Chapter 46: I can't see through it
The day dawned, and the soft sunlight shone on the town of Shire, gently awakening the town...... Or rather, the town has already been woken up.
Most of the residents didn't know what happened in the first half of the night, and they didn't know that there was a fierce battle so close to them, but they knew very well that the huge movement in the second half of the night, the dazzling pillars of light, and the roar of the earthquake had awakened this hard-working town earlier than ever.
When everyone was confused, Bero brought news that the sheriffs had rescued a group of Inhumans nearby, and these suffering people would soon come to them to rest here, hoping that everyone would help.
Without saying a word, the kind residents took action, and this morning the town was more lively than ever, the adults did not go out to work, the children did not go to the church to study, and everyone kept taking out their own food, medicine, and warm clothes. Tents were set up in the square, iron pots were erected, and they waited for their arrival.
On the country road to Shire, a team was moving slowly, and Mo, who was standing at the front of the line, kept casting his eyes to the back of the team to see the two struggling figuresβone should be said to be fighting, the other being being beaten.
The one who was making trouble was Lottie, and the one who was beaten was an uninvited guest - Jiang Heng, who had just met for the first time.
"Hello kid, you just appeared now!Do you know how anxious I was when I didn't see you in Chief Mo's team!" Lottie kept arguing beside Jiang Heng, although her eyes were full of anger, she could feel her worry at that time. "Also, you are so desperate to die alone, you actually go alone to hunt down the enemy leader, there is so much difference between you, what if you are killed before you use that or what crystal bomb!"
Jiang Heng looked like he was apologizing, kept waving his hand, and explained, "Okay, okay, I'm sorry, I won't be so reckless next time." But I also told Sister Yijia before, I was worried that the enemy would escape from pursuit, didn't you ask them?"
"I, I, forgot. At that, Lottie's face turned red. Because so much had happened at such a time, she had forgotten what she was most worried about in the first place.
"Alright, you two, this is the noisiest place for you. Iga reminded from the side.
Mo turned his head and stared at the spreading road ahead.
When Jiang Heng came out of the woods just now, he was in tatters, limping, and his face was pale, not only did he look weak, but after Pastor Eli examined him, he also concluded that he was overly weak.
He said that he went to track down the enemy leader, namely Gavaren, and was found to have used a portable polycrystalline bomb in the face of his survival, and he said that his father had left him one to save his life, and found some as he passed by the enemy's arsenal. So, Gaivalen died.
When everyone was surprised that this weapon had such great power, Jiang Heng popularized the knowledge for everyone, talking about electron acceleration, mass-charge separation, neutron collision, and so on. If it weren't for Mo's previous grades and graduation for so many years, he still remembers some of them, and it is estimated that he would be like Ah Han next to him at this time.
Thinking of this, Mo couldn't help but glance at Han, the whole person's eyes were glazed, and he noticed Mo's gaze and showed a smirk.
It's over, kid. It is estimated that for him to understand this knowledge, it is more painful than the injury he is suffering now. Not only Han, but others were also more or less diverted from the subject and began to discuss the extent to which the current magic guide weapon had reached.
But Mo knew very well in his heart that this kid was not honest and did not tell the truth.
Although the vast majority of the current magic guide weapons were developed based on previous combat skills, the pillar of light just now was definitely not something that could be caused by any weapon. Besides, it is impossible for a portable magic crystal bomb to explode so straight, and can he throw bombs at so many places at the same time by himself? This is not a roadside wild fruit, it can be included in the list of strategic weapons by a country, even Biyan City can't take out one. This is also thanks to the fact that there is a communication barrier between Biyan City and the current advanced regions, even the sheriffs present rarely understand the current level of development of magic technology, so it is so easy to be fooled.
The clumsiness of this kind of lie, in Mo's opinion, is better than directly saying that the family sent rescuers. Although judging from his speculation, it was indeed someone from Jiang Heng's family.
However, Mo didn't say anything, he was a smart person, he knew that Jiang Heng was also a smart person, and there were some things that didn't need to be said explicitly.
Thinking of this, Mo turned back, walked to Jiang Heng's side, and patted him on the shoulder enthusiastically, "I heard that your kid is a third-line genius, but now that I see it, I realize that you not only have talent, but also courage and strategy, and your future is immeasurable." β
Looking at Mo's approving eyes, Jiang Heng was slightly stunned, and he didn't understand what he wanted to do for a while.
"Oh, that's right, your kid is still a third-line, you didn't even tell me before!" a heavy slap slapped Jiang Heng's back.
