Chapter 46 One plus one is greater than two

As he walked through the living room, Klein's inspiration was touched, and he felt that invisible eyes swept over him out of nowhere.

He pretended not to find anything, and entered the living room in front of him, examined the surroundings, and found a spot not far from the main seat, but not too close.

And the moment he passed through the door, all gaze vanished, gone.

If it weren't for the triple seal isolation of the "resentful soul", most of them would have been detected just now...... Mr. X isn't as bold and crazy as he appears...... Crane sat down and tugged at his hood, letting his face hide deeper in the shadows.

After ten minutes or so, when the party members were almost all together, Mr. X, wearing a brass mask, came to the door without any movement, stepped inside, and walked to the main seat.

He was wearing a black classical robe and a peaked magician's hat, and his momentum was restrained when he walked, but it made everyone present unconsciously lower their heads.

After turning around and sitting down slowly, Mr. X looked around and said in a low voice:

"Let's get started. ”

The distance is within four meters...... Crane didn't rush to make a move, retracted his gaze, and patiently watched as several members of the party exchanged the information of the unlucky ones for gold pounds, listening to Mr. X's occasional response.

As the minutes ticked by, and the focus of the party began to shift from Mr. X's bounty to trading with each other, Crane no longer hesitated, and pinched the first joint of his index finger twice with his left thumb, opening the "Spirit Thread" vision.

Illusory thin black lines immediately appeared in front of his eyes, and they drilled out of different people and spread into infinity.

After a little discernment, Klein covertly manipulated Mr. X's "spirit thread".

In his plan, there are two main difficulties in the mission, one of which is that Mr. X, who has the profession of "astrologer" in the preceding sequence, and the Aurora Sage, who may be hidden in the shadows, may have a sense of danger and be keenly aware of the anomaly when he begins to manipulate the corresponding "spirit line".

For Mr. X's spiritual intuition, Klein is quite sure, because when Miss Sharon existed as a "resentful spirit", she also failed to discover in advance the manipulation of her own "spirit line" by the "secret puppet master" Rosago, but a demigod and half-human sage, a high-level powerhouse who has obtained divinity, will not surprise Klein with any peculiarities, and his inspiration was touched by the changes in other people's "spirit thread", which is also not surprising.

Other "secret puppet masters" have a high probability of being helpless at this point, but Klein is different, he still has the identity of a "fool", and the power of the mysterious space above the gray fog can be borrowed, and he can rely on the interference of the "paper angel" in advance to eliminate hidden dangers.

The party went on without any anomaly, and the time of more than ten seconds was fleeting, and Crane was only three seconds away from initially controlling Mr. X, and the aurora emissary, unaware, was looking at the conclusion of a deal with deep eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

At the critical moment, Klein took the initiative to stop!

Barely holding on, he pulled out a hand and slipped into the pocket of his hooded robe, touching the iron cigarette case sealed with a "spiritual wall".

Klein immediately moved his finger and poked lightly to lift the "spiritual wall" and let it turn into a breeze in his pocket.

He retracted his palm and waited for a few more seconds until Mr. X's gaze looked to the other side before continuing to manipulate the "Spirit Line" downward.

Two seconds, one second, zero seconds!

Mr. X's thoughts froze, as if someone had poured cement into it that had just been stirred.

There are enemies...... Dangerous...... His thoughts swirled slowly, and he quickly made a decision, ready to warn his subordinates, to the one who was watching in the dark, and make an effective resistance.

At this moment, a cloud of coldness burrowed into his body, making his hands, feet, and mouth no longer belong to him.

"General above the blood" Seigno!

Possessed!

There are many flaws in the manipulation of the "Spirit Thread" by the "Secret Puppet Master", the biggest of which is that once it enters the initial control state, the target will immediately find the problem and have the ability to take various countermeasures.

If it is one-on-one, and there is no other person around, Klein can naturally take advantage of the other party's higher and higher "delay state" to interfere and interrupt the resistance more effectively, but if the target has other helpers, it will be difficult for the operation of the "secret puppet master" to hide from others, and there must be an environment or companion to help in order to carry it out covertly and without a trace.

And at this point, the "resentful spirit" who can possess the target and forcibly control the other party's behavior is simply the best assistant of the "secret puppet master"!

The reason why Klein didn't directly enter the initial control state just now was to take time to release the "resentful spirit".

After passing the entrance check, the living room where the meeting is located must have a relatively low level of vigilance!

Mr. X's eyes widened slightly, his thoughts gradually slowed down, and the words he wanted to shout were firmly locked by his own throat, sealed by his own mouth, and completely disappeared into invisibility.

