miss mist go with the flow

"Then—" Adams hesitated for a moment, but still made up his mind to ask, "Where's Nora?"

"You really have a wicked heart." Sirin mocked, "You already know that the other party is a succubus, so you still refuse to curb your desire?"

"I just want to know her ending." Adams said, "For a person who has lost a loved one in middle age, it is a wonderful thing for a withered heart to revive again. You two still Young, I can't understand my current mood, I am not dominated by lust, I just want to give this beautiful dream an ending."

You two are still young...

Amy rubbed her fingers, her words sounded quite guilty.

She and Sirin should both be quite young in mentality, but it's hard to elaborate on their physical age.

"It's beautiful, isn't it driven by desire?" Sirin said, "Let's stop talking about this topic, let's get back to business, where is the cemetery of the Iris family? The target, maybe the relevant layout has been made, we have to investigate."

"The cemetery is not in Baita City, but in Linghua City." Adams said, "Linghua City is the birthplace of irises. If you want to find it, you two may need me to lead the way."

Amy smiled slightly when she heard this.

This person still wanted to take the opportunity to break free from the chains and regain his freedom.

"Can't you just tell us the detailed address?" Sirin said.

"How can you easily disclose the address of such a treasure land where the leylines gather?" Adams said with a look of surprise, his eyes widening, "Besides, you have always suspected that I am related to the abyss monster, and I am also suspicious of your true identity! If you are The monsters sent me to deceive me, so if I said the address so carelessly, wouldn’t I be fooled by you?”

Sirin smiled, "Interesting, your remarks are just to let us let you go, right?"

Adams smiled slightly and said: "Communication should be based on an equal attitude. After all, I am the Earl of the Empire. You have been talking to me with the attitude of censoring suspects. It is really disrespectful to me."

"I need to reiterate that in the eyes of the dark guards, the subjects of the investigation are treated equally, regardless of their noble status." Sirin said, "However, since you are willing to cooperate with our investigation, it is not impossible to temporarily release your imprisonment."

"Huh..." Adams took a long breath and sighed: "That was really helpful, the state of losing freedom is really tormenting."

Sirin walked towards Adams, but with her right hand behind her back, she made a few simple tactical gestures towards Amy.

Amy roughly understood. Does this mean "ready for battle"?

Understood, Miss Swordsman probably saw something wrong.

Sirin used Qianfeng Sword Power earlier, which consumed too much power, and her current state has not fully recovered, so she was asked to help.

Amy silently inspected her state. Her magic power and battle energy were at full capacity. The previous consumption had already been recovered. The weakened version of Qianfeng Jianshi could be used, and the rest of the spells were fine.

"Before I untie these chains, I still have some questions I want to get answers from Your Excellency." Sirin said as she walked, "Please rest assured that it has nothing to do with the abyss monsters, it's a different question."

Adams was quite calm and said, "Ask."

Sirin said: "Is the activity of the Black Spider group related to your lord?"

"Black spider?" Adams froze for a moment, then asked, "Who is that?"

He frowned and thought for a while, "Is there an officer with this name under my command?"

Sirin stopped her pace, didn't speak any more, just looked at Adams quietly.

When Adams saw her act like this, the expression on his face froze.

The silence between the two sides lasted for nearly 20 seconds. Adams suddenly sighed and said, "I didn't expect it to be exposed in such an insignificant place. As expected of the imperial guards, the mind is really delicate."

Sirin's expression remained calm, "Your Excellency, or should I call you Soul Reaper? The feeling of stuffing yourself into this body but being unable to leave is amazing, isn't it?"

"I didn't expect this waste lord to have such a ruthless side." Adams had a dumbfounding expression on his face, "After he noticed something wrong with his body, he locked himself here, as if he didn't intend to live at all. go out."

Meow meow meow?

Amy was full of question marks, why did these two people start playing charades again, what do you mean?

Sirin looked back at Amy, and said, "Scott said that the succubus had another companion, who went somewhere later, here it is."

"This is an extremely rare soul-snatcher in the abyss, a spirit monster that can absorb souls, deprive memories, and occupy other people's identities. It is the most dangerous spy. It is difficult to detect it without using its power monster identity."

Adams had a bitter face, "You are not an ordinary secret guard, are you? This knowledge should be extremely secretive in the human world."

He didn't deny Sirin's statement, which was tantamount to admitting his identity as "Soul Reaper".

"It seems that in the eyes of Dolores, you, an extremely rare soul reaper, are not as precious as the succubus Nora." Sirin said lightly, "During the time we were dealing with the succubus, your highness did not Didn't come to save you, didn't even tell you our identities."

