About the brave man who became a thousand-year-old potato and ended up destroying the world

"You mean, he might have stayed with them voluntarily?" Liu Ji tapped his forehead, "Hmm... I don't know much about his relationship with the Secret Sanctuary, so do you think this is possible? "

"It is indeed possible," Yayin nodded. "Although my teacher and Snow both hate the people from the Mysterious Sanctuary, they still cooperate with them sometimes. They can always propose cooperation that is difficult to refuse. condition,

Moreover, when they act, they often do not act in the name of the Mystic Sanctuary, but act privately as a group of great arcanists. This situation... How should I put it? It is said that it is not dealt with. In fact, it is hard to say that it is a personal relationship. ,

Some people may really not get along with each other, but if there is another person they both admire to bridge the gap, they can still work together for the time being.

Even if the relationship between my teacher and the Secret Sanctuary is so tense, there are still a few of his good personal friends there. If they come forward, my teacher will not refuse to help most of the time. "

"So, maybe this auction was originally planned by them," Liu Ji frowned, "but someone must have set up the trap behind Snow's back."

"I'm carrying it on my back, but maybe he's aware of it," Yayin said. "If it weren't for Wuxiang, he wouldn't be here."

"Then, the purpose is..." Liu Ji said slowly while thinking, "First of all, it is definitely impossible for them to know that the two of us who arrived suddenly will come to him, and it is impossible for this event to happen today by such a coincidence. It was arranged, and the target was not us from the beginning."

"No, that's not right," Yayin shook her head, "If they target Osa and Luni, I don't look down on them, but it is too easy for the Grand Mystic Master to deal with them, and there is no need to use this method. Find a way to hook them."

"In other words, either they were not discovered, or... they were waiting for someone," Liu Ji frowned slightly, "I shouldn't have leaked too much information to the Secret Sanctuary. With the nature of this trap, Specification."

"There is a high probability that it is pointing to Anvada," Yayin said. "To be honest, if the target was me, I wouldn't be able to use something of this level."

"Well..." Liu Ji rubbed his eyebrows.

If the target is Anvada, the nature of the problem will be different.

However, that thing was too weird. After a round of fighting, he didn't even understand what kind of thing the opponent was. As the saying goes, you can't kill a chicken with a bull's knife, and no one would use a fragmentation mine to fry a turkey. To be honest, the most likely guess is that it has been targeting the heroes from the beginning.

But, it’s still the same problem.

What is the purpose?

Now that the tyrant is planning a plan against them, are they still here trying to draw hatred from the braves?

Why do you think you won't be beaten enough when the time comes?

And you must know that the braves all have internal contact networks. If they really succeed, they will fight one by one...

"Wait!" A flash of clarity flashed through Liu Ji's mind.

"What did you think of?" Yayin asked.

"Brave, yes, brave, these guys never take the brave seriously," Liu Ji felt that his logic had taken a turn, and he suddenly saw the sun.

In his opinion, the braves and the Mystic Sanctuary should be the two main lineups fighting against the tyrant now, but the people in the Mystic Sanctuary don't think so. According to their temperament, they will not regard the braves as allies.

Where did Liu Ji get the information about Tyrant's actions?

Turin told him.

Who else did he interact with when he met Turin before?

Mysterious Sanctuary.

Even though he had secretly approached Liu Ji to destroy the Secret Sanctuary before, but for people like him, it was just Liu Ji’s feeling. If you felt that he was on the opposite side of the Secret Sanctuary, then... too naive.

In a sense, there is no so-called opposite for a person like him. As long as it can be used to his advantage for a while, he can use it. On the contrary, if there is any reason to stab you in the back, he will not hesitate to do it, and stab you in the back. After it's over, I'll look for you to cooperate again as if nothing's wrong.

This is also Liu Ji's biggest headache. If you can't figure out his purpose, you have to be on guard against him. But he has a lot of key information that others can never get.

Liu Ji estimated that the Secret Sanctuary had the same stance as him.

In other words, it is very likely that the Mystic Sanctuary also knew that the tyrant wanted to take action against them.

So, if you can drag a brave man into the water at this time, and attract a bunch of brave men when the time comes, whether you want to escape or stand, you can have a bunch of top-notch cannon fodder in front to block the gun. From the standpoint of the Secret Sanctuary , it can be said that there is no harm at all.

"Wait, according to this idea," Liu Ji frowned, "could it be said that this is actually the headquarters of the Secret Sanctuary?"

"No, they don't have a base camp. At most, it's just one of the several camps they operate now," Yayin said. "It's not surprising. Otherwise, I can't imagine why Snow has to bear such a high cost of living. Take Ossa and Luni to jail here."

