Miss Louisa, who was looking through the information with her head lowered and using the dim light in her hand, seemed completely unaware of the situation behind her. But behind the man holding a short knife, the figure of Dr. Schneider, who should have walked out of the room, appeared:
"Is it because we came too fast? You are too easily fooled."
The rumbling thunder finally exploded at this moment.
In the darkened study room after the lightning, Dr. Schneider grabbed the wrist of the man holding the knife, while Miss Louisa, who had her head lowered, suddenly turned around, with flaming fists, like that night when the relic was out of control due to the attack.
The fish-man appeared and punched the attacker behind him in the abdomen.
Flames sputtered amidst the muffled sound, and the strange man's left hand blocked Miss Louisa's right hand. Then, he jumped up on the spot with an incredible movement. After breaking free from the doctor's control, his whole body was stuck to the ceiling like a gecko.
.
After simply judging the current situation, the figure had no intention of fighting with the two men. He quickly left the light area of the gas lamp above the desk, then immediately rushed out of the study and plunged into the silver mist that filled the corridor. This kind of
The small and limited terrain is most suitable for Shade's illusion.
Shade also stood in the silver mist, watching the figure rushing in. He ran around for a while, and then stopped cautiously. It was a man with yellow hair of medium build and an eyepatch on his left eye. He was carrying a bag in his right hand.
The sword stood in the silver mist, cautiously waiting for the illusion user's attack.
But Shade was very self-aware and did not want to fight in close combat with a ring warlock who was definitely higher than him. When he saw the man holding the knife stopped, he dispersed the silver mist, and Miss Louisa, who had been prepared, floated behind her.
He rushed over with a huge life ring.
The gleaming rope fell from the sky and was put around the man's neck. But he just slashed upward with the knife and actually cut the rope. Before Miss Louisa could make the next move, the man's tip lifted the knife and let the left hand move.
The blindfold slipped off his eyes.
Behind the blindfold, the terrifying blue eyeballs were dripping and spinning, causing Miss Louisa to step back subconsciously, and she warned loudly:
"Relic! Magic Eye!"
The eye seemed to be moving around in the eye socket as if it was out of the man's control, and the whites of the eyes kept appearing in large areas. Seeing Miss Louisa retreating with her eyes closed, the man holding the knife immediately turned to look at Shade.
Unprepared, Shade looked into those eyes. The blue eyes were different from Dr. Schneider's blue eyes. The madness revealed in those terrifying eyes was like the madness of the last survivor before the world was on the verge of destruction.
.
The lightning outside the window flashed again at this moment, and the white light illuminated the two people looking at each other. It also allowed Shade to completely see the other person's face, which belonged to a middle-aged man. There were probably many stories about his vicissitudes of life.
And Shade, who looked at the demonic eye... felt nothing.
"What?"
The man holding the knife was stunned for a moment. It was this small mistake that allowed Dr. Schneider to hold the back of his head from behind. The doctor's voice was unusually soft in the ambient sound of raindrops hitting the window, and he pressed the palm of his hand on the back of the enemy's head.
Glowing with black light:
"Go to sleep."
The man holding the knife struggled to look at Shade. His normal right eye kept opening and closing repeatedly, reminding outsiders of his classmates in math class in his hometown. He finally fell asleep, but when he was hugged by the doctor,
The left eye is still open, and the blue eyeball is moving around in the socket. The magic eye does not look like a whole body at all.
The sound of rain covered up the brief fight that took place in the corridor. The doctor neatly placed the man on the floor of the corridor, pulled up his clothes and covered his face. In fact, it was mainly to cover the constantly moving evil eye.
He looked up at the two people:
"Writer, detective, give me twenty minutes and I will go and have a look in his dream."
When I was out on the road, the doctor had told me not to call anyone by their name.
"It takes so long?"
Shade asked, bending down to pick up the dagger in the man's hand. Unfortunately, although this dagger was well made, it was just an ordinary weapon.
"This is a ring warlock. Of course, it will take longer. If smoke starts to come out of my body, it means that his ability to control dreams is stronger than mine. Remember to wake me up."
As he spoke, the doctor pressed his covered head with both hands and kept his body bent motionless, like a perfect wax statue.
No matter how Miss Louisa commented on this scene, Shade found it very strange.
As for the fact that the murderer did not leave, Dr. Schneider deduced it after checking the window sill and found that part of the countertop was not wet, while Shade found new blood stains after getting closer to the window sill.
The man holding the knife may have heard their voices upstairs and knew that one of them could see blood stains. But he certainly did not expect that even if the shoes were thrown out of the window and the knife was washed in the rain, there would be murder on the clothes.
The glued blood stains that are invisible to the naked eye can still be seen.
You know, Sha De can even capture blood stains from a hundred years ago, let alone fresh blood stains.
So, after that, Shade hurriedly left the door, and the doctor followed him carelessly, causing Miss Louisa to be attacked. This was not because the three of them cooperated tacitly, but as they walked, the doctor used his glowing fingers to
I wrote in the air and laid out this plan simply.
