Chapter 246: However, Sigma has already seen through everything
Haru was still hesitating.
Not to mention that he hasn't seen the body of his boss yet, he doesn't know whether Sigma's statement is true or false, and besides, if the deadly transaction record left by the boss is exposed, he can eat the good fruit of the Stern Casino? Whether Boss Wicks is dead or not, when that record is revealed, countless outbursts of anger will pour directly over the entire casino......
He pondered his words, trying to delay a little longer: "Your Excellency, do you know that if you want to bring down some big man through that note, it is unlikely, how can those high-ranking adults personally give us orders?" They will only pretend to be others, and order their cronies to give orders layer by layer, so that even if there is an accident, they can take themselves out......"
Sigma sighed: "Whether it is the elders in the family or the tutors of the academy, they have taught me many times, they say that when intimidating the enemy, you must not bluff, you can't just rely on words, you must really make them feel pain, let them feel fear, only in this way, will they really destroy their psychological defenses...... Because people are quite cheap. β
Haru's first reaction was that he felt that this was very reasonable, the relatives and division commander of the mage in front of him seemed to be ruthless, and then, he immediately stood on end, and a cool breath rushed to the bottom of his heart, just as he wanted to open his mouth to scream, he saw Sigma stretch out his hand, and a little miserable green light appeared on his fingers, and the necromancer nodded lightly to him, and the green light on his fingertips flashed slightly, and the light came into his eyes.
Then, he felt this light expand rapidly at an extremely fast rate, filling his entire field of vision. Then, a series of terrible howls filled his eardrums, and all kinds of sounds made him very familiar. He remembered that these were the voices of the people he had killed before they died, their cries, their screams, their curses...... Then the human howl was twisted into the curse of immortality and the curse of the undead until the end. Unforgettable whispers and resentment shook his soul, Rao was working hard for many years, and his mind was already as solid as iron. Hearing the curse of these dead souls, my heart still trembles, and the ruthless people are often not afraid of the revenge of the living, but they are afraid of the retribution of the undead.
And then. He saw it. The faces of the dead, those who died in his hands or because of him, their faces are no longer cold and empty in memory, but have expressions that only belong to the dead, sneering, sad, arrogant, and vicious. Pleased...... They turned into ghosts and pounced on him with hideous faces. Wrapping around his limbs and body, choking his throat, biting his flesh and tearing open his stomach, he looked down and saw that it was not his organs in the abdominal cavity, but a baby who was chewing heavily, the child turned his head and smiled at him, the smile was innocent but cold, and there was a piece of intestines that had not been eaten into his mouth outside his small mouth......
All reason and bravery were completely destroyed, he couldn't move, he couldn't resist, he couldn't even scream in despair, he could only watch himself being torn apart, I don't know how long it took, suddenly it was clear in front of him, all the resentful spirits disappeared, the fresh air poured into his lungs, he gasped for breath, and when he looked up, the mage was still maintaining his original movements, his fingers pointed at him, and a green light appeared on his fingertips, and he understood, This mage who came to the door was not just a professional who fought very well, but a terrible star.
Sigma smiled at him and stepped forward, her glowing green finger reaching out and pointing at Haru's body.
ββ Just a slight faint point, the miserable cold illusion almost destroyed his sanity, if this finger was heavily tapped on the body, what kind of cruel punishment should it be?
At least Haru couldn't imagine that it was faster and more effective than any torture he had ever seen, and compared to this finger, the shocking variety of torture instruments under the Stern's Casino was like a few ridiculous toys.
So he shouted as fast as he could in his life: "I understand! I understand! β
"That's right." Sigma smiled, changed his fingers into his hands, and wanted to pull Haru up, who was sitting on the ground, how dare Haru touch him? With his hands strained, he stood up, as if he was afraid of Sigma's change, and said quickly: "I don't think Boss Wicks will put such an important thing in the office, I know where his home is, where the villa outside the city is, there are two secret private strongholds, and the residence of three mistresses......"
