Chapter 444 - The Well of Filth, Exploring the Unknown
pαndα`noνɐ1~сoМ
The Palace of the Imperial City.After dealing with Vincent’s reward, the demons all closed their eyes.
The servants who were waiting around immediately walked up behind them and began to massage the shoulders and backs of the eight demons. They treated them like gods.
Only the leader of the demons was still looking at Vincent. He said in a deep voice, “You can take the corpse of the Fire Elf out now. There is a Well of Filth at the back of the palace. Go and throw the corpse into the well!”
“Your subordinate will leave now!” replied Vincent.
He then picked up Lopez’s corpse and walked out of the palace.
After leaving the palace, Vincent was glad that he did not fall under the control of any of the demons. This was something worth being happy about no matter how he looked at it.
“There are a total of eight demons left in Elf World. Their strength seems to be higher than a level 45 creature, but it is fortunate that their strength has not reached level 50. This means that the strengths of these demons are roughly between level 47 and level 49. I can handle them easily. I don’t even need to summon Justin!”
As Vincent walked to the back of the palace, he carefully analyzed what he had just seen. As for the strength of the demons, the moment Vincent stepped into the palace, he had made a rough guess of their individual strengths.
“The leader of the demons must be a level 49 creature. The demons sitting next to him should be around level 48. The demons sitting on the outermost side should be even weaker, around level 47.”
Vincent, who had killed several apostle-level demons, believed that if he were to fight one-on-one, he would be able to slowly exhaust the eight demons that were guarding the Elf World. If he summoned Justin, he would be able to directly exterminate those demons.
However, Vincent did not choose to do so because he did not have the confidence to kill them in one shot. Plus, once the demons in the hall became alert, they would immediately inform Gajero. Vincent, who could be considered to be fighting in an away game, would definitely not have a good ending!
At that moment, Vincent suddenly stopped because he had unknowingly arrived at the back of the palace. There seemed to be a dilapidated dry well that was emitting a stench in front of him!
“This is the so-called Well of Filth. I really do not know what has been thrown into it. Could it be the excrement and urine of those demons?”
Vincent held his breath and complained as he walked to the side of the Well of Filth. When he threw Lopez’s body into the well, he glanced at the bottom of the well subconsciously.
However, it was this casual glance that surprised Vincent.
This was because he saw a strange light in the bottomless well. The color of the light was very special. It seemed to have all kinds of colors, but it did not seem to have any colors at the same time. It was full of strangeness and uncertainties!
Vincent was a little excited at that moment. Back then in Hell’s Rose, he had also sensed the same light which allowed him to obtain a crystal spear, as well as an incomparably surging, endless fighting spirit that helped him become stronger!
Those gains were all extremely precious treasures to Vincent. Therefore, he was curious about the treasures contained in the Well of Filth.
Vincent could not help but be filled with anticipation.
Vincent sighed silently in his heart, “Even if there is a treasure in the well, judging from the disgusting smell in the well, it means that the treasure must be buried in filth. If I want to go down and explore it, it would be quite a challenge!”
He then turned around and walked toward the city district. He left the demon palace as fast as he could because he was still afraid of the item that could turn Dark Elves into walking corpses. He did not want to stay there any longer.
Furthermore, he could not directly explore the Well of Filth in broad daylight. This would expose his true identity easily, causing the entire plan to go out of control. Therefore, Vincent planned to find a place to stay. At night, he would use his authority to open a space tunnel and go to the bottom of the Well of Filth to take a closer look.
Vincent did not choose to stay in a hotel-like building in Imperial City because he would come into contact with the Dark Elves who were like walking corpses. That would make Vincent feel like he was under close surveillance of the leader who was controlling the Dark Elves. Therefore, he could only use the Art of Heaven’s Will to inspect the houses along the way. Finally, he found a house that seemed to have been unoccupied for a long time and walked in.
As Vincent had designed Jacob to be a Dark Elf who wanted to stay in the Imperial City for the rest of his life, he chose a slightly quiet courtyard and cleaned the room meticulously. He made it seem like he was going to stay for a long time and valued the room. This was to ensure that he did not blow his cover from the spies who might be monitoring him in the dark.
