Chapter 116: Can't look at them directly... (monthly ticket adds more updates)
Wei En calmly observed the rune patterns as thin as a finger.
The unique silver-white luster of Thrall metal shines brightly under the illumination of the middle runes. It is difficult to see clearly the engraved lines from a distance.
But when he used his body to block the light of those runes, he could see a little reddish-brown on these lines, like rust stains formed by metal rust.
Wei En carefully touched the dented lines and his body suddenly froze.
[You have touched the power of the origin of desire. Because your origin exceeds 30, you have not been eroded or polluted by the power of the origin of desire. Evaluation: You only have ten seconds... Special rewards: +10 survival points, +2 toughness level, +2 spiritual level. 】
Wei En quickly let go of his hand, his heart beating violently, and a strange flush appeared on his face, like the state of anger entering the back of his head.
The power of desire?
When he just touched the engraving, Claire, Lacey, Carly already flashed through his mind... Even Sharapova appeared, and she was still doing all kinds of intense things.
Not only that, he also saw the figures of the liaison officer and Melbell. Under gunfire, the two died tragically after being contaminated by the death characteristic.
At that moment, the desire in his heart was infinitely magnified...
Wei En's eyes became solemn as he looked at the traces of corrosion.
Even his profound original power was almost eroded and polluted. Those scholars who stayed here and worked here all year round would find it difficult to resist the pollution of the source of desire.
So, the problem with the city-state magic circle is caused by the Desire Sect?
To be precise, is it Mitra, the beloved of the Lord of Desire?
Wei En thought for a moment and then looked around at the wall in front of him. He wanted to see how many lines there were that had been eroded by the source of desire.
One, two, three...
While he stood here for a while, a prompt message would pop up on the panel from time to time.
[Because your origin exceeds 30, you successfully resisted the power of the origin of desire... Special rewards: Survival point +5, spiritual level +1, toughness level +1. ]
[...]
[...Reward: Survival points +3. 】
A total of 113 rune patterns were eroded!
Although this number is not worth mentioning compared to all the patterns in the room, its impact on the rune array cannot be ignored.
I don’t know what these lines are and which part of the runes they belong to...
Wei En looked at the lines and markings thoughtfully. Do you want to tell Yegor and the others about this discovery?
[You are scanned by Xia Di Otasilio's mental perception. Evaluation: I advise you to pretend that you haven't discovered it yet... Reward: +5 survival points. 】
As soon as he had this thought, a purple and black reminder flashed in his mind.
Is there someone watching here?
5 o'clock?
Is there a 5-point survival point bonus for mental perception?
What level of transcendent is this?
Wei En's heart sank. It seemed that there was something wrong with the magic circle here, and the strength of the person behind it was more terrifying than he imagined.
To have a strong person of this level focus on the city-state magic circle shows that they have a big plan!
Even if he wanted to say it now, he couldn't say it, otherwise he didn't know what the consequences would be...
Thinking of this, Wei En was ready to pretend to go to other places to check again.
Um?
It was only then that he noticed the information on the panel. A prompt would pop up almost every two or three minutes.
Except for the first four messages, which are special rewards, all the subsequent messages only have survival point rewards.
Reward...
Wei En turned around and glanced around, seeing everyone else gathered around the high platform to pay attention to Alicia's inspection work, and no one paid attention to him.
There are only prompts on the panel and you are not allowed to speak. Doesn’t that mean you can’t do something quietly?
It’s rare to have such a safe opportunity to get some rewards. If you don’t use it now, when will you?
With this in mind, he didn't leave. He approached the wall and pretended to observe the rune patterns, and from time to time he would touch the source of desire with his hands.
[You have touched the origin of desire...Special rewards: survival points +9, toughness level +2, spiritual level +2. 】
【...Survival point +8, toughness level +1, spiritual level +1. ]
[...]
[You have touched the power of the origin of desire. Because your origin exceeds 30, you have not been eroded or polluted by the power of the origin of desire. Comment: Are you sure you want to continue? Reward: +5 survival points. ]
After receiving more than ten special rewards in a row, Wei En stopped when only ordinary survival point rewards were left.
It won't work if I don't stop.
With every touch, those illusions of desire would appear in his mind, and as the number of times increased, the scenes became clearer and clearer.
Even later, he could clearly feel the real touch, as well as the excitement and relief after the intense experience...
