The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1660 Rumors Kill People

About five minutes later, a security guard patrolling the courtyard discovered the body of Richard Madden with his head shattered.

Without hesitation, the security guard reported to Richard Madden's security supervisor.

The security supervisor did not choose to call the police, but called Eisen De.

As Richard Madden's security director, he obviously knows some things that ordinary people don't know.

In just about ten minutes, Eisen De, the boss of the Southern District Shepherd, appeared in the villa again.

This time it’s not just Essen De.

Free herders in the Southern District and those from other districts were also called up.

Bane is one of them.

Bain, who was drafted again, curled his lips in dissatisfaction.

"Please."

"I also have my own mission."

"Don't make me come every time, okay?"

Bain complained to Horn.

"The fact that you are here proves that the so-called mission you say is not important."

"In other words, you are not irreplaceable in this task."

"I believe in Whiterick's ability!"

"and……"

"According to my experience, if you complain to an acquaintance as soon as you meet them, there is only one possibility: your mission has suffered a setback."

With that said, Horn pushed up his glasses.

Immediately, the spectacle lenses reflected a different light.

"frustration?"

"How could there be a setback?"

"Besides, do I know you well?"

"Do not make jokes."

Bain turned his head away stiffly.

How could he tell what happened to him!

Was he going to tell Horn that the disciple he was very optimistic about and had the potential to be a sage and prophet actually became a cook?

If he really dared to speak out, he would become a laughing stock among the herders in Ai City before dawn.

However, the food made by Luo Ye is really delicious.

So delicious!

I really want to drink a bowl of chicken soup!

Unconsciously, Bain's mouth began to secrete saliva, especially when the cold wind of late autumn blew. In his mind, Bain unconsciously imagined that he was sitting at the small table of Ye Zhi Restaurant, leaning against the heater. The electric stove is sizzling, drinking steaming and fragrant chicken soup, and chatting with Luo Yan from time to time. Although most of the time, he is the one doing the talking and Luo Yan is completely silent, but this feels better.

At least, Luo Yan did not refute him and was completely a qualified confider.

Except that you can't drink, it's a paradise!

call!

Just when Bain fell into fantasy, another gust of cold wind blew.

Bain, who was only wearing sportswear, instantly shrank his neck.

He moved to a position against the wall, glanced at the South District boss Essen De, who carefully inspected the body, and lost any interest.

Bain knew very well that the purpose of his coming here was not to assist in the investigation, nor did he need to help the herders in the Southern District.

As the strongest district in Ai City, the herders in the Southern District do not need help at all.

And the reason why he appears here is just to show it to others.

Let all those who give financial support to the herders understand that the herders value them.

That's all!

As for more?

That means finding the person who killed Richard Madden.

Likewise, there is no need for him to intervene in this matter.

Young people among the South Side ranchers have long been eager to try it.

Bain, who was leaning in the corner, looked at Stina, a young man with a bad temper and good strength, hurriedly asking about the appearance of several people, and couldn't help but shook his head.

It's good to act fast.

But no matter how fast the speed is, it will be useless if there is no result.

Bain was sure that the other party would not ask anything, just like the death of the other party's daughter.

This kind of rich man is the person he least wants and wants to come into contact with.

Because the other party represents big trouble.

"Hey, Bane."

Uttada Darko swayed his fat body and squeezed into this corner. Feeling the wind, which was more than half reduced in an instant, the North District herder grinned: "A good place to take shelter from the wind."

"It would be better here if you didn't squeeze in."

Seeing that half of his body was squeezed out, Bain rolled his eyes.

Then, he squeezed Uttada Darko's belly hard.

"Dude, it's time for you to lose weight."

Bain felt the fat in his hands and couldn't help but sigh.

"Is this the advice you gave me after feeling their cuteness?"

Utta Darko touched his belly and asked proudly.

"no."

"I just think that you have raised a group of white-eyed wolves. You usually feed them with good food and drink, but at the critical moment, they can't help at all."

"I think you'd better cut them!"

Bain shook his head and said seriously.

"No!"

“It’s impossible to cut, and it’s impossible to lose weight!”

“Only food can make me feel the beauty of the world!”

Uttada Darko waved his hand, then pointed at Essen De in the distance and asked: "What do you think will happen?"

"What can we do?"

"In order to find the murderer in a short time, we can only call on the spirit."

