The darkness was fading, and the first rays of morning light had already appeared on the horizon.

In the meager light, the silhouette of the alley's scenery came to light. The household garbage produced by nearby residents was randomly piled up in the alley, and a stream of black sewage with a pungent smell slowly flowed down from the cracks in the nearby wall, slowly flowing through most of the alley.

A member of the garrison, stripped of his gray uniform, collapsed in the corner of an alley, half covered in dirty water. When he looked closer, there was a knock on his head, which was visibly swollen, and a little blood was bleeding from a sharp cut on his arm.

The seemingly haphazard assignment of the security officer ended up pointing in the right direction. Here, Curt finds something unexpected - although the "thing" he finds is not by Geely, but by a staff member who is clearly still in the garrison group.

"Didn't this guy just sue that paranoid that you're looking for Yugi's handyman? Lizzie also noticed the identity of the staff member, "Look at this, someone must have infiltrated the ranks of the security officers." ”

Curt allowed himself to ignore Lizzie's contempt for the security officer, and approached the fallen staff member to try to make sure he was breathing with his hands. Fortunately, he was still alive, breathing faintly - but at least alive. The man who took his identity did not seem to have taken his life as well.

"That's not right...... Wait a minute, Lizzie. When you were at the scene, did you notice any strange spell structures? I didn't notice any traces of mana flowing. Neither by Jili nor the 'man' who spoke to me at the time, they didn't have a lot of magic gathered on them. ”

It is not difficult to change a person's appearance, and simple makeup can make a difference in one's appearance. But if you want to become another person unconsciously, you probably need to use the power of magic. Illusions or alterations, spells are more convenient and subtle than usual means.

After thinking about it for a while, Liqi gave another answer: "Actually, even if you don't use spells to create illusions, it's not impossible to change your appearance in an instant." There are many thaumaturgists or magicians who can achieve this effect without allowing people to change their magic. ”

Spells are a means of using knowledge and power according to certain principles, and although talent is valued, acquired learning is more important. It's different. Thaumaturgy or jutsu is not a power that can be acquired through guò learning. These must be acquired more mysterious, and the ways in which they are used are elusive - but the scope of thaumaturgy and sorcery is narrower than the variety of spells.

The innate ability to use the mind or will is called "shu", which can only be passed on to another person through life. Thaumaturgy that burns life force to gain mastery of unnatural abilities...... For a long time, many scholars have been studying the sources of these two capabilities, but have not yet received any reasonable answers.

No one ever said that a sorcerer could not carry a great sword, and certainly no one said that a person with thaumaturgy or a sorcerer could not learn spells. These people in several capacities are not necessarily good fighters. But they are undoubtedly brilliant scholars - no matter how hard they try. Nor has he been able to successfully decipher these "God-given abilities", the truth of which still exists in the darkness of the unknown.

"If our enemy is a group with a large number of mages, then it is not a surprise that there are one or two strange people among them," Lizzie said, "and it can be said that it is precisely because we don't know what they are made of, so be prepared for the other party to come up with a trick." ”

Curt was silent, he felt the need to sort things out.

First...... At what point did this staff member be replaced by someone else? and Yugiri, who suddenly disappeared. Will he have also been replaced—or worse, from the beginning? Talking to Curt to get Gilly is a fake.

If so, the reason why he disappeared is self-evident, because the "Field Supervisor Yu Jili" has now changed his identity and is hiding at the scene. The unidentified man was still at the scene, and it was not known what kind of plan he was preparing.

But now there are several groups of security officers who have been scattered and assigned to search for the missing Yujili, in other words, there will not be many people in each group in the current shortage of manpower.

Assuming that many of the "True Eyes" personnel are hidden in the nearby slums, then which of the assigned security officers are undoubtedly in danger. The scattered forces are at risk of being attacked by the other side at any time, and those who come back cannot be sure of their identity.