If he was in such direct contact with the source of desire, he was really worried that he would not be able to help but perform the transformation of an animal on the spot.
"Wayne, have you found anything?"
"Not yet." When
Wayne heard Lacey's voice, he just half-turned and glanced at her, then quickly looked elsewhere, "I'll go check somewhere else."
" ...Let me know if you find anything."
Lacey looked at his movements, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, why was he walking in such a weird way?
"No problem."
Wei En replied casually, staring at a pair of red eyes, and walked sideways along the wall to get behind the scholars.
Fuck,
he just saw Lacey's figure, and the previous scene burst into his mind.
Wei En looked at the scholars who were busy. Gray hair, an old face full of wrinkles, and a thin figure... The more
he looked at it, the calmer he felt inside.
It wasn't until his body stopped responding that Wei En wiped the sweat from his forehead and took a deep breath.
I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to look directly at Lacey and Carly for a long time...
The damn source of desire!
Not long after, Professor Lin Qiaoya walked in and went straight to Alicia and the others, "Anything else found?"
Alicia observed the core runes bit by bit, shook her head and said, "Nothing yet... Professor, you Do you know which part of the runes has the ability to detect bone-eating insects?"
Professor Lin Qiaoya looked a little unnatural, "Sorry, I just found the previous inspection report and found that the part of the runes that detects bone-eating insects has been in the past. It was removed half a year ago."
"Half a year ago? Can't the city-state rune array be easily changed? Why do you want to remove it?" "
This was not changed by us, but by the rune scholars from Klanders. He did it. At that time, he also brought a copy of the latest city-state magic circle drawing..." "The
suggestion above is that the threat of the bone-eating mother insect is only a level two disaster, and there is no need to set up special detection runes. ."
"Then what was changed after it was changed?" Alicia stopped checking and asked doubtfully.
"It's a rune for detecting another abyssal creature," Professor Lin Qiaoya hesitated and said, "It's a rune for detecting black tide demons."
Lacey and Alicia looked at each other and asked, "You Do you still remember the name and identity of the rune scholar? And if you want to change it back, is it okay?" "
That information is available, but it is more difficult to change it back."
"Huh? Why?"
Lin Professor Gioia explained: "If you want to change the city-state magic circle, you must not only obtain the consent of Clander, but also completely stop the operation of the magic circle..."
"So, it can be changed?"
"Yes, it can, but..."
"As long as it can be changed,"
Lacey interrupted directly: "Now those bone-eating insects have parasitized a large area. If we don't respond, the entire Cass All the special city-states will fall into panic. You don’t want to see such a scene, right?”
“Is it already so critical?”
“Yes!”
Professor Lin Qiaoya thought: “I will report it to the parliament and the noble committee, and contact them at the same time. Kelland will provide a solution as soon as possible."
"This is the best. In addition,"
Lacey glanced at the scholars present, "Please also try your best to troubleshoot the problems with the magic circle, and be sure to find all the problems, otherwise ..."
"You can rest assured, I promise to repair the problem as soon as possible without affecting the operation of the city-state magic circle." Lin Qiaoya changed his previous impatience and said solemnly.
"Very well, Alicia, I'll give you a hard time."
"No problem, I'll do my best."
After saying that, Lacey waved to Wei En and others to go out.
"Professor Lin Qiaoya just explained that this city-state's array does not have the ability to detect bone-eating insects. Next, the city-state of Custer will be in big trouble." Only then did Wei En know that it was
not the part he checked . The runes do not have the ability to detect bone-eating insects, but the entire city-state array does not have this ability.
Half a year ago?
Those people planned all this half a year ago?
Wayne thought of Mateo, the Abyss sect he met in the slums yesterday, Mitra, the Desire Blessed in the Nightless City, and the reminder on the panel just now... At
present, he can be sure that the identity of the person who planned all this must not be simple!
But what is their purpose?
Don’t you just want to turn the entire city of Custer into purgatory?
Then he really needs to think about escaping.
Carly said with a worried look: "Sister Lacey, what should we do now? If we don't use the power of the city-state magic circle, will it be difficult to find those people who are parasitized by bone-eroding worms?" "Wait to check here first
. Let's talk after that, or..." Lacey looked at Wei En and said, "You take Tina back to the Secret Adjustment Department first, and synchronize the findings here with Yegor." "Once the reply is given from above, notify us here as soon as
possible Us."
At this point, Lacey took out the parchment recording the investigation and handed it to him.
