Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 152 Destined Encounter (Thanks Jiangnannan, Baiyinmeng)

The Loen military demigod with golden eyes nodded in agreement.

"It's true, it's very similar to some guys from the Intis intelligence agency. ahref="http://"target="_"/a

"However, just a few seconds after he took the lump of soil, the mummy of Tutansis II disappeared, and it should be too late to complete the ceremony."

The lady in the evening dress looked down at the crown of thorns on her neck, and said with a slightly slow reaction

"Perhaps he, or they, had already done the other steps of the ceremony, and as soon as he was teleported back, he immediately threw the lump of dirt into the altar and completed the last step.

"Of course, it doesn't have to be a ritual. It may also be some sealed item that can use bodily fluids to achieve a certain effect. In this regard, there are too many possibilities."

Although the main effect and negative effects of the sealed item will generally follow the sequence characteristics of the 22 pathways, the researchers can barely make a certain guess, but, just like everyone has a different personality, the sealed item is different depending on the combination of things and when it is formed. Different conditions, such as the environment, the aura of a high-ranking person that may exist, or the curse of the original owner, also have various strange characteristics. Without actual testing, no one can think of it in advance, so they will list them one by one.

Jinyan demigodly pulled away the chair, sat down and said

"This aspect is difficult to investigate, so you can ignore it for the time being, but you just missed a direction of investigation.

"Do you remember the 'tornado'? It rolled up the coffin of the mummy of King Tutansis II, causing the leakage of the ritual material inside, that is, the bodily fluids, and made the mummy roll out, gaining vivification In short, this laid the foundation for the subsequent development, so it can be completely confirmed that this is what the mysterious person or his assistant did."

The laziness in the eyes of the lady in the evening dress faded a little, and she slowly took off the crown of thorns and said

"You mean, the Church of Storms holds the high-sequence formulas and most of the Extraordinary characteristics of the 'Sailor' pathway. There aren't too many Extraordinary or magical items that don't belong to them but can create 'Tornado'. You can follow this line Check it out?"

The golden-eyed demigod nodded

"And I remember that not long ago, there was a case in the Eastern District. Mr. X of the Aurora Society was directly killed by someone at a party he called. At that time, 'Lightning Storm' and 'Tornado' were used on the scene.

"This has aroused the great attention of the Church of the Storm, and has been looking for clues.

"There were two 'tornadoes' in the same area in a short period of time that did not belong to the official organization. It would not be a coincidence. I think it can be preliminarily determined that this is intrinsically related. The murder of Mr. X and the robbery of the mummy are likely to be a group of people. , it is necessary for us to investigate together with the Church of the Storm.”

The evening dress lady put down her crown of thorns and thought for a moment

"This is a good direction. Look. Yarn, Chinese website

"Also, we can also analyze some situations from their purpose and motivation. People who simply regard mummies as living corpse materials cannot take such a high risk to try to steal them. I suspect that for those people, The mummy of Tutansis II has added significance."

"The key to the ceremony?" Jinyan half-focused and said, "Judging from the situation at the scene,

The one holding the special item to attract the mummy to chase after him should be a 'Wraith', or have a corresponding magical item, combined with the purpose and motivation, I have a guess..."

The lady in the evening dress had a heart move and blurted out

"A temperate defector from the Rose School?"

"Yes." The golden-eyed demigod nodded lightly, "Although the production of mummies has been influenced by various aspects such as the death god's belief in sun worship, after the Rose School dominated the highlands and river valleys, it did not prohibit such burials. Customs, this is enough to show that mummies should have a certain effect on them, perhaps a certain sequence of ritual needs."

Having said that, he laughed lowly, full of self-deprecation.

"There is another possibility, showing off and acting.

"That group of people may not really want the mummy, but because they just met the conditions and had the opportunity to steal it, they made a grand performance. For certain sequences of certain pathways, this is the key to digesting the potion. "

As a demigod and demihuman existence, he has seen a lot of things, and naturally there are many possibilities that he can think of.

The lady in the evening dress thought about it, and said in a deep voice

"I suspect it's not a single possibility, but a mixture of factors.

"We use this as a basis to investigate."

…………

Backlund, Jorwood District, near the Tussock River.

"The Silent Man" Mahms sat in front of the square table covered with a tablecloth, looked at the golden nails placed on it, and said in a low voice

"Zatwin, who do you think stole the mummy of Kadev?"

Not far behind him, on the piano bench, a figure was quickly outlined.

This figure was wearing a black clergyman's robe, and a black glove on his left palm. His face was thin, his skin was brownish, his eyes were sunken like a mummy, and his beard had black roots and white extensions, extending from the sides of his mouth to his ears. However, they are not bushy and rather short, giving them a spotty appearance.

