Chapter 153: The Trap

After slipping back into the underground corridor, he skillfully avoided the patrolling guards, and used the key to open the door to the right side of the foyer, and after seeing the still unconscious President of the Sea Dragon Society, Parker Sydney, and his women, he breathed a sigh of relief, and quietly locked the door, and then went straight to the door directly opposite the foyer.

He had calculated that it would take about 1 minute and 15 seconds for the guards to patrol the entire corridor and come back, so he still had plenty of time.

After carefully opening the gold-poured door with the key, he leaned sideways and felt inside.

As Parker Sydney said, there is still a foyer behind the door, and the floor next to the fireplace in front of it looks no different from the surroundings, but if you look closely, you can still find a completely incompatible gap.

Sean opened his eyes and looked around, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual here, he quietly lifted the floor, revealing a downward staircase inside.

"This is it!"

Sean took a deep breath, opened his pocket watch to confirm the time, and walked quietly.

The stairs were not long, that is, dozens of steps, and after he stepped smoothly on the ground, he suppressed his breath and all his thoughts, and walked to a hall lit with kerosene lamps.

Although the hall was not as opulent as the one from above, it was also delicate and chic, and he hid in a corner and looked around, just in time to see the two men at the table.

One of them, a short-haired man in a vest, was cutting the steak on his plate unhurriedly, and it was Karl Meiss, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Across from him sat a tall blonde man with an unfamiliar face, but presumably it was Parker Sydney's Hart, the Sequence 8 killer.

Since these two people are transcendental, and their gaze perception is far beyond that of ordinary people, his gaze is immediately closed, and he moves to Brother Tom, who seems to be unconscious in the iron cage on the table, and only pays attention to the two of them with his peripheral vision.

"Parker said that Carl had brought an extraordinary item this time, called Pandora's Box, hmm...... It must be sealed in a Mithril box, right? Where will it be placed? ”

Because of the "invisible hat" on his head that can block his spiritual light, Sean is not worried that he will be discovered, so he carefully searched the hall in front of him after deliberately avoiding the sight of the two.

However, the strange thing is that this hall is similar to the previous foyer, except for the more conventional arrangements such as dining tables, chairs, oil paintings, etc., there are no very conspicuous items, except for the iron cage that looks very strange on the dining table.

Something is wrong! If it's a trap, then why don't they hide it and wait for me to come in before making a surprise attack? Did they not know that I was in?

Sean thought about it and felt that only this possibility was the most probable, but he still felt that this was not quite in line with the style of the scheming Carl.

At this moment, Carl suddenly put down the knife and fork, looked at Hart and said with a smile: "Mr. Hart, today's steak tastes good, I guess it shouldn't have been purchased from ordinary channels, right?" ”

Hart, who was savoring the delicious foie gras, smiled, "Yes, this steak is produced in the Plains of Robdley, the kingdom's overseas colony, and it is the finest beef, and our two plates alone cost hundreds of gold coins. ”

"That's good." Carl picked up the red wine glass and shook it slightly, exclaiming, "It's just a pity that our friends can't enjoy this kind of food." ”

"yes!" Hart forked a piece of foie gras again and put it in his mouth, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that such a good ingredient is really good, but the taste has changed a little because of the addition of the antidote to the bitter scarlet." ”

"Who's to say it isn't!"

Carl put down his wine glass, picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth, and looked in the direction of the door: "Sean, since you're here, why don't you sit down and have a drink together?" ”

Sean, who was hiding near the door, had a bad premonition in his heart because of the other party's words, and at this moment, when he saw the smile of the other party looking here, he suddenly sighed in his heart and said secretly: "Not good!" ”

Almost reflexively, he was ready to turn around and retreat.

However, as soon as he got up, he felt his body go limp, and his head became dizzy.

"Damn, what's going on!?"

Sean was horrified, almost instinctively leaning against the wall so that he wouldn't fall to the ground if he couldn't hold it up.

At this moment, the sound of "click" locking and more and more footsteps suddenly sounded outside the gate behind him.

"Tsk, Sean, it's been a long time, don't you feel like your body is getting weaker and weaker?"

At this time, Carl and Hart both got up and walked to the door, one left and one right, their indifferent eyes and the grim smile looked extremely terrifying.

Sean was speechless at the moment, especially after finding that his vision was also beginning to blur, he suddenly knew that he was planted this time.

Although he still doesn't know what went wrong, when it comes to this crisis, he can only rely on another seal, the "slave owner's flute".

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and directly took off the "invisible hat", revealing his figure, and then silently recited the word "release" in Hebrew, and took out the "slave master's flute".

However, at this moment, Carl stopped and stopped Hart who was following on the side, and said with a smile: "No need to go any further, he also has a C-class seal 'Slave Master's Flute', the effect is that as long as the user blows the flute, he can control the surrounding transcendents for a short time."

Well...... According to tests by the Primordial Church, the transcendents of Sequence 9 have no resistance to hearing the sound of the flute; The Transcendent of Sequence 8 has no resistance within 10 meters, the Transcendent of Sequence 7 has no resistance within 5 meters, and the Transcendent of Sequence 6 has no resistance within 1 meter; Transcendents above Sequence 6 have no effect.

Of course, there are side effects of this flute, and every time you use it, this flute will absorb half of the user's spirit, no matter what sequence of transcendents you are in. ”

Hart was stunned for a moment, then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he took a few steps back.

Sean stayed completely in place, and couldn't help but roar in his heart: "How does he know? How did he know I had this seal? ”

"By the way, and just now, I was wearing an invisible hat, but he seemed to know that I was here, what the hell is going on?"

"Nope! That's impossible! If the slave owner's flute is still leaked, but the invisible hat was temporarily applied to the captain, and apart from the captain and me, there are only a few people guarding the secret hall......"

As soon as he thought of this, Sean's pupils immediately dilated, and he lost his voice: "There are your people in the secret hall!?" ”

"Tsk!" Karl Meiss grinned and said with a smirk: "Sean, this is what you said, not me." ”

Some people died, but not completely......