"These are the lists of suspicious persons provided by Lin Qiaoya. You should also bring them to Yegor and ask him to quickly arrange for personnel to investigate."
Wei En took the parchment, hesitated for a moment, and risked reminding: "Captain, It's better to leave the inspection of the magic circle to the scholars. You and Carly had better stay outside to prevent other accidents." "
We don't know those runes," Lacey waved his hands indifferently, "Don't talk nonsense. , come back quickly."
Wei En had no choice but to pull Tina and walk out.
With such extraordinary beings staring at the magic circle, he couldn't say more. He could only hope that Lacey and the others couldn't find anything... Not long after
, they followed the guards and left the underground cave where the core magic circle was located.
Looking at the two people's backs as they left, Lacey asked: "Carly, do you think Wayne is a little strange?" "
No, he didn't seem to look at me and the captain much just now?"
"Really? Before. He will obviously glance at my place occasionally." Lacey pointed to the hanging clock hanging in front of Carly and said: "And the same at your place." "
Huh?" Carly's face showed two blushes and stammered. Said: "Captain, you, you are wrong about me, I didn't notice..." "
Marco was like this before. After fighting with me a few times, he didn't dare anymore."
Lacey said thoughtfully: " It seems that after I finish this case, I will have to find time to wrestle with Wayne a few times."
"..."
Carly has not been exposed to this aspect of education in a church school, so it is difficult for her to treat such things as Lacey normally, let alone speak out.
Gladiator... Well, come on, Wayne.
...
...
After leaving the small building where the city-state magic circle was located, Wei En looked around and could not find the mechanical wheel car he came on. It seemed that it had been requisitioned by Minister Yegor.
"Tina, you were inside just now, did you find anything?"
"Tina, no." Tina
's expression remained the same, but since she left the Secret Adjustment Department, the number of times she shook the clown doll increased a lot.
The two button eyes of the clown doll were off the thread...
Wayne nodded and said to himself: Even the origin of desire was found on the panel. It seems that there should be no other abnormalities here.
"Let's go."
At this time, a carriage stopped in front of the two people.
A coachman in a cheap dress looked at the two men and took off his hat and saluted, "We meet again, Mr. Investigator." "
Oh, it's you."
Wei En looked at the familiar figure on the carriage. It was the man who sent him there before. The coachman who went to Hacienda Serres was, yes, a Vazquez.
"Nice to see you again, Mr. Investigator, do you need my service?" "
I just want to go to Dumitru District."
"Secret Adjustment Department?"
Wei En pulled Tina into the carriage and smiled. He smiled: "Yes, please hurry up, I have something urgent."
"No problem."
The coachman held the reins with both hands and turned around to remind: "Please sit still, Mr. Investigator, and this silent lady." ."
As he waved the reins, the two ponies ran towards the Secret Adjustment Division on their four strong short legs.
There were some things on his mind that made Wei En no longer in the mood to talk.
It happened that the coachman was also focused on controlling the acceleration or deceleration of the carriage, and for a moment it seemed that the only sound around was the clatter of horse hooves on the stone road.
[You are targeted by Maciej Kohli’s murderous intent. Comment: Another poor creature parasitized by bone-eating insects. Reward: Survival point +1. ]
[...]
Oh?
Are there even those parasites here?
Wayne checked the newly added information on the panel. After scanning around, his mental perception spread to the surroundings.
A man in armor, 30 meters away.
100 meters away, a woman with stiff arms and legs.
Distance...
Are there parasites in those noble manors?
Just within the range of his perception, Wayne discovered more than a dozen parasites, some of which were in the manor separated by a wall.
Unexpectedly, there are parasites even here in Natoli, so the situation in other places is probably even worse.
Wei En withdrew his mental perception, looked at the coachman in front of him thoughtfully, and asked, "Have you or your friends encountered anything special recently?" "What are you referring to, Mr. Investigator?
"
"Everyone."
The coachman was silent for a moment, then slowed down the carriage, and said in a slightly bitter voice: "Yesterday, three acquaintances of mine died at home." "Two of them the day before yesterday. Three days ago
, There is one..."
"Stop," Wei En had to interrupt his report, "Why did they all die?" "
Oh, I'm sorry. Too many things have happened these days, and my emotions have been affected a bit. Impact. Although I know very well that if I want to survive, I must maintain a clear mind and an optimistic attitude, but..." "
It doesn't matter, please continue."