Bain said with certainty.

"So……"

"What do you think would happen if there was an accident in summoning the spirit?"

Uttada Darko asked in a longer tone.

"What's the meaning?"

"Do you know anything?"

Bain frowned.

"I do not know anything."

"But, I always feel a little weird."

"A series of things just happened in the North District where I am. The support from the South District has just arrived, and before an investigation has been launched, something like this happened in the South District."

"Or twice!"

"Don't you think it's strange?"

The fat herder asked Bain back.

Bain pondered a little.

He did not refute the other party's words, because, just like what the other party said, it was a bit strange.

But when it came to certain details, Bain couldn't figure it out.

"Is there anything in the North District?"

Bane asked.

"What can there be?"

"I've been searching for a year, but I can't find a single coin."

"Have you not noticed that I have lost some weight recently?"

sighed the fat herder.

Bain rolled his eyes again.

He knew very well how evil-hearted the fat man in front of him was. When there were two herders in the North District, there were people who restrained him to prevent him from going too far. But after the herder died in a gang fight, the whole The North District became the territory of the fat man in front of me.

It is naturally impossible to become rich and powerful, but it is definitely better than ordinary herders.

Otherwise, the other party would not be able to send his daughter to the ‘military camp’ for training.

You know, that kind of place is where money is really burned.

"Then what happened?"

Bain whispered to himself.

At this time, Essen De in the distance had scattered some crystal powder around Richard Madden's body. These crystal powders seemed to be measured by a machine, surrounding Richard Madden, forming a A perfect circle, and then some arcane words.

Finally, there is a diamond the size of a pinky fingernail.

"Eisen. De is really putting his money where his mouth is!"

Jutta Darko couldn't help but start drooling when he looked at the diamond.

Although Bain didn't say anything, he was very jealous.

In the entire Ai City, I am afraid that only the boss of the South District like Aisen De is qualified to use such a large diamond as a 'sacrifice' in the soul summoning ceremony.

other people?

It would be nice to be able to use some exquisite food as a sacrifice.

A low spell sounded from Essen De's mouth.

On Richard Madden's body, a translucent soul slowly emerged.

Confusion appeared on the other person's face.

The other party's mind is very unclear.

It is natural that some things that are usually hidden can no longer be hidden.

A trace of ferocious, oppressive, and uncomfortable aura escapes from the other party's soul.

The expressions of the herders present changed.

That is……

The breath of witchcraft!

The herder is too familiar with the smell of witchcraft!

When Bain and Utta Darko felt this aura, they shouted in unison: "Northern District!"

Essen De, who was presiding over the spiritual summoning ceremony, looked even more ugly.

His gray trench coat was blown left and right in the autumn wind, and his sharp eyes were full of murderous intent in the autumn wind. He raised his hand and waved.

Suddenly, the surrounding herders all rushed towards the north area.

"time is limited!"

The upper evil spirit estimated the time, and the speed became faster and faster.

It has searched for the last of the 'strange' places it found out from those wandering spirits and weird mouths.

Therefore, it became more and more cautious.

It had a premonition that its search this time would be as dangerous as ever!

The upper evil spirits felt that they needed to be more secure.

Therefore, the next moment, the superior evil spirit turned into the appearance of 'Bane', and even the sportswear did not make any difference.

Disguised as 'Bane', the superior evil spirit approached the sewers of the North District.

Although most of the public facilities and buildings on the ground in the North District have been destroyed, everything that was built that year is still preserved underground in the North District.

Although the people of the North District are thugs, they are not fools.

They also don’t want to live in a cesspool.

The upper evil spirit does not need the construction drawings of the North District sewers at all. Some sewage and walls cannot stop it at all.

After turning invisible, the upper evil spirit quickly shuttled to the lowest level.

The superior evil spirit paused here for a moment. After carefully distinguishing it, it drilled again.

This time, it was in dry conditions.

However, it is still full of filth.

There is no sewage and feces, but there are a lot of internal organs mixed in.

The internal organs have turned black and smelly.

In this almost airtight space, there was a suffocating smell. The upper evil spirit took a look at the way the internal organs were arranged, especially under the internal organs, which also contained some strange attachments, and immediately carefully avoided them. .

Although it couldn't identify the meaning of it with its mysterious knowledge, but with Qin Ran as an example, it knew not to mess with things it didn't understand.

