Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

Audis had a total of three such "defensive strongholds." One was 176 Riverbend Avenue, which Audis had just abandoned, one was the Gahl Herbalist, and the last was 77 Hailin Avenue, where he currently resided most often.

In addition, he had set up some extraordinary traps in the basement of Hilton Avenue, the third-floor room of the "Camphor Ballroom," and the suburban laboratory, but their power and scale were far inferior to those three "defensive strongholds."

176 Riverbend Avenue was the first place he used a "composite" array, and he also did a lot of experiments there.

However, because he lacked experience at the time, the concealment was very poor. As long as an extraordinary person with a certain amount of mystical knowledge went up to the second floor, they could understand that these traps were arranged based on arrays.

Because of the experience here, Audis designed the "composite" arrays for the Gahl Herbalist and 77 Hailin Avenue. In addition to being much more powerful, the concealment was also very good.

Previously, when Audis dealt with the "Combat Scholar" and the "Secrets Sorcerer" who broke into the Gahl Herbalist, after he fired all the bullets in the "Flame Arrow," he planned to activate the herbalist's array.

But at this moment, he saw Elyia, a subordinate of the "Mysterious Queen," so he wanted to use "The Fool" to deter the "Mysterious Queen," so he ran to the backyard.

Who knew that Elyia was very cautious? After hearing Audis recite the honorific name of a certain existence, she chose to continue to wait and see, otherwise Audis would not have been so embarrassed.

As for the concealment of these "composite" arrays, Audis once used the method of inviting Bernadette to his home to test it.

As long as it is not activated, even a demigod would find it difficult to detect.

The reason for abandoning 176 Riverbend Avenue was because it was old stock, its power was limited, and it was not cost-effective to continue maintaining it.

Audis looked back at his initial masterpiece. The fire at 176 was burning bigger and bigger, but it did not spread to the neighbors.

In the firelight, someone finally shouted, "Fire!"

Audis turned around, quickly left in the thick fog, and returned to the hotel room he had booked earlier.

At this time, he took out the spoils and looked at them. A gauntlet and three extraordinary characteristics.

The gauntlet corresponded to the Sequence 8 level. The ability and negative effects were unknown. Audis couldn't use it at the moment, so he put it in the "Knowledge Wilderness."

The three extraordinary characteristics included one known Sequence 7 level "Briber" characteristic, and the other two were only known to be Sequence 9 level, with unknown corresponding sequences.

After putting away the spoils, Audis thought to himself: With these spoils, 176 Riverbend Avenue can be considered a worthwhile trip.

At this moment, a short sentence suddenly appeared on the wall in front of Audis: I'm here.

Audis was slightly stunned: "Did the gathering end so late?"

"I just watched a performance." Bernadette's voice came from the air. She commented: "With the help of the array, you already have the strength of Sequence 7.

"But those arrays can only be fixed there and cannot be taken away at any time, so you only have the strength of Sequence 7 in specific places."

Audis nodded: "That's a very pertinent evaluation."

Then he asked: "Have you contacted that 'Wraith'?"

"I asked for you." Bernadette, whose real person was unknown, said: "She said that she and her companions have not taken any action against the Intemperance School recently."

"That's strange." Audis couldn't help but frown: "Who is reminding me? And what is his purpose?"

… …

South Bridge District, Passion Bar.

There was no business here today. Inside, there was only the bar owner Simon, a bartender, and a 3N Party member watching them.

Bang ~

The wooden door was suddenly kicked open, and all three people's eyes turned to the door.

Grant, with brown hair, appeared there, his eyes bloodshot, and he looked to be in a very bad state.

The 3N Party member had a bad feeling: "What's wrong?"

Grant ignored his companion's question, grabbed Simon's collar and said: "What kind of monster is Le Roux? What kind of monster is he?"

Simon recalled Le Roux's instructions. When the other party came to him for the second time, he should not be polite with them.

So he said coldly: "I don't know what kind of monster he is, I only know that if you continue to grab my collar like this, you will die miserably."

Grant shuddered all over, immediately let go of Simon, then took a few steps back in a daze, and sat on the chair behind him.

The 3N Party member asked again: "What's wrong?"

"We… we fell into Le Roux's trap. Ford and Fitzjay are both dead," Grant said.

"What about Chief Selte?"

"He's dead too." Grant then changed his words: "He must be dead too, he was trapped there at the time."

After being surprised, the 3N Party member immediately said: "Quick, go back and ask for help!"

