Chapter 281 Inquiry
Outside the manor.
Fang Xian, who had been paying attention to the situation, suddenly discovered that the "shadow" covering the manor had disappeared.
[Danger Premonition] No longer gives crazy warnings.
But the whole manor has become old and dilapidated...no sound can be heard anymore, as if even the insects and pigs have lost their lives.
"That dangerous being... is gone?"
Fang Xian hesitated for a moment, but still didn't dare to enter the manor to search.
He continued to retreat, preparing to return to the Laurel Inn.
Although there was no result from tonight's exploration, it is not a big deal.
He has long been accustomed to the fact that hard work does not necessarily bring rewards.
"ah!"
When he was halfway there, he suddenly heard screams of terror coming from an apartment building not far away.
Several tenants in pajamas had just escaped through the door in panic when they were caught up by a monster covered in black hair, which devoured their flesh and blood.
"An out-of-control transcendent?"
Fang Xian took a glance and wanted to leave without interfering.
But the next moment, his eyes widened as he saw a certain emblem on the torn clothes on the monster.
That's the Miller family logo!
"A member of the Miller family? Why is he here? And out of control?"
Fang Xian thought for a moment, touched his forehead, and feeling no danger, he immediately rushed forward.
He didn't know that this monster was Dick Miller.
After being forced into a desperate situation, Dick had to use the power of the magical item to forcibly teleport.
However, the rank of this item is too low, so it may not be successful, and the distance is not very far.
Even more unfortunate was that it took a certain amount of time to activate, and as a result, he was affected by the "Corruptor" before being teleported. Although he successfully escaped to a safe area, he suffered the fate of being out of control.
Dick, who was randomly teleported to a residential building, was unable to control his desire to kill and started a massacre.
Moreover, since the Special Branch and the sheriff have gone to the suburbs to participate in the operation to encircle and suppress the zombies, it will probably take a long time to subdue them.
However, now it has met Fang Xian.
In order to facilitate the work, Fang Xian had already disguised himself. He rushed out directly at this time, with a layer of steel on his body, and crashed into the monster.
Bang!
The black-haired monster was knocked away, leaving a huge dent on the wall.
It roared, and black hairs like needles suddenly shot out in all directions.
Those tenants who had not yet escaped far enough were instantly stabbed to pieces and fell dead to the ground.
Ding ding dong!
Fang Xian closed his eyes and let the black hair needles fall on his body, making a sound of metal clashing. He grabbed the black hair monster and punched it three times in a row, knocking it to the ground, unable to get up for a while.
"Blood manipulation!"
At the same time, the blood of innocent passers-by around gathered together and fell into Fang Xian's hands, collapsing inward to form a black and red bomb.
"burst!"
He stepped back a distance, his voice cold.
Boom!
A ball of fire exploded on the black-haired monster, blowing it into pieces. Countless black hairs were burning, and it could no longer move.
It's dead!
Upon seeing this, Fang Xian's eyes suddenly became blank. He used his ability of [Soul Out of Body] to pull out a dazed spirit from the monster's corpse.
This is his goal!
After doing all this, he quickly glanced at the scene and left in a hurry.
…
Somewhere in a sewer.
"Monsters won't answer questions, and they are unlikely to carry any information. However, their spirits can still be rescued... at least we can ask for some information."
Fang Xian maintained his soul out of body and began to interrogate the captured spirit.
Although the other party was out of control and his spirit seemed a little dazed, he was not completely distorted. Instead, he answered every question.
"Your name!"
"Dick Miller!"
"What is the purpose of your visit this time?"
"Complete a takeover!"
…
Starting with a simple question and answer, Fang Xian slowly went deeper: "Who in the Miller family keeps the top knowledge of the 'Warlock Tower'?"
"The family treasury... the Book of Pure Blood in the hands of the clan leader... the family's silver-level guardians and above... and Takumi Miller and Solon Miller..."
Dick Miller said several names in a row, and Fang Xian remembered them firmly.
Of course, he would not provoke the Miller family's treasure house, the patriarch, and the strong men above the silver level.
But he is not really afraid of some "Blood Warlocks" at the "Quenched Black Iron" level.
In the Miller family, there are several warlocks of this level who have accumulated enough merits in exchange for corresponding advanced knowledge.
Originally these were all secrets, but they were betrayed by an insider.
"In this world, there are relatively few mysterious people who can achieve the soul leaving the body? Moreover... there are also very few spells ... This is why I have a chance..."
"Also, even if there is a seal... it is not impossible to try to break it by force... I have some experience in the art of searching the soul with the Yin Spirit... After all, when alchemists practice the way of reincarnation, they mainly cultivate the soul and supplement the body..."
Fang Xian asked a few more secrets, and suddenly thought of something:
"Who is the attacker this time?"
"The Corrupted!" Dick Miller's spirit answered honestly.
"Purpose?"
"In order to obtain a treasure left by the gods on the top of the tower, Ferdinand found a secret realm that contained a key piece of information. Our family and some evil organizations have been searching for this... For this purpose, our family has also formulated a series of plans against the Roland family..."
Dick's voice slowly deepened.
The originally translucent color of his spirit body quickly turned turbid, and strands of illusory black hair emerged.
This is because his spiritual body has reached its limit and has been polluted.
"It was indeed the Miller family who did it."
Fang Xian waved his hand and annihilated the spirit, his eyes dim.
Originally, his plan was to go to the Narnias Empire to pursue the inheritance of the 'Tower of the Warlock'.
But now, the information provided by Dick Miller is obviously more feasible.
In addition, the secret left by the god and the treasure that the Miller family has been pursuing also aroused some interest in Fang Xian.
"What's more... the other party was the one who took the initiative to plot against the Roland family. Andre thought he was on good terms with this family. He really doesn't understand the dirty tricks of the nobles under the table. Maybe he was sold out and helped count the money..."
"But since it was the Miller family who made the first move, I don't need to worry about anything when I try to seize their inheritance of the 'Warlock Tower'..."
"And about that god's treasure..."
Fang Xian walked out of the sewer with a pensive look on his face.
Dick knew very little about this intelligence. He only knew that the 'Corruptor' came for this purpose, and the only important information he really knew was actually a mysterious symbol. This was his biggest secret, and he didn't even tell his family.
That mysterious symbol is an inverted triangle with an Ouroboros ring in the middle!
The symbol of dreamland!
"This guy is actually a member of Dream Town, and he's hiding this identity... But that's normal, everyone has their own secrets."
"He is very ambitious. Does he want to keep all the secrets about Dreamland and the gods for himself?"
