Mystery: From Meeting Amon

Chapter 249 The Puppet Master
Lewis didn't think that there would be high-sequence powerhouses trying to participate in such things, so he was more careful and walked towards the back of the manor.

As the distance drew closer, Lewis heard a silent breathing and a slight footstep. Following the sound, he saw two people in cloaks in an inconspicuous corner.

One of them walked ahead to explore the way, as if he was trying to enter the manor, and the other hid behind a tree, looking like an old Yinbi who was greedy for life and afraid of death.

"As a Transcendent of the Destiny Path, if I'm prepared, it's almost impossible for me to encounter a sneak attack. This gives me a chance to attack first."

"This operation will go smoothly..." Lewis took out his pocket watch as a pendant, and performed a simple divination. Seeing the slow clockwise rotation, he suddenly felt relieved.

The next moment, Lewis imposed bad luck on the old Yinbi hiding behind the tree. After all, Sequence Five's ability is limited, and it is impossible to bestow bad luck on multiple people.

The trees around the manor cast terrible shadows under the moonlight, and the person who had been gifted with bad luck suddenly looked up at the sky. He raised his hand and looked at the owl that was trying to swoop.

"Gu..."

The owl only had time to utter half of its cry, its body seemed to be controlled by some force, and then it hit the tree trunk straight, and fell to the ground motionless.

Lewis was greatly shocked by the scene in front of him. It should not be two extraordinary people who came to make trouble, but just one person, but this person can control the puppet.

"Master Puppet, Sequence Five of the Seer Path, this kind of transcendent is very troublesome. If I fight head-on, I may die."

Lewis resolutely chose not to show up. Extraordinary people like Puppet Masters are very disgusting. They can manipulate a person's spiritual body threads and gradually turn a person into a puppet.

In the absence of external interference, the process of becoming a puppet is difficult to interrupt.

Lewis stayed away from the scene with lingering fear. Even if the divination said things would go well, he didn't dare to act casually. If the interpretation was wrong, he might face death.

Raising his head, Lewis saw that dark clouds began to gather in the sky, and lightning bolts landed on the hiding place of the 'Puppet Master'.

The strength of a "winner" depends on how much bad luck and luck he has accumulated.

Thinking of this, Lewis tapped four times on his chest, outlined the crimson moon and said silently: "The storm is above, I am your devout believer."

He didn't look back at the situation, after all, it wasn't a rational choice to put himself into it in order to find the truth.

The weather that night was not very good, and there seemed to be screams mixed with lightning and thunder.

Lewis stayed up almost all night, and sent off the nobles who attended the party early the next morning.

"Mr. Lewis, see you at the golf course." Greint greeted Lewis, and left the manor in a carriage.

Until almost all the nobles in the manor left, Lewis breathed a sigh of relief. Last night was not very peaceful. Fortunately, he escaped when he met the Puppet Master, otherwise he might have turned into a puppet last night.

Ikanser found Lewis with the magic mirror Adros in his arms. The skin on his upper body was black, and even his hair was burnt black. He walked over and reminded in a low voice:
"Mr. Lewis, an extraordinary person tried to sneak into the manor last night. He was accidentally struck by lightning and was seriously injured."

"Did anyone catch it?" Lewis asked calmly.

"He moved so fast that we couldn't catch up. I tried to use Adros to inquire about the purpose of that extraordinary man, and learned that he had some connection with Baron Zachary." Ikanser said calmly, the charred black on his body He was punished because he couldn't answer Adros' question.

Lewis frowned, looked at the magic mirror in front of him, and asked Adros:
"What is Baron Zachary's purpose?"

The mirror shook a bit, and the white font gradually emerged:

"It would be great to use the Transcendent to destroy this banquet. It would be great if he could successfully kill one or two nobles. He can immediately call the police and put all the blame on Lewis Harvey, and let him be in the next period of time. Prison time.

No one would believe a murderer. Even if the alternating current works well, it will definitely be stopped by the nobles. At that time, Baron Zachary will buy the patent for alternating current from Lewis Harvey at a very low price.

Even if he couldn't kill any nobles, Baron Zachary could still create a bastard, put the bastard on Lewis Harvey, and ruin his reputation.At this time, he appeared in the image of a good man and persuaded Lewis Harvey to join their group and share the benefits brought by AC. "

How despicable... Lewis sighed silently.

Afterwards, a problem surfaced on the mirror:

"Is Ikanser a person?"

Lewis glanced at Ikanser, whose body was scorched black, nodded and said, "Yes."

"The answer is correct."

Ikanser looked at Adros in puzzlement. For the second time, Adros asked Lewis a very simple question, so simple that it didn't seem like a question.

"Why do you always ask me so difficult questions?" Ikansen muttered sullenly, expressing his dissatisfaction with the magic mirror Adros.

The next moment, a row of white characters appeared on the mirror again:

"Because, it's interesting to see you unlucky. Hahaha..."

After the font appeared for a few seconds, it was erased, and another font appeared on the mirror again:
"Now it's my turn to ask questions.

My question is: have you ever eaten shit? "

I didn't intend to ask you a question at all. The despicable magic mirror actually answered the question without authorization... Ikansen looked at Lewis in bewilderment, and then looked back at the two teammates beside him, only to see the two teammates showing playful eyes.

Ikanser's pitch-black face actually turned red. He seemed to have experienced half a century of thinking, and he mustered up his courage and said, "No!"

"wrong answer!"

The next moment, a bolt of lightning landed on Ikanser, and Ikanser fell on the bluestone brick floor, spitting out black mist.

Behind him, one of Ikanser's teammates took out a bottle of potion from his pocket, poured it into Ikanser's mouth, and laughed convulsively from time to time.

"Tsk, it would be nice to admit that I have eaten badly, and I will be exposed after being punished." Lewis reluctantly got into the carriage, and the manor will be cleaned up by the housekeeper and servants.

As a rich man, he just needs to learn how to enjoy himself.Of course, enjoyment is also a science, just like nouveau riche will always be despised by nobles.

The carriage was driving on the bluestone brick ground, and Lewis was thinking about what to do next.

"The secret puppet master is still alive, it cannot be ruled out that he finds himself being approached by Yin Queen to kill me, I should try to deal with him.

Killing people in the manor might attract official attention, but not elsewhere. No one would know that the secret puppet master had been to the manor. "

　Some people still think this book is good. As a new author, I think it is very good.

　　Don't be pessimistic, everyone, 10,000+ words can still write the ending I want to write.

　　Besides, more than 60 words is still a reasonable number of words, and the first book of many authors rarely has more than one million words.
