Bizarre Detective Agency

Chapter 1367: Nine. Settle down

  Kraggs Creep chose to obey Lu Li.

   Temporarily obey.

  Lu Li didn't believe that the Creep Monster would become a loyal subordinate, and the Creep Monster didn't believe that Lu Li would give up converting believers either.

   This kind of fear formed an ingenious and fragile balance, so that Lu Li and the creep monster didn't have to worry about attacking each other for the time being.

  At least Lu Li doesn't have to worry.

  Lu Li made the creep monster restrain and cover the manor's body. The creeps faded away, revealing the dilapidated and mottled state of the mansion.

   Entering the wine cellar, the secret passage has long been blocked by mud and rocks. If you want to regain the castle, you can only go to the ground.

  Claire hadn't come back yet, Elena asked Lu Li about the weirdness around the Kraggs Creep Monster.

  Weird doesn't know the truth about the cold lips and teeth, and just wants to get a share of it and clean up the enemies. Elena told Lu Li that the creep monster had mentioned two monsters, they coveted the manor territory, but they couldn't compete with the creep monster and wandered back around.

  They are obviously no stronger than the Kraggs creep monsters, or at least they are powerless against the creep monsters, and Lu Li's dream treats the weirdness under the evil spirits equally.

   But before going to win over the second and third helpers, Lu Li first had to deal with the hidden danger of the creep monsters.

  He doesn't need to worry about the sudden attack of the creep monster, Ophelia is naturally restrained, and only Elena is weak.

  Lu Li took out the contracts he had obtained in batches from Hell, set up the contracts according to the teachings of the idealist, and prepared for the creep monsters to sign them.

  The content is that until Lu Li leaves Midnight City, the creep monsters must obey Lu Li's orders and protect Lu Li. In response, Lu Li cannot harm the creep monsters.

  Lu Li instinctively enslaved the creep monster harshly, what made him not do this was not kindness, but worry that the creep monster would notice.

   Obediently leaving plaque on the parchment contract, the devil's contract that was reached seemed to tell Lu Li that he was too worried.

   But it doesn't matter, the devil trap in the contract is enough to manipulate the creep monster—

  Lu Li cannot harm the creep monster, but he can send it to death.

  Let the creep monster lead the way to where the neighbors are. Not long after, Lu Li, Elena, and Ophelia approached the edge of the creep and saw a field of humus soil along the creep.

   What are planted in the fertile and soft humus soil are not crops, but weird ones that have not died. They are planted in the soil and tended by gardeners of grotesque, ghastly figures with protruding faces.

   Creep's neighbor is visually scarier than it.

The owner of the farmland noticed the arrival of neighbors and outsiders, and the faces on the gardener's evil body squirmed, driving them numbly to collect the dark purple viscous liquid from the "crops" and fill them into the skulls, and come to the edge of the creeper to lift up and share the nectar .

  Surging creeps gathered around Elena, communicating in ways that Lu Li couldn't understand.

  "The creep monster said that the nectar is a trap, and eating the nectar will become the queen's minion."

  After the flower is the owner of this piece of humus, in the depths of the farmland in the distance, the shadow like a low hill is its body.

  Lu Li observed the busy servants in the strange farmland, there were a dozen or more servants here.

  Obviously, the more weirdness there is, the higher the probability of existence of the soul of Night City.

  Whether you eat or touch the nectar, you will be parasitized by the empress, it restrains the creep, and the creep also restrains it, depending on where you fight. Therefore, after the flower, it cannot infect the Kraggs creep monster that occupied the **** wheat field first. …

  Lu Li doesn't need to worry. Because under the evil spirits, all dreamers are treated equally.

  A deep dream enveloped Lu Li, like a hanging black ring, floating towards the "Queen of Flowers" deep in the farmland.

   Vines twine with twisted branches and grow thorny spikes. After flowering, it looked like a big tree made of flesh and blood. The servants poured the nectar collected from the fruit into the holes of the tree of flesh and blood, spewing out dense pollen.

  After the pollen came into contact with the smile in the dream, Lu Li took out the devil's contract, and Eileen negotiated with him: obey or die.

   Not really the latter. If it obeys after flowering, it will sign a contract; if it refuses after flowering, it will be forced to sign a contract.

  The flower queen who signed the contract did not obey like the creep monster, even though it let the flames of **** burn its body, it refused to obey Lu Li.

   "Can the Tree Whisperer make it honest?" Ophelia suggested.

  Lu Li couldn't try it. The Tree Whisperer made too much noise, and the entire Midnight City would see Annie's phantom, and know that Lu Li was coming.

   But you can try lighthouses that haven't been used yet.

  In the depths of the grotesque dreamland, a hazy halo like an oil lamp slowly lights up.

   A reassuring light shines around.

  Eileen and Ophelia grew close to Lu Li, and gradually became peaceful after the flower. And does this mean...the less hostile Kraggs Creep is the soul of Night City?

   While the lighthouse lasted, Lu Li asked Elena to communicate with the flower queen until it no longer resisted, and the warm light guiding the lost existence disappeared.

  Eileen and Ophelia became lost, and raised the twisted branches after the flowers, trying to keep the light from dissipating.

  Anyway, the second weirdo becomes a minion.

"Next."

  Lu Li fell back to the Kraggs creep monster.

   But it seemed that the neighbor sensed the imminent danger. When the creep monster brought Lu Li and the others, the place was already empty.

   "Where did it go?" Ophelia asked.

   Creep monsters spread across this barren land, and the surge spread to the end of the line of sight. It was confirmed that the neighbor had indeed run away.

   "Are there any other neighbors?"

   Elena asked and was denied.

   They returned to the farm the same way, and a young bird with feathers like a white paint flew from Midnight City and coiled around Lu Li's head.

   "Are you hungry?" Ophelia looked at Claire who refused to let go, "I can roast it tender."

   "You don't even let small animals go?"

  Clair, who wandered back, landed on top of Ophelia's head, like a shadow wearing a white hat.

   "Are there still animals in Weird Times?"

  The answer is yes, they just change their appearance... Just like humans adapt to weird times with different people and different species, they can also.

   "How is your progress?"

   "Solved after the flower."

   "After the flower? No accident."

   "Don't expect it." Ophelia and the teasing Claire said, "It pulls the beautiful word of the queen to the worst by itself."

   "You became angry and killed it?"

   "Being taken under by Lu Li." Ophelia explained the details and the role of the lighthouse.

   "Lighthouse? Show me!"

  Under the urging of the curious Clare, Lu Li released the lighthouse again.

  A hazy halo spread.

   "As the sun shines in the Land of Light..."

  Clair was fascinated by it, "You seem to be carrying the land of light with you..."

  Lighthouses are as warm as sunlight, but also as "useless" as sunlight.

  Krell remembered something: "Can you see their mind projections?"

   "They don't have any." Lu Li shook his head, "What's the castle like?"

   "Some strange eerie has taken over the castle..."

   "How weird?"

   Right at this moment, Ophelia and Clare heard Lu Li's stomach grunting at the same time.

"You are hungry?"

"Um."
