Civilization Guardian Front

"This item stays with you for now..."

As he said that, Chios pointed to the 【Eye of the Sentinel】 on the tea table next to the sofa seat.

"I'd be very upset if it got lost or damaged by accident, so do you know what I mean?"

Seeing his cold expression, Aisha didn't dare to think too much, and quickly replied seriously:

"Yes, Lord Chios."

Although she didn't know exactly how the spherical crystal worked, combined with Chios's serious attitude at this time, and the fact that Phryni was not at the headquarters after taking out the object not long ago, she can understand to some extent that it should be Magic props with powerful detection capabilities.

Not only is the detection range large enough to cover the entire Palace of the Night, but it can also distinguish the strength of each person...

Such items must be extremely precious.

At least, Aisha didn't know who in this city had the ability to make magic items of the same level.

Perhaps, the "Almighty" has a chance to do it...

"I will keep it with me at all times as my second life protection."

"very good."

The corners of Chios' mouth rose, and he nodded to express his satisfaction with the woman's answer.

The right to use [Eye of the Sentinel] is bound to the person who owns it, and he can control it remotely with a single thought.Give it to Aisha, and she will be able to remotely detect Sophellini's movements at any point in time.

As long as Aisha continues to be active in Happy Street, all first-level adventurers who come to this block will be exposed to Chios and then marked on the map.

As time goes by, no matter how secretive the whereabouts of Phryni's fearful toad at night, no matter how many secret rooms he hides in, he will eventually lock them one by one.

With this method, it is safer and more concealed than Chios visiting Happy Street to explore in person.

(Want to play hide and seek?)

Then let's witness his ability as a "ghost".

"I have to get up early tomorrow, so I'll go back first."

The purpose of this trip has been achieved, and Chios, who has no other reason to stay in the night capital, got up from his office chair, put on his cloak again, and walked towards the door when he came.

"Wait... please wait a moment."

Hearing the words of the woman behind him, the young man stopped in his tracks.

Seeing Chios turn his head back, Aisha showed a hint of hesitation on her face, and did not say the words that came to her lips.

Until Chios lost interest and was about to leave, she finally said:

"Actually, our Ishtar family's trump card, there is another..."

"Sanjo Yeharuhime, that girl's magic ability is very special. It can increase a person's strength by one level. Even Phryni of Lv.5 can be compared to a Lv.6 adventurer under her magic enhancement."

"Oh? This is unexpected..." Chios raised his eyebrows in surprise, but there was actually no fluctuation in his heart.

"However, from the way you look, you seem to care about her. Aren't you afraid that I will find this girl and kill her with a sword?"

Is it so easy to see...

Aisha smiled wryly to herself.

"Chun Ji's abilities should be useful to you, it would be too wasteful to kill her..." Realizing that it was impossible for her to hide her thoughts from Chios, she simply stopped hiding and gave a straightforward answer.

"Besides, unlike Phryni, Chun Ji has no sense of belonging to our family, let alone loyalty. With your power, even if you kidnap her by force, Ishta-sama will not dare to do anything to you... "

After a pause for a few seconds, she went on to add:

"Chun Ji looks good, and besides, she is still a virgin so far."

As a fighting whore who is honest about her own desires, Ayesha does not take chastity very seriously, but this does not prevent her from understanding that some men have serious cleanliness in their hearts, and the plot is strong enough to be used as a bargaining chip at a critical moment.

"So it makes sense..."

Chios looked indifferent, noncommittal.

For the known information, if it is not necessary, he naturally does not need to be surprised.

The sword finger drew a rune of light, and crushed it with palms together, and the optical camouflage quickly enveloped the whole body.Chios pushed open the thick door leading to the outdoor terrace, and in the blink of an eye, he completely disappeared from the vision of the woman in the room.

Now, Aisha, who has never received a clear response from the young man, can't wait any longer.

"She's in the most conspicuous brothel on Flower Street, please."

The woman's voice is not loud, but full of concern and worry.

next second...

She saw that on the balcony corridor guardrail, due to the slight discrepancy caused by the interlacing of light and shadow, the silhouette of a human figure flashed in an instant, slightly turning her face.

"I see, go to sleep at ease."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Gliding from the fourth floor of the tower to the top of the bridge pillars, Chios quickly ran to the other side of the bridge.

Swish!

