The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 271: return

When he first entered the living area with crowds, Sean was still a little nervous—

The strange tracking that Rabilins couldn't get rid of at the time left some shadows on Sean.

He was very worried that a golden skull suddenly appeared in the air...

However, Sean noticed that the vigilance on the streets of Ocean City had obviously been lifted.

Not only can you not see Daedalus personnel wearing labyrinth badges, but there are very few sheriffs patrolling the streets!

In this case, the forgetting characteristics of Sean and Olivia made them walk through the city like a shadow that was forgotten by passersby in a blink of an eye.

According to Moonlight's meaning, Sean took Olivia to the alley next to the Shipwreck Hotel.

In the distance, I saw the moonlight pacing anxiously, and my stand-in parrot standing a little numbly.

Seeing Sean and Olivia approaching, Moonlight couldn't contain his excitement. He lowered his voice and shouted, "Sean! Olivia!"

He almost ran to meet him.

The pianist's eyes were slightly red, and he didn't have the usual teasing look on his face, and he hugged Sean tightly without any hesitation: "God, my god!

"Without your news, we all thought you were dead!"

Moonlight looked at Sean and Olivia, as if checking whether they were real.

"What happened? How did you guys disappear for so long?" Moonlight asked in a low voice very fast.

Sean walked up to his stand-in parrot, canceled the other party's mimicry, and walked out of the alley on Moonlight's shoulder: "Go in and talk about it... What about Evan?"

"We are still worried about the change, so let him wait in the room."

Sean breathed a sigh of relief: "He's fine too - great."

After walking into his room quite calmly, Sean saw Evan Burns.

The light blue eyes still didn't have too many emotional ups and downs, but Sean could feel that the clown hermit was quite happy about his return - he actually stood up and greeted the door...

Closing the door, Ivan's hands flashed with runes, and he glanced at Sean and Olivia.

"Safe." The cautious clown hermit came to a conclusion, turned around and sat back.

……

In any case, Sean still felt that Evan was very happy at the moment.

"What the **** is going on? Sean!" He played "The Curtain", and the moonlight's tone increased significantly.

Sean sat in the chair: "I was exiled to the Eye of Labyrinth Island by Rabilins, but I managed to escape—and brought back a reinforcement."

There was obviously a look of surprise on Moonlight's face, and Ivan also looked at Sean in disbelief.

They had heard from Sean before about Rabilins' intelligence, so they knew exactly what it was like to be exiled to Labyrinth Island.

However, Sean was able to come back with his own strength...

This is somewhat beyond their understanding.

For hundreds of years, no one who was exiled to the Eye of Labyrinth Island could ever return to the world again.

Sean did something that was impossible.

In order to grasp the current situation faster, Sean asked: "What happened after that day? How is the situation now? Where is Alicia?"

Sean asked three questions one after another.

Moonlight sighed softly: "Sean, we all escaped the pursuit of Rabilins and Kilia... However, Alicia was caught."

Alicia got caught? !

Sean suddenly stood up: "What?!"

She is the core of the Wing Slashing Project and the Last Lion Slaughtering Project, and the only one who has mastered the storage location of the "Golden Stone"...

If she gets caught, everything will be over.

Sean is not glad that he did not contact Alicia through the chess piece totem - in that case, his return may be directly exposed to Rabilins.

He just felt cold all over, as if the carpet had been pulled off his feet.

Alicia... how could she be caught by Rabilins?

"So..." Sean lowered his head with a complicated expression, "So the alert in Ocean City has been lowered."

To find the Philosopher's Stone, Rabilins only needs to torture Alicia.

Sean looked around his teammates in the room, feeling a little overwhelmed for a while.

How is Alicia now? What means will Rabilins torture? What information has he learned?

……

Sean had no idea.

After hearing this news, he seemed to have fallen into the darkness and lost his next direction.

"But..." Moonlight continued, "Before being caught by Rabilins, Alicia gave us the last order through the chess piece totem."

Sean suddenly raised his head: "What order?"

"Continue to 'cut wings'."

Continue to chop wings?

Sean frowned.

Of the top three of the Foundation, now there is only "Angel Stalker" Kilia.

Alicia has already been captured by Rabilins, so what's the point of continuing to slash her wings?

……

However, the thoughtful female chess player must have her intentions when she gave such an order when she was caught.

After knowing this information, Sean's impetuous heart gradually calmed down due to the situation.

"Can we contact Wendy?" Sean asked.

Evan nodded: "Okay—she and Wright are hiding now.

"Because they are Alicia's direct subordinates, they are under much more search pressure than us.

"However, Wright's ability is especially suitable for hiding, so they are still safe now."

Sean nodded: "When was the last time to chop wings?"

Moonlight informed Sean about the time and method of discussing with Wendy.

The time is set for tomorrow. After hearing the specific plan, considering that he has Tesler as a strong support, Sean has more plans...

After thinking for a long time, Sean stood up: "I want to contact Wendy."

Daedalus Foundation, inside the Ocean City headquarters building, interrogation room.

Alicia Pompeii was tightly chained to the wall by the bracelets of sophisticated alchemy technology, her hands were a little purple due to ischemia.

Her face was pale, her lips were bloodless, and her breathing was quick and shallow.

Because of the magic technique that tortures her soul, she is already weak at this moment, and her mind is in chaos.

But ~lightnovelpub.net~ Even though she has been arrested for more than 24 hours and has been tortured four times, her soul still hasn't uttered a word...

Has broken the torture record within the Foundation.

Rabilins, standing outside the one-way glass in the interrogation room, with a serious expression, stared at his stubborn daughter with his hands behind his back.

After a while, he murmured, "...like me."

In front of him, the interrogator with disc glasses asked, "Is it time to use the magical technique of searching memory?"

The memory stored in the soul is very clear to human beings.

However, once left protected, they are as fragile as soap bubbles.

Forcibly searching for memory is likely to damage the memory and brain function of the person being tortured.

Labillings Pompeii did not approve its use in the first place.

Looking at the weak appearance of her daughter in the interrogation room, the resolute Rabilins fell silent.

The president, who has always been decisive, didn't speak for a long time.

For a while, the air in the room seemed to freeze.

When everyone could only hear their own breathing, the tall man with frantic beard turned gloomy and walked out of the room: "Let's begin."
