Latest advanced chapter Chapter 17 Hunter Assessment
Chapter 12 Deviation from the Track
'Starry Scourge'... Looking at the petite blonde girl in front of him, Sulman couldn't help but remember the forbidden name-
——Ibis.
She was a ruthless woman who once slaughtered a large number of 'Fallens'. She started a bloody rose-like catastrophe with her profound research on arcane knowledge, and tore part of the seal of the black abyss with the help of the ritual closest to the level of the gods.
This was the pinnacle in the mage class, one of the plot characters closest to the god!
To be precise, the other party was also a holder to Codex of the Black Abyss, and one of the top ones.
The mission of the so-called holder of the Codex of the Black Abyss was to unblock the black abyss and help the lords of the black abyss to invade the world of eternal night. However, after the power of Lords of the Black Abyss were sealed and isolated, how did they, who had just had the ability to enter the transcendental realm the first time, break the seal of the black abyss?
In response to this, Lord of the Black Abyss had left behind a very simple method, and that was to use a different Codex of the Black Abyss.
Codices of the Black Abyss were the anchors of the lords of the abyss in the world of eternal night, they not only had the function of teaching the people knowledge. Moreover, different Codices were also very good tonics for other Codices. For example, if a Codex of the Black Abyss killed other holders and devoured their codices, it would grow rapidly and the anchor would become more and more stable.
Until a certain critical point, it would become an opportunity for the Black Abyss to invade.
This was also an act recognized by all Lords of the Black Abyss. After all, the internal of Black Abyss was not harmonious, and no lords wanted other lords to have most of the benefit of their hard work...
Therefore, the Lords of the Black Abyss made a contract to allow the holders of each other’s codex to compete with each other. They would need to use their strength to prove their abilities and only the strongest ones would have the ability to break the seal of the black abyss.
——As a reward, they would also receive the greatest gift from the gods.
This method was very good. After all, the Lords of the Black Abyss could not transfer too much power. To use an analogy, the Seal of the Black Abyss was like a small bandwidth, it could only allow a hard-disk-sized content to be passed through. The more power they transferred, the more content would be lost.
But if it was only one copy of Codex of the Black Abyss, they may just lose half of their power. Then once they swallowed the other Codex, they would be able to obtain the other half of their original power.
"It deserves to be the notorious story plot that the players complained about. But this world story is indeed the core of the entire Eternal Night."
"As expected of the Lords of the Black Abyss. Their methods are very good, and they are truly the mastermind behind the invasion."
Thinking of this, Sulman also suddenly realized one thing.
No wonder, he would have a Codex of the Black Abyss. According to the original historical trajectory, his Codex of the Black Abyss would probably sign a contract with Ibis.
So Ibis was supposed to be the partner of Sinflame?
It was just that because of Sulman's accidental transmigration, it changed the trajectory of the entire history like a butterfly effect…
Wait a minute, if Ibis gets the Codex of the Black Abyss then for the fate of the original owner in the original timeline would be...
Even the Codex of the Black Abyss also changed its holder later on, wasn’t that obvious? Obviously, the Sulman in the original timeline must have died very early on. Maybe he was killed by the White Wolf Group, or maybe he was killed by other people, he could even be killed by the Codex of the Black Abyss... and for unknown reasons, this Codex of the Black Abyss fell in the hands of Ibis and became her cornerstone. In terms of what really happened, no one knew.
After Sulman figured it out, he sighed secretly. Perhaps it was this unknown past that made Ibis become cold and bloodthirsty, and set off a frenzy of killing in the Frigid Land of the North.
In his previous life, the Ibis was one of the worst calamities among the holders of the Codex of the Black Abyss.
As for the moment... Sulman raised his head and looked at the petite girl who curled up her body in fear. When he looked at him, the other party immediately shook like a frightened little rabbit.
It was really difficult to connect the other party with the Starry Scourge in his memory.
"What's your name?" Sulman asked again, knowingly.
The petite blonde girl, after hearing the words, trembled again, and said in a faint voice like it was made by a mosquito, "I...Ibis."
Ibis only said her first name, but she didn't dare to reveal her surname. However, as a transmigrator, Sulman knew the plot of Eternal Night World very well. Regarding Ibis, this character who was heavily involved in the plot, of course, Sulman also had a deep understanding of her.
Ibis's background was not simple. Her mother believed in the Hand of Glory, an Orthodox Church of "War Monarch". She had power and status in the church. She was from the Fielding family who also believed in the War Monarch for many generations. It was said that three hundred years ago, they even attended the Hand of Glory’s headquarters, and participated in the council of saints presided over by the pope.
Even before the Stuart family fell, it was still not comparable to the Ibis's family.
Because of this, when Ibis became a contractor of Codex of the Black Abyss, which was called ‘'the Fallen' by many people, even her portrait was not on the wanted list, and she has been given enough 'development time'.
This matter was once complained by players, "Nowadays, when a villain is also required to have a powerful background..."
"Mhm, a nice name."
Sulman put down her little hand and said lightly, without any special thoughts. After all, it was the plot development of his previous life. With his arrival and change, it seemed that Ibis would not become 'the Fallen'.
After all, her cheat was stolen by him...
"Mhm?" Ibis was startled slightly. She didn't expect Sulman's reaction. Originally, she had planned for the worst in her heart.
Ibis was aware of her own appearance. Knowing that her appearance was a red flag, she didn't dare to clean herself, and she had to wear a cloak to conceal her true appearance when she was eating. However, Sulman's calmness surprised her. For the first time in her life, she was less confident about her own appearance.
Growl... A slight noise came from Ibis's stomach. Her face flushed, and she was no longer reserved.
She picked up the fried bread on the table and stuffed it into her mouth eagerly but gracefully. It was obviously fast, but her actions didn't make people feel annoyed. It was just that Ibis quickly noticed that the young man sitting opposite her didn’t do anything but quietly watched her eat——
"You...Why don't you eat?" Ibis was a little embarrassed.
Sulman shrugged and said indifferently.
"Waiting to see if you have any reactions and if the food is poisonous"
"......"
Ibis suddenly stopped moving, she finally realized the real reason why this guy let her get in the carriage.
