Mystery: Shadow of Order

v1 Chapter 207: mask

"boom"

Rolls fired a shot and immediately retreated, hiding in the alley.

The bullet deflected into the carriage on the side, and Maric the "Living Corpse" glanced in the direction of the shooting with malicious brown eyes, and saw that the shooter backed away "interestedly", and did not manipulate the ghost to continue the attack.

And one of the two masked men was hit by Maric's "Curse of Rot". Although he could control the flame, it was not the bright fire of the "Sun Priest" that was full of the divine sun breath, and temporarily lost his ability to fight. , and the other was also shocked by Maric's domineering shot, and there was no next move for a long time.

The intelligence officers of Intis no longer continue to shoot, and those who can become intelligence officers are not stupid. A powerful Beyonder like Maric cannot be dealt with by the revolvers in their hands. They all chose to continue to follow secretly, waiting for help.

But Maric's speed was much faster than the previous carriage. Even with Ian on his shoulders, his speed was comparable to that of a steam train at the highest peak, and he disappeared from the eyes of these people with a swish.

Maric was carrying Ian, his hair was completely blown back by the wind, and the expression on his face was a little grim. Although he had just successfully shot the blazing white spear out of the way, the blazing high temperature still hurt him when he touched it.

Although the body of the "living corpse" is as hard as steel, it can block bullets and cannonballs, and it is not afraid of fire, drowning, or various magic. But the flame of the "arsonist" is condensed, and the power is much stronger than the normal flame.

[To tell the truth, recently I have been using Mimi to read and read books to keep up with updates, switch sources, and read aloud tones, which can be used by Android and Apple. 】

If it wasn't for the silent appearance and tough heart that often developed because of the curse of the full moon, and the expression would hardly change after becoming a "living corpse", Maric would never have been able to intimidate these people and the two Beyonders, with Ian leaves.

At first, Maric's idea was that he used the living corpse he controlled to divert those people outside. Leaked, but after being noticed by the two masked people, they could only intimidate them first, and then leave with their own speed advantage.

But at high speed, Maric, who had reached the edge of the bridge area, never imagined that behind him, a person had already followed him.

Two streets behind him, Rawls was panting heavily, holding the streetlight with one hand. In terms of speed, he couldn't match Maric at all, but he used a bullet to establish a connection with Ian before. This connection Let him lock Ian unilaterally, but the premise is that the straight line cannot be too far away.

According to Maric's running speed, Rawls can be thrown away within a few minutes, but he can't keep moving forward at such a fast speed all the time. Their purpose is to hide themselves rather than expose themselves. Maric's speed will definitely slow down, and he will quietly hide in the crowd, otherwise the Beyonders of the three major churches will definitely be able to target them.

The speed finally slowed down, but how did Ian get in touch with Maric and the others? At this time, Maric and Sharon should still let an old man be the contact? Ian's mission? What does he get paid for?

Rawls could easily recognize that it was Maric who took Ian away, an Extraordinary active in the bridge area, and the ability of "living corpses" was more obvious. Ian and Maric's contact old man knew each other.

After resting for a while, Rawls frowned and closed his eyes. He sensed that Ian and the others had turned back to the bridge area again. Maric and the others were going to play in the dark, but with Rosago present, this move might not work. success.

He didn't approach Maric and Ian rashly. He didn't know if Sharon followed Maric in secret. She was the "Wraith" of Sequence 5 and could hide in the mirror, making it difficult to be discovered.

It's still a long time before the "connection" disappears. Rawls doesn't need to worry too much, and he has to contact Alysia before here. Together, maybe he needs to rob someone.

Rawls had prepared the materials before he came out, and he could summon Alysia's messenger at any time, and Alysia, who held the "Free Walker", would arrive very quickly.

On the street, a man wearing a black shirt and a trench coat walked out of a ready-to-wear store. Behind him was a boy dressed in a similar fashion but much younger. The boy was carrying a paper bag with clothes and a circle in it. top hat.

The boy looked at the people around him, quickly stuffed the hat into the paper bag, followed up with the man in front, and asked in a low voice:

"Mr. Maric, where are we going now?"

According to Caspars' commission, Maric will send Ian out of the bridge area, to the dock area, and find a boat at will to reach the port of Pritz, where it is safe. But now, obviously out of the bridge area, Maric took Ian back again.

Maric turned back, the malicious eyes on his pale face staring at Ian. In a clear tone:

"I will complete Caspars' commission. Before that, don't ask any questions."

Ian nodded cowardly, he understood that Maric had no ill will towards him, otherwise he would have given up on him long ago.

Seeing those red eyes, Maric still explained:

"A lot of people just saw that we were heading towards the quayside, and there must be someone blocking it now."

Ian nodded again, followed by Maric and said no more.

In fact, there is another point that Maric didn't say. He doesn't know who Ian offended, but those people's actions are very similar to those trained in a large organization, and just a simple search can send two people. A Sequence 7 Beyonder, this made him really have no confidence to take Ian away from Backlund alone.

In the hotel not far from Maric and the others, after confirming that they were not moving, Rawls began to prepare to summon Alysia's messenger.

He simply used his spirituality to seal the room, took out the materials he carried on the table, and placed a candle in front of him. Rawls rubbed the candle with his spirituality, and the candle immediately ignited an orange flame.

The black rot flower powder that had been prepared before was lightly sprinkled on the candle, and the smell of formalin came out, but it was blocked by spirituality and did not spread to the outside. Followed by "Full Moon Essential Oil", in the sound of Zizizi, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, and there were invisible and subtle feelings surging.

