The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 526: uninvited guest

Evan Burns raised his head from the scroll and looked out the window suspiciously...

The speed of darkness was eerily fast.

The Eye of Oblivion quickly slashed the palm of his left hand with a ritual knife, and red blood dripped on the floor of the room.

The wooden floor was like a sponge, quickly absorbing Evan's blood.

The rune composed of bloodstains rose all the way, activating the pocket watch of the mysterious heritage "Crow's Nest" embedded somewhere in the house——

This mysterious heritage that I originally carried with me, Ivan has used it as one of the protective hubs of the sanctuary.

His right hand turned up, a pure white rune lit up in the palm of his hand, and the "pigeon cage" was also activated.

Outside the house, flocks of ravens and doves took off and flew around the house, and the chirping and noise were like raindrops in an instant.

Ivan closed his eyes, and above the house, a dark thunder-colored eye of secret art appeared, and there was thunder throbbing in it...

Activating the shelter mechanism, the Eye of Oblivion took less than three seconds.

However, when the Cang Lei Eyes opened, his heart trembled a little because he saw the outdoors—

The thick black ball screen completely enveloped his cabin.

"Who is it?" Feeling the unfathomable pressure, Evan's heart turned quickly, thinking of many possibilities.

It is possible to reluctantly guard against the King class by circling the bird flock and the Eye of Canglei, but facing an enemy of this class...

Before the flash thought was over, he saw that the inside of the black ball was like a wave, and it devoured his flock of birds in an instant.

Like the viscous black oil at sea came to life and preyed on the flying seabirds.

The original loud chirping sound became quiet after whimpering.

Cold sweat soaked through his back in an instant, and Evan watched the black ball's smoky texture shrinking and tightening. He didn't know where the enemy's body was. Cang Lei's eyes radiated thunder in vain, just like throwing stones into the lake. Apart from a little turbulence, there is no effect.

The black dome pressed down, engulfing the Eye of Mystery. Inside the house, Evan squatted on the ground covering his left eye that was emitting black smoke.

He felt a clear breath, and suddenly raised his head in sweat, looking in the direction of the gate.

The black wind whistled, directly knocking open his door.

In the depths of the thick black, Evan saw a pure white space, and in the pure white space, a thin figure walked slowly.

"Who are you..." Ivan's spiritual power was almost completely destroyed by the opponent.

"Who are you!" The Eye of Oblivion roared loudly, obviously not planning to just let it go. He got up in anger and slammed the bases of his thumbs together.

A pair of palms turned towards each other like giant birds flying with wings.

Immediately, there were distant voices of singing and prayers in a language as ancient as heaven and earth.

The shadow of a shaman with antlers jumping on a tambourine painted with a thunderbird totem in the bonfire appeared.

Ivan's palm lit up, as if it had become a passage to the world of thunder light. A clear eagle chirped, and the birds of prey that bloomed with thunder gushed out from his palm, scorched everything along the way, and blasted directly to the strange creature in the thick black. silhouette.

The thunderbird passed through the gate and disappeared into another world. When the eagle chirped again, it seemed to have swooped into the valley, becoming distant and ethereal.

Evan took a decisive blow, and seemed to fly into an unfathomable world, never looking back.

The figure was leaning on a cane in one hand and the other behind his back.

He raised a hand and held it forward.

A thick black cloud-like object rushed in from the opening of the window like a flood of floodgates, enveloping Evan Burns, and then took him away like a low tide.

Then, the black cloud suddenly dissipated, and everything ended in an instant like a dream.

The difference is that Ivan's house has left traces of anxiety, and the owner of the house has disappeared.

The three of them, Sean, who witnessed the video recording, showed varying degrees of surprise on their faces.

Moonlight was stunned for a long time, then said, "Ivan was taken away?"

Sean didn't answer, he just raised a hand and motioned to look at it - the image is not over yet.

Just about a minute after the darkness dissipated, they saw that their familiar companion had come back.

However, the temperament of Evan, who has returned at this moment, has completely changed.

He was still wearing a gray-blue robe and a mask with lightning flashes, but he was completely like a walking corpse.

Ivan stumbled into the house, used secret techniques to restore all traces of the battle of disparity in strength, and then sat down at the table, and began to turn the scroll of "Thunderbird Myth".

After a while, a thunderbolt rose from the scroll and slashed his face.

The Eye of Oblivion mask flew backwards and shattered to the ground.

Evan also collapsed on the chair, no more sound...

Then, the video ended.

Sean looked at Evan, who had just died, and gradually disappeared on the chair.

They stood silently for a long time, and only came back to their senses after a long time.

Moonlight said incredulously: "That person kidnapped Evan and then controlled him, making him look like he died from studying?"

Sean lowered his head.

The death of his ruminant partner made him very uncomfortable, and even Olivia felt a heavy weight in her chest...

·

After checking Ivan's house again, Sean and his party were not finding any more information about the attacker.

They have already walked out of the depressed wooden house and returned to the outside again.

Without getting close to the big lake again, they stopped at the firewood chopping area that was obviously Ivan, standing in the shade, looking at the lake that was illuminated by the afternoon sun from a distance.

The moonlight in his heart could tell that Sean was in a very bad mood. With a gloomy face, he said:

"...At least we already know that Evan's death was not an accident."

Moonlight knew Sean's mood well.

Evan Burns was murdered.

This is enough to make people angry.

They didn't even intend to consider the fact that the other party was obviously another Ace.

Sean hadn't felt this way for a long time, a burning irritability.

Whenever this happens, he wants to have a cigarette, even though he has quit for many years.

This feeling is a bit familiar. When I was chasing Aaliyah, whenever her pursuit failed, I would have this feeling.

He took a long time to calm down, and looked at the moonlight with some complicated eyes.

Moonlight shook his head, knowing what Sean was going to say: "Don't talk about it. We have to find a way to kill that son of a bitch."

Without further ado, the group rode on horses and left the wooden house.

Returning to Rongyeer again, it was almost dusk. Sean and the others didn't have time to go to dinner, so they went straight back to the branch office and found the martyrs of truth.

On the way back, the three of Sean had already discussed it clearly: in order to ensure that the secret would not be leaked, they would not tell anyone that Evan was murdered, but would only continue with the statement that "suspect is not accidental". Investigate in depth...

During this process, if anyone obstructs it, Sean will not be polite.

When Sean expressed his doubts, the martyrs obviously did not have any different opinions - it is never a bad thing that someone is willing to investigate further. After all, there is still a missing Queen class. God knows if there is a deep pool behind it~lightnovelpub.net~ Although Sean and his party already know the truth about Ivan's death, their investigation is not smooth.

There is no clue as to the murder scene or the identity of the attacker.

They can only diffuse their thoughts and investigate from all kinds of strange places.

Among them was Jonyère's strange midnight ritual.

Only when they figure out what Sean and Moonlight saw that night can they continue to stay in this town with peace of mind.

What's more, from those seemingly unrelated angles, it may be possible to connect with Evan's death...

However, before coming back, Sean and Moonlight had different opinions on whether to ask the martyrs directly about what happened that night.

Moonlight believes that the martyrs who are natives may have something to hide. They may even be in danger because of it.

And after considering Moonlight's statement, Sean decided to get straight to the point and ask—

If he encounters concealment or resistance, he doesn't mind using some thunderous means.

After all, it is the duty of the local official explorers to explain the behavior of the people in their jurisdiction.

Now he doesn't have much patience and grace.
