Chapter 378 – The prophecy of the Wall God

What is Shan Gu Street!

Lord Darl shouted in his heart. He didn't know which street Karun lived on, but when the name "Shan Gu Street" was inexplicably confirmed, he immediately understood that no matter if his answer was "Undead Street," "Bright Street," or "Reincarnation Street," it would be judged as the correct answer.

The problem is not the "problem" itself. It's this "woman" who wants to suffocate herself and make Karun the scapegoat!

Karun had once sighed in his heart, never doubting the wisdom of the gods.

So when he first faced Lord Darl, he didn't treat him as someone who could be easily fooled. And indeed, in such a short time, Lord Darl had already analyzed the situation and the situation in front of him.

But it's meaningless.

Wall God... oh no, now she can only be called Rui Liersa. Her time is running out.

Originally, she would choose to self-destruct outside, annihilating herself along with a complete divine nature, waiting for the next return.

But she saw Lord Darl who had come, thinking that she saw the "God of Order." Anger made her interrupt the self-destruction and choose to rush into the door to catch him.

Also because of the delay in this chase, divine power constantly overflowed from her body, and her divine nature had already shattered. Although there are no larger fragments of divine nature from the followers of the Wall God in the world, and it is even difficult to say whether there is a second follower of the Wall God who can condense divine fragments, she can no longer be called the "Wall God."

It was hatred that made her make this choice. At the same time, she is much weaker now than before.

When she woke up, she was extremely weak. After experiencing a bloody battle outside the door, the loss of divine power, a chase, and the shattering of her divine nature, she is now on the verge of falling asleep.

And when Rui Liersa was about to fall asleep again, a certain consciousness occupied a larger share, just like before she woke up.

That is... Linda.

Since the Wall God was personally suppressed and sealed by the God of Order, the Order God Church has judged the Wall God Church as a cult. Although the followers of the Wall God Church have been active and inherited, without a specific system and being openly suppressed, this church can no longer organize any large-scale activities.

And the true organizers of the super-standard God Descent Ceremony are Dis and Mr. Hofen, oh, and a little bit of Puerh's wisdom contribution.

Linda had the opportunity to fly into the air by borrowing the already arranged kite, abandoning her physical body, and existing as a soul, or even as consciousness. She became the closest follower to the Wall God in countless years!

"What is your relationship with him, Rui Liersa, Rui Liersa, there is something wrong with your follower, she has a problem!!!"

However, no matter how loudly Lord Darl shouted as a knowledgeable person, even if his voice turned into soul fluctuations and continued to extend towards Rui Liersa, he couldn't provoke any reaction from Rui Liersa.

Linda, with a solid body, had already closed her eyes.

Linda, with a lighter body, smiled and looked at Lord Darl.

Rui Liersa lifted Lord Darl up,

As if murmuring in a dream, the last whisper came out:

"Order, let's sleep together!"

The ground where Rui Liersa was began to collapse, and her body began to fall, but she still tightly held Lord Darl, causing Lord Darl to fall with her.

"Why, why is this!"

Lord Darl shouted at Linda in front of him,

"Why did you protect him, why did you cover for him, why did you let him go!"

Linda replied, "Because he borrowed money from my husband, but it seems he hasn't paid it back yet."

Lord Darl: "..."

The falling speed became faster and faster, and everything around turned into darkness.

When everything settled, there seemed to be only the faint echo of Lord Darl's last desperate roar in the air:

"No! No! No!"

...

Karun sat up from the bedding. He seemed to have been awakened by a desperate cry.

It should be because he was too tired in the cave recently, and now that he has relaxed, he is more easily startled.

Wentula also sat up from the bedding and asked, "Captain, do you want some water?"

"You go to sleep, I'll go outside for some fresh air."

Karun put on his divine robe, got up, and walked outside the tent.

Across the tent entrance, Muri was standing there, with a cigarette in his mouth, flickering.

Seeing Karun coming out, Muri walked over proactively and handed him a cigarette. Karun raised his hand to refuse.

Muri also threw the cigarette butt in his mouth on the ground, stepped on it, and said, "You're out too, can't sleep?"

"I'm fine."

In the last period of time, everyone was worried in Lord Darl's cave, but only Karun sat there, drinking his beverage and watching the live broadcast, so he didn't have as much mental pressure.

"The things have been handed over."

"Yeah."

"Don't you want to know what information is inside?"

Karun smiled and raised his hand, setting up a simple barrier around the two of them.

"There's no need to know. Even if we really obtain some big secret, we don't have the conditions to use it now. It's better to take some immediate benefits that we can digest."

"But I don't think those rewards are useful."

"They can keep us alive and unnoticed, without arousing suspicion or deep investigation. That's already worth it. After all, in the original plan, we were the two sacrifices."

"Yeah, you're right. You're more open-minded. I can't do that."

"You haven't joined my team yet, so there's no need to flatter me as your captain."

