Mystery: Start with the Reader

In a Gothic castle-style manor on the outskirts of Lynn, Ms. Helen with silver hair and silver eyes was sitting opposite a woman wearing a pure white dress.

This lady has dazzling golden pupils, a charming smile on her lips, and her waist-length black hair is full of luster.

In terms of looks alone, although she is not as good as Helen opposite her, the charming temperament exuding from her body has a unique charm.

She is the current patriarch of the Belial family and the second-fifth son of Jaldabao, Yarubed Belial.

——It is worth mentioning that the name Yarubeid was also the new name given to him by Russell after he tasted the taste of "succubus".

At this moment, the two ladies were sipping tea and looking at a round mirror placed on the table between them.

The round mirror shows the battle that is coming to an end in the "Tender Words" hotel.

Seeing "Cesia" transforming into a demon and killing a "serial killer" who wanted to escape in a hurry with a "lava sword", Yarubeid knocked on the table with his pale fingers, looked across and said: " All the 'Apostles of Desire' except Herta died... Nearly 70% of the 'Devils' died... Is this what you said he knows how to measure?"

"Isn't this what you want?" Helen did not answer directly, but said with a smile, "These family elders usually rely on the North family, and even the 'Mother Tree of Desire' to rely on, and they will not obey your orders. Do you ignore it?

"Even in this operation against Detective Blaine, if there hadn't been a 'devil' trait as a bait, and if the North family hadn't also issued a big order, would they have been so active?"

Yarubed was silent for a few seconds before saying: "At least half of the extraordinary characteristics must be left for me... I need them to improve the subordinates under my control."

"Detective Blaine and I made an agreement that we will share the harvest equally. I will try my best to help you get more characteristics back..." At this point, Helen's goddess-like beautiful face showed a philistine look, and her silver pupils showed a philistine look. He said jokingly, "But, what are you going to use to redeem them?"

"You paid for half of the things in exchange for stopping me from taking action, right?" Wouldn't it be inappropriate to come to me to collect money? Yarubeed was quite speechless. He only felt that the other party was more like a devil than himself.

"Is there any problem with this?" Ms. Helen asked with a smile.

"No problem... I just feel like you don't really look like a vampire..." Yarubeid shook his head, and then after hesitating for a moment, he continued, "In addition to the sulfur mine, the Beria family has been in the forest for more than a hundred years. All the properties run by En City can be given to you... Anyway, after experiencing this incident, the family can no longer hide in Silveras... If the authorities catch the eye, those properties will be confiscated sooner or later, so it is better to give you an advantage. .”

The demons of the Beria family rarely commit crimes near Linn. Even if someone can't help it occasionally, they will attack people from the plateau, so they have always been well hidden and have not been included in the official sight.

——A large part of the plateau people will leave their ancestral land when they reach adulthood and enter Backlund, Trier, Feneport City, and various prosperous cities and ports in the Northern Continent. Some will become workers, and some will Then they become the new blood of the local gang... In short, no one will pay attention to their disappearance.

"Deal." Ms. Helen made a brief estimate and nodded. Then, she looked at the picture of "Chessia" starting to sort out the items in the round mirror, and said with a smile, "It's over. I'll go over and take a look now."

Before she finished speaking, huge illusory bat wings appeared on her back, and then disappeared.

After she left, Yarubeid snorted coldly, stared at the round mirror, and said silently to himself:

"Herta is actually dead too... Huh, that detective is pretty good. Even I can't see through the ritual he arranged, and I can't sense it either...

"He even invited Helen... Without her, I would never have allowed so many 'apostles' to be killed!

“At least ‘Light’ and ‘Mirror’ that have nothing to do with the ‘Mother Tree of Desire’ don’t have to die!

"He also controlled Cecia? He is really as cunning and lustful as Russell...

"But this is fine. If the 'Mother Tree of Desire' turns its attention to him, the pressure on me will be much better...

"Speaking of Russell, with the help of the 'maze' he got from nowhere, when will the 'rules' he imposed on me be lifted?

"This rule of 'Don't kill innocent people' has made me have a lot more troubles when training my subordinates... Fortunately, there is no shortage of villains in this world who deserve to die."

…

In the "Classroom" of "Alvin Abram's Answer Maze".

The Goddess of Wealth... Extraordinary Ways to Extraterrestrial Planets... Abner enthusiastically used his spirituality to "click" on the "Details" flashing text behind the message, but saw the "Pay to View" prompt...

That "Wanderer" senior created this item just to take revenge on society, right?

Abner couldn't help but complain when he saw this, and then closed the list of level 4 permissions and prepared to leave this "Alvin Abraham Answer Maze".