"I'm not sure how many people are infiltrating, but I think they're planning to replace the guards little by little, and then take the opportunity to create chaos. Curt thought for a while, he didn't know what the other party's true purpose was, "The current arrangement is very beneficial to them." ”

The first priority of strategy is intelligence, and under the premise of unequal intelligence, the side with more information has almost a decisive advantage. The security officer had really made the worst judgment possible, and now whether or not Curt brought his present back, he was going to face a situation that couldn't have been worse.

If the officers are not told that there is a conspiracy brewing against them, then the plan of the "True Eye" will go ahead as they wish. Although they can't see the full picture of this conspiracy yet, judging by their recent appearance, this conspiracy will definitely make big news.

On the other hand, bringing the current staff back to the scene will undoubtedly illuminate the commotion of everyone present, and everyone must be worried about whether their companions are enemies. It was the team spirit that supported them to continue working in a highly fatigued state, and to sing this play, it would be out of control at that time.

It was a real dilemma, and the man who came up with the plan really got Curt into trouble. He is now suing the security officers, but neither is he suing them - even if the lesser of two evils is adopted, the after-effects have obviously been taken into account by the other side.

Of course, even if he weighed the pros and cons and felt that bringing this staff member back would cause more trouble, Curt could not leave him on the ground in the corner of the alley. Voices were already ringing in the surrounding slums, and it wasn't long before crowds began to gather.

It can't be delayed any longer...... Let's transport him to a nearby safe place and wake him up, and then think about asking him how he was knocked unconscious in the alley.

Thinking so, Curt picked up the man who had fainted to the ground. Compared to the tall front-line security officers, the staff in charge of auxiliary work were much thinner, and Curt carried him as easily as carrying a sack of cotton.

Bang Bang -

Just as Curt was about to leave this remote alley with the staff, a slight footstep suddenly sounded at the entrance of the alley behind him. A small dark shadow was rushing towards Curt with swift steps along the darkness beneath the wall, clutching a piece of metal that reflected the morning light in his hand.

Curt, who was holding the staff with both hands, was carrying the weight of a man, and was in a position of opening the door in front of his chest. Seeing that the smiling black shadow wanted to rush into his arms, he took half a step back without saying a word, and then swept his legs out of the trajectory of the black shadow with the offset center of gravity.

Bang!

The sweeping leg infused with all his strength accurately hit the short figure rushing over, but Curt felt as if his toes had kicked a thick layer of cotton, and he didn't know where he had hit. The little man who rushed over screamed and fell out in the opposite direction.

"Pulling out a knife and stabbing someone without saying a word is really an excessive way to greet people. Curt adjusted his center of gravity to stand firmly, and then looked at the little man holding his stomach half-jokingly, "Someone said that 'courtesy is still exchanged', so as a gift in return, I will give you a kick." ”

Kirte looked at the little man he kicked away as if he were a teenager - no, it might be more appropriate to say that he was a child. His height was only as high as Curt's waist, and his thin body was like a hemp rod in the wind, especially the thin hands and feet, which were almost the same as Lizzie's, and there were several patches on the tattered clothes on his body...... At first glance, it looks like a child born and raised in a slum.

But it was unlikely that the children in the slums would rush over and attack with a knife without saying a word, and Curt glanced at the piece of metal that was still clinging to him. It was a twisted serpentine dagger, with a few crude ancient characters carved into its silver blade, and a wave of magic emanating from the blade.

Apparently, the serpentine dagger was a special artifact infused with magical power. Even though it looked rather shoddy and unfashionable, it was still a magical artifact - a dagger that a slum kid could not afford.

Looking at the dwarf assassin disguised as a teenager in the slums, the corners of Curt's mouth couldn't help but hook up a wry, mocking smile - could he have been targeted?

This is not an unexpected result, everyone present and the garrison standing on the united front may be targeted by the members of the "True Eye", especially Curt, who is now acting alone, attacking him will not attract the attention of those around him, and is undoubtedly the most suitable person to be targeted.

It's a pity that he still picked the wrong object.

The small Assassin seemed to know that he had found the wrong target, and that he should not fight, so he took two steps back and immediately turned and fled. Curt was stunned for a moment, and unhurriedly followed the other party who began to flee with the staff who were still unconscious on his back. (To be continued!)
