Chapter 974: Gain and lose again, lose and regain
Without saying a word, Hohenheim hurriedly chased after him, and at the same time summoned the ethereal one, Evil Pill.
The invisibility magic used by most people or the treasures they carry are obtained by changing the refraction of light, but the ethereal evil pill is a creature formed from the element of light. It can see the unnatural distortion in the air at a glance.
The light, while using magic, returned the light in the surrounding air to nature, and the invisible Lloyd immediately appeared.
In the blink of an eye, Hohenheim had flown ten meters behind Lloyd.
"Ah~!" Lloyd exclaimed as he stepped on the walls on both sides of the alley and turned around, receiving two arrows.
The alleys of low-rise buildings in this civilian area are very narrow, and it is difficult to avoid the two arrows passing through. Coupled with Hohenheim's urgent pursuit, the arrow almost reached Hohenheim's eyes as soon as it came off the string.
It's just that if these two arrows were fired at others, they would definitely cause damage, but Hohenheim was once the supreme commander of the Yinhuang Army. His ability was beyond what these two arrows could withstand. He hit one side of his body,
Both arrows flew past him, and his speed of pursuit hardly slowed down at all.
"Stop for me." The fat doctor Norton performed air step in an instant, holding his left hand in front of his eyes, and the exquisite leather gloves lit up with a dazzling magic light: "Hand of the Green Soul, hold more for me.
Power!" With a cry, green magic flames ignited on the black and blue magic hand. All wood elements within a few meters were affected by the gloves, and their activity increased significantly. At the same time, the magic shorts on his right hand
The stick resonated with the feeling and cast a powerful magic: "Ancient Eagle!" In front of the stick, a green light array suddenly bloomed, and a plant falcon made of condensed elements flapped its wings and flew out quickly, its sharp gaze directed directly.
Staring at Hohenheim.
At the same time, Prince and Andrew were also chasing after him. A poisonous blood flying dragon that Andrew bought not long ago was also keeping an eye on Hohenheim. Prince's guardianship was not suitable for this situation, so he did not
call.
Hohenheim only chased Lloyd, regardless of the attacks coming from behind, and summoned the ethereal one. The evil pill turned into a ball of light mist to block Lloyd's way.
Lloyd was very alert. When he saw the light and mist gathering in front of him, his flying steps suddenly changed. He stepped on a horizontal wooden stake, turned around and jumped into the small alley on the other side. He knew the advantages and disadvantages of the terrain, so he would never fly out of the alley.
The messy layout in this alley is more suitable for him who is very agile. If he flies out of the alley and into the sky, it will become a magician's world.
Lloyd's twists and turns made it difficult for Hohenheim's instant magic to hit, but instead disturbed the residents here, making the situation even more chaotic.
The flying dragon that Hohenheim was chasing was followed closely by the ancient eagle, especially the ancient eagle. Although it was condensed with magic, it could fly freely in complex alleyways and turn corners.
Like a living bird, it seems it must hit its target.
Hoynheim glanced behind him, flew out of the alley on empty steps, and launched several magic attacks at the people, beasts, and magic who were chasing behind him. He turned his head and looked at Lloyd, who was running around below. He wanted to use
Magic attacks, but I am worried that powerful magic will hurt people, so I can only use small magic attacks instead.
However, the magic is small, but the power is not small. Lloyd has been in trouble many times. When he saw a grocery store next to him with an open door, he immediately rushed in. The evil pill that was blocking it also immediately shrank his body and turned into a human being.
It followed Lloyd and chased in. In this case, although it was ordered by its master not to use magic to attack forcefully, no one could match it in terms of the speed of chasing people and blocking them.
In the air, Hohenheim lost his target and noticed a strong wind coming from behind him. As a general, he had rich combat experience. He judged for a moment that he had no time to turn around to take the attack, so he was not in a hurry to turn around, but
He used the inertia of the air stepping forward to turn around. This was only a few tenths of a second. The moment he turned his head, the ancient eagle flew less than half a meter in front of him.
