Chapter 321: Past

Holm took the three letters that Joshua gave him and read them repeatedly. Joshua didn't bother him anymore, and after Holm acquiesced, he walked directly to the sleeping baby girl in the room.

"You won't take her?"

Ciri saw a bulge on the baby girl's forehead, which was not a human feature.

"It sounds wonderful to have a plan, but the truth is I'm not ready to raise the next generation."

Joshua stretched out his fingers to touch the sleeping baby, but he gave up after thinking for a while.

Ciri is a human being, so he can't feel the difference between this baby girl and the Chaos Demon, but the blood flowing in Joshua's body reminds Joshua that the sleeping baby in front of him is not a real Chaos Demon...

She is something similar to the Chaos Demon, but the magic power on her body is not as gray as the Chaos Demon.

The color of the magic power in this young creature was close to blue. When Joshua was watching her, her hand moved slightly.

"Her arm seems to be engraved with... a magical inscription?" Ciri instantly saw the complex emblem on the baby girl's arm, which was entrenched on the arm like a tattoo.

"Is this the magic inscription of that system?"

Joshua tried to identify the meaning of the magic inscription on the baby girl's hand, but judging from Joshua's current knowledge of magic, these inscriptions were completely chaotic graffiti.

"I... don't know. I can recognize the inscription system of the God of Flowing Water and Healing, and the God of Thunder. I can also understand some of the systems of Burning Flame and Holy Light, but the above inscription system..." Ciri searched carefully in his memory for a moment, and finally could only shake his head feebly.

This kind of academic problem is really difficult for Xili, a practical spellcaster.

"It seems that after a while, we can only ask the person in gray to come and identify it."

Joshua didn't think that a baby girl who was randomly abandoned on the street would have such...complicated inscriptions and emblems on her body. Her birth was not simple.

"Do you want to ask him?" Ciri pointed to Holm who was sitting there, staring nervously at Joshua's every move.

"It's not necessary. The information collected by the dark elf Thousand Faces may know more than her adoptive father."

Joshua took out a small bag of gold coins from his clothes and threw it directly to Holm. Holm stretched out his hand and used the bag of gold coins firmly. He has been wandering around the bottom of Squirrel Street all year round. It is not enough just to have the ability to collect information. of.

Home also seemed to be a good thief.

"There are twelve gold coins in it. Use these money to heal your injuries, and...you don't want this child to be malnourished, do you?" Qiao Xiu pointed to the sleeping baby girl in the swaddle.

Home held the money bag in one hand and the three pieces of letter paper in the other. The words of thanks that he wanted to say were interrupted by a gesture from Joshua.

"Looking forward to your performance tomorrow."

After leaving these words, Joshua led Ciri to open the door and left the tavern.

It was already late at night when Qiao Xiu came outside Squirrel Street, a crow landed on the roof of the tavern and looked at Qiao Xiu with its head tilted.

"Qianmian... Who did you ask her to come over to spy on?"

Ciri immediately noticed the crow on the roof of the tavern.

Most of the birds and birds in Nolan are owls, and it is almost impossible to see a wild crow. Therefore, any crow seen in any corner of Nolan is definitely the incarnation of a dark elf.

Joshua made a hissing gesture to Ciri, and then directly dragged Ciri to a shop opposite the tavern.

This store belongs to the Black Pigeon, and their leader, the Dark Elf, has already greeted them in advance. Joshua and Ciri arrived at the second floor of the store without hindrance, where Joshua could clearly see the tavern and the tavern alley on the opposite side. in the scenery.

Joshua and Shirley didn't have to wait long before a goblin appeared in the alley next to the tavern.

"That's the goblin I beat away." Ciri recognized the sneaky goblin, but this time Joshua's target wasn't the goblin. Behind the goblin was a man in a white robe. under the figure.

Under the robe is an armor similar to a knight's helmet, directly covering his appearance...

