Who is she?

Why did she lead us here?

What exactly is she trying to do?

The Oak Wise Man's light grew brighter and darker, shining on the gloomy faces of the two men, and they all fell silent as they looked at the roster on the table.

If it weren't for this roster, they would still be in the dark, toyed with by Illinois, foolishly manipulated by her.

However, I am afraid that even Illinois did not expect that the old Kant would have the habit of keeping a diary and recording a register.

These two things reveal too much information, if the previous two were like marionettes, controlled by the thread hidden in the shadows, then now, the thread hidden behind the puppet is broken!

Claire muttered.

"Who the hell is that woman named Illinois? “

Now, both of them were even wondering if there was such a person as Illinois, or maybe Illinois was just a name that the woman had made up casually.

Dia shook her head.

"The few we know about her at the moment is that she is extremely familiar with the inside of the Bloody Hand Thieves. ”

"And she's a ranger. “

Claire furrowed her brow, unable to figure out what to do.

"There are two lies about her, the first is to forge the identity of the Bloody Hand Thieves, which we have already discovered, and the second is that she has concealed her identity as a ranger, and I have a hunch that if we can find clues about her lies, we will be able to see through the truth she is hiding and her purpose. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

They don't want to find out the truth at all!

They just wanted to hurry down to the sea to the city of Selen, where the water was too deep.

The mysterious skinner, the mysterious Illinois, the mysterious truth, and the mysterious city lord.

On the surface, the city of Lenkawa is only in a panic because of the cultists, but in fact, there is a turbulent undercurrent in the secret, and it is an abyssal vortex that devours life.

In the land of right and wrong, you can walk quickly.

Dia pondered for a moment and looked up at Claire.

"Actually, we ignored the question, all of this is only based on the fact that Illinois does have ghosts, what if she just wants to use her identity as a group of Bloody Hand Thieves to gain our trust, so as to dispel their vigilance and help us?"

Claire sighed.

"I hope so. ”

"Two days ago, the City Lord's Mansion and the Blood Hand Thieves failed to exterminate the cultists, and yesterday we found her unconscious in the river, and the timing was too coincidental. ”

Judging from her injuries and strength at that time, it is unlikely that she is an outsider. “

She had admitted that she had been hunted by the Cultists, but she was not a member of the Bloody Hand Thieves. ”

"What exactly is her role in and why did she lead us here, and if we don't know that, we won't be in a safe position. “

It's like a pair of eyes in the dark, staring at you behind all the time, creepy.

"It's easy to verify this, if it's really her work and we're here as she wants, then she's ready to meet us. ”

"What's next for her? Seriously, I hate this sense of passivity. ”

"There's no way, I can only take a step to see the move. Dia shrugged.

Although they are unwilling, they can only reluctantly accept the current situation now, since they have come here, it means that they have stepped into the trap of Illinois, and it is not so simple to get out.

"Let's go, let's go out first, this is not a good place to talk, the noise in the battle just now is not small, maybe it has already attracted the attention of the patrol. ”

......

"Who!"

As soon as she walked out of the dark room, Claire's eyes were fixed, holding a bow and arrows, and her movements were so fast that they were difficult to catch with the naked eye.

In the darkness, a vague black shadow appeared for a moment, then vanished, and the tracking arrow lost its target and landed on the ground.

"He escaped into the shadow plane. Claire's expression was slightly solemn, no matter how powerful her perception was, it was impossible to find the enemy through the plane.

Rumble!... The surrounding houses suddenly burst into flames, and the surrounding area instantly turned into a sea of fire.

Dia's pupils contracted slightly, and she exclaimed, "I know what Illinois has brought us in!"

Screams, shouting, and burning, the surroundings suddenly fell into chaos, and the noisy sound muffled many imperceptible sounds.

For example, the slight cracking sound of the dagger slicing through the air.

Poof... The dagger stabbed Dia in the back.

"Damn it!"

Claire, who realized it later, scolded angrily, and slashed out a silver crescent with her double knives.

Bite.

Sparks flew, and the black shadow retreated rapidly with the help of the reaction force of the blade clashes, and his body seemed to ignore the rules of physics, and disappeared into the night lightly but unusually quickly.

The head is so heavy... A strong feeling of vertigo rushes over the brain, thinking slower and slower, and things in front of you blur.

Dia shook her head vigorously to try to cheer up, but to no avail, and even made the dizziness more and more intense, and by the time he wanted to transform, it was too late.

Claire hugged Dia, who had passed out, and her face became more and more ugly.

Can't sense the location of the shadow!

The dagger appeared silently again.

Bite...

Claire gritted her teeth and said, "Illinois, are you just repaying your life-saving benefactor?" ”

The person in front of him made him have to believe that this was Illinois, the two came to the slum, the old Kant happened to be killed, the two came out of the dark room, and they were suddenly attacked, all this was almost arranged.

"Huh?" The black shadow paused slightly, and did not escape into the shadow plane again.

"You just said you saved Illinois?"

Claire was stunned for a moment, how did this voice sound milky, listen to her, she is not Illinois?

"That's right. ”

"Evidence. The dark shadow spoke coldly.

"She was chased by cultists and fell into the river. “

"Where is she now?" said the dark shadow's tone with some urgency.

"I don't know. ”

She was silent for a moment, then put away the dagger in her hand.

"You don't have to die. “

With that, the black shadow turned away and disappeared into the night without a sound.

Claire was still uneasy and guarded for a long time, and was relieved to see that the black shadow was really leaving.

Looking in the direction the shadow had left, Claire muttered.

If only he and the black shadow fight to the death, it is really not certain who will kill the deer, he is confident that he has at least a fifty percent chance of winning, but ...... Claire glanced at Dia.

It's still inexperienced.,The enemies you've encountered recently are too weak.,Make you lose your sense of crisis and alertness.,Become a lot more careless.,If you can choose to transform for the first time.,The extraordinary physique can completely resist the effect of poison.。

After thinking about it, Claire took off the phase ring from Dia's hand, "I'll take it anyway." ”

"You go and put out the fire. ”

"Captain, here's the body of a cultist. ”

The patrol was late, and Claire shook her head and quietly left with Dia.

"Friend, don't rush to leave. ”

A bald man with a giant axe stepped around the corner, grinned at Claire, and stopped in the way.

"Don't you explain?"

He pointed to the fire behind him.
