After leaving the teahouse, Dr. Görs successfully followed behind Mayfair because of the Invisibility Scroll. It had to be said that the Invisibility Scroll was indeed a great tracking tool. Mayfair didn't find anything along the way and quickly walked through the village.
Soon, Mayfair came to a house guarded by guards.
This was the place where the sacrificial candidate had to stay before the ceremony began. That was the place where Qiao Lina, who temporarily replaced Murphy as the sacrificial candidate, bathed and dressed up. The elderly nannies in the village were responsible for the whole city and prohibited any male from approaching.
At this time, Mayfair quietly knocked out an old nanny and put on her clothes. She lowered her head and quickly mixed into the house, becoming one of the nannies who groomed the sacrificial candidate.
Dr. Görs had been watching coldly from the side.
If he guessed correctly, before coming back this time, Mayfair should have sneaked in here after disappearing from the teahouse and planned to exchange himself with Qiao Lina. When Dr. Görs died, besides Qiao Lina, he saw Mayfair wearing sacrificial clothing on the ground. It was the best proof.
And this time, Mayfair sneaked into the house under his surveillance. It was already the best proof. So, was the murderer already here at this time?
Last time, the murderer might have found out that Mayfair wanted to exchange Qiao Lina, so he secretly manipulated Mayfair to make sure that the one he confessed to last time at the ceremony was still Qiao Lina, and not Mayfair as he guessed.
"Come on, the guy who killed me. This time I will definitely catch your fox tail …"
But at this time, what Dr. Görs didn't expect was that after Mayfair pretended to be an old nanny and stayed in the house for a while, she quietly left here … and quickly left the village.
At this time, the sky was not dark yet. There was still a short time before the ceremony began in the evening.
"What's going on … Where is she going?"
Dr. Görs found that things were far from what he thought. He had no choice but to continue following … At this time, he found that Mayfair was going to the temple on the mountain!
…
…
Going to the temple was not on the road of the trial-takers, but on the continent … Dr. Görs found that Mayfair's speed was unusually fast. He almost couldn't catch up with her.
By the time Mephistopheles officially ascended the main gate of the temple on the mountain, Dr. Gerles was already panting heavily. What surprised him was that when Mephistopheles stood at the main gate of the temple, the guards did not stop her when they saw her.
Not only did they not stop her, but they even respectfully called her, "Vice-captain."
At this time, seeing Mayfair walk directly into the temple, Dr. Görs' mind was in a mess … If Mayfair was the vice-captain, wasn't she the one he met when he was directly killed by [Mr. Varley] in the temple for the first time?
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Dr. Görs' mind. He looked back at the sky that was about to darken and suddenly shivered. He quickly bypassed the gate of the temple and hurriedly went to the back of the temple.
He quickly came to this place … Dr. Görs found that in so many backtracking processes, he had never come here in person.
But he knew what would happen here — this was what he learned from Boss Luo.
Captain Malik would be here. In order to provide for the monster goddess in the inner hall of the temple, he would quietly kill a guard of the temple.
…
…
Ah —!
After a stifled scream, the guard of the temple died tragically at the hands of Captain Malik. He dragged the dead guard away, and then quickly walked in through the back door of the temple.
Dr. Görs was standing here openly at this time. Because of the invisibility scroll, he saw everything clearly — this was indeed the same as the information provided by Luoqiu.
But that time, Luoqiu and Mayfair should have seen it while hiding behind the totem pole — but this time, there shouldn't be anyone behind the totem pole.
Because they didn't take the road of trial this time.
"So, Captain Malik put on the black armor after killing the guard and went down the mountain as the oracle to supervise the ceremony …" Dr. Görs muttered at this time, "It seems that the time matches. But it doesn't mean anything … Eh? "
The doctor was startled at this time. He saw a figure quietly walking out of the totem pole at this time.
Her face was pale with anger and hatred … She even trembled because of fear.
"Mayfair … is also Mayfair?" Dr. Görs looked at this scene in a daze. At this time, Mayfair walked out from behind the totem pole and finally chose to open the back door of the temple while hesitating. Dr. Görs still couldn't recover from the shock.
"What's going on? There is also a Mayfair here … Are there two Mayfair at the same time?" Dr. Görs was startled, and without thinking, he chased after Mayfair who saw Captain Malik kill the guard.
He didn't need to deliberately hide himself because of the power of the scroll … Dr. Görs easily followed behind Mayfair at this time — until they reached the door of the inner temple.
Dr. Görs at this time saw with his own eyes how Captain Malik was scolded and even beaten out of the inner temple and hit the wall after sending the dead guard into the inner temple. Then, how he found Mayfair who was hiding on the door and saw this time.
Captain Malik didn't expose Mayfair who was hiding here, and even signaled her to leave with him.
They went all the way to the baptism room in silence … But they didn't know that there was an invisible figure following them silently along the way.
…
In the baptism room.
"I heard that you secretly escaped earlier today." Captain Malik frowned and suddenly said, "Since you have already escaped, why did you come back?"
"I'm back, isn't that what you want?" At this moment, Mayfair sneered and said, "Otherwise, where would you go to find another living sacrifice and deliver it to the gods … to that monster? A living one, right? "
At this moment, Captain Malik drew his sword and directly attacked Mephistopheles. Mephistopheles was no match for Captain Malik and was knocked unconscious. Then, Captain Malik brought Mephistopheles into his room and trapped him on the stone bed.
Dr. Görs had been in this room all this time … He looked at Captain Malik who was absent-mindedly looking at the coffin made of luminous stone in the corner. He wanted to open the coffin several times to take a look, but he restrained himself.
Until Captain Malik stood up and left the room again — Dr. Görs speculated that it might be time, so Captain Malik was preparing to incarnate as an Oracle and appear at the celebration.
