Things about the female knight in black stockings

According to the previous game, she was at least promoted from level 1 to level 30 this time.

"Didn't I remind you before to be mentally prepared?"

The shop owner seemed to have guessed what happened in the enhanced cabin, and he was very considerate and didn't say much. He didn't speak until Valencia was almost recovered:

"Is there anything else you need, Miss Valencia? You should already have a lot of blind box draws in your membership terminal, right? Do you want to use it?"

"...No, don't worry, let's do this this time."

Valencia only hesitated for a few seconds before making a decision, saying goodbye and leaving the Dimension Hardware Store.

In the past, she would have drawn the blind box as soon as she could, and would not miss any opportunity to become stronger.

But it's different now... After learning the power of the mind, Valencia had a bold guess.

According to her senior sister Red Fox Mask, the spiritual power of this school is best at strengthening oneself.

What about luck?Is luck considered an attribute of its own?

If it is really possible... Then use the power of your mind to strengthen your luck before drawing the blind box... Wouldn't you be able to see the golden legend every time you draw it?

Just thinking about it makes me so happy!

However, Valencia knew that there was a high probability that things would not be as good as she thought, but it was still necessary to give it a try... What if it succeeded?

It's just that she has just gained the power of the mind. Even if she has leveled up directly with the help of the enhancement card, she has no experience in using it. She should wait until she can use it proficiently before trying it.

It just so happens that participating in Miss Phantom Thief's treasure hunt is a perfect opportunity.

After coming out of the Dimensional Hardware Store, Valencia immediately participated in the treasure hunt like most adventurers in Kraal City.

She actually had a plan on how to find the painting.

Miss Phantom Thief did not give Valenza any hints, but Miss Phantom Thief herself was the clue.

Standing in the city of Krall where the sky had completely darkened, Valencia took a deep breath, closed her eyes and activated her spiritual power.

My sense of smell is extremely sensitive, even more sensitive than the best police dogs. I can easily distinguish the odor residues on different people!

The water in the pool of her heart suddenly decreased by more than one-third, and at the same time, all kinds of smells penetrated Valencia's nose, almost making her faint.

"Yuck~"

She kept retching like morning sickness, and it took her nearly 10 minutes to barely adapt to the wave of smell after her sense of smell was greatly improved.

Although she almost vomited out the milk tea she drank in the afternoon, Valencia was happy in her heart.

It worked!

The power of the mind is indeed magical, and her sense of smell has temporarily reached the level she wanted.

I just don’t know how long it will last... This kind of enhancement that will consume more than one-third of the heart pool reserves at one time must not be wasted.

Valensa gritted her teeth, rummaged through her magic storage bag, and quickly found a piece of used gauze and a sheet.

They were all used by Miss Phantom Thief last night, and her scent still lingers on them.

Valencia put the two items in front of her nose in turn and smelled them carefully:

"Hmm... remember, this is the smell of senior sister... Next, I just need to look for places with the same smell in Krall City... Hum, I will definitely win this treasure hunt game!"

This is Valencia's long-planned plan, to use psychic power to enhance her sense of smell and track the smell to find where her senior sister hides her treasure.

Similar methods have actually been used by people before. After all, although there are no police dogs in this world, there are tameable monsters with a more sensitive sense of smell than police dogs.

But with Ms. Phantom Thief's skills, how could those monsters have the chance to remember her scent?

Valenza didn't have this difficulty. She relied on her sense of smell to keep tracking, and soon she had a clear idea of ​​Miss Phantom Thief's itinerary last night.

To put it simply, Miss Phantom Thief entered the city from the west of the city yesterday, walked on the roof all the way, stayed at the Nora Chamber of Commerce for the longest time, and finally left from the west of the city.

Adventurers from all walks of life had been searching high and low for those rooftops all day long, but no clues were found. Valencia did not repeat this behavior again.

She came to the Nora Chamber of Commerce... The painting stolen by Miss Phantom Thief was probably still hidden somewhere inside the Nora Chamber of Commerce.

Valencia is definitely not the only adventurer who has this idea. The staff of the Nola Chamber of Commerce are obviously used to adventurers coming to their door.

They welcomed Valencia's arrival and said that except for a few important places that required application, Valencia could search anywhere else as long as she didn't mess with things.

Valencia continued to pursue the smell like a good police dog, but found that the smell left by Miss Phantom Thief was everywhere, and it was difficult to get rid of it for a while.

She had no choice but to follow her intuition and start looking slowly from places that looked suspicious and had a lot of residual smell.

The search lasted for two full hours, but Valencia still found nothing. She even felt a little sore from having to bend down to look under the table and other places.

During this period, her sense of smell enhancement expired once, and she consumed about one-third of the reserves in her heart pool to restart it.

At present, one-third of Xinchi's psychic power consumption can give her an enhanced sense of smell for about an hour and a half, while Xinchi will recover about one-sixth during this period.

In other words, without the help of other supplementary means, once Valencia's heart pool reserve is exhausted, it will take about nine hours to recover naturally.

"Ouch!"

Valencia, who was calculating all this in her mind, didn't pay much attention. As a result, she was accidentally bumped into by a middle-aged woman in a hurry while stretching.

"Auntie, I'm sorry."

Valencia did not dislike the fact that the middle-aged woman was just an ordinary laundry worker, and quickly helped her up, which actually made the middle-aged woman a little flattered.

"Huh? This is..."

Just as the middle-aged woman was about to leave, Valencia suddenly stopped her and picked up a piece of clothing from the tub in her hand.

A long black dress with a low neckline and high slits.

"This is the dress that Master Langzhi wore at the auction last night. I was about to take it to be washed, miss."