But in front of him, such internal organs were almost filled with the passage that was obviously dug out.

A very simple and crude trap.

But it is undoubtedly useful!

At least, that's how it works for most people.

And for higher-level evil spirits?

nonexistent!

If this road doesn't work, then find another way!

The superior evil spirit struck again.

The entire body sank into the bottom of the tunnel. With its fairly good sense of perception, it figured out the direction and immediately went around to the end of the tunnel excavation.

Or to be more precise, it is the location that the tunnel digger wants to reach.

A ruin!

It's not big, just a room the size of a basketball court.

There are murals on the walls, but they have long since decayed, leaving only some fragmented pictures.

In the middle of the room, there is a platform that is as big as a billiard table. The platform is square. Except for the surface of the platform, which is as white as jade, the four sides are as dark as ink.

In the middle of the platform, on an equally dark shelf, was a gem the size of a red date.

The gem itself should be as transparent as glass, but the surroundings of the gem are emitting colorful lights. The superior evil spirits did not come close. Just bathing in the colorful light for a while, I felt that the physical strength I had just consumed was being replenished rapidly.

nice one!

Undoubtedly good stuff!

The upper evil spirit looked at the gem with gleaming eyes.

However, it was in no hurry.

It observed the entire room carefully, and then extended its head into the table. After seeing some of the arrangements inside, the upper evil spirit smiled.

Very simple layout.

It's a triggering mechanism.

To put it simply, after someone takes away the gems on the shelf, without the suppression, the machine spring will be triggered.

"How crude!"

The superior evil spirit said this while getting into the passage above his head.

After finding another pebble of similar size, the superior evil spirit returned to the secret room. It raised one hand and reached into the table, pressed the mechanism, and picked up the gem with the other hand.

Then, place the pebbles you just found on top.

After doing all this, the superior evil spirit breathed a long sigh of relief.

But immediately, the superior evil spirit discovered something was wrong.

It is actually recovering!

Its sealed power was restored again!

In a very slow way!

After a moment of silence, the upper evil spirit shook his head.

"It's too slow!"

The upper evil spirit sighed.

This slow recovery is of little use to it.

Even to some extent, it is meaningless.

Because as long as you leave here, it can be restored immediately.

Moreover, it can recover even if its boss recovers.

However, the superior evil spirit did not dislike this trophy.

After all, this is not its trophy, it belongs to its Boss.

As for what it discovered?

Does it matter?

Even it belongs to the Boss.

Not to mention what it discovered?

Holding the gem tightly with his hand, the upper evil spirit dived directly underground, and then returned the same way. The upper evil spirit was worried that the breath of the gem would be discovered.

The best option is to dive deep underground and return to the restaurant from the underground.

And just ten minutes after the superior evil spirit left, the wall of this secret room was suddenly broken open.

A figure walked out of it.

"Philosopher's Stone!"

"The Philosopher's Stone is mine!"

The other party shouted like this.

But when he saw the pebbles on the shelf, he was stunned.

The people behind him were also stunned.

"Is this the Philosopher's Stone?"

one of them asked.

"certainly!"

"As expected of the Philosopher's Stone, it is no different from ordinary stones. Ordinary people cannot discover the secrets within it. Do you think it will be like those magic stones, allowing you to see the extraordinary at a glance?"

The leader quickly came to his senses, turned around and scolded his men.

This is the Philosopher's Stone!

He found it after a lot of hard work!

How could he let people slander it?

Slandering it is not slandering its efforts and wisdom?

The people around him couldn't help but nodded after hearing the leader's words.

The divine thing is hidden from view!

They have all heard similar rumors.

Such a philosopher’s stone is not surprising at all!

Only this kind of Philosopher's Stone is the real Philosopher's Stone!

If you put a dazzling one, it will definitely be a trap!

Thinking of this, everyone's eyes immediately turned to the pebble.

Hot!

urgent!

Full of greed!

But they didn't move, because they all knew that where the Philosopher's Stone was placed, there would be great danger and great terror.

You have to be careful!

But at this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the passage they dug.

Essen De took the lead. When he saw this group of people, he immediately had murderous intent in his eyes. When he saw the pebbles on the shelf through the gaps in the crowd, the murderous intent became even stronger.

Without hesitation, Essen De drew his sword.

People who use witchcraft are the mortal enemies of the herders.

What's more, there is...

Philosopher's Stone!
