The Psychopath Meets Indigo
Chapter 129 - Hundreds of Snake Tails

There is no wasted struggle.

***

Xiao, Chan and Theo were already huddling the ancient books. They opened the book sheet by sheet.

"The book is strange." Chan comments with a frown. However, his attention is not diverted from the writings in the book.

Everyone including Xiao did not understand the contents of the book. But somehow the book is very interesting and curious. It was as if it had a certain aura for everyone to be attracted to it.

Xiao almost gave up on finding out, until he finally threw his book on the floor. "Sucks, we better find the gun as soon as possible!" grumbled Xiao, then moved his feet towards the exit.

The book that Xiao threw fell open. Right on a page where there's a drawing of a sword. Chan became the only person who noticed him. He took back the ancient book.

"Xiao!" call him, which immediately required Xiao to undo the intention to leave.

"I think it's a guidebook on magical swords. Here it is explained how to use it!" chan said while reading the writing in the book. His index finger runs under the letters that form dozens of sentences on the paper.

Xiao rushed over, then snatched the ancient book from Chan's hands. He made sure his own writing was there.

"It looks like Chan is right!" Theo agreed with Chan. The book's explanation seems convincing.

"Come on, but there's no clue where the gun is" Xiao said, closing the book and handing it over to Chan. "We better take it!"

Chan nodded his head. He hurriedly stuffed the ancient book into the bag. Then he and the others went back to the castle again.

Time keeps passing. Xiao, Chan and Theo had already searched the various rooms in the castle. No, they have not been able to find the weapons they are looking for. Until they arrived on the roof. The place they thought was the last location.

"I don't think it's possible that the gun is here." Theo expressed his opinion. Both of his shoulders were raised once.

"Be quiet, Theo, don't say anything that makes us lose hope!" crush Xiao with a frown. He kept spreading his gaze to all directions.

Because they don't get what they're looking for. Xiao directed his eyeballs towards Devgan. He felt strange with Devgan's silence since coming to the castle.

"Devgan, tell me you actually know where the gun is, right? you deliberately didn't tell me out of fear that I might kill you!"

"No! what do you mean?!" Devgan reflexively raised both of his hands. He somewhat confusedly responded to Xiao's suspicions towards him.

"Quick say!" urged Xiao, his chest was seen moving up and down as a result of holding back the mounting anger.

Devgan was silent for a moment. Until a while later, he finally said, "The sword is in the basement of the castle. I'm sorry Xiao. You should have asked from the beginning..."

Chan and Theo who were looking were just mute. The two of them certainly understood that Xiao was communicating with Devgan.

Xiao tried to calm himself down within a few seconds. His head that had been bowed down was slowly raised. "Devgan said the gun was underground!" he said, then walked first down the stairs.

"What?!" moaning Chan while holding his head. He's obviously upset, because now they're on the roof. That meant, if they wanted to go to the basement, they would have to go through many more stairs. A long breath came out of his nose.

"Chan, are you okay?" asked Theo, when he witnessed the anxiety on Chan's face.

"I'm just tired." said Chan as he leaned over and held onto his knees.

"Do you want me to carry?" Theo positioned himself against Chan, and shoved his back to ride. He just behaved as he should as a man.

"It's okay Theo, I can still walk" Chan said as he patted Theo's back gently facing her.

"Don't tell me you don't want to, out of fear of Xiao," said Theo, who slightly turned his mouth to the right.

"No really! I can still walk!" firmly Chan pouted. Then immediately forced his foot to step following Xiao. Theo only chuckled while shaking in disbelief. He rushed after Chan.

Xiao had been waiting for Chan and Theo to be put on a ladder. Next to his feet was seen toyed with to accompany his boredom. After seeing the appearance of Chan, then he galloped again.

It took me half an hour to get down. Especially to the basement which is clearly hidden behind the black old door.

Xiao opened the basement door slowly. Darkness immediately greeted his vision. There was also the sound of a lot of hissing from down there. While Theo took the initiative to turn on the flashlight. Then direct it into the basement.

The eyes of Xiao, Chan and Theo widened at the same time. Because the room was filled with many snakes. Causing the blood all over their bodies to swish violently.

"The devgan? you can handle it, right?" Xiao opened his eyes at Devgan.

"Well, I'll try as much as I can." Devgan had to lead the way first. He immediately picked up the hundreds of snakes that were writhing before him. Then separate the body of the snake into two parts. Devgan did it strong and fast. Until it makes the hissing sound decreases. A sign that all the snakes that exist have been killed.

Xiao finally darkened his feet in the basement. Stepping carefully, past the snake carcasses strewn across the floor.

"Is this Devgan?" chan asked as he watched the snake carcass around him. His hands closed both nostrils. Because the fishy and rotten smell greatly disturbs his sense of smell.

"you reckon? isn't that obvious Chan!" growled Xiao while rolling his eyeballs. From a distance he could see a sword lying on the floor. The sword looked as if it was emitting a green-colored neon.

"Friends, can you see it?" xiao asked to make sure. His hand pointed towards the thing he mentioned.

"Yes, but we can only see the hilt," replied Theo, noticing an object that he thought was only a sword hilt. But he and Chan knew that was what they had been looking for.