The middle-aged woman quickly explained.

"I know, I also participated in the auction last night."

Valencia waved her hand, but frowned.

Why did the clothes the beautiful auctioneer wore last night smell like senior sister?

Chapter 46 The anxious scapegoat

With the middle-aged woman's mouth wide open, Valencia put the low-cut, high-slit black dress to her nose and sniffed it carefully.

Can't go wrong.

Although there are several other people's scents on this long dress, Miss Phantom Thief has the most scents!

When Miss Phantom Thief sent out the notice letter last night, she did use the beautiful auctioneer's collar as a mailbox, but that level of contact would not leave such a smell at all, it must be worn in person!

Is it possible that the tall, plump and beautiful auctioneer last night was the true face of Miss Phantom Thief?

Valencia was frowning and thinking, but the middle-aged woman's expression became more and more strange.

God, what did she see?

A pretty and kind aristocratic lady actually acted like a pervert and put other women's dresses up to her nose and smelled them?After smelling it, you still closed your eyes and had an aftertaste on your face?

The middle-aged woman covered her mouth tightly, worried that she would scream.

In fact, if Valencia wasn't a noble lady, the middle-aged woman would have been shouting for the chamber of commerce bodyguards and security team members to catch the pervert.

"Ok?"

Valencia, who took a while to recover from her thoughts, immediately saw the problem.

Not only did she not feel guilty and embarrassed, but she sniffed the skirt openly a few times before asking the middle-aged woman seriously:

"Where was the auctioneer's room last night? Take me to see it."

"what?"

The middle-aged woman couldn't hold herself any longer.

Who are these people...

If you're not satisfied with holding someone else's skirt and smelling it, you still want to go to someone else's room?

"cough……"

Seeing that the middle-aged woman really seemed to be calling for arrest, Valencia coughed lightly and explained her behavior just now:

"It seems that you have misunderstood something... I am a candlelight-level adventurer. I have a special method that can enhance my sense of smell. I have been helping your chamber of commerce find stolen items by tracking smells.

I just found a very important clue on this skirt. Now I want to go to the room of the owner of the skirt to investigate further. I also hope that my aunt can cooperate with me. "

"Huh? Oh...oh oh oh oh..."

The middle-aged woman was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, and she was still a little ashamed.

It seems that I have misunderstood others... Come to think of it, how could a kind-hearted lady who helped me up after being hit by me be such a pervert?

This thought made the middle-aged woman even more grateful and cooperative to Valencia, and she wanted to lead the way to the beautiful auctioneer's room in person right away.

It's a pity that after all, she is just a small laundry worker at the Nora Chamber of Commerce, so she can't make the decision.

"I'm so sorry, young lady."

The middle-aged woman looked guilty:

"If it were somewhere else, I would take you up to the mountain of knives and the sea of ​​fire... But Lady Lanzhi is a big shot in our chamber of commerce, and I really don't dare to bring outsiders into her room at will."

"It's ok."

Valencia didn’t embarrass the middle-aged woman:

"Then you should know who can decide this matter, right? Can you send me a message?"

"This...Okay, miss, please wait a moment."

It can be seen that as a small person, the middle-aged woman did not want to meet the leader alone, but after all, she had misunderstood Valencia just now, and she felt guilty, so she finally agreed.

The painting that is the treasure of the store seems to be quite popular with the Nola Chamber of Commerce.

Valencia waited there for only a few minutes before a man in formal clothes walked over in a hurry.

He originally seemed to want to ask directly, with his mouth half open, but he stopped in time after seeing the noble emblem on Valencia's body, and changed to formal etiquette:

"Hello, young lady, I heard from my laundryman that you have found important information about the stolen items? Is it related to Master Lanzhi?"

Every word he said was polite, but it still couldn't hide the man's anxiety... It seemed that he should be the most responsible person in this incident.

If the painting is not found in the end, the man who is suspected to be the owner of the Kraal City branch is likely to be pushed out by the top management of the Nola Chamber of Commerce to take the blame.

Valencia guessed this at a glance from the man's performance, and also noticed another detail from the man's words.

Lord Lanzhi.

There is no problem for the laundry worker to call the beautiful auctioneer this way, but the branch manager in a city actually wants to address her as "sir"?It seems that the beautiful auctioneer has a high status in the Nola Chamber of Commerce.

While thinking rapidly in her mind, Valensa did not forget her etiquette.

She smiled and nodded to the man. She first talked about her ability to enhance her sense of smell, and then pointed to the long black dress with a low collar and high slits:

"I found a lot of scent residue of the Red Fox Mask on this piece of clothing... This level is definitely not something that can be shed by simple contact. She must have worn it personally for a period of time."

"what do you mean……"

The man immediately frowned. If he could be the head of a branch, he would definitely not be an idiot. He easily understood the meaning of Valencia's words.

"Impossible! It's absolutely impossible!"

After thinking for a moment, the man suddenly waved his hand firmly:

"Miss, you must be mistaken... Lady Lanzhi cannot be Red Fox Mask. She has a clear alibi in many Red Fox Mask cases!"

"Have you seen her after the accident last night? Where is she now?"

Valencia was not in a hurry, still smiling calmly.

"This……"

But the branch manager of the Nola Chamber of Commerce couldn't laugh anymore, and you could see big beads of sweat running down his face.

"Actually, I didn't say that the auctioneer lady was Red Fox Mask."

Valencia took advantage of the victory and pursued:

"Think about it... Red Fox Mask used to be able to enter and leave the palace with ease. I have reason to suspect that she has some special ability, such as the art of camouflage by pretending to be someone else..."

"...So Miss, what you are saying is that Lady Lanzhi was replaced by Red Fox Mask?"