"Tap, tap, sister. Jiang Heng showed a painful expression, "My body is still very weak, besides, you haven't asked before." β
Juniors, there are still a lot of things you have to learn, for example, for the sake of your seniors, when your seniors don't think of what they need, help prepare first. β
"Then I'll go back later, and help prepare a coffin first, anyway, sooner or later. β
A few seconds after this sentence was finished, it was the chase that everyone liked to see, and the two of them ran around the whole team one after the other, "I was wrong! I owe it! I'm still an injured number!" "I don't care if you're sick or not, you have to clean up today." β
Anyway, the vitality of the two of them also made the team, which had just eased a little, smile, and Mo stared at Jiang Heng, who was fleeing frantically and smiling, feeling that he couldn't see through this person for a while.
His identity is disguised, his strength is hidden, and most of the records in the archives of Biyan City are fake, such a person is really a mystery......
At this moment, at the junction of the forest and the canyon behind them, next to Gavaren's corpse, two dark figures appeared out of thin air.
The breath followed a group and left. A black-robed man said.
"They didn't notice us, did they?" asked another black-robed man, a little worried.
"Don't worry. He walked over to Gavaren, "I can't beat them, but there's no way they'll find me. β
He crouched down next to Gavren's corpse and examined his wounds, "Well, he died from a sharp weapon piercing his heart, it should be a sword, but it seems to be a little different from the usual style." β
Another black-robed man walked to the corner where the specimens and data files were stacked, picked up one of the file bags, opened it and looked at it, "These people are doing a good job, but it's a pity that they're dead." β
Putting down the document in his hand, he observed the specimen again, which was actually the processed demon limb, "The sample is not bad, but," his eyes looked into the distance, which seemed to be the direction of the team's departure, "This place should have been targeted, and I can't start here in the future." It's a pity that this kind of remote place with many samples is not common. But why don't they take it all with them?"
After examining the corpse, the black-robed man stood up, "I don't know about this, I guess it has something to do with those Inhumans." β
"Hey," the other black-robed man laughed, "I don't think they'll care about a bunch of Inhumans who don't even have Akabane. β
That's why I said, that's just my estimate. The black-robed man pulled out a metal six-sided cube, which appeared to be a delicate instrument, with a crystal oval eye inlaid at the front, multiple sphere buttons at the back, and a red hexagonal pyramid bulge at the top.
As he manipulated his hand, some orb buttons were pressed, and the eye lit up, sending rays from its gaze, scattering and moving in all directions, a golden-red glow enveloping all the areas that the eye could see. And the hexapone protrusion at the top of it also slowly rose, and the yellow-white magic source gathered at the tip along the edge of the hexagonal pyramid, and spread out, this light that was different from the eye rays, in a small space above, constructed an optical model that was completely consistent with the eye scanning area.
The Black-robed Man One carefully circled the device so that the eye's rays could scan other areas, and in the process, the model above was constantly refined.
After a long while, finally, the model of this area has been fully rubbed, turning into a ray of light again, merging into the instrument along the lines of the surface of the hexagonal prism, and the black-robed man number one pressed a few more buttons, and the crystal eye also withdrew the ray, as if closed.
Exhaled, "Alright, we're done here, let's go to the next place." β
Black-robed man No. 2 pointed to the pile in the corner, "Then what are we going to do with these?"
After thinking for a while, the black-robed man number one asked, "Are there any traces of these documents being opened?"
After observing for a while, "It's all freshly printed, and it hasn't been opened yet." β
The black-robed man No. 1 nodded, "That's good, we'll take all the documents with us, these samples...... Even if you don't leave some of those people, it may still arouse suspicion, and there are quite a few other places anyway. β
Hearing this, the black-robed man No. 2 nodded, and took out a small bag, only the size of a palm, with a retractable bag-like opening, with a dark blue surface, which looked like some kind of animal skin to the touch, and the most conspicuous thing was a sign on it, a circle composed of an infinite reciprocating line - the Ring of MΓΆbius.
He opened the opening, aimed the opening at the documents, the magic source poured into the pocket from his hand, and its opening also flashed a strange blue light, under the deliberate control of the black-robed man No. 2, the documents illuminated by the light slowly shrunk, and finally were sucked into the pocket.
Tightened his pocket, tossed up and down in his hand, and felt the weight inside, "Even if you say you want to take the sample away, there is no way, this space bag is full." β
"Hmph. The black-robed man No. 1 snorted, "The space sac sold by the Temple of Time and Space can hold so few things, and it is so expensive, it's angry to think about it, don't worry about it for now, let's go to the next place." β
As his words fell, the figures of the two black-robed men disappeared again out of thin air.