And the hands that he was about to raise directly also slowed down and reached for the bone china teacup next to him.

This was completely against his will, and it was all done by the cold aura that occupied every corner of his body!

Resentful ...... Master of Secret Puppets...... No way...... Go on like this...... Will die silently...... Mr. X immediately took control of his own spirituality and sketched out complex symbols and logos in his mind.

He wants to open a "Traveler's Gate" around his body, that is, a "Teleportation Door", so as to directly escape the control range of the "Secret Puppet Master", and compared to this problem, the possession of resentful spirits is relatively less dangerous!

But in that sluggish and sluggish thought, the presentation of illusory symbols and logos is not done in one go, but one stroke at a time, one pause, not fast enough.

Seizing this opportunity, the "resentful spirit" Seigno, who possessed Mr. X, was manipulated by the "secret puppet master" Klein to simply move Mr. X's head and take the initiative to change his sitting posture.

This kind of behavior interrupts the secret formation of the "Traveler's Gate"!

Worst...... It's mine...... React...... Too slow...... will be ...... Resentful ...... Interference...... Use...... With a magical ...... Goods...... Mr. X's eyes were vaguely bloodshot, and the men around him were unaware, even the one who was secretly watching here, and they didn't notice anything abnormal.

As for the party members in communication and trading, it was because of the change in his sitting posture, softening his tone and lowering his voice.

At this moment, although the living room was full of people, although there were extraordinary people everywhere, all of them were his helpers, Mr. X felt an extreme loneliness and helplessness.

He didn't even know who was attacking him, where he was sitting!

As the thoughts went by, Mr. X regained control of his spirits and let them extend toward the ruby-encrusted gold ring he was wearing on his left index finger.

However, the process from thinking to deciding, from decision to action is too long, as if he is performing an inner drama in slow motion.

This gave Sennior enough time to lift Mr. X's left palm, flex his fingers, and tap "himself" on the side of his forehead, which was not covered by the brass mask, as if in thought.

In the very faint tuk tuk sound, the force of the knock was actually not small, but Seignol was well controlled under Klein's manipulation, allowing most of the force to penetrate Mr. X's head without dissipation, so as to cover up the movement.

Tuk!

Mr. X's idea of spreading spirituality was disturbed, and he couldn't find his thoughts for a while.

By the time he recovered, the "Master of Secret Puppets" had taken a step further, making his thoughts messy and sluggish, and even thinking and making decisions had become difficult.

Coupled with the interference caused by the various hidden small actions that the "Wraith" uses his body, Mr. X, although he has many extraordinary abilities and good magical items, inevitably slides step by step into the abyss of becoming a secret puppet.

He watched himself die in slow motion, completely powerless.

It was only at this time that he deeply realized how terrifying and incomprehensible the "secret puppet master" and "resentful soul" were.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the hunt went on silently.

As Klein's control deepened, Mr. X's movements became more and more stiff and sluggish, but with the possession of the "resentful spirit" to make up for it, others could not see the problem at all.

To be precise, Mr. X's actions no longer stem from his sluggish and rusty nature, but from the "resentful spirit" Seigno, which prevents him from even looking at him in despair.

Five minutes passed quickly in the midst of various transactions, successes and failures, disputes or discussions, and Crane was one last step away from killing Mr. X and turning him into his puppet.

However, he couldn't.

Because his "secret puppet master" potion has not been digested much, he can only control one puppet at present, and in order to transform Mr. X, he must give up the "resentful spirit" Seigor.

And once he gives up, this long-dead "blood general" will immediately emerge and be discovered, causing great trouble.

Similarly, if Klein does not give up the "Resentful Soul" secret puppet and take advantage of the opportunity that Mr. X has no ability to resist, he will have to kill him directly, and he must also consider the Aurora Sage who may exist in the shadows.

This is the second difficulty in his plan.

Quietly controlling Mr. X and depriving him of the ability to resist, with the combination of "Secret Puppet Master" and "Resentful Soul", it is not difficult, and it is not difficult to complete the kill, and now Mr. X in this state, Klein can easily solve him even if he uses air bullets.

The hard thing is how to get out of here safely after doing such an act.

And that requires a lot of patience.

Time flowed smoothly in Crane's seemingly calm but tense state of mind, and he pretended that he was not interested in what appeared here, and did not speak at all.

Finally, at the end of the meeting, Mr. X said in a low voice, without any anomaly:

"The end. ”

His words were succinct, exactly the same as the last one, which Hugh had described to Forth.

One by one, the party members got up, and Klein was mixed in, unremarkable, while he reached into his pocket and opened "Lemanno's Travel Notes" by feeling.
