Versatile Mage: Imperial Dragon Emperor
Chapter 156 At dusk
"Persian wine?"
"The blue fragments recovered from the back of the second body were fragments of a bottle containing Persi wine."
At this moment, Lin Yi was rushing towards the Dusk Hotel, while talking to Lingling in the Hunter Association through the tiny headphones plugged into his ears.
"Persian wine is a kind of spirit brewed from the eyes of three different demons. One of the demon's eyes will release a special substance during the brewing process, causing the transparent wine bottle to be dyed Blue, the association’s analysis department has detected this substance on the debris, and in the entire foggy city area, this is the only cowboy tavern that still sells Persi wine.”
"Strong alcohol?!"
Hearing this word, Lin Yi's eyes lit up instantly. He had never drank wine brewed from demons, and he really wanted to taste it!
Lingling clearly noticed that Lin Yi's voice was higher and she said coldly.
"You are not allowed to drink alcohol during the commission period."
These words fell on Lin Yi's heart like a cold hammer, causing his high spirits to drop instantly.
“Understood~~”
Previously, he was caught drinking while on a commission by Senior Sister Leng Qing who was on a mission. Not only did he drag him to work as a free coolie, but he was also trained for a period of time after returning to Qingtian Hunting Station.
Excessive intake of alcohol will seriously affect a person's judgment, so drinking is strictly prohibited when hunting groups or tribunals are on missions.
Don't let your guard down where lives are at stake.
Although Lin Yi's physique makes it difficult for him to get drunk with alcohol, he will still do it honestly for the sake of his safety.
The Dusk Tavern is located in a relatively remote location. There are no street lights on the road. The sun is gradually tilting towards the horizon. The yellow and red sunlight shines on this medieval-style neighborhood, as if it has crossed time and returned to another place. century.
After walking for almost ten minutes, Lin Yi finally arrived at the Dusk Cowboy Tavern.
Looking at the shaky signboard, Lin Yi would have felt that he was in the wrong place if he hadn't heard the sound of the wooden fan coming from inside.
Pushing open the waist door of the tavern, there were not many guests in the tavern. There was an old man who was already drunk and was sleeping on the table in the corner. A ceiling fan hung from the ceiling and made a squeaking sound. A little breeze.
An old man who looked like a bartender and wore a cowboy hat stood behind the bar, carefully cleaning his glasses.
When the old man in the cowboy hat saw someone coming in, he didn't say any greetings. He just concentrated on wiping his wine glass. When Lin Yi sat down at the bar, the old man in the cowboy hat poured a glass of vodka and placed it in front of Lin Yi.
Lin Yi did not go to get the wine glass, but first took a look at the wine bottles on the counter, but did not see the blue wine bottle, so Lin Yi took out a photo and put it on the table.
"Store manager, I want to ask something. Do you have any impression of this person?"
As he spoke, Lin Yi took out a stack of pounds from his arms and placed it next to the photo.
The old man in the cowboy hat, who originally didn't want to pay attention to Lin Yi, took one look at the thickness of the bill and silently put it into his pocket.
"Old Baugh's son is a lazy bastard."
The old man in the cowboy hat spat, his expression slightly disgusted. It was obvious that the old man had a bad feeling about it.
"Has this guy ever been to this pub?"
"If you want this bastard to take a step forward, the drunkard will probably stop drinking. If you want to ask his son, old Baugh is over there."
The old man in the cowboy hat gestured to the drunken old man in the corner with his eyes.
Lin Yi didn't hesitate. He walked directly to Old Baofu's desk and patted Old Baofu's face, but the other party only murmured a few words in his sleep and showed no intention of waking up.
Seeing this, Lin Yi didn't waste any time. He condensed a bullet-shaped piece of ice on his fingertips and shot it directly at Old Baugh's crotch.
The ice bullet grazed Old Baugh's crotch, penetrated the wooden chair, hit the wooden floor, and left a small piece of ice on the floor.
The danger of annihilating his descendants and the extreme coldness caused the drunk old Baugh to stand up instantly, and his rough face that was originally reddish from wine turned pale.
Seeing Lin Yi being so cruel, the old man in the cowboy hat subconsciously covered his lower body.
Old Baugh panicked and touched his lifeblood, and found that it was still intact. He breathed a sigh of relief, and then stared at Lin Yi angrily.