"The three people yesterday live in the Ruhr neighborhood not far from the Laos neighborhood. They just moved there, and I even gave little Harry a quill..." "When
I arrived, All three of them have been beaten to pieces by the city guards, and there is that kind of mucus that can corrode people everywhere..."
Wei En listened to his ramble and thought helplessly: Compared with most people in Custer City State, The living space for them Vazquez people is terrible.
However, he also roughly understood that most of these people were contaminated by the red moon and turned into aberrations and died.
"Is there anyone who looks normal, but whose behavior or speech is obviously different from before?"
"Speech, behavior?" The coachman thought for a moment and said, "There are many..." "
A lot?"
"Yes, it seems. In just over ten days, many people who have just moved to the Laos neighborhood from the villages in the north have changed a lot."
Wei En's eyes narrowed, "How many people are there?"
"I don't know the specifics. But every day, dozens or hundreds of people pass the city-state review."
At this point, the coachman turned around and looked at him, "Mr. Investigator, are you asking this because something happened recently?" "
...Indeed, there is. "Wei En hesitated for a moment, then simply explained: "In the next period of time, try to go out as little as possible if you have nothing to do."
"Out... during the day as well?"
"Yes, during the day as well."
The coachman was a little distressed, but he still nodded with a wry smile, " I think you are right. There are indeed a few people who go out during the day and come back changed." "They
didn't say anything when I asked them. They looked at me as if they were looking at a piece of raw meat, which is very scary..."
"Also try to have as little contact with them as possible," Wei En reminded again.
Now he was basically sure that most of the people who lived in or frequented the slums were parasitized by bone-eroding worms.
According to the coachman's answer, the number was at least a thousand.
Plus the workers in the Idrisu neighborhood and the parasites in other neighborhoods... Two thousand, three thousand, or four thousand?
In short, it is not far from the five thousand people that Claire said would be sacrificed.
Thinking of this, Wei En felt a chill in his heart.
If the abyss sect really completes the sacrifice ceremony, a terrifying abyss creature comparable to a third-level disaster will appear, and the entire city-state may turn into an abyss...then
what should he do? ?
"Mr. Investigator, thank you very much for your reminder. I will hide at home for a while. Fortunately, when I left the Laos neighborhood, I found a house with a basement." "Well, be careful.
"
Wei En nodded, looking at the pedestrians outside the car who looked normal, chatting and laughing, and felt that the city-state seemed too quiet today.
Wasn't what happened at the factory yesterday published in the newspaper?
"Your destination has arrived, Mr. Investigator." The coachman directed the pony to slow down and stop steadily at the door of the Secret Service Department. He said respectfully, "Thank you again for the reminder." "You're welcome." Wei
En
said He took out two 1-shilling coins and put them in the box at his hand, "I hope to see you again next time." "
Me too."
Wei En nodded to him and took Tina into the secret blend. Secretary, knocked directly on the door of Minister Yegor's office.
"Please come in."
Wei En pushed the door open and saw Yegor signing a very beautiful name on the parchment with a quill. It's hard to imagine that such a rough man like him could write such beautiful handwriting.
"Huh? Did Lacey want you to come and inform me about something?"
When Yegor saw them coming in, he guessed that the city-state magic circle had undergone new changes, and the ferocious scar on his face squirmed unconsciously. .
"Yes, Minister."
Wei En simply repeated Professor Lin Qiaoya's words, then took out the list of suspicious persons and placed it on the table, "The captain hopes to get a reply from above as soon as possible." "Has the rune array been changed? Oh, I understand,
"
Yegor frowned and thought for a while, then pointed to the parchment and said, "Take the list back, and go and investigate with Marco first." "
Then Captain Lacey is still waiting for a reply, and there is also a magic circle. ..."
"Don't worry about matters over the magic circle. The senior management will make an assessment." Yegor waved his hand, "Go and do your work."
Wei En hesitated, wanting to remind him that someone was there. He secretly stared at the magic circle and didn't say anything about the Desire Sect's erosion and pollution of the magic circle.
And he really couldn't find a suitable reason to reveal these findings. But since Yegor said so, I think the Secret Service Department should know the urgency of this matter, or do they know who is behind it?
Thinking of this, Wayne picked up the parchment and pulled Tina out of the office.
When he opened the door to the office, he saw Marco and Lidia looking through the case files they had investigated previously.
