Chapter 362: Misfortune Leads to the East
Chen Lun strolls through the streets of Huaqing Town.
Feeling the peaceful and lively atmosphere, he smiled.
Before you know it, you will come to the square area.
There are many hawkers, most of whom were bankrupt due to the red plague, and after the town was restored to peace, they started small businesses to make ends meet.
The most popular is a commercial carriage, surrounded by a large number of people.
A man in a top hat stood by the car, negotiating with several mine owners, seemingly sourcing a local specialty. Four or five men were directing the workers, stacking large wooden boxes full of rough turquoise rough stones in the open space beside them.
Chen Lun lowered the brim of his hat and stood in the distance with a silver cane, silently watching this scene.
He threw a peep at the tophat merchant who had bought the rough stone, and in the next second, the panel showed the other party's message.
'Conspiracy Faction Sequence 8 - The Lockpicker, a member of the Rotoff family. ’
Chen Lun chuckled.
This is the information that he spent several hours obtaining after arriving in Huaqing Town.
The remnants of the Rotev family hid their identities here and turned into a small chamber of commerce, specializing in the purchase of cheap rough from the region...... It was claimed that they would cut and finely process the stone to make cheap ornaments and sell them to the outside world.
In fact, it was just a cover-up to avoid the pursuit of the Kang Parliament.
At the same time, it is also to avoid official liquidation.
The confrontation between the Black Knife Brotherhood and the Murder Club has come to an end, and they no longer have the capital to "live in the sun", but have become the "culprits" of many mysterious and harmful incidents caused by the former mutual aid.
It is completely different from the treatment of the club becoming a "council of peace" and sitting on one of the seven righteous churches, which also perfectly confirms what it means to "win and lose".
Everyone shouts and beats those who lose power, and that's no different.
Chen Lun had no sympathy for them, and even wanted to do it now.
But he held back.
A clever hunter who always has patience.
Another two hours passed.
A member of the Rotif family, who was in charge of purchasing the rough stones, handed over the handling to the hired men, and got into a carriage and left the side of the square.
Chen Lun changed his appearance, like an ordinary gentleman, following behind the carriage.
In the process, he found that the member of the Rotif family had left the carriage halfway through, used the ability of the [locksmith] to shuttle through the window of the carriage, and disappeared through the window of the house on the side of the road.
Chen Lun stopped, watched the carriage go away, and approached the inconspicuous house.
There were a lot of pedestrians around, but no one noticed it.
He was outside the wall of the house, and with a snap of his fingers, a small white snake made of his index finger crawled into the window and entered it. Through his five senses, Chen Lun shared the perception of the little white snake and saw the scene inside.
I saw that the top hat merchant went up to the second floor, arranged a prayer ceremony in a room, and immediately took out a black ceremonial dagger and opened the space.
It turned out that the real stronghold was hidden in some corner of the spirit world, similar to the cemetery where Mr. Biles used to belong...... The town is just an area where they are out and about. ’
Outside the wall dozens of meters apart, Chen Lun said secretly in his heart.
Just as the Tophat Merchant was about to step into the pitch-black space, the little white snake on the ground jumped up and silently burrowed into the back of the other's neck.
Unbeknownst to him, this man walked into his stronghold with the snake parasite.
Chen Lun smiled at the corner of his mouth, leaned against the wall, and silently monitored.
But at this moment, he felt a warning from his spiritual intuition that an unknown danger was approaching him......
"Huh?"
Chen Lun frowned slightly.
'The Rotev family still hides their strength? Wrong...... It shouldn't be them. ’
While observing through the parasitism of snakes, he took out his playing cards for divination and detected the source of danger.

Spiritual realm.
A hidden corner.
In a dark cavern.
Two men in black robes sat on wooden chairs, a bonfire was lit in front of them, and seven or eight members of the Middle Order family were standing beside them.
"Lord Thorin, Lord Messis......"
The Merchant in the Top Hat walked up to the two men and saluted respectfully.
"How's it going in this world?"
The middle-aged man on the left asked in a deep voice.
"There is no movement for the time being...... The Kang Council is busy holding meetings, gradually participating in the various parts of the empire, and the asylum unites with the wild transcendents to attack the Red Disaster Zone, and has no time to care about us, but the Sun Church has taken control of the entire Gem State, and now it is easy for them to find out. ”
The Topper Merchant took off his hat and said with his head down.
The old man on the right coughed twice, and after a moment of breath, commanded:
"It's better to be more cautious, the strength of the family has been exhausted in this battle for seats, and the only six remaining Sages have gone to the end of darkness, leaving us with our manpower to operate in this world...... In the event of an accident, the Rotev family will completely lose their source of information from the present world, and will be very passive. ”
"Yes, Mistress Messis."
The Tophat merchant replied solemnly.
"That's not right!"
The old man named Messis suddenly got up, his expression changed slightly.
The middle-aged man on the side, Thorin, also noticed the abnormality, and immediately raised his hand with a wave of his hand, and the dark shadow on the ground turned into a mire, instantly wrapping the top hat merchant and grabbing it like a big hand.
"Two adults?!"
The top hat merchant was horrified, wondering why the two high-ranking members of the family suddenly attacked him.
Thorin and Messis's faces sank.
Suddenly, the shadow mire rose in one place, turning into a sharp knife and stabbing the back of the top hat merchant's neck, and the suffocation of death suddenly caused the low-order transcendent of the Rotif family to scream.
"Ahh
But in the next second, with the hissing of the snakes, a group of white snakes bloomed from the back of his head, resisting the attack of the shadow sharp knife, and clanged.
