Shameless Warlock

Vol 2 Chapter 209: Helena's whereabouts

Contrary to Xu Nan's expectation, this little rabbit, who looked very docile, was so irritable and aggressive in front of the larva of the Soulstealer. Its hind legs slammed on Akai's chest, and with this force, it jumped directly out, and there was a beautiful interception in the air-it swallowed the tadpole-shaped creature in one bite!

  

   The surrounding water tanks also made a slight noise, which even caused a certain degree of resonance.

  

   Although Super Spiritual Vision cannot interpret this emotion, Xu Nan can also faintly feel that this is a kind of instinctive fear.

  

   According to Akai, the mood swings of the ghosts are very, very small, especially when they are young, but the fear is strong as if the nose can smell it.

  

   This is the bloodline suppression between creatures.

  

   No wonder Akai said that rabbits are the natural enemies of soul-stealers.

  

   "Adult soul-stealers will be very afraid of rabbits, and will involuntarily tremble slightly when encountering rabbits; they will massacre rabbits near their own territory and refuse any similar life forms."

  

"And the larvae of the soulstealers are even worse. The rabbits often act like the most brave hunters in front of them. They can track the position of the larvae of the soulstealers within a certain range, and at the same time, when facing them, they occupy absolute Advantage."

  

   Akai stroked Feifei's head gently to calm it down:

  

"Because the larvae of the soul-stealers can parasitize, only the brains of humanoids and only the gray matter of the brains of humanoids can give them the necessary nutrients for transformation. Rabbits are not good enough. These disgusting tadpoles will find a chance to drill. When it reaches the rabbit’s head, it can’t eat anything. In the end, it’s hard to find enough gray matter to kill itself..."

  

  In the original world of the soul-stealers, Stephen Sang’s scholars discovered a large number of biological populations, but only those without rabbits.

  

   They entered into an in-depth study of this, only to find that the Soulstealer could not overcome their inherent fear of rabbits.

  

In the war of that year, Stephen Sang proposed the [Rabbit Project], which had a good effect against the army of soul-stealers. After all, even high-level soul-stealers could not overcome the fear or hatred of rabbits. .

  

   Once this tendency is manifested, it is easy to be recognized by people. In this way, the greatest advantage of the soul-stealers disappeared.

  

   It is said that the streets of Stephen Sang back then were full of bunny bunnies...and witches or wizards wearing bunny girl clothes.

  

   Although being like a rabbit doesn’t protect oneself from soul-stealers, people always believe that it can bring good luck.

  

  To this day, in some wizarding fields of Stephen Sang, rabbit-related symbols are considered to be signs of good luck. This is actually related to the invasion of the Legion of Soulstealers.

  

  ……

  

   Despite the weird and funny weakness of "fear of rabbits", the group of soul-stealers should not be underestimated.

  

   The most frightening thing is that they are always evolving.

  

They are like locusts or ghosts wandering between the stars. Wherever the army of soul-stealers goes, all the populations will only be extinct. Their bodies are taken away, their land is plundered, and their resources are exhausted. .

  

   After the existing population resources cannot satisfy the expansion of the group, they will launch an invasion of other worlds.

  

   This is an endless cycle.

  

   Those populations that have been parasitized by the soul-stealers, their species advantages will be inherited by the larvae of the soul-stealers to some extent.

  

   Some scholars believe that the so-called high-level soul-stealers are actually a genetic manifestation of this continuous optimization. If they are allowed to evolve, they will reach the form of "perfect creatures" in the process.

  

   All in all, this is a population that violates conventional life cognition, is extremely destructive, and has fantastic evolutionary potential.

  

   Now, the vanguard of the Legion of Soulstealers appeared in Stephen Sang.

  

   A big battle seems to be imminent.

  

   Xu Nan and Akai checked the water tanks in the underground square, and Akai used his authority to call in a group of black-robed wizards who had never been seen before to deal with the larvae of the ghost thief.

  

   and they continued to explore the deeper part of the underground plaza.

  

  Because they found a more hidden secret door here when they were counting the larvae of the soul-stealers!

  

   "Where does this lead?"

  

   Xu Nan looked at the entrance of the hidden tunnel with a little amazement.

  

   This place is actually located in the gap between two rocks. With his dark vision, he didn't notice anything abnormal.

  

   And just by relying only on hearing, Akai concluded that there was a secret door behind this, which made Xu Nan really suspect that the profession of the demon hunter and the thieves might be relatives.

  

   "Associate." Akay was obviously more calm.