The distance of half a meter sometimes doesn't even take a blink of an eye, but Hohenheim's inertia turned around while the ancient eagle was chasing him, and he was also drifting back, giving him enough time to cast the spell.
He fiercely raised his magic power and gathered a protective shield of earth element.
Boom, the ancient eagle is not big in size, but its power is extremely amazing. The green eagle hit the rock shield of Hohenheim, blasting the rock shield to pieces on the spot, and the violent impact formed a stinging green light.
Shining in mid-air, like a head of green hair fluttering in the wind.
Hohenheim spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards. He couldn't fully use his magic to resist the blow. At this time, the venom flying dragon in mid-air spit poisonous mist and flew toward him. He quickly raised his magic power again.
The gust of wind that stimulated the instantaneous storm forcibly changed the trajectory of the body's flight. After escaping this blow, he always had enough time to complete the teleportation. He teleported to tens of meters away in one step, and was chased by magic of various attributes.
The man attacked fiercely.
Under the alleyway, Royd was running around in the residential houses, causing chaos and confusion along the way. But Evil Pill had no hindrance to these things at all. After a few chases, he had already caught up with Royd, and when he raised his hand, a waterfall of light struck him.
It hit Lloyd who was rushing towards him before he could turn around and avoid it.
Lloyd screamed in pain, and the whole thing flew out like a piece of paper. Holding the box tightly in his hand, he gritted his teeth secretly in the air, stretched out his leg, and hung it on a horizontal wooden pillar above his head.
He took advantage of the situation and jumped out like a fish along the skylight above. But he ran fast, and Evil Dan chased him even faster. As soon as Lloyd jumped out of the skylight, he saw a ball of light mist appearing in front of him.
'puff!'
There was another waterfall of light, and Lloyd was knocked away again. He could no longer take out the box in his hand and threw it into the air. Upon seeing this, Evil Dan's figure turned into light and flew to the box in an instant. He stretched out his hand to hold the falling box.
.Although it has no strength, it does not prevent it from using its strength to 'hold' the box.
The highly intelligent Evil Pill let Hoynheim, who was fighting with Andrew and the others, know that it had obtained the Ten Thousand Eyes Stone. Hoynheim immediately swept them away with a range of magic move, and in a flash, he came to Evil Pill and took the
The box with the Ten Thousand Eyes Stone was immediately put back into his space magic. He looked back at the people who were chasing him, recalled the ethereal person, Evil Dan, and walked away in an instant with empty steps.
"Damn, damn, damn, damn!" Ke shouted three times in a row. Norton gasped and cursed all kinds of curses. Although there were many of them and their pursuit speed was not slow, they could not compare with Huo Yin.
Heim, and the Poison Blood Flying Dragon also lost the direction of tracking after the target became invisible.
Norton, Andrew, Lloyd, and Prince were not the only ones who hated it. Who didn’t hate it so much that his teeth itched? The stone of ten thousand eyes that was finally obtained was taken away again before he could hold it in his hands.
It would be strange if I hate it so much that it smokes.
"Damn it!" The four people landed on the roof of someone else's house and could only stare blankly at the place where Hohenheim disappeared.
"What to do?" Prince asked.
But before their companions could answer, a large number of nearby residents pointed at them and started scolding them.
Andrew said: "Let's get out of here first."
…
On the other side, Inaniga led her subordinates back to the underground secret hall of Safim's house. Bodokasiji, who had been waiting in the hall, saw Alva being brought back at a glance: "Huh? You brought the one who was brought out?"
The chips were brought back, it seems the transaction failed."
Inanija knelt on one knee and said, "I beg the emperor to punish me. Inanija failed to complete the task."
Bodokasijie asked: "Does Hohenheim have the Ten Thousand Eyes Stone in his hand?"
"Yes, my subordinates saw it with their own eyes."
Potokasije sank for a long time.
Inaniga lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, Inaniga, you are disappointed."