However, seeing that both of them had disgusting expressions on their faces, it must have been a "friendly" exchange.
"Wayne, you're back. Where are Lacey and the others?"
"We encountered a situation."
Wayne walked over and explained Yegor's arrangements. He pointed to the two names on the parchment and said, "A card A student from St. Mary's School, and the other is a professor from a church school."
"Leave the student to you. I'll take Lydia to find that professor."
Marco asked Lydia to record the professor's information, "Captain? How is the situation there?"
"Some people found that the runes for detecting bone-eating insects have been changed, and some rune nodes are not activated." "
Is it so serious? It seems that the captain's guess yesterday was right."
"Well," Wei En nodded, "The situation is a little worse than expected." "
Then hurry up and try to get the investigation results back before you get off work. It's best to find the person who did the trick, and it can also reduce the number of people who did it a lot. Trouble."
With that said, Wei En took Tina and left the Secret Adjustment Department with Marco and the others.
At the door, four people rushed to different positions, one on the left and one on the right.
The young rune scholar's name is William Fries. He is a student of Professor Linjoa. He has just graduated from Custer Public School and lives alone at No. 21 Ruhr Block... Wei En looked at the phone in his hand
. Information, the west side of the Ruhr neighborhood is not that far away.
...
...
At the same time, in the city that never sleeps.
"There seem to be a lot of people coming next door." Mitra was sitting at her desk wearing a tulle skirt, showing off her beauty.
"I already know."
A slightly magnetic voice sounded, but except for Mitra, there was no one else in the room.
"Do you need me to pause the erosion of the totem first?"
"Huh? Haven't you stopped it yet?"
Mitra said with a smile, "Without your order, I don't dare to act at will."
"...Please, stop it immediately. Although Xia Di is watching, it's best to go unnoticed and save him from having to clean it up again." "As you command,
my lovely lord."
"Mitra,"
then The owner of the voice was not happy because of her respect, and said slightly threateningly: "I hope you won't do unnecessary things." "
Sir, you are worrying too much."
"Humph, I will tell you after those people leave. What to do next."
"Everything follows your will."
"!"
Seeing him leaving, Mitra stretched out her hand and hooked her fingers, and saw a half-human-tall statue appearing in front of her out of thin air.
The statue looked like a terrifying spider, with six thick and barbed legs supporting its huge body.
A belly similar to the tail of a bee dragged at the bottom, and several small spiders came out from there, as if they had just been born.
The upper body of the statue is human-shaped, but it is made up of countless twisted tentacles, all the way to its neck.
And on its face, there are four mouths, one inside the other, giving the impression that it has several extra chins.
But its eyes are extremely charming, like the upper part of the head of the most beautiful girl specially found, with long hair hanging down to the tail...
Mitra stared at the statue in front of her and curled her lips unconsciously, No matter how many times I see it, I still find it ugly.
...
...
In less than twenty minutes, Wei En brought Tina to the Ruhr neighborhood.
On the way, he bought two newspapers, a Custer Parliamentary News and a Trade Union Newspaper.
But until the end, he couldn't find any word about parasites in these more than ten newspapers.
Only then did Wayne realize that no wonder the people in the city-state were doing everything as usual. It turned out that they had no idea what happened in the Idrisu neighborhood yesterday.
This seemed extremely abnormal, but also made him feel very reasonable.
What is abnormal is that the city-state's top officials did not increase manpower to investigate the location of the parasite. What is reasonable is that they did not publish relevant reports to avoid panic among the city-state residents.
It's just that for things like this, it's not advisable to cover one's ears and steal the bell.
Wayne rubbed his forehead and smoothed his frown.
The current intelligence information is too little, and it is difficult for him to deduce the plans of the city-state parliament, the noble committee, the various authorities, and the churches.
I don't even know the secret behind this matter.
"Just take it one step at a time, the big deal..."
Wei En sighed and followed the information on the parchment to find the young scholar's residence - a two-story building.
[You are scanned by Poulsen Hekme's mental perception. Rating: Be careful. Reward: Survival Points +2. 】
Huh?
Psychic perception, be careful?
This was the first time that Wei En saw someone who had the panel prompt 'be careful' just after being swept by spiritual power.
Usually, such words will appear on the panel when someone is targeted by the opponent's murderous intent.
Poulsen...
Hmm, I seem to have heard this name somewhere?
