Chapter 3231 The Shadow of Faraines (Twenty-eight)

When he saw this name, Schiller narrowed his eyes slightly. It couldn't be such a coincidence that there was a second person named John Constantine in the world?

"What do you want to do?" Schiller asked in his heart.

"In your memory, I am a character in some literary work."

"Yes," Schiller admitted. He said, "At least the first time I heard your name was in a novel."

“But I don’t appear much.”

"Yes, not much."

"You have no opinion on that?"

"If I'm being honest, you've made a few appearances, but you've become famous because you're completely different from your fellows. You're very special."

"Don't you think this special should give me more playing time?"

Schiller rubbed his brow and said, "So you want someone to write a novel about you? With you as the protagonist?"

"You are the protagonists." Naya said, "Your people have too many stereotypes against me."

"That shows that my people have sharp eyes."

“I was hoping someone could clarify this for me.”

"Constantine? Don't you think that putting him and the word 'clarification' together is like a huge joke?"

“This is not his story,” Nayya said. “It’s your story. He just recorded it all. He’s a pretty good writer.”

"You two really have the same taste for each other." Schiller sneered and said, "You've wanted to do this for a long time, right? How much benefit did you give Constantine to get this cunning guy to work for you?"

"It's just his interest. I didn't force him."

"Whatever you want to do." Schiller put the book away and put it in his arms, not intending to read it. He said, "I have already got the things. Our last transaction is over."

"And the screws?"

"You didn't put any conditions on this." Schiller was not fooled at all. He said, "It's a face-to-face transaction. The payment is in full. Since you didn't put any conditions on this, I will regard it as a gift from you."

"I'm happy to, but don't you want to hear about the new deal? In your human terms, new arrivals in the mall."

"You can't learn anything good from greed." Schiller said rudely, "If you slap discount tags on the faces of everyone who contacts you like he does, you will be kicked out of all their works by my people."

"No, this is a special offer for you."

"It seems you have learned the essence of greed."

"Really don't you want to take a look?" Naya's tone was full of temptation. He said, "The church people have arrived. They brought modern weapons and some other means. Without my help, you can't leave this village alive."

"Please clarify your position. The Transcendent said that there are no demons in this game." Schiller said clearly, "I can listen to your conditions first, and then think about what I am willing to pay for them."

"You are very good at describing fair trade as if you are at a disadvantage. Is this something you learned from greed?" asked Naya.

"If you don't tell me, I'll die." Schiller walked out of the cave.

"I think you should read the novel first." Naya finally said, "I assure you, there is no spiritual pollution in it. It just records your story. I hope you can see how it is written."

"In literary appreciation you should look for arrogance."

"He watched it, and he said he didn't expect Constantine to be so good, and he said he was finally doing something serious."

"Then I'll assume he writes well. What are you going to do?"

"Publish." Nayya used a very modern word. He said, "Find a publishing house to print it and distribute this novel to the world."

"This game world?"

"Yes, this actually helps your goal, doesn't it? He can expose the church's conspiracy and let people know the truth about the strange events over the years."

"That's why it can't be published. Do you think the church will just sit there and watch?"

"So you have to deal with the church first."

"The church has many modern weapons and special means."

"Then publish your novel, and I will give you power."

"But the church won't allow the novel to be published."

"Then deal with the church first."

"I'm dead."

After saying that, Schiller no longer paid attention to Naya, unilaterally blocked his voice, and walked back to the dark river.

Now he had three choices, either go back to the lighthouse to pick up Batman, wait for Batman in the lab, or go back to the cabin where they were at the beginning.

The third option may sound unnecessary, but it is actually also for the purpose of waiting for Batman.

Schiller didn't know which route the people from the church took. It could be by water or by helicopter, but no matter which route they took, they would definitely go to the dock first, and they would probably send people to explore the lighthouse during the journey.

Batman should be able to escape from the lighthouse unscathed, but he would not choose to go out and confront the church people head-on, but would definitely retreat into the cave.

He had a pass to the laboratory, so he could go to the laboratory by himself and take away what he needed, but he would not stay there for long. After all, that was old Sirtek's territory. If the other party locked the laboratory remotely, he would be caught in a jar.

Therefore, the best course of action is to retreat into the cave, go to the laboratory to get the things and leave quickly.

But they still needed a base. Although the previous cabin had been burned down, there was a cellar underground. They only needed to block the road between the cellar and the cave to create a safe base.

The cabin is outside the village, in a very remote location. The church would not search there. Even if they did, they would only see ruins. There would be no need for a thorough inspection.

Schiller expected that Batman would choose this route, so there was no need for him to stop him halfway and he could just go straight to the finish line.

Thinking of this, he set off as fast as he could. After all, the cabin was quite far away and it would take some time to walk there.

"I think we can talk about this issue again." Naya still didn't give up.

"You can help me deal with the church first," Schiller said. "Without the church's obstruction, the novel can be published naturally."

"You said it was a fair trade, both money and goods are paid."