Bodokaji took a long breath and said, "Let's talk about the specific situation first."
Nanica said: "I took Alva to the island in Longxin Lake as planned, and saw the Thousand Eyes Stone brought by Hohenheim, but when I was about to trade, many security officials suddenly appeared.
Including Chief of Police Halls is also here."
"Did he report the crime to the Sheriff's Office?"
Inaniga shook her head: "I don't think it looks like he reported the case, and a third group of people appeared in the chaos and took away the Thousand Eyes Stone that I had already obtained."
"The third group."
Nanika said: "And that person looks very strange. His whole body is dark green and he swims very fast in the water. I don't think it's some kind of clothes or armor, it should be some kind of demi-human."
"Hiss..." Safim heard Inanika's description and made a surprised sound.
Bodokasiji looked at him: "Safim, what do you know?"
Safim said: "From Inanika's description, this person should be a member of the Tide Clan among the alien races. I am also a noble in the Royal Capital recently. When I talked about this race, I said that it was a person living in a certain area of the West Sea.
A rare species that is rarely seen on the mainland."
"oh!"
"But recently, a Haichao tribe member came to the royal capital. I heard that this Haichao tribesman is often invited to the homes of nobles and wealthy businessmen as guests. I think it must be this person." Safim said.
Bodokashijie asked: "Do you know anything about this man?"
Safim shook his head: "No, I have never seen him. But he is from the Haichao tribe, so it is not difficult to find him."
Dokasi Jie looked at Inanika again: "I asked you to handle such an important task in person. I just hope you can handle it well. Unexpectedly, something went wrong."
Inaniga lowered her head.
Bodokaji said: "The matter has reached this point, and I don't want to say anything else. Inaniga, anyone who fails in the mission at the Prisoner's Gate will be punished. Although you are my favorite person, but
Nor can we absolve ourselves of the responsibility for failure.”
"Inaniga is willing to accept any punishment."
"I won't tell you what kind of punishment you should receive. As the highest torturer in the prison family, you should know what kind of punishment you should receive."
"Yes, Inaniga knows."
Bodokashijie said: "Okay, you go down and take this woman down with you, she is still useful."
Nanika and her men escorted Alva away.
"Safim, please go down too, I want to be quiet for a while."
Feim left the dark hall, but came back more than ten minutes later.
"Huh?" Dikui Bodokaji opened his eyes and saw Haosen behind Safim: "You are here."
"Di Kui," Haosen said with a salute.
Bodokasijie asked: "Are you here for anything?"
Haosen said: "I heard that today I will exchange hostages for Hohenheim's Thousand-Eye Stone, so I came here to pay attention to the progress of the matter and report my work status to Di Kui."
Bodokashijie remained silent, and Safim shook his head at him: "Inanija's mission failed, and she did not get the Thousand-Eyed Stone."
Haosen said: "I didn't expect that Inaniga also failed the mission."
Bodokasiji said impatiently: "I want to rest. Just report your work to Safim and let him report to me tomorrow."
"Yes, my subordinate is leaving." Haosen turned around and was about to leave when he suddenly said: "By the way, there is one more thing."
"What's up?"
Haosen said: "I was originally going to come here this evening, but I found someone following me on the way and I didn't come. I think there is something fishy about this matter. I'm afraid the person following me is not for my money, but for the prisoners."
door."
"Oh! Someone is following you." Bodokasijie's troubled voice became more energetic.
The keen Safim said: "Di Kui, this matter is related to the third party forces that appeared in the transaction. Is there a connection between them?"
Bodokajie said: "You mean that the people who followed Haosen are the same group of people who stole the Ten Thousand Eyes Stone."
"Yes, these things all happened today, which makes people think of each other." Safim said: "The purpose of that person following Haosen is for our prisoner's gate, and the real purpose is most likely to be Wan
Eye Stone. It seems that the appearance of a third party force to snatch the Thousand Eye Stone this time is not a simple matter, but premeditated."
