Chapter 1168

The so-called [Brain Eater], as the name suggests, is a demon that lives by eating brains. They eat brains, hollow out their skulls, live in the brain, can obtain the memory in the brain, and imitate the original body perfectly.

In comparison, the parasitic and latent type of [Brain Fluid Demon] is simply a good baby among the parasitic demons.

There is only one way to discover [Brain Eater], that is, perspective!

By looking through the skull and examining the brain tissue, [Brain Eater] can be discovered.

It sounds simple, but there are very few people who have the ability of perspective.

Moreover, [Brain Eater] will entrench itself after eating the brain, and ordinary perspective alone cannot see it.

In this case, the so-called "one" by the Lord of Montilfarli is probably really just one, and there are countless others that have not been discovered!

…

With demons hiding inside and monsters clustering outside, the Free City is really like a furnace at this time.

If the residents in the city do not know the details, they can still maintain order. Once they know that there may be a monster like the [Brain Eater] among the crowd, it will definitely cause a large-scale panic.

In order to conceal the truth, the Free City cannot even completely close the city.

Until today, only the East Gate has been blocked, and the South Gate, West Gate and North Gate have only set up checkpoints.

But relying solely on those checkpoints, nothing can be found.

In recent days, the senior officials in the city who know the details have all been under extremely heavy pressure. Every day, they feel like they are walking in a quagmire and cannot take a step at all.

"Of course, we are not sitting there waiting to die. Since we found that there was infiltration by the demons, we have begun to secretly look for capable people. Some time ago, we found a magician who mastered the perspective spell. The [Brain Fluid Demon] was discovered with her help."

The Lord of Montilfarli said slowly. "But the power of one person is limited after all. If we only rely on that magician, we can't check the people in the entire city. Moreover, we are the Free City..."

The Free City, since it is named after freedom, people who come here naturally don't like to be bound by others.

The Free City is built on this basis, so naturally it has to bear the consequences of it.

Nowadays, the Free City is a mixed bag, and there are many people with criminal records. I'm afraid they won't honestly accept the investigation.

It is impossible to gather everyone together to accept the investigation one by one, as Dark and Professor Kazel did in the academy.

...

Dake couldn't help asking, "Since these demons are so difficult, how did you prevent and catch them during the war?"

The city lord Montilfarli said, "The mobilization capacity during the war is not comparable to today. And at that time, we still had some experts who could deal with such crises."

She raised her head slightly and looked at Ophelia, saying, "For example, the blood tribe can easily find the [illusion demons] and [amilo insects] hidden in the crowd."

Ophelia was drinking tea and rinsing her mouth, and she just glanced at her when she was told.

The city lord Montilfarli was not an academic, but as a famous hero at the time, the two naturally knew each other.

It's just that the city lord Montilfarli didn't know what happened to Ophelia, and only thought that she disappeared and died in the incident. Now seeing her suddenly appear, he was only surprised.

As for the curiosity caused by this...of course she wouldn't ask on the spot, anyway, she could ask Aurora after the meeting.

She continued, "As for the [Amilo Worm], there is a kind of birdman among the orcs who is very sensitive to the smell of [Amilo Worm], and [Amilo Worm] within a hundred miles cannot escape their capture. Also among the orcs, some birdmen are born with the ability of perspective. There is also a sub-human species that does not use their eyes to see things, but can rely on mental induction to build a visual model in their brains, and can also easily find [Brain Eater]. But now is not a time of war. The Hundred Races Alliance has entered the second half, and there is only a treaty of non-attack. We have tried our best to find a hybrid with that part of the orc bloodline. Now there is some effect, but it is still insufficient."

In short, the Free City has indeed taken a lot of measures.

If we can survive this most difficult period, there will be a period of clearing the crisis and finding stability in the future.

But it is this period that is the most difficult!

Just the day before yesterday, Montilfarli was still secretly thankful for sending Aurora away in time, but she never expected that Aurora would come back a few days later...

Fortunately, she brought the professors of St. Marian College with her!

During the period of rapid development of magic technology, the professors of St. Marian College always came up with some means that they did not have.

...

Professor Sylph said: "In short, we have roughly understood the context of the matter. We will help with this matter. But we have another important task, which requires time to arrange."

Without Mayor Montilfarli's request, Professor Sylph took the initiative to take responsibility.

Mayor Montilfarli was surprised and said: "I have asked someone to sort out the information, and it will be delivered to you at about one o'clock. Next, you will stay in the city lord's mansion for the time being!"

"No problem." Professor Sylph said.

Montilfarli looked at the meat on the plate, glanced at everyone present, and said: "Then... continue to eat?"

...

This lunch lasted until after 1pm, and the information sorted out by Lord Montilfarli was delivered directly to the dining table.

Professor Sylph was very straightforward and distributed the information right at the dining table.

Whether the professors were interested or not, they all picked up the information and read it.

Dark and Aurora got close, reading it carefully and communicating with her.

The information detailed the records of events related to the demons that had occurred since June last year.

It naturally involved a large number of names of people and places.

