Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

After receiving the emergency alarm from the No. [-] apartment on Lily of the Valley Street, the deacon Ikanser Bernard, who happened to be on duty that night, immediately led a group of people to set off, and everyone was equipped with a full set of "combat tools".Compared with other Orthodox churches, the official Extraordinary of the God of Steam and Machinery Church never lacks weapons that can sweep the audience, and their fighting style is closer to "demolition" - of course, this is what Emperor Roselle once said casually words that come out.

The expression on Ikanser's tough face was not good-looking. As a deacon, he was very clear about the fact that there was an informant from the Aurora Society in Apartment No. Just after the inspection, why did something happen all of a sudden?
Just in case, Ikanser brought the silver mirror with simple patterns, hoping from the bottom of his heart that there was no need to use it for this matter.

When Ikanser arrived at the scene, the plants outside Apartment No. [-] had returned to their original state, only becoming more lush and lush, as if the cold temperature at the end of October hadn't had any effect on them.The window of Room [-] was opened, and a few vines waved twice outside the wall, and then closed back.

Ikanser ordered the team members to disperse and put a few people in ambush around them. If anyone appeared to want to leave or enter the apartment building, they would immediately control them.

Ikanser himself went up the stairs, and all the rooms were quiet without any sound.

Mrs. Romano was standing in the doorway of Room [-], all by herself.

Ikanser stopped at the stairs: "Please prove your identity."

"My father's last words are 'May my daughter be strong forever', and the guarantor of the inheritance is Archbishop Horamick. Do I need to recite the creeds of the Church of the Mother Earth and the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery?"

In fact, the last sentence was the code word Mrs. Romano had agreed on this week. Ikanser nodded helplessly, as if he didn't hear Mrs. Romano's sharp tone: "So what's the situation?"

"There is a suspected member of the 'Psychological Alchemy Association' lurking in the apartment. He is a Beyonder of the 'spectator' pathway. I can't be sure whether he joined before or after moving in."

"Is he a resident of [-]?"

"No, the tenant of [-] has been targeted by the Aurora Society. The informant probably... you can use this 'viewer' to start the investigation. He had a fight with the tenant of [-]. My old bone I won’t be with you any more.”

"What about the residents of [-]?"

"She ran away."

Ikanser wanted to sigh. There were so many things to investigate, so it seemed right to bring that sealed artifact with him.

People who know about this sealed artifact basically only exist within the church, and Mrs. Romano doesn't know that her lies may be exposed by this sealed artifact in a matter of minutes.

Mrs. Romano walked to the door with her hands behind her back. Ikanser passed her by, entered Room [-], and saw the handsome young man on the ground.This person's whole body was wrapped in thick green vines, but his right eye was covered with an ointment of unknown material, emitting an earthy smell.

"Galvin Leples, do you have anything to say?" Ikanser turned on the kerosene lamp in the room, and the room finally got rid of the dark environment.

"Of course not," said the young man, whose yellow eyes were as bright as fine amber. "I won't tell, and I can't, sir."

"What information do you have about the person you fought against?"

"Female, 1.6 meters tall, pseudonym Luna Duboa, appearance is not clear whether there is camouflage, average body shape, blond hair and gray eyes." The young man's words were very smooth, and it seemed that he had already prepared a draft in his heart and was ready to tell Others, "She has the ability to manipulate light spots and the 'thief' pathway. I don't know if it comes from a magical item. You seem to be used to calling it a sealed item."

"Spot of light? Is it a spirit body?"

Galwin turned over with difficulty on the ground so that he could face the official Extraordinary above: "I don't know, sir, the existence of those light spots is far beyond the scope of my knowledge. But she was also injured. But it's a good opportunity, you better act fast."

Ikanser frowned. If Galwin's words are true, and if he finds out the trace now, he can indeed immediately dispatch people to catch the injured opponent. Even if Galwin's words are false, it is necessary to track down the wild Extraordinary It is always time to figure out what to do.

Ikanser immediately made a decision, took out the simple silver mirror from his arms, stroked the surface with his palm three times, and then asked: "Dear Arrods, my question is, this person who claims to be What is the current status of Luna Duboa's existence?"

There were slight ripples on the surface of the silver mirror, which spread out in circles, and then Ikanser saw something shiny emerging from the very center, and then, it was so violent that it seemed that the light of day erupted from above, and a searchlight was reflected in it. Ikanser's eyes—he couldn't see anything clearly.

After several minutes, the two people whose eyes were stung by the light slowly opened, and Galwin's eyes even lost focus, obviously already dazzled by the light.

What is this?Can't Arrodes see it too?
Ikanser, who found nothing, sighed in pain.