"Hmm... Tsk," Liu Ji rubbed his eyebrows, "Hell, if this is what you mean, could it be that Snow actually acquiesced in setting up Anvada?"

"Not sure, it's possible, but it's unlikely," Yayin said. "I'm more inclined to think that they have internal differences. This is some kind of secret struggle. They like to make their own decisions. Even if they are in the same team, Even if the team decides on a course of action, there will be people who secretly implement their plans. If I were to guess, I think maybe the acquisition is a real acquisition, but someone took the opportunity to set up a trap, but Snow also noticed it. , leaving a backup plan..."

"It's just that the specifications I ordered are a bit too high," Liu Ji scratched his eyebrows.

Fortunately, he was the one who got tricked. If it had been anyone else...

No, not necessarily. The main reason is that Wuxiang picked up Yayin immediately. If Anwada fell into this trap alone, then Wuxiang might take Anwada away directly.

"However, if we follow this line of thinking, wouldn't the plan to attract brave men be considered an abandoned plan?" Liu Ji said, "Then let me think about it, the Secret Sanctuary does not want the brave men to get involved. First of all, exclude them with good intentions and do not want to torment the brave men. Our possibilities..."

"It's more likely that they feel they don't need to get involved at all," Yayin said.

"Does this mean they plan to fight the tyrant themselves?" Liu Ji's brows twitched.

"Then I don't know. No one can guess their actions." Yayin shook her head.

"It seems we can only ask," Liu Ji said, walking up to Wu Xiang, looking him up and down, and then asked, "Well...then, can you take us to find your master?"

Wu Xiang looked at Liu Ji, blinked his eyes, and slowly tilted his head.

Liu Ji scratched his chin, and in the next second, his figure slowly turned gray, and a mantra that reached straight to the soul came out of his mouth: "I ask you, can you take us to find your master? "

After the words fell, Wu Xiang was obviously stunned for a moment.

Then, he nodded slowly, turned around, and headed towards the other end of the alley.

249. Eat, eat big pieces

Guards in armor and with wings crisscrossed in the air, and guards in neat formations hurriedly advanced through the streets.

People in the entire neighborhood seemed very nervous. The guards were constantly checking various details and questioning everyone nearby carefully.

A cordon has been set up near the cathedral at this moment, and a large number of guards have gathered inside, busy among the ruins.

On the high observation deck, Yayin walked up to Liu Ji, followed his line of sight to the block, and asked, "What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

"Well, I was wondering if the city's managers might have contact with them," Liu Ji said, "but I can't seem to figure out what to do..."

"There are some contacts, but according to their temperament, they will definitely not say hello to others," Yayin said.

"Hmm... I think so," Liu Ji nodded, "But why did he bring us here..."

At this moment, the place where the two of them were was on the observation deck of the tallest tower in the city. The surrounding area was sparsely populated by young couples who came to see the scenery and foreign dignitaries with a group of followers.

Wu Xiang just led them all the way here, and then stopped motionless on the street.

If Liu Ji hadn't thought that even though he didn't have any growth, it was immoral to run naked and covered him up with some clothes, there would have been a statue in the center of the observation deck.

"So, could it be that he didn't understand what you were saying?" Ya Yin asked.

"Then how do I know? I saw him walking so decisively, I thought he understood," Liu Ji scratched his forehead, feeling helpless.

He just tried it, thinking it had an effect, but the place Wu Xiang brought them to didn't look like they were looking for Snow.

But if Wu Xiang misunderstood what he meant, then how could it understand it before leading Liu Ji and the others to this inexplicable place?

Can't understand.

I can only try to change my mind...

"Hmm...I think," Liu Ji thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that he would have brought us here even if I didn't tell him?"

"I'm also thinking about this possibility, but I can't see it," Yayin looked up at the top of the tower, "There doesn't seem to be anything special about this place..."

"Some kind of puzzle?" Liu Ji touched his chin, "Is there any message or hint left nearby?"

"Then, um..." Yayin withdrew her gaze and looked at the observation deck, "I can only look around first."

"Then you look over there, and I'll look over here," Liu Ji suggested, pointing in two directions.

"Yeah," Yayin responded, turned her head, and checked the cracks in the wall one by one along the outside.

Liu Ji looked at her, then turned around and looked at the crack in the wall on his side.

tsk...

Find it from the crack in the wall.

Gee, I always feel that it seems reasonable, but in fact it will lead to nothing.

Turning around to look at Wu Xiang, the latter was still standing in the center of the observation deck with a dull expression, motionless.

With a helpless sigh, Liu Ji gave up the possibility of gathering clues from Wu Xiang, turned around, and carefully searched along the walls one by one.

This search lasted several hours.

