Volume 1: The Gate of Flesh and Blood Chapter 81: Devonte has a perfect plan!
Looking at the shameless little Gratz, Andinan was stunned. The madness he had shown disappeared in an instant.
Fortunately, Goethe was quick-witted and knocked the other person out with just one move.
"Sorry, I made a mistake."
Andinan scratched his head embarrassedly.
"You've done good enough."
"It's just that this guy's desire to survive... I didn't expect it."
Goethe glanced down at Little Gratz.
In some ways, the other party is also a talent.
"Is this guy lying?"
Andinan was a little worried.
"Probably not."
Goethe had been listening attentively to the other person's heartbeat. The other person was completely frightened by Andinand's performance. His heart was pounding and he was completely at a loss.
Of course, Goethe was not 100% sure that the other party was not lying.
So Goethe picked him up and walked out.
At the same time, he did not forget to remind Andinan.
"Collect some weapons, they may be useful."
"clear!"
An Dinan nodded immediately.
The two of them were equipped with six revolvers and 200 kilograms of explosives, which was enough to deal with general situations, but what if any special circumstances arose?
Just in case, Andinan immediately pulled down the rifles of Little Gratz's bodyguards and put them on his back.
Therefore, when Ge Gen saw , he saw that Andinan was carrying five rifles on his back and holding two rifles in his hands.
"You want to be an arms dealer?"
Ge Gen, who was sitting in the driver's seat, couldn't help but speak.
“It’s better to be prepared!”
As the young man spoke, he handed the two rifles in his hand along with the ammunition bags.
The deputy sheriff took it straightforwardly.
Deep down, he also believed that more firepower was needed.
Then, he looked at the person Goethe was holding.
"He is the one who knows where Lanster is?"
"He has said that Lanster is at the Royal Institute of Ornithology, but I'm not sure if he lied."
Goethe said it truthfully.
"Leave him to me."
The deputy sheriff said in a deep voice.
"Are you sure?"
"You know his identity, don't you?"
Goethe reminded the other party.
"I'm not blind."
As the deputy sheriff said this, he picked up little Gratz and walked towards the alley.
"Lanster has a very good friend."
Andinan said softly.
“Same with Kudzu root.”
Goethe said so.
…
Royal Institute of Ornithology.
Devonte walked through the long corridor and entered the dean's office at the end - it was not originally his office, but after he came, it became his.
Dozens of coffee beans were finely ground.
With some black pepper and ginger.
The coffee after brewing has a strange aroma.
This is the brewing technique that Devonte learned from a traditional nobleman.
It will be a little hard to accept at first.
However, if you drink too much, you will find it really unpalatable.
But he had no choice.
In order to fight against the 'Dragon's might', he needed to keep his brain clear at all times - this was a secret recipe he learned from some traditional nobles.
In fact, it’s not just drinks.
The food in the past two weeks has been mainly spicy.
Of course , this is just the most basic additional means.
As for the core?
Devonte glanced at the 'ritual' painted on the wall.
That's one of the keys.
Then, the advisor from Greater Gratz looked at the other remaining key: Lanster.
Lanster was not in a good condition at this time.
Not eating or drinking for a long time made his body weak, especially being hung in the air in the same position, which made the sheriff fall into a coma.
Devonte raised his hand and poured the remaining half cup of into the sheriff's face.
In an instant, Lanster woke up.
The sheriff licked it with his tongue at the scent coming from his nose.
Even after being hungry for two days, the strange taste of this coffee still made the sheriff tremble all over.
"Tsk, your taste is as bad as you are!"
The sheriff said coldly.
"It's just a necessary measure."
"Just like leading you here."
"as well as……"
"Use you as bait to attract more people."
Faced with the prisoner's provocation, Devonte smiled indifferently.
"Marple is a clever fellow!"
The sheriff stressed.
Although Devonte didn't say much, Lanster knew very well that his partner was not worth the other party's fuss.
His partner could only be a part of the other party's plan, used to lure Marple here.
"Well, he's very smart and very powerful."
"If I hadn't accidentally discovered him lurking next to Andinan, his plan might have actually succeeded - using newspapers as bait to attract some half-knowledgeable guys to gather around him, and then use these guys to attract our presence, and finally, catch them all in one fell swoop."
"His plan is good and has a great chance of success!"
"pity……"
"He ran into Andinan!"
Devonte did not refute Lanst. The advisor of Greater Gratz sat in a chair, expressed his own guess, and then shook his head.
"He is too greedy!"
"He acknowledged the 'old system' but also peeked into the new 'tradition'."
"final?"
"Of course you get nothing!"
Devonte sighed and looked up at Lanster who was hanging there.
Although he was just killing time at this time, Lanster's rebuttal still made him dissatisfied, so the next moment, he spoke with malice.
"You are a bit like him in that you can't see yourself clearly."
"I've already let you go, but you're so ungrateful that you insist on getting in my sight again."
"Originally, I was planning to 'blood sacrifice' my precious ones, so they would be more delicious."
"Just like your wife."
"She tastes a bit like a donut."
Such a description made Lanster angry.
The sheriff yelled and struggled.
But, it's no use.
