Chapter 191 Worthy of being a Trier

"...Deacon Ikanser, tell me the truth, did you kill the craftswoman over there?" After listening to Klein's report, Old Blue immediately turned to look at the messy-haired deacon of the Steam Church.

"Ah! Uh, no! Absolutely not! It wasn't me! I didn't arrest anyone! It wasn't me who reported it!" Ikanser was still quibbling, but the silver mirror in front of him was emitting a faint light, and a bloody word in Hermetic language appeared on the mirror:
"lie!"

"..." Ikanser looked at the silver mirror as if he had seen a ghost. He clearly did not stroke the mirror three times, nor did he shout "Respected Arrodes"!? Arrodes actually woke up automatically? He immediately tensed his expression and said:
"Everyone, something seems to have gone wrong with 2-111. I need to rush back to the church immediately..."

Old Bruce put on a look of disappointment and said:

"Ikanser, Ikanser, aren't you holding the team back?
"You're using the excuse that there's something wrong with the seal to evade us... You said at the beginning that 'Arrodes' has the characteristics of being alive, and he can communicate with us. The quiz game is proof of this.

“He usually ignores you because he just doesn’t want to pay attention to you… I think your church must have studied this thoroughly, right?
"Tell me, what happened to that 'craftsman'? Is he someone from within your church?"

Klein and Fors realized that their purchase of weapons last time had exposed the existence of the "craftsman," and then Deacon Ikanser had taken action! This... felt a little guilty... They also looked at Ikanser, waiting for an answer.

Xio stroked the three-edged spike hanging on his lower back and was also concerned about the answer.

Conse's expression became more serious. He suspected that someone from the Church of Steam was selling some weapons privately to earn gold pounds... In fact, this behavior is very common in major organizations. The most common thing the military does is to take out "scrapped" firearms and sell them to "people in need". Of course, the people who do this don't actually make much money. Just managing relationships takes away most of the profits...

"Hiss... This... I really can't say it..." Ikanser was still very resistant. Saying it out loud would bring shame to the Steam Church!

At this time, the surface of Xiduo's silver mirror glowed again, and blood-red words were outlined one by one:
"Horamic Haydn has a granddaughter named Leila Haydn, a Sequence 6 'Craftsman'. Her lover is also a woman named..."

“Ahhh!” Ikanser couldn’t stand it anymore and immediately blocked the silver mirror with his body, forcing a straight face and saying:

"No! You didn't see anything!"

Hiss! Old Blue and the others all took a deep breath at the same time. Old Blue said with a complicated expression:

"As expected of you, you are from Intis, and you are the Church of Steam with its headquarters in Trier... Your philosophy is truly ahead of the times..."

Klein was amazed and nodded in agreement. Deacon Ikanser really liked Deacon Roy of Storm, and now the granddaughter of Archbishop Horamick...

It seems that Ikanser reported it to the archbishop, who discovered that his granddaughter was "sell extraordinary weapons"... Uh, the lady who wanted to buy the "barbarian" was her lover? No wonder she would exchange it for a Sequence 8 formula regardless of the cost...

Did the other party not get the potion formula from the Steam Church in order to avoid being known by the Archbishop? Hiss, why do I feel that gentleman has known about this for a long time...

Klein didn't think that the "scalping" behavior that lasted for so long could be hidden from a "generalist" demigod. How could someone with a low IQ reach Sequence 4 through this path? What a joke...

"...This isn't something to be ashamed of, is it that serious?" Fors had read many novels with similar themes and was familiar with this kind of relationship. She looked at Ikanser, who had a strong reaction, and pouted.

"Yes, it is recorded in the canon of the goddess that both men and women should have the right to choose their own love! Uh, don't you think so, Klein?" After Xio finished speaking, he remembered that he had become a storm believer now, and hurriedly pushed it to the only believer of the goddess of night here.

“…” Klein didn’t say anything. The right to choose love… is this what he meant?
Kang Si explained:
"This is actually related to the Archbishop. He is a well-known public figure, and his family will be held to higher standards..."

"No, stop talking! This has never happened! Promise me that you won't tell anyone!" Ikanser put away the "talking nonsense" silver mirror and said to the team members with an earnest expression.

"Okay, that's it..." Old Blue shook his head and said with a smile, "Klein, do you have anything else special?"

"Others... well, in order to perfect the identity of 'pharmacist', I accepted a commission to 'clear the beasts in the sewer'. Well, there shouldn't be anything else besides that." Klein added.

As for the "malicious man"'s request to meet and trade, he had already told Fors that he needed to communicate with Old Blue in private. Because Old Blue himself should not have the ability of the "Sun" high sequence! That is the golden finger of the descendants of the time traveler! And this thing is not suitable for everyone to know publicly.

Fors looked confused, but she knew it clearly. Old Blue was special, and so was Klein! They were definitely not as simple as they appeared! Hmm! A woman's intuition! She nodded and agreed with what Klein said:

“Yes, Klein and I did a good job disguising our identities, and the party members over there were not very wary of us.

"But the beast in the sewer? Is it a rat? A rat that eats the herbs?"

Oh my god! Old Blue was shocked. He thought it was another day of slacking off. Who could have thought that the "salted fish" combination of Klein and Fors would actually be close to the main plot?

Old Blue had promised Klein that he would deal with Lanevus as soon as possible... So he tried his best to disperse everyone and put them in a safe party, and he and Ikanser went to Mr. A's party to scout the location...

That's right, his plan was simple and crude. He just had to disrupt Mr. A's party, search Mr. A's memory directly, and then follow the clues to kill the scammer.

But he couldn't act rashly. He seemed to be in a daze at the party, but in fact he was desperately sensing the possible strong enemy...

Mr. A was in charge of the Aurora Club branch in Backlund, but there was also a "Dark Saint" hiding in the dark. He was a Sequence 4 "Black Knight", a real demigod! He might not be stationed in Backlund all the time, but he often appeared here.

When Hermann assassinated Mr. X, the demigod arrived almost instantly, and he seemed to be near the gathering place.

There is actually a way to solve this problem, but the biggest problem is... "Big Snake" Ouroboros.

The biggest reason why Old Blue didn't act rashly was because he was afraid that he would be "restarted" as soon as he started... This is very likely. The big snake has been chasing the small snake, and the small snake is in Backlund. It is also reasonable for the big snake to chase him...

But He will eventually leave. When the fate fluctuation event created by the "Dice of Probability" outside lures the snake away, it's time to take action! Kill Mr. A who is obsessed with looks!

This was Old Blue’s original plan. Of course, the subsequent usurpation of the throne by “Black Snake” is also possible.

Now Klein brought news about the "sewer beast" that Lanevus created with contaminated blood...

Then things become simple. It is not certain where Lanevus was placed before, but after the "sewer bloodletting" incident, he would be hidden in the Workers' Association in the dock area!
If we can catch the beast, we can follow this clue directly to find the scammer without alerting Mr. A!

Old Blue smiled and said to Klein and Fors who were commissioned:
“I often hear people say that Backlund’s sewer system is extremely developed, comparable to the plazas in the southern continent.

"I'm going to go and see it this time. Fors and Xio shouldn't go. I think no matter how clean the sewer is...it's not suitable for ladies to go there.

"Cons, Klein, Deacon Ikanser, let's go. I always feel that the word 'beast'... is not right. Perhaps we have really found a key clue."
