Chapter 500 - 43. David One
"Cardinal?"
"Yes, Mr. Fisher, you can call me Cardinal, or ’David,’ or ’David One.’ I can specifically recognize the name you address me by, so don’t worry."
David One?
Why does it sound not like a person, but like a serial number for some device?
Could it be that the one conversing with me now isn’t the Cardinal himself, but a machine with his will?
Fisher chewed over this title, spit out by the other party, in his mind. According to the Creation Society’s categorization of so-called owners of the Completion Manual, it was very likely that the other party was the owner of the "Cardinal Completions Manual."
He silently raised his guard to its maximum. One must always be vigilant when dealing with owners of the Completion Manual, especially after the other party had demonstrated those unique aspects of the Completion Manual.
The room was filled with the stench of blood. The choking smell came from the scattered chunks of corpses everywhere. At the edges of the corpse pieces, Fisher spotted several completely inactive small tentacles, clearly Erwin’s doing. After a more thorough inspection, Fisher also saw a severed arm with the tattoo of the Nali Overseas Secret Bureau on the ground.
They seemed to have been sliced by some kind of sharp, scorching weapon. The splattered blood on the walls and floor emitted a smell of being scorched, making the air as repulsive as a pot of burnt meat soup.
Next to the room, a Cloud Cat Species stood like a doll, just blankly watching Fisher inside the room, appearing like a doll without consciousness.
