Using the needle-pierced iron chain as the entry point for their relationship was something that even Yi Chen himself had not expected.
Unexpectedly, the former Grand Master of the Knights of the Plague went completely crazy in that battle and was imprisoned in the monastery's Old World Prison.
In fact, after hearing the almost vivid description given by Miss Vivian's tombstone tongue, Yi Chen himself also developed a strong interest in the former leader.
The two of them then started chatting about the former leader for the entire night, with Vivian acting like a little fangirl all the time.
Vivian had followed the original captain to participate in that battle when she had just joined the group. The captain's heroic figure who controlled death and killed people in all directions always lingered in her mind.
Moreover, at that time, as long as the leader of the Knights Templar said a word, everyone would unite as a whole. As long as they returned to the original tomb, they would enter a relaxed state. There would no longer be any identity barriers, no more personal conflicts, and everyone could dance and sing wildly in the square.
After the former leader was confirmed to be insane, Vivian tried to find him.
But when she said all the words of longing and tried to get closer, her torso was directly erased, and Bernard, who was traveling with her, risked his life to save her.
…
As they chatted, it was already the next morning. Vivian had long been accustomed to her current state of being completely drunk, but she was still conscious.
Yi Chen used brain tricks to keep himself awake.
"William~hiccup! After you leave the original tomb, where are you going to go next..."
Yi Chen pointed directly at the clothing and said, "The leather factory~ This is the medium through which we humans first came into contact with the old world. I must go there."
"The leather factory? This is not a good place... Although I was grounded, I heard that something seemed to be wrong with the leather factory. It might be dangerous if you go there directly."
“Yes, the Duke also pointed this out, but he didn’t tell me what happened in the leather factory. He hoped that I could go and see it in person.
It was precisely because of the potential dangers in the leather factory that I came to the original tomb in advance, wanting to upgrade my weapons."
"Upgrade your weapon? Do you want the 'Dead Man's Wedgestone'?"
“That’s right… If I can get the wedge-shaped stone and integrate this crest into my own, I can greatly improve my strength and even prepare for the subsequent “path”.
If I can improve faster, I can get in touch with the monastery in advance and even gain the authority there. Maybe I can take you, Miss Vivian, with me to check on the status of the former leader."
"You are crazy, you want to overthrow the source of the epidemic area... and you are the Monastery of Pain that is specially authorized to manage the old world. Although I am drunk, I won't believe it to such an extent."
"What if I, as the person in charge of the source epidemic area, launch a war of equal level against the monastery?"
These words made Vivian stunned, "The person in charge of the source epidemic area? Do you want to..."
Yi Chen just smiled and didn't answer.
Although Vivian didn't believe it, she still wanted to fight for it even if it was a tiny possibility... She always believed that the former leader would be able to come out of his mental dilemma, return to the original tomb and lead the Knights.
"...Okay~ Since you've been chatting with me all night, I'll trust you a little bit. But getting the wedge stone is going to be very troublesome."
"It can only be dropped by killing the 'Death Elephant of the Abyss', right?"
Yi Chen suddenly interrupted Vivian and continued, "I have been looking up information about the wedge-shaped stone for a while now. It seems that only the Death Plague Knights are qualified to defeat the Death Statue.
How about this, we fight the dead statue together. If I can't even do this, then you should just treat what I just said as bullshit and never have any contact with me again.
If I can make enough contribution in the process of defeating the dead statue, how about giving me a wedge-shaped stone as an investment? If I really break into the monastery in the future, I will try to bring the former leader out. "
After hearing this, Vivian had no reason to refuse.
"Death Statue of the Abyss. Even I could be in danger. Are you sure you want to face this product of deep death with an open-source attitude?"
"Sure."
"Even if you really want to go, I'm now punished to work on the elevators. I've been out of touch with the Knights for a long time. Most of the people have a bad relationship, so it's hard to form a suitable team in a short time."
"It's okay, I'll go find someone! As long as you agree, Miss Vivian."
"You should go find that guy Bernard... Tell him that I'm willing to go just because of you, and it has nothing to do with him."
"Okay~ When do we leave?"
"Let's go now and find Bernard. Otherwise, my work will have to start again and you will have to wait another month. According to your future plans, you can't waste time."
"good."
After a while, Bernard, with a look of surprise on his face, was taken to the bar.
He thought William was joking, but he didn't expect Vivian to actually be waiting here, and she was even moving her tombstone-shaped tongue, which was Vivian's unique pre-war preparation action.
Before Bernard could speak, Weiwei spoke first:
"It's just that I made a deal with this guy. It has nothing to do with you... Don't hold me back when we fight later. However, the two of us alone are not enough, after all, this guy is still at the open source stage.
We need to find another person, preferably one who can provide precise positioning.
After all, in a place like that, the most important thing is whether we can find the dead statue first. If we are attacked by a high-level death infiltration, even we will be in danger."
"Wait a moment, I'll bring the person here in an hour."
Bernard was instantly motivated. Being able to reconcile with Vivian was the most meaningful thing for him at this stage.
Not even half an hour had passed before Bernard returned on his wolf, followed by another rider on a long, skinny mule. The gait of the skinny, almost old mule was so extreme that it had nothing to do with the brave and warlike dead horse.
However, the person riding on the mule was known not only to Vivian but also to Yi Chen himself.
"Hmm? You are... Mr. Ostomes?"
The mysterious man on the mule lifted his hood, revealing a wrinkled face with ears hanging all over it.
Looking at the human youth who had come to him to buy intelligence some time ago and Vivian beside him, he quickly figured out the whole thing.
A wicked smile hung on his face. "It turns out to be such an interesting team! I am very willing to participate in this crusade. I will let my ears search for dead statues for you."
While Mr. Tinggu was talking, his eyes were all on Yi Chen's ears. He even recalled the past. After a tremor in his body, he lay on the mule, unable to move.
Bernard also saw some problems here. "William, you seem to know the auditory ossicles?"
"Ah? I bought some information from him before... Haha, let's go."
Bernard didn't doubt anything, "Well, you don't have a dead horse, just follow me the whole way."
"Where is the image of death?"
"It's at the lowest level that the elevator can reach, the level where the boss is... but in another direction."
I have a cold and feel dizzy, my eyes hurt, and it's hard to write... I'll take some ibuprofen tonight and adjust my state to write well tomorrow.
