Gu Tianchen said, "Nine times out of ten, they're after the King's Treasury."
An Qingyu looked at Gu Tianchen and asked, "What about number 27?"
"Number 27 comes from an ancient pantheon that has fallen into decline, but his purpose is to find someone, which has no conflict of interest with us, so we don't need to worry about him for now."
"But I can take this opportunity to get closer to No. 27. Having more friends means having more options. Maybe I'll need his help in the future."
“I know where the girl he’s looking for, Chloe, is. Qi Ye, as the prophet, reveal a general area so he can make a deal with you,” Gu Tianchen said, patting Lin Qi Ye on the shoulder.
"Alright, you're in charge of muddying the waters, and I'll take care of shifting the blame. We'll have to trouble our two friends from Mount Olympus to take the fall for us." Lin Qiye's lips curled up slightly.
Jialan looked at Lin Qiye and Gu Tianchen speechlessly.
"Very well, one betrayed his brother, and the other betrayed his teacher. You two are truly the direct disciples of the Red Dust Sword Sect."
Lin Qiye smiled. "Alright, it's about time. Let's proceed according to plan."
People come and go, come and go.
Soon it was number 22's turn to trade with Gu Tianchen.
"Number 39, can I exchange information about the entrance to the King's Treasury for a way to become a god?" Number 22 asked.
"Of course, where is the King's Treasury?" Gu Tianchen asked.
Number 22 pulled out a map with a red circle marked on it, which was the location of the Mozambique Channel.
"The King's Treasury is on the back of a giant divine tortoise, but it moves very slowly and is still within this range."
"However, because Gilgamesh, the hero-king with a demigod body, hated the gods so much during his lifetime, the gods could not enter the King's Treasury."
"This divine tortoise is extremely well-defended. It is almost impossible for anyone below the divine realm to break through its defenses. Entering the King's Treasury is as difficult as ascending to heaven."
After everyone completed their transactions, they returned to the first floor and, under the guidance of Number 01, began to leave in an orderly manner every five minutes.
"Then let's start with number 02."
"Wait!"
Gu Tianchen raised his hand and slowly said, "I was the last one to come in. To be fair, I should be allowed to leave first."
Number 01 frowned. "For so many years, we've always left in order of ranking; there's no rule about leaving in reverse order."
Gu Tianchen snorted and said, "My rules are my rules. Even Jesus would have to walk backwards out the door today!"
After saying that, Gu Tianchen led An Qingyu out of the Notre Dame Cathedral.
Seeing that none of the agents objected, No. 01 decided to go ahead and walk backwards, since there wasn't much difference between walking backwards and walking forwards anyway.
"Should we wait for Qi Ye and the others?" An Qingyu asked.
“No need. His somersault cloud technique is already very proficient. He can catch up with us quickly at his speed. Let’s go first,” Gu Tianchen said.
"Where's the dragon?" Jiang Er asked.
“This time, we won’t ride the beauty. Let’s try a new position. Old fish, hold on tight to my waist,” Gu Tianchen said.
“No, is that right?” Jiang Er asked.
"There's no time to explain, get in the car quickly."
An Qingyu gripped Gu Tianchen's waist tightly, and several streaks of light and arcs of electricity flashed around the latter's body.
Swish!
Gu Tianchen's figure rushed out like lightning, disappearing without a trace in an instant.
"Wow, what new trick is this?" An Qingyu asked excitedly.
Gu Tianchen frowned. "Put away those two broken scalpels of yours. They can't break through my defenses now."
"This move is called Flowing Shadow Lightning. It's a new technique I've learned. It's the number one movement technique of the Witch Clan. If you master it, even the Somersault Cloud can't catch up with me."
An Qingyu put away the scalpel she wanted to use to dissect Gu Tianchen and obediently held it close.
……
Inside Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.
Inside a secret room lay three identical corpses.
These are the bodies of Rambad, the agent of Mahoraga at Temple No. 01 in India.
Number 01, who was wearing a cloak and hood, pulled off the cloak, revealing a delicate young girl's face.
"Trying to fish in troubled waters? This is getting more and more interesting."
Chapter 438 Slightly Dirty Clothes
"GO GO GO, let's go!"
Gu Tianchen, carrying An Qingyu on his back, transformed into a bolt of lightning, traversing through the mist and flying straight towards the address given by Number 22 across the vast ocean.
Two and a half hours later, the three arrived near the Mozambique Channel and began searching for the tortoise.
Gu Tianchen summoned his beloved, who flew low above the sea to avoid missing important clues due to the lightning speed of the streaks.
Standing on the dragon's back, Gu Tianchen searched everywhere for traces of the divine tortoise, but found nothing.
“There are only seawater and islands around here, and we can’t see any turtles at all. Could we have been tricked by that kid number 22?” Gu Tianchen asked with a frown.
A gray glint flashed in An Qingyu's eyes as he locked onto a huge bluish-gray island on the sea surface.
"Is it possible that the divine tortoise is right beneath our feet?"
