Deep in the Living

Chapter 286 Ambition
【Preaching Room】

The hook pierced through the shoulder blades, lifting the two men high into the air, where they were having the most familiar conversation in mid-air.

This time, there were even other hooks lowered in front of the two of them, hooking two cups of hot tea for them to drink while talking.

"Tea"

This is something Hawke learned from the human world, a technique that he believes is meaningful and can maximize the value of food ingredients.

Using some tortured bodies as culture medium to grow tea, it can have a good taste after being brewed with boiling water, and can even increase the conversion rate of pain.

“Delicious!”

After taking a sip, Rody felt his body felt much more comfortable, and his tolerance for pain even became higher.

“The tea manufacturing process is still being improved. Once it matures, I may introduce this process to the monastery. I have to say that you humans are quite smart.

Now I spend about 2 to 4 hours a day there.

Maybe I can explore corners with you in the future."

"Is this...really possible?"

Roddy found it hard to imagine what would happen if someone like Mr. Hawke went to a corner.

"Let's give it a try when the time comes. Anyway, I can spend more and more time in the human world, and my research on the pituitary gland is also slowly making progress.

Anyway, it's still early, you should deal with the things in Hell first. The path that Overlord pointed out to you is very meaningful."

"By the way, what exactly is the arrangement? What is the route I need to take?"

Hawke sipped his tea and raised his index finger in front of him, "This is kept secret for now~ If I tell you in advance, it will have a negative impact.

The best way to move forward is to explore Hell on your own."

"Okay." Roddy didn't force an answer. The so-called road should be explored by oneself, just like exploring the corners later.

"After you have some tea and a short rest, I will personally take you to the monastery. After all, you are one of my specially recruited disciples and have not experienced the normal pilgrimage. It may be troublesome if you go directly there."

But Rody took out a special iron pillar from his pocket.

"Mr. Hawke, I had some things happen on my way here from Chaos Hive. If Mr. Hawke is busy, I can go to the Grand Monastery by myself."

"Well, you have the nun leading the way, so you don't need my escort. Tell me the story of your journey."

This time, Hawke no longer dared to directly pry into Rody's memory and became an honest listener of the story.

When key words like [Inn], [Sister Iron Pillar], [Wanted Criminal], etc. were mentioned, Hawke's expression changed obviously, and he began to look at his most proud disciple again.

"You were able to kill a guy who was about to ascend to a demon. Although it sounds like the rat's demon upgrade is relatively low-end, it is still higher than you in rank.

It seems that your strength has improved greatly during the time you were not in the Fifth Hospital. In other words, the corner has greatly increased your abilities.

In this case, the route given by Overlord is more suitable. If you know Sister Tiezhu, you can go there by yourself without my guidance.

I've been in the Prologue for so long, and I've never seen a monster like you."

Mr. Hawke became interested and snapped his fingers to lower the hook, bringing the two people hanging in the air back to the ground.

"Come on, kill me with the same sword you used to kill that rat.

I want to see what you have been through and what changes have taken place in you during this period. Through this, I can also write a suitable letter of recommendation so that the monastery can give you the most effective penance. "

The voice just fell.

There was no verbal confirmation.

A ray of moonlight actually shone on Hawke's face. At this moment, he saw the moon and the tentacle structures that drilled in and out of the craters.

Then came the sound of a chainsaw.

Ding!
A violent metallic sound echoed in the torture chamber.

Hawke took a step back. His right palm, which was used for blocking, was completely cut open, exposing the metal structure under the skin, which was even emitting white smoke.

“No wonder you can kill mice. It seems that the pituitary gland in your brain has integrated some kind of abilities into you.

Moreover, you yourself seem to have a higher understanding of killing.

Do you see the door, Rody?

Rody put the mask back into his body and nodded in response:

"I entered a very special state when I was walking across the Bridge of Sin. I don't know if it was because I saw the Rat's Gate of Ascension... I vaguely saw the outline of some kind of door."

"Did you see the outline? You're too fast.

Do you know how long it takes for the average demon to sense the presence of a door after feeding their "hell stuff"?
This cannot be achieved simply by feeding, it requires the individual to grow in the true sense, and the spirit, body and soul must all undergo qualitative changes."

"One year?"