Haosen said: "What are they doing to steal the Thousand Eyes Stone?"
Safim said: "No matter what they did, they robbed it. The Thousand-Eyed Stone is not widely used, but it has great uses. Any of those uses can be their motive for robbing the Thousand-Eyed Stone. Haosen, do you still remember?
What does the person following you look like?”
"I remember, it was about this high, with an ax on its back..." Haosen described it carefully.
Safim said: "There are two people who need to be investigated now. As long as we find out who they are, we may be able to know what their purpose is in grabbing the Thousand Eyes Stone."
Potokasijie suddenly said: "I don't care what their purpose is, as long as they dare to steal what I want, there will be only one way, a dead end!"
…
Under the magic streetlight, Andrew and the four of them gathered around with their luggage and discussed what to do next.
Norton said: "What else can we do? The first and most important thing is to find a place to stay. Now it is impossible to leave Hindmore. We just spent so much money and were kicked out by the hotel landlord. We have to find a place."
Let’s stay here first.”
Lloyd said: "It's not urgent, the royal capital is so big, are you worried that you won't have anywhere to live?"
Norton said: "It's best to stay in a hotel. I don't want to stay in a small hotel."
"Hey, you guys have strayed from the topic." Prince said: "The most important thing now is to think about how to get the Thousand-Eyed Stone back. That person will definitely look for the Prisoner's Gate after taking back the Thousand-Eyed Stone.
For people to trade, we may also start from this aspect."
"Well, Prince is right." Lloyd said: "But what's difficult now is that we don't have any clues about the Prisoner's Gate, and we don't know how long it will take to find clues. Their deal is imminent, and if it weren't for us today
If we were lucky enough to catch it at the time of their transaction, I'm afraid the Thousand-Eyed Stone has already disappeared without a trace."
Andrew said: "I do have a clue. In the afternoon, I asked a gangster for the name of a member of the Prisoner's Gate. We can find the location of the Prisoner's Gate through him."
Norton said: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's quickly find a hotel to stay in, and then go find the prisoner's gate."
On the other side, Halls led the team back to the police station. Not long after entering the building, a security guard came and reported: "Sir, the injured person died on the way to the hospital."
"Tch..." Halls rubbed his head unhappily.
Pai Luo said on the side: "Sir, we have been investigating the Prisoner's Gate for many years, and many of their members are recorded in our files. Don't worry."
Halls said: "Instruct people to go down and take care of this matter. Send out a few people to catch the two sixth prisoners and bring them back."
"By the way, what should we do with those two fat men?" asked Pyro.
Halls said: "Those two people are the accomplices of Bing Zhixie who broke into the palace to steal things. I asked people to keep them under guard. Be sure to keep an eye on them and not let them escape."
"Do you want to conduct interrogation and torture?"
Halls thought for a while and said: "Let's interrogate first."
Palo smiled and said: "Those two people look stupid. I'm afraid they can figure it out just by asking."
At this time Hohenheim arrived at the police headquarters.
"General Cheman." Halls hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "You were running in such a hurry just now. Where were you?"
Hohenheim shook his head: "It's okay."
"You're injured again." Halls saw that there was blood around his mouth and his clothes were soaked with blood. It was the blood from the old mouth that burst open again: "There is a hospital nearby, let me take you there."
In the hospital, the doctor healed Hohenheim's wound. After Halls called them out, he asked: "What happened? Can you tell me carefully?"
Hohenheim told him what happened.
Halls said in surprise: "I didn't expect that the Thousand Eyes Stone is actually in your hand."
"I no longer have a military position, Hols, I need your help." Hohenheim said: "Tonight's deal is like this. I don't know what they will do to Alva."
"Don't be too anxious, caring will lead to chaos." Halls nodded and said: "I will try my best to help you. This matter is also a case of our police station. But can you tell me why the Thousand Eyes Stone is in your hands?
?”
"This..." Hohenheim said: "This belongs to my wife."
"Alva's? How could she have such a person? This is a priceless treasure."