Wei En thought for a moment, is it him? The favored person of the Abyss Sect?
He has not been in this world for a long time, and he has not come into contact with many people or heard many names.
Just thinking about it briefly, he remembered that when exchanging information with people in the Nightmare Realm Tower last night, someone said that "Polson, the beloved of the Abyss Sect, traveled from the Western Continent to the Northern Continent to look for the prophet."
The Abyss Sect... It seems that he may really be the favored one of the Abyss Sect.
Wei En looked around and saw that this place was still three streets away from the place where the bone-eating mother worm was found yesterday. Even the Golden Street was closer than Laos.
It's reasonable for the favored one to appear not far from here... bummer.
The straight-line distance is more than ten kilometers, unless...
Wei En thought of a possibility, and felt even more panicked in his heart. No, no, don't scare yourself, there is no such thing as a coincidence.
Then, he knocked on the door calmly, and his spiritual sense penetrated into the house.
No matter what, let's finish the investigation task first and leave quickly.
Since the other party is not locked with murderous intent, don't mess up your position to avoid attracting the other party's attention again.
Um?
Being blocked from perception?
Wei En frowned, he couldn't be so unlucky, could he?
It is possible for a young scholar who is proficient in runes to set up a spiritual power shielding circle at home, but it is definitely not something that an ordinary family living in the Ruhr neighborhood can afford.
Maybe, maybe, should, he won the jackpot!
Squeak.
At this time, the door was opened from the inside.
A tall and thin young man wearing a black robe, with messy black hair and a pair of brass-framed glasses, looked at him and Tina blankly.
"You, investigators? Are you here to find me?"
"Mr. Viliam?"
"It's me, you really are here to find me." Viliam looked at them and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Excuse me Is there something wrong?"
"Go in and talk?"
Wei En knew that there was a magic circle in this room that shielded mental perception, and it happened to avoid the perception of Poulsen.
"Please, please come in."
Viliam hurriedly gave way. After Wei En came in, he closed the door, squeezed out a smile and said, "Excuse me, how can I help you."
Wei En glanced around, It was a very ordinary layout, with only a table and four chairs on the first floor, a simple storage cabinet in the corner, and kitchen facilities on the other side.
"To put it simply, there is something wrong with the rune array. I need to find out about it from you." "
Ah? There is something wrong with the array? What is the problem? Did the teacher ask you to come to me?"
Vilia Mu's eyes widened in surprise. The thick lenses made his eyes look even bigger.
"Sit down and talk,"
Wei En pulled Tina to sit down at the table and waved, "You need to ask Professor Lin Qiaoya for specific questions. I'm here to ask you a few questions." "You
. Say, you say.”
Viliam sat across from the two of them. His eyes were unconsciously attracted to Tina, and there was a bit of fear in his eyes.
"It's like this. The city-state magic circle has been tampered with, and some rune nodes have no effect. Do you know about this situation?" "Are there any rune nodes that are activated?
Are they core runes or other ones? If they are other , that is, those rune nodes that are not on the high platform, are not activated in real time, and can only appear in the city-state..."
"Core runes," Wei En interrupted.
Viliam was stunned for a moment, "Impossible! No matter which core rune node is not activated, the entire magic circle will not be effective. Unless the entire magic circle is tampered with, such a situation will occur." "But
then The magic circle needs to be deactivated, which will take at least a few days. There is no way no one will find out..."
Everything has been tampered with?
Wayne retrieved this knowledge of runes in his mind and found that the above content was exactly the same as what Viliam had described.
Is it possible to modify the city-state magic circle without deactivating it?
Um?
As his question arises, the knowledge of runes automatically gives him the answer.
One is to change the rune patterns and bypass the rune nodes in a very short period of time. It should be noted that the new rune array must comply with the unity principle of the array.
The second is to use the isolation circle to block out those rune nodes and then modify them. Need to pay attention to...
The third thing is...
Wei En looked at the more than ten standard answers that came to his mind, and the veins on his forehead jumped.
Fuck, since there is such a method, why is there still an explanation that you can't modify the runes if you keep using the magic circle?
This is a rune array rule formulated by Hector True, a top scholar of runes, in 1148 of the Third Era out of the principle of rigor.
Wei En: "..."
Damn it, academic experts do a lot of harm to people.
"Is there any problem? Mr. Investigator?" Viliam noticed that he was distracted.
"No, it's nothing."
