You call this a black hand?

The huge map basically occupies the entire desk. It is yellow in color and full of lines. At a glance, it looks very detailed and complicated.

Among these lines, there are thousands of small black dots representing various characters, like a swarm of squirming ants, so densely packed that it is very difficult to find a specific person among them.

However, as long as Meren, who has a golden finger, adds a lucky buff to himself, he can find the target directly without putting in much effort. He can just glance at it casually.

The first thing he saw was the clue that he had predicted before that would allow him to understand the fountain of heaven.

That is a landscape called Veblen’s Statue of the Saint.

The statue is built in a square and is relatively conspicuous.

But it doesn't seem to have anything special on the map, and I haven't seen an area called the Hidden Temple nearby.

This may require some special method to trigger the secrets in the statue.

After all, predictions can never go wrong.

It's just that this map obviously can't reveal the corresponding secrets at the same time.

Mellen then turned to look for another goal——

Prescott.

The name of the sleeping Holy Spirit was this, and he remembered it very clearly.

Considering the changes of the times, even if the Holy Spirit of the old world survives, it should be in a very weak state, otherwise its predicted outcome would not be death. Therefore, Melen has great expectations for finding the other party.

However, the results were somewhat beyond expectations.

It’s not that I didn’t find anything, it’s that I found a lot.

At this moment, in the northwest corner of the map, there is a Prescott in an area called Evans Religious Library.

In the area to the left of the center of the map, marked as the Floating Observatory, there is a Prescott.

In the southern area of ​​the school, in an area called the Cursed Forest, there is also a Prescott...

Counting carefully, there are actually seven Prescotts existing at the same time in the entire Fort St. Grant!

"This can't be the same name."

Mellen thought thoughtfully.

Students and tutors in the school, regardless of their status, will at least have a first and last name.

Even if someone only has a first name but no surname, it is impossible to meet seven people with the same name in a row.

So, this may be a kind of clone ability.

But since it can be separated, it means that the Holy Spirit has not completely fallen into a deep sleep. If you look closely, you can see that some of the small black dots are even moving slowly.

Mellen then used the Thread of Destiny to take a look at Alyssa's fate, and the result was unchanged.

"His abilities should be limited."

Mellen realized something because of this, "Otherwise Alyssa's death shouldn't have been two months later."

The precognition mentioned that two months later, due to his investigation with Mrs. Chelsea, the Holy Spirit was awakened, which led to Alyssa's death.

But now that the Holy Spirit still has the ability to act, it means that in the current state of the Holy Spirit, there is nothing special about Alyssa.

Only after entering the Hidden Temple and completely "awakening" the Holy Spirit will things get worse in vain.

"But even if the Holy Spirit has not fully awakened, he should still have considerable strength..."

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and Mellen turned his eyes and looked at the leader of the Scarlet Cross who had disguised his identity and was hiding in the school.

The little black spot that the other party belongs to has moved from the work station to the accommodation area and seems to be taking a rest.

So with a thought, he transformed into Anthony, then took out the book of fraud, turned it to a blank page, and filled in the corresponding contact target as Prescott.

There is a corresponding target in mind, and a psychic-like match will naturally not cause the Book of Deception to add the wrong person.

Then, Mellen roughly revealed to this person the conspiracy of a certain organization to start a demonic tide, and the fact that the leader of a certain organization was hiding in Fort St. Grant.

In doing so, Mellen is certainly trying to drive away a tiger and devour a wolf.

Judging from Alyssa's fate line, this Holy Spirit's position is obviously against the restart of the demonic tide, and he even sacrificed his own life for this.

In other words, the leader of the Scarlet Cross and the Holy Spirit are naturally hostile.

And in Mellen's eyes, these two are more or less harmful.

Therefore, Mellen can completely stay out of the matter and let the two sides fight dog-eat-dog.

In this way, it's hard to say whether one of them can be solved. At least he can get a deeper understanding of the details of both parties through watching...

However, after looking at the few motionless black dots on the map, Melen did not think that the two sides would directly fight.

Because since he is an old antique who is still alive today, the Holy Spirit should understand that erasing the leader of the organization does not mean that he can stop the organization's plan.

Alarming the snake will only make the snake escape. Secretly taking advantage of the snake's existence and figuring out its overall plan is the first thing to do.

Of course, before that, what the Holy Spirit should actually do is to determine whether the news is true or false, and even investigate this mysterious man.

But since Meren used the Book of Deception instead of the map's ability to communicate, he had already considered whether he had left any clues.

"Unless he can understand the existence of the Book of Deception..."

After pondering for a moment, Mellen turned the page to the nun, ready to see if there was any new news.

The result was a surprise to him.

Because the other party claimed to have arrived at Thunder Island, which is the area where Fort St. Grant is located.

…

At the same time, in a quiet library.

While sorting the books on the bookshelf, a female student whispered to her companion: "It is said that another big event happened in Cape Verde not long ago."

"What's the big deal?"

"I don't know. It seems that the school's top management is holding an emergency meeting because of this matter. I went to see Vice President Yin Nide before, but I didn't see anyone."

"cape verde……"

The companion said thoughtfully: "Isn't there a search and rescue of Athena over there? Maybe it has something to do with her?"

"Who knows...but in comparison, I am more willing to believe that it is related to the mysterious knight."

"The knight who killed the third prince?"

"Well, speaking of the third prince, maybe this has something to do with the Imperial people?"

The female student said: "But if you think about it, if it's really a big deal, there should be something in tomorrow's newspaper—"

A tapping sound on the bookshelf suddenly sounded, interrupting her words.

Two students who were working part-time jobs in the library during the holidays were shocked.

But when they turned around and saw the person coming, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Jonah, what are you doing?"

The female student who spoke first complained: "There is no sound at all when walking, like a ghost."

"excuse me."

The person called Jonah was a tall brown-haired young man who smiled apologetically after hearing this.

"I just want to ask you something."

"You want to ask about Vice Dean Yin Nide again?"

"No, it's about the disposal of prohibited items."

The brown-haired young man asked in a low voice: "I remember that the person in charge of this matter was a Mr. Ackerman?"

"Ackerman Corey is the supervisor of the Contraband Room."

The female student replied: "But his speech is unpleasant and his temperament is also very mean... Do you want to intercede on behalf of a certain student? Then you'd better go to Kai Yin, he is the one who is easy to talk to in the processing room."

"Thank you for your suggestion, I will consider it."

The young man nodded to her gratefully, then turned and left.

"Jonah is actually pretty good-looking?"

Watching his back disappear from sight, the female student said to her companion: "Especially when he laughs, why didn't I notice it before?"

"What's the use of looking good?"

The companion curled his lips when he heard this, "There's no way he likes you."

"Of course, none of you know that Jonah likes Vice President Yin Nide."

When the female student said this, she shuddered unconsciously, "I really don't know what kind of quirk he has. Vice President Yin Nide can be his grandmother, but he pursues her so hard..."

"This may be a family relationship."

The companion seemed to have thought of something, and even whispered: "I heard a rumor before."

"What gossip?"

"Jonah's grandfather liked Vice President Yin Nide at the beginning. It is said that the two were lovers for a while, but later broke up."

"...Isn't his grandfather still alive? I remember correctly, working as a ranger in the Cursed Forest?"

"yes."

"So, Jonah likes his grandpa's ex-girlfriend?"

"I heard that's the case..."

The female student heard this and said nothing.

Thinking of the words she had used to praise the other person's beauty, she suddenly felt the urge to vomit.
