Chapter 549: Third Chapter of the Miracle (2)

It can be said that the modern day tensions between the two nations was the culmination of the seeds of conflict sown by Rumantsev hundreds of years ago.

His heart was awash with emotions, yet the most dominant emotion right now was that of caution.

After a few seconds of deliberation, Qin Ye spoke, “Continue.”

Sometimes, all a person had to do was to loosen the drawstring of a bag. Everything would flow out on its own after that.

She opened her mouth, and a scroll of parchment flew out. Without hesitation, Oda Nobutada immediately received it and carefully examined its contents. After some time, he finally nodded and passed it on to Qin Ye.

This serpent was so ubiquitously known that there was no need for explanations. Qin Ye scrutinized the etching, only to discover that the snake… was in fact composed by countless Yin talismans!

“Ouroboros…” He tapped his armrest and muttered to himself, “It symbolizes the unity and eternity of the universe. In ancient Norse mythology, it represents the giant serpent, Jormungandr, that encircled the world and bit its own tail. Its shape represents immortality, completeness, infinitude, the world, and a multitude of other meanings. But, most of all, this isn’t a technique of the Russian Underworld.”

“Is this the root source of the zombies that you’ve been creating?”

Qin Ye’s eyes flickered wildly at once.

He had gone to great lengths to capture Ahn Somi in order to pursue the lead he had on the nameless god of death’s script! This one one of the primary reasons why he was in Daehan this early on!

By now, Qin Ye had already braced himself for the reality that casting myths and fabricating miracles was going to be an incredibly difficult process. Everything would have to be well-considered, while the implementation would have to be done like a tightly-run ship. Even the script would have to be as watertight as possible.

“They’ve selected a total of three persons. This little one doesn’t know their identity…” Ahn Somi delved deep into her memories, “The first time we came together was 14 years ago. Back then, we all wore masks, and I could tell that we were all Anitya Hellguard. I’m not quite sure where the meeting location was as well. It was almost as though I was suddenly whisked off to oblivion, only to suddenly appear in the meeting a moment later… I-I know it sounds outrageous, but I’m telling the truth! Please believe me!”

It was a simple task for an Abyssal Prefect to drag a few Abyssal Prefects to a particular location.

“Whenever a crucial phase of our work is complete, there would be a need to handover the work properly. That’s the only instance that the three Yin spirits involved would all be present at the meeting. Otherwise, we’d ordinarily pass on our work to each other through the envoy as a conduit. There’s no chance for us to meet up with the other Yin spirits involved at all.”

Everything works through point-to-point interactions. None of them would ever be given the opportunity to get in contact with each other… The Russian Underworld clearly knows that they’re playing with fire, but I’m willing to bet that they’d never have expected Hell to not give a damn about these things!

“Details.” Qin Ye spoke curtly.

“The Eternal Serpent Technique was given directly to me. I’m not sure if the other two Yin spirits received the same technique or not. Regardless, my mission…”

“Over the last ten years, I’ve transported at least hundreds of zombies in the exact same fashion!” She gritted her teeth, “I was only responsible for manufacturing and shipping, but nothing else beyond that. I don’t know where exactly it was sent to, or who the intended recipient was. I only know that… my task is only complete when a train full of zombies arrives in Gyeonggi Province at the scheduled intervals.”

Three Yin spirits, three roles and functions. It is only when these functions are stitched together that one would finally have the full picture of the nameless god of death’s script, and the corollary myth and miracle that he was attempting to fabricate in order to give the Hanyang Underworld proper footing to stand on.

The three ghosts clearly didn’t know each other. This would ensure that none were any wiser as to the true form, means and purposes of the nameless god of death’s script. Sure, there weren’t many Hellguard-class Yin spirits in Hanyang, and it wasn’t entirely impossible for them to get in touch with each other privately. However…

Three was the perfect number. Involving only two Yin spirits would mean that there were only two pieces to the puzzle. They’d easily be able to reverse engineer the workings of the other Yin spirit from the overall results and decipher just what exactly the script entailed. But with three parts to the puzzle, things would only be far more complicated. Not only would each of their roles be smaller and more limited, and they would be that much further away from the truth.

The true function of King Yanluo should never be disclosed to others.

Ahn Somi remained silent. She had said everything there was to be said about the duties entrusted to her. Their roles were broken up like an assembly line. Each Yin spirit was responsible for one component, but Tsar Arturo was the director who was putting everything together behind the scenes.

“Firstly, why did you reach out and contact Lee Jung-sook?”

She took a deep breath, “It was only after I took over this portfolio that I finally understood how terrifying this woman was. She’s obviously a mortal, but she’s got the conglomerate Samsung dancing in the palm of her hands. That’s Samsung we’re talking about! It’s one of the pillars of the Daeian economy!”

Holy crap…

Bloody hell… We’re talking about a giant alligator in the river! How peculiar would a train containing that many zombies be? Yet… she’d actually been able to obtain the approval of the Ministry of Railways all this while?!

Qin Ye looked up with a complicated gaze, “What were her views on these things?”

Qin Ye’s lips parted slightly, and his lips grew parched.

She wanted access to the underworld so that she could be given eternal death. This was one of the means she was pursuing to end her life once and for all.

Qin Ye’s heart was wrenched with pain.

“Secondly.” He gazed deeply into Ahn Somi’s eyes, “About Daehan… Did anything happen here recently that caused a stir in society, or quite possibly even tore the fabric of society and struck fear into the hearts of the citizens?”

No?

Ahn Somi frowned. After some time, she shook her head firmly, “I’m certain that there was none.”

Just then, she paused. Qin Ye immediately caught on, “You’ve thought of something else?”

Unfortunately, it was impossible for any suppression of information to be completely watertight.

“That said, these are just rumours and hearsay. We’re strictly forbidden from probing into each other’s areas of responsibility, and that area... “ She paused for a moment, “Is the responsibility of No. 2.”

Daehan had no military sovereignty.

But Qin Ye had a feeling that none of these were the places he was looking for.

And that was in the headquarters of the Catholic Diocese in Daehan!

Ahn Somi shook her head. She glanced at Qin Ye’s expression, only to realize that he was frowning deeply. Thus, she immediately went on, “But… I’m sure there’s a person who would definitely know! And she would even be granted free access to these places!”

“That’s right!” Ahn Somi nodded affirmatively, “All you need to do is to locate her, and all of your problems will be resolved!”

Qin Ye frowned once more.

I guess… there’s no point pursuing the lead on the script anymore. But should I look further into the identity of ‘No. 2’... or should I search for Lee Jung-sook?
