Chapter 529 530. Absurdity
A groggy mind is a good target for being affected by the [Yaxi Seal].
Although even so, Lan En still had to knock out the unlucky divine guard three times through his helmet, and each time he used the [Yaxi Seal] to knock him out. The mouth was pried open.
The warrior's will is strong enough, but the demon hunter's [Yaxsi Sign] is not very powerful.
So if it weren't for the chaos magic power reserve in Lan En's body that increased as his body became stronger, he might not be able to afford this consumption.
Finally, Lan En kicked the religious guard who had been ravaged for a long time back into the bungalow.
“Brisson?”
After dealing with the cult guards, the demon hunter held his chin and muttered to himself.
This is the information he just got from the other party.
He didn't know who this man was and what his status and power was in the city of Athens. [Yaxsi Dharma] also doesn’t support making it clear.
Lan En then returned to Phidias's workshop with a piece of papyrus with an order written on it that he had found from the cult guard.
Early the next morning, Phidias, who had not slept soundly for nearly half a month, got up.
While stretching his muscles, he felt more refreshed than ever before.
Lan En’s [Yaxi Sigil] last night really gave him a good sleep.
If he hadn't seen the olive oil residue on the door, he would have thought he just had a nightmare last night.
When Phidias came downstairs, he saw Lan sitting at the dinner table, and the little girl with the witcher had disappeared.
“She has her own things to do and her own practice sessions.”
Lan watched Phidias go downstairs, seeming to see the doubts in his heart, and spoke explained.
"How did you sleep last night? I used a little trick on you, I hope you don't mind."
With an apology on his face, Phidias sat across from Lan En Come down.
"No, it's nothing. Instead, I should thank you for letting me have a good sleep, otherwise I always feel like I won't last a few days and will die in the room."
"Also, last night I was very rude to you, I'm sorry."
"As an apology, I will pay you the same amount as Alcibiades paid for this task!"
< br>Lan En nodded indifferently and accepted the other party's apology.
Then he was still holding the barley bread in one hand, and with the other hand he took out a piece of papyrus from the alchemy leather bag on his waist and threw it to Phidias across the dining table.
"Let's take a look."
When he threw it over, Lan En still had a bad smile on his lips.
“This is what those people are planning to do to you.”
The master carver picked up the papyrus hesitantly, then just looked at it for a short while and then quickly threw it away. It was as if the paper had burned his hands and eyes.
"O Zeus!" Phidias moaned with trembling lips, "Those demons! Beasts!"
"It would be better for me to fall among hungry wolves than to fall into their hands!"
The piece of paper only contained orders, but no signatures. So Lane gives Phidias the name of the man who wants to kill him.
"Brisson is the one who issued this order. Do you know this person?"
"Brisson?" Phidias asked in surprise. He obviously knew this person. name.
“He is the son of Mystia, and his mother and father are also outstanding artists in Athens! Why would he do such a thing?”
"Who knows this? I just want to investigate and find out. I don't know the other party's motives." After learning that the other party was the son of an artist, Lan En felt that things should be much easier to handle.
Understanding who was targeting him, Phidias’ anger, which had been mentally tortured to the point of collapse, finally had a target to pour out. The famous sculptor in Athens immediately used his connections.
After a while, Alcibiades rushed over first.
"Pericles was entangled, and he asked me to handle it. You know, Phidias. The war is going bad, and Cleon's reputation is rising with it. Now want to suppress him But it took a lot of effort from Faberli to make it look completely different from before.”
Alcibiades seemed very familiar as soon as he entered the workshop. He sat directly opposite Lan En, with that cynical smile still on his face.
"Okay, let's get down to business. You said Brisson is a member of that religious cult?"
"Sir Zeus, I just heard about such a secret organization. At that time, I thought it was a new script written by Aristophanes!"
"Reality can often make the most absurd scripts appear logical." Lann raised his hands to Alcibiades. Pottery cup.
The wine inside is sprinkled with cinnamon powder and mixed with pomegranate juice. This is Phidias's private drinking method.
In Athens during this period, drinking pure unadulterated wine was considered barbaric.
"Why don't you just tell me, who is Brisson?"
"You have asked the right person, I know him quite well. He is a very handsome young man. Of course, it's far from you, my dear." Alcibiades described Brisson easily, and it sounded like they knew each other quite well.
“But among the crowd of people, you can still distinguish his beauty at first glance.”
“And just like all beautiful men, or rich men , or a man who is both. Everyone thinks that Brisson is easy to get along with, but no one thinks that he is majestic and not easy to mess with. To be honest, Pericles and I were really upset when you revealed this name. Shocked.”
"Oh, when you see what he is going to do to me, I really hope you can still say that he is 'easy to get along with.'"
Phidias, standing aside, sneered. There was hatred in that voice, after all, he was almost driven crazy by the other party.
Ignoring Phidias, who was obviously emotionally charged, Lane continued to negotiate with Alcibiades.
"Didn't Pericles realize that there was such a secret force in the city of Athens and that it had evil intentions?"
Amber cat eyes looked at the other party in confusion.
The other party kept playing with the gold olive collar around his neck.
"He noticed it, but it was of no use. The other party was a secret organization, which meant that the tree had deep roots. Compared with the city of Athens itself, even Pericles was just a 'young man' . This is a city that was established in the Mycenaean era."
"Even before you came here, we only knew the name 'The Cult of Kosmos'. This is what we are in Fidi. The reason why Yas didn't think about the Cult of Kosmos when he complained was that we knew too little about them. "That's better than me." I only knew about 'theism' before. ”
Lan shrugged.
"So, how is Pericles going to deal with Brisson? This is a good breakthrough, isn't it?"
"Are you going to send someone to arrest him? Or are you going to offer a reward to hire someone? Soldiers? "
"Actually" At this point, Alcibiades smiled sheepishly. "Pericles hopes that this matter can end 'quickly and simply' without involving anything."
Lan raised his eyebrows after hearing this. In other words, Pericles wanted Brison to A quick death?
"This is illogical. Is this a valuable source of information?"
"No matter how precious the information is." Alcibiades said with a rather sarcastic smile. "It's nothing compared to the stability of the political situation. Cleon is chasing Pericles on the podium, and any disturbance may give him an advantage."
"After all, 'reality often It can make even the most absurd script seem logical, right? ”