"You bastard! Do you want to kill me, old Baofu? Let me tell you, the person who wants to kill me hasn't been born yet!"
Old Baugh yelled at Lin Yi at the top of his lungs, and then a sense of oppression belonging to an intermediate mage came from Old Baugh, pressing towards Lin Yi.
But what happened next was not as Lao Baofu expected. Lin Yi did not show any discomfort. Instead, he easily walked up to Lao Baofu and "gently" pushed him back onto the chair.
"Don't be so angry, old man. Didn't I wake you up? Look, you weren't hurt, were you?"
Old Baofu was a little confused by Lin Yi's behavior. After listening to Lin Yi's words and the fact that he drank a little too much, he felt that what the other party said made sense, so he felt that he had done too much. Too much.
"I'm sorry, kid, alcohol has made me lose my mind a little bit. What do you want from me?"
"It's okay, it's okay. I want to ask, old man, do you know the current situation of your son?"
As soon as Old Baugh heard Lin Yi talking about his son, his originally apologetic face was instantly filled with anger.
"You are talking about that bastard! I was still happy that he was finally willing to move! But he has been gone for several days, and now I can't even find his shadow! I don't know where this kid died!"
Lin Yi looked at Old Baofu's performance. It was obvious that the association hadn't told Old Baofu that his son was dead. Is this how these people work? Not notified immediately?
In fact, it’s not that people from the association didn’t want to notify. Since the head of the corpse was missing, and the whole body was full of toxins, even the fingerprints couldn’t be seen, and even trying to use DNA to identify them couldn’t be done. This also made the association The identity of the body was never found out.
It wasn't until Lin Yi took back the uncontaminated eyeball fragments that they confirmed his identity.
The most important thing is that this case did not attract much attention from above. After all, there are too many similar cases in this world. It is impossible to use most of the power to solve every such murder case. .
"Old man, have you ever heard of Persi wine?"
Lin Yi didn't plan to let him tell the other party that something happened to his son. He should let the association do it. He was afraid of the other party's current situation. Telling him that he might be regarded as a prisoner would lead to a lot of trouble if no clues were found.
"Don't always call me old man, just call me old Buff. As for the Perch wine."
Old Baugh paused for a moment and looked out the window. At this time, the sunlight shining through the window became increasingly slanted.
"It's almost time. If you want to drink Percy wine, just go out with me first. You can have it later."
After saying that, Old Baugh got up and walked out.
Lin Yi, who didn't know what he meant, could only follow and walk out.
Old Baugh pushed open the waist door of the tavern and left the tavern. Lin Yi, who was a few steps behind, also opened the waist door, but at this moment, dusk was approaching.
A wonderful change is taking place quietly.
Where is Mrs. Bao?
Lin Yi walked out of the tavern and found that the old Baugh who had gone out first was missing.
He took a few steps forward and looked around, but there was no one around.
There are only a few dilapidated wooden houses and some semi-demolished houses near the place where the Dusk Tavern is located. This area has been included in the scope of urban renewal, and some houses have been demolished recently.
On the way here, Lin Yi could still hear the sound of demolition of houses, but now there was no sound at all.
Lin Yi felt something was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong.
He turned his head and looked at the Dusk Tavern again. The originally shaky signboard was now hanging firmly on it.
"Where are the people?"
Old Baugh looked back and found that Lin Yi, who was supposed to be behind, had disappeared.
He glanced at the watch on his left hand to confirm that the time had come, and there were some noises coming from the tavern behind him. After the noises disappeared, Old Baugh walked into the tavern again.
"Old John, did you see that kid?"
"Didn't he follow you out?"
"Forget it, leave him alone, hurry up, take advantage of this time, and give me a glass of Persi wine."
Old Baugh had an impatient expression on his face.
Old John skillfully took out a small bottle of blue liquid from the secret compartment behind the counter and placed it in front of Old Baugh.
Seeing the blue wine bottle, Old Baugh quickly unscrewed the cap and drank it in one gulp.
Ha~~
"It's great! It tastes great to drink, Percy!"
Seeing the contented expression on Old Baugh's face, Old John said helplessly.
"You are one of the few people who likes to drink this wine."