"He is the employer of the goblin... The goblin said that the target the other party is looking for is here."

In the alley, the goblin was dancing and talking to the figure, and Joshua relayed it to Ciri one by one.

"Thousand Faces of the Dark Elf told you?" Shirley glanced at the crow standing on the tavern, it was using its claws to repeatedly click in mid-air.

Although Ciri hated to admit it, the crow was typing with its claws, and sometimes with its beak.

It seems that in order to be a qualified spy, the dark elf practiced hard on how to send text messages in the form of a crow.

"Yeah." Joshua nodded and continued to watch the movement on the other side of the tavern.

But when Joshua was talking with Shirley, the other party seemed to notice something, and immediately raised his head to look at the second floor of the shop across the street.

Joshua's eyes met the guy covered in robes, and a strange feeling rose in Joshua's heart.

This is the same feeling as "Stand-In Messenger will attract each other". Joshua is sure that this guy must have some connection with the Chaos Demon Clan, but it feels like a human being.

And the moment the other party found Qiao Xiu, he made the decision to run away almost instantly.

‘Qianmian, stop him! '

With the order from Qiao Xiu in the text message, the crow that was originally standing on the roof instantly changed back to the appearance of a dark elf.

The longbow appeared in the dark elf's hand, and three arrows shot out in just one second, hitting the ground under the opponent's feet!

His steps stopped because of this, and just as the dark elf was about to say something like 'stop and don't move', a torrent of magic power swept the entire alley.

The dark elf's sight was also blocked because of this, but she still braved the torrent of magic power to catch up with the figure who fled to the depths of the alley.

Qiao Xiu saw that the dark elf and the target had all disappeared from sight, and immediately opened the window and jumped off the stairs to catch up.

"Judging from the torrent of magic power released by that guy, it's not an ordinary spellcaster." Shirley followed closely behind Joshua with his staff in his arms.

As soon as Qiao Xiu ran into the alley of the tavern, he saw the dark elf standing alone at the end of the alley... At this time, the ground at the end of the alley had been completely... destroyed.

The ground is like a piece of cake being cut by a heated knife, leaving only a huge hole, and the edges of the hole are terribly neat.

"Sorry...Your Highness Joshua." The dark elf leaned against the edge of the wall, her calf was stained with scarlet blood.

"Did he escape?"

Qiao Xiu came to the end of the alley slowly, and glanced at the divided ground, which was connected to Nolan's sewer.

The sewer is connected to the mine dug by the dwarves. That guy ran into Nolan's underground. Even if someone is sent to track him now, he will return in vain.

"Are your injuries all right?" Joshua came to the Dark Elf's side. The injury on her leg seemed to be torn apart by something.

"This kind of injury can be easily recovered with the power of the judge."

Although the dark elves regard the executioners of the Inquisition as their enemies in this life, she uses the same power as the Inquisitors, that is... gray mist.

In ordinary life, the dark elves hide very well, and even the black wood elves have not discovered the truth of the magic power in the dark elves.

"Your Highness Qiao Xiu, that guy... can break the magic power on my body." When the dark elf repaired his body with gray mist, he said something that surprised Qiao Xiu.

"Break the gray fog?" Qiao Xiu was slightly taken aback. During this period, the dark elf directly handed Qiao Xiu a rucksack with a few arrows stuck in the strap of the rucksack.

"This is something he 'left behind'... and, I saw some strange inscription marks on his hands." The dark elf said.

"..."

Joshua didn't answer the dark elf again, because Joshua's attention had already been attracted by the things in his backpack.

It was a palm-sized... stone slab.

When Qiao Xiu touched this 'stone slab', the lines engraved on the surface of the slate suddenly glowed light blue.

"Magic Mechanism?" Ciri leaned closer, staring at the slate with complicated inscriptions engraved on the back and strange images reflected on the front.

"I'm not too sure, but I'll find out if I take it home and study it." Qiao Xiu said.