Sigma frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Go to his office." β
Haru didn't hesitate, and after agreeing, he pulled his legs and left, Sigma quickly followed, and said lightly: "Say a few words first, so that you can do things with your heart." First, even if I get that record book, I don't plan to publicize the contents of it, and second, if you want to change the backer of the hard point, after searching the office, you go to the White Rose Hotel with me, and I will introduce you to Victor. β
Haru's eyes lit up, and at this point, he believed Sigma's words about six points - not so much that he felt overjoyed and felt that he had found a great backer, but at least it made him feel a little better in his heart.
After all, even if Sigma has no background and is just a more capable mage, he has to cooperate obediently, after all, it is more fatal than revenge afterwards......
The third floor is the management activity floor of the Stern Casino, after a long corridor, Wicks's office is the largest and most magnificent one, there are two people standing guard in front of the door, seeing Haru walking with Sigma, he was stunned for a moment, stepped forward and stopped: "Mr. Haru, Captain Weeks is not here, and, this is ......"
Haru smiled slightly, two steel thorns quietly slipped out of the sleeve of his right hand, and the fingers holding the steel thorns suddenly flicked, and in the sharp whistling sound, the two steel thorns shot through the throats of the two doormen one after the other, and the two people covered their bloody necks, looking incredulous, but the steel thorns were coated with fierce poison, and their lives passed quickly, and their eyes quickly lost their luster and fell to the ground.
"They're the descendants and loyal dogs of Boss Wicks." He explained in a low voice.
Sigma nodded quietly, as if thinking of something, and asked casually, "When I met Wicks." He died with his groom, and his groom was also his subordinate? β
"That's Orva." Haru replied, "Fellow Wicks Boss." Cunning and clever, he is the speaker and the first right-hand man of Boss Wicks, and the first choice for the boss to do something important is for Orva to do. β
"I see." Sigma noddedβmaster and accessory?
The door was locked, and Haru picked up a one-handed hammer from the corpse and tried to break down the door violently. Unexpectedly, Sigma stretched out his hand and pushed it gently, and there was a soft sound of the lock. The door opened.
"Therefore, the locks of the mansions of the powerful or the safes of valuables are produced by the affiliated enterprises of the Mage Federation, and are specially used to guard against undisciplined mages. After all, ordinary metal locks are for those mages who have a little interest in the principles of lock construction. It's just too basic. Sigma Yun pretended lightly.
Haru was speechless, he couldn't help but think of the scene when the Stern Casino was renovated, he had a good memory, and he was the person in charge of supervising this matter, so he naturally knew what kind of specifications the personal offices of the casino management were purchased according to what specifications, just like the door lock in Boss Wicks's office, which was said to be a dwarven product smuggled from the black market in Warhammer Province, with eight cores and fourteen spins. The inside of the lock is made of different materials, which are different in soft and hard. Only original keys made of the right materials and parts can be opened, not even replicas of perfectly copied keys β and it turns out that even the most ingenious thieves in the docklands can't break the lock in an hour...... And Sigma actually pushed it away with a gentle push.
β¦β¦ Are you sure you just have a "little hobby" in the principles of lock construction? I must have studied it specifically! I've practiced it! How many top-level locks have been prying to have such superb skills! Where did you pry, you most undisciplined mage!
Haru's inner activity was very violent, Sigma didn't know what he was thinking, he stepped into Wicks's office, stretched out his hand and popped out a few flames, lit candles and oil lamps, the fire dispelled the darkness, Sigma looked around, a very large and magnificent place, a large solid wood table, a few rows of bookshelves to hold the force, and a wine cabinet and a small kitchen, a guy who knows how to enjoy.
"The break room is there, and after the office is renovated, there are a few mezzanine obscura in the office, but Boss Wesker keeps important items, and usually doesn't use those mezzanine because of their location, I know." After Haru reminded him, he stood in place with his hands down, and he didn't dare to be enthusiastic about helping, so as to arouse the suspicion of the other party.
Sigma walked straight to the large desk, there was a notebook in the most conspicuous place, Sigma's heart moved, reached out to take it, opened it, of course, important transaction records will not be written on it, this notebook is empty, only the title page is written a sentence: "Success is worth celebrating, failure should be a warning." β
The necromancer pondered for a moment, and suddenly a smile appeared, he put down his notebook, walked to the center of the office, and stretched out his hand, a roaring electric light shone brightly, and the violent lightning pierced the air, and the dazzling lightning made Haru retreat to the wall, not knowing what Sigma was going to do, but the necromancer's expression was solemn, and he manipulated the lightning, and slowly circled around, as if sensing something--Then, a spark of electricity suddenly burst out of a bookcase, and then the electric light in Sigma's hand flashed, and was pulled by an invisible force, which quickly flowed into the bookcase.
