Chapter 1569 Is There a Ghost?

world.

A suburb far away from the urban area.

Pieces of dilapidated low-rise villas are almost completely encroached by vegetation.

Not only the outer walls, but even the inner walls and ground are covered with vines of different varieties and colors.

In such a deserted place, a figure suddenly appeared.

That figure looked a bit like an extremely burly human being, wearing a pure black robe, hiding his entire figure in it.

He walked slowly to the side of a low building, turned to face the wall covered with vines, and then took off the hood of his robe.

The exposed face, to be more precise, the four faces, is the Four-faced Man, one of the six overlords in the inner world.

And almost at the same time he took off his hood, vines began to squirm quickly on the wall full of vines, forming a giant face in the blink of an eye.

"Four sides, I am surprised that you asked to meet alone this time." The giant face made of vines spoke first, "Tell me, what is it that made you insist on meeting with me at the risk of being killed by me?" I'll talk."

"My fragment of the city lord's seal was stolen." The people on all sides said without even saying a word of greeting.

"Stolen?! Do you know who did it?" Hearing this sentence, the giant face on the wall showed a surprised expression, and his tone was full of surprise.

"I don't know who it is, but I think it is more than 90% likely to be an outsider." The people around seem to be very sure about this point.

"How did you lose it? Tell me more in detail." The giant face immediately asked.

"I put that fragment in the storage ring that I wear most often." The people around said, pulling off their cuffs, revealing the storage ring worn on the left middle finger. "Every time I take something out or put something in it, I subconsciously scan it with my divine sense. But yesterday, when I was taking something out, I suddenly found that the fragment was missing."

"The ring that is worn close to the body, how can the contents disappear?" The giant face was a little puzzled, "Have you ever taken it off?"

"I did take it off when I took a bath the day before yesterday. And I went to the ring to store a batch of things in three days. At that time, I used my spiritual sense to sweep the storage space once, and the fragments were there." The people around nodded, "So It is certain that the time when the fragment of the city lord's seal disappeared was the period between the two scans of the storage space with my divine sense. During this period, I happened to take off the storage ring, and someone should have taken the opportunity to tamper with it secretly."

"I can grasp the timing when you take off the ring, you can open your storage ring, and you can return the storage ring quietly..." The giant face made of vines showed a slightly mocking smile, "I'm afraid it's not you!" There must be an inner ghost under his command. And the person who can open your storage ring should be someone very close."

"I think so too." When the people on all sides said this, the expressions on all four faces became gloomy.

"Escaped by that inner ghost?" Seeing the faces of the people around him, the giant face asked with a smile.

"Kill it." When the people on all sides said these two words, their expressions became more and more gloomy.

He found the succubus the first time he found the fragments of the city lord's seal missing.

After a lot of words and deeds to extract a confession but found nothing, he personally killed the succubus.

"Didn't ask anything?" The giant face asked.

"No." The people on all sides shook their heads, "She should have been controlled by hypnotic methods, and she didn't know anything about the fragments of the city lord's seal. Forcibly read the memory, and couldn't read any information about the mastermind behind the scenes."

"No clue at all?" The giant face was also a little surprised.

"No." The people around shook their heads, "That's why I said, it's very likely that an outsider did it."

"You lost the fragment of the seal of the city lord, so what do you mean by finding me now? Do you want me to help you find it?" The giant face asked with a smile. He had already guessed seven or eight points of the other party's true intention.

"Since these outsiders are here for the fragments of the city lord's seal, they will come to you sooner or later." The people on all sides said frankly without making any detours, "I want to join hands with you to kill these people!"

Hearing these words, the giant face fell into a moment of silence, and it took a long time before speaking again.

"Why should I believe you? You may just make up a story, but the real purpose is to take the piece in my hand."

"If you want me to prove that I have one thing, it's very simple, I just take it out. But you want me to prove that I don't have one thing, I can't do it. I have no way to prove that my piece of city lord The seal fragments have been lost." The people around shook their heads, "I can only say that I came to you this time with sincerity. My purpose is only for those outsiders, and I don't care about the fragment in your hand. Any ideas."

"Believe it or not, it's up to you. If you are willing to cooperate, then we will cooperate. If you are not willing, I will not force you. I will find another way to seek revenge from these people."

"But I still want to remind you that it's only a matter of time before they know that you have the fragment of the city lord's seal in your hand, and they will find you sooner or later..."

The giant face fell silent again. He has known the people on all sides for many years, and he knows that although the other party is a cunning person, this time it really doesn't look like he is setting up a trap for himself. If so, then his acting skills are too superb.

"Assuming that what you said is true, why did you come to help me?"

"The purpose of this group of outsiders is the seal of the city lord. If they really get all the pieces of the seal of the city lord, what do you think will happen next?" The people on all sides did not answer the question of the giant face, but asked him another question.

"If the outsiders get the seal of the city lord..." The giant face on the wall had an obviously strange expression, "They might... erase everything that exists and rebuild the magic city..."

It wasn't until this time that the words came out unconsciously, and the giant face seemed to realize the seriousness of the problem.

He hadn't thought of this level before, and he just thought it was a bit funny that the people on all sides lost the fragment of the city lord's seal. But now, I'm terrified.

"It's not possible, but it will be!" The people on all sides corrected, "Think about it carefully, if you are an outsider and get the complete seal of the city lord, you will leave the original Illusionary City without making any changes. Is it? Anyway, if it were me, I would tear down all the original settings and rebuild a magic city that is exclusively my own!"

"We will be erased..." The giant face said what he cared most about.

The people on all sides didn't say anything more. He stared patiently at the giant face on the wall, waiting for the other party to give an answer.

After a while, the giant face made up its mind and asked again, "How do you want to cooperate?"
