The guardian power of the ritual in the embassy naturally also includes the underground, and Abner used the giant bear to wander around the area for a long time before discovering the only abandoned prison that was not covered.

It is said to be abandoned because the exit of this prison has been completely filled in, cut off from the embassy, and can no longer be called a part of the embassy in strict speaking.

"It is said that the house was sold to Intis as an embassy as a villa for a count, and that this cell was supposed to be the count's private place for the 'prisoners'......

"Well, the earl probably doesn't want his private prison to be exposed, most likely because he ordered someone to fill it in before the property was handed over......

"And Intis may not have found it, or maybe it found it but didn't care...... In short, it has been abandoned ever since......

"It's convenient for me, though...... I was going to dig a cave out of my own using 'earth-type spells'......"

Turning back into a human form, Abner took out his clothes from his backpack and put them on, speculating about the origin of the abandoned prison as he continued to pull out spiritual materials and carve and set up an altar filled with symbols, magical symbols, evil patterns, and distorted spiritual numbers.

After a night of "analysis", Abner had determined that the "Guardian Rite" that shrouded the embassy had three core altars, each with a "Level 2" seal or equivalent magical item.

Therefore, this "ritual" also has three basic abilities:

The first is to detect and sense unshielded people or things related to evil, chaos, and madness. This is the basic function of the ritual, which can run on its own without excitation and give timely warnings. Once the ritual is activated, the detection sense becomes a "forbidden" for evil, chaos, madness, and other related abilities.

Second, as Abner had speculated before, it was specifically aimed at the ability to check "psychological stealth". As soon as the psychological disharmony is discovered, the celebrant of the ceremony is immediately warned.

Of course, there is also an upper limit to the "checking" ability of this ritual, but Abner is not sure what level of "psychological invisibility" he can see, anyway, the low-profile version he simulated will definitely not be able to hide it.

Third, the embassy's "guardian rituals" can create "barriers" after being stimulated, which can be used to trap intruders and protect ordinary people. The strength of the "barrier" is high, it is difficult to break below the high sequence, and it is the same for all types of attacks.

"The 'detection' and the 'forbidden' ability after activation should come from the magical items of the 'judge' ability.

"'Inspection' is like the work of a 'polymath' who has done a 'weakness analysis' specifically for 'psychological stealth'...... Perhaps some 'Erudito' was involved in the construction of the ritual, or maybe a targeted 'occult technique' developed by a 'mystical master' was exploited by the constructor?

"The 'Barrier' should be the core competency of the 'Guardian'......

"Tsk, the ritual with the sequence of items as the core of the three pieces is really generous.

"In the original book, Mr. A probably knew about the existence of this 'guardian ritual' in advance, so he used the 'vehicle' to hide and blend in, and used the ability of the 'corrupt baron' to distort the ambassador's order, so as to complete the one-on-one assassination."

Abner sighed as a new altar had been erected, and he placed a pitch-black chainmail glove on it.

It was the only extraordinary item he had obtained in the mausoleum of Baron Conva, the Hand of Wisdom.

"When your enemies have lost their minds through hubris, you are wise." Recalling this sentence in the "Hand of Wisdom" analysis report, the corners of Abner's mouth hooked slightly.

Speaking of which, his ritual transformation plan is essentially to add a "core" to the embassy's "guardian ceremony", and use the new "core" to weaken or even control the original function of the ceremony.

In order to complete this plan, not only must you have a master-level ritual magic level, you must know the ritual arrangement in the embassy well, and the most crucial step is to associate the "core" altar he has arranged with the other three cores.

It's easy to say that for Abner, who has a "pure white eye", it is only a matter of time before he wants to completely "parse" the ritual clearly...... However, the step of "association" is not a coincidence, and it is easy to be discovered by the presiding officer of the ceremony.

Of course, Abner knew very well that the presiding officer could not have been in front of the core altar all the time, and even slackened off because of the long period of stability...... But he didn't dare to bet on this, what if the other party happened to check the core of the altar on a whim while he was acting? Wouldn't that be bad?

"Therefore, it is safest to wait until tomorrow morning to get the information from Hugh and find a time when the other party is not there to complete the last step."

Thinking so, Abner looked at his pocket watch and realized that it was not too early, so he took off his clothes, put them back in his bag, and then dived into the ground again as a giant bear, all the way to the underground safe house that the teacher had dug in the first place.

In the process, he tried to avoid the direction of Williams Street, lest he be careless and face with some three-in-one evil spirit.

……

At the same time, in the ancient hall above the gray mist, Crane held a strange black ear and wrote a divination statement:

"The origin of this item."

The reason why it was so miserable last time was because the divination was the blood of the gods, and he looked directly at the eternal sun, and this time he only used the items left by the "listener", which is definitely not so dangerous......

Crane thought steadily, took a breath, leaned back, and silently recited the divination phrase.

After seven times, his eyes deepened and he fell into a deep sleep.

With a thud, his veins burst open, and the green tendons detached from his body, spreading outward into slippery, wicked tentacles, and the gray mist swayed slightly, giving the giant-like palace a few signs of corrosion.

Unlike the time of the Eternal Sun, Crane still had his sanity, and he didn't roll on the ground, he clung to the handrail and endured it.

After a few seconds, the faint gray mist calmed down, and the evil voice echoing in Crane's head died down completely.

The "tentacles" fell, and his wounds began to heal rapidly.

He even looked directly at the "true creator...... However, He seems to be a little stronger than the Eternal Sun......

Just as Crane let out a weak sigh, the black ear in his palm suddenly collapsed, turning into tiny points of light, light black points of light, and finally coalesced into an iron-black charm.

After divining the function of the spell "to death" again, he shook his head, and after getting rid of the constant roar in his ears, Crane whispered:

"Just call it 'filthy words'......"

……

On Tuesday morning, Abner came to his dining room to read the newspaper and enjoy a hearty breakfast prepared by Mrs. Scudder.

In an uproar, Abner flipped through the "Daily Observer", and suddenly saw a piece of news on the second page:

"In the early hours of this morning, there was a fierce shootout in the heart of White Rum Street Park in the Bridge District, which, according to the police, may have involved a clash between two gangs, one of which is the notorious Zmange Party."

This is the encounter between MI9 and Intis intelligence officers in the original book? That's what Hugh said when he left yesterday?

Abner put a piece of bacon in his mouth and thought thoughtfully.

Just then, there was a knock at the door outside the dining room, and Hugh, who was carrying a bag, walked in as he was led in by Mrs. Scudder.

Because Abner knew she was coming, breakfast was prepared for her. And Hugh was not polite...... More likely to be hungry...... In short, after eating three fluffy and crispy croissants and drinking a cup of coffee, she wiped her mouth and said, "I'll help you sort out the information you want." ”

"Good work." Abner smiled and nodded. It can be seen from the other party's mental head that this young lady should have not slept all night.

Hugh didn't find it too hard, she used to stay up late when she was a "arbiter" in the Eastern District, and she had long been used to it. Abner had been helping her solve so many problems, and Hugh was extremely happy to be able to give him some help.

Hugh then spoke of her mission last night, spoke of the half-clear words of the Lady Vera, and finally asked, "What do you think that Highness means?" ”

Abner lowered his head and pondered for a while, combined with the "conspiracy" of the Intis ambassador in the original book, and soon had a rough guess:

"I think that Her Highness Vera is trying to wipe out Intis's intelligence agents."
