Chapter 21: Okay, I've got it
Mo Chen didn't know how much of an impact his casual answer had on the girl from a famous magic family behind him.
However, what he said was also true, Hitomi was indeed just eighteen years old when she died, even though that was five hundred years ago.
But you can't say that after you die, you still have a birthday every year, and your age will still increase by one year, right? That's a joke, the day of the festival and the birthday are two completely different things.
- So what Mo Chen said is absolutely the truth and does not accept refutation.
And he doesn't have time to take care of Erica's problem now, and the immediate priority is obviously the problem of Hitomi running away! This matter is definitely the highest priority, in this case, how can he take care of such a thing as a witch's self-esteem.
Erica was devastated by the big blow, and she also suddenly had some thoughts of giving up on herself, and she couldn't care about other things for a while.
Otherwise, with her personality and style, she would definitely be able to observe what means Mo Chen was using to search for targets on a large scale at the moment, and what was the difference between the mysterious spell she was using.
She's an arrogant and self-confident person, but she's also more sensitive to the details around her than most people think, and she also has a thoughtful side.
However, Erica was obviously a little depressed and absent-minded now, she didn't pay attention to what Mo Chen was doing, she just lowered her head and thought for a long time.
Then she bit her lower lip lightly and said in a low tone: "By the way, I came here to inform you that we are going to go back, and we will leave at eight o'clock tonight......"
Because the investigation has not progressed, there is no clue to even the possibility, and it is pointless to continue to consume, and there is a troublesome king who is causing trouble everywhere in this territory that does not belong to them......
They can only end the investigation of this matter early, and go home directly, at least to bring a bomb-like man back to Italy first.
Otherwise, Steward Andre's original plan was to pull a relationship with the mysterious side here and cultivate the basis of friendship, but I am afraid that he will achieve unimaginable huge results-
It's just that it's definitely counterproductive, that's an indisputable fact.
Whoever goes to a newly met friend's house, ready to promote a relationship and cultivate a relationship, as long as the brain is not broken, should not bring a pit daddy bear child who can only smash and rob over, right?
What's more, a certain Bomberman is no longer at the level of a bear child, but a two-ha, who has excess energy.
Even in someone else's home, he is smiling on his face, but he is brewing a renovation plan of 200,000 yuan in his heart.
If you continue to stay, let alone promote relationships and cultivate friendships, it will already be a pretty good ending if you don't turn against each other on the spot and fight to the death.
Therefore, it is necessary to drag it home before the renovation plan brewing in Erha's heart is increased from 200,000 to 400,000.
"Really? Then ...... Have a nice trip? I'm not going to send you off. Mo Chen still replied casually, not paying too much attention to this matter.
He frowned as well, the information the wind had brought with him for no useful clues. In the entire huge city, as well as the wider area nearby, he didn't notice any trace of Hitomi.
The hearty "King of Swords", as well as the traces of other Italian magicians, were directly discovered by him, and they did not hide their presence much at this time.
There are also those extraordinary people in the local area, witches, priests, onmyoji, etc., although they seem to be a little more hidden and natural, but their aura is also difficult to completely hide under his deliberate search.
However, Mo Chen found out that the number of real shrine maidens in the city of Tokyo was ...... It doesn't seem like there are many in the first place, and none of them are Hitomi.
He couldn't sense the other's aura at all, in the entire city or even beyond.
Salbatreqing still didn't give up his previous idea, and Andreqing couldn't persuade him...... He means let me tell you that as soon as there is a clue from the disobedient God, he will inform you, and I will be responsible for this matter. ”
The blonde girl said as she watched the last bit of sunset sink from the end of the horizon as she watched the last bit of sunset sink from the end of the horizon.
"But this kind of thing is still too messy, Andre Qing asked me to convey his apologies to you, and also asked me to bring a message-"
"He told you that as long as you don't pay attention to it when the time comes, he will do his best to stop this nerve...... This kind of willful and reckless behavior. ”
At the end, there seemed to be a slight silence, and there was an unnatural and imperceptible pause in the blonde girl's speech.
Then she reluctantly changed her words, but it was clear that she was full of resentment.
“……”
“……”
“…… Oh, thank you so much. ”
Mo Chen still didn't care much, just nodded very casually, and didn't know if he really listened.
He had now stopped his regular search ability and began to think about how to change his way of thinking in order to be able to capture Hitomi's whereabouts more effectively.
The realm of wind has always been his most basic ability, not only is it easy to manipulate, but its own nature is a combination of rigidity and softness, and can change at will...... And it's the most natural of natural phenomena.
Who is wary of the presence and flow of the atmosphere?
