Mystery: Start with the Reader

Abner is very familiar with the monsters created by the 'Werewolves'. After all, Hugh was attacked by similar things before, so he recognized them at a glance.

The owner of this ruin is a "werewolf"? The Extraordinary characteristics left behind after his death became a sealed item, so many monsters were created?

While guessing in his mind, Abner extracted the breath from the monster without hesitation, and used "scene backtracking".

Soon, a series of pictures appeared in front of his eyes:

In the dark basement, a sarcophagus that was obviously sealed by ritual magic burst open. Immediately afterwards, a man over two meters tall with black spots all over his body stood up.

His movements were a little slow at first. It's stiff, but it's smoother in no time. But what is disturbing is that this man actually walked in the direction of Shimen step by step in a backward manner.

Then, the man stretched out his arm and pushed open the stone door with the back of his hand, and then strode into the corridor with his hind legs, heading towards the stairs. A row of brand new footprints were left on the road.

In general, walking backwards, while not normal, is not surprising. The reason why I say "disturbing" is because the man's walking is so natural and smooth, it feels like "people should walk like this"!

Abner immediately judged that the body of the baron, who had been dead for an unknown amount of time, hadn't rotted because of the weird black spot, and was now possessed by something unknown...

Yes, that way of walking is definitely not a human, and it will never be an extraordinary existence that is promoted step by step by a human through "magic medicine".

And Abner already had a rough guess in his mind at this moment, that is:

"1-025!"

The reason why he guessed this way is because he has seen the origin of those monsters in the backtracking. They were just small animals living in this underground ruins, and they suddenly appeared after being contaminated by the breath left by the man along the way. Change, become a monster.

Just relying on the escaping breath can achieve an effect similar to the toxicity of the "werewolf". The thing possessed by the black-spotted Baron is at least at the level of a demigod, and it is probably not human...

So, on the whole, the suspicion of "1-025" is undoubtedly the biggest!

The only good news is that the baron possessed by "1-025" should have left this ruin long ago. It was because he dug a passage to the ground that Miss Fanny stumbled upon the entrance afterwards.

From this point of view, the storm that lasted for two days last Friday night may have been caused by several forces competing for this sealed item... After all, it is entirely possible for demigods to change the weather!

And "1-025" probably took advantage of the melee between the demigods and abandoned the lodging thing again, and quietly possessed the baron's body in the underground ruins.

Abner originally wanted to trace back more scenes with the help of the man's escaping breath, but as more and more monsters flew out from behind the door, the two ladies were already in danger. , I'm afraid they have to collect their bodies.

Although he has no friendship with them, just like Abner's previous analysis of his temperament, he has no great love and will not deliberately help strangers, but if someone happens to be in danger and he has the ability to deal with it, he will not Mind lending a helping hand.

...

Seeing more and more monsters rushing out from behind the stone gate, Fanny fell into deep regret while controlling the three mechanical dolls to shoot.

Why should I blindly shoot the "Bright Flame" shells on the mechanical doll that are enough to be used as a hole card?

I should have used one as a bait to lure those monsters to one place, and then bombard them with shells. This time is a good way to effectively destroy them...

Why was I so arrogant at the time that I felt that under the bombardment of the mechanical puppet, no matter what was behind the door, it would be wiped out?

Frustration and regret instantly surrounded her, making Miss Fanny slightly distracted.

But before she could adjust her emotions, a monster that seemed to be alienated from a snake took the opportunity to break through the crossfire of the three mechanical dolls, opened its mouth and bit Fanny's neck.

Just as it was about to approach, Fanny's figure suddenly disappeared, and in an instant she appeared in front of Miss Emma stretching out from behind. At the moment, the latter is wielding a dagger and trying to force back a sneak attack that looks like a rat monster.

At the same time, the necklace on Fanny's neck suddenly turned into dust and dissipated in the surrounding dust.

Although she escaped with her life, the precious life-saving items were also used up.

Boom!

Immediately afterwards, a huge roar sounded.

Because of the temporary loss of control, one of the three mechanical dolls was immediately torn apart by a monster with its sharp claws, but its martyrdom before it was destroyed was to blow up this calf-like monster to pieces, which was considered a victory for the war. The only result to come.

However, the loss of a mechanical doll was even more unfavorable to Fanny and Emma. In the blink of an eye, three or four monsters broke through the fire and rushed towards them.

Although Fanny had already raised her revolver and tried her best to shoot, the demon hunting bullets she fired seemed to be very ineffective against the monsters. They could hardly break through the fur of the monsters. In terms of damage, it was even worse than the dagger in her friend's hand.

Seeing a monster flying towards her, and she had exhausted all means but was still powerless, Fanny could only close her eyes and wait for death, while thinking regretfully in her heart:

"Grandpa, farewell...

"Emma, ​​it's my arrogance that hurt you..."

However, she waited and waited, but she still didn't feel the pain. Instead, the roaring monsters seemed to be whining in pain.

what happened?

Fanny opened her eyes, and she was surprised to see dozens of golden and black flames floating in the air, and they bombarded the monsters in the corridor continuously like shells.

And under those flames, stood a man wearing copper-rimmed glasses, who was the famous "heroic detective".

"This is... saved?" Fanny said to herself in surprise.

"I'm saved!" Seeing this scene, Emma agreed, and at the same time took back something that her mother had quietly given her.

At this moment, Abner was manipulating the flame attack, turned his head to Fanny and said, "Did you take something from the ruins?"

Fanny was a little confused by the question, but she also knew that the question asked by the other party at this time must be very important, so after thinking for a while, she took out a notebook.

This is exactly the note recorded in an unknown language that she put away in the study just now and is about to go back and find someone to interpret it.

"Throw it away first! You have been 'bribed', so the choices you make are so arrogant, so the attacks you make are ineffective."