Wei En shook his head and continued to ask: "Second question, during the time you were working in the city-state magic circle, did you find anything abnormal?" "Abnormal, um,
you mean Which aspect?"
"Has anyone behaved abnormally, such as asking to stay on duty, or asking for a break at unreasonable times, etc."
Viliam thought for a while, "No, everyone is quite normal. They completed their respective tasks in accordance with the regulations."
"What about you?"
"Me? I didn't either... huh? Mr. Investigator, do you suspect that I tampered with the city-state formation?" "What do you think?
You just said When you enter and work there, something goes wrong with the magic circle. Isn't it worthy of suspicion?" Wei En asked, staring into his eyes.
I always felt that something was not right about the young man in front of me...
Although he wore thick glasses, his eyes were not as dull as myopia, but bright and clear.
Moreover, his hair is messy, but his body is very clean, at least it can be seen from his neck that it is clean.
"No, it's not me, I didn't."
Viliam waved his hands repeatedly and said in a panic: "Mr. Investigator, I have only been there a few days, and I haven't even started to touch the magic circle yet..." "I haven't started to touch it yet
. ?" Wei En's face turned cold, "That's not what your teacher, Professor Lin Qiaoya said, you are lying!" "..."
Viliam opened his mouth, looking like he couldn't believe it.
[You are scanned by Reinhard Tania's mental perception. Reward: Survival point +1. 】
Huh? ?
Wei En's eyes changed slightly. There was a runic circle here that blocked mental perception. It was impossible for people outside to sense him. So there was only...
him, Reinhardt?
Unexpectedly, after cheating casually, I actually discovered something.
"So, how are you going to explain your work?"
Viliam, no, it should be Reinhardt, the surprise on his face slowly subsided, he raised his hand, took off his glasses, and looked at him calmly.
"Yes, the city-state magic circle was indeed manipulated by me..."
Click.
Wei En instantly pulled out a musket and pointed it at his head, signaling to the white-haired girl on the side: "Tina, stay away." "
Tina, I know."
Tina stood behind him holding the clown doll. He stuck his head out and stared at Reinhard with his blank eyes.
"Mr. Investigator, you are really... I am just an ordinary person, I don't have to be like this."
"Ordinary people cannot replace other people's identities." Wei En said coldly.
"Replacement?" Reinhardt was stunned for a moment, "How did you tell?" "
So, where is the real Viliam?"
Seeing that he didn't answer, Reinhardt didn't care. He was even interested. Looking at the musket in his hand, "This is the standard weapon of the Secret Adjustment Department, right? It's very well made..."
Bang.
Wayne shot decisively.
A bullet passed by Reinhardt's ear and hit the storage cabinet behind him.
"Well, the sound of this gun is a bit loud. It can be improved."
Wei En looked at his still calm appearance and asked, "Aren't you going to answer my question?"
Reinhardt smiled, " As you said, I replaced Viliam and took the opportunity to change some of the rune cores."
"What else?"
"No, this is my only mission."
"Mission? Who gave it to you? Mission?" Wei En frowned, he was one step closer to the truth.
Reinhardt looked at him with a half-smile, "I can't tell you this. If I say it, the game won't be fun." "
Desperate Cult?" Wei En stared into his eyes and said a name casually.
"What is that?"
"Red Moon Church?"
"What are you asking for?" Reinhard looked at him in confusion.
"Desire Sect?"
Wei En saw his fingers move subconsciously, but there was no change on his face.
Um?
Not even a member of the Desire Sect?
"Abyss Cult?"
Huh?
Pupils constricted.
Are they from the Abyss Sect? !
Wei En's heart was shaken. He suddenly thought that if Reinhardt was a member of the Abyss Religion, then the mental perception he just encountered at the door...
was not good!
"Follow me back to the Secret Service."
"I'm not going anywhere, Mr. Investigator." Reinhardt didn't know he was exposed yet, so he pretended to be confused and asked: "You seem to know something, just those few Question?"
"Ask me again, are you leaving?"
"No."
Bang.
Wayne shot decisively.

Bang, bang, bang...
Wei En noticed this prompt message, and without any pause in his hand movements, a series of bullets were fired.

"What are you going to do to my men?" "

Wei En looked at the man wearing a black mask who appeared in front of him instantly and stood in front of Reinhardt. A stream of sweat slowly dripped down to the ground. .
Now, there is some trouble...