"Hehe, am I being too obvious?"

"Well, a little."

"Now, I'm looking forward to living in York City. Where are you staying?"

"At the Funeral Society."

"Is the room big enough?"

"Not really."

"Can I move in with you?"

"I think my previous answer already implied that."

"Well, then I'll find another place to live. Actually, what I'm more worried about now is how to face my grandfather when I go back."

"If you really let go, you won't care about such things."

"If it were you, could you let go?"

"It's hard for me to understand your family and your grandfather."

"Okay."

"You should go back and rest. Try to digest the soul power in your body as quickly as possible during this time, and don't leave any traces."

"Yes, I understand."

Muri returned to his own tent, while Karun sat outside for a while. When he felt sleepy again, he walked back to his tent.

There was a cup of water placed next to the bedding.

Karun took a few sips, lay down on the bedding, and didn't rush to sleep. Instead, he immersed himself in his own consciousness space.

Here, he saw a black shadow swimming rapidly. But when the shadow saw Karun, it fell and floated in front of him.

When you see it, you can sense the fierceness and brutality emanating from it without careful observation.

The shadow of a thousand charms began to sway its body. It seemed to not know how to flatter, but this instinct that every living being possessed could appear as long as it was stimulated enough, only the proficiency level varied.

"You said you're hungry?"

Karun laughed and replied, "If you keep talking, I'm afraid I'll get hungry too."

The shadow of a thousand charms immediately straightened its body in fear and dared not make any more demands to Karun.

After checking the condition of the shadow of a thousand charms, Karun left the consciousness space, opened his eyes, yawned, changed to a more comfortable side lying position, and quickly fell asleep.

...

When he woke up, it was already noon the next day. Karun didn't expect to sleep so long during his nap. After a simple wash, he felt refreshed.

"Captain, let's go to the city for lunch. The captain said we won't leave the Samsara Valley until tonight, so we have the rest of the day to do whatever we want." Eslie suggested eagerly.

"Is it safe in the city now?" Karun asked.

After all, the Samsara Sect had just experienced a big battle with heavy casualties.

"It should be fine. Mainly, we want to buy some local specialties before we leave." Eslie took out an order ticket from her pocket. "Because of the recent war, the prices of some goods in the city have gone up, while others have dropped. We don't need the former, but we need the latter. In addition, the value of the Samsara Tickets has depreciated compared to the Order Tickets."

People's emotions are indeed not the same. Due to different beliefs and positions, Eslie and the others couldn't sympathize with the losses of the Samsara Sect. After all, there had been a war between the two major sects not long ago.

Karun eventually agreed to Eslie's suggestion, and the team had a carriage at the camp. The seven of them, including Muri, got on the carriage and entered the town.

There was no sign of panic in the town, unlike what most people would expect from the impact of war. The town seemed even livelier than before, and people's desire to consume was stronger. After such a scare, everyone felt that it was unnecessary to hoard too many tickets and it was better to enjoy life earlier.

Eslie chose a restaurant and asked the owner for a private room on the third floor. After everyone sat down, the menu was brought to Karun first.

Karun casually flipped through it and then passed it to the person next to him, saying, "You guys order. From now on, it's a tradition that the captain treats everyone to a meal after each mission."

"Haha, Captain is wise!"

"Praise the captain!"

Everyone started ordering dishes in turn, without being polite. They ordered a lot, fearing that the table wouldn't be able to fit everything later.

Sitting by the window, Karun held a cup of tea and looked out at the street. Suddenly, his gaze was drawn to two figures.

Is it them?

How did they end up here?But their appearance here seemed normal.

"You guys go ahead and eat, don't wait for me. I have something to attend to, I'll go down first, it's personal."

"Alright, Captain."

"Captain, you go ahead and take care of your business."

Karun got up from the table. Although it was important to gather with his subordinates, it was impossible for him to see his father-in-law pass by without saying hello.

"Oh, the Captain went downstairs. I saw the Captain."

"The Captain went into the studio across the street!"

...

Before entering the studio, Karun hesitated for a moment. He knew what kind of place the studio in the Valley of Reincarnation was. So, if his father-in-law and his good friend went to solicit prostitutes together, did he still need to say hello?

What am I thinking?

Piage was such a faithful person when it came to love. How could he do such a thing? As for his father-in-law, Karun once suspected that his father-in-law had no desires in terms of human relationships.

Because Karun was wearing the robe of the Order God, a manager immediately came up to greet him as soon as he entered.

"Sir, what kind of service would you like? We have..."

"The two people who just went in, where are they?"

"The two people who just went in... Oh, sir, are you looking for those two painters?"

"Yes."

"They came to settle their payment. They should be coming down soon."

While speaking, Mr. Bede and Piage came down the stairs together. Mr. Bede was holding an envelope in his hand, and they both clearly saw Karun.

Mr. Bede said, "I heard that this time, the Order God's trial participants can enter the Gate of Reincarnation."