The door had been locked, and it seemed that it couldn't be opened from the inside … Dr. Görs tried several times and temporarily gave up the idea of opening the door.
He came before the stone bed and looked at the unconscious Mayfair. He muttered to himself for a long time.
He still couldn't sort out his thoughts at this time.
This made Dr. Görs a little irritable … He walked impatiently in the room and unconsciously came to the front of the coffin made of luminous stone.
He didn't know what was special about this luminous stone coffin that could make Captain Malik so fascinated, so he couldn't help but reach out to open it.
Click —!
The door was unlocked.
Dr. Görs was startled subconsciously, but thinking that he was still invisible at this time, he subconsciously calmed down. But soon, Dr. Görs was not calm anymore.
Who did he see come in through the door?
He actually saw the leader of his own follower team … Luoqiu!
This guy really opened the door with the key … he didn't lie?
…
…
When Boss Luo opened the door of Captain Malik's room with the key and walked in, Dr. Görs subconsciously shuddered — Why Luoqiu appeared here, Dr. Görs seemed to have a thousand questions in his mind.
But when he thought that Boss Luo couldn't see him at this time, Dr. Görs narrowed his eyes and moved quietly. He raised his left middle finger to Boss Luo with a sneer on his face and went around to the back of Boss Luo.
— You didn't expect it, right? I'm behind you!
— You lied to me once … twice, you should at least give me some interest, right?
— You guessed right, I can stab people in the back!
No … this guy has the Sacred Suit!
Dr. Görs couldn't help but stop the dagger that was about to be pushed out … So desperate, the opportunity to stab someone in the back was right in front of him.
"By the way, Mr. Görs, did you find anything?"
At this time, Boss Luo suddenly opened his mouth.
Dr. Görs was stunned at first, then he exclaimed, "You can see me?!"
"Yes, I saw you when I came in." Boss Luo turned around at this time and smiled slightly.
"How can you see me! I'm not invisible?! "
"You mean the invisibility scroll?" Boss Luo said casually, "It has a time limit … don't you know?"
What the f * ck —!
It must be that when I was thinking irritably, I unconsciously … I didn't care about it and thought that the invisibility effect was still there, so … Backstab!
The doctor had a rather stiff smile on his face at this time. After swallowing his saliva, he picked up his dagger, "If I say that I'm actually joking with you … you'll believe me."
"Mr. Görs, you seem to be in a good mood." Boss Luo smiled as if he didn't care about this matter, "By the way, doctor, did you find anything new on your way here?"
Dr. Görs looked at Boss Luo in surprise, then he calmed down, "Yes, I found two Mayfair. The one I followed in the tea house all the way up the mountain and then into the temple … She is indeed the vice-captain of the temple. I saw the guard respectfully salute her with my own eyes, so I can't be wrong. As for the one lying on the bed now … to be honest, I can't explain it, but one thing is for sure, there are indeed two different Mayfair here! This doesn't make sense. At the beginning of [Today], the Mayfair we saved in the forest was the one I followed all the way up the mountain … However, according to the situation when we first walked the path of the trial taker, the Mayfair at that time should be the one I found at the back door of the temple … the one lying here. Unless … "
"Mr. Görs seems to have thought of something." Boss Luo smiled slightly.
Dr. Görs suddenly raised his head, "Unless there are indeed two Mayfair … there are two Mayfair who can backtrack time! We are actually constantly jumping between the two Mayfairs that have been turned back in time! No, no, no, no … this doesn't make sense. If there are two different Mayfair who can backtrack time, they can't appear at the same time … what's wrong? I must have overlooked something, what exactly is it … "
Boss Luo walked to the side of the stone bed and looked at the sleeping Elf Girl. He suddenly said, "Mr. Görs, do you remember what you discovered when you first walked the path of the trial taker?"
"Discovered … what did we discover?" Dr. Görs frowned and said subconsciously, "The problem of the third level — no! It's the trace left by Geralt! I understand now! "
Dr. Görs patted his head and hurriedly walked forward, "The path of the trial taker! This path may allow the first Mayfair who escaped as a sacrifice to enter the time of the second Mayfair who is the vice-captain of the temple guards! When we walked the path of the trial taker for the first time, we came to the time of the second vice-captain Mayfair. Then we backtracked and jumped directly to the time of the second vice-captain Mayfair. But this time, the first Mayfair will definitely walk the path of the trial taker and come to the time of the second Mayfair … No, it's still not right. Logically speaking, we didn't walk the path of the trial taker for the third time, so we shouldn't appear in the time of the second Mayfair. If that's the case, then she wouldn't have walked the path of the trial taker … In other words, in the previous [Today], Mayfair shouldn't have discovered that Captain Malik killed his companion, but … "
"But what?"
"But we still went back in time." Doctor Gilles thought about it and said, "We've returned to the original starting point, but we've switched to the second vice-captain Mayfair's time reversal … From the looks of it, our hypothesis of jumping back and forth between two different Mayfairs should be correct … But last time, today, the first Mayfair didn't enter the temple … He didn't enter the temple, he didn't enter the temple … If he didn't enter the temple, the first Mayfair wouldn't have died in the hands of Mr. Varley. However … "
"And then she died, didn't she?"
"Yes, she's still dead … but who killed her? Who's the murderer?"
"The murderer is the second Mayfair." Boss Luo said slowly, "After we cut off your head, Mr. Görs, we will kill Mayfair, who is wearing the sacrificial costume. That will be the second vice-captain, Mayfair."
"How do you know?" Dr. Görs asked subconsciously.
Boss Luo blinked, "Because I saw it with my own eyes."
"Oh … so that's how it is." Dr. Görs nodded and immediately said angrily, "You just watched as I was killed?!"
How could he do that?!