Rawls took a step back and whispered in ancient Hermes:

"I"

Then, he switched to Hermes:

"I call in my name;"

"Invisible creatures roaming in the upper realm, unconstrained and free, and belong to the messenger of Alysia Tamara."

woo

The sound of the wind stirred up the sound of crying, and the dim candlelight was instantly dyed with a faint blue color.

Under the faint blue candlelight, almost transparent ripples rippling, a translucent creature with three wings and a human-headed fish body. Half of its face is blank, and its facial features are crowded on the other half of its face.

Isn't this guy the messenger of those members of the Spiritual Religion? How did you become Alicia's messenger? Can messengers also get a second job? Isn't it unique to so-and-so?

Rawls recognized this creature at a glance. After he went to Zeriel's house, he accidentally discovered this spirit world creature, and followed it to the place where the members of the Spiritual Religion were stationed.

Rawls, who couldn't figure out what the reason was, didn't ask this strange spirit creature, and handed it the written letter directly.

This human-headed, fish-tailed, and snake-tailed spirit creature has no hands, only three asymmetrical wings. Its manta ray-like body suddenly opened a huge hole, and invisible suction poured out from it, pulling Rawls into his hands. The stationery was sucked in, and the huge opening was closed.

Three asymmetrically distributed wings flapped gently, and the huge body gradually disappeared into the air.

Rawls shook his head. Sure enough, these spirit world creatures are the most peculiar, and no one can understand their body structure.

When Rawls blew out the candle and returned the table, less than a minute after he sat down, Alysia was outlined in the room.

It came too fast!

Rawls stood up and looked at the expressionless Alysia. He neither asked about the messenger nor why she came so quickly, but told it directly.

Alicia closed her eyes and temporarily classified the neighborhood as her "jurisdiction". After reaching Sequence 5, she could do this, but the size of the temporary "jurisdiction" was still related to whether she was familiar with the area.

And when a demigod is in a completely unfamiliar area, Yalysia can always classify the surrounding 500 meters as her "jurisdiction" and sense all the Beyonders in the "jurisdiction".

"He has not only a Sequence 6 'living corpse', but also a Sequence 5 'wraith'." Alysia opened her eyes and frowned slightly, "The Secret Puppet Master of the Intis Embassy 'It's here too, and there are several Beyonders of the 'Communicator' pathway nearby."

"That should be the 'Heart of Machinery'. The previous explosion gave them enough time to react."

Rawls walked to the side of the room, opened the window and looked out. The traffic outside was still large. This is the junction of the bridge area and the dock area. The "Heart of Machinery" must be concerned about ordinary people, so it only needs to consider Just go to the Rosago side.

"I'll divert that 'Master Puppet' and his subordinates first." Yalysia also knows that Rosago is the most unstable party, and only by diverting them can he do better.

"What about Ian?" That was Rawls' only goal, and the "connection" obtained through 'bribery' was running out. Once the target was lost, it would be difficult to find it later.

"I can tag them."

"How long?" Rawls' eyes lit up, he didn't have much time to linger, and he had to meet Mr. Azik at seven o'clock tonight.

"I haven't tried it, and there will be no problem within a week." Alysia shook her head. This was the first time she came out, and many abilities were displayed for the first time in the outside world.

"Okay, then after you lure Rosago away, go directly to Green Park in the West End. I'll wait for you there. Ian's time can be delayed for a day."

"Okay." Alicia nodded.

Outside Green Cemetery, in a secluded wood.

A figure wandered quietly in the woods. He was wearing a silk top hat and a black dress. He had a medium build, bronze complexion, vicissitudes of eyes, soft facial features, and a small black mole under his right ear.

Azik's expression was calm, but his moving footsteps exposed his heart. He was a little scared and also looking forward to it. What he was looking forward to was that his memory would have more hope of recovering, and what he was afraid of was the mask in the hands of the person who came Not about him.

It has been a while since he came to Backlund, but he has not found any clues related to his memory. Even if he returned to the house where he woke up again, Klein's letter told him yesterday that Beckland One of De's friends had a mask that was found in the tomb of the royal family of the Eggers of the Balam Empire in the Fourth Age.

Although there are many loopholes in the letter, for example, MI9 may be behind this friend, he may be tested, and a certain important person may be mentioned...

But Azik didn't have any doubts, and immediately followed the connection method in Klein's letter to find the "Backlund Morning News" to publish the advertisement of the rental house, UU read the book www.uukanshu.com and posted the information about the house after he woke up. wrote it up. He didn't care about Klein's secrets and was willing to help him hide them, just like Klein didn't report him to the church.

Azik took out his pocket watch and saw that it was about to reach seven o'clock. He stretched out his hand and pressed it on his face. A transparent mask appeared on his face, but the mask reflected the gruesome faces of ghosts and ghosts. , covering his face.

Soon, a closed illusory gate with a mysterious symbol on it appeared above an open space outside the woods. As the gate opened, two figures walked out of it.

A man and a woman, both wearing masks, stepped on the void, and walked down step by step as if there were invisible steps in front of them.

Azik sighed behind the mask, and appeared in front of the two in a flash.

Rawls looked at the transparent mask that reflected countless ghostly faces. With a glance, he saw a small black mole under the right ear of the person who came. Knowing that the person opposite was Mr. Azik, he said:

"I'm here to rent. Are you the contact Geoffrey Lister?"

"Yes." Azik nodded, not looking at Rawls who was questioning, but kept staring at Alysia.

Under the mask, Rawls frowned, took out a stone skeleton mask from his arms and put it on his left hand. The mask was lifted up by an invisible force and flew towards Mr. Azik.

Azik looked at the flying mask, shook his head and said:

"This is not the mask I want, the mask I want is on her."

Azik pointed his finger at Alysia, who was wearing a mask while standing beside Rawls without speaking.

Rawls stared at Mr. Ards, knowing that things were a little difficult to resolve today.
