Chapter 24 The traitor and follow-up~)(1/2)
"Are you warning me that there might be a traitor in the Night's Watch?"
Lyndon immediately understood what Simon meant by his warning.
Modify memories and create illusions...
Isn't this what Jana and herself encountered when they faced off against Alice?
The woman with red wavy hair, who is suspected to be Catalina, has indeed used this ability.
If this is the ability of the Night Watch, why didn't Antar notice it?
still,
He was deliberately hiding it from himself.
Although Linden's tone was questioning, he still thought carefully about what Old Simon's speculation meant.
There is a traitor in the Night Watch organization, which is a huge problem!
"Sir, I can't give you a direct answer in the affirmative. This only represents my personal guess.
I know very well that if you dare to question the Night Watch in Loft City, you need to provide very sufficient evidence."
"Then why do you dare to mention it to me? You know my identity very well."
Simon chuckled:
"You are a foreigner and you are so young. I believe that even if you join the Night Watch, you still don't understand many things.
Secondly, there is a more critical reason.”
"oh?"
"No matter how powerful the night watchman is, he can't create space like you and wake me up.
You must have other noble identities, I know you have secrets, but I will not try to find out about you."
Linden also laughed:
"What you're saying now sounds nice. If it changes hands and sells me, there's nothing I can do about it.
Don't be afraid,
Shall I silence you after I get the information?"
"Sir, you don't know how much I hate Carpio. If you can solve this scourge in Loft City, what does it matter if I lose my life?
Anyway, without you saving me, death would be just a matter of time."
"I don't think you really care about Loft City, but I choose to accept your explanation."
"Thank you for your understanding."
"Moreover, I can give you a chance and provide you with regular treatment to ensure that you can stay awake for a period of time."
"……what did you say!?"
Linden's plain words immediately stunned Simon.
It took him a long time to react, and he exhaled in shock.
Even his hunched back straightened a little at this moment.
"Can you perform a healing method like this many times?"
"I don't guarantee whether it will be effective every time or how long it will last. If there is a possibility that I cannot control, I will deal with you in advance."
Linden spoke slowly and put forward all his requirements.
"So, I need you to always be under my control and provide me with more information."
"In compliance with your instructions, you have given me the possibility to see Carpio defeated, which I look forward to very much."
"You clean up, and I will give you a place to stay temporarily. In case you don't die from the mutation, you are also killed by Carpio's sneak attack."
Lyndon planned to place him in the basement of his personal office.
The office's house is nothing special, except that it is extremely large and can accommodate many people living at the same time.
Then I discussed with Antar and said that Simon was an important witness.
In this way, you don't even have to do the task of supervising him yourself.
Wishful thinking Lyndon played loudly.
"You are so thoughtful."
Simon saluted respectfully again.
After using two spells at once, Linden surprisingly didn't feel tired.
For the upper limit of the use of special abilities,
Seems to have improved?
Maybe if I use these spells more often, I can gain a certain level of strength every time I get weak.
Linden guessed so.
He raised his arm and snapped his fingers to dissolve the black dream, turning the surrounding environment into an alchemy workshop again.
Jana is already very familiar with this process. Compared with her, Simon is obviously much less calm.
When the black mist faded from his feet, the old man jumped up, subconsciously trying to escape.
Simon thought that this space was about to collapse.
When he saw that both Lyndon and Jana hadn't moved at all, he stood up again with some embarrassment.
After leaving the black dream, he returned to his monster form again.
The special thing about Dream Awakening is that it can only be used within Black Dream.
Its operating mechanism is relatively similar to awakening the original soul of a possessed person.
The original soul is difficult to be contaminated, and this part of the original essence can retain deep memories.
therefore,
After being forcibly covered with the original soul and falling into the possessed state, the possessed person can remain awake for a period of time.
How long it lasts depends on how deep the obsession is.
Compared with simply and crudely subduing the spirit body for torture after the possessed person dies, waking up from a dream is undoubtedly more advanced and can obtain more important information.
Asking the spirits directly will easily touch their fear points, causing a breakdown in communication.
If waking up from a dream had not been learned recently,
He would not have wasted so many good opportunities before, splicing scattered information from the broken spirit body.
What a pity!
Learning to wake up from dreams as early as possible can maximize the value of more possessed people.
Including Dr. Kennedy.
Although if he was not possessed by a demon and was questioned about the spirit body, Lyndon would not have the chance to contact the Night Watchman later.
Overall, there are pros and cons.
and,
The notebook left by Dr. Kennedy has not yet been opened by me.
Combined with Simon's confession, there must be shocking news in the notebook!
Perhaps, after the contents are unsealed, everything will be revealed.
also,
Taking Simon as an example, the monster's surgical experiments are somewhat similar to those of possessed people.
This is probably why Linden was able to successfully wake up Simon.
The existence of transformed monsters and possessed people is similar but different.
If Jana gets familiar with it a few more times, she should be able to get familiar with this taste.
The next time you encounter it, you won't have the problem of alert failure.
Linden and Simon asked for a pen and paper to write down the address and contact information of Linden's personal office.
"Mr. Linden? Well, I expect to move there in five days.
Of course, if an emergency occurs, I will contact you in time."
"No problem, just be careful not to let anyone notice that you are awake."
After putting Jana in his briefcase, Linden decided to go to the police station first after walking out of Simon's Alchemy Workshop.
There was some information that he needed the senior night watchman to help him analyze.
When passing by the bar of the tavern, the black market foreman Crocodile waved to him and laughed loudly:
To be continued...