Zatvin's eyes are close to his skin tone, and are light brown. They clearly have the temperament of a priest, but they are cold and terrifying. It seems that he will pervert in silence. He thought for a while and said

"Those who yearn for the mummy of Kadev and are willing to take risks in the demigod battle can be counted on one hand. Among them, Sharon is the only one hiding in Backlund.

"She should have received the help of Reinette Tinekerr, otherwise she would not be able to succeed."

Mahms picked up a golden nail covered with fine patterns, and said in silence for a few seconds.

"Who is that good at teleportation?

"It's not like Gehrman Sparrow...Sharon hired another helper?"

"Maybe." Zatwin coughed twice, and said with a pale and blue face, "I think we still have to find a way to pray to the mother tree, which should give us some enlightenment."

Mahmus nodded lightly, and pierced the golden nail in his palm to his mouth, piercing through his upper and lower lips.

Seeing this, Zatvin covered his mouth, got up slowly, and went down to the first floor with some difficulty, preparing to leave here and return to his hiding place.

On the first floor, he saw the dark environment and the shining candlelight, and the smell of food floated from various places and permeated the air - the houses in the nearby streets were all rowed, and the ground floor facing the street belonged to shops, and the houses of the Rose School of thought On the surface, this contact point is a restaurant, which focuses on the characteristics of the Southern Continent.

Because he was seriously injured in the previous action, Zatvin didn't want to stay in the state of evil spirit all the time, which is a big burden for him now, so he had to walk towards the door step by step in the black clergy robe .

Just then, a customer came in at the door of the restaurant.

The customer had a black suit, black trousers and black leather shoes, a pair of black eyes and a thin face.

He had a broad forehead, a monocle and a tall top hat, and his eyes flicked randomly, falling on Zatvin.

Glancing at the black glove on Zatvin's left palm, the corner of the customer's mouth was slightly drawn, and he shook his head with a smile, as if he was a little disappointed.

Then, he entered the dining room, brushing past Zatwin, who returned with a malicious stare.

Zatwin didn't pay much attention, and walked outside, onto the street.

In the light of gas street lamps, and the cool night breeze blowing over, the demigod of the Rose School of thought suddenly shuddered.

Zatvin knew that this was a sign of inspiration, and his heart tightened. He quickly looked down at his hands, and was surprised to find that the black glove on his left palm was gone!

gone!

As a half-god and half-human existence, Zatwin didn't know when the sealed item he was wearing disappeared!

He turned around suddenly, looked into the restaurant, and the image of the man just now appeared in his mind.

Soon, he locked on to the target's aura, found that the target was still in the restaurant, and even greeted the waiter to ask for a menu.

Zatwin originally wanted to "mirror flash" directly and possess him, but for some reason, his hands trembled involuntarily, and he vaguely felt that there were dangerous, terrifying and hard-to-find enemies hiding around him one after another!

Thoughts flashed by like lightning, Zatvin subconsciously stepped sideways to the end of the street, as if nothing had happened just now.

…………

Jorwood District, inside a house.

Forsi was flipping through the latest issue of "Lady's Aesthetics", when she suddenly heard the sound of a key being twisted and the door opening.

"It's so late today?" She looked up at Xio at the door.

Xio rubbed her short blond hair and said

"When I was about to come back, I saw the meeting sign of MI9, so I was in a hurry."

"What's going on this time?" Forsi put down the magazine in her hand with great interest.

"The continuation of the murder case of Mr. X last time." Xio said casually while bending over to put on the slippers at home.

Forsi's expression froze, her eyes turned slightly

"Any clues?"

"It can't be called a clue, uh, there was a demigod-level 'tornado' at the scene, which is not common outside the Church of Storms, and earlier tonight, a pier in Pritz Harbor also encountered a small-scale 'tornado' 'Attack, a pharaoh mummy was stolen in the chaos." Xio briefly explained, "MI9 suspected that the two things were done by the same group, so we urged our informants to work harder to collect information and find out clue."

...I still have a "tornado" on my "Leymanor Travel Notebook"...Mr. Gehrman Sparrow? What did he do to steal the pharaoh's mummy... Forsi forced a smile

"Maybe it was done by the Church of the Storm?"

Xio gave her a blank look, and quickly walked into the kitchen, looking for food.

…………

In the early morning, 160 Berklund Street.

Klein had just finished washing, and before he could open the door to let his personal servant Richardson in, he was touched by inspiration. He saw the headless body of Miss Messenger walking out of the void holding four heads.

One of them bit the thick envelope, and the other opened his mouth, spit out a lot of gold coins.

It's finally time to pay off the debt... Klein glanced at Reinette Tinickerr's half neck that was not connected to the body under the four heads, and heaved a sigh of relief.

"I remember that you are still short of 3413 gold coins, and now you can take the last part of the arrears."

At the same time, he inexplicably felt that the pile of gold coins looked familiar, but he didn't pay much attention to it, because all the gold coins looked familiar to him.
