The Tale of Hero Alice's Social Death

Chapter 360 Eighteen

With the help of her status as the princess of the Gryffindor Kingdom, Alice quickly contacted the figure factory she needed—it was the KG factory that Collins had mentioned before. This figure factory has a special category of wooden figures. It's just that the number of such figures is relatively small, but the quality in this aspect is definitely the best in the industry.

In fact, Andusia's figured body was produced by the KG factory, so Collins would think that the Andusia that Alice gave to Lilith was a figure from the KG factory—just because of Andusia's The posture is different from all Xiaoguang figures produced by KG factory, so he didn't take this guess seriously.

With the brand of wooden figures, Alice naturally handed over the task of engraving Xiaoguang figures to KG factory. She sent the living wood to Catherine directly by express delivery, and asked Catherine to help her arrange these things. After all, Catherine is better at how to contact these companies.

Alice almost forgot that Catherine's position is the head of the Guards of the Kingdom of Gryffin—no way, Catherine is so easy to use, basically nothing can trouble her, Catherine herself has considerable power , plus she can pull the tiger skin of the princess Alice as a banner, and she will be more efficient in doing things.

According to the news sent back by Catherine, the KG factory has agreed to help Alice make figures, and because of Catherine's request, the KG factory will help Alice make her figure within a week with the fastest efficiency and the best quality. The required figures are manufactured, and the materials provided by Alice are guaranteed not to be damaged.

There is no way, the matter of materials is what Alice has instructed. After all, there is only one piece of living wood. If it is scrapped, she has no way to cheat another piece from the tree people, so let Catherine warn the KG factory. Brace yourselves to make sure you don't make any mistakes.

After entrusting the work of the living wood figure, Alice began to study the "pollution roulette" in her hand-this prop is indeed made with the power of the devil, although the name is serious, but The appearance of the props is still hard to describe.

Collars, in fact, can be regarded as a relatively trendy decoration in a sense. Like what Alice saw on the magic net before, the few hot girls who walked with Xilu wore them around their necks. The collar, let alone, looks pretty cool.

It’s the pollution roulette collar. I don’t know why there are several love patterns on it, which makes the collar look more sensual all of a sudden. Alice feels that if she wears this thing on her body, it’s really out of style. take.

"And this 'rule breaker' skill... is really tricky. Although I have tried my best to limit its destructiveness when holding it with my right hand, I still can't completely remove this passive skill."

Alice frowned as she looked at the collar held by her right hand and the black magic mist emanating from it—when she held the pollution roulette with her right hand, she had absolute control over the item power, so she tried to control the collar's "rule breaker-magic" skill.

But unfortunately, this passive skill is like the underlying code. Although Alice has reduced its influence to a small range as much as possible, it still cannot completely eliminate this effect. Until now, Alice feels that the people around her The magic power is a little unstable, as if it might be destroyed by this ability at any time.

But at least, the surrounding magic power still maintains the way the magic power should be, and has not been directly destroyed by this skill, turning into that kind of incomplete pollution magic power-if the original pollution ability is 100%, then the current item The pollution ability of the air pollution control system has been suppressed to about 10%, which is already the limit.

"I originally wanted to bring this thing to Lacey and Christine, but before that, I still have to let it play its final role."

Alice originally planned to send this thing together with the living wood, and asked Lacey and Christine to study it. The two of them should have reached a bottleneck in researching the air and magic power of the devil world. This thing may be able to Give them a little help.

Lacey is a senior alchemist who has a very deep understanding of the nature of magic power and materials, and Christine has a much more proficient mind power transcendence technique than herself, and can analyze this "pollution roulette" in depth. When something is in their hands, it is definitely more researchable than in Alice's own hands.

It's just that it can't be sent back for the time being, because Alice realized that this thing was specially buried in the territory of the tree people, and there must be a plan for it. Moreover, such an important thing is placed there, presumably There is also some means to monitor the whereabouts of this collar.

That being the case, then Alice should bring this thing with her first, maybe that person will soon find that the "pollution roulette" he placed has disappeared, and then take the initiative to look for it——Alice is very fond of placing this thing People are very interested, after all, this thing is a prop made by the power of the devil.

Putting this thing in the tree-human territory, trying to turn that area into an environment similar to that of the demon world... It's impossible to simply have enmity with the tree-human race, right?Alice felt that she might be able to dig out some more powerful information.

However, if she waits on the sidelines with this thing, Alice will find that... she is temporarily free again.

Now, what Alice has to do is to wait—wait for the KG factory to get the handle ready and then exchange Andusia back, and wait for Shilu to find out the guy who stole "Shadow of the Demon King" from the thief circle. The guy who was waiting to set up a pollution roulette in the Treant territory came to him.

