Volume 2 Amber Chapter 96: The True Legacy
Ding ding ding ding…!!
There was a burst of loud noises.
The gentleman suddenly felt half of his body numbed by the shock. A powerful force was transmitted and the silver shield almost slipped out of his hand.
"cough!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood.
“How can a [Sequence 9] be so strong?!”
An unbelievable cry came from the silver kettle.
Whoosh! !
The ferocious dark golden figure threw another punch, and his entire arm drew an arc, bypassing the silver shield and attacking him.
"!!"
The gentleman was shocked.
He gritted his teeth and dived into the ground, and the silver shield in his hand was retracted in time, folding like an umbrella rib into its original shape of a cane.
Chen Lun's snake arm swung in the air, and the gentleman had already escaped into the ground, with half of his body falling down in mid-air.
"Want to run?"
Chen Lun snorted coldly.
He changed his fist into a palm and reached out to grab the gentleman, but was pushed away by the head of the silver pot, and finally only brushed the other's shoulder.
Bang!
As the gravel fell, the gentleman's figure disappeared.
This is the ability of [Sequence 9 - Tomb Robber]. After burrowing underground, the speed is not slow, but if the gentleman thinks he can escape in this way, he may have underestimated Chen Lun's tracking ability.
In the form of a giant snake, his senses were once again enhanced. Moreover, although he didn't catch the opponent in the last grab, his fingers touched the opponent's shoulder.
At that moment, Chen Lun used [Snake Kiss] to inject the gentleman with a super toxin. This super toxin not only has lethality, but is also an excellent tracking pheromone.
"Floy, wait for me here..."
Chen Lun turned and said something to Floy.
"I'll be back soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned into a dark golden afterimage and disappeared on the spot.
…
Hypericum Girls' School.
In the corner of the campus, the soil of a flower bed was suddenly turned over.
Margery slowly crawled out, shook off the mud and sand on his body, and stumbled towards the dormitory area.
Bang!
The door of the staff dormitory was kicked open and he almost fell to the ground.
Holding on to the table, he took off the silver pot on his head, revealing the face of a young man with a depressed complexion and blood oozing from his mouth and nose.
“Is he really [Sequence 9]… Even if he has a hidden path, he shouldn’t be so powerful!”
Margery muttered as he wiped the blood from his mouth and nose.
"Gentleman" is Margery's alias, a false identity in the mysterious society. His real identity is a lecturer at the Hypericum Girls' School, responsible for helping professors organize teaching materials and prepare lessons , and sometimes he will substitute for them when they are too busy.
Margery sat down at the desk, took out the medicine box and bandaged himself.
After so much time had passed, he could no longer use the historical reversal to recover. But while bandaging his wound, he suddenly spat out another mouthful of black blood, his pupils shrinking slightly.
"This is a big problem... Apart from going back in time, I don't have a good solution for this extraordinary toxin."
Margery casually wiped off the smelly black blood with a tissue and forced himself to calm down.
"Let's ask the teacher for help..."
He gritted his teeth and made the decision.
If he had not been forced to do so, he would not have wanted to do so. Firstly, because of his greed and carelessness, he was almost killed, which would make the teacher look down on him. Secondly, it would easily expose the teacher's current identity and attract the attention of the Red Apple Church.
The teacher is now worried about the pursuit of those red maniacs. Any carelessness will lead to more serious consequences.
Margery quickly wrote a letter and took out an inconspicuous textbook from the bookshelf.
He opened the textbook and took out a green bookmark from one of the pages.
"call……"
He let out a long breath and carefully held the green bookmark in his palm.
This was something he accidentally found in a tomb when he first entered the mysterious society. It was placed together with the bookmark, along with a silver pot and a silver cane.
These were originally "weird creatures" buried deeper in the tomb. As a transcendent from the "Earth Faction", tomb robbing was Maggie's forte, so it was naturally easier for him to find them.
Margery once wondered who buried these things, but he did not find the answer and just regarded it as his own adventure.
He had already figured out the silver pot and silver cane, but he still couldn't figure out the green bookmark.
He once used the method of reading through the past and the present to try out the extraordinary powers of various factions, and finally pried open the green bookmark through [Conspiracy Faction] [Sequence 8 - Locksmith]. Although he did not succeed completely, a title page accidentally fell out of it.
He discovered that the cover page had a strong suction force, but he couldn't look at it for too long, otherwise his sanity would be sucked away and he would lose control on the spot.
Since he couldn't figure it out, he simply traded it to someone else, trying to get someone else to help him figure it out. As long as he used the tricks he had done on the cover page to track down the target, he could get the results back.
However, he did not expect that the target he chose this time was not a simple [Sequence 9], but one whose strength far exceeded his own. Majerri regretted it deeply and now only thought about how to save himself.
Since that time when he pried open the green bookmark and the title page fell off, no matter how hard he tried, there was no response. But Margery had a hunch that it was definitely not simple and must have a deeper secret.
Margery packed her things, took the letter and prepared to go out.
The moment the door opens.
What caught his eye were five shiny black fingers, put together like knives , stabbing towards his throat.
“Get out of the way!!”
Maggie shouted in his heart and tried his best to dodge to the side.
But the next second, he heard a plain command:
"Stand still."
The shell-shaped necklace on the other person's chest glowed faintly, and for some reason, Margery was distracted for a moment at this critical moment.
Puff——!!
Blood was like ink , splattered on the wall.
A head flew down and rolled, and one could still see Margery's shocked expression.
Boom!
The headless corpse collapsed.
[Kill History and Ritual Society member Margery (Gentleman) [Sequence 8 - Historian] (Earth Faction) and gain 3000 experience points! ]
[The History and Ritual Association's favorability towards you has decreased! Currently it is disgust! ]
Chen Lun walked into the room calmly and closed the door behind him.
He first checked the room and found no hidden tricks. He then picked up the letter for help written by the gentleman, opened it, glanced at it casually, and then burned it.
Then he began to pack up his spoils.
A gentleman's silver pot and silver cane, a green bookmark, a tennis ball-shaped man-made [weird object], three low-sequence mysterious substances, and more than a hundred gold pounds.
Chen Lun exclaimed, "What a guy!"
Although this "gentleman" guy is a bit insidious, he is actually a generous person... Even though he is so rich, he still remembers to send him a package.
Originally, Chen Lun wanted to follow him after the society gathering, but the mouse he was tracking was stepped on to death by him.
Now the other party has come to my door again. I wonder what he is thinking.
[Philip's relics have been obtained, completing the hidden C-level mission: Philip's Legacy! ]
[Get the task reward: You have already received it, what other rewards do you want? ]
"???"
Chen Lun was bewildered.