"But if you don't advance me, I can't do what you ask."

"I think you should know why I don't give you an advance."

"Then we have nothing to talk about."

Nayya was silent for several minutes, until Schiller was almost at the cabin, when he said, "I don't know if this novel is worth the risk."

"You still want me to read it?" Schiller understood what he meant, and then said, "I know you didn't put any traps in it, but reading Constantine's works is a gamble in itself."

"I need you to judge from a human perspective whether this is a good novel and whether your kind would be interested in it."

"So it's you who can't understand?"

"My perspective is different from yours. Those things are too subtle for me. It is always difficult for me to notice them, and I have no experience of them."

"You learned this trick from Bruce, didn't you?" Schiller said mercilessly, "Why do you think I would sympathize with an Outer God?"

Before Naya could say anything, Schiller suddenly said, "You're not going to use this trick to make Arrogance compromise? Yes, he even dared to read Bruce's thesis, so reading Constantine's novel is a piece of cake for him."

“I don’t want to get an evaluation like that.”

"What review?"

"Better than Bruce's paper."

"Ha." Schiller sneered again and said, "I really don't know what unrealistic expectations you have for Constantine."

"But Pride says..."

"He can even read Bruce's paper, what unrealistic expectations do you have for him?"

Naya was silent again.

"You are so different from the Schiller I know." Naya said.

"It's my pleasure."

"Then let's make a new deal." Naya finally compromised and said, "You read this novel and give a fair review, and I'll give you something."

"what?"

"Something to use against the Church."

"Magic? Or something else?"

"I don't know magic, but I can give you knowledge."

"I dare not accept your knowledge."

"It won't harm your spirit."

"So it will cause harm to other people's spirit?"

Naya was silent again.

"You went to Pride and said bad things about me, right? Brand, this is not in your office. Aren't you afraid that he will tell Batman about these things? He has always been interested in you."

"Nothing compares to his interest in you." Naya said slowly, "He's obviously trying to do two things at once."

Schiller felt that he had guessed correctly. Naya must have been saying bad things about him to Pride, and he even brought Batman with him. The two of them were whispering to each other.

"Why don't you change your name to the God of Gossip?" Schiller chose to attack the person personally. He said, "The knowledge you impart to your followers is how to badmouth others behind their backs? Fortunately, my fellow tribesmen didn't give you too many roles, otherwise their novels would have been classified as marriage and emotional counseling channels."

"I'm just asking Pride how to communicate with you."

"How did he say?"

"He told me to give up. He said you are stubborn and greedy."

"Then you think too highly of me. I'm just an ordinary agent."

"Hmm..." Naya uttered an unknown syllable, and suddenly he asked: "You were on vacation?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"So you are working overtime now?"

"That's right, there is no overtime pay."

"Is this why you are so angry?"

"I don't know when you became proficient in psychoanalysis, or are you just a mouthpiece for arrogance?"

Naya was silent again.

"What do you think I'll say? Ask you for overtime pay? I'm not greedy, why would I need so much money? For an agent, the most precious thing is vacation time, and no amount of money can make up for it."

"what do you want?"

"You sound like the lowest kind of devil."

"Since you're here, you should spend your vacation time on something meaningful. If you don't get to take the vacation and the game fails, wouldn't that be even more sad?"

"Can you help me win the game? How are you going to help?"

"Let's make a deal..."

“Fair trade is not help.”

"Then let's not talk about help. You give a review of this novel and I'll give you useful knowledge."

"Can you guarantee that it can be used?" Schiller further asked, "Can you guarantee full guidance without any omissions?"

"You can't ask that of an Outer God. We are not Batman. We have nothing to do with 'certainty' and 'precision'."

"So you're just going to trade a set of uncertain knowledge that could explode or endanger you at any time? Do you think I'm easy to fool?"

After a long silence, Naya said, "Arrogant is right. I shouldn't try to reason with you."

"then you……"

As Schiller said this, he felt a chill under his robe. He reached out his hand and touched that place, and felt it was wet.

Schiller grabbed the thing and threw it away in an instant, but it was too late. The cover of "Water God Ketayat" began to bleed and the pages were automatically turned open.

Schiller was unable to dodge and the blasphemous pattern came into his sight. He felt as if he had been hit hard and took a few steps back, leaning against the wall of the cellar, his vision becoming blurred.

Not only the cover, but also the pages began to bleed. The whole book was twitching and twisting like a person struggling on the ground. Blood quickly accumulated and formed a bloody lake at the bottom of the book.

The blood formed thin threads that spread in all directions, like a huge net, or like the blood vessels under the human skin.

A voice sounded in Schiller's ears.

"Rise up!

Nameless existence:

Your time has come,

We were chosen by you.

Through your spells and magic,

Through your dreams and enchantments,

We know you are coming.

I came to serve you.

For the Lord we love,

The Knight of Cthulhu,

Sleeping in the green water,

Othuum..."

"The battle begins."