  

   Xu Nan nodded. This judgment is reasonable and reasonable. They did not find traces of the existence of other people in Thomas's house, but since the Legion of Soulstealers wants to infiltrate Stephen Sang, Thomas must not be alone.

  

   There are so many larvae of the ghost thief here, Thomas is usually busy with his business, and he definitely can't handle it alone.

  

   Then the answer is ready.

  

   This road, with a high probability, is the road leading to the home of Thomas' associates!

  

   The two explored this secret passage alone, and about four black-robed wizards followed from a distance.

  

   This secret passage is much longer than the one leading to the underground square in Thomas's house. They walked for ten minutes and found nothing on the way.

  

  The ghost knows how these soul-stealers dug such a long underpass under Stephen Sang city without being discovered!

  

  Akai's face is ugly.

  

   Although he has only recently returned to the position of deputy captain of the law enforcement team, his responsibilities are still heavy due to the invasion of the city by foreign enemies.

  

   If it weren't for Xu Nan, maybe Stephen Sang was attacked by the thief, and no one would find out in advance!

  

   He riveted, holding his breath to move forward.

  

   After a while, the underpass in front finally appeared upward steps.

  

   Without hesitation, Akai rushed forward, kicking open the thick iron gate without saying a word!

  

   Soulstealers have a detached perception of danger. There is no need to cover up at this time, just go straight to it!

  

   boom!

  

   The iron gate was directly kicked out of a huge hole by Akai's terrifying power. Then, the senior demon hunter was like a tyrannosaurus, and he performed a good show of unarming the iron gate in front of Xu Nan.

  

  哐Dangdang!

  

   The sharp echo reverberates in the secret tunnel.

  

   Xu Nan followed, and after a closer look, he found that this was a wine cellar.

  

   Not far away is a row of precious wines and some ice cubes. Farther, there are more cabinets.

  

   "This architectural style..."

  

   Xu Nan reacted instantly.

  

   This is the basement of Lettuce Inn!

  

   "Miranda, there really is a problem!"

  

   Xu Nan took a deep breath.

  

   He recalled the unusual man "Toby" he had met before, and the various situations that Miranda and Thomas clearly knew. Things seemed to become more clear.

  

   Before, he wondered how Thomas locked onto Stephen Sang’s own spacecraft just after getting off the Queen.

  

   It seems that it was the information provided to him by the proprietress of Lettuce Inn.

  

   Miranda is very likely to be a high-level ghost stealer too!

  

   And Toby, the suspected epilepsy guy, probably didn't integrate well, leaving behind sequelae.

  

   "I'll go, I actually live in the den of the ghost thief these days..."

  

   Xu Nan is a little scared to think about it.

  

   They found a few separate rooms deep in the wine cellar, and indeed they found Toby, whom Xu Nan had met before, and another man of medium build.

  

   Both of them were tied to a cold stone pillar. There was a strange rune in the center of the room. The shape was very similar to that of the larva of the soul thief, but it was more complicated.

  

  嗖!

  

   A bright blue light flashed, it was Akai holding the scroll of [Death Detection Technique] and was determining the identities of these two people.

  

   Soon, the cyan light became a dazzling crimson!

  

   The scroll itself is even more ups and downs, sounding a sirens!

  

   This means that these two people are soul-stealers!

  

   Akai shook his eyebrows and put away the scroll.

  

   "They are all dead."

  

   "It is their own hands."

  

  Akai went up to check it, and frowned slightly: "They have been dead for a long time."

  

   "The one in the room on the left is very similar to [Back of the Head Sneak Attacker], so it should be him. I haven't seen the one on the right."

  

   Xu Nan recounted what he had seen in the lettuce hotel.

  

   Akai nodded: "You must find a way to catch that boss lady."

  

   At this time, the Paradise Lost system ushered in a welcome notification——

  

   [Your sharing task-the back of the head attacker has been completed! 】

  

  【Number of newcomers +1】

  

  【The blood affinity between you and Xie Yutong +2】

  

   The rewards are almost the same as before, except that blood affinity seems to unlock the bloodline resonance and provide a chance to provide a little benefit, Xu Nan did not feel any benefit.

  

   Sure enough, is it thankless to carry a trumpet?

  

   Right now he concentrated, and followed Akai to the cellar entrance.

  

  According to Akai’s plan, they will quickly sneak into the Lettuce Inn and cooperate with the law enforcement team to block the outside of the inn, and be sure to take down Thomas’ accomplices!