Piage turned his head and said, "But didn't your daughter's fiancé tell you?"

"Do you think we could be found during this time? I haven't contacted my family at all."

"So why bother? We were so frugal before!" Piage was helpless. "If I had known Karun was here, we could have borrowed some coupons from him."

At this moment, Karun walked over and bowed to Mr. Bede.

"Hello."

Mr. Bede immediately responded, "Karun, I knew you would be here."

Piage then took the initiative to hug Karun. "I want to drink, will you treat me?"

Karun could tell that Piage really wanted to drink.

"Alright, my subordinates are across the street. Let's go to the restaurant over there and book another private room."

After the new private room was set up, Karun watched Mr. Bede and Piage look at the menu together, constantly ordering dishes and ordering a lot of drinks, discussing how to pack them.

After putting down the menu, Piage smiled and said, "Don't mind us, we've been really tight on money lately."

"Didn't you bring enough coupons when you went out?" Karun asked.

Mr. Bede replied, "We brought some, but after buying materials and such, we quickly spent most of it."

"The income of the estate is much higher now than before, Mr. Bede."

"The income of the estate has nothing to do with me. Otherwise, why would you choose to leave the estate, Karun? It's normal to live according to how much coupons you earn."

"I still have some coupons here, do you need them?" Karun asked.

Mr. Bede immediately shook his head. "No need, we have enough for rent and boat tickets. It's just that the boat tickets have been delayed, and they are not currently accepting ordinary people. We can only continue to wait here. It shouldn't be long before we can leave."

Piage nodded. "Yes, it's normal to have a meal with a friend, but it's not appropriate to take money from a friend."

"You're making me feel embarrassed. I borrowed money from you quite a bit before."

"It's different. That was just a temporary loan, and you were working for me at the time. It was a boss-employee relationship, not just asking for money to improve our lives."

"So, when do you plan to go back?" Karun asked.

Piage looked at Mr. Bede, and it was clear that Mr. Bede had been responsible for all the travel arrangements.

Mr. Bede took a sip of his drink and said, "Next, we plan to go to Saint Antis. I heard it's a very nice place with beautiful scenery. We want to go there for sketching."

"I will probably go back to Saint Antis next."

"But when you return from Saint Antis to York City, we won't have arrived in Saint Antis yet."

Mr. Bede knew that Karun and the others had a teleportation array that could take them directly back, while he and Piage could only travel by regular means of transportation and then spend some coupons to hitch a ride on some cheap teleportation arrays provided by the church, depending on the situation.

Those teleportation arrays could only be used once a day, and even after using it once, they had to rest for several days because their bodies would be completely exhausted.

"So, you're not planning to go back temporarily?" Karun looked at Mr. Bede and reminded him, "Yunis will recover in a little over a month."

Mr. Bede smiled and casually asked, "Karun, do you still plan to marry her?"Without any hesitation, Karun responded directly, "Of course, she is my fiancée."

Mr. Bede immediately waved his hand, "No, no, no, I don't want the engagement to limit your choice of happiness."

"This is an engagement I agreed to, it's fulfilling an obligation, but it's not purely about fulfilling an obligation, I've always been clear about that."

Piajie teased, "He understands too, he's just reminding you in a roundabout way. Do you know, he even designed the wedding venue for you, but the main color scheme is a bit strange, it's red, I don't know if you can accept it."

"I've always thought that red represents celebration, which is very suitable for a wedding."

Mr. Bede shrugged, "I will be back before your wedding, but I know you probably don't plan to hold a wedding in the near future, there's no need to rush things."

"I will ask for Eunice's opinion, and I won't deliberately try to notify you, because I believe you will return at the right time."

The dishes were served by the waiter, and Mr. Bede and Piajie started eating immediately. Even the most elegant and noble people would let go of all their pretenses after being tormented by a difficult life for two months.

After they finished eating, Piajie stood up and said, "Karun, my friend, thank you for your hospitality!"

Mr. Bede patted Piajie, urging him, "Pack up, hurry up."

Karun stood up to help them pack, without any further small talk, the two left the private room.

Neither Karun, Mr. Bede, nor Piajie mentioned anything about the Wall God. It was a tacit understanding between them. Everyone felt there was no need to talk about these things at this time, especially since Karun was still wearing the robe of the God of Order.

However, as Karun was preparing to leave the private room to find his subordinates, he saw a roll of painting left on the spot where Mr. Bede had been sitting.

Karun picked it up, removed the rubber band, and spread out the painting. It wasn't large, just the size of a regular notebook paper. The content of the painting looked familiar at first glance, it was the scene of Linda leading the super-scale God Descending Ceremony and her soul flying towards the Wall God, which was painted on the wall of Piajie's home studio.

Huh? Something's not right.

Karun noticed that the object Linda was flying towards in the upper right corner of the painting was not the Wall God,

but Piajie!
