Chapter 112: The Thousand-Faced Enchantress

Night. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The capital of the Kazan Empire is brightly lit. It was an empire that loved to entertain, and the entertainment facilities during this period were almost the best in any empire. Kazan is incredibly rich, home to the world's largest magic crystal mine, the world's best hotels, and the world's largest casino.

This is the world's number one consumer market, and almost all the most fashionable clothing and jewelry brands can be found in Kazan. Every year, countless tourists from other empires come here to shop, gamble, and travel.

This is known as the mecca of the Empire that never sleeps.

Every Kazan is very wealthy. Other empires or rare magic crystal screens are available in every family, and they can watch the Garden Trials from the comfort of their own homes. Of course, there are also many people who are local to the imperial capital who want to directly participate in the grand event of the garden trial. Ignoring the darkness of the night, they all gathered at the scene of the trial, and surrounded the knights, who had been watching the screen for almost ten days.

Kazan's official pride is on this, and it's a passion unique to the Kazan people. But it is not very popular with the knights of other empires, especially the group of the Holy Radiance Empire, if it weren't for the deep cultivation, Marianne would probably have scolded the crowd around her.

Kazan's trial officer is a well-known host, and he stands generously on the officially set stage, which seems to be a bit exaggerated. There were twelve knights standing beside him, not far away, so that the knights could almost smell the smell of his body.

"Let's welcome the elite knights from all the empires!" he shouted. "What they are about to face is a trial of wisdom carefully set up by our Kazan!" this guy announced the beginning of the trial in a long tone, and the atmosphere of the scene was brought to a hot place, and some people even took off their coats and pants and waved them in their hands to express their enthusiasm.

"What a bunch of unscrupulous guys!" said Marianne's face was about to burst into bruises. Now in this scene, the most suitable is the knights of the Kazan Empire itself.

"Wisdom! It is the fuel for mankind to advance! It is the sword given by the gods! Only the wisest knight can stand at the top of the garden trial!" the host shouted, "In my place, a puzzle has been prepared, and only the person who solves the puzzle the fastest can be called the victor in the wisdom trial!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to a slowly rising crystal platform, "Now let's announce the title of the puzzle, oh my God?!"

The guy covered his mouth with his exaggerated disgusting acting skills and screamed, "Our puzzle was actually stolen!"

The egret is about to commit the embarrassment of seeing, this idiot didn't even open the box on the crystal table, he knew that the puzzle inside was *** sick, right?

However, the contempt of the crowd did not stop the presenter, he opened the box in an exaggerated posture and read out the text of the card inside the box.

"Glorious nights, sleepless city. To add to the pleasure of the trial, I have taken away your wisdom. Leave a message, Thousand-Faced Enchantress!"

"Our topic has been stolen!" the host made a look of grief, and then quickly changed his expression. "However, this is not difficult for the elite knights of our various empires, in order to make the trial have a result. We're temporarily changing the way we try to do it, and tonight, the knights' mission is to catch this Thousand-Faced Demon Queen!"

"The first knight to capture the Enchantress with a Thousand Faces is the ultimate winner of this trial!Oh, and one more thing, in order not to spread the influence, each of you only has three chances to identify the culprit. ”

How boring does this have to be? To be able to direct and perform such a gimmick.

The corners of the egret's mouth twitched, and she looked at Lulu helplessly.

"Let's go. The title is out. Now it's time to track down who the culprit is. ”

"That's it? that's it, no hints?" Lulu said, surprised.

Isn't that enough?

Egret looked at Lulu a little inexplicably, and suddenly came up with an idea in his heart, and pulled out a wicked smile on his mouth: "Do you want to be an investigator once?"

Lulu didn't know why, but she knew that the egret must have a plan in mind, so she nodded and looked at the egret excitedly.

"This is not the place to talk. With that, Egret took Lulu to the side of the restaurant, and the two of them each ordered a drink.

Only then did the egret arrange the task: "First of all, we have to understand one thing, and that is the so-called task, which is the test of our wisdom. The host's performance just now is actually just setting the topic. ”

"Everybody knows that. Lulu rolled her eyes. "Getting to the point!"

"Okay. There are three important points that we know, first, the prisoner stole the subject. Second, the prisoner left the card, do you remember the message on the card?"

"Of course remember, glorious nights, sleepless city. To add to the pleasure of the trial, I have taken away your wisdom. Message, Enchantress with a Thousand Faces!" Lulu repeated.

"Very well, thirdly, that is, the prisoner is a thousand-faced enchantress. ”

The egret took a sip of his drink and continued to speak.

