Xia Zor and the others left Neil's quarters, walked slowly down the path of the castle, and finally stopped in a quieter place.

"Elsa, how's it going?" Anos asked, casually sitting on a wooden chair on the side of the castle road, towards Elsa.

"How's he mentally going? Is he lying?"

It seems that Anos is also quite suspicious of Viscount Sachs.

"His mental state seemed a little uneasy, as for lying...... He did lie, and I actually think what he said was half-true. ”

"Also, for some reason, I can't tell where he lied. Elsa sighed slightly, as if frustrated that she had not been able to confirm Sachs's condition.

"Maybe it's because he's wearing something that can protect his mind this time, or it's just that I'm thinking too much. ”

"It's possible, but I can't confirm it. Anos shook his head slightly.

Anos looked at Nazzo and Edith beside him.

"Now, then, Shazo, can you explain to me what is going on with you and Edith?" asked Arnos.

"Ahh Xia Zuo reacted, nodded hurriedly, and then explained to Anos one by one, and Elsa on the side was also listening.

After listening to Xia Zuo's words, Anos held his chin and thought for a moment.

"That said, now that Edith is willing to be on our side, you think Edith is credible, and the killer of the guards is someone else: most likely another Soul Descendant we don't know about. Arnos said, "This Soulborn is secretly helping Sax?"

"Is it possible, in fact, Sax is also a soul descendant?" Xia Zuo asked on a whim.

After all, it's probably safest for Saxes to do this kind of thing, right? Otherwise, Saxophone has to have a soul descendant who is more loyal to him to help.

"No way. Fred retorted to Xia Zuo, "There has never been a rumor that Viscount Saxe is a Soul Spawn, I had close contact with him when I first took over the commission, he can't be a Soul Spawn." ”

"Of course, if he really wants to become a Soul Spawn, it's still possible. Fred chuckled with his right thumb against his chin.

"For example, to become an 'acquired soul'. ”

Xia Zuo was stunned.

He knew about the acquired soul descendant.

Before, when he made up for the knowledge of the Soul Descendant, he had made up for this.

Acquired Soul Descendant, which refers to the Soul Descendant born through acquired means, is different from the normal Soul Descendant, that is, the Innate Soul Descendant.

Acquired soul descendants are born by implanting or absorbing soul essence the acquired soul descendant, and after they obtain this power, their body will often find it difficult to withstand the power of soul matter, which can easily lead to body collapse or death.

At the same time, because soul quality is a kind of power that can affect the spirit, some acquired soul descendants are often more like crazy people, irritable, moody, and easy to lose control.

There are some people within the Soul Descent Council who think that it is also a good power to make good use of the acquired Soul Spawn, and similarly, there are some people among the Soul Seed: there are some people among the Demon Soul Breed who think so, so there are often some victims who are tempted by the Demon Seed Soul to fall.

In addition, due to the optimism of the Soul Descent Council leaders about the power of the Acquired Soul Spawn, the existence of the Acquired Soul Spawn is tacitly approved.

There are often people who are supported by the council and volunteer to become Acquired Soul Descendants to assist Soul Descendants.

As for the difference between the innate soul descendant and the acquired soul descendant.

The innate soul descendants innate contain the soul quality, they are in an environment full of soul essence before birth (in the mother's body), although the fertility rate of the soul descendant is low because of such an environment, but if the child is born, it is often able to adapt to the soul quality, not as unstable as the acquired soul descendant, and will not easily get out of control.

"If Sax wants to become a Soul Descendant, he does have this path to follow, and with his connection to our Soul Descendant, as well as his financial resources, it is indeed possible for him to get a soul potion or something to make himself an acquired Soul Descendant. Fred said.

"But at least, he's certainly not a Soulborn now. ”

"There is no trace of the acquired soul implant on his body. ”

"But according to the current situation, if the murderer is indeed not Edith, there must be other soul descendants in this castle besides us. Xia Zuo emphasized.

Edith nodded.

"Is it possible that the people around Saxophone are acquired soul descendants?" Xia Zuo suddenly had an idea.

"Take the butler named 'Rhine,' for example. ”

Xia Zuo couldn't help but think of the butler Rhine who seemed to be inseparable from the saxophone, Rhine was handsome and polite, polite, and polite, and there was a certain confidence implied in his gestures, this butler was not too far away from the Saxophone Viscount even when Xia Zuo was talking to the saxophone.

If Rhine is actually the soul descendant (acquired soul descendant) that exists behind Viscount Saxophone, this is entirely possible.

As long as Rhine is loyal enough to Viscount Saxophone and can successfully adapt to the soul nature and become an acquired soul descendant, then there is no problem at all.

"Possibly. Anos replied to Xia Zuo, and then looked at Elsa on the side, "But we can't confirm it." ”

"On the surface, he shouldn't be an acquired soul descendant. Elsa understood what Anos meant by looking at her, and explained, "Even if the aura of the acquired soul descendant is less obvious, it is always difficult to completely hide the aura, I believe Jasmine you can feel it too." "Elsa and Jasmine are the two most mentally powerful in the team.

"There is indeed no breath of a soul descendant on his body. Jasmine bowed slightly.

"But it doesn't rule out the possibility that he has the ability to hide his aura or treasures. Jasmine said more.

"Yes, after all, our spiritual power is not strong enough, if he really has this ability or treasure, it will be difficult for us to judge unless we get close to him. Elsa nodded slightly.