"One to three years, and that's for those very talented demons. Many demons will never be able to see their own door in their entire lives, and will always remain at the stage of obtaining hellish items.

It seems that multiple systems complement each other in you and the effect is excellent.

I really don’t know what form your [door] will take…”

Luo Di also had a lot of doubts, so he took the opportunity to ask: "Do I need to build the door myself?" "You also need to find the answer yourself. I can only tell you that each demon's door is different.

Don't be influenced by the mouse's [Door]. Corpses can be piled up to form a door, and ordinary materials can also be used to make doors. Some doors even exist in the world.

Doors may be important, or they may be a medium for going from one area to the next.

But what really matters is the individual that can perform the act of ‘walking.’”

"Got it, thank you Mr. Hawke."

Hawke quickly wrote a letter and stamped it with the metal seal of the torture chamber.

"Since you know Sister Iron Pillar, just go to her directly. They will arrange a suitable monk identity for you, participate in some daily activities, and let you become a real Hell monk as soon as possible.

It just so happens that I have made some breakthroughs in my research on the pituitary gland, and I have been busy with this matter recently, so I won’t send you there.”

"Goodbye Mr. Hawke, see you next time."

"Don't worry~ Next time I come, I hope to see your door."

"it is good."

After drinking the tea, Rody turned around and left, heading quickly towards the monastery.

Hawke stood high in the torture chamber, watching the crow colt leaving quickly, gently rubbing and rubbing the iron hooks between his fingers.

“The Overlord actually put aside his status and personally guided the soldiers who had not yet ascended to the level of demons, and even took the initiative to ask for our assistance.

Most importantly, Rody is not a local demon.

Why would he bother with this? This is not something a Spine would do.

According to common sense, a talented outsider like Luo Di would definitely be sent to the most dangerous battlefield to quickly mature. "

hum!
The iron hook expanded in his brain, and Hawke seemed to have figured something out. "The Overlord couldn't possibly want to... This must be the case. Only this explanation makes sense, and this is in line with the style of the Spineman.

No wonder he can still sit in that position without being shaken.

This is good! It is a good thing for Rody, the spine, us, and the entire real hell.

If Rody can really find this path that no one has ever walked before, he will be able to gain a firm foothold in the upper echelons of the Spine.

His world will not become the target of the Spine invaders... I will have more time and more opportunities to explore that mysterious [corner]. "

Ever since Hawke came into contact with Roddy and was reverse-projected into the human world, his focus has changed.

His thoughts were no longer confined to the prison and the prologue.

He wanted to reach further.

……

The raven colt carried Rody back along the same route.

period,

Roddy was still recalling his exchange with Mr. Hawke.

“No matter how much stronger I am than other demons of the same level, I can still be easily defeated by Mr. Hawke, not to mention the Overlord.

Phew~ That’s the feeling.

The higher the ceiling of the real hell, the further I can develop, the more I can gain a foothold in the corner and kill those deep and mysterious monsters. "

Rody, who was on horseback, picked up the butcher knife that had just chopped Mr. Hawke.

The sudden burst of slashing force seemed to have exceeded the weapon's "endurance value", causing an irreparable crack on the surface of the blade.

Even if it was turned back into a pig's head, serious cracks would remain on the surface of the skull.

"Is this relatively basic corner-shaped item no longer able to withstand my full-strength attack? It seems I really need to find a way to obtain more Hell Contributions to exchange for a weapon that belongs here.

Since Agatha was able to obtain a wanted order, there may be relevant resources in the monastery."

Just as Rody was looking forward to the next journey and turning his gaze back to the present.

Maybe I didn't get enough rest in the hotel last night.
Perhaps it was because he used his full strength twice in a row,

Perhaps it was the physical burden of the painful pilgrimage.

Although Rody's mind continued to be excited due to the stimulation of various information, his hardened body had already reached its limit and was forced to shut down!
hum!
Eyes out of focus,

Rody's body suddenly leaned forward.

The crow seemed to sense this at the first moment, and immediately grew a large number of feather structures on its back, forming a crow's nest structure, catching Rody's body and providing a comfortable sleeping environment.

Running speed is also relatively reduced, and the horse's hooves have a relatively soft structure to reduce vibration.

As for Feiji,

It was supposed to help, but it had already fainted in the torture room...
