Chapter 402 401. Come, Let’s Kill Each Other!
There was a lot of noise outside the door. Dorothy listened carefully for a while and then said with certainty, "It's a banquet outside, and the scenes of that day are being recreated here."
Recreating the scenes of the past is not impossible for a place where the rules have changed and are different from the normal physical world.
Mo Cheng immediately became vigilant, "If we were to recreate the scene of that day, then I would not be present in that scene."
"There is also no me now. I heard the attendants discussing things about me just now. Obviously there is another [me] here."
Dorothy was very decisive, "Don't meet other people. Let's go to the city lord's room to look for clues. Ignore the others. First, find where the instruments are hidden. Then we will investigate the cause of the city lord's death and where the killers came from." .”
The delegation was dead and only Dorothy was left, but she still planned to take the instruments back. She knew how much the academy had paid for the research on [Elemental Mage].
And as the leader of the delegation, the death of the delegation is nothing, but the failure to bring the equipment back is a problem.
After all, the most important task this time is to bring back the seized instruments.
Either bring the instrument back intact, or let half of Napa Harbor fly into the sky.
Mo Cheng was not familiar with what happened that night, so he wisely handed over the control to Dorothy.
The two waited for a while, during which Mo Cheng used [Ghost Walk] to observe outside, and then took the opportunity to walk out with Dorothy.
Mo Cheng first used [Seventy-two Transformations] to transform into a nobleman wearing a luxurious dress. Dorothy did not need to disguise herself, because she herself was a guest at this banquet.
The two met many attendants and nobles along the way, but the other party only nodded politely to them. It was obvious that Mo Cheng and Dorothy's appearance here was not an accident.
Under the guidance of Dorothy, the two of them consciously avoided others and arrived at the city lord's study.
The door was locked. Mo Cheng first let go of his senses and made sure no one was inside, then pulled out a piece of his hair, and then poured holy light into it to turn it into a long, hard needle.
He pulled his hair into the keyhole a few times and heard a "click" sound before the door lock was opened.
"You know a lot about the skills of a stalker."
Dorothy knew what kind of locks were used among the nobles. It was undoubtedly very difficult to unlock them easily. That was a skill that only master stalkers had.
And Mo Cheng...
Dorothy could no longer tell what kind of profession this man who was accustomed to wearing priest uniforms, using holy light and magic, and having strong fighting skills had.
Even now that she saw that Mo Cheng had good sneaker lock-picking skills, Dorothy felt that it was not a big deal.
"Ah, ah, you have to know that when you are having a tryst with a woman, being able to open and lock doors and windows with one hand is a very practical skill."
Mo Cheng started making up stories without looking back. Dorothy had called him "Zacheng" a lot of times anyway, so he just made up stories to make his character more consistent.
Pushing open the door and walking in, Dorothy immediately started flipping through the documents on the desk. There would be no alarms or traps in a daily office like this.
Dorothy flipped through the pages very quickly, looking at the documents above at a glance. There were many documents and they involved all aspects.
As a giant seaport city, the Lord of Napa Harbor has an unimaginable amount of affairs.
Mo Cheng did not disturb Dorothy. He stood behind the door and quietly let go of his senses to ensure that no one would find them in the study.
But soon, he noticed something was wrong.
He [feels] it.
There is a person outside the door who puts his hand on the door handle and can push the door open with just a little force.
But the person outside the door gently let go of his hand and stood in front of the door like Mo Cheng.
Both parties felt the presence of someone behind the door, but neither party took action.
Because the opponent has given him an indescribable pressure, and with this pressure alone, Mo Cheng can already feel how strong the opponent is.
An absolute strength!
"...With power no less than mine, is he the strong man of this city lord's mansion itself? Or is he the killer of that day? Or...is he just the BOSS of this [dungeon] itself?"
The world suddenly became quiet, and Mo Cheng could feel the breathing of the person behind the door, and the power rising and falling with the breathing.
The other party is very strong!
Dorothy behind him was still flipping through documents. She didn't seem to sense the situation outside the door. Mo Cheng knew that with the power of the people behind the door, having one more Dorothy would not help.
"friend……"
The person behind the door suddenly spoke in a very soft voice that only Mo Cheng could hear, "Did you find what you were looking for?"
What's the purpose of the other party's visit? Is the other party a friend or an enemy?
Mo Cheng didn't know this, but since the other party spoke first, Mo Cheng was happy to use words to delay the time, "I'm sorry, it may take a while to find it. Is there anything you want to find? Do you want to come in and join us? try to find?"
The person outside the door will definitely not be the owner of the study, because the studies were locked before this. If the other person is the owner of the study, then he should not have touched the handle with his hand just now, but inserted the key with his hand. keyhole.
"perhaps……"
The person outside the door did not agree to Mo Cheng's invitation, but gave another suggestion, "You can tell me what you are looking for. Maybe I will know."
"Ah, what I'm looking for is very simple."
Although there was a smile on Mo Cheng's face, he was calm in his heart. The conversation between the two parties was just for testing, "Maybe you don't believe it, but the owner of this house will die soon, and I am here to investigate his murderer. "
"No, I believe it." The person outside the door had no doubts, but his tone fluctuated slightly, "But I am curious as to why you know my next actions."
At this moment, Mo Cheng sensed fluctuations in the opponent's mind, and he punched suddenly.
A punch was thrown out, the punch was so powerful that it was like the roar of a ferocious beast that shattered the wooden door and the figure behind the door.
"Dorothy, have you found it? The murderers are here!"
Mo Cheng looked at the blasted door with a grim smile, his muscles all over his body began to tighten, and his body spontaneously entered the battle preheating state, "LUCKY, you just happened to meet the guy you wanted to kill, you are really lucky."
With the words, Mo Cheng turned into a storm and smashed the entire mansion into pieces. His fists were like a sacred mountain descending from the sky, killing all things.
His intuition told him that he had already met the culprit who caused his failure at this moment.
So there is only one thing to do next.
"Hahahahaha, come on, let's kill each other!"