"All the clues were actually given. First of all, this is the capital of the Kazan Empire, and this one is a garden trial. It is a situation of national concern, so the whole process of theft is simply not possible. Otherwise, we don't have to judge, and the live broadcast will expose the true face of the prisoner. ”

This is for sure, the live broadcast uses a magic guide, which will automatically broadcast everyone's pictures in an area, if the crime is happening in the trial scene, then a point can be judged from the replay screen, this is not a test of wisdom, but a test of eyesight.

"So for sure. The so-called prisoner is a bait that has been laid out from the beginning. All of this has already been arranged before the assignment of the question. Our goal is not to find the prisoner, but to find the person with the question card on him. ”

Lulu nodded, it wasn't hard to tell. With the abrupt way of trying and the pitiful lack of information, the only way to judge a prisoner is whether he has stolen goods on his body.

"Secondly, glorious nights, sleepless cities. To add to the pleasure of the trial, I have taken away your wisdom. What information can you get from this?" asked Egret at Lulu.

"Ugh. Lulu pondered for a moment before she spoke uncertainly. "First glorious nights, sleepless city. This should be said to be the time and place. The capital of the entire Kazan is the capital that never sleeps, and it should be said that the range, well, the prisoners are in this city. As for adding to the pleasure of the trial, I have taken away your wisdom. It should be said that the prisoner took the topic. ”

"Well, you didn't say it. Egret pursed his lips, "You should consider why the message says wisdom, not something more precise than a question card." ”

Lulu was stunned for a moment, then reacted. Yes, the prisoner was talking about wisdom, not about specific objects. Such a statement is very strange here, for example, if someone steals your money and wants to leave a message, it will definitely be written that they took your money, not metaphorically as something irrelevant. In particular, this metaphor has no connection with the question card, the word wisdom is abstract, but the question card is clear.

"Besides, what can you think of with the word Thousand-Faced Enchantress?" the egret asked.

"Hmm, a prisoner who is good at disguise change?" Lulu said.

"That's right. So all things considered, there's one such tip in front of you. The prisoner is a woman disguised as a trial worker, who prides herself on being highly intelligent, and who will never leave during a trial. Egret smiled, "The premise of being able to take the question card and arrange it all in advance proves that the other party is disguised as a staff member." A thousand faces show that the other party has extremely superb camouflage skills, and the word enchantress, it indicates the gender of the prisoner!

Lulu's eyes widened, as if she saw a youkai. The egret always seems to be able to see the whole process of things from small places, which is simply terrifying to Lulu.

"Please remind me never to tell you a lie in the future. Lulu began, "Your ability to see through details is terrifying. ”

"This is just the simplest reasoning, and I'm afraid it won't be any more difficult than an introductory course for the inquisitor. Egret shook his head helplessly, he had cooperated with the investigator before, even if it was Lilith, as long as he read the card message, he could judge it.

"Wait. According to what you say, you can easily get the answer by simply checking all the staff at the trial?" Lulu asked in surprise.

Egret gestured to Lulu, and Lulu looked in the direction Egret was pointing, Marianne of the Radiance Empire took Jack to check on the female staff, and the knights of the Banke Empire did the same. This shows that the two empires also have the same idea.

"No, we need to act quickly. As soon as Lulu finished speaking, she was about to get up, but was pulled by the egret.

Egret looked at Lulu with a smile, "If it were so easy, it wouldn't be worthy of being called a wisdom trial." ”

"But, they check and check, and they will always find it!" Lulu looked at the egret in confusion, since she had thought of it, she should be ahead of everyone.

"The Thousand-Faced Demon Queen, although she said that she can disguise herself as a woman, she doesn't have to dress up as a woman!"

"Huh?!" Lulu was stunned for a moment, and then looked over to the field, most of the staff on the trial ground were serving the audience, and due to the extremely large number of people, there were naturally a lot of staff. There are no less than 300 people who provide services just in person, and if you count the logistics and auxiliary media live broadcast personnel, it is even more than 500 people, and I don't know if it is intentional, the ratio of men and women on the scene is perfectly adjusted to half to half. If this number is to be checked, not to mention that there are only three chances to identify, this act alone will make people laugh, this is a test of wisdom, not a test of luck!

"Anyone who is affected by these factors and recklessly goes to inspect the staff is afraid that they have fallen into a blind spot. ”

"What blind spots?" Lulu said curiously.

"To put it simply, there is a math problem that he has many ways to solve. After most people have learned one solution, they will not bother with other solutions, because they can already do this problem, and if you write two or three solutions, it will not add points. There was no need for him to waste more brain energy learning other solutions. As is the case today, when you know that there is a way to get an answer, and you only need to spend a little physical effort, you don't think about going deeper, and this is the most obvious pitfall in this wisdom trial. ”

The egret stretched out his finger and shook it, "The wisdom test is to see if you notice the most critical point. ”

"Who, for example, is more like, 'Wisdom has been taken away'!"
