The desire that arose in the heart of the rich man seemed to be poured down by a splash of cold water. His expression suddenly changed and he looked at Minavar and asked.
"After you killed Ariel, although you erased Ariel's smell and breath, the security bureau was unable to track Ariel's whereabouts through smell and breath."
"But the Security Bureau has borrowed a cursed object called the Bell of Yesterday, which can be tracked through image recall."
"The security bureau will conduct a video review tonight to track where Ariel went before he disappeared."
Minaval picked up the red wine glass and said.
"You actually borrowed such a cursed object?"
The rich man's complexion became extremely ugly.
If the Security Bureau really borrows a cursed object that can perform image recall, then through image recall, it will definitely be able to find him.
When the time comes, his identity will be exposed, and what awaits him will be worse than death.
However, he is not an ordinary person after all, otherwise he would not have been promoted to his current position in Gnawing Fang.
He quickly discovered something unusual and managed to regain his composure.
"No, you are lying to me. If the Security Bureau will find me soon, you will not come to me at this time."
"No, I didn't lie to you. The Security Bureau has indeed borrowed such a cursed object. As for why I came to you at this time, it is naturally to save you."
Minaval touched the white cat in her arms and said.
"After all, if something happens to you, the organization's plan in Constant City will almost fail. This is not what I want to see."
"What can you do to save me?"
The rich man asked hurriedly.
"I have a cursed object called the Box of Flesh, which can erase all traces, including images from the past."
While Minaval spoke, she patted the white cat in her arms.
Bai Mao jumped out of her arms, visible to the naked eye, and her body suddenly swelled.
In a very short period of time, he turned into a monster nearly 1.6 meters tall.
It has a human body, a cat's head, and four claws like cat claws.
"Wow--"
It opened its mouth, and its abdominal muscles wriggled, spreading all the way up, through the throat, and into the mouth.
A box the size of an adult's palm, stained with yellow-green mucus, was spit out from its mouth.
It picked up the box, placed it on the coffee table, and retreated behind Minaval like a guard.
Look carefully at this box. It is not made of wood or metal, but of flesh and blood.
The dark red flesh is like the sticky wall of some kind of creature, and its surface is full of wrinkles.
At the top, there are two eyes and a mouth full of fangs.
At this time, these two eyes were turning, looking around strangely.
"I'll find someone!"
The rich man stood up and prepared to find someone to use the Box of Flesh.
There is a price to pay for the use of cursed objects, so naturally he would not do it himself.
As for whether the person he chooses is willing or not, it's not up to him.
"The side effect of using the Flesh Box is that you will lose part of your flesh and blood. In addition, the side effects of this cursed object will vary depending on the user."
"If the user is too weak, even if he sacrifices all his flesh and blood, he still won't be able to activate it successfully."
Minaval shook her head and said.
"In other words, I can only initiate it myself?"
The rich man paused and asked with a frown.
"That's right, you can only initiate it yourself, which is why I came to you."
Minaval nodded and said.
"If you can just find someone to activate it, I've already found someone to activate it and erase Ariel's traces for you."
The well-built man frowned.
If the box of flesh and blood is not used, he is likely to be exposed, and if the box of flesh and blood is used, he will lose part of his flesh and blood.
After just a few seconds of thinking, the wealthy man made a decision and asked.
"How to use the Box of Flesh?"
"Just put your hand into the mouth of the Flesh Box."
Minaval took a sip of red wine and said.
The rich man walked to the coffee table and handed his left hand to the box of flesh and blood.
The Box of Flesh seemed to sense the rich man's thoughts and opened its mouth full of fangs.
Poof!
Accompanied by the sound of flesh being chewed, half of the rich man's hand was bitten off by the mouth of the Flesh Box.
Chewed a few times and swallowed.
After swallowing half of the palm, the flesh and blood box's eyes rolled, seeming quite satisfied.
An invisible wave spread, passed through the villa, and spread farther away.
With this wave of fluctuations, all traces of Ariel Soto, including the images of Ariel Soto in the past, including the body of Ariel Soto buried somewhere by a wealthy man, disappeared.
This is no longer as simple as erasing traces, but letting the entire person evaporate from the world.
What if it was a living person?
Obviously, the Box of Flesh is a very high-level cursed object, and its effect is not just as simple as erasing traces.
