The Whispering Verses Chapter 251: Infiltrate

There is sufficient lighting in the hotel room, and Shade can clearly see that the center of the emblem is a rectangle, and above the rectangle is a pointed hat, with three lines on the pointed hat to outline a face:

"What is this?"

Miss Anat explained quickly:

"New clues obtained from the doctor. Hasn't the doctor been collecting intelligence last week? Since someone can know the location of the ruins, it is natural that someone has entered there. This is a pattern found in the ruins. I have been unable to check it. I didn’t know what it was, but I didn’t expect Iluna to know it.”

Miss Bayas smiled reservedly and explained to Shade:

"I just thought of it while I was waiting for you. This is the holy emblem of the fallen old **** [Innocent Creator]. During the basic knowledge training for ring warlocks in the Orthodox Church, it is necessary to identify the old gods. The Holy Emblem is an important exam subject. This **** is not well-known, so even if I got 91 points out of 100, I just thought about it."

The young girl's last words seemed to be praising herself.

"The Old Gods...the Creators of Innocence?"

Xia De looked at the Holy Emblem, and the image of the **** suddenly jumping out and saying "surprise" appeared in his mind:

"It's not surprising. So, the underground ruins are..."

"Left by?'s followers."

Miss Anat said firmly and asked Shadra to sit down in a chair first:

"This old **** died in the early fifth era, but all his believers did not disappear until the sixth era. They firmly believed that the **** would return. Just as Iluna said, about this There are very few records about the gods, they are not powerful, and their followers are not keen on preaching. Judging from the time point, Iluna and I both believe that the underground ruins in Tobesk are most likely the creation of the old gods. The last group of believers left behind."

Shad nodded, and Miss Bayas added:

"In other words, apart from the sage-level relic, it is very likely that most of the property and all the secrets held by a disappeared old **** sect are hidden inside the ruins."

Xia De turned his head and looked out the window in the direction of the Knock Printing Factory in the night:

"What else could there be?"

"It's hard to say, now it's time to go."

Xia De calibrated the pocket watches for the two ladies for the last time. The three briefly dictated the action plan and precautions again, and then burned all the notes and information in the room before leaving the hotel.

The street where Knock Printing House is located is called Malton Market Street. After a day of rain, the street was full of mud. It's night time, and after the fog has returned to the streets, tonight doesn't seem to be a good time to travel.

Miss Anat, wearing a long skirt and glasses with a tired look, appeared on the street at this time. She hurried to the outside of the printing factory, but because it was already off-duty time, the iron gate of the printing factory yard was already closed.

After a few gentle knocks, a small window opened on the iron door, and a man stood impatiently behind the door:

"Who is it? We are off work."

"I'm Alina Fick. I ordered a batch of business cards from you a few days ago."

The tired woman with short brown hair said, with the same impatience in her tone:

"Can you bring me those business cards now? I know you are already off work, but I am in a hurry."

The man looking out from behind the door showed an unhappy expression, but still nodded:

"Yes ma'am, please wait."

As he said that, he turned around and walked towards the tallest building in the yard, which was the office building of Knock Printing Factory.

He left without closing the small window on the iron door, so Miss Anat had a chance to look inside.

Confirming the situation in the yard, just like during the daytime investigation, Miss Anat took something out of her handbag and held it in her hand.

And the man who went to pick up the printed matter came back soon carrying the cardboard box. The small window on the iron door couldn't let the cardboard box pass through, so he carried an extra set of keys.

After opening the door, Miss Anat did not take the carton immediately. She looked down at the muddy ground, and the man hugged the box and lowered his head. The gas street lights on this street are not very bright, and there are no lights in the yard of the printing factory:

"Is there anything on the ground?"

The man asked doubtfully.

"Nothing."

As Miss Anat spoke, she suddenly stretched out her hand and slapped the thing in her palm on the man's forehead:

"Thaumatology - Thought Puppet!"

On the piece of paper held in his hand, ancient runes are outlined in bright red ink. The rune was slapped on the man's forehead by Miss Anat. At the moment when the thaumaturgy took effect, a strange red light flashed, as if it was directly engraved on the man's head.

The man opened his eyes wide and wanted to shout, but those lights appeared in his pupils at this moment, and what was reflected in his eyes was no longer the woman in front of him, but the rune on his forehead.

His expression became dull:

"Ma'am, this is your goods."

"Thank you, put it on the clean ground here. Someone will pick me up soon."

Miss Anat said, and the man did the same. After the two greeted each other politely, he locked the iron door inside again and walked towards the building normally, with only the lights on the second floor.

Soon, Shade, who was wearing a black coat, also appeared here. He shook hands with Miss Anat, pretended to say a few words, then bent down to lift the cardboard box, and then walked with her along the street. Go far away.

"Very smooth."

After they were far enough away, they turned into a narrow alley with no street lights.