Falling against the wind, the toes of the front feet are a little on the watchtower, and the whole person uses his strength to jump directly to the top of the southern wall. Like a professional diver, he spreads his arms to increase the wind resistance, and after two laps in the air with a gorgeous rolling movement, he returns to a vertical posture Bend your knees to absorb the force, and before the shock has fully acted on your limbs, the accumulated elastic potential energy will explode in one breath, and you will use your strength to rush forward.

The left palm rests on the wall stack in front of you, using this as a fulcrum, let the force that changes the direction of action drive the body to turn over, draw a perfect semi-circular arc, and jump to the outside of the city wall.

The coherent movement completed within half a second in one go completely digested all the excess impact that might cause damage to the body.

The soles of the suede boots stepped on the dagger hilt that was inserted into the wall and replaced the function of the ladder.

The two short blades, which were subjected to such a huge acceleration of gravity, were stuck in the gap and loosened due to the sharp shock, and were easily pulled out by the young man's backhand.

Steadily stepping on the stone pavement of Yedu Street, put away the dagger spinning at the fingertips.

"call..."

Chios tugged at the slightly messy cloak, raised his hand and moved the bangs on his forehead to the side, Xirun let out a light breath almost silently, and immediately walked towards the "Flower Street".

Three Wild Haruki...

Of course, it is impossible for Chios to not know about the vulpe who possesses the rare level-up magic "Magic Hammer".

For adventurers, the level gap, which seems like a natural barrier, can be temporarily bridged with just a few incantations, which sounds very tempting.If it is placed in the two families of Freya and Loki, it must be a very precious hole card...

However, that's because they have enough combat power to ensure the safety of the caster while enjoying the benefits of magic.

The Hestia family does not have the same conditions...

The nine members recruited a few days ago are all Lv.1 newcomers. The monsters at the upper level alone are enough for them to scramble, let alone the powerful enemies at the middle, lower and deep levels.

Take the "White Palace" that Chios is currently using as a training ground as an example. The weakest monster there has also reached the Lv.3 level. Already very close to Lv.4.

Even a second-level adventurer with rich exploration experience will die if he is not careful.

Now that Emma and the others have gone, it is purely to die in vain.

That being the case, Chios went deep into the labyrinth alone with a burden that has rare magic but no self-protection ability, so what if he can increase the level?

The extra strength has to be used to protect the opponent, and even because of looking forward and backward, it makes me even more unable to let go of my hands and feet to fight...

The course of action of a solo adventurer and a team of adventurers is fundamentally different from the very beginning.

The focus of team combat is to complement each other's deficiencies and minimize various defects as much as possible; the advantage of single-player action is to make a breakthrough and make full use of certain advantages.

Of course, a faction with many elites like the Loki family cannot be defined by a simple dichotomy, and is closer to a collection of the above-mentioned advantages.

In the final analysis, it is still a problem of the lack of mid-to-high-end adventurers on Chios' side.

According to his original plan, he planned to gradually squeeze out the residual value of this A-level family, and wait until the family team has been strengthened to a certain extent, before attacking the hidden trump card of the Ishta family.

"Troublesome woman..."

Chios can control his own words and deeds. Even if the will of the world implements urgent marking, he still has the confidence to hide his inner intentions and not disclose key information in advance.

As an attacker, it is very disadvantageous to fight at the opponent's home court and the number and strength are not dominant.

If the advantage cannot be guaranteed even in terms of intelligence, there is basically no need to fight this battle.

But with his ability, Rao couldn't control all the plot characters like marionettes.

Regardless of whether Ayesha is purely out of intention or affected by the interference of other things, when she mentions the existence of Chun Ji, the attention of the will of the world will definitely catch up quickly.

Maybe, starting tomorrow, Chun Ji's hiding place will no longer be the most conspicuous brothel in Flower Street, but will be moved to another place by the Ishtar family.Even now that his intention to assassinate Phryne has been exposed, it is not impossible for that toad to take Chun Ji away and forcefully bind her by his side.

After all, the will of the world has no reason to sit idly by, and Chios contributed to the incapacity of the Ishtar family at the "wrong" time.

That will cause a series of chain reactions to fate...

"Then, the only thing we can do is race against time and act before it responds."

Muttering these words, the young man secretly sighed.

