Chapter Twenty-Five: The Second Statue
"What are you doing here?"
After leaving the Aoba Forest, Joshu looked at Sufena in bewilderment.
If anything, you can tell yourself after fighting the wise men.
Why bother to follow yourself for such a long distance?
Sufena's face showed a little embarrassment, apparently she also thought that she had almost messed up the matter of Joshua.
She was also unintentional, and Lexya temporarily explained some important things to her, and Sufina had to hurry for days.
By the time Sufena found Yoxiu, he had already walked into the Aoba Forest, and she had to follow in.
The atmosphere of the environment inside made her quite enjoyable and had a feeling of coming home.
It's like a forest where elves live.
The flowers and trees here all reveal a friendly atmosphere to her, and she can feel that this forest welcomes her.
The intimate feeling made her intoxicated for a long time, and by the time she reacted, Joshu had already lost her figure.
Fortunately, the elves are the darlings of trees, and thanks to their affinity for nature, Sufena was able to find Joshua's footprints without any problems.
Then, exactly what happened just now.
It's just that she didn't know that her unintentionality happened to save Joshua from the crisis.
If, as Ashiye said, he asked Xiu to accomplish what he wanted to accomplish the most, then this advancement would really be a long time.
Because what he wants to do most now is to advance the curtain puller.
And the advanced curtain puller must successfully deceive Ashiye, but in order to successfully deceive him, he must be advanced.
This in itself is a paradox, unless Joshua goes to find another legend or god, or a small organization.
The latter two require a certain amount of risk and will take a long time.
However, he wouldn't tell Sufena frankly that this was more or less a reward for being followed by her.
Sufena said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Joxiu, I didn't mess up your affairs, did I?" ”
Seeing Sufena's sincere and guilty face, Joxiu was embarrassed to tease him.
"No, after all, you can tell me what you mean, and the caravan."
Now that Josh's mission and Sufina's goal have been agreed, it's better to get into the topic as soon as possible.
"Actually, this caravan might be of help to us."
"The Order sent someone to keep an eye on it, and during our investigation, we discovered that you had traveled with the caravan for some time."
Joxiu nodded and admitted that he had not been very secretive in the first place, and even if he had a disguise, he could not hide it from the eyes of those who really cared.
Not to mention the Fools, an organization that specializes in fraudulent activities, tracking and investigating are their specialty.
It depends, but I want to see if I can get some information from myself.
However, in addition to meeting Luth, a mysterious and strange girl, there is not much else to know about the caravan, and there is also the unique Miss Du.
"Also, the teacher said that you'd better take the time to learn a puppetry."
Puppetry?
Indeed, the fact that the Fool is called a puppet master is also related to the fact that each of them has mastered the art of puppetry.
In many cases, for fraudsters, the role of puppeteering is indeed very large and necessary.
In his previous life, Lexya hadn't mentioned this matter to him, so it seemed that the conditions didn't allow it.
In terms of puppetry, all he knows so far is ** puppets, plant puppets, Karakuri puppets and so on.
The first one was ruled out by him, and the others had their own strengths, but none of them were particularly liked by him.
Seeing Yoxiu's hesitant look, Su Fena persuaded: "The types of puppet techniques are actually more complicated than you imagined, there is always one you like." ”
"The teacher said, I suggest you go to Red Sand City to find Master Mobik, he is the senior of our East Coast Branch who has the most knowledge of puppetry."
"Basically, some newcomers who are really difficult to choose, or can't find satisfactory ones in the puppet tricks of the public, will go to meet."
Mobik? Joshua had heard of it, but he was actually a fool?
He didn't think about it anymore and continued: "You came to me, there should be more than these two things, right? ”
If it's just two things, there's no need to come to yourself.
Su Fena hesitated, shook her head and said, "No, let's do the things in front of us first." ”
"I'm really bothering you this time."
"It's just mutual benefit."
After discussing the specific details, Joxiu and Sufena went their separate ways.
Now the caravan from the east has left Red Sand City, and now they are in the city near Red Sand City, Green Quiet City.
Therefore, Yoshu temporarily gave up his plan to learn puppetry, and completed the advanced things first.
The Fool Organization Sufena was more familiar than herself, and the resources there were easily used by her, so Joxiu didn't bother to repeat it.
He took out the card codenamed Night Wind, last time Ulhe City had planned to buy information on the movements of the War Believers, and he had taken on many tasks.
In terms of points, there are also some more, but they were not used later, and now they are going to the branch of the Assassin League here to exchange for the information of that caravan.
"If you have time, it's not bad to swipe this card from two stars to three stars."
After arriving at Samsung, there are more resources that can be used.
