456 Go and return
Faced with the disadvantage of being outnumbered, Hoden has enough patience to slowly investigate, and the clues can reveal far more truth than imagined, so Hoden must remain cautious and low-key to ensure that his whereabouts will not be detected by anyone and exposed to danger.
One by one, the twelve nobles got into their carriages, said goodbye to each other, and then scattered to different corners of the city, and finally the night returned to peace, and the inky black night was quietly shrouded in silence, covering all secrets as if nothing had happened.
Holden still didn't leave, didn't act rashly, waited patiently in place-
Because when the twelve nobles left the basement just now, he could notice their movements carefully observing the passage and garden, although the sensor net could not capture the specific movements and eyes and other details, but it still sounded the alarm for him.
It's as if you have inadvertently broken into the psionic magic circle, and you may also inadvertently leave traces and expose your figure, or you may expose your bottom line with a bald head, then the departure of the nobles may be a trap, and they may go and return at any time, just to wait for themselves to be exposed and throw themselves into the net.
So, he needs to be patient and he needs to be cautious.
That's what Nightingale was like when I was tracking Nightingale, and tonight was no exception.
It's silent.
Hodden could even hear his own breathing, as if his caution was unnecessary, but a worrisome joke.
But Hordon didn't feel bored at all, on the contrary, he entered the state of cultivation, completely spread out the induction network, and further expanded the scope of control, firmly incorporating all the movements of the surrounding three blocks into his monitoring range, and it was impossible for any abnormal wind and grass to escape his attention.
Maintaining a state of vigilance is also a means of cultivation to improve strength and consolidate ability, which is very important for Holden.
Five minutes.
There was a dead silence.
Perhaps, it's really just that Hordon himself is overly suspicious, overly cautious and too nervous, but...... Before Hodden could make a move, there was movement in the streets again.
The sound of wheels hitting the ground came from far and near, and then the carriage reappeared.
At least three.
And it was the familiar three noble carriages, they returned to the vicinity of the Umani Church, and at the same time, the psionic search network spread quickly, faintly with a coercive violence, swept strongly, and the cold night instantly tightened, and they could smell a murderous aura.
Hoden immediately fell into a steady breathing state. Pretending to be a homeless drunk is more convincing and easier to fool than hiding your body with bated breath completely.
Although the thoughts in Horden's mind were surging and boiling, he couldn't determine whether he had exposed his target, or whether he had betrayed himself bald, or the routine inspection routines of the nobles, but he did not mess with himself, but naturally entered the "drunkard state", muttering to himself into a state of half-dreaming and half-waking, and his lifelike acting skills were enough to make the real fake.
Really!
The psionic search net locked onto his figure with a faint attack force, but paused for a moment, not being able to detect any anomalies in Hoden's movements and state, so he shifted away without suspicion.
Just as Hodden was about to let his guard down, the psionic search network killed another rifle and scanned it for the second time, but Hoden's state still did not fluctuate, as if he was "a drunk who didn't realize that he was the target of the search", just like an ordinary homeless man in the neighborhood.
"Beautiful, real, delicate!"
"An adorable show!"
"Hodden Herlow successfully shows the true appearance of a homeless drunk man with his soul-like acting skills, the image of a loser who is immersed in the glory of the past and can't extricate himself, and he can feel the power from the soul in every smile and every move, especially the hazy sight and whispering words, which really shows a selfless performance. ”
"He did it! He did it again! It was an Oscar-caliber performance, and he managed to fool everybody so that no one could see the truth!"
This time, Hodden managed to fool the three psionics with his superb acting skills, and because they didn't have to wait too long, they withdrew the psionic search net and left again, and the sound of the wagon shaking quickly disappeared into the thick night.
It should have really left.
Five minutes.
Ten minutes.
Thirty minutes.
Hodden remained "asleep" for at least thirty minutes, making sure that the nobles did not go back again, and that his whereabouts had successfully deceived each other, and then finally relaxed a little.
Next, it's time for Hoden-
Instead of being reckless, Horden expanded the sensor network to take in all the movements in the surrounding five blocks, and once again confirmed that he had not missed anything.
Judging from the actions of the three nobles who went and returned, the most likely thing is that Hoden's previous action of touching the psionic circle did leave traces, and they couldn't be sure if it was the appearance of the opposition within the church, so they went and went back to check, but the inspection action was not too fine, and there was no cross-search - the overall appearance was still a little rough, and Hoden, who was hiding under his nose, did not stand the real test.
These small details can tell a lot, and it seems that the contradictions between the support and opposition factions within the church should have surfaced, so they are wary of each other and spy on each other.
Perhaps, this can be the entry point for Holden to make the most of this contradiction and find the truth.
As for this time?
After confirming that his condition was safe, Hodden jumped out of hiding place and quickly reconnected towards the Umani Church.
This time, without those temptations and wanderings, Hordon went all the way back to the basement -
He believes that it is very necessary for him to return to the basement to check, whether he can find clues or not, he needs to return to the "crime scene" to explore.
However, he needs to be more careful.
Footsteps came to the corner of the corridor where he had just been hit, and Hodden did not step forward immediately, but laid out his psionic tentacles, and began to explore slowly, making sure that he had not been able to capture any traces of the magic circle, and then took a step.
One forward, one turning.
Haddon didn't get into any trouble, and just got through the level, it seems that the psionic circle was indeed closed, but Haddon had another idea:
If the psionic circle was closed, then how was the trace of the spirit beast hidden?
Or is it that the bald head is lying, and the spirit beast is not at peace, but has disappeared? This explanation seems to be closer to reality.
Hodden didn't let his thoughts go any further, he remained vigilant, and soon came to the basement in the center.
