Chapter 204: Listening Room

Jacques observed and saw that there was no one else nearby, so he enlarged the light door and dodged out, and when the two of them were completely unconscious, two hand knives fell on the sides of their necks at the same time, and the two men who were busy writing fainted on the table at the same time.

Jacques picked up the notes on the table, and after a cursory look, he saw that they were all words with no beginning or end.

Each paragraph begins with a string of numbers, followed by the time, and then the content, such as who did what, met with whom, did business, and heard about something.

Reading a few of them, Jacques found that there were three references to them several times, the haunting of Benafort Manor, the negotiating team of the Silver Dragon Kingdom, and the murder of the officers of the City Guard on the streets that never sleeped.

It's just that a lot of the accounts are a bit nonsense.

The Four Great Masters vs. Evil Spirits?Phew!

The Silver Dragon Divine Kingdom begs to pay tribute?

The boy slashed from the east end of the street to the west end of the street with a knife?

Jacques took off one of the men's earmuffs and placed them on his head, only to hear what appeared to be a small talk between a man and a woman, and the content of the gossip was actually the man's income from a plantation in the country.

Jacques immediately understood that the principle of this thing was similar to that of the source stone amplifier, except that the radio device was hidden in a certain room or something, and this was only the last terminal of sound transmission, so the small hole in the wall was the connection between the different rooms.

This is the Moulin Rouge's special eavesdropping room, well, listening room!

So Jacques pulled out the connection cable and took turns plugging it in on dozens of connections, listening to them one by one.

Most of them were silent, with only a few people talking, mostly a man and a woman, and even the terrible screams of the two men being heard fighting.

But it was one by one that Jacques finally heard a familiar voice through one of the connections, it was Storm speaking!

It seems that this eavesdropping room is even listening to Storm's reception room, and Jacques is overjoyed and listens quietly to what Storm has to say.

Storm's voice: "...... Are you sure Kane is staying in Team Fortress?"

The woman's voice seemed to be Eliza: "A telegram from my men just sent that, half an hour ago Paul had entered the Legion Fortress with an old cowboy, and Paul had just left alone. My man had been involved in spying on Paul before, and he knew Paul, so he sent the report. ”

Storm: "I think Paul and Kane escaped from me and went to the Corps Fortress. Originally, I thought he was going to escape Yorktown by boat overnight, but I didn't expect to go to the legion to ask for protection. ”

- Sure enough, it's for Mr. Kane!

Eliza: "Mr. Storm is very skillful, but I didn't expect them to escape, which shows that Paul is also a cunning and abnormal fellow." But this time we have his son, and we are not afraid that he will not give in......"

- I've escaped!

Storm: "Huh...... You have only come to the New World in the past ten years, and you don't know how strong that Paul is, don't hurt his son, give that kid good food and drink, and arrange it for him whether he wants to gamble for money or play with women.

I'll negotiate with Paul, let the people who are watching the bar get back, don't be discovered, and let Paul follow the telegraph line to find here. He already knows today that we have someone to spy on him. ”

- It turns out that they used telegraph to deliver news, no wonder they moved so fast, and as soon as Father and Kane set out, Storm appeared by the river to intercept them. It turned out that when I arrived, my father had just run away, and it seemed that I was in trouble, and I almost became a hostage threatening him.

Eliza: "Sir, I heard you mean that this Paul may return to the 'Order' in the future?"

Storm: "Yes, let me tell you, he's a core disciple like me, do you understand? Maybe in a few years he will be a member of the Council of Elders, and Rupert can come out and provoke him, anyway, he is the Great Elder's man." But you can't, you are our outer disciple, and our lineage and Paul's lineage have been advancing and retreating together for hundreds of years. ”

Eliza: "By the way, Mr. Storm, there is an outer disciple of the Nature Department who has just arrived in Yorktown, and he has come over tonight, saying that there is information to be handed over. Because tonight's events are more important, Gaia asked her to stay here first, and wanted to wait until you were free. ”

Storm: "Nature's disciple? What's the matter?"

Eliza: "I heard that it is related to the newly established Silver Dragon Divine Kingdom, you see ......"

β€”β€”Outer Disciple of the Department of Nature?Arrived Today?Silver Dragon Divine Kingdom?Could it be someone from the negotiation team?

Jacques was shocked, there were also people from the Mithril Society in the negotiation team!

It was this slight stunned that Jacques, who had bowed his head before, moved his gaze up a little, and saw a shadow moving on the wall, which was the shadow reflected by the gas lamp behind him.

- Someone behind you!

Jacques immediately dodged sideways, and at the same time as his body moved, a hairy thick arm passed through the place where he had just stood, and slammed into the wall, which immediately smashed a pit, and the originally neatly arranged holes turned into smashed copper pipes remaining in the pit, and Jacques also let out a sharp hiss with the listening equipment, like a scream before death.

Jacques clawed down the earmuffs on his head, and he could see the guy who had sneaked up on him.