Liu Ji and Ya Yin searched almost every inch and centimeter near the observation deck, but found nothing.

Even because the two men's behavior was too suspicious, they were reported on the spot by troubled people who didn't know the truth. Liu Ji managed to fool them by saying that they had a pendant dropped nearby and were looking for it.

When night was about to fall and the viewing platform was open for less than an hour, the two of them reluctantly gathered together.

"Is there anything gained?" Liu Ji asked.

"No," Yayin sighed, "It seems like you are the same?"

"Yeah, I didn't find anything useful at all," Liu Ji was also helpless.

"Ha, this is really..." Yayin sat down and leaned against the wall. "I even suspected that this place was a smoke bomb. Maybe Snow didn't want us to find him at all."

"Then there's no need for him to bring us here," Liu Ji sighed, turned around and lay down on the guardrail next to him.

Then, there was a silence.

As the sun sets, the lights in the city gradually light up.

Speaking of the night scenes in this world, there are actually not many lights in the world. Except for the special case of Kaga Holy City, in most places at night, apart from the sparse bonfires and candlelight, there are not even small magic lanterns that light up. Common.

Although the city center of Kaga Holy City is brightly lit, it is more like too many decorative light sources than lights, which eventually forcibly reflects the feasting and feasting.

That kind of scenery is too vulgar, and as long as you look at the slums outside the main city that are as dim as the Dead Sea at night, all the beauty will turn into a rotten mountain of human blood.

But the night view of this city, even Liu Ji, who has seen the commercial center condensed by industrial civilization, can only say two words with conviction: "Beautiful..."

really beautiful……

Warm-colored street lamps are neatly arranged along the road, and the magical light flows slowly along the street lamps. Whenever the light flows to it, it will become warm and bright. After the magic flow passes, the light will slowly dim.

As the magic flow flows over and over again, the light is like slowly extending fireworks, seemingly blooming, and like the breathing of the entire city.

Between the street lights, the towering buildings were decorated with colorful paintings. The magic flow slowly flowed through them again and again, and the decorative paintings continued to show different harmonies and colors.

In the middle of the building, fluorescent magic shuttles shuttled back and forth along the sky rail, like meteors rotating in the city, and like elves dancing happily in the colorful sky.

Under the illumination of the lights, the magnificent building complex in the entire mountain is like the protagonist bathed in the spotlight in the center of the stage, and like an exquisite picture scroll, depicting grandeur and splendor.

Yayin on the side glanced at Liu Ji, stood up, chanted the incantation softly, her body floated up, floating next to Liu Ji, and followed her gaze to look at the entire city.

"This night view is nice, isn't it?" Liu Ji said, "Maybe from this point alone, we are not at a loss?"

However, Yayin did not reply.

Liu Ji was a little confused and turned around to take a look, only to find that Yayin was quickly scanning the night scene below with her eyes wide open. Her expression was so focused that she obviously didn't seem to be admiring the beautiful scenery.

"Ya Yin?" Liu Ji asked doubtfully, "What did you find?"

"Wait, don't rush yet..." Yayin said as she floated slowly along the edge of the observation tower, keeping her eyes open the whole time and scanning the scene below.

But at this moment, a discordant voice sounded from behind Liu Ji.

"Hello? Why is there still someone up there?" A guard with a lantern came up and shouted, "The opening hours are over, you... Huh?"

He blinked, looked around, scratched his head, and murmured: "Huh, strange, there is no one anymore? Did I hear wrongly..."

After muttering around in a circle, the guard still found nothing, scratched his head, and finally turned around and left.

Liu Ji stood in the green grass and watched him slowly leave, then raised his head and looked at Ya Yin, who was floating in the sky.

The latter was currently suspended above the spire of the tower, scanning downwards, taking in the entire city.

Liu Ji looked at her, then turned to look at the city below, tilting his head to the left and then to the right, but no matter how he looked, Liu Ji still couldn't see anything.

"Hey, it's a knowledge blind spot again," Liu Ji sighed helplessly, and could only lean on the guardrail, watching the night scene and waiting quietly.

This wait is several hours.

When the bright moon was high in the sky, Liu Ji, who was taking a nap on the guardrail, suddenly felt someone tapping his shoulder.

When he turned around, he realized that Yayin was looking at him seriously.

"Huh? What's wrong? What did you see?" Liu Ji asked while rubbing his eyes.

"I'm not sure, I only know that this entire city is a huge magic circle," Yayin said solemnly, "and its complexity and construction level are so high that they even exceed my understanding. , I think it may be a living three-dimensional magic array..."

"Alive?" Liu Ji was stunned for a moment, "I can roughly imagine the three-dimensional one, but, alive?"