  

   But at that time, when the law enforcement team said that they had completed the blockade of the Lettuce Inn, two black-robed wizards ran over:

  

"vice captain!"

  

   "We found two people in the basement!"

  

   Akai was taken aback for a moment: "There is a basement?"

  

   "Isn't this the cellar?"

  

   A black-robed wizard nodded and said, "When a brother was searching just now, he found a more hidden secret door..."

  

   "Leave them alone."

  

  Akai was a little impatient: "Knock them out, tie them up and talk."

  

   "But..." The black robe wizard hesitated.

  

   "What's the matter?" Akai growled irritably, "Say something!"

  

   "Yes!" The black-robed wizard gave a shock, and said quickly: "The two people are a bit special, and they won't take care of us when we ask."

  

   "But the detection spell shows that they are not soul-stealers!"

  

   Isn't it a ghost stealer?

  

   Xu Nan and Akai were a little surprised.

  

   "Take me over and see!"

  

   Akai forced to resist his unhappiness. The two followed the black-robed warrior around the cellar for a while, and found a small secret room.

  

   In the secret room, a black-robed wizard is waiting.

  

   There are high and low beds on the left side of the room, and the rest of the furnishings are very simple, but they are very clean.

  

A plainly dressed woman sits on the edge of the bed, her eyes are numb and absent, she doesn't know what she is thinking; beside her, stands a tall person who looks like a man, his whole body is wrapped in thick clothes , Looks a little bloated and funny.

  

   As soon as Akai came in, Xu Nan noticed his abnormality.

  

   His body instantly became extremely stiff.

  

   After a while, he relaxes, his voice is extremely low:

  

   "You actually fell to the point of cooperating with the thief?!"

  

   "Do you know what you are doing?"

  

   It sounded that his anger was already bursting, but he didn't know why, facing this woman and that man, he actually forcibly endured it.

  

   The two black-robed wizards took a look at A Kai, and then stepped back with interest.

  

   Only the strange duo, Xu Nan and Akai are left in the room.

  

   Xu Nan did not leave, not because he was interested in the gossip between A Kai and this person he obviously knew, but because the Paradise Lost system refreshed the notification again——

  

   [Your shared mission-Helena's whereabouts has been completed! 】

  

  【Number of newcomers +1】

  

  【You have promoted new recruits three times, you will get a chance to feed back! 】

  

   [Blood affinity between you and Xie Yutong +3 (currently: 6)]

  

  【The blood affinity between you and Xie Yutong is greater than 5 points, the first phase of blood resonance will automatically unlock! 】

  

   [Your insight level is permanent +1]

  

  ……

  

   These dazzling information Xu Nan naturally couldn't digest it all at once.

  

   But the mission of Helena's whereabouts has been completed is an indisputable fact.

  

   He doesn't believe that Xie Yutong can find Helena by working in Roger's Tower of Elements, so there is only one possibility left: this ordinary-looking and shabby woman in front of him is the legendary taboo alchemist Helena!

  

   And the guy who was wrapped in clothes is her son, an alchemy doll named "Little Sun God"!

  

  Akai seems to know both of them.

  

   Facing his anger, the woman finally recovered.

  

   She looked at Akai blankly, her chapped lips moved slightly:

  

   "So, what are you going to do with him?"

  

  Akai glanced at the tall figure beside her, his expression became very tangled, but he quickly said:

  

   "Follow me, this time I will really protect you."

  

   The woman laughed and said:

  

   "This time? Really? Do you think I still believe you?"

  

   "That year, after you kicked me out of the house, I didn't have any expectations of you..."

  

   Akai quickly walked up ~www.readwn.com~ grabbed the woman's thin shoulders, and stared at her:

  

   "Listen to me, Helena!"

  

   "The nonsense is over, I don't know how much you have been wronged in the past, but this time, you really got into trouble!"

  

   "All the alchemists are looking for you, you can't keep hiding!"

  

   "Only I...I can help you."

  

"follow me……"

  

   There was a plea in his voice.

  

   "How can you help me?"

  

   Helena sneered: "Everyone wants to know the secret of God's alchemy?"

  

   "Can you stop everyone?"

  

  Akai was silent.

  

   "I can try." he said.

  

   "As long as you give me one chance."

  

   "A chance to make up."

  

   There is a rare expression of tenderness on his firm face.

  

   Helena ignored him.

  

   She just gently held the robot wrist of the doll next to her, and sighed lowly:

  

"That's too late."

  

   "Brother..."
