Purgatory Artist-Chapter 197: The Prisoner’s Secret

Coldhammer Town.

In a room on the second floor of the bar.

Liu Ping locked the door, reached out and pulled out a card.

Forest Banshee.

Bam!

The card disappeared.

The banshee with branches and flowers on her head appeared again.

"Are you ready? I can let you return to that moment at any time, but once you return, time can no longer be stopped. "She asked.

"No, I'm not ready yet. Actually, I called you here to ask you something." Liu Ping said.

"What is it?" Forest Banshee asked.

"I remember you saying that the Sequence of the 'Land of Exile' once created a prison cell to imprison those entities." Liu Ping said.

"That's right." Forest Banshee nodded.

"The prisoners are so powerful, but they're no match for the Sequence ... They've always been wary of the Sequence?" Liu Ping asked.

"Yes, they used a long time to open a corner of the prison cell using some unknown method and reappear in the world." Forest Banshee sighed.

"Is there a way to find out how they did it?" Liu Ping asked.

"Unless someone goes to the prison cell to take a look. Only then can I make a guess." Forest Banshee said.

"I've been there." Liu Ping said.

Forest Banshee was shocked and immediately asked, "Is that true?"

Liu Ping nodded and said, "Yes, the Supervisory Council has a detection device that can discover the prison cell. I entered the prison cell at that time."

Forest Banshee reached out and pulled out a card from the flowers on top of her head and said, "If you agree, I'd like to take a look at the situation."

"I agree." Liu Ping said.

Forest Banshee handed the card to Liu Ping.

Liu Ping looked down and saw a clear spring drawn on the card.

As he stared at the clear spring, the water gradually left the card and wrapped around him, turning into countless lights that circled him. The scenery around him also gradually changed.

The next moment.

Liu Ping found himself back in the ancient prison cell.

Densely packed humanoid bugs crawled all over the walls.

A monster with three heads was nailed to a black metal pillar, motionless.

And the black pillar went through the entire prison cell, connected to an unknown place.

Everything was still.

Suddenly, a female voice sounded in his ears.

"As expected, it's a prison cell ... I didn't expect this place to be completely under its control."

Liu Ping suddenly turned his head and saw the Forest Banshee standing at the side. Her eyes were fixed on the corpse on the metal pillar.

"Can you see anything?" Liu Ping asked.

The forest Banshee stretched out her hand and touched the shell of a human-shaped insect. She said, "Normally, it wouldn't be able to break free from this prison, but ... I didn't expect it to think of this method."

"What method?" Liu Ping asked.

"Its power is focused on control. Because of this, it allowed its own corpse to rot," the forest Banshee said.

Liu Ping thought for a while and looked at the bugs that were crawling all over the prison cell. He said softly, "That's amazing ..."

"You already understand?" The forest Banshee asked.

"Yes, it was nailed to the pillar and couldn't move at all. So it must have let its corpse rot and then controlled the corpse worms that were born from the corpse." Liu Ping said.

"That is indeed the case!" The forest Banshee exclaimed in admiration.

She walked forward step by step and came to the bottom of the pillar.

"There's a hole here. You escaped from here back then, right?" The forest demoness asked.

"Yes." Liu Ping said.

The forest Banshee stretched out her hand and touched the hole. She said sadly, "It's too cunning."

"What happened?" Liu Ping asked.

"This place was attacked by 8,657 techniques ... Finally, it found a way to deal with the seal ..."

Liu Ping thought for a while and pointed at the huge corpse. "It found a way to completely escape?"

"No, once it completely escaped from this pillar, it would definitely trigger the Sequence's strategy. So it couldn't leave this place." the forest Banshee said.

"Then what's the evil god?"

"I'm afraid it's an insect."

"The soul of the prisoner took over the bug's body?" Liu Ping asked.

The forest Banshee said, "Yes, it definitely couldn't escape. But it controlled the insect and escaped from the prison cell as a corpse insect."

Liu Ping continued, "And then it began to plot to obtain the Sequence. Once it obtained the Sequence, the prison cell would completely collapse and its real body would be saved."

"That's right." the forest Banshee said.

She softly chanted an incantation.

The scenery around him flashed by like a storm.

Liu Ping's vision blurred and found himself back in the room above the bar.

The forest Banshee stood in front of him with a tired look on her face.

"I only have this much power left. Unless you find more Sequence Cards, my power will only recover a bit." she said.

"Thank you for your hard work. Thank you for helping me find out this secret." Liu Ping said.

"I'll have to rely on you for the rest."

The forest Banshee looked at him and reminded him:

"If you must say it has a weakness, remember, it's now a corpse insect."