Lord Montilfarli specially asked Tiger to find some people to answer the professors' questions, and Dark asked Aurora directly, and soon had a clear understanding of the whole situation.

In general, the incident that occurred in the Free City was an expanded version of the [Brain Fluid Demon] incident in the academy.

Relying on [Magic Beast: Goddess of the Heart's Eyes], it is very easy to pull out the demons including [Brain Eater Demon] and [Shapeshifter Demon] from the crowd.

In fact, although the [Brain Eater] is more threatening than the [Brain Fluid Demon], it is not as concealed as the [Brain Eater].

If there is a [Brain Eater] standing in front of him, [Magic Beast: Goddess of the Heart's Eye] can even pick it out with just one glance.

But the current situation is not so simple.

Because Dak and others actually know why these demons that should have been extinct have reappeared.

And since so many special demons have appeared, how could there be no [Brain Fluid Demon]?

"There should be, but it has not been discovered."

Dak is almost certain.

He discussed with Aurora in a low voice, and finally found out with great regret that among the thirteen-member team from the academy, he was the only one who was most suitable to deal with this matter.

It's not that he didn't want to help, but in this way, his eating melons would be tied up by this city!

He thought about it, and did not show this little emotion in front of Aurora, but took the initiative to say: "Don't worry, I'm here."

...

After spending two hours to understand the details, they did not make arrangements directly in this conference hall.

Mayor Montilfarli had left halfway, and the half-blood tiger man Tiger was left behind.

At about three o'clock, Dak and others put away the materials and went to the guest room under Tiger's leadership to rest temporarily.

Then at half past three, they gathered in Professor Sylph's guest room and started an internal meeting.

Professor Sylph opened the barrier and said at the beginning: "Everyone knows the details. The current situation seems stable, but according to my observation, the infiltration of the demons is actually very serious. How to deal with it is urgent. We need to split into two groups, one group will stay here to deal with the demons in the city, and the other group will continue to look for No. 2. Only by finding No. 2 and capturing him can we cure the root cause!"

"I agree."

"I think so too."

"Okay."

...

Professor Sylph said: "Very good, since there are no questions, let's start arranging tasks now."

Chapter 762

At this point, Professor Sylph suddenly changed the subject and said: "Of course, before that, we need to confirm the location of No. 2 first."

In fact, they should have confirmed the location of the Demon King as soon as they entered the city, but they had no chance along the way, so they dragged it until now.

In any case, finding the Demon King and capturing or sealing him is the primary policy to solve the problem.

Don't lose the big picture for the small.

"[Phantom Demon], [Amilo Worm], [Shapeshifter], [Brain Eater]... These demons that should have been extinct have reappeared. There is no doubt that it was done by the Demon King."

"If the Demon King cannot be caught, special demons like these will continue to appear."

"But this also means that the location of No. 2 should be not far from here."

"Witt."

...

Witt Gold walked out with his head held high. He knew that it was time for his human radar to play a role.

But even if he knew the necessity of doing so, he still couldn't adapt. After all, no one wanted to see his body being manipulated like a puppet.

It was just different from the previous times. Now, after learning about the crisis facing the Free City, he felt a strong sense of responsibility.

"Thinking carefully, maybe it's not bad to be a human radar... At least I am still useful, right?"

He thought a little sadly, and felt that his feet became heavier-it was definitely not because of the [Gravity Boots].

As always, the professors quickly spread out into a circle and surrounded him.

Professor Sylph took out the [switch] and pressed the red button on it.

"Beep——"

The next second, Witt felt that the burden on his body disappeared and he became light.

His vision changed and he became a "man in the middle".

And his second consciousness, the devil No. 1, once again occupied his body.

This time, Mr. No. 1 did not turn a blind eye.

It suddenly opened its eyes and turned its eyes to the west like lightning.

The induction between it and No. 2 was clearer than ever before!

So close!

So close!

So close!

Save me!

Save me!

Save me!

...

No. 1 roared in his heart and couldn't wait to send out a distress signal.

It knew very well that the induction between it and No. 2 was two-way.

When it sensed the existence of No. 2 so clearly, No. 2 would also sense its existence so clearly.

As a "comrade with the same fate", the other party who received the distress signal will definitely come to save him, right?

"What did you sense?"

Suddenly, the voice of the terrible half-elf professor drilled into his ears like a shuttle.

Number One's expression suddenly froze, and he stopped asking for help without making a sound.

Then, he turned around tremblingly and met the eyes of [Goddess of the Heart's Eye].

[Magic Beast: Goddess of the Heart's Eye]'s bangs floated, the third eye between her eyebrows quietly opened, and a very obscure smile appeared on her face.

Exposed!

Finished!

The sudden discovery of clear induction made Number One's mind lose, exposing the hidden purpose of "asking for help from comrades".

Of course, this is not a very hidden idea.

Dark and others had already calculated it.

So much so that [Goddess of the Heart's Eye] did not show any surprise after seeing through his idea.

Number One's mind fell to the bottom because of this.

After shortening the distance to this extent, the connection between it and No. 2 has become extremely clear, and many things that cannot be perceived between them can be sensed.
