Chapter 278 Out of Control

Sitting in the magnificent guest room, Lin Qi finally had some time to be alone. He finally let go of his worries that had been hanging for the whole night. Even this room full of nouveau riche atmosphere was not so annoying.

However, Lin Qi still did not dare to relax too much. Although there was no surveillance and eavesdropping in this era, there were strange and unpredictable abilities everywhere. It was hard to say whether he would be monitored.

Let's maintain this state for the next few days. Throwing himself lazily into the sofa, Lin Qi brushed off the long skirt on his body and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Sure enough, there are only zero times and countless times of wearing women's clothes. I'm actually a little used to it.

What I wear is actually an ordinary men's shirt and casual trousers, and the shoes are also ordinary men's leather shoes, but under the effect of the round fan, the whole person, including the clothes, has been transformed from a conceptual state into a female state, becoming a real cross-dressing boss.

It's really scary. After maintaining this state for a long time, it seems that even the psychological sense of identity has been subtly generated. Hiss, it won't be that this fan has any sequelae. If there are sequelae, I can't use it casually in the future.

[No sequelae. ]

‘Huh, that’s good. ’

[It’s just that some unique hobbies have awakened. ]

‘Just say don’t mess around with my memory, look at what messed up things you have learned. ’

[Isn’t the point why there are these strange things in your memory? Information disturbance has affected me. ]

‘That’s the cultural accumulation of a world for thousands of years. Tsk, how can there be so many things accumulated... Be serious, undercover. ’

Enjoying the gentle chuckle in his mind, the tension of going deep into the enemy’s nest gradually faded, Lynch slowly calmed down, and carefully thought about his tasks in the past few days.

Find the inner ghost, hand the evidence to Walker, calm their nervousness, use the real gem to trick him into advancing the ritual, the ritual will of course fail, take this opportunity to expose the conspiracy of Howard and Prince William, as for the rest of the matter, it is not the business of a second-level rookie.

In theory, it is true, but it is impossible to really find out the traitor and kill him. The specific operation can only be decided according to the situation at that time, but the most urgent thing is to find out the traitor first.

Within three days.

The question is how to find it? Lynch frowned and opened the information that Walker gave him before leaving.

The information shows that the twelve people summoned by Howard are divided into two groups, inside and outside. Five people perform the ceremony and one person is on standby in case of emergency. It is said that once the ceremony is successfully completed, a tomb of the third era can be opened. At that time, Howard will only take one thing from it, and the rest of the gains will be divided equally among the twelve people.

Greed is the original sin of mankind. For a few Elizabeths, many people can even sell out their biological parents, not to mention just helping Howard and Prince William to create disasters. Lynch has seen a lot of such things in movies and TV dramas, and he doesn't find it strange.

However, after preliminary judgment, it is more likely that the traitor is hidden among the six people responsible for the external ceremony, because they at least have legal identities. The other six people in charge of the internal ceremony are all cultists with bounties on their bodies, and they are not necessarily all human. It is almost impossible for such identities to cooperate with the authorities, especially the Lord God Church.

Focusing on the six people in the present group, Lynch reread the information and felt a headache after reading it.

The people in this manor are really talented. Lynch wants to leave after seeing it.

The six members of the external ceremony:

A relic explorer who focuses all his energy on the ancient tomb;

An archaeologist who was expelled from the Archaeological Association a few years ago and has a deep hatred for the Archaeological Association;

An antiquities hunter, who is said to be a lucky person who has not died strangely in 20 years of work;

An ancient book broker who specializes in finding victims for the owners;

A folklorist who specializes in studying folk customs in the hidden villages in Middle-earth, but always brings back tribal sacred objects or totems and other local specialties;

A philologist who specializes in translating ancient characters and is proficient in multiple characters in the Second Age of Savagery and the Third Age of Darkness. He is much more professional than a rookie archaeologist like Lynch who knows five characters.

Howard, you are raising poisonous insects.

These are all high-risk professions in the mysterious world. If you randomly choose one and release it, you can create several mysterious tragedies, starting with the whole group being wiped out, and there is no upper limit. Now that they are gathered together, Lynch is very suspicious whether Mayor Howard no longer loves his manor and plans to tear it down and rebuild it.

Forget it, there is no point in worrying. Try to contact them first, and act carefully without exposing yourself. With my level of inspiration, maybe I can find abnormalities when I contact them.

It has to be as soon as possible.

Having made up his mind, Lynch rubbed his forehead, stuffed the information into his bracelet, and left the room with a round fan.

The lights were not turned off, so arrogant!

The corridor was also brightly lit, and two rows of gorgeous wooden doors were neatly arranged in the long corridor. This entire floor is the guest rooms of Lakeside Manor, and all the guests summoned by Howard are concentrated on this floor.

Knocking on the door to find someone to chat, maybe Lynch can, but Selene definitely can't. However, Lynch was not embarrassed, but held the round fan and walked leisurely towards the stairs.

The entertainment room is on the first floor. There are fine wines and food and various entertainment facilities prepared by Howard for the guests. Although it is past nine o'clock now, there should still be people there.

Hurry up and contact a few people to see what's going on.

Click click click, the heels stepped on the smooth stone floor, and the sound echoed in the empty corridor. However, just after Lin Qi took a few steps, a door next to him suddenly opened, and a person hurriedly ran out of it, heading straight towards Lynch ran into it.

There were no signs.

Oops.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Qi had no time to think about anything and reacted based on instinct.

The reaction was nothing.

There was a playful look in his eyes, and his steps were not messy at all. He continued to move forward at his original pace, as elegant as a dance, as if he didn't see anyone bumping into him at all.

The next moment, the figure bumped into Lin Qi.

Then it passed directly through Lynch as if he had hit a phantom, because Lynch activated the phase defense necklace at the last moment, consuming the opportunity to use it once a day.

This was an instinctive reaction, but Lynch didn't regret it at all, because this person's recklessness was probably a test. No matter whether he dodged or pushed, he would look a little embarrassed and expose his own strength. This was the only way to do it. , in order to resolve it in an understatement without affecting your own style.

And in this capacity, I can intimidate Walker and the others by maintaining my strength. Losing my strength is tantamount to a disaster.

Therefore, Lynch just sneered softly and said quietly: "Ha... be careful when walking. Sometimes walking is like life. Once you make a wrong step, there will be no turning back. What do you think? Haha."

After saying that, he turned his attention to the person who bumped into him.

He was a young man in his twenties, wearing a gray vest and a peaked cap. He had a handsome face under short blond hair.

The astonishment on the young man's face flashed away, and then he showed an apologetic smile that was hard to tell. He touched his chest and bowed: "I'm sorry, beautiful lady, I was distracted. Otherwise, with your beautiful appearance, I would never be able to see you." Ignore. I am Carl Jones, an explorer and a guest of the owner of the manor. If you don’t mind, I would like to invite the beautiful lady downstairs for a drink to express my apology.”

Hiss, the first one on the list came to the door. It would be a good time to have a chat and find out the situation. Although he thought so in his heart, Lynch still showed an incomprehensible smile and sneered: "It's a pity, I dislike it."

With that said, he slowly passed Carl Jones and walked towards the entertainment room on the first floor. Carl almost choked to death at this answer. He scratched his head in embarrassment and let out a few giggles, and then followed closely.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the entertainment room one after another. However, as soon as Carl took a step forward and helped Lynch open the door to the entertainment room, an exclamation came from inside.

"Careful, it's out of control."

At the same time, a colorful light, like a speeding rainbow, had already rushed in front of Lin Qi.