"You damn shit! I don't even know if I'm parasitized by outsiders! ”
Thorin lashed.
The shadow knife suddenly burst open, turning into dozens of thin black threads, wrapping around the snakes, and immediately contracting. With a few creaks, the snakes were all cut off, and the Tophat Merchant fell to his knees with a thud, crawling and shivering.
He finally realized what a disaster he had gotten in!
However, no matter how he recalled, he couldn't remember when he was plotted by a strange transcendent, but this incident had happened, which meant that the family's secret stronghold was exposed!
"All members of the family, act immediately, that strange transcendent will not be too far away, find him and kill him! They must not be allowed to leak their information! ”
Old man Messis said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
The seven or eight of them on the side replied.
Rumble!
The house suddenly exploded, and ten shadows shuttled out from the portal, surrounding Chen Lun who was leaning against the wall.
The surrounding pedestrians screamed in horror and fled in all directions.
The guards patrolling the street couldn't help but feel excited, and when they saw this scene, they also retreated again and again, whistling in their mouths, thinking that they must report the matter immediately.
Transcendental!
This is the turmoil caused by the transcendental!
"Who are you?"
Thorin floated above Chen Lun's head and asked coldly.
Her smock hunted, and a shadow fell from it, dragging it to the ground like a curtain. Beside her, it was the old man Messis.
"The two crowns are the only remaining Sage incarnation of the Rotif family......"
Chen Lun raised his head slightly, with a polite smile on his face.
His gaze scanned around, and around the wall and at his side, stood eight members of the Rotif family, all of whom were among the Rank Transcendent. Judging from the list given to him by the Speaker, most of the combat power of these remnants is here.
"In the Lower Khammed Councillor, Tapia."
Chen Lun's face at the moment was transformed, and the other party did not recognize it, so he casually said the name of a competitor.
"Murder Club Flies ......"
Thorin looked down at him indifferently and waved his hand.
"Die!"
All the members of the Rotev family surrounded the area, and the shadows directly enveloped the area, as if darkness had fallen.
Chen Lun pretended to be a little panicked, and turned around and fled.
After narrowly avoiding the crackling of several shadow guillotines, he flew away from the collapsed and broken gravel of the wall, and ran wildly into the distance.
Thorin coughed twice, secretly said a damn injury, and the whole person disappeared in place, and escaped into the invisible pursuit of Chen Lun. Another Sage Incarnation, as well as the rest of the Rotif family, also chased after him.

The street side of Huaqing Town.
Ryan and Tapia took a leisurely stroll, and as they walked through an alley, the air fluctuated, and Kvas stepped out of it and chuckled at them.
"Things went well, I personally went to Fossil City and delivered the secret letter to the Church of the Sun...... It won't be long before the split of light under Terrence's crown will descend through the 'Obelisk of Daylight'. ”
As he spoke, he pulled out his cigarette, handed one to Tapia, and lit one himself and smoked it.
"It's already the afternoon of the second day of the assessment, and Jack, as an extraordinary person of the path of fate, has probably arrived in this town...... It's just that he probably couldn't have imagined that what was waiting for him was not just the two half-crippled Sage incarnations of the Rotif family. ”
Tapia swallowed the clouds and smiled.
Ms. Ryan raised her hand and fanned the smoke, frowned slightly, and complained:
"You two aren't gentlemen enough."
"I'm sorry."
Kvas and Tapia shrugged, but had no intention of snuffing out their cigarettes.
"Jack is going to have a good drink."
Seeing this, Ms. Ryan rolled her eyes and sighed calmly.
The two men next to him looked at each other and smiled.
Then.
All three of them sensed something, and they all turned their heads to look at the end of the street.
Countless pedestrians fled in panic, screaming as if something terrible was chasing after them.
"What's going on?"
Tapia frowned.
The other two shook their heads.
Soon, they saw a strange man running towards him, waving his hand and shouting:
"Councillor Kvass! Ryan Councillor! Come help me! ”
“?!”
The three of them didn't know each other at all, but the other called out their names.
Eight pitch-black shadows spread from the end, turning into human forms and surrounding them, and at the same time, two men with extremely powerful breaths appeared directly behind them, shooting out expressionlessly.
"The Parliament! Die, all of you! ”
An indifferent voice came.
The trio of Kvass, Ryan, and Tapia finally woke up from their stupor, their expressions contorted, and their extraordinary powers erupted.
The Rotev family!
Sage Incarnation!
And the strange man......
Jakes Peter!
They connected it all together in an instant and figured out what was going on.
"Damn Jack! Deliberately led the enemy to us! ”
Rumble!
The violent explosion was accompanied by a sonorous clang.
Tapia was the first to fly upside down, spitting blood from her mouth, and before she could turn into a shadow to avoid damage, she smashed several tables and chairs on the side of the road.
Kvass and Ryan were also not much better, being attacked by the Sage Incarnation, and they were also injured in the same face, and each fell to the ground.
The next second, the three of them heard the disguised Jack again, and shouted with great emotion:
"Councillor Kvass! Ryan Councillor! Brace yourself! We will definitely be able to eradicate the waste of the Rotev family! For the Parliament! For the sake of honor! Ollie gives! ”
Except for the last sentence, which they did not understand at all, the rest was clear.
This guy!
Deliberately fanning the fire here!
What a damn thing!
The three of them were almost so angry that they vomited blood, but the attack from the incarnation of the Sage didn't give them a respite at all, and they struck again!