——Although the access fee "only" costs 10,000 gold pounds, which is not much for Abner who still holds more than 300,000 in debt, but now is obviously not a good time to read that information.

As the door of the "classroom" opened on its own, Abner took one step back to the room where he had arranged the ceremony and returned to the hot spring pool.

At this moment, he also had a pair of square-framed glasses with frames made of pure gold in his hand, which was the body of the "Maze".

According to the brief introduction I just read, with the level 4 authority currently held by Abner, in addition to the function of pulling enemies from any mirror into the "Answer Maze", this item can also allow the holder to perform "mirror jumps" , the ability to detect the location of valuable items, etc...

“But the premise is that you must pay!

"It is worthy of being controlled by the goddess of wealth from an alien planet. She really wants money!"

After making a fuss, Abner turned on the "Pure White Eyes" again and "analyzed" the glasses for a moment. After confirming that their abilities and effects were no different from those in the introduction, he took off the copper-framed glasses he had been wearing. , replaced it.

Next, just when Abner was about to use the "ritual" to investigate the battle situation in the hotel, he saw "Charming Apostle" Cecia holding the magic mirror in one hand and "Light Apostle" Balu's penis in the other. In walks the scepter with a white orb on top.

Using the "Pure White Eyes", Abner easily discovered that the scepter had more characteristics of the "Apostle of Desire", and the aura of Auerbach, the former Pope of the "Eternal Blazing Sun" Church, was also in it. Faintly visible, but very unstable.

It should be that after Balu died in the battle, his characteristics were absorbed into the scepter, and Auerbach, who relied on Balu for his existence, transferred his spirit into the scepter.

While thinking in his mind, Abner took another look at "Chessia" and found that she was not seriously injured. It was just because she had been "demonized" before and had no clothes on her body again...

He handed the other person a yukata by the hot spring and asked:

"How's the situation?"

"Master." "Chessia", who was controlled by the "Magic Mirror", was dressing and reporting.

"The battle is over.

"The angel evil spirit severely damaged 'death' and 'killing' at the cost of the host's life...

"The two demons under my command betrayed me, killed them, and fought with the other demons to compete for their characteristics. The final victor was killed by me when he wanted to escape.

"In short, except for some of the 'criminals' and 'serial killers' who escaped from the situation at the beginning, only four 'devils' escaped from this place after paying a heavy price...

"I simply packed up the rest of the people's belongings and characteristics according to your instructions in advance and put them in another room.

"And I have also cleaned up the demon's corpse and blood stains."

Clean up? Have you "eated" clean? Tsk, I didn't expect that I was delayed for a while in the "maze". Not only was the battle over, but the battlefield was also cleaned up...

Although he thought so in his heart, Abner still praised "Magic Mirror" on the surface: "It's done well."

"Chessia" heard this and immediately bent her eyes, squirming like a little girl...

To do this with such a charming appearance is really... Abner looked away, and after simply putting away the ceremony, he went to the next room to see the situation of the three Fowles.

But at this moment, a ray of moonlight fell in front of him, and then, Ms. Helen's figure appeared in front of him.

…

In Bayam, above No. 15 Xiangshu Avenue, a first hunt belonging to Hermann is also taking place.

After a tough battle, the second officer of "Admiral Blood"'s flagship, "Steel" McVitie, who was still at a disadvantage, turned his head and saw two bolts of lightning shooting out of Klein's dark brown eyes like bullets, shining into him. pupils.

He subconsciously raised his head and clenched his teeth. His nostrils, mouth, and ears were full of blood, mixed with the melted skin.

This is the "spiritual puncture" of the "Interrogator" grazing by the "Creeping Hunger"!

To deal with extraordinary beings like "living corpses" who are as strong as steel, damage at the spiritual level is more effective!

The mental blow caused "Iron" Maiviti to lose the shackles of his mind while his body was temporarily stiff. Black, hard long hair grew on his face, and his teeth and nails continued to grow longer. , his skin squirmed and wanted to assemble, fading from dark to pale, like a real, crazy living corpse thirsting for blood!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Klein approached, then jumped up high, and the handle of the knife in his hand instantly transformed into a long-handled scythe. With just one stroke, the armor-like skin of the "living corpse" was completely torn off. Opened, and then the head was cut off!

This is the 5-minute demigod weapon "Funeral Blade" created by Abner.

"Gehrman joins the hunt tonight!"

The young man said softly.

He was wearing a silk top hat and a black trench coat. He was holding a huge scythe in one hand, and the other was covered with transparent human skin. Under the clear light, he seemed to be carrying the huge red moon on his back.
