75. Don't question my judgment
It's so absurd that it's a situation.
At first, just ask someone if they are an imposter.
Now as a "murderer", he lost his "murder weapon", and he can still go to the victim with a shy face to get it back.
If it weren't for the fact that the situation had come to a critical juncture, Lilian really wanted to cover her forehead with her hands, indicating that she was speechless.
She had already understood Nie Yuan's intentions at this moment, and of course she would not simply think that it was such a simple and easy thing to snatch the white blade empty-handed in front of this man.
Or rather, this is not a "snatch" at all, but his own hand slippery, and the clumsy knife technique seems to be completely to deliver food, and he played with it himself, and sent the weapon to someone else.
But no matter what the inside story is, such a scene really has to make people feel absurd and embarrassing.
Altley held the dagger in his hand, looked up sluggishly, and looked at Nie Yuan, who was standing in front of him with a sincere expression, and his palm stretched out in front of him, motionless.
The picture was frozen for several seconds in this state.
It can be seen that Nie Yuan sincerely made a request, wanting to get his dagger back, and then give Altley a knife, and should also say thank you and sorry.
It's really sincere and polite.
But as the one who was going to be stabbed or the chest, how could Artley, regardless of his status, hand him the dagger without any waves.
"Lord Liliane......"
Altley made a final plea to his master.
However, Lilian's attitude was very clear, and she chose to stand completely firmly on Nie Yuan's side.
"Artley, return the dagger to Nie Yuan, and leave everything to him, your declaration of loyalty to me is still in my ears, but I always trust your words." Lilian said lightly.
"But would you rather believe the slander of an outsider than me, who has served you all the year round?" Artley said patheticly.
"I'm going to believe you, very much."
Lillian replied, "But only if you're really Artley." ”
"Since you insist on it......"
Altley's expression was gloomy and resolute, and he raised his eyes and said, "Altley is willing to keep his promise and present his heart to you!" ”
"Good boy."
Earl Lilian looked at his loyal servant with satisfaction, and said, "This is the loyalty that Artley should have, I will remember you and your family, so now, don't hesitate any longer." ”
As if he had made some difficult decision, Altley looked at Nie Yuan with a determined gaze, and slowly presented the dagger in front of Nie Yuan.
"Okay."
Nie Yuan smiled and nodded, and said, "It's really the best employee of the year, I will let Lilian give you this title posthumously, never break your word, heroic and loyal...... Altley. ”
As he spoke, he slowly raised his hand and went to pick up the murderous thing that was also slowly handed over.
However, just as Nie Yuan's finger was about to touch the dagger, a sudden change occurred!
Altley, who was originally full of determination, suddenly staggered to one side and Nie Yuan, who didn't seem to be able to react.
The dagger that he was originally holding with both hands was also held by him with one hand, and like lightning, he stabbed Lilian to Lilian's location without saying a word!
He knew in his heart that Nie Yuan and the Shadow would definitely not be able to fight against him.
Even if you are caught off guard and hurt by yourself, it doesn't make any sense.
Nie Yuan's behavior just now has almost been declared, and he will definitely give himself a knife, even if he is lucky not to die and is not remedied, it can also be seen that these people will inevitably be determined to investigate to the end.
Then the only one he can threaten is Count Lilian!
The sudden scene made Lilian unable to react at all.
Before her surprised expression could be fully displayed on her face, she was already slaughtered in front of her by the fast Artley.
Only to feel a little cold light shining in front of her eyes, which made Lilian close her eyes instinctively.
But soon she opened her eyes, because she knew that she would definitely be fine, and the closing of her eyes just now was just a reflex.
That little bit of cold light stopped steadily at about ten centimeters in front of his eyebrows.
A palm that exuded an inky scent poked out from behind him and grabbed at the blade.
But soon, Lillian realized that something was wrong, because this fake Altley's figure was obviously extremely forward-leaning, and it stands to reason that such a state could not be maintained at all, and it should be planted straight to the ground.
As soon as she looked up again, she saw Nie Yuan behind the fake Altley, who also stretched out a hand and grabbed the back of the murderer's neck, so that he could not move in an inch.
At that time, Nie Yuan and Shadow basically shot at the same time, one after the other, which was equivalent to adding two layers of insurance to Lilian, and no one could cross the thunder pool and hurt her.
Crash~
As soon as Nie Yuan exerted his strength, he pulled the fake Altley up and returned to him.
And the dagger, too, was taken out of his hand, and remained in the palm of the shadow's hand.
Nie Yuan's voice came: "You see, I'm not wrong, he's a fake!" Don't question my judgment. ”
The Shadow placed the dagger lightly on the table, but did not speak.
Lilian looked at the fake Altley who was struggling in Nie Yuan's hand with a dangerous expression, and said:
"I've never distrusted you Nie Yuan, now, give him to the Shadow!"
Nie Yuan didn't do it immediately, but said: "I saw the expressions of the two of you just now, so I can't believe it, as for this fake......"
Halfway through speaking, Nie Yuan stopped, looked at the fake Altley, and said, "Are you willing to be the leader of the party?" As long as we find other fakes, we'll let you go. ”
"I can't do it, and I can't ...... it"
Without giving him a chance to finish his words, Nie Yuan crushed it into a cloud of twisted smoke, which quickly dissipated.