The most important part of the plan is that the weakest Shade will not be "killed". Now it seems that their luck is quite good.
"If my guess is correct, the factory owner, Mr. Ponton, must have embezzled the money entrusted to him by [Mercury Blood] for safekeeping, which is why he caused such a disaster tonight."
Seeing that the doctor had fallen asleep smoothly, Miss Louisa stood beside Shade and whispered after she had relaxed. The sound of shoes on the floor could hardly be heard at all.
The sound of rain outside the window became quieter, and the most thrilling part of the rainstorm was over.
"That's what I guessed, otherwise I can't explain the expensive silverware and jewelry. Moreover, Mr. Ponton was checking the accounts before he died. This is also very suspicious. It seems that the murderer forced him to take out all the accounts and check them. But he didn't
To think that ordinary people dare to embezzle the gold pounds of the Ring Warlock Organization..."
Xia De let out a small sigh and felt that this matter was not so incredible:
"Greed always makes people behave irrationally."
"This sentence makes sense, so ring magicians should be more cautious. Oh, Shade, do you still have a water bottle on you? It's probably as big as this."
Miss Louisa gestured again.
"Of course."
He handed the bottle over. The blonde girl shook it and found that it was full, so she handed the bottle back to Shade:
"Take that eye out and put it in a bottle."
"What? Take?"
As Shade asked, he lowered his head and looked down, then put his right hands together and made an unsightly gesture of grabbing downwards:
"How to take it?"
"Yes, insert your fingers into the eye sockets and pull out the eyeballs."
Miss Louisa followed suit and made a grasping motion with the five fingers of her right hand together. She patiently explained to Shade:
"That eye is a magic eye, a type of special [relic]. It seems that the integration of the magic eye with his body is incomplete, so I speculate that it can be easily pulled out. The effect of the eye seems to be useless to you,
That’s why I asked you to do it.”
"Oh well."
Shade knelt down amidst the sound of raindrops hitting the glass, lifted the clothes covering his head, and suddenly saw the blue eyeball in the man's left eye socket spinning around.
In order to learn thaumaturgy, he has done more than one incredible thing in this world. Therefore, although there are still obstacles in his heart, he still reaches out and inserts his hand into the orbit of his left eye, and then "pulls out" the left eye. This action is like
It was even easier for him to turn the gas lights in his home.
The eyeball was extremely slippery. After taking it out, Shade immediately threw it into the bottle. The blue magic eye continued to rotate rapidly after entering the water, but it stopped motionless within ten seconds, and the pupil in the eyeball lost its expression.
, just like "die".
"Can eyes also be relics?"
He then asked, stood up and corked the bottle and handed it to Miss Louisa. The latter shook the bottle vigorously and was relieved when she saw that the eyes inside were really motionless. She handed the bottle back to Shade and asked him to
He took it first.
"Fish scales can be relics, why not eyes?"
Miss Louisa asked back, then smiled:
"Speaking of which, since I promised to be your teacher, I naturally have to take responsibility. Now I will tell you about the knowledge about the magic eyes. First of all, the danger level of all magic eyes is rated, the lowest is the secret keeper level.
(Level 3), because the magic eye needs to be implanted into the human body, it is very easy to lose control. Although I don’t know the function of this eyeball, it is probably of the secret keeper level, and the doctor will be able to ask for detailed information in a while.”
"Is this a secret-keeper-level relic?"
Shade has not forgotten how valuable the last Keeper-level relic he came into contact with [Inferi Bones] was.
"The relics of the Demonic Eyes are rare ones that can be directly transplanted into the Ring Warlock's body, and almost directly enhance the Ring Warlock's relics. Most of the Magic Eyes have strong side effects, but they are also very powerful accordingly. But the Magic Eye's
Transplantation is not like a universal steam engine part that can be plugged in and out at will. It requires complex and precise surgical procedures."
Shade looked at the lying man:
"I think the doctor who performed the surgery on him must not be a good doctor."
Miss Louisa shook her head. Although she was talking to Shade, her eyes were always paying attention to both ends of the corridor and the body lying in the room to prevent other accidents from happening:
"Not everyone can use the magic eye. There is also a concept of adaptability. The Sirksess Medical School, one of the three major schools of thaumaturgy, has published several good papers in the past few years, discussing the magic eye.
The relationship between eye adaptability and the Ring Warlock. I am afraid that this man is not very adaptable to this eye. Forcibly using it will cause the eye itself to seem to be out of control of the body."
The blonde girl was very unladylike. She raised her leg and kicked the lying man. Of course, the force was not strong to prevent disturbing the dreaming doctor:
"After the doctor got enough information, we killed him right here. This kind of person is really terrible..."
Shade understood her thoughts and supported this approach very much. He sniffed the moisture in the air, then raised his eyes and looked out the window of the corridor. There were no pedestrians on the rainy night:
"Of course, murderers must be prepared to be killed. We can't control the financial dispute between Mercury Blood and the Ponton family, but the maid who was killed downstairs was innocent after all."