He obviously didn't want to cause any commotion during this site survey, and he didn't make any mistakes during the whole operation. Seeing that he just needs to return to the manor, wipe off the night city smell left on his clothes, lie on the bed and close his eyes until dawn, It will end perfectly.

However, after one night, a woman of unknown origin suddenly appeared in the family, which couldn't be explained...

It is true that due to recent investment and acquisitions, Chios owns real estate in many streets and alleys of Orario, so it is not a big problem to hide a few women.But if they are not placed in the relatively safe Piliano Manor, the Ishtar family may take people back at any time.

"Wait..." Chios' eyes froze suddenly.

"Isn't there one nearby? Absolutely safe place..."

Indeed, if you put people there, you don't have to worry about getting lost again, and you can avoid the sight of Hestia and the family members.

Thinking about this, Chios suddenly quickened his steps.

...

Flower Street——

The streets full of oriental culture are spacious and bright, and lanterns are hung on the eaves of Japanese-style buildings.

On both sides of the road are planted "blue cherry blossoms" that come from the labyrinth and bloom regardless of the seasons.

The pale blue petals bathed in the moonlight are scattered and falling, and the women in kimonos and yukata actively embrace the guests who come here, and invite them to spend a good night together with a soft tone that is completely different from other places in Yedu.

Compared with the temptation of swaying dancers in desert regional culture, the elegance and beauty of priestesses in white robes around the Mediterranean style, the solemnity of nuns praying in Goethe Church, the enthusiasm and boldness of women in the northern snow country under thick clothes, and the grace of noble ladies in luxurious palaces Luxurious, even the strong stimulation of fighting whores...

The female geisha who have inherited the culture of the Far East show a budding inner charm.

The brothel directly run by the Ishtar family is located in the middle of the block.

Surrounded by cherry blossoms in full bloom, the six-story building is like the roof of a large hot spring club, which is hard to mistake.

Kick...

People who are immersed in the freshness brought by the exotic style will naturally not notice that the side door lock in the dark alley on the north side of the brothel was pried open by tools that are difficult to see with the naked eye.

Putting away the hook and screwdriver, Chios quietly pushed the door open and entered.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Perhaps it was because there were combat prostitutes stationed in the courtyard, and the difficulty of unlocking the side door of the Hefeng Prostitute House was not particularly high, at best it was quite satisfactory, and Chios successfully cracked it in less than 20 seconds.

Except for special orders, or one-way locks that can only be fixed with bolts from the back of the door, the structure of all locks that can be opened with a key is similar.

Hold the bottom of the lock hole with a screwdriver, turn it slightly to the left and right to find out the correct direction of rotation, maintain the slightly twisted angle with one hand, and at the same time touch the relatively slender hook deeply to the pin inside the lock.The purpose is to find the pins that are relatively tight and difficult to move, push the cutting points of the upper half of these pins to the reference line one by one, and then increase the force of the screwdriver to separate them one by one.

When the upper half of all the marbles are all pushed out of the lock cylinder, they can rotate along the direction to complete the unlocking.

No deep theoretical knowledge is required, only delicate touch and experience is enough.

(So ​​nostalgic...)

Chios couldn't help but think back to his student days. Although most of the parents of female classmates were more open-minded, especially their mothers, almost [-]% of them would become very friendly after meeting him.However, there are always a small number of people whose home access is particularly strict, and their parents either personally or send people to and from school to pick them up, so that they have almost no other opportunities to get along except for a short time at school.

The family situation is such that most girls don't have the courage to secretly play a key for their lover behind their parents' backs.So, after making a promise that he would definitely find a way to meet the other party, in order to give these poor caged birds a surprise, Kiost practiced the lockpicking skills.

To this day, when those girls were woken up by his kiss, and when they understood the reason, they were so moved that they wanted to elope with him immediately, Chios still remembers it fresh.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that stealth, rock climbing, and parkour have all been explored since then.

Of course, the superficial self-study before the age of 12 was just laying the foundation, and he really reached the field of specialization when he took over the operation of the winery and prepared to steal the secrets of winemaking from his peers.

Anyway, whether it was the appearance of the woman's parents who didn't know about it, or the reaction of the competitor who suspected that there was a commercial espionage inside the family after the fact, he felt sincerely happy.

Unexpectedly, an assassination operation could bring back so many interesting memories...

A wicked smile slowly emerged from the corner of Chios' mouth.
