Chapter 526 Invitation Letter
He looked disbelief: "So doc?"
Niu Changshou nodded: "Laban Seulisbaili, who is a professor of anthropology at the University of Miskatonik, hasn't seen him again in a long time."
What he said about Wuji Icefield can be verified with Xia Ren's experience in ancient dreams. However, he did not expect that Professor Qin also came from Miskatonick University. If he could chat with Professor Qin carefully, he might have learned the truth about Arkham in advance.
Xia Ren looked at his eyes: "But you haven't told me what kind of drastic changes happened that led to Arkham being sealed in the dark forever. And since the founder of the Superman Association is also a member of Miskatonick University, it means... you are not actually a plague scholar, but a leader of the Superman Association?"
Niu Changshou said: "I am indeed a plague scholar, but it is not wrong to have a certain influence in the Superman Association. As for what happened to Arkham at the beginning, I can't tell you about this."
Xia Ren frowned and asked, "As far as I know, the Wizards' Alliance, the Superman Society, and the Foundation are different. The wizards' positions are more inclined toward the neutral and evil side. Can the same-school friendship decades ago really make them willing to help you?"
"You don't have to worry about this."
Niu Changshou said: "The great magician of the Wizards Alliance, Sinny Grant, is my student."
Xia Ren opened his eyes wide: "That arrogant blonde young man?"
Niu Changshou nodded with difficulty.
Xia Ren immediately looked at him with admiration.
Niu Changshou's connections are even deeper than he thought.
"Who are you talking about...proud!"
In the room, the figure of Sinny Grant suddenly appeared without warning.
He still speaks in the same way, always emphasizing his tone at the end of a sentence two or three words.
Lily stood up immediately, her eyes full of vigilance towards him.
Although Xia Ren was a little surprised, he still grabbed her hand, asked her to sit down again, and comforted her: "It's okay."
"Sinny?"
Niu Changshou was obviously quite surprised by his appearance.
He stood up excitedly.
"teacher."
The look of aloofness on Sinni's face was gone, and he seemed a little excited. He walked forward two steps, but remembered something, his expression gradually calmed down, he returned to his original appearance, and lowered his head: "Teacher, long time... no see!"
He turned to look at Xia Ren: "I'll talk to you about the conditions!"
"It's okay to fall in love, but no other talk."
Xia Ren knew what he wanted, but the problem was that he was not familiar with Ebonn, so there was no such information to provide him.
“…” Sinny.
It seemed that no one dared to talk to him like this for a long time, and Sinni's mouth raised: "I know, where are your women!"
Xia Ren hesitated for a while: "...you talk first."
Sinni took two steps, facing the window, showing them his back.
"We have signed a contract with the ghouls, so we can know their information. Recently, they are going to hold a dark festival, and they need a group of human women to serve as sacrifices, and together with the ghouls, and the old god they believe in, Niyogda, to give birth to blasphemous descendants. These human women must be excellent. Ghouls cannot move in human society, so they can only seek help from people with ulterior motives!"
Xia Ren suddenly heard the school that the ghoul cub Zhang Xiang and Zhang Xiang's adoptive parents used to satisfy his son's perverted appetite, and he couldn't help feeling a little disgusted.
“So you just provide human women?”
Sinni did not answer his question directly, and continued: "A recent apostle came into contact with ghouls and brought them several women, your two women, among them!"
Xia Ren clenched his fists immediately.
If it falls into the hands of the ghoul, there will definitely be no good ending, especially when the other party just said that women should use their children to give birth to blasphemous children...
“Where is the dark festival held!”
He wished he could go to the ghoul's nest immediately and rescue Qin Yun and Lu Yi.
"I don't know this, either!"
Sinni continued: "The Dark Festival is very secretive. In the independent space outside of the fantasy dream and reality, only a few wizards and apostles who are closely related to ghouls will receive their invitations and follow the instructions. I did not receive their invitations, so... I don't know!"
"Invitation... letter..."
Xia Ren murmured and repeated a few words, suddenly remembering a task that the system once issued.
【Hunting ghouls!】
He has not completed this task so far. He finally killed the ghoul Zhang Xiang, but the other party was still a cub and did not completely transform into a ghoul, so he did not count.
Among the rewards for the mission, there is the option of Dark Festival tickets. Tickets, and invitations are generally the same thing.
Fortunately, I didn't complete this task at the beginning, otherwise I would definitely choose one of the other two achievement points and the rewards of the ancient dream fragments without knowing the importance of the ticket.
"Ghoul, I need to know where the ghoul is."
"Do you remember the...drawing you got at auction?"
Sinni held his chest with his hands: "That painting was made by a ghoul, and it may be able to provide you with... help!"
He turned around: "Equivalent exchange, what about the information I need...?"
Xia Ren thought for a while and said, "In the dreamland, where the Demon Worm is sealed, there is a building, which is Ebonn's residence, and all of his is in that study. I can only tell you so much."
Actually, he doesn't know anything else.
"study!"
Sinni's eyes were shiny and she looked extremely excited.
Having a study means that there are various manuscripts and books inside, representing more knowledge.
Maybe there is a way to that door!
This has an unparalleled temptation for Sinny.
The next second, his figure disappeared from the room, just like when he came, without any signs.
Niu Changshou looked at the direction where he disappeared, feeling very melancholy.
"Where is that painting?"
Xia Ren couldn't wait for a moment. The dark festival would begin at some point. He had to rescue Qin Yun before she could be hurt!
"I have brought the painting out. We are not in Arkham now, but in nearby cities."
Niu Changshou finished speaking and turned around and went out.
After a while, he came back with the painting in his arms.
After several months, this painting spans thousands of miles from East to West, and now it has finally returned to his hands.
The system received a prompt when it came into contact with the drawing.