After cleaning the dust in the house and washing all the items, Vincent let out a long sigh of relief. He then laid on the bed, closed his eyes, and pretended to fall asleep.
This was all just an act. He closed his eyes and used the enhanced perception ability of the Art of Heaven’s Will to check if there were Dark Elves observing him in the dark.
Soon, Vincent noticed that on the walls of the surrounding houses, there were more than a dozen Dark Elves with numb expressions looking at Vincent’s room. Their eyes were numb, and they did not have any expression.
It was not until three hours later that the Dark Elves who were acting as surveillance cameras left one after another. It seemed that the individual behind the scenes finally had some confidence in Vincent.
Vincent’s lips curled into a smile. He turned over and pulled over a freshly cleaned quilt. He said softly, “Modify the shape!”
A faint bright light appeared and the quilt in Vincent’s hand instantly transformed into his own figure. It was lying quietly on his bed.
Vincent sat up and sized up the clone that he had created. Other than the figure not breathing, all the other details were perfect. Vincent nodded with some relief.
He then raised his hand and gently swiped the edge of the bed, opening the space door. He then entered the space tunnel.
After entering the space tunnel, Vincent was no longer worried about being monitored. He instantly changed back to his own appearance. He then began to dive underground in high spirits.
With the Art of Heavenly’s Will formula, Vincent’s memory of the terrain became very strong. As long as it was a place that he had been to, he could find it again with his eyes closed.
Vincent did not need to travel through the Well of Filth. He could directly go to the bottom of the Well of Filth through the space tunnel!
When Vincent arrived at the space tunnel where the demons lived in his memory, he suddenly realized that the soil and rocks around him seemed to be somewhat strange. It was as if they were being constantly eroded by some dark power. It seemed that right below the palace, there was something hidden that was constantly emitting dark energy!
When Vincent saw this, he immediately became curious. He wanted to find out what the demons were up to, so he continued to sneak forward, carefully searching every inch of the soil.
When Vincent was traveling beneath the palace, he suddenly discovered that there was actually a huge space in the soil. He was shocked to find an array floating in the air. It had a radius of more than ten meters!
The light of the array was black and purple. It was slowly rotating as if it was constantly absorbing energy from somewhere underground. The energy that was absorbed would then be converted into the most sinister and evil aura of the Demon World through the array. The aura of the Demon World would then continue to nourish the palace above. In the end, it would be absorbed by the eight demons in the palace.
In other words, even if those demons were to stay in the palace all day, living a life of luxury, they would still be able to improve their own strength!
Moreover, judging by the size of the array, it was not difficult to judge that the speed of their improvement was still very considerable!
However, what Vincent could not imagine was, what exactly was the thing that existed in the depths of the earth that could provide the array with an endless supply of energy?
“Could it be that this energy was drawn from the bottom of the Well of Filth?”
A bold thought suddenly arose in Vincent’s mind. The demons had long known what was hidden in the Well of Filth, but they did not want to let out the thing below the Well of Filth. Thus, they continued to absorb the energy below greedily.
This made Vincent even more interested in the thing below the Well of Filth. He simply could not wait to jump further down.
After several more jumps, Vincent finally arrived somewhere below the Well of Filth, but he was still very far away from the glowing space below. However, he could clearly see that there were many rotting corpses hanging around the dried-up walls of the well. Moreover, from the looks of it, these corpses were all elves who worshipped the Elf Kings!
Those elves were most likely killed by the Dark Elves who received the Heavenly Demon Token and were later brought to Imperial City. The demons in the Imperial City handled the corpses in a very consistent manner. They threw them all into the Well of Filth.
However, in Vincent’s eyes, their actions were not casual. Instead, they were related to the mysterious power under the well!
“Maybe there is something under the sacrificial well, or perhaps it is something that is being kept alive!”
Vincent continued to ponder in his heart. He became somewhat worried.
This was because the various phenomena in the surroundings and the strange actions of the demons seemed to indicate a problem. The existence under the well should be alive or self-aware. It was definitely not a cold object!
When Vincent finally arrived at the deepest part of the well, his eyes could not help but throb violently. That was because he saw six figures at the bottom of the well; they were unable to move freely!
