Chapter 172: Aleister's True Accomplice

The Moriarty Museum, less than a kilometre from the Red Queens Inspectorate.

This is so that in the event of a robbery or theft at the museum, the Inspectorate can be the first to arrive. And such a close distance can also make it convenient for Ivus to pick up and drop off Shadow Fiend.

Ivas sat firmly in the chair in the office, drinking tea and reading the newspaper, quietly waiting for the good news to come.

It wasn't until Lily quietly emerged from the shadows behind him that he asked softly, "Did you find it?" ”

"I found it this time."

Lily also whispered, "It's here." ”

She was a little surprised—Ivas knew the secret of such an underground vault!

Ivus knew why Lily was surprised, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Of course he does.

Ivas didn't just know the exact location of the Inspectorate's underground vaults...... And he knew the whole four in one go.

The Shadow of Avalon version is the first version of the main story that he played by himself after skipping the early main story. Back in Avalon, it's all about running around the map - what was a no-go area in Avalon is now a secret organization, a base for the Resistance, or simply a copy.

At that time, the main tasks of various were to run around in one restricted area after another to spread messages to different organizations.

Of course, what Ivus knew was the location of the mechanism. Now that the Inspectorate has not been abandoned, it will certainly not work to go in and press the agency in the light - but it is no problem to go backwards from the ventilation duct.

Lily can turn into shadows, and Shadow Fiend can turn into liquids that flow freely. Before, Shadow Fiend couldn't leave Ivus's side, but now with Lily's "mother and child router", he can take Shadow Fiend's signal to a distance.

So they followed the ventilation duct given by Ivus, and in turn into the closed prison cell.

Ivus didn't know exactly where the two men would be kept, but he didn't have to think about it—it must have been one of the four underground chambers.

Anyway, there are only four in total, and the exhaustive method can also be cited.

When nothing happens in the underground vault, that's their only option. The more important the prisoner, the more he must follow the rules when he is imprisoned, and he must follow the rules completely, and only when something happens can he have a pot to lose. That would only say that the enemy is too strong, not the fault of their negligence.

The Glass Island is a jutting peninsula surrounded by the sea on almost three sides. Not counting the surrounding municipalities, there are only four districts in the core area – from the inland area in the northwest to the sea in the southeast, which are the largest metropolitan area, the Red Queen, the White Queen, and the second largest Lloyd's district.

The four underground chambers for important criminals are two in the Red Queens, one in the White Queens, and one in the Metropolitan. Considering the level of law and order in Lloyd's, there is no such thing in Lloyd's.

The Bishop's home is in the Red Queen's district, so Ivas and Lily plan to start looking closer.

The first one was not found, there was no Lloyd's and no Boca in it. It was someone Lily didn't know, so she quietly left again.

They were lucky, and the second one was found.

In order to prevent the ability to take pictures, Ivast demanded that the Shadow Fiend be completely wrapped in Lily.

The shadow demon can understand it at one point, and he has specially created a different figure. It was a figure of Lily who was in better shape, with more defined muscles in her abdomen and arms—it was said to be that of Miss Assassin.

"Did you leave the ring?" Ivus asked with a sigh of relief.

"Well, I dropped the ring."

Lily nodded.

Noble red rings are always a curse to leave on the body, but discarding them is more likely to expose the problem. And now is the right time –

President Lloyd was devoured by the Shadow Demon, leaving no proof of existence at all. If he doesn't leave anything behind, people might think that he escaped from prison.

But the ring of the Noble Red Society was so bright that it was on the bed...... That would be a provocation. It can completely direct the attention of the Inspectorate to the noble red.

"That's right, young master."

Lily said with some trepidation, "He left his last words before he died, and I asked the Shadow Fiend to eat them. ”

Hearing this, Ivas was slightly stunned.

He asked, "What's the content?" ”

"He seems to have mistaken Shadow Fiend's voice for mine," Lily said, "I can't see clearly, but Shadow Fiend said...... He wrote 'Alesse', 'Woman', 'Noble Red'.

"Although the content is wrong...... But I think if Aleister was really a woman from the noble red, she would be nervous to erase the evidence when she saw this...... Am I doing the right thing, young master? ”

Hearing this, Ivus breathed a sigh of relief.

"You didn't do it right – but because of it, you did it right," he laughed.

"A high-ranking lawyer on the path of authoritarianism, able to retrace the last actions of the deceased. Although you erased the scarlet letters, they could retrieve them from his backtracks.

"But obviously, as Aleister, he shouldn't have known this knowledge. So it's only natural that he'll erase this thing. ”

This is a clumsy coincidence.

"Looks like I'm ready to return," Ivas praised, "thanks to you, Lily. You've completely separated me from Aleister. ”

And in this case, it can also explain why Ivas is safe and sound - he already has a legendary love history rumor, and now it is only a matter of adding to it.

