Chapter 222: Undercurrents are surging
After walking out of the "Golden Tulip", Captain James seems to have left, after all, because of the previous murder of the members of the "Gate of Hades", there must be a lot of follow-up to the police department.
At this time, Chris's mood was a little complicated, he finally stepped into the intermediate sequence of the extraordinary world, and then the task assigned to him by the corps was to track down the members of the "Gate of Hades" with him, and he didn't have to think about it to know that there must be a huge danger.
However, Chris, who has always been cautious and can even be said to be a little timid, did not hesitate at all this time.
If it had been last week, Chris wouldn't have been able to guarantee that he would have accepted the assignment in peace, but he had just met the ...... the other day Lady Sophia.
The mother of her own body, the woman who gave up her life alone in her dream and guarded the baby.
For the first time, Chris had doubts about his identity as a traverser, why did he have such a big mood swing and be so sad after seeing her. And Chris felt that the other soul in his body didn't have much mood swings.
What Chris didn't expect was that this kind of doubt finally came to an end tonight!
......
Thousands of miles away from the capital, the bustling city of Atlantas.
Archduchess Catherine was in her office in the administration building, flipping through the materials. Due to personal habits, there are no secretaries and servants in the office.
Today, Catherine wears a delicately cut blue ruffle dress with croissant sleeves, a fluffy skirt that resembles a wave, and white lace trims embroidered on the neckline and cuffs. He wore long blond hair neatly coiled at the back, a gauze hat inlaid with blue ribbons and tulips, and light blue tulle gloves on both gloves.
Even though the Grand Duchess was middle-aged, the years did not seem to have left the slightest trace on her delicate cheeks. Only a very small number of high-level officials know that this beautiful female politician is a demigod of Sequence 4.
And just after Chris swallowed the "mechanical expert" potion, the spirit in Catherine's body suddenly jumped, and at the same time, a vague vision appeared in her mind.
Bang dang!
Catherine's pen fell on the desk, and she didn't pay attention to it, only to see her graceful body tremble slightly.
Because just now, she saw a man engraved in the deepest part of her life again, Grace Field.
I saw a faint spirituality flashing around her, and then silver characters appeared on Catherine's slender fingers, and they jumped from one to the other, and continued to permutate and combine until finally they did not change.
Catherine's eyes were now completely filled with silver spirituality, and she was using her powerful extraordinary ability to calculate the odds that Grace was still alive.
However, the final result made this powerful demigod, who was already considered the top combat power in the human world, lose his mind for a long time.
Those thousands of silver characters, in the end, under her terrifying computing power and push power, formed a final result, that is, the chance that Grace Field is still alive is 100%!
Seeing the final data of the silver characters, Catherine suddenly seemed to lose all her strength, collapsed in her chair, and muttered:
"You're still alive...... You're really alive!"
Then Catherine stood up, she wanted to leave here immediately, and went to find the man who had been thinking about it day and night, but considering her identity, Catherine made a decision, and then a strange scene appeared:
I saw Catherine's body gradually tear apart, and in a mixture of light and shadow, the female archduke was torn into two identical two!
Whether it is the body or the subtle expression, even the clothes on the body are completely consistent.
Then one of them sat down in a chair, picked up the pen on the table and continued to work, while the other quickly left the place incognito.
On the day after her last meeting with Joseph, Catherine rode in a carriage to St. Peter's Basilica, the headquarters of the Church of the Gods of Machines and Wisdom in Atlantus.
In this church, Catherine met with the archbishop, who had been a friend for many years, and discussed many things at length.
One of them is who was behind the design to lure Grace's cruise ship into the uncharted area? In fact, Catherine already had a vague answer to this question.
......
And in a small three-story building with all kinds of precious flowers and plants, an ordinary-looking blonde man stood in front of the window, dressed in a sophisticated tuxedo and holding a glass of white wine in his hand. On his index finger, he wears a ring set with a huge sapphire.
He was Catherine and Grace's friend: Joseph Brooke.
Of course, if Chris were here now, he might have called out another name: John Brooke!
The former number one analyst of Federenburg Bank, the mastermind behind the Black Feather case, Chris walked with Barot on the deserted street in his dream divination, the man who told Chris the truth about the "experiment".
At this time, the sapphire ring on his finger was shining with a strange light.
His eyes flashed with a pale golden light, and the corners of his mouth outlined a gentle smile:
"Have you finally activated the Wheel of Fortune?, old man, it looks like I'm going to kill you again...... Finally, it's time to kill you. ”
......
In the evening in Federenburg, Chris hurried back to his bedroom after dinner to experience his newfound extraordinary abilities.
First of all, the spiritual strength in his body can be said to be ten times that of the "Arcanist" stage, no wonder the teacher once said that after stepping into the intermediate sequence, don't think about skipping the level of battle, and run away as soon as you encounter someone with a high sequence level.
Chris can now understand the gap in between.
The second is the most important spiritual vision, which can be said to be the most intuitive manifestation of spiritual intensity.
If in the past Chris only thought that his eyesight was better, now it can be compared to a "telescope" and a "perspective lens", at least he can now "see" things within 10 meters of his surroundings.
Of course, this is only the realm of ordinary people's lives, like here there are other extraordinary beings, if he unfolds his spiritual vision, even if the other party's sequence level is not as good as his own, as long as the difference is not big, it is easy to be discovered by the other party.
So Chris carefully avoided his colleagues' rooms and began to "observe" the streets and pedestrians outside the gate.
Once he had mastered this ability, Chris began to study the extraordinary abilities at the heart of the "Mechanic Expert".
Chris began to work his spirituality, feeling the difference from before.
