With Connie's permission, Lorenno woke up Elsa who was still sleeping and took her out with him. The wolf girl was responsible for the smallest slum in the area, while the half-elf girl herself wandered around the entire Cardinal City, constantly using her spirit. Able to sense and explore the surrounding area.

After the two most powerful combatants left, Connie assigned tasks to the druid and the construct girl, treating them as training and preparing them to manage forces in the future. It would be best if they could help her. Help: "Sha Luo, can you stay with me and help me record the conversation between me and the facilitator?"

"no problem."

"Connie, go to the library in Cardinal City and find out if there is anything special in Cardinal City that could attract the Federation to seize it."

"Ah."

After assigning the task, Connie looked at the time, got on the carriage and set off towards the hotel where she had been yesterday. After entering the hotel, she found that in addition to Gounod Holly and Molly Frayne, the director of the Cardinal City Guards also Came here.

……

Lorenno stood at the federal embassy and paid attention to their every move. He didn't stay too long. He scanned it with his spiritual energy, made sure there was nothing unusual, and then headed towards the street where the embassies of various countries were.

It should be noted here that the embassy of the federation and the embassy of the country are separate. The federation is the federation and the country is the country.

The half-elf girl felt that there were no signs of those people's actions on the Federation side. It was most likely assisted by various countries, especially the major countries in the Federation such as Gray Eagle and the Kingdom of Fatir.

Quietly entering the exclusive street full of embassies, Lorenno let go of his spiritual power to observe the actions of these people. After waiting for an hour, nothing happened. The half-elf girl could only helplessly follow the route planned by Cardinal City. Wander around in the hope of finding a breakthrough.

When she wandered near the Federation again, the girl suddenly stopped and opened her eyes thoughtfully.

Before Lorenno left the house.

"Are you sure this thing can mislead the half-elf's spiritual energy?"

Duchev, a barbarian from the North, picked up a badge and observed it. This was an item made by an elf mage that could mislead psychic energy. Some analysts from the Federation believe that the reason why Lorenno can find the person he needs to find every time is, All thanks to her powerful psychic powers.

Therefore, as long as the psychic ability to detect life is blocked, half-elves cannot find those children.

"You will know if you try it," the elf mage said while drinking tea. "Bring an unrelated child over and pretend that she is needed by us, then give her this badge and see if Lorenno will take it away. she."

"good idea."

……

The first time Lorenno came over, she didn't find any trace of the child. She didn't turn on her plant sense, but only turned on her spiritual sense. The second time she came, she used her plant sense to scan, and finally discovered the basement through the moss. That child.

"A blocking object was created to target my psychic energy."

The half-elf girl observed the child in the basement indifferently. She used psychic switches several times to make sure she couldn't see him, and then determined that it was the bait they threw. Lorenno did not intend to rescue the child, but quietly retreated while controlling Moss gets on the child.

If Lorenno's prediction is correct, these guys from the Federation will take the children into the carriage and go to the place where their team lives. After making sure that the people are home, they will walk around. As long as the children are not snatched away, it means that there is something that suppresses psychic abilities. it works.

Although it is indeed useful, the half-elf girl still has plant perception.

Hurrying back to the hotel, Lorenno deliberately

After leaving the hotel and buying food, he made sure that the spy saw him before returning to the hotel and waiting for the experimenter to come over.

After a while, the plant sense discovered the child's approach, but the psychic still couldn't see him standing within its detection range. The half-elf girl quietly waited for the people from the Federation to leave, so that they could be sure——

It turns out this thing really works!

After they left, Lorenno set off again and approached the federal embassy.

"Sir, we are back safely and the child has not been kidnapped."

"well done."

After hearing the good news, Duchev finally let go of his worries. The pressure Lorenno put on him was too great. After all, she did not represent herself alone, but also represented the entire empire behind her. And that terrifying queen.

Now that they have something to block psychic energy, they can avoid Lorenno's tracking, and they can definitely greatly advance or even accelerate their plan.

"Very good," the elf mage praised, "Now go and bring the children over. It feels unsafe to leave them there."

"It's better to bring only a few here," Duqifu was obviously more cautious. "Although there is chaos over there, with our people there, it is safer than here. If the embassy is discovered, those children will definitely They are to be rescued.”

"That's right. We can still take back the chaotic places, but not here."

If the material they finally found is taken away by the city guards, there is a high probability that they will not be able to get it back. What they will do next cannot be exposed. Even a slight flaw in the way may lead to disaster. , by that time, the Federation will definitely cut off the arms of strong men and the tail of geckos.

Duchev called over the students he led and said, "I'll leave it up to you. We must make sure those children arrive at the embassy safely. There must be no mistakes."

A few people were talking and didn't notice the slight swing of the potted plant in the room, or even if they noticed it, they ignored it. After all, it was just a potted plant, an ordinary plant without any life.