Miss Anat immediately closed her eyes, and Miss Bayas, who was hiding here waiting for the two of them, supported her.

The female soothsayer held a puppet tied with white threads in her hands. The puppet was rough in workmanship and was not even as big as her hand. The red runes on its head were flashing:

"The opponent is a first-level warlock. I can only control him for twenty minutes. After that, I will put him to sleep..."

Her eyes kept rolling under her closed eyelids, and her voice was very low:

"The Silver Eyes don't even trust most people in their own organization, so not many people know this address. After the Mercury Blood organization was broken into pieces and hid in the city, the manpower here was also reduced.

There should be 7 people keeping watch here at night, four of them are ring warlocks... I saw two night watchmen on the first floor... He was struggling, trying to get out of control, no problem , no abnormality was found, but there may be problems with his head later, but this has nothing to do with me...

The situation on the second floor is no problem. There are only two rooms with lights on, one of which is a ring magic. I was greeting them, and then it was the third floor... He couldn't go to the third floor. He was afraid of what the people living on the third floor might have done to him. ”

Miss Anat closed her eyes tightly and frowned. It took a while before she opened her eyes. When she exhaled a long breath, her forehead was already covered with sweat:

"No problem, I asked him to return to the first floor and tell the other two that he wanted to take a rest."

"Are you sure you won't wake up?"

Miss Bayas asked, still supporting Miss Anat, but the latter seemed to have recovered. She showed them the puppet with its head almost torn off:

"I will definitely not wake up within three days. If I wake up in three days, I will become a fool and will not remember my face."

"Have the locations of the four Ring Warlocks been determined?"

Xia De also asked, and the three of them walked towards the depths of the alley.

"The one on the first floor is 'asleep' now. The one on the second floor should be the third or fourth ring, and is reading a knight novel. The one on the third floor is not up. Judging from the emotional reaction, it should be a very strong ring warlock. There is another person whom I haven't seen, but according to the doctor's information, he should be guarding the door of the ruins they excavated in the basement. That person's level is completely unknown."

"It's already pretty good. It's impossible to know everything at once."

Xia De nodded, the first step of the action went smoothly.

He took out the relic [Bordeaux Candle] from his pocket:

"Enter the printing shop."

"Are you sure you want to use this candle now? My spell can also be invisibly combined with alchemical items."

Miss Bayas asked in a low voice. Tonight, this young girl is wearing a close-fitting white shirt with bell-shaped sleeves. A row of buttons on the chest are dark gold. The waist is drawn inward, and the collar and hem are both Decorated with lace patterns. The lower body is worn in black women's trousers, which are relatively fashionable in this era, because trousers are more convenient for movement than skirts.

Her long hair was **** with a headband and tied back, exposing her two ears. She looked extremely capable.

Xia De nodded:

"Use it now. This relic is a consumable, but you can't cherish it too much. The goal tonight is to make you the chosen one, no matter what the cost, it is worth it."

The three of them continued walking inward along the alley. Under the leadership of Miss Anat, they kept choosing forks in the road, and finally came to the alley outside the east wall of the printing factory.

Asking Shade and Miss Bayas to step back, Miss Anat carefully tossed a coin. After confirming the front and back under the faint moonlight, he nodded to the two people behind him:

"Divination indicates that it is safe to move now."

Shad recited a mantra and threw away the frog legs in his hand, then held the candle and narrowed his eyes slightly, and the flame immediately lit the candle head. He disappeared completely in front of Miss Bayas and Miss Anat, and the two ladies also waited quietly under the wall.

Five seconds later, Xia De extinguished the light of the candle with his hand and appeared under the wall:

"No problem, I just jumped up and looked into the yard. No one was walking around inside, but be careful of the hounds."

"Use this."

Miss Bayas took out a small cloth bag and asked others to sprinkle the powder on themselves. The powder inside is also a kind of alchemy product, which can isolate the smell in a short time. It is a standard material for church ring magicians.

Shad held the candle that was lit again, and Miss Anat and Miss Bayas held his arms tightly on the left and right:

"Get ready!"

He bent down slightly, took a breath and jumped up suddenly. The weight of the two ladies dragged him, but they still rose into the air, then lightly climbed over the wall and landed safely in the yard.

As soon as his feet landed, something invisible like the wind suddenly jumped up from the ground. And Miss Anat immediately shook the silver bracelet on her wrist:

"Stop!"

She scolded, and the security measures arranged in the yard became ineffective under the influence of this borrowed relic.

The use of the relic caused the candle in Shade's hand to go out, but he lit it again immediately, without causing any thoughts during this period.

"Quick~"

Miss Anat urged, and she and Miss Bayas pulled the hem of Shade's clothes, and Shade led him through the yard and into the mansion.

Overhead, the silver, red and yellow moon is gradually being obscured by drifting dark clouds. Tonight was a sleepless night for Shade.
