Chapter 839 Blocked Light
At the far other end, in the silent interrogation room.
On the seat on one side of the long table, a man who looked to be in his thirties or forties was staring blankly at the woman across from him.
Opposite him, a young lady in luxurious dress and veil was looking at him with a smile on her face.
The refreshing aroma filled the room.
The man with a sluggish face responded to the woman's question sentence by sentence.
And at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Although the voice was abrupt, the man being interrogated did not show any signs of sobriety, only the smile on the woman's face became weaker.
After glancing at the dull-looking man, she walked out of the interrogation room.
Outside the door, a masked man bowed his head respectfully:
"Your Highness, we have found the real Sharn Castle, but we have not found Mrs. Dogra's relic."
Following the calm voice, the man put his hands on his chest and bowed respectfully to the woman.
"I see."
Without any expression, the woman just nodded:
"Continue to investigate, and what about the whereabouts of the Falconry Ring?"
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, we haven't got any news about the Falconry Ring either. We suspect it's just smoke from the royal family."
The masked man responded in a low voice, with guilt in his voice.
"Okay, let's continue to check until we get to the end."
The woman didn't have any words of criticism, but just said this lightly. After watching the other party bow her head and step aside without saying a word, she also left the door of the interrogation room along the corridor.
However, as she walked, she tugged at her silk gloves.
After the woman completely disappeared from sight, the man wearing a mask took a deep breath, seemed to relax a bit, and walked towards the interrogation room with the door slightly open.
However, when he saw the scene inside the door clearly, he couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
Behind the long table, a barely human-shaped tree sculpture is almost embedded in the wall.
The general outline can still be seen with a vague outline of a human figure, but its body is almost completely transformed into a plant.
A series of distinct vines and branches pierced his body, but no scars could be seen at the pierced location, as if it had completely integrated into his body. Starting from the pierced location, the surrounding All the parts have become like trees, if not in shape, they are like a real tree.
No, it already is.
Maybe not before, but now and in the future, it will be.
Is this the ability of "Witch"?
Your Highness has grown to this level.
"Maybe, the throne can return to Alan's crown."
Holding a little awe, the man took one last look at the tree sculpture before walking out of the interrogation room.
"Alan is more qualified to be the master of this land than Katesia."
While whispering, the man gradually walked away.
The man didn't notice that the moment he walked out of the gate, the arm of the humanoid tree sculpture trembled slightly.
Red Rose City, in the stronghold of the Thorn Tree.
"Priest Jacqueline, I put the information here first."
With the sound of a female voice, a slightly cautious girl bowed slightly, turned sideways to avoid the oncoming lady, and walked out.
A young woman in a maid outfit.
Jacqueline.
She didn't respond, and just smiled and walked back to her "work" position.
Intelligence, the collation and analysis of piles and piles of intelligence.
Of course, as a priest, she does not need to deal with some small matters personally.
However, there are not so many people now.
The young man sitting in another seat watched this scene happen without saying a single word.
Although no body has been found, the disappearance of Priest Friesen is a certainty.
Such a thing is not an exception.
This happens everywhere.
Not to mention far away, but a little closer, in the southwest side of Dilud City, a few Extraordinary people disappeared inexplicably in the Thorn Tree.
Started a year ago.
He didn't know what happened either.
Even though he regained his position as the speaker of Dirod's Thorn Tree because of this incident, he was not happy.
Fortunately, just half a month ago, Ms. Jacqueline came.
A Extraordinary who has worked with Brother Friesen and also has mid-sequence strength.
Although she is not a member of one of the big families in Red Rose City, judging from the current power structure in Red Rose City, it is better not to be a member of one of the big families.
After all, several families are about to fight.
"Cliver, how's the investigation on the Scarlet Order going?"
The sudden inquiry made Clover stand up in a jerk:
"Your Excellency, the members of the Scarlet Order have recently appeared in the small town to the southwest."
"Southwest direction."
As Jacqueline repeated, her eyes wandered over the map marks on the table:
"Where do you think they were before?"
This inquiry made Clover silent for a moment:
"Taclanxia."
This response made Jacqueline nodded:
"Don't act rashly, and then investigate."
"yes."
Clover nodded in response, but he seemed to remember something again, and took out a piece of paper from the stack of papers on his desk:
"About the Scarlet Order, there is an unconfirmed piece of information here."
He passed the information to Jacqueline.
And Jacqueline stood in front of the table like this, her beautiful eyes quickly scanned the information above.
Seeing some useful news, Jacqueline's eyes brightened a little, and she asked quickly and directly:
"How did you get this information?"
The corners of Clover's mouth hooked slightly, revealing a bitter smile with embarrassment:
"It is the information provided by a newcomer who has just joined in Dilud City."
"This rookie claimed to have encountered such situations many times, and after surviving several dangers, our team members noticed the problem of strength."
"Strength??" The young woman subconsciously asked.
"Is the operation of performing ceremonies more frequent?"
Whispering, she narrowed her eyes slightly:
"Cliffer, go and ask for information on other people in Dilud City that already have the rituals of the Scarlet Order, and see how they are distributed."
"yes!"
Clover nodded quickly, and ran out of the room under Jacqueline's gaze.
And when he left, Jacqueline's eyes once again fell on the paper in her hand, and her slender white fingers began to stroke the paper.
With her rubbing movements, the paper seemed to become softer.
However, almost at the same time, she also saw those vague and unclear things on paper lose their strength. .