Of course, this is an interpretation in the face of the folk. People prefer to listen to interesting news rather than real news. So Ivorste prepared something that suited their tastes and that they would prefer to listen to...... At most, it is the victim of his own reputation.

But on the other hand, he was not bad for being killed this time or twice.

In the face of official interrogation, Ivas also prepared another set of excuses - the official will not say, involving extraordinary secret information.

However, Lily was still a little worried: "This time President Lloyd was killed...... Will the Inspectorate step up its investigation? Wouldn't it be better for us to hide a little more? ”

"—No."

Ivas shook his head: "It's better to say that it is most reasonable for me to return at this time. Because only at this time, the Shadow Demon will definitely not be guarding me, and I will have the possibility of escaping.

"If it's a few more days, it won't be natural."

- Not to mention, the Inspectorate doesn't really care so much whether President Lloyd is alive or not.

Ivas said in his heart.

He knew that Tommy Lloyd must have had a lot of tricks.

But the giant certainly didn't know that that if that kind of thing was of any use, it would not be useless.

If there are only a few or a dozen knights in question in Avalon, then his information is indeed valuable...... But on the contrary, there are only a dozen knights who are completely fine.

Then his intelligence is actually just a handle for political struggle.

Isn't it easy to get the handle?

That's what the Inspectorate does.

In fact, Lloyd's had no formal knightly education at all, and although he inherited Lloyd's name, he knew nothing about the rules and secrets of Avalon's upper echelons - because Ivas knew that Lloyd's current generation was actually a "cheater".

He was not qualified to be Lloyd's at all, but forcibly took Lloyd's name after killing the real heir, Rovita.

The proof is ...... Tommy has no talent for getting into the book at all.

His death has nothing to do with the main line. Even outside of the player's field of vision. Instead, it was the gray-green lady who killed him who entered Ben.

As a Lloyd, he did not leave any adopted son of his own.

Because he has no affection for humans, he wants to adopt a half-blood giant like himself as an adopted son. But at the same time, he is worried that the other party will kill himself like he killed his father. In his opinion, giants are indeed capable of such things.

In other words, Lloyd's inheritance was cut off with him.

And Tommy's sister, Miss Rovita, who was once killed by him, also returned in the Shadow of Avalon version and became the boss of the main story. She died with a grudge and was branded as a great sin by the Fallen Heavens, and her remaining memories and soul turned into a dream demon.

The former Holy Sword was sealed by the half-dream demon Merlin, and in order to break the seal, another dream demon must be found. But Dream Demons are quite rare...... The only thing Ivas could remember was Rovita.

After defeating her, she had stated that Bishop Mathers had come to her not long ago.

Sooner or later, Evas will have to reforge the Holy Sword. There is also a light-attribute high-level illusion hidden in the holy sword.

At that point, finding Rovita became a ritual necessity. And killing Tommy is also one of the three conditions she gives in the future to help the protagonist's team. The reason why Ivas knew that Tommy was dead a long time ago was that he couldn't find Tommy in this quest chain. Because Tommy has long since been killed by Grey Green.

The Inspectorate will hold Lloyd's in custody, according to Ewass...... It's actually fishing.

As Ivas had told Sherlock before, there were times when the threat was more powerful than eating the child - as long as they couldn't reach Lloyd, Lloyd's presence would continue to put pressure on them.

The value of the bait that Lao cooperated with was definitely much greater than the value of the goods in his stomach. The noble red must want to kill him, and there are some knights who can't resist it who want to kill him. That's why the Inspectorate detained him in a completely safe secret room.

The only miscalculation of the Inspectorate was that they didn't expect anyone to be more familiar with the secret room than they did.

But on the flip side, that's exactly what it is...... It really doesn't make a difference whether Lloyd's is alive or dead. Because no one can be sure that he is dead...... So as long as the news that he was killed by Aleister is not leaked, Tommy is equivalent to being alive.

Therefore, the Inspectorate will definitely not search for Alestal in a big way. Instead, the information about Aleister's killing of Tommy must be kept completely secret, and most of the monitors will not know that Tommy is dead - how could he be dead when he is still "producing information"?

They can only target the Noble Red. The ring is used as evidence that the Noble Red Society storms the Inspectorate and tries to rescue Tommy Lloyd. And the result, of course, is failure - it's because of the other party's failure that they can get this ring as proof of identity, isn't it?

From this point of view, the real accomplice that Ivus chose for Aleister was neither Shadow Fiend nor Lily.

Not even Boca and Noble Red......

It's the Inspectorate itself.

— or rather, the Great Guardian of Avalon.

Just a meal, come back and write the second chapter!
