Mystery: Start with the Reader

v2 Chapter 488: Follow-up

I**! Seeing the content of "0-08" written on the rock, Ince Zangwill once again couldn't help but explode, and he pushed back the spirit world who had entangled him who had taken refuge in Azik before the war. The creature, struggling to grab the quill, quickly wrote on the rock:

"St. Anthony happened to discover the trail of a demigod by the'thief' who had shamed the Church of the Night and turned the night watcher around in the middle of the journey, so he turned to the investigation... His decision was reasonable."

After writing this sentence, Ince's intact eyes were full of coldness, and he felt that he could not continue this way, otherwise this time it was Saint Anthony. Will he come to the "Goddess Eye" next time?

The "doom" must be solved!

At this moment, he finally made a certain decision and took out a baby's umbilical cord from his tooth seal.

This umbilical cord belongs to the "Heir of Cthulhu", from the baby in the belly of Megoos, from the "True Creator"!

The reason why Ince Zangwill did not use this magical item at the beginning is because it has extremely strong side effects. Once used, he will not only be marked by the "True Creator", but will also be reduced to its original strength within a period of time. Half of the price, the price is very high... and this item can only be used three times normally, every opportunity is very precious.

As a demigod in the "Doom" realm, Ince feels that he is capable of resolving the "blessing" from the so-called "Black Emperor" of the so-called rogue "Black Emperor" as long as he is given enough time...Unfortunately, the enemy is coming, With bad luck again and again, "0-08" is still taking the opportunity to "make troubles", not giving him a chance to solve the problem at all, and even driving him to a desperate situation!

Therefore, he had to use the "killer feature" of "Heir of Cthulhu Umbilical Cord".

That mighty spirit creature originally wanted to continue to attack Ince, but when it saw the umbilical cord in the other's hand, it hesitated, and a humane expression of fear appeared on its face.

And "0-08", who has been "making troubles", now quieted down, as if he was a quill pen that wouldn't move at all.

Seeing that the "umbilical cord" frightened the spirit creature, and "0-08" was also honest, Ince Zangwill finally breathed a sigh of relief and determined that his "doom" should have been suppressed by the breath of the evil spirit. Then he helped Test to block Mr. Azik's attack, and won the time for the military demigod to send animals and start the "transport".

Teste really didn't want to continue the fight at this time. Originally, the fight was inexplicable and the opponent was too strong. So after getting a breathing opportunity, he immediately opened the "gateway" and then pulled Ince. Zangwill went straight back to a secret stronghold near Backlund in MI9.

Before leaving, Ince Zangwill did not forget to let a spirit sealed by himself destroy itself, blowing up the rock full of words.

Mr. Azik looked at the place where the two of them disappeared, and did not chase rashly. First, he waved his hand to the apologetic spirit creature, indicating that it does not care, then covered his forehead and muttered to himself in an inaudible voice: " The fighting style of that golden mask man is very familiar... I seem to have fought with many such people...

"Trensorst... Tamara... Augustus... Castilla..."

...

In a sewer in the North District, the Archbishop of St. Anthony, who was chasing the target, suddenly frowned, thinking suspiciously:

"Why do I have to track down that'thief' demigod? Obviously, whether it's the saint-class battle in the suburbs of the northern district, or the situation in the telegram of the Church of the Mother Goddess, it is more important...

"Could it be that I was also stolen by the demigod of the ‘thief’, which made me forget why I was chasing her?"

He frowned and thought for a while, and finally gave up tracking, returned to the ground, and rushed to the outskirts of the North District.

This made a certain demigod hiding deep in the sewer finally breathe a sigh of relief, but she did not dare to stay where she was. Instead, she followed the pipeline into the safest but also the most dangerous Queens area in Backlund, and sneaked into He found a noble family and found a new "parasitic" target.

She had never chosen a "host" before because of the need to heal her injuries, but her injury just got better. The first time she went out to purchase goods, she happened to meet the archbishop of the Church of the Dark Night, which made her lament that her fortune was too bad, and she also made a decision. Determined to find the "host" as soon as possible.

...

In the basement of the Aurora Club stronghold at No. 6 Rheinst Street.

The Archbishop of the Steam Church, Holramick, has left, and seems to be supporting the "Song of God"...

However, at this time, the Mechanical Heart and the Night Watcher had arrived one after another, and the Extraordinary from the four churches gathered together.

They couldn't help feeling a little afraid and lucky after hearing what Stewart had told.

The latter is afraid because the "Fall of Flesh" ceremony is notorious. If it has not been destroyed, then no one in this block will survive. It will be a tragedy enough for the king and the prime minister to mourn.

Fortunately, it was eventually blocked by someone...Although the person who blocked it seems to be a subordinate of an evil god...

"The Fool"..."Hero"..."Tarot Card"...Are you resurrected by an evil god? As a member of the supporting Night Watcher team, Ms. Dai Li looked at the "Fool" name on the paper in her hand, and meditated in her heart.

She had some speculations about the identity of "Iron Man", so at this time, besides worrying about someone's situation, she wanted to know everything about the evil **** named "The Fool" as much as possible.

