The lead bullet hit the tree trunk, splashing a wisp of wood chips.

In sight, the tall figure disappeared into the shadow.

"Damn it!"

The killer hiding behind a building cursed.

Not far away, another masked man urged:

"Hurry to find him, and it will be resolved within thirty seconds. The nearby patrol guards will arrive soon!"

"knew!"

The killer replied impatiently, and as soon as he was about to change his position, the head that was poked out was caught by a big hand.

Bang!

The power in the big hand was extremely powerful, and the man found that he could not break free.

He raised his eyes and looked at him, and the target who was commissioned to assassination looked at him expressionlessly. The other party's face was hidden in the backlight, leaving only a pair of cold vertical pupils!

The killer made a quick decision and pulled out the short dagger from his waist and stabbed Chen Lun in the abdomen.

bite!

The imaginary touch did not come, and the killer's face changed drastically.

The sharp dagger seemed to hit the steel plate, making a crisp sound. The fleeting dark gold luster was the last color left in his sight.

Chen Lun grabbed his head and pushed, retracted, and closed his five fingers closed and pecked his throat.

The blood-stained fingers wiped the killer's collar, turned around and walked towards the other side.

thump!

The killer just fell to the ground with his neck covered.

【Kill Black Knife Brotherhood members and get 50 experience points】

"Brother Black Knife...? Who is buying my life?"

Chen Lun sneered.

The Black Knife Brotherhood is a notorious killer organization, similar to the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce, but their business is all about human life.

Chen Lun walked to the end of the alley, and there were narrow aisles leading to the other two streets on both sides, but he did not see any other suspicious figures.

"Run away? You're lucky..."

Chen Lun said to himself.

He sorted out his hat and turned around and left.

When the footsteps went away, a black-clothed killer lying on the wall breathed a sigh of relief.

He jumped down from the wall and rolled on the ground to relieve his strength.

He raised his head and prepared to retreat, but suddenly his hair stood up because he heard a voice sounding in his ear:

"What a donkey rolling around."

He turned his head to look at the assassination target was standing quietly beside him, looking at him with a smile.

"die!"

The killer was about to shoot the gun, but felt a pain in his wrist.

Chen Lun kicked his hand that reached into his arms, grabbed his neck, and picked it up like a chicken.

"Who wants to buy my life?"

The [Simon Song] on his chest lit up a slight light, trying to hypnotize the killer.

Unexpectedly, the killer's body slit, and then black blood flowed through his seven orifices and died on the spot.

"I know the contract of [Conspiracy Faction]..."

Chen Lun threw the killer's body on the ground and curled his lips in disgrace.

[Trigger C-level task: cloudy]

[Task Description: You seem to be involved in a conspiracy!

Someone has launched a series of killings against Viscount Pompeii, and you accidentally touched the interests of some people!

Find out the mastermind behind the scenes and kill the conspiracy and tricks invisibly!]

[Quest Reward: 1500 Experience Points, 2 Gold Pounds, Pompeii's Favorites and [Low Sequence Flesh Faction Mysterious Book] *1]

"Look for nothing!"

Chen Lun took over the mission, but was not ready to find any mastermind behind it.

Although I am envious of the [Flesh Faction] sequence path in the mission reward, I have more important things to be busy with, and I am neither too lazy to care about it.

The task has no time limit, so let's put it aside first.

The condition for failure is mostly the death of Viscount Pompeii, but Chen Lun stays in the manor for most of the time every day, and he dares to kill one if he dares to come.

Baron Barney flashed in his mind, and it was probably related to this guy.

"Come on, I'm worried that I won't catch you."

...

The next day, Chen Lun arrived at Pompeii Manor early.

While Rebecca was still resting, he slipped to the study and read a book.

The yellow book containing the extraordinary knowledge of [Natural Faction] is very thin, and Chen Lun spent two hours pushing the progress.

【By careful reading, you have obtained 450 experience points】

[The mysterious book of the natural faction "On Survival Instinct" (100% progress) has been read through!]

【You have obtained 1 skill point and 1 attribute point】

"No needle!"

Chen Lun gave himself a thumbs up, then put the yellow book into his pocket, preparing to take it home after get off work.

He was planning to find the next "treasure" in the study, but suddenly he was disturbed.

My old friend Binoz knocked on the door and tactfully reminded him to go down for a meal. Today's class was scheduled in the afternoon, and it was lunch time now.

At lunch.

Chen Lun and Viscount talked about the Pompeii family and asked indirectly about some news.

Originally, he just wanted to know some history about the past, but accidentally learned that Viscount Pompeii had an adopted son.

"Vigrie is the son of my comrade-in-arms. The 'Overseas Landing War' that once was quite tragic, my comrade-in-arms sleeps forever on that island...

His wife later remarried and left only Vigrey, so I adopted him.”

Viscount Pompeii sighed and said with emotion while drinking:

"Vigrie is very much like his father, devoted himself to the empire, and has been participating in the war abroad until now, and rarely comes back."

During this period, he also asked Butler Binoz to bring the photo album and gave Chen Lun a look.

It was a young man with short brown hair, wearing a military uniform, and was serious.

Chen Lun felt that it looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

After lunch.

Rebecca excitedly took a newspaper and quickly "rolled" over.

The wheelchair was rubbing against the floor, so scared Binoz was ready to save people at any time.

"Mr. Jack! You're on the newspaper!"

Chen Lun took the newspaper and, under Rebecca's guidance, found himself appearing on a large section.

"——Rampages broke out in Cuiti Zoo! Tigers were out of the cage! Elephants killed people!

The mysterious young man used magic to uniform the beast? Control the beast!?"

After reading the title, he saw his back standing beside the two elephants, only a blurred side face was revealed.

Chen Lun couldn't help frowning.

This news report is quite detailed, as if you were witnessing the whole process on the spot. The description is very exaggerated, with strong conspiracy theories about Chen Lun's identity and "magic".

The whole article does not tell the injured people, but just creates a double-digit death toll and places suspicion on his own "magic".

Although I didn't say it directly, there is a meaning that it caused the tragedy.

"The Huiye Post has always been such a gimmick 'story' that is random, either gossip or rumor..."

Butler Binoz, who was beside him, followed and jokingly expressed his opinion.

Viscount Pompeii seemed to have thought of something, and came over and said softly to Chen Lun:

"This newspaper, like the zoo, is the industry of Count Bradley. The negative impact of the zoo incident is too great. I am afraid I want to find someone to divert my attention...

There may be a special department coming to you during this time, Mr. Jack.”

He patted Chen Lun on the shoulder.

“But don’t worry, I will help you settle them…