That deformed man who caught the fat orange on the boat!

The deformed man named Mackay missed the blow, muttering that he didn't know what he was talking about, but when he turned his head to look at Jacques, his eyes revealed a bit of fierceness, as if he regarded Jacques who was eavesdropping on him as an enemy who did not share the sky.

Mackay's other punch soon swung again, the space in this room was small, Jacques and Mackay were almost close to each other, and Mackay's fist was so strong that Jacques had no room to dodge, so he had to use all his strength to block.

The right arm was punched hard by McKay, and the left arm was not idle, and a straight punch was thrown into McKay's face.

However, Mackay didn't dodge, opened his big mouth and bit Jacques's fist, remembering the sharp teeth of Mackay that he had seen through Fat Orange's perspective, Jacques never dared to let him bite, forcing him to urgently withdraw his fist, and at the same time kicked out and kicked Mackay's body.

Mackay also used his arm to block Jacques' front kicks, but Jacques still had some advantage in terms of power, kicking Mackay back two steps and backing away from Jacques.

At this time, Jacques wanted to seize the opportunity to draw the knife, and as soon as his right hand pressed the hilt of the long knife, Mackay, who retreated, flew up again, and his two thick arms were raised above his head, smashing at Jacques from top to bottom.

It was too late to draw the knife, and Jacques simply lowered his head and rushed forward, crashing into Mackay's arms.

Mackay's fists still fell, slamming into Jacques's back, and Jacques felt a shock all over his body and a sweet throat.

But Jacques didn't lose his momentum, his head stuck under Mackay's armpit, his shoulder against Mackay's lower abdomen, pushing him against the wall behind him.

"Bang!"

A large hole was knocked out of the wall, and Mackay landed on his back while Jacques lay on top of him, and the two fell together on the ground next door.

Jacques hurriedly stood up, and Mackay, who was on the ground, was not lightly injured, lying on his back and making a strange grunt.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jacques quickly pulled out his long knife, spit out a mouthful of blood in his mouth, and stabbed it with his backhand, killing Mackay on the ground.

But with a knife down, Jacques actually pierced the air, and the long knife was inserted two inches into the ground, but Mackay, who was lying on the ground, was nowhere to be seen.

Jacques was horrified, remembering the strange movement of Mackay on the ship, and even Fat Orange couldn't figure out how Mackay disappeared and how he appeared.

After only being stunned for a moment, Jacques felt something strange in front of him, and hurriedly raised his left arm to block his face.

A large foot kicked at this point, stenching Jacques on his left arm, with great force, forcing Jacques to take two steps back before he could stand still, as he had retreated from the dark next room to the lighted listening room.

Mackay did not pursue, still hiding in the dark room, Jacques took the opportunity to shake his numb left arm, holding the knife in both hands, the tip of the knife pointed at the large hole in the wall, the right hand was solid and ready to exert force at any time, and the left hand was weak, adjusting the angle of the blade according to the direction of the opponent's attack.

Time was spent waiting, and both rooms were silent.

The real time may have only passed two or three seconds, but Jacques felt as if a long time had passed, and Mackay still didn't move.

In the case of high mental stress, Jacques also reached the most sensitive level of source energy sensing in the vicinity.

An extremely subtle fluctuation of source energy suddenly appeared behind him, there must be something behind it!

Jacques didn't care about defending the front, stepped forward with his left foot, twisted his body, and slashed horizontally behind him.

The footsteps changed from left front to right back, and suddenly changed to right front and left back, and the knife light drew a silver arc in the small room, and a monitor who was originally lying on the table was immediately split in two by the knife light, but the blade was blocked by another object.

In a split second when the blade froze, a huge fist that could cover almost Jacques's entire face also hit Jacques in the nose.

- McKay is behind him!

But Jacques didn't have time to think about why Mackay suddenly appeared behind him, he was punched in the nose, and his body staggered backwards, again through the hole in the wall to the dark next door.

With a casual wipe of his hand, Jacques knew that his face should be covered in blood, his head was dizzy from the shock, and the sharp pain in his nose made him unable to open his eyes at all.

Even if you open your eyes, it's useless, there is darkness around you, only a bright light shining through the hole in the wall in front of you.

Fortunately, the slash just now should have hit Mackay, otherwise if he had taken advantage of Jacques's dizziness to continue the pursuit, Jacques might have been beaten to the point of being powerless at this time.

Jacques eased slightly, continued to hold the long knife in both hands, and simply closed his eyes to feel Mackay's movements. He thought back to the situation just now, it seemed that Mackay's teleportation was done through the source energy technique, but the source energy fluctuations caused were extremely subtle, and only when he moved behind him, there was a slight vibration.

If it was other shapers, it might not be able to detect it, probably only at the level of becoming a grandmaster or a half-step beastmaster, but Jacques could, because he was very familiar with the source energy fluctuations of this nature.

- That's the source energy technique of the chaos system!

McKay, like himself, is a transcendent who uses the Chaos Source Energy Technique!
