Doomsday Code

Chapter 569 Contact

However, as Samlett spoke, Sheli's consciousness became more cautious, and at the same time, a sense of solemnity and murderousness permeated the entire consciousness space.

"Are you really Lord Samlet?"

Shekai asked.

As long as Samlet shows any inconsistent characteristics, a war will immediately break out in this space of consciousness.

Samlet was very satisfied with Sheli's caution. As a guard, it was a basic quality to be wary of everyone except his lord.

Samlet said with a smile on his face:

"Of course I'm Samlet. Who else do you think could break through the demigod-level armor I built for you and invade your world of consciousness?"

After Sheli heard this, the murderous atmosphere in his consciousness space slightly subsided, and then he bowed slightly to Samlet and said:

"Please forgive me, sir. But weren't you training the army with His Majesty in the City of Sin? Why did you appear in the real world?"

Sheli's seemingly questioning was actually a verification of the truth about Samlet in front of him.

Sheli believed that even if Samlett sold him out, he would never betray any information about Chen Cheng, so he mentioned Chen Cheng in the question.

An ordinary person might have gotten away with it, but as Samlet himself, he naturally knew that this was a test from Sheli.

"Your vigilance is good. I am Samlet, and I am also training the army with His Majesty in the City of Sin."

After receiving confirmation, Sheli finally put away his butcher knife and half-knelt in front of Samlett and said:

"I see you, your lord."

Samlett's face was no longer joking. He looked at Sheli and said:

"Get up quickly, and remember that from now on you will only kneel to His Majesty. Only His Majesty can command you."

After Sheli stood up, Samlett told him everything that happened to him after he arrived in the City of Sin, and asked him to tell it to Chen Cheng.

Then he continued:

"I am now recovering in Moonlight Forest, and the plan for the City of Sin has failed.

You can tell His Majesty that the Empire and the Elves had an agreement in the past. If His Majesty needs the Elves' support, he can go to Moonlight Forest to fulfill this agreement."

After saying this, Samlett's face showed fatigue.

He had been struggling in the City of Sin for so long and was about to succeed, but the appearance of Smoker and the invasion of those evil gods from outside the domain caused him to fail.

At this moment, his heart was filled with guilt towards Chen Cheng, especially after learning about Chen Cheng's current condition from Sheli.

This made him feel like a complete failure.

"You can go back now. I'll be waiting for His Majesty in Moonlight Forest."

After saying this, Samlett's consciousness disappeared into Sheli's consciousness space.

After Samlet left, Sheli sensed it and found that he didn't feel that anyone had left a backup plan in his consciousness space. Only then did he truly confirm that it was Samlet.

It was only a moment before consciousness returned.

At this time, Sheli was still following Chen Cheng, following him to visit various shops selling equipment on Adventurer Street.

At this time, Chen Cheng picked up a magic sword in a sword shop that sold magic swords. Then he turned and looked at Sheli behind him, wanting him to give him some advice.

When he turned around, he saw Sheli, who had regained consciousness but was still a little dazed.

"Sheli, what's wrong with you? Why do you seem a little down?"

Sheli had been with him for so long and had no reservations towards him, so Chen Cheng could tell at a glance whether he was in good spirits or not.

Sheli shook his head and said:

"Sir, I'm fine."

Sheli didn't want to tell the story of Samlett at this time. He was very clear about Chen Cheng's current situation. It would be better to wait until they found a safe and secluded place before talking about Samlett.

Seeing that Sheli said he was fine and seemed to be just a little distracted, Chen Cheng followed his gaze and saw a place for entertainment and consumption in this era.

This is the Guild Street, and naturally all the shops here are opened for the purpose of providing services to the guild adventurers.

Many adventurers are out in the wild on missions and fighting for their lives, so their spirits are naturally tense. When they return to the guild in the city, it is natural for them to relax.

Such entertainment clubs naturally emerged.

Chen Cheng looked at Sheli with a lewd smile on his face, and then walked up to him and whispered:

"Are you missing Marta? I know you grew up in the city of sin, and you've experienced a lot of things you should and shouldn't have learned.

If you need to, you can go and relax. If you don't have money, I can support you. Don't worry, I will never tell Marta when I get back."

Sheli felt puzzled by Chen Cheng's words. He was not a fool and could hear the vulgar meaning in Chen Cheng's words, but he had never said that he wanted to go to that kind of place.

"Sir, I don't want to go. If I wanted to, I would tell you."

After hearing Sheli's serious answer, Chen Cheng stopped joking with him and picked up the big sword in his hand and said:

"Come and take a look at this magic sword for me. What do you think?"

Sheli grew up in the City of Sin, so fighting was inevitable for him, so Chen Cheng asked Sheli to advise him on the selection of weapons.

Sheli just took a look and then said:

"Sir, this sword is not suitable for you."

Then Sheli told Chen Cheng all his understanding of the sword. From what he said, this sword, which looked very good, was completely useless to Chen Cheng in battle.

Sheli's voice was not small, and the sword shop owner heard it clearly.

The boss was naturally very angry when he heard Sheli belittle his sword in such a way.

"My friend, you are a customer. We are all doing business. If you don't want to buy, then don't buy. But isn't it a bit too much to slander our swords like this?"

Chen Cheng also knew that criticizing someone's product shortcomings in person was asking for trouble, so he quickly apologized to the boss and was about to put down his sword and leave.

However, the boss would not let him go like this. He stopped Chen Cheng and said:

"I think this young master is also a reasonable person. My sword has been criticized by his subordinates as worthless. Very good. As long as your subordinates can verify it, I will give you the most valuable sword in our store."

As he said that, the boss asked his clerk to go to the backyard and get out the sword shop's most valuable treasure.

Although he seemed magnanimous, he actually wanted Chen Cheng and the others to change their minds and then buy the sword.

Otherwise, if this gets out, his shop’s business will be in trouble.

As for whether what Sheli said was true, even if it was true, so what? Could Chen Cheng and the others really rely on the mistakes they found to turn his sword into scrap metal?

Chen Cheng looked at the boss in front of him acting on his own, and he was not a fool.

If the boss had just been negotiating in a nice tone, it would have been fine for him to spend money on it, but now he insisted on having some attractive gambling fight, and Chen Cheng would not tolerate him.
