Chapter 529 530. Absurd
A groggy mind is a good target for being affected by the Sign of Yaksi.
Even so, Lan En still had to knock the unlucky cult guard unconscious three times through his helmet, and each time he used the [Yaxsi Sign] to pry his mouth open.
The warrior's will is strong enough, but the demon hunter's [Axxi Sign] is not very powerful.
So if it weren't for the chaos magic reserve in Lan En's body that increased as his body became stronger, he might not be able to afford this consumption.
Finally, Lan En kicked the religious guard who had been ravaged for a long time into the bungalow again.
Brisson?
The demon hunter who finished dealing with the cult guards held his chin and muttered to himself.
This is the information he just got from the other party.
He did not know who this man was and what his status and power was in the city of Athens. [Yaxsi Dharma] also doesnt support making it clear.
Lan En then returned to Phidiass workshop with a piece of papyrus with an order written on it that he had found from the cult guard.
Early the next morning, Phidias, who had not slept soundly for nearly half a month, got up.
As he stretched his muscles, he felt refreshed as never before.
Lan Ens [Yaxsi Sign] last night really gave him a good sleep.
If he hadn't seen the olive oil residue on the door, he would have thought he just had a nightmare last night.
When Phidias came downstairs, he saw Lan sitting at the dinner table, and the little girl with the witcher had disappeared.
She has her own things to do and her own practice sessions.
Lan watched Phidias go downstairs, seeming to see the doubts in his heart, and explained aloud.
"How did you sleep last night? I used a little trick on you, I hope you don't mind."
Phidias sat down opposite Lan with an apology on his face.
"No, it's nothing. On the contrary, I should thank you for letting me have a good sleep, otherwise I always feel that I will die in the room after a few days."
Also, I was very rude to you last night, Im sorry
As an apology, no matter how many drachmas Alcibiades paid for this task, I will pay you another sum of the same price!
Lan En nodded indifferently and accepted the other party's apology.
Then he was still holding the barley bread in one hand, and with the other hand he took out a piece of papyrus from the alchemy leather bag on his waist and threw it to Phidias across the dining table.
"Let's see."
When he threw it over, Lan En still had a wicked smile on his lips.
This is what those people are going to do to you.
The master sculptor picked up the papyrus hesitantly, then looked at it for a short while and then quickly threw it away, as if the paper had burned his hands and eyes.
O Zeus! Phidias moaned with trembling lips, those demons! Beasts!
It would be better for me to fall among hungry wolves than to fall into their hands!
There were only orders on the piece of paper, but no signature. So Lane gives Phidias the name of the man who wants to kill him.
Brisson is the person who issued this order. Do you know this person?
Brisson? Phidias asked in surprise. He obviously recognized this name.
He is the son of Mystia, and his mother and father are also outstanding artists in Athens! Why would he do such a thing?
"Who knows? I just want to investigate and find out. I don't know the other party's motives." After learning that the other party was the son of an artist, Lan En felt that things should be much easier to handle.
Understanding who was targeting him, Phidias's anger, which was tortured to the point of almost collapse, finally found a target to pour out. The famous sculptor in Athens immediately used his connections.
After a while, Alcibiades rushed over first.
"Pericles was entangled, and he asked me to handle it. You know that, Phidias. The war is going badly, and Cleon's reputation is rising with it. If you want to suppress him now, you can use Febericles. After a lot of effort, its very different from before.
Alcibiades seemed very familiar with it as soon as he entered the workshop. He sat directly opposite Lan En, with that cynical smile still on his face.
"Okay, let's get down to business. Are you saying Brisson is a member of that cult?"
My dear Zeus, when I first heard about such a secret organization, I thought it was a new play written by Aristophanes!
Reality can often make even the most absurd scripts seem logical. Lan En raised the pottery cup in his hand towards Alcibiades.
The wine inside is sprinkled with cinnamon powder and mixed with pomegranate juice. This is Phidias's private way of drinking.
At this time in Athens, drinking pure unadulterated wine was considered barbaric.
Why dont you just tell me, who is Brisson?
"You've asked the right person. I know him quite well. He's a very handsome young man. Of course, he's far from you, my dear." Alcibiades described Brisson easily, and it sounded like they were indeed Very familiar.
But among the crowd of people, you can still distinguish his beauty at the first sight.
"And just like all beautiful men, or rich men, or men who are both. Everyone thinks that Brisson is easy to get along with, but no one thinks that he is majestic and not easy to mess with. To be honest, Pericles and I were really surprised when you revealed this name."
"Heh, when you see what he's going to do to me, I wish you could still call him 'easy to get along with.'"
Phidias, who was standing aside, sneered. There was hatred in that voice, after all, he was almost driven crazy by the other party.
Putting aside Phidias, who was obviously emotionally charged, Lane continued to negotiate with Alcibiades.
Didnt Pericles realize that there was such a secret force in the city of Athens and that it had evil intentions?
Amber cat eyes looked at each other suspiciously.
The other party kept playing with the gold olive collar around his neck.
"He noticed it, but it was of no use. The other party is a secret organization, which means that the tree has deep roots. Compared with the city of Athens itself, even Pericles is just a 'young man'. This is a city that is growing rapidly. A city founded in the days of Scyna.
Even before you came here, we only knew the name The Cult of Kosmos at most. This is why we didnt think about the Cult of Kosmos when Phidias complained.
We know too little about them.
"That's better than me. I only knew about 'theism' before."
Lan shrugged.
So, how is Pericles going to deal with Brisson? This is a good breakthrough, isnt it?
Are you going to send someone to arrest him? Or are you offering a reward for mercenaries to do it?
Actually At this point, Alcibiades smiled sheepishly. "Pericles hopes that this matter will end 'quickly and simply' without involving anything."
Lan En raised his eyebrows after hearing this. In other words, Pericles wanted Brisson to die neatly?
This is illogical. Is this a valuable source of intelligence?
What a valuable piece of information. Alcibiades said with a rather sarcastic smile. "It's nothing compared to the stability of the political situation. Cleon is chasing Pericles on the podium, and any disturbance may give him an advantage."
After all, reality can make even the most absurd script seem logical, right?