"It will take a week for the figurine, and more than a week for Xilu, I don't know how long it will take for the last guy to come to the door... I didn't expect that I fell into a situation with nothing to do again. "

Alice scratched her head in embarrassment, finally turned into a sigh, sat up from the bed, then walked to the edge of the desk, sat down on the chair, opened the crystal brain on the desk, and... opened the magic net game.

No way, although it seems like a waste of time, Alice really has nothing else to do now, although she really wants to quickly solve all the messy things in the Ryan Kingdom, but now she can only kill time , while waiting for the arrival of clues.

"I hope Xilu can bring me good news...Although I instinctively feel that the guy who stole the "Shadow of the Demon King" is related to the guy who tried to ally with the demon clan, but to put it bluntly, it's just a guess."

Looking at the login interface of the game, Alice remembered the matter of the pollution roulette again, "Speaking of which, the pollution roulette is also a creation of the power of the devil, and it has something to do with the devil... Could this matter also have something to do with it? The previous two things are related."

Chapter 360: When Will You Learn To Interpret Memories?

"Alice! There's news from Xilu!"

After Alice had nothing to do for three days, Lilith dialed Alice's mobile phone and brought Alice a bit of unexpected news, "She found a magic power fluctuation and the magic power in your magic crystal is completely A matching thief, and more importantly, that thief was indeed in Icarus City a few months ago!"

This did not occur to Alice. She originally thought that the first thing to be completed should be the figure at the KG factory, and the progress of Xilu's investigation may have to wait for a period of time after the figure is completed. No news. Thinking that it's only been four days, Xilu already has a clue.

But that’s right, it takes so much time to make a figure, and Xilu’s finding someone has a certain element of luck. If luck is so good that it explodes, maybe you can find a thief that matches the magic power fluctuations that day. So it is not impossible to find the target in four days.

The fluctuations in magic power match exactly, and they did appear in Icarus City where the Royal Magic Tower is located a few months ago. From this point of view, the person Xilu found is indeed very suspicious, because fluctuations in magic power are similar to fingerprints in this world. , is a feature that is difficult to replicate.

Afterwards, Alice's LINK received some information from Lilith. These information were collected by Shilu immediately after finding the target. Not only was the target in the Thieves Guild, but even his reality The real identity was also dug out.

Although the thieves concealed their information very well, there were many thieves under Lilith, and Xilu called them all up. It was relatively easy to find out the identity of a thief—especially this thief seemed to have nothing to say. It's not very strict, and often confides something when drinking.

"Kanrat, a 32-year-old male, appears to be a very ordinary programmer. He is humble in the company. His only bad habit is drinking, and the wine is not very good."

Alice looked at the photo displayed on the crystal computer - in the photo was a middle-aged man who had tidied himself up fairly, with a clean shaven beard and a suit, it should be a photo of a passport, no matter how he looked at it Just a middle-aged office worker, not like a thief who works in the shadows.

However, in this information, there are many evidences of his activities as a thief, including the overlap between some of his usual business trips and the range of activities of some thieves, and the frequent extra funds of unknown origin in his account. The exception shows that he is secretly active as a thief.

And Xilu also investigated some interesting things, that is, a few months ago, there were a few relatively large transfers in Kanrat's account, but in-depth investigation found that there was no trace of the investigation, even the transfer The amount is not clear, but after several transfers, Kanrat has a lot more available funds.

Xilu speculated that the money was the reward sent by the employer after stealing "Shadow of the Demon King". There is a trace that has been completely untraceable.

Even Xilu, who leaned against Lilith, the princess of the Ryan Kingdom, couldn't find any clues. It seems that the guy who erased the transaction record has a lot of background-this is in line with Alice's previous suspicion that the gang of princes and princesses It's a pity that she herself ruled out all the suspicions of princes and princesses.

In addition, Kanrat often said some words that others could not understand after drinking. According to the information Xilu got from other populations, many things Kanrat said after drinking were related to some thieves missions. They are inextricably linked, and the completion locations of these thieves' missions are basically related to the location of Kanrat.

Therefore, the suspicion of Kanrat stealing the book "Shadow of the Demon King" has been infinitely magnified. It is basically certain that he is the one who stole the book "Shadow of the Demon King". "Shadow of the Demon King", and in connection with the previous transactions whose records have been erased, I am afraid that there is a powerful behind-the-scenes mastermind behind Kanrat.

"What we currently suspect is that it may be related to some nobles. If those nobles want to overthrow their father's throne and seize power, it seems to make sense."

