v2 Chapter 18: Hugh's mission goals

Through the advanced "information extraction" ability of "breath extraction", Abner easily sketched out the appearance of a layman in his mind.

A white shirt with a large lace woven decoration spreading down the neckline, a blue vest over it, and dark trousers with the coat...

A wide belt is tied around the waist, with pockets, daggers and other items pinned on it.

"This is obviously a attire that is convenient for combat... If it weren't for Hugh, this time, this place, this kind of attire, if someone else replaced it, I would have come to assassinate me..."

After complaining in his heart, Abner opened the door in disappointment and welcomed Xio in.

Xio entered the room, took a few glances, and found that Abner, who had obviously taken a bath, did not change into pajamas, but was wearing a long robe, so he said with a smile:

"It seems like what I guessed... You plan to take advantage of the night to complete Mr. World's mission."

Klein entrusted Abner to go to a professor at Ston University to exchange for Roselle's real manuscript. Abner did not hide it from Hugh, and had talked to her before the banquet.

"You dress like this... do you want to go with me?" Hugh's meaning was too obvious, and Abner guessed her plan without using "prophecy".

"That's right... There is a mission that needs to go to East Chester..." Xio nodded slightly, then looked at Abner, and continued in an inexplicable tone, "In addition, I want to take the opportunity to see my mother. And my younger brother... If you take the train, I'm afraid there won't be enough time."

"There's no problem..." Abner subconsciously observed Xiaxiu's "Tributary of Destiny" while smiling and nodding. As a result, his expression suddenly changed and he discovered some problems.

His relationship with Xio is close enough and he knows enough about him... Under such circumstances, the "trajectory of destiny" with the greatest probability of Xio within a day or two should be relatively clear...

But in the "observation" just now, Abner got very vague results, especially when it comes to her mission goals, there is still great danger.

This danger is in several "tributaries" with slightly less probability, and even reaches the point of threatening her life.

While his thoughts were changing, Abner asked calmly on the surface so as not to interfere with the "River of Destiny":

"What mission did you take?"

Since Abner acted like he was asking casually, Xio didn't care, he organized some language and replied:

"Remember the theft of the Intis Gustavian Seal of the Intis that I mentioned earlier during the exhibition?

"Although the seal has been recovered, the thief never caught it...

"The case came to a standstill due to lack of clues... until yesterday there was an unexpected clue, when an eyewitness saw the thief board the train to East Chester."

It was the case that Huo suddenly took over on the night that I met His Highness Vera... That thief should not be easy, after all, even the "secret master" Stewart of the Church of the Storm did not "backtrack" his information, at least in the middle sequence. , or hold a magical item of this tier.

With this in mind, Abner asked casually: "You can show me the photo or portrait, maybe I can help find him."

Hearing this, Xio shook his head and said, "There are no photos and no portraits... The witness actually just thought that the back of the person who got on the train was very similar to the suspect he had seen in the rental house...

"So, at the most, I use 'ability' to check suspicious people at the station, and there is a high probability that there will be no results... After all, who knows whether that person is a thief, and even if it is, who can be sure that he will not get off the bus halfway?

"Speaking of which, I'd like to take your 'hitchhiker' to East Chester, mostly to see my family."

In this case, even if Xio has the ability to "discipline knights" and has a very strong perception, it is unlikely to detect the thief...

So, where does Hugh's danger come from?

Abner was puzzled, and quickly decided to secretly follow Hugh's actions the whole way tomorrow and protect him.

——Although according to the observed "fate", the chance of her dying from this is very small...

At this time, Xio looked at the hands of the wall clock and asked, "When are we going?"

Abner came back to his senses after hearing the words, and responded with a smile:

"It's just ten o'clock. Professor Michelle of Stonn University may not have a rest. It's not good to go now... or wait until the middle of the night to act."

Having said this, he paused, and then said meaningfully, "We can rest for a while, there is still plenty of time..."

...

Tingen, in the first-class carriage of a steam train that was parked on the platform, ready to leave for East Chester tomorrow morning.

Ince Zangwill woke up from his deep sleep, and his first reaction was to confirm his own condition.

This is what he does every time he wakes up, because he has no way of knowing what story and what kind of accident the Sealed Artifact "0-08" will weave after he falls asleep.

After confirming that he was not injured, Ince Zangwill put on his shiny leather boots and stood up.

Unexpectedly, he saw "0-08" quietly placed on the small table in the carriage, like a common and common quill.

However, before Ince Zangwill fell asleep, it was obviously locked in a metal box with layers of symbols and magic signs!

Moreover, he did not remember that he took the train, he clearly boarded a passenger ship!

Ince Zangwill walked over solemnly, held "0-08" in one hand, and opened the notebook next to him with the other, and found that there was nearly a page of text there:

"Ince Zangwill still didn't remember what he had done before, but he was keenly aware of some problems.

"He looked into the mirror and found that there was an unfamiliar feeling in himself, as if another Ince Zangwill was born in his body, and it was growing stronger day by day.

"This feeling has been around since he was inexplicably hunted down by MI9 and the Church of the Storm a month ago...

"Although he found out that it was because he stole the seal of the Gustav dynasty...but he didn't know what he did with that seal.

"Just yesterday, a strange powerhouse locked Ince Zangwill and found the cruise ship Ince boarded...

"But the alert Ince suddenly turned back, leaving the strong man in the air."

After reading this description, Ince Zangwill took a deep breath, took out a mirror from his arms and looked over, only to see that he was still blind in one eye, and his classical sculpture-like face had no wrinkles, but his At the corner of his mouth, there was a trace of sadness and resentment, which contrasted sharply with the dignified gaze.

"It's getting more and more serious... This is a sign that the underworld in my body is expanding...

"It seems that there is really a powerful undead in my body!"

Thinking of this, Inz Zangwill only felt that his face was a little blue, the lower part of his eyes was dark, and with the smile that he did not know why, the overall appearance was very gloomy, ruthless and strange.

He thought about it for a while and prepared to summon a powerful undead to find out the details of the soul in his body. If possible, it is best to establish communication with the other party...

If handled properly ~lightnovelpub.net~ may be able to get a "contract" of a powerful spirit!

——Although he has switched from the "Death" pathway to the "Night" pathway and became a "Night Watchman", Ince Zangwill has not lost his previous extraordinary abilities, and is still a powerful psychic. Instructor in the spiritual realm.

But just when Ince wanted to make a move, out of the corner of his eyes he caught the last paragraph on the notebook:

"Ince Zangwill tried to use a powerful spirit to drive away the unknown soul within his body, but sadly found that it didn't work... And the Wadeson Soren inside him was also mocking his self-control!

"Ince is very worried about this. He doesn't know what he was involved in."

"Sauron...?!" Ince Zangwill narrowed his eyes and his expression became more and more solemn. After a long while, he tried to summon a powerful spirit, but as written by a quill pen, he did not get any answer worthy of surprise. .

"Wedson Sauron... Who is this person? What does he have to do with the seal made by Roselle?!"