An Qingyu smiled and pointed to the bluish-gray island below.
Gu Tianchen glanced at the bluish-gray island, which was comparable to a small mountain, and exclaimed, "My God, such a huge turtle? You can't see the end of it..."
An Qingyu adjusted her glasses, feeling that something was off about the sentence, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
“This area is so big, let’s go down and find the entrance first,” Jiang Er said.
"Don't rush, wait for Qiye and the others. This divine tortoise is guarding the royal treasury by order of King Gigi. Without Qiye, the few of us are no match for this divine tortoise," Gu Tianchen reminded.
Jiang Er looked at An Qingyu with a puzzled expression and asked, "Who is this King Gigi he's talking about?"
An Qingyu smiled and said, "The owner of the King's Treasury, Gilgamesh, the hero-king of the Sumerian pantheon."
"This Hero King was the fifth king of the Kingdom of Uruk. He thought the name was too long and difficult to pronounce, so he changed it to King Gigi."
Jiang Er smiled and nodded, "Oh, you know what, King Gigi is actually quite cute compared to the name Gilgamesh."
The somersault cloud streaked across the sky at an incredible speed and arrived in front of the three.
Lin Qiye looked at them and asked, "Have you found the legendary divine tortoise?"
An Qingyu pointed to the ground beneath her feet, "This is the island we're currently on."
"Now that we've found the divine turtle, what are we waiting for? Let's hurry and find the entrance to the King's Treasury!"
Without saying a word, Garan rolled up his sleeves and jumped off the somersault cloud, free-falling directly at the island-like divine tortoise.
"Sister Lan!"
"Wait a minute!"
Before anyone could keep an eye on him, Garan had already jumped onto the grayish-blue island, creating a deep crater.
Jialan jumped out of the deep pit with a calm expression and patted the dust off his blue Hanfu.
Lin Qiye quickly landed on a cloud beside Jialan and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
Jialan waved his hand and said casually, "My clothes are slightly dirty."
Swish!Swish!Swish!
Countless vines, like giant pythons, attacked the two from the surrounding gray-blue rock walls.
With a tap of his hand, Jialan unsheathed the black box behind him, and the Heavenly Sword was drawn. A golden beam of light swept across the army, shattering all the attacking vines.
The entire island began to shake violently, and countless bluish-gray soil spikes, jagged and interlocking, burst forth from the ground, attacking the two of them.
A dazzling magic circle rippled out from Lin Qiye's hand, and Zhan Bai appeared in his palm. He swung the sword one after another, leaving behind afterimages.
One by one, the soil spikes shattered, turning into countless fragments of rock that flew out in all directions.
Holding the Heavenly Sword, Garan transformed into a blue afterimage and ran across the gray-blue island, smashing through the splintered forest of earth spikes that burst forth from the ground.
"Tch, with this little bit of strength, this Divine Realm tortoise is nothing special," Garan said, carrying his gun.
Under Lin Qiye's perception of the mortal realm, something was rapidly approaching.
"Galan, don't let your guard down, something's coming, this is..."
One after another, millstone-sized tortoise shells began to fly in from all directions, attacking not only the young couple below, but also shooting towards Gu Tianchen and his group in the air!
Lin Qiye swung the White Blade in his hand, and the snow-white blade struck the tortoise shell without leaving a trace!
"Such strong defense!"
Garan unleashed a golden beam of light from the Heavenly Sword in his hand, but it only deflected the flight paths of a few tortoise shells and did not penetrate their defenses as he had done before.
After several turtle shells were knocked away, more turtle shells rushed over like falling meteors, forcing Jialan to retreat repeatedly.
Gu Tianchen held the God-Slaying Halberd and unleashed a golden slash, but it failed to cleave the oncoming tortoise shell, leaving only a faint white mark.
Even his strongest attack, the Heaven-Slaying Golden Blade, couldn't break through the tortoise shell's defense!
hum!
Lin Qiye waved his sword, Zhanbai, and a dazzling magic teleportation array opened up, carrying Jialan onto Hongyan's back.
Immediately afterwards, the Void Bear spread spatial ripples, hiding everyone in the void rifts in an attempt to avoid the attacks of these tortoise shells.
The tortoise shells flying everywhere instantly lost their target and bumped around aimlessly like headless flies.
The divine tortoise slowly raised its hill-like head, revealing bright, lantern-like eyes. With a flash of divine light, it instantly locked onto the spacetime rift where the people in the night were located.
As if receiving some kind of command, countless tortoise shells instantly crashed towards the void rift.
A dark light emanated from the divine turtle, instantly revealing the figures of the Nightfall Squad members in mid-air!
In the critical moment, An Qingyu quickly said, "Since this divine tortoise was left by Gilgamesh to guard the King's Treasury, it should be very familiar with King Gilgamesh's aura, right?"
Lin Qiye instantly understood, and a purple light rippled around him, emanating a violent and raging aura, like a furious king sitting high above a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!