The object of Lilith's suspicion is those nobles - no matter which world it is, people's ambitions cannot be stopped. If there are some nobles who unite to deal with the king, then whether it is uniting the demons, stealing the forbidden spell Behaviors such as enhancing one's own combat effectiveness seem to make sense.

When Alice heard Lilith's words, at first she also wondered if some nobles from the Lane Kingdom united to usurp the throne, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt something was wrong.

The combination of demons, "Shadow of the Demon King", and pollution roulette, all these situations are connected together, which always makes Alice feel that if the mastermind behind these things is all the same person, then it is not so much his goal. The throne, or rather, his goal is more like... the Demon Race?

He wanted to let the demons enter the human world, stole the book of forbidden spells that could create a demon king, and installed pollution sources that could transform the environment into a demon world. No matter how you think about it, many actions do not seem to be for the purpose of seizing the throne. , on the contrary, they all have something to do with the Demon Realm, the Demon Race, and the Demon King.

"If Andusia is here, maybe you can ask her opinion, after all, she is a senior demon king."

Alice scratched her head in distress, and was also a little depressed that Andusia was not by her side—however, the next two days were weekends, and Lilith didn't have to go to school, so with her character of a house girl, she probably stayed there most of the time. In the house, Alice had no way of sneaking in to talk to Andusia.

However, since Lilith suspects those nobles, Alice doesn't seem to have any reason to refuse. Anyway, it is Lilith's job to investigate the nobles, and she doesn't need to contribute. Presumably for Lilith, investigating a few nobles is nothing. Difficult thing.

Well, it's better for Alice to investigate the most recent clues first:

"So, can you catch that Canrat? I want to get some information from him directly."

"Ask for information from him? I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. The thieves are likely to conduct transactions only through the Thieves Guild. They haven't contacted the client, so basically they can't ask for any information."

Lilith was a little worried, "And I'm worried that he will tell us some false information to fool us, which may actually affect our investigation."

"Don't worry about this, I have a way to prevent him from telling false information."

Alice chuckled—just kidding, although she still doesn't know how to check and accurately modify the other party's memory, it's still okay to directly insert something like "Don't dare to tell lies in the next few minutes" into his memory questionable.

The human brain is like a program, and the memory is encrypted codes. Although Alice can't understand these codes, she can directly insert an unencrypted code into it-the brain can also process these unencrypted codes. .

Therefore, even if Alice can't read those memory garbled characters, and doesn't know how to write the memory she wants to insert into garbled characters, she can also achieve simple control behavior by directly inserting non-garbled characters.

Chapter 370 But it's useless

Lilith's efficiency is high. As the princess of the Lane Kingdom, even if she is not the heir, she can wield considerable power, and Kanrat, who is her target, is just an ordinary city in the Lane Kingdom. It is impossible for ordinary office workers to have the power to resist.

Of course, if Kanrat is willing to go all out, he can also use the skills of those thieves to find a way to escape from the guards, but if he does that, he will basically spend his life on the wanted list. He didn't have that kind of courage, so he had to be arrested obediently.

Before he was arrested, he was still trying to find out what crime he had committed from the mouth of the guards, and he seemed completely unaware of who he had offended—until he was taken to Icarus City overnight, and in the second After seeing Xilu, Lilith and Alice walking into the interrogation room this morning, he seemed to understand something.

Although he doesn't know who Xilu is, he certainly knows the faces of Lilith and Alice. Thieves must understand hot information. His princess will be remembered by him as a matter of course.

Lilith, the princess of the Lane Kingdom, came directly to her door, so she must have committed a crime that would be taken seriously by the Lane Kingdom—and if he had committed any crimes that deserved to be investigated by the Lane Kingdom’s family It is probably because the theft of the book "Shadow of the Demon King" was revealed.

But Kanrat still couldn't figure it out. He had already performed the No Trace Technique on the scene, erasing all traces of the scene. It should be impossible for the guards to find any clues through on-site investigation. What clues such as fingerprints, footprints, and even sweat were dug up in the place where the traceless technique was cast.

Although most of the thieves have given up the non-trace technique, which is only used for thieves, there are still many thieves who know the non-trace technique. How do they target themselves?

Kanrat would never have imagined that what exposed his clues was a gift from a children's book on the bookshelf when he performed the traceless technique-the traceless technique can indeed wipe out almost all people and humans. The relevant clues, unfortunately, are the magic power of the no trace technique, which cannot be removed by the no trace technique, just like an eraser cannot erase the handwriting on one's body.