Nie Yuan looked at Lilian and said: "These ghost things, it's useless to torture them, I even suspect that they don't even feel pain, last time there was a similar thing that said, they only live or die, there is no half-life and immortality, then the torture will not be able to start." ”
Lilian witnessed the whole process of the fake turning into a canopy of gray smoke, and naturally knew that Nie Yuan had not deceived herself.
She muttered, "I did have that plan just now, but now it seems that I can only check the people who have been to Paz Town one by one, or ...... All are intended to be fakes. ”
Nie Yuan opened his mouth and said: "I just said that I would come directly to the knife when I saw someone, I was just testing Altley, don't take it seriously." ”
Count Lillian smiled and said, "Didn't you say that cruelty and cruelty is the image I have in your mind?" ”
Nie Yuan was noncommittal and said, "Then it's up to you, it's not my subordinate anyway." ”
Count Lilian pondered for a while and said, "When it comes to several henchmen, it is difficult for me to execute them all here, if there are too many mistakes, it will be chilling."
Next, I'm busy, and all the plans for the afternoon have been canceled, so let's talk about it next time Nie Yuan, I still don't want you to see a certain side of me. ”
"Well, then be careful yourself, I'll go."
"Wait, I'm not done yet."
"What else?"
Count Lilian pondered for a while, and finally said, "You go back and prepare, after the church knows about this matter, if there is any action against the town of Path, then it should be the last attempt."
If you want to harness their power, that is the best opportunity, and the only one.
Because if we fail this time, there will be no reason why the Intramura Church will not come, and it will be difficult for us to intervene, and I will be under a lot of pressure at that time. ”
"Okay."
Nie Yuan said he knew, and then said goodbye and left, walking all the way out of Lilian Manor.
He didn't worry about what Lillian would do with them, and the subordinates who might have been replaced, let alone Lilian's safety.
She's a smart person, and she's certainly not going to stand under a wall.
As long as the Shadow hadn't been to Paz and wasn't at risk of being replaced, then there was nothing to worry about.
Although he hadn't practiced with Xiao Hei who was always hiding in the shadows, Nie Yuan could sense that that guy was definitely not simple.
When Nie Yuan returned to Buck's bookstore, business was just right, and in the afternoon, there were many people who came to see and buy books.
Georgie and the Aztecs, busy with business inside.
As the owner of the shop, Buck sat leisurely at the counter cashier, and Nancy sat next to him, more old than Buck.
She even put her little feet on the counter and lay there on her back, basking in the sunlight from outside the house, while listening to her baby radio and reviewing the stories of the past few days.
"Tomorrow, the protagonist who is full of suspicions will embark on the road of crusading against the real murderer, he will definitely encounter some resistance, but he is also bound to unmask the murderer and let the other party face his gaze......"
On the radio, a familiar male voice is heard, telling Nancy's favorite story.
Seeing that Nie Yuan was back, Nancy put down her little feet and greeted: "Nie Yuan, so fast, that evil woman didn't make things difficult for you, right?" ”
Nie Yuan smiled and said, "No, she can't make it difficult for me now." ”
"That's good, if she makes things difficult for you like that time, remember to take me with you, and I'll bite her to death."
Nancy said, baring her white, neat teeth again.
At this time, Buck also spoke, and said, "What did she say over there?" ”
Nie Yuan replied: "Now she is cleaning up her manor, and some ghost things have also been mixed into her command, but the situation is not serious, and it can be dealt with within today."
And then let's prepare for the last chance if there is action on the church side. ”
"Okay."
Buck said: "Then there should be some time, the church will censor itself, it won't be so fast, and in the next two days, you can study the lost alchemy again."
In the morning, I deduced that the formula you deciphered should at least play a role in the casting of your blood system.
There are just two materials that we can't collect for the time being, and Lillian can't help much, and even if we find a replacement, there is no guarantee that the final product will be of high quality.
Those few materials that you can't be sure of, if I crack one or two more in the next two days, it will also play a very important role in my deduction. ”
Nie Yuan replied: "I will try my best, in addition to this formula about the blood system, I will also try to decipher other formulas that may help us in advance." ”
When he was able to mention the blood system in Buck before, he immediately thought of the Chaos Holy Blood recipe recorded in "Lost Alchemy", which was completely because of the early decipherment.
I don't have blood myself, and this formula just has the word "blood".
When Nie Yuan was looking through it, he naturally paid more attention to it, and by the way, he compared the books from another world and deciphered some materials that he had never heard of.
Although there are two flavors of materials, they can't be translated, and there are five or six flavors that are even guessed, and they are not sure.
But in the process, he also figured out a little trick.
That is, to read the above text in a crooked tone, whether it is meant in Chinese or English, it is often easier to inspire decipherment.
Because for the whole world at the moment, isn't it equivalent to crooked nuts, copying the feeling of those syllables?
If he had continued his research and kept in mind the names of some of the obscure alchemical materials, he should have been able to decipher more details.
Then Buck's subsequent deduction will be much simpler.
The successful refining of the handwriting of truth has already declared the unimaginable gold content of these two "Lost Alchemy".
Maybe some of the above recipes will suddenly be used one day, just like the Chaos Holy Blood that suddenly remembered him.
Therefore, it is necessary to decipher it in advance.
