"Ugh … My head hurts!"
Yi Rui woke up and found herself lying on a large, soft bed.
Her head was a little groggy, and all she could see were ambiguous lights and a figure standing by the window, looking into the distance.
"This … seems to be a high-class love hotel?"
"Why … Why am I here?"
Fortunately, Yi Rui was a mysterious person and didn't scream like a young girl. She just quickly looked around and herself.
Finding that her clothes were still intact, she couldn't help but sigh in relief.
After that, she started to recall the past.
She remembered the mysterious gathering, and her brain began to connect the dots.
"I saw the mister who saved me, and then I was attacked by ghouls?"
"No, no … Gluttons have the ability to create illusions. Maybe everything I saw was just an illusion … My current situation is still very dangerous …"
"You're awake!"
Fang Xian turned around and looked at Yi Rui. "It's good that you're awake. There should be security officers coming to investigate later. Is there a problem with your identity?"
"No … No!"
Yi Rui pulled the blanket to cover her chest and said hesitantly, "Thank you for saving me again, mister! I'm Yi Rui of the Negus family, I will repay you. "
Now, she was pretty sure that this wasn't an illusion.
"I'm Laye Raphael!"
Fang Xian used the fake identity he had just obtained without hesitation. "Saving you was a simple matter, don't mention it. But if you really want to thank me, give me the complete inheritance of the Warlock Tower, or related clues, and confirm the way to obtain it … "
Yi Rui choked at once.
How could a mere apprentice like her have access to such top-notch mysticism knowledge?
Even her family might not be able to have it.
But he had saved her, twice!
Yi Rui almost cried.
She gritted her teeth and silently held back her tears. She thought carefully. "The Warlock Tower is mostly in the hands of nobles with a long history. It's indeed easier to obtain in the Narnias Empire than elsewhere … I roughly know a few families that have this inheritance, but …"
How could an ordinary outsider obtain such top-notch mysticism knowledge?
Even if she was willing to sell herself, it depended on whether the other party was willing.
"Then … I'm going to the Narnias Empire. You can be my tour guide."
Fang Xian clapped his hands.
At this time, there was a violent knock on the door. "Sheriff, check!"
"Alright, get up and get ready to deal with the sheriff. Remember, you're my 'prey' today. We just met and you've drunk too much …" Fang Xian lowered his voice and went to open the door.
Outside the door, a sheriff looked in. When he saw Yi Rui, a trace of amazement flashed across his face, and he immediately gave Fang Xian an envious look.
…
At night.
The night sky of Deland City was a little hazy tonight.
The bright moon in the sky shone with a faint purple brilliance.
In the city center, on the plaza in front of the Public Security Department, rows of public security officers stood solemnly. At the very front were Jax, Reid, Tobias, and a group of Special Investigations Division agents.
At this moment, their eyes were filled with admiration and excitement as they looked at a middle-aged man in a black uniform.
The middle-aged man was tall and sturdy, with blue eyes and a face as firm as granite. There was a silver badge on his chest, indicating that he had once received a commendation from the king.
He was a [Silver Order] Elite, and he was also one of the higher-ups in the Special Investigations Division. His name was Audis Guinevere.
He looked at the full moon in the sky and said to himself, "Purple moonlight, is the 'King's Feast' finally at its climax? A 'Glutton' died during the day, and they can't stand it anymore? "
"Crack!"
"Clang!"
Behind him, there was a square iron cage that was wrapped in canvas. It seemed like there was a beast inside the cage, and it was constantly attacking the cage.
Audis calmly took off the glove on his right hand.
Under the moonlight, his right hand was reflecting the light, and there were silver metal veins on it. It seemed like it had completely merged with his flesh.
At this moment, as Audis moved his fingers, the canvas of the iron cage behind him was opened, and the body of a 'Glutton' appeared.
It had completely transformed into a 'Ghoul', and there were silver chains on its neck and limbs. Its eyes were red, and it was filled with madness and the desire to attack.
Also, it seemed like its spell-like abilities were restricted, and even ordinary people could not look at it directly.
"The 'King's Feast'. The researchers from the kingdom have analyzed this ritual, and this is just a simplified version. In the end, many of the third stage 'Gluttons' will sense each other's existence, and they will start to kill and devour each other. Only the last one will be able to open the Silver Gate …"
Audis continued to move his fingers, and the 'Glutton' was released from the iron cage.
"Crack!"
"Crack!"
The silver chains on the 'Glutton's' limbs were loosened one by one, and the 'Glutton' regained its freedom.
"Hehe!"
The 'Glutton' made a strange sound, and it was about to rush towards the nearest living person.
"Be quiet!"
At this moment, Audis was dissatisfied. The silver collar on the 'Glutton's' neck was glowing, and it completely suppressed the 'Glutton's' movement.
Also, a chain appeared in the air, and it was connected to Audis's right hand.
From afar, it looked like he was holding a big dog.
"Next … I will completely suppress its intelligence, and it will only have its instincts left, and it will go after the high-ranking ghouls in the city center and the surrounding areas!"
Audis held the chain tightly.
The 'Glutton' roared, and it dashed out like an arrow.
However, no matter how far it ran, the silver chain was still in Audis's hand, and it seemed like there was no limit to its length.
…
In the Osmanthus Hotel.
"So … This' King's Feast 'is not perfect, and there are still a lot of things that we can use …"
After listening to Yi Rui's detailed explanation, Fang Xian thought for a while and said, "Why did the ghouls choose this place? After all, the Kingdom of Senburg is one of the three most powerful countries on the continent, and their brains should not have been eaten … "
"Who knows? But … this group of cultists must have been influenced by something. It's too crazy. "
Yi Rui smiled bitterly after she sent the sheriff away.
"Bang!"
At this moment, a gunshot was heard.
"The purple moon means that the ritual has reached its peak … Special Case Department has started to take action …" She was not surprised to see this scene, and she murmured to herself.
"Then, I will take this opportunity to take action as well. Follow the plan, and wait for me at the train station tomorrow morning! "
Fang Xian's body slowly disappeared, and he blended in with the colors around him like a chameleon.
He just heard from Yi Rui that there were two important members of the Miller family in this city, and they were the ones who were in charge of the acquisition of the Roland family.
