Chapter 490: The Fish That Slipped Through the Net
Stealthily infiltrating the villa, Ferrin passed by several villa servants, and finally went up the stairs to the second floor of the villa, where he came to a room.
According to the scan, the red dot is located in this room.
Sticking his ear to the door, Ferrin listened to the movement in the room.
After reaching transcendence, his hearing became extremely strong, and it was no worse than that of ordinary mystics with corresponding extraordinary abilities.
"There's no movement in there, there should be no one."
With a twist of the handle, Ferrin gently pushed the door open and entered the room, then gently closed the door.
As he judged, there was no one in the room, it was a room similar to a study, with bookshelves, desks, etc. in the room.
In addition, there is a metal safe in the room, and according to the scan, the red dot is located in this safe.
"It's a curse."
Ferrin had a judgment in his mind.
Weirdness had been ruled out before, leaving only two possibilities: cultists and cursed things.
It is impossible for a cultist to hide in a safe, so it can only be a curse.
"It's locked in a safe, and I can't open it, so I don't know if I'll be able to get the mystery point."
Felin approached the safe, wondering if he could get the mystery point just like that.
If you can get it, it's best, if you can't get it, you can only give up.
He doesn't know how to open the lock, and if he violently breaks the safe, he can do it, but he can't do it.
Sneaking in is already quite a violation, and it would not be good if you also destroyed someone else's safe and caused financial losses to the owner of the villa.
"Contact mystery, mystery point plus 157."
As he approached the safe, the text appeared and disappeared quickly in front of Fei Lin's eyes, and the acquisition of 157 mystery points indicated that this was a Type 4 cursed thing.
"Can be obtained through a safe."
Fei Lin was a little happy that he didn't destroy the safe, but he did get a mystery point, which he was happy to see.
】
"It shouldn't have been possible before, but it seems that after the third unblocking, the function of the panel has been strengthened to a certain extent."
Felin remembered that in the past, it was difficult to obtain the mystery point of a cursed object if it was contained in an item.
Now you can get the mystery point of the cursed thing in the safe through the thick safe, which means that after the panel is unlocked three times, the ability to sense the "object" that can provide the mystery point has been enhanced.
Quietly exiting the study and leaving the villa, Ferrin moved in the direction of the other red dot.
A few minutes later, he appeared outside of another villa, where another red dot was also located.
This is not too surprising, the tulip district where Villa Harorwin is located is also known as the aristocratic district, and it is inhabited by either high-ranking nobles or extremely wealthy families.
And the place where such a person lives is naturally a villa, and it is impossible to have a "simple" single-family house.
"It's a curse this time, too?"
Stealth, Ferrin walked into the villa and walked towards the red dot on the scan.
Cursed things are difficult for ordinary people to obtain, but for nobles or wealthy people, it is not difficult to get them.
Even, they prefer alchemy items with no side effects to cursed things.
Even if it is a cursed thing, he will choose the kind of cursed thing with minimal side effects, if his guess is correct, the cursed thing he encountered before should be a cursed thing with minimal side effects.
"It's not a curse, no, it's not sure yet!"
Soon, Ferrin approached the red dot.
He discovered that the red dot was not a curse, but a middle-aged man sitting on a sofa.
Unlike the previous red dots, this time the red dots don't come out of the safe, but from a person.
However, this does not mean that this is a cultist, because there is also the possibility that the other party has a curse on him.
"Contact the mystery, the mystery point plus 141."
In a state of invisibility, Fei Lin approached the middle-aged man, and the words in front of him appeared quickly and disappeared quickly.
The mysterious point of 141 points indicates that the middle-aged man in front of him is either holding a Type 4 curse or is a high-ring cultist.
"How do you know for sure?"
Fei Lin looked at the middle-aged man, but it was obvious that it was impossible to tell whether the middle-aged man was a cultist or not based on the naked eye.
"You can try to identify it by smell."
Felin came up with the idea of a way to tell by smell.
The cultists of some cult organizations will have a smell that is very different from ordinary people, such as the followers of the evil god Lord of the Mist and the followers of the cult organization Natural Disaster.
Through this unique smell, it is possible to distinguish whether a person is a cultist or not.
"Not necessarily accurate."
Distinguishing by smell is not necessarily accurate.
Because the cultists of some cult organizations do not have a unique smell, they cannot be distinguished by smell.
Moreover, whether through extraordinary abilities or through certain secret medicines, it is possible to temporarily change the smell.
"Try it first."
Fei Lin uses the olfactory enhancement of the enhanced gem that has been downgraded to Type 4 to strengthen his sense of smell.
The Necklace of Concealment has now been downgraded to Type 3, and if you use extraordinary abilities other than physical enhancement, the invisibility will be broken.
However, the enhancement of the enhancement gem is the enhancement of the physical body, and it will not break this stealth.
With the use of the enhanced gem's sense of smell intensification, Fei Lin's sense of smell suddenly increased greatly, and with this enhanced sense of smell, he smelled the scent of the middle-aged man's body.
For a moment, Fei Lin's eyes showed a cold color, and he looked at the middle-aged man coldly.
The Type 4 Enhancement Gem is comparable to the Twelve Rings Mystic Magician's extraordinary ability to use the sense of smell when it is used to enhance the sense of smell, which is already the strongest ability to smell under the extraordinary.
Although the middle-aged man somehow concealed his own smell, he still couldn't deceive his powerful sense of smell.
This is a cultist, and a cultist he has met before.
If his guess was correct, the middle-aged man was probably one of the cultists who had besieged the palace and managed to escape.
With the help of the scanning of the panel, I didn't expect to find such a fish that slipped through the net.
"Lifted."
Fei Lin lifted the hidden necklace and appeared in front of the middle-aged man.
"Are you...... Who? Do you want to do ...... What? ”
Seeing Fei Lin, who suddenly appeared, there was a momentary horror in the middle-aged man's eyes, as if he recognized Fei Lin's identity.
But immediately he became panicked again, and his voice was very frightened.
If it weren't for the fact that Fei Lin had been paying attention to the middle-aged man, he would definitely not have been able to detect this change in expression.