The ropes were so strong that even the sheriff in his prime would not have been able to break free, let alone now when he was hungry and exhausted.
"You see, you can never see yourself clearly."
"Such consumption is just in vain."
"Isn't that right, Marple?"
As he spoke, Devonte looked towards the door.
A figure was swaying outside the door, which was not closed to begin with.
The next moment, Goethe appeared in the corridor.
Looking at Goethe who appeared, Devonte smiled.
It wasn't the playful smile just now, but...
proud!
"You're a little slower than I thought."
"Were the clues I left for you not obvious enough?"
"That fool, Silik, should have thought himself wise enough to go find you. Little Graz dared not hold back at all in the face of your inquiry - well, it was Ge Gen, right? He was the one who delayed us."
"It's his so-called self-esteem that made him hesitate."
"I will dig out his heart and feed it to my 'baby' in a moment."
The Greater Graz consultant's smile grew even wider.
After all, everything was within his expectations!
Everything is under control!
Even if he is one of the heirs of the 'Robert family', so what?
You've walked into his trap!
"Marple, be careful!"
“There’s nothing in here that I can’t understand!”
"Don't come in here!"
The hanging sheriff warned loudly, but Devonte did not stop him.
What Lanster knew was what he wanted the other party to know.
Simply put, everything Lanster said would be beneficial to him and was what he wanted.
The advisor from Greater Graz glanced at Lanst with a smile, then looked at Goethe again.
“Why didn’t you shoot?”
"Or rather..."
"Why not give it a try?"
The other party opened his arms as if to welcome him.
But Goethe shook his head.
There was no need to shoot.
The other party has been preparing for two days... No, it should be that the other party has been preparing since the failed attack two weeks ago.
With ample preparation time, the other party naturally made thorough arrangements.
bullet?
Not only will it not be of any use at this time, it might even become a trap that the other party can use.
As for other means?
Like bullets, it will be useless.
Especially the [Despairing Gaze]!
The other party arranged so much just to lure him here!
And he has already displayed the [Desperate Gaze], there is no way the other party would not be on guard!
At this time, if Goethe uses [Desperate Gaze], he is very sure that [Desperate Gaze] will not have any effect!
There may even be backlash!
But this does not mean that Goethe will sit idly by.
Because Goethe probably knew what the other party's plan was.
Gunpowder weapons should be the key to triggering the entire "ritual", and it cannot be triggered by oneself or one's own people, but only by the opponent.
Then……
Gunpowder weapons and [Desperate Gaze] will become ineffective!
Goethe clearly remembered that Mrs. Burns said: Once the "forbidden" supernatural power appears in certain areas, the forbidden power in the entire area will lose its effect, and there will be no result of one side losing and the other side gaining.
Thinking of this, Goethe did not hesitate any longer. He raised his hand, took out a cigarette and lit it directly.
The fire was so conspicuous at night.
The other party is prepared.
He also has plans.
And, just right.
boom!
With a loud bang, a hole was blown in the wall of the director's office of the Royal Ornithological Institute.
The 'ritual' painted on the wall was in pieces.
Devonte seemed to have suffered a shock and staggered into the corridor.
An Dinan and Ge Gen rushed in.
"Lanster!"
Kudzu rushed towards his partner.
Andinan raised his gun and aimed at Devonte.
However, the door to the dean's office closed in an instant, and the young man could only hear Devonte's increasingly proud voice.
"Perfect!"
"I was worried that you wouldn't do this, but I didn't expect you to cooperate so well!"
"Do you really think the layout of the dean's office is the core?"
“Wrong!”
“The corridor is the real heart of it!”
"Guess what it is?"
Devonte, whose plan had been completely successful, could no longer hold back and asked triumphantly.
"Suppress my abilities."
"Suppressed gunpowder weapons."
Goethe said very calmly.
"That's right."
"Gunpowder weapons are the key to starting the 'ritual'. Not only will they suppress your 'dragon power', but they will also render gunpowder weapons ineffective!"
"This kind of 'ritual' is what my school has been researching since the rise of the 'Robert Family' and gunpowder. However, the arrangement is too complicated and the materials required are even more precious. Even if it is arranged, it can only affect a small area in a short period of time and cannot be applied to a large battlefield at all!"
"Also, the biggest disadvantage is that it will incapacitate all extraordinary beings within its range, regardless of friend or foe!"
"However, it is very easy to use it to capture an heir of the Robert Family!"
The plan was a success, the other party generously admitted. The great Graz was eager to tell Goethe all his plans.
Otherwise, no one would know his greatness!
As for Lanster?
How can a mortal be worthy of knowing his greatness!
Only Marple, who is also a supernatural being, can do it!
Devonte continued as he moved his joints.
"Under the premise that we can't use our own abilities or gunpowder weapons, we can only fight with our bare hands!"
"Oh, I forgot to tell you!"
"When I was young, I was the underground boxing champion of Hessettins!"
"I will break all the bones in your body with my punches, so that you will understand the pain I endured two weeks ago!"
The other party roared, ripped off his coat, revealing his muscular upper body, clenched his fists and charged towards Goethe.
A charge filled with the breath of death!
