Somewhere in the Holy City, in a luxuriously decorated French-style mansion.
A stone statue placed in a certain study room suddenly came to life … Crackle! As small stones fell to the ground, a gray stone foot stepped on the ground.
It had just completed the transfer.
The [Secret Stone Man] knelt on one knee.
"Sir, the matter of transporting cement might have been exposed … There are two special trainee knights who have obtained information about the cement. They will most likely continue to investigate."
In front of the desk, the mysterious man crossed his fingers in front of his chest.
"Special?"
"They have a special trait similar to my pollution. They instantly killed the 'stone' I controlled … Also, one of them has the sensing ability to detect and find the 'stone.'"
"Trainee knights with attributes from outside the city. Have you memorized their faces?"
"There are elements of disguise in it. Their appearance is not very useful … I came to you this time to ask for your approval.
I plan to completely eliminate the 'risk'. After all, it will take a few days to complete the project.
If they continue to investigate and discover the 'project', it will be troublesome. "
"Okay … Go quickly.
In addition, if these two apprentice knights were not very strong, he would try his best to capture them alive.
I am very interested in these two trainee knights who have connections with the outside world. "
"Yes."
The [Secret Stone Man] turned back into a normal stone statue in the study room and his consciousness left.
The mysterious man slowly stood up and walked to the window.
Standing at the window, he could see half of the civilian area … If he zoomed out, he would find that the French-style mansion was completely enveloped in a camouflage barrier.
Some crows could only perch outside the mansion as if they were monitoring the situation here.
If the crows stayed for more than a minute, they would be shot down by the guards with their guns.
"Due to my interference, the knight regiment's investigation is limited. Together with the hidden attribute of this Hybrid Demon … The knight regiment will not be able to find anything for at least two weeks.
I didn't expect that the two trainee knights would find out about the 'cement'. How interesting.
It seemed that he had to be prepared to give up his chess piece … After all, this was just an experiment. From the current experiment, the [Loophole] of the Holy City was extraordinarily big.
As long as they did not cause too much of a commotion and used their authority to interfere, the investigation of the knights would be greatly hindered.
Let's take it slow. When the Great Expedition arrives and all the big shots leave the city for battle, that will be the time for me to make my move … Moreover, the two brats who appeared in this incident are very interesting.
'They' might be useful to me.
The only problem is that crow in the Holy City … Otherwise, I could personally go and catch those two brats and bring them back. "
…
Han Dong had already relayed the information about the stones to all the members of the team.
Subsequently.
Abel and Cass were in the same group.
Mia and Wen Li were in the same group.
Knight Wino was in a group alone. She began to contact the secret organization in the civilian area and used all kinds of forceful methods to obtain the cement delivery point.
Once they had gathered enough information, they would gather at this underground tavern.
While waiting for everyone to gather information.
Han Dong and Demps had different information … According to the markings on the map, they arrived at the location where the underground tavern would transport cement.
It was located in a densely built civilian residential area.
Han Dong inspected the civilians nearby with his eyes and found that there were no signs of 'stones' in their bodies.
A copper coin was stuffed into the hands of an old man who looked more intelligent and had lived here for a long time.
"Old man, someone should have transported cement here recently, right?"
The old man who received the copper coin was naturally very cooperative.
"Yes, someone sent several large boxes of cement here yesterday … Soon, workers arrived at the scene. However, their behavior was very strange. "
"Strange in what way?"
"They tore down some stone walls that did not need to be repaired and then replaced them with brand new cement … It looked no different from before."
"Can you take us to the repaired stone walls?"
"Of course … If the two of you are rich, it would be even better if you could give this old man some more benefits. My wife is sick, and I have to rely on myself to pick up garbage outside for a living. "
A copper coin was handed over.
The old man immediately felt no pain in his back and took Han Dong and Winnie to the stone wall area where the construction work was done yesterday.
"This is it."
"Is there any other information that you feel is not right to report?" Han Dong took out another copper coin.
"This …" The old man thought for a long time and really could not think of anything. He stared at the copper coin with a greedy face.
"If there is nothing else, please leave. You have not seen us today."
Demps was proficient in all kinds of spells, including the rare illusion, and knew a thing or two … It was easy for such an ordinary person to work.
After the old man left, Demps turned to look at Han Dong who was already carefully observing the stone wall.
"Did you find anything?"
"The stone wall seems to be used to isolate the inside and outside of the building … In fact, there is no need for it to exist. Why tear down the originally intact wall and build a new one?
The answer is in this new wall. "
Han Dong used the plague dagger in his hand to cut a hole in the stone wall.
It could be seen that there was something else mixed in the cement wall. Dense cobblestones were embedded in the inside.
"When they mixed the cement, they added these small stones … If I'm not wrong, these small stones should be the same type of stone that lives in the human body."
Han Dong used his left arm to grab a cobblestone inside and squeezed it slightly.
Hiss!
Immediately, a mouth with round teeth grew on the surface of the cobblestone, trying to bite Han Dong.
However.
The next second, the stone immediately turned into gravel and scattered with the wind.
"This …" Demps's face also became ugly, "If the entire civilian area is filled with such stone walls … the consequences will be unimaginable."
Han Dong added, "If the filling of these stone walls still follows a certain pattern, or can continue to multiply, the Holy City may be in chaos because of this.
We have to quickly collect information and confirm the connection between the different cement points. "
Just as Han Dong was trying to contact his teammates with the clockwork device to ask about the progress.
Beep beep beep …
The internal magic circle of the clockwork watch failed.
All of a sudden.
On the stone wall that the two of them were investigating, a large number of hollow and desperate faces were suddenly reflected, and gravel was constantly overflowing from the facial features of these faces.
Such a scene could cause great visual pollution to creatures.
But Han Dong and Demps were not affected.
"Sure enough … we are the same kind."
A heavy voice came from behind the two of them.
With his excellent visual ability, Han Dong had already retreated at the first moment.
And Demps was half a beat slower because his attention was attracted by the horrible faces on the stone wall.
His body was hit from the side.
Crack!
The magic shield was directly shattered, and his body flew more than ten meters away, with the sound of various bones breaking.