The Soul Reaper fell into silence, and after a long time, he struggled to speak: "Your Highness must have deep meaning in what she did."

"Why bother to find excuses for her?" Sirin said, "Admit your identity as an abandoned child, you were abandoned by her, and thrown away like garbage."

The Soul Reaper gritted his teeth, and squeezed out a few words from his lips: "I don't allow you to insult His Highness! It's me who is too stupid to live up to His Highness's expectations!"

"It's really stupid." Sirin sneered, walked aside, and shook the chains connecting the walls and iron hoops.

With her movements, dense magic spells emerged from the chains and iron hoops, turning on and off one by one, much like a row of dense breathing lamps.

"The Soul Reaper who threw himself into the net is a living research sample. When we entered the core area of ​​the abyss world 300 years ago, we never caught a living Soul Reaper. Your existence will definitely fill the gaps in the monster data. page."

The Soul Reaper's face managed to regain its composure, and said in a low voice, "I won't let you succeed."

After saying that, his face froze, and bloodshot eyes immediately overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

But it's also limited to this--

Sirin had already leaned forward and punched her close to her heart.

Adams immediately turned pale, all the strength in his body dissipated, and he slumped on the chair, and he didn't even have the strength to bite his tongue.

"Amy, thank you for treating him to save his life." Sirin said to the Moon Elf behind her.

Amy stepped forward, raised her hand to brush a healing spell, and looked at Sirin with puffy cheeks, eagerly waiting for Miss Swordsman to give her an explanation of the situation in front of her.

It's not that she's stupid. It's normal for people from other worlds to not understand the riddles of native people.

------

ps: There will be another chapter later, I suggest you get up and read it tomorrow morning~

Song of the Traveler: Chapter 54

Sirin could see the doubts of the moon elves, and she was not willing to keep Amy waiting too long.

She pulled a section of iron chain and input some magic power. Under the stimulation of magic power, the mysterious runes on the iron chain reappeared, flickering like breathing.

"The official name of these magic runes is 'Magic Seal Script', and it is You Yun's masterpiece." Sirin said softly, "I didn't notice it at first, but I noticed it after I got closer."

Adams can even get old dolls from 300 years ago to serve as guards, and it is not surprising that there are magic items made by You Yun.

You Yun...

Amy breathed out the cheek puffed up, feeling a little sour in her heart.

Every time she hears this title, which is very similar to "Lingfeng", she can't help thinking about it.

Lingfeng and Youyun are too similar to couple names.

"...Me and him are really just friends."

Probably seeing that Amy was sour, Sirin explained it unnecessarily, and then continued: "The seal glyph was developed to deal with possessed monsters, and soul slayers are among them. I once As an assistant, I helped You Yun draw runes, so I was very impressed."

Help Draw Runes...

For some reason, Amy's mind lost focus, and her thoughts went astray again.

Sirin grabbed her arm helplessly and shook it a few times, "You can understand, right? Would the abyssal monsters imprison ordinary people with iron chains engraved with seal glyphs?"

This is an operation that goes against common sense. The seal script drawn on the iron chain is dense enough to make ordinary monsters exhausted after touching it, unable to exert their power, let alone hold it to lock people.

Even if Scott and Nora wanted to trap Lord Adams, there was no need to use this kind of thing.

So, after seeing the runes on the iron chain clearly, Sirin took advantage of the opportunity to make associations.

What if the person trapped by the chain is not Lord Adams, but a monster?

Sirin has fought hard in the core area of ​​the abyss for a year, and has seen many monsters. She quickly thought of the Soul Reaper, which can absorb souls, capture memories and identities.

This kind of monster is perfect as the vanguard spy of the invasion, and it can be regarded as a classic partner with the succubus.

Sirin thought of Scott's confession at the right time. The succubus once had a companion who suddenly disappeared. If it was the Soul Reaper, it would be able to explain its whereabouts very well.

In the current White Tower City, Lord Adams is undoubtedly the most worthy of being seized.

If the lord opens the door of convenience, the abyss portal will soon be formed, and the follow-up plan of the abyss world can be launched.

After these thoughts popped up in her mind, Sirin took the opportunity to make a bold guess.

The Soul Reaper should have penetrated into Adams' body, but he hadn't completely seized the body. Driven by his remaining rationality, Lord Adams sent himself into this secret room specially prepared for monsters, and sealed himself.