"Looking at your expression, you should know why we are looking for you, right?"

Lilith sat on the chair opposite Canrat and looked at the office worker who was handcuffed by magic stones. From the surface, Lilith really couldn't tell that he was a thief. The thief's ability to disguise really made him She was a little surprised, they seemed to be able to easily switch to an image that had nothing to do with thieves, just like Xilu.

"...Is it because of the theft of the forbidden spell?"

Kanrat knew that his affairs must have been exposed. Although the thief betrayed his employer, it would make it difficult to get along in the Thieves Guild in the future, but if he continued to resist, he might not be able to leave this interrogation room today out.

Although the two princesses, Lilith and Alice, have good reviews on Monet, netizens also love them very much, and there are even shouts like "Alice is my wife" - but Kanrat But it was very clear that this group of people belonged to the royal family after all, and they would definitely dare to do such things as murder and silence in high positions.

"It's good to know, tell me, who exactly did you help steal that "Shadow of the Demon King"? The effect of this forbidden spell is extraordinary. It is a forbidden spell that summons the shadow of the devil. Dare to steal?"

Lilith patted the table in front of her, and assumed a posture of interrogation - in the eyes of others, Lilith's forced appearance was not only intimidating, but also a bit funny, but knowing Lilith's identity In the eyes of Kanrat, who was doing what he did, this action really made him sweat all over his back.

However, Kanrat did not speak immediately, but was silent for a while, thinking whether he could fabricate some false news to deceive Lilith and Alice.

The reason why Canrat dared to do this was mainly because Canrat knew that the secrecy of the Thieves Guild's magic net was terrifying.

Because the original founder has died, there is no real manager of the Thieves Guild Magic Net, and all the information that is set as private in it is completely closed, and will not be used by anyone other than the entrusting parties. method to see.

Therefore, even if Canrat uttered false information, he was absolutely confident that the people in front of him could not verify the truth of what he said through the Thieves' Magic Net.

"You guy, don't you want to make up something to deceive us?"

Lilith is also a very shrewd person, she was able to win over so many subordinates to work for her, obviously not because of her nerdy hobby, after seeing Kanrat's silence, she immediately realized something, "That's right, after all You should have received the mission from the Thieves Guild, even if you tell a lie, we have no way to verify it... Is that what you think?"

"..."

Kanrat's heart beat violently a few times. He really thought so, but he didn't expect Lilith to realize his thoughts so quickly. This group of royal families is really not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Of course, although Lilith guessed it right, she really couldn't verify the truth of what Kanrat said. Kanrat's plan in his heart remained unchanged. Even if Lilith didn't believe it, he would only say that. False information comes—unless Lilith is really insane, she will torture herself no matter whether she tells the information or not.

It's not that Kanrat hasn't considered telling the truth to save his life, but he knows very well that if he tells the truth, the revenge he will receive in the end will be more terrifying than Lilith's threat. If he couldn't get involved in the thieves circle, he might lose his life.

"Hmph, forget it, even if you tell false information, I really have no way to verify the authenticity."

Lilith frowned as she looked at Canrat's expression, then turned her head to look at Alice, "Alice, you said you have a way to make him unable to lie, so use it quickly if you have any tricks."

Can't lie?

Kanrat was stunned for a moment, and the first thing he thought of was Veritaserum and spiritual magic—the veritaserum in this world is a potion with spiritual magic properties, and the effect is actually similar to a relatively high-level potion. It is indeed possible to obtain spiritual magic by means of the royal family.

But Kanrat didn't panic, because he had already prepared for it - his body was inlaid with a bone that could isolate spiritual magic, which was custom-made by a senior alchemist at a high price. Most of the effects of spiritual magic can be immune, and its effect is not inferior to the ring of sanity.

This is just right, if they really fed him veritaserum, or used some spiritual magic to interfere with him, then he could pretend to be affected, and then tell the false information he had prepared—perfect.

Just when Canrat thought he had the perfect way to get out, he suddenly noticed Alice looking at him.

Then Kanrat knew nothing.

Chapter 370 Xilu: Probably an illusion

"Is this spiritual magic?"

Lilith looked at Kanrat who suddenly became expressionless and dull-eyed with some surprise, stood up and leaned out, approached Kanrat, waved his hands in front of his eyes, and then made a gesture to punch him As if hitting, he punched Kanrat hard, and finally stopped when he almost touched Kanrat's face.

If it was an ordinary person, he would have closed his eyes quickly because of instinct, but Kanrat was indifferent. When Lilith punched him, he didn't mean to close his eyes at all, but when Lilith took the fist away , just blinked because of the need of the eyes.
