Volume 1 The Road to Rise Chapter 069 The Mysterious Anna
Sherlock and Anna scoffed at the investigators' analysis, but accepted it on their faces.
They all want to send the strong group in front of them away as soon as possible to deal with their own personal affairs.
Fortunately, after analyzing the conclusion that Sig Holmes was also a victim, the Strong Group decided to leave.
Out of Sherlock Holmes Manor, one of the golden knights leading the team spoke.
"Robin, just let them go? The two men were clearly hiding something. β
"George, this is the Intramus. Without sufficient evidence, we are not even qualified to search their home. β
"But they obviously hide a lot of things."
"Oh, I know that, it's all the of the aristocratic circles. When you were investigating, I asked my subordinates a little gossip and analyzed that what they wanted to hide was just a little scandal. It has little to do with monsters. β
"Huh? There's gossip, and you don't tell me! β
"Want to hear it? Invite me to drink after the next duty. β
"No problem!"
With the departure of the strong investigation team, the style of painting in the manor changed suddenly.
Sherlock overbearingly instructed the butler to arrange for Fein and the others to rest, and then let the subordinates collect the body of the deceased.
These guards belong to Viscount Kate's people, and the Sherlock Holmes family has no right to dispose of them at will, they need to be placed, and after the city gate is opened tomorrow, let Knight Finn bring them back.
Facing Sherlock, who had an indifferent and domineering expression, the butler obeyed the order after discovering that the lady had no intention of stopping him.
"You come with me!"
Sherlock threw a cold word at Anna and strode towards his yard.
Anna's eyes flickered, and she suppressed the irritability in her heart, and decided to see what tricks this little ghost was trying to do.
When Anna entered Sherlock's room, Sherlock casually closed the door.
Anna, who was in an irritable mood, was too lazy to accompany Sherlock to act, and immediately asked: "What do you want, hurry up, I'm in a hurry." β
Bang!
A manic Sherlock pinned Anna against the door.
"Say! What the hell are you playing tricks, between my father and you, what the hell is going on! Also, what did you do to me, and why was I so out of control before! β
Looking at the angry Sherlock in the light, Anna smiled disdainfully.
"Don't you know best what happened to me and your father! Isn't what you do every night learning from your father? Or do you want to do it again now? β
Anna's defiant words made Sherlock's eyes bloodshot.
He roared in a suppressed tone: "Shut up for me! Don't talk about this uselessness! What secrets are you hiding? Is your uncle's disappearance related to you?
Is that little white face in your yard related to your father's disappearance? Or, the monster that suddenly appeared was actually brought by that little white face! β
Looking at Sherlock, who was not affected by herself in the slightest, Anna finally put away the frivolous attitude on her face.
"Sherlock Holmes, you know what you're talking about! Don't think that by putting the blame on me, you can get the Holmes family out of the way!
I was taking in a man, but what is this! I'm a normal woman, is it wrong for me to like handsome, young, strong and powerful men? Do you have to compromise and play with you every day with toothpicks!
I, Anna, have had enough of it for a place to stay! I've been toyed with by three of your Sherlock Holmes men, but you're not satisfied. What the hell do you want!
If something happens, you want me to be a woman to take the blame? I don't know what the hell is going on with your Sherlock Holmes family, there is so much! But the crime of raising monsters, I, a woman who only knows how to sell hue, can't afford it!
Don't you want to throw dirty water on me! Don't even think about throwing dirty water on the man I brought back! Because that person can't and won't have anything to do with monsters!
You better reflect on it, maybe that monster was brought back by your father to get revenge on me! Maybe he's a monster himself! β
Anna angrily pushed the emaciated Sherlock away, ignoring the shock on his face, opened the door and left.
Anna's words hit Sherlock hard.
It was not Anna's slander of the Sherlock Holmes family, but Anna's sentence of "playing with toothpicks" that made Sherlock feel trampled on from dignity!
"Damn it! Damn it! You all deserve to die! β
Sherlock pounded the wall in a furious manner, his expression grim.
He didn't notice that Anna's fingers had quietly popped a black powder into the room before leaving.
Sherlock inadvertently sucks in the powder that floats in the air, and then his emotions go out of control.
After leaving Sherlock's yard, Anna avoided the people of the manor and went to a room in the backyard that was locked with various locks.
She unlocked the door and locked the room.
I lit the oil lamp, fumbled around the corner of the room, found a mechanism, and pulled it hard.
"Clang, clang."
After a crack, a pitch-black staircase appeared on the ground.
Anna walked down the stairs with an oil lamp and pulled down the mechanism in the staircase to restore the ground.