Because of the special nature of the seal script, the Soul Reaper couldn't leave the body, and he couldn't bear Adams' status as the lord, and couldn't bear to let his companion directly kill the body to help him escape, so the situation was temporarily stalemate.

From this point of view, the layers of barriers surrounding Adams are the masterpieces of the lord himself.

He knew that he might turn into another look, so he locked himself up in the name of protecting his safety, and he should have left an order like "Even I, I can't change this decision".

It was also because of this situation that Scott and Nora were dragged into action and stayed in the lord's manor, trying to find a way to help the Soul Reaper get out of trouble.

Of course, all of the above are Xilin's own guesses, and they can only barely correspond to the clues found earlier. Whether it is true or not needs to be investigated further.

But at least one thing, Sirin got a definite answer through the question of "Black Spider".

Lord Adams in front of him didn't know about the existence of the black spider, but according to Sirin's investigation in the bandit village, it was almost certain that the black spider dared to act on the official road in the territory of Iris flower under the order of the lord. There is such a thing as hijacking a merchant.

It's just missing a key piece of evidence, which is to report to the dark guard.

The unimportant memory of "cooperating with bandits" did not attract the attention of the Soul Reaper, and it happened to become his weakness.

Seeing that Amy still didn't understand, Sirin whispered an explanation in her ear.

Unfortunately, because she cared too much about Sirin's breathing at the tips of her ears, Amy only listened to the general explanation of Sirin's explanation without thinking deeply.

She came to the conclusion in her heart, in short, Lord Adams in front of her was not herself, but was taken over by a monster.

And because this monster wanted to trick Sirin to help him cut off the chain, he acted too hastily. Sirin found out his identity and arrested him on the spot. Right now, he has no way to survive, and he probably can't even seek death.

It seemed embarrassing and stupid to cast oneself into such a trap.

Amy wanted to understand the reason, and wanted to laugh a little.

In other stories, the demon invasion usually has a perfect plan, and the execution link is also in place, only some mistakes will appear in the end, giving the brave a chance to save everything.

But the Soul Reaper and the Succubus had a pretty good plan, but the execution link was full of loopholes. Before the hero arrived, they almost sent themselves away happily.

How should I put it, Amy is a story writer, and she also knows that reality is usually less logical than stories, but what happened in the past two days still makes her feel very magical.

Are abyssal monsters at this level?

The brain circuit of Her Highness Dolores may not be very normal for an invasion with such subordinates.

On the other hand, the Soul Reaper who attempted suicide could also think about what will happen in the future, coupled with Sirin's contemptuous attitude towards Dolores, it was completely angry, and glared at Sirin hatefully, as if it wanted to "kill with its eyes" .

It's a pity that the Soul Reaper is not a beholder, and is still trapped in a human body, unable to kill people through its eyes.

There was no fluctuation in Sirin's heart. In her opinion, the eyes of the Soul Reaper were not even as lethal as Amy.

The beauty of the moon elves is comparable to the masterpiece of the gods. When staring at Sirin, it is easy to make Sirin's heart beat faster, and it takes a lot of effort to suppress the many subsequent thoughts.

Alas, it's a pity that the golden quicksand is kept by Amy herself, otherwise I can change it for her while she is asleep, and enjoy it...

Sirin put aside these wandering thoughts and said to Amy in a low voice: "This soul reaper is in a special state. It is definitely unrealistic to catch it, and it will give it a chance to escape. Ashley should have already sent the hidden guard Called over, let's go out and ask them to come in."

"Then let's just leave it alone?" Amy was a little worried.

Sirin pointed to the layout of the room, "With these seal glyphs, the Soul Imperator can't escape."

"Okay." Amy spread her hands, "Then listen to you."

Sirin walked back to Adams, and punched him in the chest again, making sure that he didn't even have the strength to get up, and then closed the door with Amy and left.

The room returned to silence until it was confirmed that no one was there, and a black-purple vortex suddenly appeared in one corner.

The Soul Reaper clutched his chest and panted slightly, as weak as a dying person.

A figure stepped out of the black-purple vortex, it was the succubus Nora who managed to escape earlier.

At this moment, she is still in a state of being controlled by the will of others, and her body movements appear very stiff and unnatural, like a marionette.

"One or two, they messed things up."

From the mouth of the succubus, a childlike voice came out, and the tone was very distressed.

"Your Highness Dolores..." the Reaper of Souls called weakly.

"I'm just—"

The succubus stretched out his arm and was about to move when the door of the room opened suddenly, followed by a breeze and sword intent.

On the other side of the sword wind was Sirin, she drew her sword and stabbed.
