Could it have something to do with that 'medium'?

When the thought popped into Eli's mind, it began to grow uncontrollably like a weed—almost instinctively, and the spy had in mind the image of the 'medium guiding the souls of the dead to the place of eternal resting'.

The movement of that fireworks was just too big.

As long as you are not blind or deaf, you know what is going on.

And well-informed people know what happened next.

As a spy, Eli is naturally well-informed.

Therefore, the first guess came out -

The 'bandaged swordsman' in front of him couldn't have flowed out when the 'spirit medium guided the souls to the place of eternal rest', right?

But right away, the second guess followed -

The 'Bandaged Swordsman' appeared in the ruins of the back street of Mule Street, and the appearance just now was obviously looking for and recalling something, which should be related to the 'Sanke family'.

Coincidentally, that 'psychic medium' solved the murder case of the 'Sanke family' 20 years ago.

Is there any relationship between the two?

No!

There's definitely something to do with the two!

Eli hesitated for less than a second before he became incredibly sure.

Then the spy hesitated again.

This hesitation, of course, is not to overturn the previous speculation.

Rather, the other side is thinking about how to get the benefit of it.

But in the end, until the 'Bandaged Swordsman' left, Eli didn't say anything, and there was a trace of gratitude to the 'Bandaged Swordsman'.

It's more because......

Can't!

I really don't dare!

Eli isn't much of a daredevil.

Otherwise, he would not have directly chosen to stop and become a spy of the 'Count Bate' after seeing the danger of the 'mysterious side'.

Eli would never risk anything until he was sure what was going on with the Bandaged Swordsman - he didn't really swear allegiance to the Earl of Beth when he became a spy for the Earl.

It's just that the earl's offer is high enough.

Loyal?

Inexistent.

And, even if it exists, what is it compared to being alive?

Alas!

Eli let out a sigh filled with emotion.

He knew it looked like he had missed another opportunity.

However, as long as he is alive, the spy is happy enough.

What's more, the news of the 'Bandage Swordsman' was enough for him to receive enough bounty.

'A copy from Count Bate.

Sell a copy to the 'Cloak Society'.

Those nobles of South Los should also be interested.

If I come back a few more times, maybe I can retire early! ’

After a slight calculation of his gains, the spy immediately smiled.

Then, the spy turned and left.

But......

As soon as he left the back street of Mule Street, the spy stopped, and ducked into the shadows on the side, looking at the ruins behind him.

It took more than ten minutes to confirm that no one had shown up, and the spy breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sure enough, I'm too careful!

How can there be so many intrigues! ”

The spy said, shaking his pants, and a projectile fell from his 'leg', and at the same time, a pig brisket filled with red liquid fell out of his trouser leg.

The liquid is based on pig blood, with some herbs added to make it look very much like human blood.

The moment he followed the other two spies and saw the 'bandaged swordsman', Eli instantly imagined several possible scenarios and was fully prepared - he knew all too well what their spies were, and the practice of selling goods like his was a model of benevolence.

Most of the guys eat black and stab in the back.

Eli was stabbed in the lower abdomen by his so-called companion on his first mission as a spy.

If it weren't for his screams, which attracted the attention of the mission target at the time, and gave the so-called companion a shot, he would have been cold.

Therefore, when he noticed the other two spies, Eli deliberately gave up the scroll and crossbow he was carrying, and instead took out a short sword.

All he has to do is get himself out of the 'game' first.

However, the swiftness of the 'Bandage Swordsman' reaction was beyond his expectations.

But none of that matters.

All he wants now is a bounty.

With such a thought in his heart, a touch of greed appeared on his face, and Eli walked in quickly.

But a few minutes later, the spy crept back again.

Again, the other party confirmed the surrounding situation.

After confirming that nothing had changed, the spy left again.

And this time, Eli really left.

In the shadows, Arthur looked at the other man's distant back, and there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes—a simple appreciation for a cautious enough person to another cautious person.

Arthur didn't expect that just a 'small layout' would meet a cautious and acting spy like Eli.

But Eli's appearance did not worry Arthur.

Arthur doesn't worry about his little layout failing.

On the contrary, Eli's appearance made Arthur understand that his layout had a higher success rate.

Because, Arthur believes that the news brought by a cautious person like Eli will definitely be trusted by more people - Eli's behavior pattern is destined for this spy to be in his 'circle' and has a considerable reputation.

To put it simply, as long as you can hide it from Eli!

So......

Under the inertia of thinking, the reputation that the other party has accumulated over time will become a kind of help that cannot be ignored!

As for how to hide from Eli?

Very simple.

As long as he is more cautious and acting than Eli.

It just so happens that Arthur has all of them.

Turning back and glancing at the corpses of the two spies in the ruins of the back street of Mule Street, Arthur's eyes flashed with a little pity, just now the 'Bandage Swordsman' successfully slashed out the 'Evil Slash', but the 'Evil Slash' actually burned the palm of the 'Bandage Swordsman'.

Of course, this is absolutely not an indication of what kind of demon he is.

It also has nothing to do with the 'bandaged swordsman' and William.

It should be the problem of [Corpse Alchemy] itself.

'I didn't expect the [Corpse Alchemy] to be evil, so it should be even more important for me, a young, upright, simple and kind 'spirit medium', to use it!"

Let me, the user, take you with me, and sprinkle love and justice all over the world! ’

Arthur thought so, quickened his pace, and returned to 2 Kirk Street.

And just an hour after Arthur returned to 2 Kirk Street, three pieces of news began to go viral. Credos is able to guide souls to the Land of Eternal Resting', 'Arthur Credos was injured for guiding souls to the Land of Eternal Resting', and 'Arthur released a demon from the Land of Eternal Resting'.

After Arthur, who had Sini watching Garcia, got the news, he gently rubbed Pendragon's cat's head, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly—

'Next, it's the last one!' ’