The intelligence price of the Eastern Caravan is not expensive, and it can even be said that it does not require many points.
This made Joxiu have a bad premonition, and sure enough, when he opened the message written on the parchment scroll, he smiled helplessly.
"Judging from the data, this caravan is an honest businessman."
"But that's too much, isn't it?"
Generally speaking, traveling merchants are involved in some kind of underground trade, and after careful investigation, these signs can be detected more or less.
Are they really pure and rare businessmen?
That's impossible.
Otherwise, Sufina and the others would not have set their sights on this caravan.
"Huh? It's ......"
After thinking about it carefully, Yu Xiu really analyzed some unusual places, and if ordinary people were ordinary people, they might accidentally skip it.
"No wonder Sufena noticed it, it seems that there is something really wrong with this caravan."
After reading it, Joshua destroyed the parchment.
As mentioned above, there is a customer that the caravan is now approaching, and it is today.
Looking at the sky, the sun was almost setting, and he went into the library for an hour to brush up on his knowledge, and then came to a hotel next to the caravan to lurk.
When I saw that Miss Du with the old butler and a team of guards set off to talk to the buyer.
Joxiu didn't follow immediately, but waited an hour before setting off, the location was already known from the information exchanged, and there was no need to risk following him.
Their meeting ended a full three hours later, and it was already dark at night.
After the caravan left, three black-robed men also came out of the shop, and met the city guards on the way, and were asked to take off their hats on their robes.
There was no obvious resistance, they did so, and took out some proof papers, and after several cross-examinations and checks, the city guards also let them go.
Joshua didn't have a very good line of sight, and he could only see that they were three men.
After leaving the sight of the city guards, the three of them turned a corner into the alley, and made a contract to cultivate their minds.
He caught up with them and sneaked in front of the three of them, and while he was resting at the hotel, he had memorized the map of the place.
Make the most of every ounce of time, that's his credo.
"Who is it?"
The three of them suddenly became alert, but it was too late.
The shadow attack was launched, and Joshu took the shadow step into a ghost seeking his life, and with a flick of the dagger, the man walking behind fell to the ground in an instant.
With a bonus of 50 points of shadow attack, the damage caused by surprise is considerable.
The two of them reacted immediately, and were about to pull out their weapons, but one of them felt three white lights flash in front of his eyes, and then his eyes went black.
Just now, three blades of swords that were connected by the same silver thread wrapped around his neck.
Joxiu pulled harder again, and the blade of the sword turned into a wheel of grinding meat, and the corpse was divided into two.
"You!"
The rest of the man, though angry, did not panic.
With a scimitar in both hands, he rushed towards Joshua.
Double Phantom Activation!
The shadows of the two Joxiu attacked from both directions, and looking at each other's movements, it was obvious that they were a little rusty with their two-handed scimitars.
Soon, Joxiu came into attack range.
In less than a second, he could give him a fatal blow with a dagger.
But when the accident happened, the man suddenly put down the scimitar, and his two hands turned into hideous claws, grabbing at the two Joxiu at the same time.
Once hit, Joxiu will definitely be injured a lot, and it is likely that he will be confessed here.
Joxiu smiled strangely, he had expected this situation a long time ago.
Skill Empty Activation!
He kicked his legs and jumped onto the wall of the alley, exerting a bit of the power of flying eaves and walking on the wall with his empty steps.
The pace was a little twisted, but it just dodged the man's blow.
The other phantoms are pierced by claws.
An even more secluded, flaming demonic black hand reached out from the back of Joshur's side and grabbed at the man, piercing his body.
However, the man did not die immediately, but turned around and stared at Joshua with hatred, and he took out his scimitar and slashed him to death.
Joshua looked at the three corpses after death, and after losing their vitality, they all turned from human bodies to hideous devils.
"Huh?"
From their bodies, Joxiu found out about a hundred gold coins, and there seemed to be something left in the last person.
Joxiu glanced at him, "This is ......"
The one in front of me is obviously similar to the one you got in the Wanderer's Tomb.
A lifelike devil, delicately carved, but unlike the original crouching one, this one roared with its mouth open, revealing its fangs inside.
Mysterious statue (2): The devil's roaring statue is made of unknown material, and the carving process is very **, and the origin is mysterious.
Effect: Charisma +1
The next moment he touched the statue, Joxiu suddenly felt a terrifying sense of crisis, which made his hairs stand on end, and an astonishing chill hit every inch of his nerves.
Such a sense of crisis can only be matched by the incident of the god of war.
No, it should be said that this time the danger is far greater than the last time.
Because he felt a sense of powerlessness!
Terror, coming!
