Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 552: Experimental Journal of the Filthy Devil

Lin Xiao knew that the normal-looking mural was the switch, but he also knew that it wasnt something that anyone could just open.

Other than Nick, even if someone knew it was a switch, they wouldnt be able to activate the secret passage, but Elena?

You

What? If you want to praise me, then hurry up and say it.

When we get back, I decided Im not going to give you a bowl of soup.

Then what do you want?

I decided Im going to give you two bowls! An extra bowl, are you happy?

Ha ha hilarious lets go!

Elena forced a laugh at his joke and shoved him into the passageway and followed close behind.

They knew there must be a secret waiting for them at the end of the passageway so they stopped messing around.

At important times, they became extremely cooperative as Lin Xiao walked ahead to defend against ambush and Elena used her perception to warn him of anything.

But the good thing was that they didnt encounter any traps, it was just a normal hidden passageway.

They headed down and quickly arrived at the basement, although it was closed with a thick steel door and multiple magic locks, they were nothing but scrap metal against Elenas fist.

Violent maid!

What? You dont like it?

No, I like it, if youre really a violent maid, Ill like you even more.

Please dont confess to me so nonchalantly, pervert, youre disgusting.

Ah? Elena thought about his words and felt a bit awkward, Although it was intended as a confession, even if you were going to reject me, at least say Im a good person, isnt that insult too much?

Is it?

Of course! Isnt calling me disgusting too much?

Oh sorry, I thought it was a compliment for you, because a pervert like you isnt worthy of it.

Okay, I know your tongue has gotten much more poisonous, the demon king is amazing! Lets go!

Lin Xiao lead her into the dark basement. Because the security system was already destroyed by Elena, the lights didnt work either. So Lin Xiao had to toss out some light balls to illuminate the surroundings.

This is a research lab?

Looking at the strange lab equipment, beakers, test tubes, and strangely colored medicine, Lin Xiao was reminded of another place! The setting in front of him looks just like Snows research lab! Although he wasnt able to name everything, they all looked very familiar, but this place was much more gloomy and depressing since it didnt see the light of day.

Lin Xiao look!

She pulled Lin Xiao to a nearby rack, took a box from the top, and opened it.

These are all black cores?

Hah Nick, so you were the third apostle as expected!

When they finally found concrete evidence, Lin Xiao couldnt help but shake his head and remember what had happened in the past and suddenly felt everything becoming clear.

Lin Xiao had always found Nick strange and had some inexplicable suspicions.

Such as, why did he head toward Yellowstone and follow Snow to welcome everyone?

Like, why did he keep chasing after Claire and was never discouraged after being rejected so much?

Also, why was he hostile toward Lin Xiao and so concerned with Snows experiments that he made her feel killing intent?

Because he was the third apostle!

Now everything has become clear!

Nick went to Yellowstone to try and silence everyone! But because of Lin Xiao, he couldnt do anything and instead became a bodyguard. If it werent for Lin Xiao, Caear, Rosie and the other investigators would have all been killed!

And the reason he was chasing after Claire was simple as the third apostle, if he could become Claires husband, then he would have more power, more resources for their evil plans!

Unfortunately, Nick failed, just a good face wasnt enough to win Claires favor, it was Lin Xiao, whom Claire hated initially, who relied on his strength and character to win her heart!

As for the last one, why he was hostile toward Lin Xiao of course he would be hostile since Lin Xiao was his number one enemy!

Killed his underlings, ruined his undertakings, stole his woman there was deep-seated hatred and absolutely irreconcilable! It was good that Nick was good at enduring, otherwise if it were anyone else, wouldnt they have gone straight at it with Lin Xiao?

Then based on that it seems like I really am bad, tripping him everywhere. If I were him, I would have already exploded!

But what did he go do?

If Nick was the third apostle and he was just severely injured, he should be recuperating at home, why did he go out?

Hm? Whats this?

After putting down the box and walking next to the test bench, he found a strange diary.

On the messy table, the equipment was scattered about, only this notebook was placed squarely in the center with a pencil next to it.

Lin Xiao and Elena looked at each other and he knew that this notebook was very likely an important research diary. After Elena made sure there were no traps, he picked up the notebook, opened it, and began reading.

Fist of severance?

When they flipped opened the book and saw the large stamped words and the familiar sun and moon picture, Lin Xiao was startled and Elena also came closer and began reading.

Fist of severance, perhaps that was the codename for this operation, or some sort of secret code, but anyway, it had to do with Gotham Kingdoms disaster!

Lin Xiao flipped to the end of the diary and began reading.

Fist of severance, day 386.

Today, the Snow Witch is already in the final stages of her experiment and only requires the holy crystal fruit, I cant let her succeed! Its good that she is too scared to go looking for it herself, and she actually asks her foolish brother Lin Xiao I dont get it, why does Snow have so much faith in that brat?

Anyway, I already set a trap and once that idiot Lin Xiao gets caught, then he, his maid, and his lover will all die in the wilderness!

Actually, his plan wasnt bad, its just that I was too strong.

Is that so? But who missed his eight-level magic, wasted his magic power, and almost died?

Uh Okay, let me ask, who was it that threw herself into my arms, stripped, revealed her chest and helped me recharge?

Enough! Just get back to reading!

Elena knew it was the end of the journal so she flipped ahead a few pages.

Fist of severance, day 337.

Everything is going according to plan, I have full control over Gotham Kingdom! Claire cant do anything by herself, no one can stop me! I shall be the biggest contributor to the coming of the new gods!

But it seems like theres a bunch of silly investigators from Lombard Kingdom but no matter, they wont be able to disrupt the plan! Caesar, whos in the lead is already trapped in Yellowstone by Darkness, even if he finds the black core, he wont come back alive!

Also, I heard that theres someone called Lin Xiao whos heading over with Claire to rescue them. Hmph, probably just some overconfident brat, I need not pay any mind.

Sigh, he should have worried, if he prepared for me ahead of time, then all the following wouldnt have happened.

Tsk its because you always act lazy and everyone else thinks youre an idiot, so of course he wouldnt worry about you.

Oh? Then does that mean if I keep doing that, then none of my enemies will worry about me!

Enough pervert, stop trying to find excuses for your laziness, and continue reading!

Elena rolled her eyes and continued flipping ahead.

Fist of severance, day 301.

Hahaha, Im about to devour half of Gotham Kingdom! The foolish people still think its a plague, yet they dont know that Titan is about to be born!

Ignoring the plague for now Elena, whats Titan?

Lin Xiao suddenly felt the surrounding temperature drop as he read those strange characters written in an ancient language.