Minaval glanced at the pale man who had lost half of his hand, and waved to the monster with the head of a cat and the body of a man behind him.
The monster with the head of a cat and the body of a human walked to the coffee table, picked up the box of flesh and blood, opened its mouth wide and swallowed it.
Then it quickly shrank and turned into a snow-white fur again, and jumped into Minavar's arms with a slight jump.
"Then I'll take my leave!"
Minaval stood up and put on the black fur coat hanging on the hanger.
After saying something to the rich man, he turned around and walked out. He quickly boarded a carriage and drove away from the villa.
In the carriage, Minaval's expression turned contemptuous.
"It's so useless that I have to help finish it off. It has been dormant for more than ten years. This is the organization's first action in these years. We can't fail!"
Ariel Soto did not know where she lived but knew her name, but she was not worried about the security agency finding her because she had always used a false name.
…
On a street in the East District, the four Felins were following the image of Ariel Soto, getting closer and closer to the villa where the rich man lived.
Sudden.
The image of Ariel Soto shattered and disappeared like a bubble, disappearing before the eyes of Felin and the others.
"what happened?"
Julie asked Felin quickly.
"I did not let the echo of yesterday's clock stop."
Felin shook his head blankly.
He could feel that the Clock of Yesterday was still running, and there were still images of the past around him, but Ariel Soto's image had completely disappeared.
"I don't know why Ariel Soto suddenly disappeared."
"It should be that the other party noticed that we were following us and used some method to erase the images left by Ariel Soto in the past."
Lindy looked around at the images that still existed except Ariel Soto, and guessed.
"What should we do?"
Feline asked.
"This can only go so far."
Lindy said with a little regret.
"We can obviously catch a cultist who is more advanced than Ariel Soto right away, but we don't want the other party to notice it when we are about to catch him."
Julie looked regretful.
"This shows that the other party is not simple. He must be a very high-level cultist and has a high status in the Gnawing Fang."
Lindy said.
"And we are not without gains. We already know the name Mina Val, and we can use this name as a clue to investigate."
"I'm worried that this may be the other party's pseudonym, or that the other party may use another name when speaking to the outside world."
Julie said a little worried.
"Whether it's a pseudonym or not, this is an important clue that warrants investigation."
"Moreover, this place should not be far from where the high-level cultist is hiding."
"We can delineate a certain area around here and conduct a detailed investigation of the nobles and wealthy businessmen within this area."
After speaking, Lindy looked at Felin and said.
"Felin, you can end the use of the Bell of the Past."
"Um."
Felin responded and ended the use of the Bell of the Past.
As use ends, the hour hand of the Past Clock begins to rotate rapidly clockwise.
The surrounding scenery changes.
This time it is no longer going backwards, but moving forward quickly.
Pedestrians, carriages...all moving things move quickly in fast forward mode.
The hour hand rotated rapidly for several times and then stopped rotating rapidly. The image disappeared and returned to the current time.
"How's it going? Do you feel any abnormality in your memory?"
Lindy quickly asked Felin who had finished using Yesterday's Bell.
Julie and Ivy also looked at Felin.
"I didn't feel anything unusual."
Felin felt it and shook his head. He didn't feel anything unusual.
The total time spent using Yesterday's Clock did not exceed two hours. After the three-ring appraisal eye was weakened, he only randomly lost less than four minutes.
Losing his memory for less than four minutes has almost no impact on him.
"That's good."
Lindy breathed a sigh of relief.
Although based on the experience of past users, it would not have any impact, she was still a little worried. Fortunately, like past users, Felin did not suffer from memory abnormalities.
"Everyone is tired tonight. We will take half a day off tomorrow and start working again in the afternoon."
…
In the days that followed, the Security Bureau mobilized its intelligence capabilities to investigate the name Minaval and the nobles and wealthy businessmen within a defined area.
Because Gnawing Fang was alert, he was no longer in action, and the tasks related to monsters were greatly reduced.
Feilin did not receive the mission, so he went to and from get off work as usual every day. At work, he took out the secret book of the mysterious gun and read it.
He has adapted to the skyrocketing power in these days and is completely under his control. He will no longer use excessive force and break something.
Half a month later.
"It turns out that this is the way to advance from the second level to the third level..."