She thought for a while, and asked: "In the case of Lanrwuth, the scammer had the'Emperor' and the'Wheel of Destiny' stuck in his head; in the Carpin case, the corpse of the slave merchant There are'Emperor' and'Judgment' on it; and in this incident, beside the destroyed altar are'Emperor' and'Tower'...

"What does this mean? Are there any reasonable guesses?"

"I have a guess." Stewart, who is more familiar with Dai Li, took over the words and told his reasoning, "Well, I guess the'Emperor' should be the symbol of the Rogue'Black Emperor'. He is likely to be in Langer. It appeared in Uth’s case, but it was not discovered by us..."

Having said that, he glanced at the night watchers present, after all, they handled the case.

"When Lanlus died, we were not there at the time." Lorota, who was wearing a black jacket, white shirt, black tights and leather boots of the same color, nodded and said.

Stewart nodded slightly when he heard the words, and continued: "As for the other card that is matched each time, I think there may be two meanings...

"First, it symbolizes what the'Black Emperor' did. The scammer died at the hands of the'Joker'. This may symbolize the mockery from the'Destiny', so the'Wheel of Destiny' was inserted...The slave merchant welcomes The'judgement' came, so the'judgment' was placed... the sinful ritual was destroyed, so the'tower' was placed...

"The second explanation is that the three cards actually symbolize the members of the organization formed by the Fool, but they may only provide help, or they may not be detected, so they did not reveal their whereabouts... , Maybe the code name of'Joker' or'Iron Man' in the Lan Erwuth case is'Wheel of Fortune'."

After listening to his speculation, everyone nodded thoughtfully, feeling very reasonable.

If it is really him, it is unlikely to be the "Wheel of Destiny", but the "Sun" is right... Ms. Dai Li pursed her lips, and then asked: "How did the thief'Black Emperor' destroy the'Flesh and Blood'? Yuan'? If we can know his methods, we might not have to worry about this ritual anymore.

"You know, whether this ritual works depends entirely on whether the ‘true creator’ responds, so even if it’s not difficult to set up, very few members of the Aurora Society can complete it... but every time it is completed, it is a disaster!"

"There were no useful clues left at the scene, and valuable information could not be traced back." Stewart shook his head first, then looked at the deacon of Mechanical Heart Ikonser Bernard, and then asked, "Mechanical Zhixin should have brought '2-111', right?"

Ikanser, who has always been messed up with brown hair, immediately understood what Stewart meant when he heard this. After a little thought, he took out an ancient silver mirror with an ancient pattern.

Just as Dai Li said, everyone in the room wanted to know the method of Rogue "Black Emperor", and Mechanical Heart was no exception.

Seeing this mirror, the Punisher and the Mechanical Heart members took a step back. Only Stewart looked at Ikanser unmovedly and said, "You or me?"

Ikanser glanced at Stewart in surprise, admiring his "courage", but felt that he had "pitted" the other person once, and it was really hard to do it again. Ikanser still said solemnly, "I'll do it."

After speaking, he took the silver mirror with the curious gazes of the night watchers and Haruer in the pitying gazes of the penalty agent and the mechanical heart, stroked the surface with his right hand three times, and took a deep breath to ask. :

"Dear Arrods, my question is, how was this altar destroyed?"

As soon as his voice fell, the surrounding lights suddenly became deep, seeming to be stained with the haze from the rain, and strange water flashes on the surface of the silver mirror, converging a scene:

The ghost wearing black armor and a black crown waved his hand and arranged another ritual on the periphery of the altar. Then he used his body as a sacrifice to pray to an unknown existence... He soon disappeared, but after only a second, black 'S figure reappeared again, and at this moment, the altar of "Fall of Flesh" suddenly shattered.

Then, when the screen turned, the ghost wearing black armor crossed the floor and came to the hole in the roof struck by lightning, and bowed down very gracefully.

Seeing the final freeze frame, Stewart didn't know if it was his own illusion. He always felt that the rogue "Black Emperor" in the painting was more chic and handsome than what he actually saw at the time...

Hmm, maybe because of the composition and angle... Stewart quickly found a reason, so he stopped worrying about this, and instead thought about the rituals used by Rogue in the picture.

After a while, he had some clues and said excitedly: "So...I understand that he used rituals to'distort' the direction of the Abyss of Flesh and lead it to the Fool. Only then successfully ended the ceremony..."

Hearing his explanation, a small number of people's faces appeared in a daze, but most of them were still confused and didn't understand what he was talking about.

But before they can analyze it further, the silver mirror outlines the words that are as red as blood:

"What's the name of the "Fukugan Dog"?"

Huh? "2-111" actually asked a "serious" question? It is in a good mood today~lightnovelpub.net~ or is it "digging a hole" again? A surprised look appeared on Stewart's face, thinking Ikanser was lucky today.

But Ikanser himself doesn't think so...because he doesn't know the answer!

Naturally, his hair stood up stubbornly by the electric power again.

...

Southern Continent, in a valley base near Port Alexandre.

"White Saint" Katerina and her daughter "Lieutenant General" Tracy, are about to sneak into a heavily guarded research institute.

Suddenly, Catalina gave a light "Huh" and stopped, which made Tracy cast her gaze strangely.

"Test isn't there? He didn't personally guard the item...how could it be possible?!

"Did he set off early? Or... this is just a decoy?"