"It can only be said that I have a unique vision. If it weren't for the strict conditions when drinking this wine, I guess this wine would be a big seller."
"I thought, who knew that this wine must be drunk during this time period to have the right taste. Drink it at other times and it will taste terrible. It's a pity that I thought I had discovered a perfect wine recipe."
Old John also shook his head angrily and said that Percy wine was a wine recipe he accidentally discovered in the wine cellar when he took over the old tavern passed down from his father's generation when he was young. He spent a lot of effort pressing the wine recipe. After brewing the wine, I found that the wine was extremely unpleasant to drink. The sewage in the toilet was even better than this.
Originally, he wanted to get rid of this batch of wine later, but the old Baugh, who was addicted to alcohol, saw him and drank some secretly while he was not paying attention.
It was only then that he discovered that Persi wine would only taste better at dusk, and when the time came after dusk, Persi wine would return to its evil taste.
"Why don't you go find your son? Someone has come to the door. Maybe something happened."
"What the hell does he do? If you find him and stay at home every day, why don't you just die? Don't talk about it. Give me another bottle while you still have time!"
"Hey! Lingling! Can you hear me?"
Lin Yi said into the miniature earphone, but there was only a rustling sound coming from the other side.
Trouble, judging from past experience, he may not be in the normal space, otherwise the communication headset specially designed by Qingtian Hunter would not be cut off so easily.
Looking at the dusk tavern with a faint blue light inside, Lin Yi's instinct told him not to act rashly, but to find a way to leave this weird space first.
But suddenly a sound broke through the air from behind Lin Yi, and Lin Yi's dragon sense also became strong at this moment.
But the opponent's speed was too fast, and Lin Yi had no time to make evasive moves.
Silver dragon scales instantly covered his hands like a tide. Lin Yi turned around and crossed his hands in front of his chest. At this time, a huge ax slammed into Lin Yi's dragon scale gauntlet.
The powerful force knocked Lin Yi away together, and the huge ax smashed Lin Yi into the half-demolished house behind. The already unstable house also collapsed under this huge impact.
boom!
A huge sound rose in this space, but the sound of collapse was also mixed with other sounds.
I saw a thick iron chain covered in blood being dragged along the ground, and the huge ax that hit Lin Yi was slowly being dragged out of the collapsed house.
The sound of the collision between the iron chains continued to echo, and the ax was quickly pulled back to a huge ax handle by the connected iron chains.
With a clang, the huge ax head was reconnected with the ax handle.
The huge figure holding the iron chain blood ax was looking in the direction Lin Yi flew out, still speaking an unknown language.
boom!
A figure instantly jumped out of the ruins and then landed on the ground.
Lin Yi looked warily at the huge figure about 500 meters away from him. At this moment, his hands were slightly lowered. The dragon scale gauntlets covering them had become uneven, and many dragon scales also fell to the ground. .
A tingling sensation was emanating from Lin Yi's hand.
The situation is a little bad.
Just now, Lin Yi had already prepared an anti-impact posture, but he was still easily knocked away by the giant axe. It is conceivable that the power of the creature that threw the ax was definitely stronger than Lin Yi's.
And the worst thing is that he can't summon Apu and the others. Although he can still keep in touch with them through the contract, the two sides are like an invisible wall between them. They can know the situation on the other side, but they can't. Unable to get to the other party.
Fortunately, the natural talent can still work, but the ultimate dragon transformation probably won't work.
The extreme dragon transformation requires him and Chi Hui to merge into one, and the current situation obviously cannot satisfy this situation.
"Apu, use the contact tool you put there to contact Lingling. Nothing will happen to me."
Ouch!
Apu also responded to Lin Yi through the contract. Fortunately, he had developed the habit of not staying in the contract space, and he just happened to leave the tavern one step ahead of Lin Yi, so he was not pulled into the strange space.
After hearing Apu's reply, all Lin Yi could do now was to wait until Lingling rescued him.
Boom! Boom!
A huge sound echoed in the space, and the huge figure was approaching Lin Yi step by step.
Seeing this, Lin Yi also took a deep breath, and the dragon energy turned on the gauntlet, returning it to its intact state.
After adjusting his breathing, Lin Yi looked at the huge figure, with a trace of bloodthirsty deep in his eyes.
Another dead line, I really admire myself