"By the way," the barbarian looked at Pastor Karen, "Karen, you can do some divination first to see if you will be followed during this trip."

……

The half-elf girl eavesdropped on their conversation. She stood in the bushes and rubbed her temples, giving up the idea of ​​following them.

Karen's divination was not useful to them, but Lorenno was only indirectly divined, so the autumn leaf headdress she was wearing was of no use. In other words, if she insisted on following the divination, she would be discovered by the divination, and it would be very difficult to do so. The illusion of "can't find anyone" that is easy to accomplish will most likely be broken.

Finally, he used the plant to glance at Karen, who was doing divination. Lorenno walked to the hotel he booked without hesitation, preparing to have a long-term discussion with Connie, the city guard, Molly, and Gounod.

When Lorenno left and the divination was completed, Karen put down her arms and looked very weak. She took several deep breaths before she recovered: "Don't worry, our operation will not be discovered this time. It will be completed smoothly."

Chapter 458 Old Acquaintances

"Ah, I forgot that Elsa is still in the slums."

Heading towards the hotel, Lorenno remembered Elsa who was left under surveillance in the slums, and turned around to go there, preparing to call the wolf girl back.

After walking for a while and arriving at a dilapidated house, Lorenno stepped over the sallow-looking poor man and began to use his senses to search for traces of Elsa. Just as she was concentrating, a sloppy little girl walked past her, and her body was about to hit her. When he came up, he was grabbed by the half-elf girl.

Lorenno opened his eyes and glanced at the girl, pinched her wrist in warning and let her go, continuing to look for Elsa.

The girl who was let go hurriedly ran away from the half-elf, opened her palms, and Lorenno stuffed a small silver coin into her hand. Her frightened eyes quickly calmed down, and she glanced gratefully at the half-elf standing on the street. Elf girl.

The girl who tried to steal was named Embella. She was the epitome of many children in the slums. Help for children in Cardinal City was not as easy as in other cities in the empire. They were still in dire straits.

The girl turned left and right and came to a relatively intact room. There were some children hiding in the corner and a man with a scar on his face sitting on a chair throwing a knife.

Embela fearfully handed over the silver coin in his hand. Scarface snatched the silver coin and nodded with a grin: "Oh, you actually took a silver coin back. Okay, you don't need to be beaten today."

"Yes, thank you..."

The girl lowered her head in thanks, her eyes full of resentment and hatred. She walked tremblingly to her bed, opening and closing her mouth silently against the wall, cursing the guy who was using her to make money and the people behind him.

"Whether they are devils or gods, please come and help me and kill them..."

Embella's figure huddled in the corner was stared at by Scarface, with a hint of sarcasm and ridicule flashing across his lips. This kid really thought he didn't notice her, but in fact Scarface just left her alone.

Looking away, Scarface couldn't help but mutter the strange request made above: "Let these brats pray to devils or devils, at least not resist their help? What kind of strange request is this."

As a wage earner, although he was a little uncomfortable with the demands made above, he still had to do it conscientiously, otherwise it would not be him but someone else who would be in charge of these brats next time.

In order to complete the mission of the boss of the boss of the boss, he began to often taunt these little devils: "Why would God want you guys who have no parents and nothing? Instead of praying to God, you might as well pray to the devil." Yeah! At least you still have souls, right?"

Judging from now, what he said was very effective. Those little devils who only knew how to pray for God's blessing began to pray to the devil...

But it's still scary.

As a little bastard, he has always bullied the weak and feared the strong, let alone the devil. After doing these things, he was really afraid that a devil would come and kill him someday. Being stared at by those little bastards these days has made him mentally weak. .

"Fortunately, someone should be here soon to take them away." Scar muttered, padding the money bag in his arms, preparing to take some money and go to the arena to watch the game, and then find a woman to have fun with.

……

"Elsa, go back first."

After finding Elsa in a hidden corner, Lorenno knocked her on the head. The wolf girl turned around and asked, "Don't you want to continue looking?"

"Let's go back for now. I'm being targeted by them."

Lorenno felt that he shouldn't just focus on these guys. There must be other ways to find out what they want to do.

Back at the hotel, Connie and the others had returned. Seeing that Lorenno and the others had returned empty-handed, with no bloody smell on their bodies, Connie knew that the operation was not going well. The half-elf girl explained the matter and then asked: " Connie, what can you do?”

"We also feel that we cannot focus on the Federation and the nobles," Connie nodded. "In fact, what the city guards found was that there were always people sneaking around in civilian areas at night a few days ago. After investigation, it was Some punks.”

"You mean there are people from the Federation over there in the black part?"

Connie suggested: "Well, their influence in Cardinal City should be greater than in Lakeside City. My suggestion is that you try to start with the underworld."

"Okay, I happen to know someone, he should be able to provide some help."