Saying so, the forest Banshee turned back into a Card and fell into Liu Ping's hand.

Liu Ping put the Card away and fell into thought.

Lines of burning text quickly appeared in front of his eyes:

[Together with the forest Banshee, you've discovered two things:]

[First: The secret method of the prisoner's escape]

[Second: The creature type of the Evil God's main body]

[You've obtained Role Points again]

[Current Role Points: 2/10]

[Note: When you obtain 10 Role Points, your Acting Type ability: Fishmonger will evolve]

[Please continue to work hard]

Liu Ping glanced over it and began to walk around the room.

After I revealed the existence of the Devil King of Ten Thousand Eyes and the prisoner, I thought the evil creatures would stop fighting.

I didn't expect the evil creatures to flee the entire country ...

The only helper I can count on now is the Supervisory Council.

From the way the cunning Lord handled things, the Supervisory Council's work is related to the prisoners.

Then ...

This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.

I have to think of a way to keep the Supervisory Council in the Empire.

I don't need them to defeat the prisoner.

As long as they can keep disrupting the prisoner and attracting its attention, that's good enough.

What I need the most now is time.

With that in mind, Liu Ping quickly walked to the table and sat down, then took out an envelope.

He opened the letter.

He held the pen and quickly wrote on the blank paper:

|According to the recent events in the Empire's Imperial City, such as the fire at Floating Light Road, the invasion of the Royal Academy, we can confirm that His Majesty the Emperor has been parasitized by some unknown existence. The evidence is conclusive.|

|The human empire will become its lair.|

|With the strength of this existence, it can completely kill all the challengers directly, but it chose to slowly infiltrate through religion.|

|This is very confusing.|

Liu Ping stopped writing.

In fact, he had a guess in his heart, but it was not good to write it directly on the paper.

The Evil God, or the prisoner, did this because of the existence of something.

The War Machine Sequence.

Just like in the Kingdom of Ceylon, the "Land of Exile" sequence used some kind of space-time freezing power at the last moment to seal everything.

So ...

Perhaps the "War Machine" had a similar ability?

This was the reason why the prisoner changed its strategy.

But if he wrote these things, it would be easy for the Supervisory Council to guess some of the truth.

I can't let them feel fear now.

I need help!

Liu Ping put the letter into the envelope and sealed it with a magic seal. He gently knocked on the table with his knuckles.

The door opened.

The bartender walked in and asked, "Are you done writing?"

"Yes, please be sure to deliver this letter to the guest at the ninth table." Liu Ping said.

"Please don't worry, we are professionals. When do you plan to let the other party receive this letter?" The bartender asked.

"Thirty minutes later." Liu Ping said.

"No problem." the bartender said.

Liu Ping thought for a moment and asked "If the matter is exposed and they turn to find you, asking you to reveal who the writer is, what will you do?"

The bartender displayed two cards in front of Liu Ping.

"Memory Erase Card, Long-Distance Movement Card ..."

Liu Ping murmured.

"Yes, before handing over the letter, I will use the Memory Erase Card to only remember the mission and not you. After handing over the letter, I will immediately teleport to the organization's safe house and enter a state of silence for three months." the bartender said.

"Perfect service." Liu Ping said.

"You have given us double the reward, we have to make it worth it." the bartender said.

The two quickly completed the transaction.

The bartender bowed slightly to him, turned around, and left with the letter.

Liu Ping sat on the chair and fell into deep thought.

The prisoner changed its strategy ...

It began to develop religion in an attempt to make humans work for it.

Looking at the history of the Kingdom of Ceylon, the resistance of the "Land of Exile" sequence towards the prisoner was extremely intense.

Perhaps ...

The prisoner wanted to use a peaceful method to make humans work for it, to seize the cards of the war sequence, so as to avoid the resistance of the war sequence?

When it obtained all the cards of the "War Sequence", could it use them to attack the "Land of Exile"?

To liberate its true body in this way?

Liu Ping sighed.

Surviving in the Evernight was really a difficult thing.

The Emperor announced that he had explored all the places within one billion square kilometers, but was mocked by the Devil Empress.

The Evernight was an endless world of death.

Humans were only an extremely small race in the Evernight world.

Here, every step of exploration into the unknown was very likely to attract the attention of some unknown existence and bring death to humans.

Perhaps.

Even a deity would not be able to do that.

Thinking of this, Liu Ping could not help but sigh.

The only powerful weapon that humans could rely on to manifest the power of Mystery.

Cards.

And sequences.

Five minutes later.

He opened the door and walked out. He greeted Libertas in front of the bar counter and the two left the bar together.

Darkness had fallen Between heaven and earth.

The snow was getting heavier.
