Chapter 450 The Blood Cultivator Has Arrived at Sea?
"Are you sure this is 'The Slaughterer' Gilchias?"
Jante pressed for an answer.
His red nose was glowing from excitement.
"It's definitely him. Just send it to the Church of Storms; they'll definitely have a way to confirm it."
Anderson had witnessed Gilchrist's death firsthand, so he was naturally very confident.
"That's good."
Hearing this, Jante nodded excitedly. He began to circle the body, examining it and clicking his tongue in disapproval.
"Anderson, you're amazing! You actually managed to hunt down the second mate of 'The Undying King' Agaritu!" he exclaimed excitedly. "Now, you can definitely be called the 'Strongest Hunter' in the Sunia Sea!"
"No, I didn't kill Gilchias."
Upon hearing the other party attribute the success of hunting the "slaughterer" to him, Anderson quickly denied it, saying, "I killed two other people."
He was joking; he wouldn't dare steal the spotlight from Gascoigne.
"If it's not you? Then who is it?"
"Jante asked curiously."
That's right. The way the corpse was "packed" certainly doesn't seem like Anderson's style. He was just thinking this when he saw the "Strongest Hunter of the Misty Sea" across from him speak, his mouth opening and closing to give the answer:
"The one who killed Gilchias was the Blood Monk."
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding atmosphere fell silent again.
No, to be precise, they were practically frozen. Everyone stared at Anderson, as if he had just said something incomprehensible.
"Wait a minute. Their reaction is strange."
Anderson quickly sensed something amiss. "Could it be that there's some secret hidden in the name 'Blood Monk' that I don't know about?"
He initially thought that the "Blood Cultivator" was a rising adventurer who had rapidly gained prominence during his time trapped in the ruins of the Gods' War, which was why he spoke of it so freely. He even intended to help spread the word about the other person. But judging from everyone's current state, it was probably more than that!
"I was just kidding."
Anderson immediately put on a smiling face.
"You mean, what you just said was a lie?"
"Of course! How about that, were you scared? Your reactions are really interesting."
Anderson said with a grin.
"Damn it! You're still as awful as ever!"
Jante was furious, but he also seemed to breathe a huge sigh of relief.
There's definitely something wrong.
Anderson maintained a smile, but in his heart he became increasingly convinced that there was something he didn't know.
"I'll come to collect the money tomorrow, remember to prepare it for me as soon as possible."
He calmly told the cursing and rambling Jant to throw the three corpses on the ground. Then he walked out of the Adventurers' Guild and went to a nearby bar.
"A glass of South Wales beer."
He tossed a few coins down and said to the bartender.
The bartender took the money and served him a glass of beer with fine foam and golden liquid.
"Anything interesting happening lately?"
Anderson took a sip of his beer and asked casually. He was no longer in the mood to savor the beer; he was eager to find out about the so-called "Blood Monks." "I just finished a long voyage, and news is scarce."
"Something new happens every day on the high seas."
The bartender, wiping glasses, glanced at him and said.
"Let's talk about that 'Blood Cultivator'. I've seen people talking about that name."
Anderson hinted indirectly.
"It seems you've been at sea for quite some time; you didn't even know he was there."
The bartender chuckled, but out of consideration for Anderson's generous tip, he continued, "He's a criminal who's been on the run recently."
After figuring out the situation, he was completely shocked.
He actually bombarded the palace and attacked the king on the last day of the year, and he had committed many dangerous acts before that. Gascoigne is much crazier than I imagined! No wonder everyone reacted that way after hearing his name!
"The wine is good."
Anderson calmly finished his beer and turned to leave. Before he went out, he scanned the wall where the wanted posters were displayed in the bar, finally spotting a newly posted one near the Four Kings:
Blood Cultivator
Regardless of life or death
Bounty: 120000
The wanted poster didn't show any specific facial features, only a blurry figure in a robe, with a line of small print below: "Always wears a blood-red robe and utters evil prayers."
£12
Anderson counted the zeros on the bounty poster carefully before stepping out of the bar. He walked steadily until he entered a deserted alley, then sped up and ran quickly towards the hotel.
Oops!
We are in danger!
Although I managed to get away with it just now, the state of the blood-red crystals easily reminded me of the Shepherd's Path. If they thought about it more carefully, they might report me. I must go back and tell Gascoigne immediately!
Anderson regretted it; he hadn't expected that simply saying a name would have such serious consequences.
When he arrived at the hotel they had agreed to meet, he found Lu Ze checking in at the front desk.
"What's wrong?"
When Lu Ze saw him rush in and that his expression was not good, he waved his hand, hypnotizing the others present, before asking the question.
"Um, I'm very sorry."
Anderson forced a smile and said, "I didn't know what the name 'Blood Monk' meant before, and I revealed it to the mutual aid society."
He briefly explained what had just happened, becoming increasingly uneasy as he spoke, fearing that the other party might displease him and let him roam freely. "We should leave here as soon as possible to avoid being reported by them."
"Oh, this? It's nothing."
After hearing his words, Lu Ze waved his hand calmly, "Let them report it."
He had just been promoted to Sequence 4 Demigod and was looking for someone to practice on.
While the royal family's pursuit is troublesome, high-ranking angels won't easily mobilize, and mid-to-low-ranking angels are unlikely to be able to completely eliminate him. In the short term, even if his location is exposed, it won't be a problem.
Moreover, what he plans to do next will openly expose his presence at sea.
"You don't mind?"
Anderson asked, extremely surprised.
Not at all.
As Luzer answered, he wrote down his current name in the register—Alexander Gascoigne. Again, since they were going to be exposed sooner or later anyway, they might as well associate this false name with themselves.
"this"
Anderson didn't know what to say.
So, we should just ignore them?
"There are still empty rooms here. Please book one for yourself, then come to my room. I have something to ask you."
Lu Ze didn't give him time to hesitate. He spoke directly, then picked up the black cat and went up to the second floor first.
Anderson stood at the front desk on the first floor for a while, his expression changing rapidly, before finally gritting his teeth and booking a room as well. He didn't bring much luggage, so after getting the key, he went straight to find Luze.
"What's the matter?"
Anderson asked as soon as he entered.
Luze had booked the best room. Luna stomped around on the soft mattress while he sat in a sofa chair to the side.
"Give me detailed information about the seven pirate generals and four pirate kings."
He stretched out in the chair.
This can also be considered as getting a head start on understanding the situation of future peers.