Lorenno recalled the days when she went to the arena to speed up combat experience. She met a man named Luo, and she should be able to get some information from him. If not, she could just go to his immediate boss. (ps: Chapter 15)

In the normal dueling arena disguised as an underground arena, Luo, the supervisor here and the arena's recommender, was basking in the sun and sighing at the peace and tranquility of life.

tuk-tuk-tuk-

There was a sound of tapping on the table. Luo stretched his arms lazily, tapped his spine and said, "Coming, coming~"

Opening the window sill, a beautiful half-elf ranger girl appeared in front of him. Looking at her face, Luo couldn't help but swallowed, and showed a gentle smile: "Beautiful half-elf lady, do you need my help?"

"Long time no see, Luo."

The director of the duel field was suddenly stunned: "Beautiful lady, I think I should not forget such a beautiful you, but I really can't remember where I met you."

Lorenno reached out and touched his cheek, and decided to let Connie make a mask for himself with additional camouflage skills in the future. He took out the blank mask from the dimensional gloves and put it on, then looked at the young man from the east again: "One year I should have been considered pretty before, but I was a dwarf."

dwarf?

As this title was spoken, Luo's memory began to be awakened.

Compared to a year ago, Lorenno's face can be said to be quite cute, but this title is easier to remember. After all, it is rare for people to name themselves dwarfs.

"It's you! Uh..."

"Lorenno." The half-elf girl said her name again.

"Lorenno, long time no see. Where did you go to make a fortune recently? And why did you become so_"

While chatting with the half-elf girl, Luo suddenly felt something was wrong.

Lorenno?I always feel like I have heard this name somewhere.

...Wait, [Blood Beast] Lorenno?

Luo, who finally thought of this, swallowed again, and the hand holding the teacup trembled a little. After subconsciously letting go, the teacup fell to the table involuntarily. Lorenno, who came to see his old friend, took out the Mingpan and caught it steadily. Cups and tea are placed on the table.

She looked at the Eastern young man who was a little shocked and awed and said, "I want to ask you something, is that okay?"

Chapter 459

"Of course! Please sit down, Lord Lorenno."

After the big shock, he finally reacted quickly. He opened the door with a smile and invited Lorenno to enter. He poured a cup of fine tea and asked, "What is it that deserves your visit in person?"

Without touching the tea, Lorenno looked into Luo's eyes and asked, "Have you or your companions received any weird tasks in the past fifteen days or so, such as asking children under 14 to do anything?"

Before the manager could speak, after the switch, Aya raised her finger to emit magic light, and said expressionlessly: "Let me remind you first, don't try to lie, I will know."

Luo couldn't help but stare, and his mind couldn't help but recall the words he heard while eating with some "colleagues".

That was ten days ago. Luo had a dinner with some people in his gang. Since they were not doing the same job, they all got along well. As they ate and drank, they started to complain.

own hardships.

One of the people who was in charge of a group of orphans complained loudly about a strange task. It was so creepy that Luo couldn't help but remember it. That person's task was to let the orphans pray to the devil on their own, and he couldn't help the orphans realize it. He purposely told them to pray.

After struggling for a moment, Luo was ready to bet that Lorenno was lying. Compared to her, Luo felt that his boss was more terrifying.

"No, I have not received a similar task." He said calmly.

Lorenno was not satisfied with his answer: "Where are your other 'friends' or 'colleagues'?"

"No."

The half-elf felt Luo's nervous heartbeat and confirmed that he was lying. He switched back to Aya and extinguished the light. Lorenno looked at the extinguished light on his finger and asked again, giving Luo a chance:

"Are you sure? My friend, I have to tell you that I am working for the empire now. The reason why I want to investigate this matter is because there are federal personnel trying to harm the empire and Cardinal City. If someone wants to cover up, then he I’m afraid it will be miserable.”

"...I'm pretty sure not, actually, duh!"

Lorenno delicately used the Immortal Slash to cut off the jaw of Luo's right hand. He was caught off guard and snorted in pain.

The half-elf girl shook her head helplessly: "Luo, my dear friend, I am very dissatisfied with your answer. I guess you are unwilling to tell me the truth because you are afraid of someone who is not here.

But haven't you ever thought that people here are more likely to threaten you with death? "

"You can't do it, right?" Luo kept smiling despite the cold sweat, not believing that Lorenno would do anything to him, "You are from the City Guard, and you won't do it easily without evidence, ah!"

Once again, before he finished speaking, the Immortal Slash was pulled out from the table, this time cutting off the left tiger's mouth.

Lorenno took off his mask and looked at him with a smile, a very fake smile: "You seem to have misunderstood something, dear Luo, I am not working for the city guard, but for the empire, and I can handle things more unscrupulously.

Do you know what the sword that stabbed you is? It's called [Immortal Slash]. If a person belongs to the good camp, it will be difficult to stab him. Therefore, I have no sense of guilt for the people killed by it.
