Strange Voyage: Summoning the Fourth Disaster.

Chapter 620 Sink the Hunchback

Upon hearing Wang Dao's reply, the hunchbacked man's smile widened, and he quickly followed Wang Dao.

“Greetings, sir. My name is Sink, or you may call me the Hunchback. I have been here for a long time and know a little about many things.”

"I can offer you some information about the Ark, which will only require a small amount of fuel..."

Seemingly sensing Wang Dao's impatience, Xin Ke spoke quickly and didn't waste any words, directly stating his purpose.

This approach did indeed pique Wangdao's interest.

He came here for two reasons: to satisfy his own enjoyment and to gather intelligence on the Fallen Twilight. Therefore, understanding the Fallen Ark was naturally a very important matter.

Sink, standing before me, seems to be a good candidate.

Thinking of this, Wang Dao casually took out a firefly flame from his inventory and threw it at him.

Sink's eyes lit up, and he quickly caught it, carefully holding it in his hand, a smile involuntarily spreading across his face.

"Is that enough?" Wang Dao glanced at him.

"Um...this..." Although he seemed pleasantly surprised by Wangdao's intervention, Xinke's eyes still revealed more desire and greed.

Seeing this, Wang Dao didn't waste any words and gave him another one.

Seeing this, Sinke was overjoyed and subconsciously looked at Wangdao, wanting more, but only saw a pair of indifferent and cold eyes.

This made him quickly swallow what he wanted to say and suppress his greed.

"That's enough, thank you for your generosity."

"Don't worry, I will answer any questions I know the answers to."

Sink smiled ingratiatingly, his posture humble.

"What's going on here? Why don't I see anyone else?"

Wang Dao asked questions as he walked.

"This is not a gathering place, but a reception point, a place specifically for newlyweds to be welcomed by the Twilight Ark."

"If you want to find other people, you need to go to the meeting place and the cellar ahead."

Sink followed closely in Wangdao's footsteps.

"However, I suggest you avoid the assembly area for now; there are some very irritable and unreasonable guys there..."

Sink paused for a moment, then glanced cautiously at Wangdao.

"...My lord, on the Twilight Ark, as long as no major chaos occurs, deception and killing are permitted, you..."

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Wang Dao suddenly stopped in his tracks, a genuine smile spreading across his face: "Then I really should go and take a look..."

"Lead the way, let's go to the assembly area first."

Wang Dao raised his head, gesturing for him to go first.

Upon hearing this, Sink hesitated instinctively for a moment.

But when he thought of the powerful aura emanating from Wang Dao and his generous spending just now, he quickly came back to his senses.

"……OK."

Sink quickly walked to the front of the Forgotten Path.

His steps were small, seemingly because he had some hidden ailment that forced him to walk faster.

The hunched back seemed to conceal a heavy bundle beneath the clothes.

Wang Dao glanced at it and then looked away: "What was that cellar you were talking about?"

“It’s a resting place on the Twilight Ark,” Sink explained. “The cellar contains many large jars filled with an unknown liquid. Soaking your body in it can heal injuries, raise your body temperature, and even grant you mysterious powers, but…”

Sink hesitated, glancing around. Seeing this, Wangdao tossed him another low-grade flaming item.

Sink perked up: "Sir, this is forbidden on the Ark..."

Forgot to throw it away again.

“The liquid in that jar will cause people pain, make them extreme and insane, and make them increasingly devout in their will to be corrupted.” This time, Sink didn’t push his luck and spoke without hesitation: “The more effective the jar, the more it will do this.”

"A small number of people died directly inside the jars, becoming part of the temperature increase for those who came later."

A pile of canned goods, no wonder it's called a cellar...

Wang Dao seemed to be deep in thought, and added this location to his itinerary.

He nodded and continued to ask, "Is there anything else important?"

"There is also the Twilight Altar and the Watchtower, as well as the Fire Temple."

After Sinke finished speaking, he began to explain the three places to Wangdao.

The Twilight Altar is the place that the broken jar pointed out to Wangdao at the beginning. It is used to give the people on the Twilight Ark a quest, from which they can obtain the reward of the Fallen Will.

The lookout post, to put it bluntly, is the guard post of the Twilight Fallen faction. As long as there is no major trouble on the Ark, the "lookouts" inside will not bother with it.

The Fire Temple is the most mysterious place, located beneath the altar of the entire Ark. It cannot be entered without guidance, and no one knows what is inside.

Sink heard that only those who are most devout in their devotion to the fire can enter.

After hearing all this, Wang Dao narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and then turned his gaze to Xin Ke.

His gaze sent chills down Sink’s spine.

Fortunately, Wang Dao didn't scare him for long and soon asked, "And you? Are you also devout to the Will of Fallen Fire? A faithful believer?"

Wang Dao looked at him with a smile, clearly teasing him the most.

After all, if the other party were truly a devout believer, they wouldn't have told him about the cellar in the first place.

But Sink felt a chill run down his spine and gave an awkward laugh: "Of course I'm not some devout believer, just a guy who came here to barely make a living..."

Wang Dao rested his chin on his hand, then pointed to his back: "What's wrong with your body?"

"Oh...it's nothing...it's just how my body is...I'm used to it...hehe..."

Sinke scratched his head and smiled ingratiatingly, while carefully observing Wangdao's expression.

He did not let his guard down because of Wang Dao's generosity, but at the same time, he was also very clear in his heart that if the other party insisted on finding out... there was nothing he could do.

But Wang Dao didn't seem to want to force him to say anything. Seeing that he didn't want to talk, he nodded and stopped asking. Instead, he asked about other things.

He disdains using force to coerce someone into revealing secrets they don't want to share.

This made Sinke secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and he quickened his pace to lead the way for Wangdao.

As the two continued forward.

The muddy path underfoot had become thicker, clearly indicating that it had been trampled by many people.

Wang Dao soon saw a burly, strange man carrying a woman's corpse as he passed by.

The woman's jaw was ripped apart, and most of the flesh on her neck was torn off. Her lifeless eyes were filled with pain.

clack clack...

The strange man was chewing something with his strong teeth, making a crunching sound.

Then, the strange gaze locked onto Wangdao and Xinke in front of them.