In this way, even if someone breaks into the house, they will not be able to find anything strange inside.
After walking up the circular staircase for nearly three minutes, Anna came to a brightly lit basement.
The basement is large, larger than the yard above ground.
There are many tables and utensils in the basement, and at first glance it looks like you have entered the laboratory of some master alchemist.
There are a lot of things in the basement, but they are not cluttered.
Anna walked briskly to the bookshelf by the wall in the deepest part of the basement, found the third shelf, pulled out the thirteenth book placed on the third floor, and picked up the thirteenth book in her left hand.
"Crunchβ"
With a heavy sliding sound, a stone door opened on the wall next to the bookshelf, revealing another chamber.
Anna didn't hesitate and plunged into the secret room.
Entering the secret room, Anna hurriedly put down the oil lamp in her hand and lit several oil lamps on the wall of the secret room to illuminate the secret room.
Anna then went to a stone platform in the middle of the chamber and pulled back the black cloth covering it.
A transparent crystal ball with a pitch-black body appeared on the stone platform.
Yes, it's pitch black all over, and you can see that it's transparent.
It's such a contradictory and weird feeling, but it's presented on the crystal ball in front of you.
Anna wasn't surprised at all by the weirdness of the crystal ball in front of her.
After all, when you've owned something like this for years, you don't care at all.
Anna sat cross-legged in front of the stone platform, her palms hanging above the crystal ball, and her mouth was full of words.
"Great Witch Ancestor, please follow the will of my heart and present what I think before my eyes!"
As Anna's words ended, the black gas in the pitch-black crystal ball continued to churn, and then, a strong black light was emitted, and it flew violently from the crystal ball, enveloping the entire room.
The secret room, lit with several oil lamps, instantly turned into darkness.
But the strange thing is that the crystal ball in front of Anna has turned into a white shimmer, transparent and crystalline.
An image flew out of the crystal ball and was projected into the dark space.
Anna looked at the image projected in front of her, and her face was very ugly.
In a forest, a giant spider is frantically laying eggs, and two figures are running and turning to fight back.
Behind the two of them, a group of small spiders the size of fists were frantically chasing the two who were fleeing.
In the spider team chasing the two, the little spider in front of them would jump up from time to time and pounce on the two people in front of them, and before they landed, they suddenly turned into a ball of fire and exploded.
Even if she can't hear the sound and only sees the picture, Anna can imagine how "lively" the scene was!
The self-detonating demon spider is not the demon spider itself, but its egg-laying ability and the hatched cubs!
Each spider has the ability to self-detonate, and under the control of the mother spider, they will take a self-killing attack to kill the enemy.
As long as it gets close to the target, the little spider will not hesitate to detonate the energy in its body, sacrificing its life to attack the enemy, causing explosive damage.
The larger the spider, the more powerful the explosion will be.
And that's not even the scariest of all.
What's even more terrifying is that the mother spider can promote its evolution by devouring her own cubs.
Become an even larger self-exploding spider.
When its size evolved to 100 meters, in the city, even a saint-level powerhouse would not dare to make a move on it!
Once the female spider is despaired, the female spider will not hesitate to choose to self-destruct.
The power of a 100-meter-sized female spider to explode can destroy all buildings and creatures within a five-mile radius!
Except for the existence above the Holy Level, no one can survive the explosion!
Such dangerous creatures were rare even in ancient times.
It was only in the final battle of the world against witches that the mad witches summoned dozens of these spiders in order to die together.
As a result, it naturally shook the whole world.
Countless civilizations have become historical relics.
Anna saw the female spider in the image, ready to devour her cubs, and felt a chill in her heart.
She didn't want the destruction of the city!
She just wants to be the most powerful woman in England City and even in Lionheart!
"Damn, I've lost my mind and believed that Sally, a stupid woman, can control this power! Let her fuse with the self-detonating demon spider! β
"This idiot, shouldn't he have been devoured by the demon spider and completely reduced to a monster!"
"What should I do! I have to stop it, I can't let it ruin England, I don't want to die! β
Anna anxiously pondered what to do.
It's definitely too late to rush to the scene now.
If Sally is unconscious, even if she arrives, she won't be able to stop the mother spider from going berserk.
Its existence itself was created for the purpose of killing.
"That's right, that thing! That thing might find a solution! β
Anna unbuttoned her coat and pulled a shabby piece of silk from her corset.
It was the same part she fought off the [Ripper] last time.
"There must be a solution! You've given me so much treasure, I can't watch that monster destroy everything I have! β
Anna put the worn-out silk over the glowing crystal ball and prayed aloud.
"Great Patriarch, please guide your followers to find a way out of their predicament!"