- This is the principle of the pre-discharge lightning rod used by Sigma at Nina Vidora Lodge.
Here - Sigma smiled and walked quickly to the bookshelf, but the figure flickered outside the window, and a man suddenly crashed in, and a dozen throwing knives whistled in the wind, blocking all the paths of Sigma's advance and dodging left and right, and the necromancer seemed to be blocked by a blade, so he had to retreat and dodge, and the uninvited guest kept throwing throwing knives, forcing Sigma to retreat until he retreated to the wall, and the man's hand was already pressed on the sliding door of the bookcase.
Seeing that the clue that he had finally discovered was about to be plucked again, Sigma not only did not start to fight back, but calmly unfurled an arcane shield to block himself and Haru.
As soon as the comer's hand opened the bookcase, the dazzling Lei Hua burst into flames.
Under the traction of the magnetic force, dozens of steel nails and iron pieces suddenly shot out of the bookcase, piercing the body of the raider, and then, the dazzling bright light almost blinded his eyes, but he had no chance to scream, because the powerful electric current sent a violent bombardment to him, almost in a moment, he was smashed into a charcoal.
Haru was stunned, then chilled, and he looked at Sigma with a look of disbelief - this guy had expected this to happen, so he calmly watched people die? How did he know?
"Hmph, it's really all cautious...... That defeat taught him not only lightning rods and Faraday cages, but also sinister traps. Sigma smiled proudly, "It's a pity that Uncle Ben has already seen through it." β
"But there is no living ......" Sigma kicked the charred corpse aside, the corpse was still wearing soft armor with high protection, but it didn't seem to be of the slightest use, Tesla's triple trap had destroyed all of his qiΔ, his whole body was charred, and he was unrecognizable, even the necromancer who was very good at criminal investigation couldn't get any useful information, this powerful thunderbolt trap seemed to carry Tesla's full of resentment......
Opened the door of the bookcase, sure enough, there were no traps, in a pile of famous books, the notebook was very conspicuous, take it out, open it and see, sure enough, it was all kinds of transaction documents recorded by Wesker in private.
Sigma chuckled softly.
He seemed to have a new impression of Tesla, from coming with a murderous heart, to the battle under Nina Vidora's estate, to the jubilation of victory, to what he experienced while searching for the notebook...... Now it seems that Tesla really survived the roar of Hades, and he is still alive, intending to carry out some mysterious plans, and slightly revealing the intention of asking him to help cooperate - however, this demon scholar with a high IQ and a very low EQ does not seem to understand, and the empire has also been very murderous against him, coupled with this undercurrent in the city that is openly and secretly against him, Tesla's recent actions are tantamount to dancing on the tip of a knife, and Sigma himself also has an account to settle with him, which happened in the morning light really thunderstorm, and the innocent people who died in it, Tesla must have an explanation.
With the notepad in hand, Sigma beckoned Haru, ready to fulfill his promise and take him to Victor.
But when he arrived at the White Rose Crown Hotel, Sigmar didn't see Benny and Victor yet, but saw Fiona who seemed to be waiting here, and the captain of the personal guard who was in charge of taking the body to the Marquis's Mansion to ask the Marquis of Cambra to identify him received a positive answer, and immediately returned to inform Lyudmila, and then the Iron Princess sent someone to inform Sigma - but when the scout arrived at Alain's house, he found that Sigma still hadn't returned, so Fiona volunteered to go to the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, and learned about the accident from Benny. Just wait here, wait for Sigma to come back.
After listening to Fiona's briefing, Sigma's expression instantly became playful.
Because whether it was the Marquis of Cambra, who forced the sick body to get up for an autopsy, or the attendants in the Marquis's Mansion who claimed to have seen the Demon Dao Scholars, the answers they gave were the same.
They said that the body was Tesla himself. (To be continued......)
