Although I’m not sure where her confidence comes from, she still——
Let’s look at character goals for a moment.
But when I opened this weather-beaten record magic stone and looked at the contents, I couldn't help but frown.
"This guy--"
Is it too public-facing?
"It's hard to find this kind of guy just by simply entering the crowd, isn't it?" I sighed and said, "Compared to that, it's better to give up."
Actually it's more than that.
There is information about this guy...
There are simply too few.
"For now, please ask Vettel to investigate."
But after a few days of calm, Vettel told me some not-so-good news.
This person has been gone for a long time.
I haven't seen him for at least three months.
And other spies all over the city found no trace of him. If he wasn't hiding in one place and didn't go out, then he had left here.
Things seemed to be at an impasse.
Nolan Lusi has also been paying attention to the progress of the investigation these days. Although I always see her walking through the door with her head held high among a group of demon hunters disguised as refugees, but in fact those demon hunters are not at all. Feel nothing.
At most, I'm wondering why someone comes here so often, right?
Hey, that's the ultimate goal of all demon hunters, the Demon King!
Seeing Nolan Lusi look a little proud, maybe she was retaliating for me questioning her ability, right?
Damn it, you are the devil, can you stop being so petty?
I sighed and told her the not so good news.
She raised her eyebrows in surprise and said, "Oh? Disappeared out of thin air? Or just ran away."
"I don't know these things clearly. After all, this incident happened relatively early, and the demon hunter's reaction was too slow."
After listening to my words, Nolan Lusi tapped her chin lightly and said easily: "That's it - since that guy said he has the power of the demon clan, is it possible that he has obtained disguised magic?"
It is indeed possible. After all, magic such as illusion is not too difficult. You only need level 5 to learn simple transfiguration.
but--
"Can a simple transformation technique avoid the detection of so many people?"
Although they are all professionals, transfiguration is not a universal spell.
She leaned on the table and said with a half-smile: "If you gain the power of a demon, then the structure of your body should have changed significantly, and things like your appearance may also have changed in the process."
Nolan Lusi squinted her eyes slightly, not knowing what she was thinking, but her inference instantly opened up my originally closed thoughts.
In this case, just get the most recent check-in list.
Although other small cities may not have such a thing, as an immortal fortress guarding the border of mankind, there must be such a decree.
Thinking of this, I quickly found Vettel and confirmed this matter.
"Registration manual—that kind of thing does exist, but if you have to face a possible disguise master, it probably won't be of much use." Vettel's voice sounded helpless, "Having said that, don't use it casually. It’s a dedicated line. Even if it’s not an emergency right now, the channel is normal, but if something important happens and the channel is occupied, it will be troublesome.”
"This matter... is also very important."
Whether from the perspective of demons or humans, this is a big deal.
"I understand, I understand." Vettel's tone was somewhat disapproving. "To put it bluntly, it would be much easier to tell the Holy See about this kind of thing. Unfortunately, our current situation is really special and we can only digest it internally."
It seems that the clue is broken.
I couldn't help but sigh.
"But if it's about the demon clan -" the sound of rummaging through papers came from Vitel's side, "here is a case that may interest you."
"Just a few days ago, we found a dead witcher in the sewers, and he died not long ago."
Wait a minute, if the witcher is also hunting that guy, maybe——
"Are there any clues about the murderer?"
Vettel's voice became a little more subtle.
"Clues? How can there be such a thing? Several people have been compensated for this matter." There seemed to be a sense of fatigue in his voice, "Although I am the person who manages intelligence, most of my subordinates are actually generals. The big men brought from the army are completely unable to do such detailed work as intelligence, so they can only find some guys from the market, and those people are not very strong. People who investigate along this line They are all dead, and I am now preparing to report to the General to dispatch professionals to deal with this matter specifically."
"The one who can kill the witcher is no simple guy."
And - very familiar.
Where does this feeling come from?
Turning his head, he saw Nolan Lusi's curious eyes.
"But since you want to intervene, I'll leave this matter to you for the time being." Vittle chuckled, "There are many demon hunters coming to your village, right? If you are not planning to attack the Demon King's Castle, then I came here for something else. I heard from the people in the market that the boss here is not simple. Looking at it now, he must have been entrusted with something by the demon hunter."
"this······"
"It's a good thing that the road is wide, and I can relax a lot." Vettel chuckled, "In my profession, you have to know everyone, and you have to 'walk among thousands of flowers, and not a single leaf touches you', so I know everyone." It’s actually good for people to be able to do this kind of thing.”
His metaphor made me have the urge to follow the magic path and beat people up.
But judging from my current position, I can only warn you that "don't explore things you don't need to know"... which can mislead others.
As long as my first-level identity is known to others, consciously or unconsciously, the strange things I do will also be understood as what the first-level identity requires.
After getting a fairly official status from Vettel, I suddenly realized something else.
The origin of Nolan Lusi, how to solve it?
Although from an experience point of view, it was not unexpected that I invited her to investigate together, but the only people who knew the inside story at the time in the Immortal Fortress were actually Kyle Rath and me.
Then, I told Nolan Lusi about it.
She said with some regret that it seemed that was the only way she could use it.
Just when I was puzzled about what that move was, I suddenly felt so blessed that I looked up with Nolan Russ at the person next to me who was eating melon spit...a certain Kyle Russ.
