Chapter 1196: Clues to the King's Treasury
"03 and 04...?" Number 02 frowned.
"I must reiterate once more, this is merely my intuition as a Prophet, and I cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information... All I can give you is his activity trajectory for the past three days." Lin Qiye spoke solemnly.
"I understand."
"Praise the God of Magic." Lin Qiye smiled and bid farewell.
Number 02 seemed to have made up his mind, stood up, and left the room.
Soon, the next Agent walked in.
"I'm a Prophet..."
Lin Qiye pushed up his monocle and repeated the introduction.
Time passed, and the Agents in Lin Qiye's room changed one after another.
Among them, an Agent who knew Zhou Ping's whereabouts had entered the room. Using the information about the Dual-God Agent, Lin Qiye exchanged it for Zhou Ping's clues.
According to him, Zhou Ping had remained in Olympus for the past month, joining the camp of Nyx, the Goddess of Night, to oppose Zeus's faction and participate in a divine war.
However, not long ago, after Nyx's camp fell into a passive situation, Zhou Ping disappeared from Olympus. It seemed he had received a request from Nyx to track down several Zeus-affiliated deities.
After that, he never appeared again.
From the conversation, Lin Qiye could tell this was an Agent affiliated with the Olympian Gods, and seemingly part of Zeus's faction... He was very clear about the struggles between the two camps.
But he was tight-lipped. Even with Lin Qiye's probing, he couldn't extract any other useful information.
Zhou Ping was tasked by Nyx to track down Zeus-affiliated deities?
In Lin Qiye's mind, the sword slash discovered on the road to paradise suddenly surfaced.
That sword slash was left during the chase between Zhou Ping and three Chief God-level powerhouses... Could those three be the Zeus-affiliated deities the Agent mentioned?
The information he could extract from this Agent was limited. For the rest, he could only wait until all his transactions were complete, then see if the hidden Number 03 Deity could provide useful information.
The personnel continued to rotate. Finally, the long-awaited Number 22 pushed open the door and entered the room.
Number 22 possessed clues to the King's Treasury, and was also one of the Agents who wanted Lin Qiye's whereabouts.
Both placed the silver coins engraved with each other's numbers on the table. Lin Qiye spoke calmly:
"Since we both have what the other wants, let's trade directly."
Number 22 chuckled lightly, "Is that so? But I think your筹码 isn't enough..."
Lin Qiye frowned, "What do you mean?"
"You're different from those shortsighted fools outside. You raised your hand proactively, which means you should know its value. Its clues... are far more valuable than the whereabouts of a Dual-God Agent." Number 22 spoke unhurriedly, "To exchange for this clue, you need more筹码."
Lin Qiye stared at him silently for a moment, then waved his hand. Several oddly shaped artifacts appeared on the table.
These were all items he had exchanged from various Agents during the previous transactions.
The筹码 these Agents could exchange with Lin Qiye were nothing more than insider intelligence about various divine kingdoms or special forbidden items—useless to Lin Qiye for now, but he didn't care. His purpose was simply to stir up the waters.
"A bunch of scrap metal..." Number 22 glanced at the table dismissively, but waved his hand and collected them all anyway.
"Right, aren't you the Agent of the God of Prophecy and Magic? Predict my recent fortune, and we'll call it even." As if remembering something, he said with interest.
Lin Qiye glanced at him:
"You... have a disaster of bloodshed in your near future."
Even through the hood, Lin Qiye could sense that Number 22's expression had soured.
"Is that supposed to be a prophecy?"
"Your future does indeed have a disaster of bloodshed." Lin Qiye said sincerely,
"I swear by the name of the God of Magic."
Of course you'll have a disaster of bloodshed.
Not just you—every Agent here who wants me dead will have a disaster of bloodshed... If not, then I'll be your disaster of bloodshed.
Lin Qiye thought to himself.
Hearing this, Number 22 began to waver between belief and doubt. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke proactively:
"I can tell you the location of the King's Treasury, but I must warn you—there's a Divine-level turtle guarding that treasury. I couldn't get in at the time, so I don't know if there are actually treasures inside..."
A Divine-level turtle?
Could it be something left behind by Gilgamesh?
Just as Lin Qiye was puzzled, Number 22 continued: "The King's Treasury is on this Divine-level turtle's back. Though it moves extremely slowly, I can tell you an approximate range—it's somewhere in that area."
Number 22 took out a hastily drawn world map from his chest and drew a circle at a certain location in the Mozambique Strait. Lin Qiye memorized the location, then casually rubbed it, turning the map to ash.
"What are you doing? I only brought one map! I need it to trade with Number 03 later!"
Seeing Lin Qiye destroy the map without hesitation, Number 22 panicked.
Lin Qiye feigned surprise, "Oh? I thought you put the map on the table as part of the trade... I didn't know you only had one copy."
Number 22 frowned for a long moment before sighing heavily, "Forget it. I'll just hand-draw a simpler map for him later. Now tell me the whereabouts of the Dual-God Agent."
Lin Qiye repeated the same explanation he'd given others, but didn't mention anything about suspecting Numbers 03 and 04's identities.
Number 22 would be trading face-to-face with Number 03 later. Lin Qiye was worried that if Number 22 suspected his identity, he might probe during the transaction and cause unexpected trouble.
"Dual-God Agent... It would be quite something to interrogate him for his secrets." Number 22 chuckled lightly and stood up from his seat.
Then, as if remembering something:
"Right, one last reminder—that Divine-level turtle is not to be trifled with... Below Divine level, it's impossible to break through its封锁, but deities can't enter that treasury either. It's an unsolvable situation."
Lin Qiye was stunned.
"Deities can't enter that treasury?"
"Of course not." Number 22 said slowly, "Gilgamesh himself was half-divine. During his life, he despised deities the most. Why would the treasury he left behind allow deities to touch it?
Moreover, I hear Olympian deities are also searching for this treasury. The waters here are too deep. For Agents like us, if we can't handle it, the further away we stay, the better."
With that, Number 22 stepped out of the room to find Number 03 for their transaction.