"Ah......hh So it's still not sure for a long time?" Xia Zuo couldn't help but be a little crazy, "So what are we going to do now?"

"Infiltrate, steal information. Ian suddenly appeared from behind Xia Zuo and said quietly.

Xia Zuo was almost frightened by the sudden appearance of Ian again.

Of course, in addition to being scared because of Ian's sudden appearance, half of it was because Ian's suggestion made Xia Zuo directly startled.

Please, Ian, we're here to complete the commission, not to play sneak in, it's true that we're here to assassin sneak around, your painting style is not right, brother.

But...... Seems like it can really come?

Xia Zuo complained and complained, and then he still felt that this method seemed to be good, with Ian's level of stealth ability, maybe he could really hear important news without knowing it.

Even if Saxophone has a soul descendant on his side, it won't work.

Because even Xia Zuo, a serious innate soul descendant, could hardly detect Ian's existence.

Not to mention the acquired soul descendants that may exist on the Saxophone's side.

However, if Sachs is still tight-lipped in private and refuses to reveal any information, then I'm afraid Ian won't get any important information even if he sneaks in.

And it's bad if it's discovered.

We couldn't follow Ian when he sneaked in, and we wouldn't necessarily be able to respond in time if something happened to him.

Forget it, let's think of something else.

Maybe...... I can go to what Neil called the plains of Dessa.

I don't know where the mare is buried in the plains of the Dessa, but with Edith there, perhaps she has the ability to identify and detect dead objects?

Xia Zuo decided to ask Edith to take a look.

"Ah...... Edith. Xia Zuo opened his mouth and called out to Edith.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Edith couldn't help but smile playfully.

"Neil said that Leah was buried in the plains of Desa, where can you find Leah's body?"

"I do have the ability to sense the life of the dead. Edith blinked her purple eyes slightly, looking very cute.

"But the Desa Plains is just too big. ”

"With my senses, I can't find the mare all at once. ”

"It can take days to find it. ”

"And, more crucially, I don't know what that mare looks like. ”

"It's too much trouble to find all the dead mares in the Plains of Dessa, and find Leah among them and turn them into undead spirits to get the truth. ”

"Of course, if I could know what Leah looks like, and also know Leah's breath, then I might be able to find Leah's body sooner. Edith explained.

This...... It really feels like a hassle......

Xia Zuo thought to himself.

Wait...... Wait, Leah's breath...... Maybe my extraordinary ability, soul tracking, could come in handy.

Although the main ability of soul tracking is to track soul matter, and it has a stronger ability to sense soul quality, this does not mean that soul tracking can only be used to track soul matter.

Soul tracking can also be used to track a specific thing, of course, provided that you remember the exact breath of the thing, so that you don't make a mistake in tracking.

As for why Xia Zuo didn't track the murderer through soul tracking before, it was because Xia Zuo hadn't been able to get soul tracking long enough, and his extraordinary ability was not strong enough, and only the little soul energy left in Neil's body was used as a medium, and Xia Zuo couldn't successfully track the murderer.

Of course, if there was a sufficient amount of soul matter as a medium at that time, Xia Zuo would have been able to successfully track down the murderer.

"I've got a solution. Xia Zuo said to Edith, which made Edith stunned.

"I think I can use my soul tracking to match your senses, so maybe we can find Leah's body soon. Xia Zuo paused, "However, I must first go to the stable where Lea lived before to remember the smell of Leah's mare." ”

"I didn't expect my brother to have such a way. Edith smiled softly, "Then let's give it a try." ”

"In that case, let's go over to the stables first. "As the captain, Anos seems to approve of Xia Zuo's plan.

"Then let's go check it out. Elsa nodded.

Others agreed.

So the crowd soon came to the castle stables.

Xia Zuo stood by the stable, and then asked Edith to sense which part of the stable had recently breathed of dead life.

If there is one place, then this place is where Leah once lived.

"Understood. Edith smiled, and then her mental power swept casually, and her eyes rested on a relatively large manger, which appeared relatively clean, and seemed to have a separate space to isolate from the other horses.

"Well, that location, where the mare once lived, and there is still a faint smell of death there. Edith could see at a glance where Leah had lived.

Xia Zuo was suddenly stunned.

The location...... Isn't that the last time I picked up that weird feather?

I almost forgot about it.

At the time, everyone said that this feather was not a griffon's feather, but it was indeed a griffin that appeared behind it, which is really a strange thing, why is that?

And this strange feather actually fell where Leah once lived...... What is the relationship between the owner of this strange feather and Leah, and why is it here?

It feels like there are more mysteries.

According to Jasmine's previous statement, the owner of this feather should be an impure half-ghost beast...... In other words, this mare is suspected not only of being related to the griffin, but also of a half-ghost...... Oh my god, what the is this mare doing?!

Ahh......hhh I don't want to think about it, the more I think about it, the more headache I get, it's better to find Leah's body first, and then I can get the truth.

So Xia Zuo stopped thinking and began to seriously remember the remnants of Leah's breath.

It is very simple to memorize the breath of ordinary creatures, and Xia Zuo immediately remembered the breath of Leah.

Xia Zuo looked up at Edith.

"Memorized. ”

"Alright, let's get ready to set off for the plains of Dessa. ”

Xia Zuo couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and smiled lightly.