As long as Mo Chen didn't take the initiative to promote the flow of the wind, and simply obtained information from its flow naturally, basically no one would be able to detect that the scope of his reconnaissance ability was quietly spreading.
However, this will also be more passive, and the size of the range and the timeliness of the information still depend on the natural flow of the wind, although the detection range will still be ridiculously large.
But the most important thing is that he is now encountering a witch who specializes in enchantment arts, and her spiritual power is not inferior to that of Kikyo, and if the other party is bent on covering up his whereabouts, it is easy to do.
Mo Chen is not omnipotent, and the current situation also makes him feel a little tricky, and he feels that it would be good if he was a little more sensitive before. Or maybe it's better to end the process of exploring the other world early and come back a little earlier.
It's just that he doesn't have any abilities such as "prophecy" and "true knowledge", and the laws of this world have not yet been updated with any classic game modes.
Not only does it indicate the direction, but it also indicates the change in the distance between itself and the target object at all times......
Now it seems that he can only consider some stupid and time-consuming methods, and he regrets that he thought he had failed before, so he didn't choose to directly give Hitomi his own divinity.
Otherwise, no matter where the other party is hiding now, it is impossible to hide his induction and lock.
"Well, I still have some time...... Need my help? ”
Erica didn't stay down for long, she quickly lifted her spirits, estimated the time, and then asked out loud.
She was very measured, and didn't ask what was going on, only if she needed help.
Mo Chen, who was thinking about what countermeasures to take, raised his head, and then shook his head again: "No need, I'll just handle this matter myself." ”
"Alright, now tell me your contact information, and I'll let you know when there's any news......"
The blonde girl looked him in the eye and said earnestly.
She didn't care about this, but felt that this was normal, although she was indeed curious about the witch's question, but after all, there were some things that outsiders really shouldn't interfere in.
- She herself is a member of the Red Bronze Black Cross Magic Society, so she naturally knows this better.
If it involves important magic research, or something like a high-level relic, these things can sometimes go wrong...... Trouble is trouble, and dealing with it definitely needs to be dealt with.
But it is never said that an outsider asks, "Do you need help?" Just be polite, and then really let the other party join......
"But I still have to warn you, that kind of thing really kills, from the eighteenth century to the present, there are only six kings, you better take this matter seriously."
Erica thought about it for a moment and decided to remind the other party:
"As long as you ignore it, Salbatreqing will not really be strong, forcing you to do this kind of thing, we will definitely stop him, and bet on the honor of the knight......"
"Ahh......h
Since it was involved in this matter, Mo Chen could only respond patiently, and then took out his mobile phone that had not been used for an unknown amount of time, and he almost forgot the boot password.
"It's best to cooperate with other communication methods, don't just use mobile phones, so as not to have problems with a single contact method when you get it......"
Erica pursed her lips, and then reminded her that it was best for the other party to leave a means of communication that belonged to the mysterious side, and by the way, she also swelled up with a trace of curiosity.
Because she wanted to see what kind of mysterious ability of the genre system this guy in front of her mastered, although there was magic, voodoo, necromancy, demon worship, and Taoism in this world...... And so on and so forth.
Depending on the characteristics of culture, the way in which mystical powers are used around the world has also evolved into completely different styles.
But the essence is not much different, and it can even be said that it is actually the same.
However, she still wants to see what kind of style this guy has, and what kind of mysterious power of the faction system he has.
It's definitely not a bad thing to gather more information like this, and to learn more about the stylistic characteristics of other systems.
"It's better to cooperate with other means of communication, not just use mobile phones? I see what you mean. ”
Mo Chen nodded, and then hesitated slightly, as if he was a little uncertain: "It's just that then again, you have QQ over there, okay?" ”
“……”
“……”
Erica inhaled and exhaled hard, and she finally understood that this guy definitely didn't understand what she meant.
……
……
Hitoko, a pale shrine maiden, is walking aimlessly on the road at night.
An invisible enchantment had always been maintained around her body.
It's not an enchantment for guarding, and it doesn't have any physical blocking ability, it's just to hide its own aura and isolate all forms of detection from the outside world.
Because it is a periphery of the city, it is relatively remote and has a sparse flow of people.
She walked blankly in the night, but no one noticed for a while. But she didn't know where she was going, she didn't even know the meaning of her existence, and she didn't understand what this strange world was all about.
Five hundred years later, this era is still too strange for the shrine maiden Hitomi.
Wide and smooth asphalt roads, neat green belts on the side of the road, street lights that appear at intervals, and traffic lights flashing in the distance......
These are beyond her common sense.
At that moment, with a slightly screeching sound of brakes, a car stopped beside her.