Esther was eating the packaged fried fish sticks. Although the light spot added a little energy by absorbing Galwin's fate, Esther's own consumption was still very high.While chewing the cold food, she was thinking about the conversation with Xiao Qi and Xiao Wu just now, and her whole body was full of low air pressure.

A sudden feeling of being watched made Esther subconsciously jump up from the ground, but that feeling disappeared quickly.

She turned to Xiao Qi who was squatting on the bedside table next to her: "It seems that they do have some means to track me down, but soon the lock disappeared again, do we need to transfer?"

"It's up to you. After all, you are the only one among the three of us who can do anti-divination." Xiao Qi said indifferently.

A layer of light spots floated out from Esther's body, drawing circles around the room in the air. A few minutes later, Esther waved her hand and gathered them back up.

"Something's not quite right."

"how?"

"I can't tell. The existence of that peeping didn't make me feel malicious, but it had an aura that made me uncomfortable."

Xiao Qi tilted his head, his black eyes flickered twice: "What is your spiritual intuition?"

Esther closed her eyes, sensing the vague feedback in her mind: "Staying has no effect, the other party's investigation was not successful."

"Then you just stay here." Xiao Qi narrowed her eyes, with a smile in her slightly hoarse voice.

"I feel more uneasy when you smile."

He said so, but Esther sat down and finished the remaining french fries before going into the bathroom.

As soon as she closed the door, the light in the bathroom dimmed, and a faint blackness emerged from the air, and the feeling of being watched was extremely strong in an instant.

Two lines of blood-red writing appeared on the mirror in front of Esther: "Do you know where your master is now?"

what is this?Haunted?Ambience hotel?It makes people feel like walking into an immersive script.

After thinking wildly, Esther looked around, but didn't notice anything else.Suddenly her spiritual intuition was slightly touched, and Esther subconsciously asked, "Becklund?"

The bloody words faded, and after ripples appeared on the mirror, silver characters reappeared: "Okay. According to the principle of reciprocity, it's your turn to ask questions."

It took several seconds for Esther to react: "If I didn't answer just now, will there be punishment?"

"Yes."

Then the weird atmosphere in the bathroom disappeared, and the mirror was empty, with no words left.

Only then did Esther come to her senses, she reached out and tapped the mirror: "Wait! What kind of question was that just now!? I didn't say that this is what I wanted to ask, but you explained it clearly!"

This is simply cheating.

Of course, Esther didn't get a response, and the strange being had already left quickly after answering her rhetorical question.

Esther was left with question marks all over her head in the bathroom.

After getting up from the bed in a daze, Richie yawned big.

Then I saw Mrs. Romano standing by his bed with a gloomy face, staring at him condescendingly.

"Mrs. Romano!? Why are you here! It's scary!" Rich almost fell off the bed, because he was so flustered that he was rolled up under the quilt and couldn't break free for a while.

"Don't worry, you've skipped all your classes today."

"What? Why do I have to skip class? I still have papers due today!" Rich kicked hard in surprise, even the quilt and others were thrown to the ground, but he finally crawled out from the warmth of the quilt.

Only then did Richie notice the dim yellow sky outside, and the room was slowly sinking into darkness.

"How long have I been asleep!?"

"One night at a time. Because I was afraid that you would fall asleep like this, I used some herbal water that can stimulate the spirit." Mrs. Romano said so, raised the small watering can in her hand and sprayed Rich's face twice, A scent mixed with peppermint and many other plants rushed into Rich's nostrils, making him sneezed violently.

"Okay, okay! Am I awake? Please stop spraying!" Rich squeezed his nose tightly with one hand, and vigorously fanned the air in front of him with the other, trying to dissipate the strange smell Faster, and he was almost in tears after smelling it.

"Anyway, just wake up."

Rich didn't notice Mrs. Romano's emotional strangeness, but complained: "So what about Gal? He said he would call me on time this morning, and go to the campus with me for class!"

Mrs. Romano walked out with her hands behind her back: "He's gone."

"Leaving? Why, he still owes me a glass of Jin Langqi, why did he just leave?"

Mrs. Romano's back paused, and she turned her head, showing an unprecedented kind smile: "Noen and Luna have also left, and they will not come back."

Rich's hands that were rubbing the back of his head froze in mid-air, his wide-open eyes were full of confusion and doubt: "Mrs. Romano, have I, have I been asleep for so long? What happened..."

Your good friend cast a spell on you, "with great mercy" to make you sleep through everything - of course Mrs. Romano couldn't say such words, Rich is just an ordinary person, even the goddess of the earth The believers of the church cannot find much assistance from other orthodox churches in Backlund, so the less they know, the better.

So Mrs. Romano shook her head.

"Don't ask, Rich. It's normal for people to come and go."