Grant was dragged away like a walking corpse.

Simon, who was straightening his collar, heard their conversation clearly: "A chief is dead…"

Yesterday, he had just found out that the organization that had been bothering them before was called the 3N Party. It was said that this organization had three chiefs, and each chief had magical abilities.

"Give me a glass of wine," Simon said to the bartender.

He wanted to congratulate himself that he would have a new backer, because it was said that the person who could kill the 3N Party chief would become the new chief of this organization.

Thursday morning, Queen's Avenue, Count Donatt's villa.

Today, Donatt's eldest son, Joles, held a mystical salon in the villa, inviting many aristocratic children with mystical hobbies to participate.

Among them was Audrey Hall. Today, Audrey shared three preparation methods for daisies with several friends, as well as the effects of this herb.

The surrounding aristocratic children were amazed and praised Audrey for her professional handling of this herb and her very detailed explanation, which everyone could understand.

Audrey smiled and accepted these praises, saying in her heart: This is thanks to the materials provided by "The Hermit."

At the same time, she did not forget to praise her friends a few words, making everyone very happy, so that the discussion atmosphere of the entire salon became lively.

When this topic came to an end, Audrey smiled and said: "Unfortunately, we have too few mystical events to come into contact with. Each salon can only talk about this kind of mystical knowledge."

At this time, a young aristocratic man said: "I have a mystical event that happened in Backlund to share with everyone!"

No mistake, first release, one inside, one capacity, one in one look!

The speaker was Quincy, the son of Earl Philip.

Audrey kept smiling and looked at the other party, and everyone else looked at Quincy.

In fact, Audrey had noticed that Quincy's expression today was somewhat contemptuous, and he did not listen carefully to other people's speeches at all.

Moreover, he wanted to speak several times, but he held back. It was obvious that he had learned some mystical news and wanted to throw it out when the salon reached its most exciting point.

So Audrey helped to create a good atmosphere, and then threw out her "regret" at the right time. Quincy immediately "took the bait."

Quincy said: "This morning, a mystical case occurred at 176 Riverbend Avenue."

Joles, the initiator of this salon, was stunned at first, and then said: "I saw it in today's morning newspaper. The newspaper said it was a fire caused by a gang fight."

Several aristocratic children nodded in agreement. They had all read this report.

"At first, the police thought it was a fire," Quincy continued: "But when cleaning up the scene, they found three bodies!

"Because very few people live in that house, they thought it was a gang fight.

"But before I came to participate in the salon, I accidentally learned about the autopsy results of those three bodies.

"Of the three dead, one was stabbed to death with a sharp weapon, one was drained of blood, and although one had a wound on his neck, he was frozen to death!"

The other aristocratic children expressed their surprise: "Frozen to death? Frozen to death at the scene of a fire?"

"Oh, God, drained of blood?"

"… …"

Everyone did not question the autopsy results provided by Quincy, because Quincy's father, Earl Philip, was the Minister of Security.

Quincy said: "This must be a case involving mysticism!"

"Regarding this case, I happened to learn some inside information unintentionally." The speaker was a young nobleman in his early twenties named Theodore.

The aristocratic children who came to participate in the salon immediately said: "Tell us quickly."

"What exactly is going on?"

"Everyone knows that I like to go to 155 King's Avenue to watch fighting matches." Theodore smiled and said: "Of course, this is also related to the fact that my cousin is currently the manager of the fighting arena."

Audrey frowned slightly when she heard this. Most of the people present knew about the so-called fighting matches that took place there.

But Audrey only saw indifference, saw taken-for-granted, but no one, even through their eyes, expressed any doubt about the existence of the fighting arena.

At this time, Theodore continued: "This morning, I went to my cousin to get this week's tickets, only to find out that yesterday there were fighting arena contestants who had an off-site fight on Riverbend Avenue because of the results of a certain match last week.

"It is said that three people died in that fight, one of whom was a veteran contestant in the fighting arena.

"And their opponent was a new contestant named Le Roux!"

Audrey momentarily lost her composure as the "Spectator": "Lelouch?"

"Yes, that's the name," Theodore said with certainty after a moment of recollection.

He continued, "Everyone should understand now, right? The same Riverbend Avenue, the same three deaths."

Jols said, "So, this Lelouch might be a Beyonder?"

Audrey thought: Based on my previous observations, Lelouch isn't a malicious person. Why would he suddenly kill three people?
