Qi Lin walked to the desk and sat down. With his cloak lifted, he placed the silver needle on the table with his pale fingers.

"Your things were lost, and I found them for you."

Qi Lin stared with a look on his face, 'Didn't you leave? How to go and come back? ’ The puzzled mayor.

The mayor, who originally had a puzzled look on his face, suddenly froze when he saw the silver needle.

Did this believer go to the factory before?

But he obviously didn’t go south?

Also, how did he find it underground in such a short period of time?

Even if the magic trap on the factory surface fails, he can't find it in such a short time!

Also, since he can discover this, what about the magic circle hidden deep underground?

That is the biggest life-saving trump card!

The possibility of leaking the biggest trump card made the mayor panic for a moment.

In the face of Qi Lin's dimensionality reduction and strike methods, how smart?

Vulnerable.

After a brief moment of panic, the mayor said decisively: "This thing is called a needle. It can extract the blood of living beings and extract a certain magical liquid. The liquid can make up for the consumption of vitality caused by using the extraordinary."

"continue."

The mayor looked at Qi Lin who showed no emotion, gritted his teeth and said, "This was obtained from the Huangsha restricted area more than thirty years ago, when the expedition team I was part of was excavating an alien ruins. Later, we encountered a sandstorm and everyone on the expedition died. I got this needle, and later came to the steam town, and accidentally discovered the function of the needle during a horse bandit attack."

"What kind of ruins?" Qi Lin asked.

The mayor thought for a while and recalled: "It was a room surrounded by steel walls. There were many mummies in it, and there was also a room full of various alien tools that should be called computers. Believers know what electricity is."

"I know, continue." Qi Lin raised his hand to indicate for him to continue.

"Although those tools didn't respond at all, the Huangsha Chamber of Commerce would still pay a high price for them, so we packed up everything there and prepared to sell it at a good price. But then we encountered a sandstorm, except for needles, which were small things that could be carried with us. , everything else was buried in the yellow sand."

After Qi Lin heard this, he sighed softly.

I thought I could get some clues about the murderer from here.

But now it seems that there is no chance.

As for whether the mayor would lie?

Qi Lin didn't believe that such a smart person would lie.

However, this does not mean that Qi Lin completely listens to his words.

After a short wait.

The black wind came in big strides.

And brought a polygraph crystal.

I was walking in a hurry just now, and the crystal was still there with Black Wind.

After some further questioning, it was confirmed that what the mayor said was true.

The needle was obtained from the Blood Sea restricted area of ​​Huangsha and has nothing to do with any other person or force.

After Qi Lin asked what he wanted to know, out of the corner of his eye he glanced at Natasha's letter to the mayor on the desk.

At first, after the mayor got the letter, he put it away after reading it.

But now, the letter was spread out within Qi Lin's reach.

The seal badge composed of plump wheat ears and tulips occasionally flashed with golden light.

Moreover, Qi Lin would feel dizzy while staring.

"Is this a warning?"

Qi Lin looked at the letter and chuckled: "Or is it a threat?"

The mayor chuckled and said nothing. He just pushed the letter in front of Qi Lin.

Moreover, the imprint badge representing the apostle's will was completely displayed in front of Qi Lin intentionally or unintentionally.

Qi Lin smiled and shook his head and said, "Besides the suicide note that shows you are selfless and devoted to the people, is there anything else you want to say? Or do you need me to convey it to you?"

A simple sentence that did not contain murderous intent made the mayor feel like he was facing a powerful enemy.

There is something wrong with the cold!

But, what does he mean?

The seal and badge of the apostle is here, how dare he kill someone?

Why did he kill?

After thinking hard in his heart, the mayor didn't think it was because the factory had killed countless people in more than thirty years.

After all, at the time of the original dinner, he felt that this believer did not care about the life and death of the local people.

Then, there is only one reason

Cheng Xiao!

That mercenary!

If I had known earlier, I should have delayed the killing a few days!

The mayor was in a panic and regretted it for a moment, but there was no way he could do anything else.

He didn't understand, wasn't it just that a mercenary died?

Why?

He didn't care when so many people died, why would he treat a mercenary...

Could it be because of the beauty of the mercenary's daughter...

With such doubts, the mayor showed a forced smile and said something that tried to save the ending, but succeeded in making Qi Lin's patience gradually disappear: "I believe believers should be able to understand that when a person sees too much for nothing, Arrogant, extravagant and lustful people, those who work hard are bent over eating, and those who have done all the bad things wear gold and silver. Looking back, my parents are in their forties or fifties, and they still have to find things to do, so their mentality will more or less change. "

"The pyramid is a kind of monument in alien civilization, a very tall building, which represents"

"I know what a pyramid is. Just tell me what I need to convey to you!" Qi Lin retracted his gaze from the badge on the letter, frowned and looked at the mayor to interrupt.

The mayor was stunned, and quickly went straight to the topic and said what he meant: "When you stand at the top of the pyramid, think back to the first half of your life, and find that the rights, love, and interests you pursued when you were young are just floating clouds. The people at the top of the pyramid all have a common goal, immortality.”

"And I have the shortcut to immortality."

The mayor looked at the needle and said steadily as if he had a winning ticket: "How to extract and purify human blood and convert it into blood to make up for the consumption of vitality?"

"enough!"

Qi Lin's anger rose, and various images of blood being drawn that had been suppressing the bottom of his heart appeared in his mind unconsciously.

And everything related to needles that aroused his anger, such as the death of Zhen Haoren.

The mayor seemed a little overwhelmed by the sudden scolding.

Why is this believer, who has always been taciturn, so angry?

Is there anyone in this world who is not interested in immortality?

After the mayor was temporarily absent-minded, he quickly added an explanation as if trying to remedy the situation: "Believers, you may not understand that countless people in the world long for transcendence, but transcendence is stolen from the gods, and there are constraints. But as long as we have this needle, You can raise an extraordinary army at any time and live forever.”

The mayor stopped talking.

Because Qi Lin stared at him with eyes that were red with bloodlust.

"Since you invited me to join the game, why don't you show up now?"

Qi Lin stared at the mayor when he said this.

However, the mayor could feel that Qi Lin's words were not meant for him.

Who is he talking to?
