Chapter 247 "Mr. Fox" And "Ms. Wolf"

Rebecca recognized at a glance that the ghostly black shadow was the "shadow" that had attacked her and Joan in the big house before, and she couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice.

Hold the holy emblem in a hurry, and release positive energy to disperse the undead.

"Don't be impulsive, 'Aying' is also one of us!" Xiao Miao hurriedly turned her head to stop Rebecca, "She is my eldest sister's servant."

Rebecca put down the silver chain wrapped around her wrist, and muttered in a low voice, "Isn't your eldest sister a necromancer or an evil priest who worships death?"

Apart from these two kinds of people, she couldn't think of anyone else who would summon "Shadow" to be her servant.

"My eldest sister is not a necromancer, nor is she an evil priest. You will understand when you meet her."

Xiao Miao smiled mysteriously, and whispered to the ghost named "A Ying".

Youying nodded, retreated into the crack of the door like an ebbing tide, and disappeared without a trace.

Xiao Miao pushed open the door, and a faint smell of wine wafted into her nostrils.

On the opposite side of the door is a staircase extending downwards, with no end in sight.

After all, Rebecca is a rich lady. Looking at the layout of the door, she could guess where the stairs lead to, and told Joan in a low voice: "Most of the stairs lead to the cellar where Snow Manor stores its own wine."

Joan nodded knowingly, took her hand and followed Xiaomiao down the stairs.

The leather boots stepped on the wet stone steps, echoing in the void, and the dark corridor ahead seemed to have no end, which made people panic.

A group of three people made several turns and finally reached the end of the stairs.

Facing it is a spacious underground hall, and rows of wine barrels marked with different years are placed on neatly arranged wooden shelves.

Sure enough, as Rebecca guessed, this is a rather large underground wine cellar.

Most of the space in the wine cellar was shrouded in darkness, with only a hazy light in the distance ahead.

Xiao Miao led Joan and Rebecca towards the direction of the light, and did not stop until they were in front of the light source.

Here is a corner at the end of the wine cellar, with a wooden table and two empty barrels used as seats against the wall.

On the wooden table, there are candlesticks blessed with "inextinguishable bright flames", a crystal clear crystal ball, a chess set and two goblets.

The dark red wine in the glass rippled slightly, and under the reflection of the magic candlestick, there was a dreamlike luster.

A man and a woman sit on empty barrels on either side of a wooden table and are playing chess.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, they turned around one after another, casting meaningful glances at Joan and Rebecca.

The man was of medium height, dressed in a well-crafted tuxedo and a top hat, and looked like an elegant gentleman, his face covered by a fox mask with a raised beard that seemed to be grinning.

The woman sitting opposite him was taller, her short black windbreaker highlighted her slim waist and long legs, and her blond hair was cut very short without a trace of mottled color. Wearing a sinister silver wolf-head mask on his face, only his red lips and a pair of unusually sharp eyes are exposed, giving people a strong and arrogant impression.

"Sister, Mr. Fox, these two little guests are Joan and Rebecca."

Xiao Miao first introduced the visitor to the pair of men and women, and then introduced to Joan and Rebecca:

"These two are my bosses. According to our rules, members of the organization are not allowed to reveal their true identities to outsiders. Anyway, the name is just a code name. You might as well call them 'Ms. Wolf' and 'Mr. Fox'."

"Good evening, two children, and welcome to our party."

"Mr. Fox" seems to be a warm and hearty person. He took the initiative to shake hands with Joan and Rebecca one by one, and asked Xiaomiao to bring two empty wine barrels to invite them to sit down.

Mr. Fox was wearing white silk gloves, but judging from the soft touch when shaking hands, Joan was sure that this person didn't need to rely on manual labor to make a living, but looked like a rich man with no worries about food and clothing.

"Ms. Wolf" folded her hands on her chest, watching Joan and Rebecca in silence, apparently not interested in dealing with the two little guys. Judging from the temperament she exudes, she looks like a strong woman with a weird temper and self-admiration.

Joan also noticed that the shadow named "A Ying" was quietly attached to the wall behind "Ms. Wolf".

The curves of Youying's body are almost exactly the same as that of "Ms. Wolf", as if it was drawn from a painting.

This detail aroused his curiosity, and he looked down at the shadow of "Ms. Wolf".

Joan was surprised to find that the shadow of "Ms. Wolf" was very light, in stark contrast to the dark projections formed by other people under the light, like a gray ink stain diluted by water.

Just now, Joan suspected that "Ms. Wolf" was a necromancer or a death priest. Seeing her shadow that was so faint that it almost disappeared, she completely overturned her previous guess and guessed that "Ms. Wolf" was a "Shadow Dancer" By".

"Shadow Dancer" is a special advanced extraordinary profession. Its professional specialty is to obtain magic power from the shadows, and use various spells and supernatural powers closely related to the shadows.

"Shadow Dancer" has a professional ability, which is to cut a part of its own projection as a material, and fuse magic power to create a "shadow servant".

"Shadow Servant" is absolutely loyal to "Shadow Dancer", and does not have a time limit like other summoned creatures. It can serve the master forever, and it will not be dispelled by the priest like ordinary shadows.

Qiao An took a deep look at "Ms. Wolf", and then looked away at "Mr. Fox".

He faintly sensed the fluctuation of magic power from this mysterious man, which showed that the other party was a professional spellcaster.

Judging from the extraordinary charm of "Mr. Fox"'s words and deeds, he is probably not a mage, but more like a warlock or bard.

Joan accidentally saw a crystal ball on the wooden table next to "Mr. Fox". The inside of the ball reflected a miniature image of Snow Manor.

It can be seen that Mr. Fox used this crystal ball to cast the scrying spell just now. No wonder he knew exactly what happened outside the wine cellar, and even eavesdropped on the conversation between himself, Rebecca and Xiao Miao.

"Mr. Fox and I want to chat with these two children. It's none of your business here. Go back first." "Ms. Wolf" said to Xiao Miao.

"Okay sister, by the way, Joan is my good friend, don't bully him!" Xiao Miao said worriedly.

"I know what's going on, don't talk too much, let's go!" "Ms. Wolf" seemed a little impatient.

Xiao Miao seemed to be very afraid of her, so she nodded helplessly, and deliberately slowed down when she turned around and passed Qiao An, and whispered in his ear: "Don't be brave, take care!"

Qiao An nodded silently. As Xiao Miao left the wine cellar, there were only two mysterious people wearing masks left in front of him, and the sense of crisis in his heart rose rapidly.