Felin gently closed the hundreds of pages of the secret book of the first to third rings of the mysterious gun. After spending half a month, he finally read the book of the secret skills of the first to third rings of the mysterious gun and gained a complete understanding of the book.
The second-level and third-level practice methods.
If the mysterious gun wants to advance from the second level to the third level, it must practice and master the "armor-piercing" characteristic, which means that the bullet has the effect of "armor-piercing bullets".
The method is to engrave ritual patterns with armor-piercing properties on the surface of the bullet condensed by mysterious power.
When the bullet is fired, the ritual pattern will be activated.
The mysterious power that makes up the bullet will be activated by the ritual pattern, and the bullet will have an "armor-piercing" effect.
"There will be a power gap of more than ten times between the mysterious power bullets with armor-piercing properties and ordinary mysterious power bullets!"
According to the description in the secret book, a mysterious power bullet engraved with armor-piercing ritual patterns will be more than ten times more powerful than ordinary mysterious power bullets.
The reason for this is that the armor-breaking attribute ritual pattern improves the utilization efficiency of mysterious power.
A bullet of mysterious power that is not engraved with the ritual pattern of armor-piercing properties is like using the mysterious power to hit someone with a stone.
The mysterious power bullets engraved with armor-piercing ritual patterns are like processing the mysterious power into gunpowder.
One is "stone" and the other is "gunpowder". There is naturally a huge power gap between the two.
"With the complexity of the armor-breaking ritual pattern, and my lack of photographic memory, it will not be easy for me to engrave the mysterious power on the bullet."
After reading the secret book, Feilin has realized the difficulty of the method of advancing from the second ring to the third ring.
If you want to engrave the armor-piercing ritual pattern on the mysterious power bullet, you must memorize the armor-piercing ritual pattern completely and achieve a deep memory.
The armor-breaking attribute ritual pattern is composed of many pattern patterns, which is extremely complex, even surpassing the pattern of the mysterious spear initiation ceremony.
It is extremely difficult to memorize it completely.
Just memorizing it will definitely take a very long time.
"What's even more difficult is that in order to be able to use it in battle, it must be engraved in an instant."
The mysterious power in the mysterious gun exists in a state of aggregation. Only when it is used will it separate and form a mysterious power bullet.
And this is doomed. The mysterious power bullet with the armor-piercing ritual pattern cannot be engraved in advance, and it can only be made on the spot during the battle.
During the battle, the situation changes rapidly. Under such a tense situation, it is naturally impossible to slowly engrave the mysterious power bullets with armor-piercing ritual patterns.
Not to mention that the inscription can be completed in an instant, but it must take at least one or two seconds to complete the inscription of the armor-breaking ritual pattern.
Otherwise, before the armor-breaking ritual pattern is successfully engraved, the enemy or the enemy's extraordinary ability will already be approaching.
"If you practice step by step, even if you practice for a year, you may not be able to apply it in actual combat. Fortunately, I have a panel and I can take a shortcut."
Felin exhaled a breath and called out the panel.
Name: Felin
Eye of identification: three rings (can be upgraded)
Mysterious Gun: Second Ring (can be upgraded)
Autopsy: Master Level (cannot be upgraded)
Mystery Points:10.7
He looked at the Mysterious Gun column and saw that it was indeed upgradeable.
As he read through the part about advancing from the second level to the third level of the Secret Art Book of the Mysterious Spear, and mastered the training methods for advancing from the second level to the third level of the Mysterious Spear, the Secret Art Mystic Spear has changed from being non-upgradeable to being upgradeable.
.
He was very lucky that he had a panel and the ability to cheat.
Otherwise, let alone being spotted by a large force like the Security Bureau with the title of special talent, even joining a mysterious organization would be impossible.
One can only be like detective Caffey Colon. Although he yearns for the mysterious world, he cannot open the door, join the mysterious organization and come into contact with the mystery.
"There will be changes in the improvement. We can only upgrade the mysterious gun after get off work."
After get off work in the afternoon, Felin stopped by a restaurant for dinner and then returned to his residence.
When he returned to his residence, he locked the door and sat on the sofa in the living room.
After taking a few deep breaths to calm down, he called up the panel and chose to upgrade the Mysterious Gun column.
Whoosh!
As he chose to upgrade the Mysterious Gun column, the Mystery Points were reduced by 4 points to 6.7 points, and the words "Second Ring" on the Mysterious Gun became "Three Rings".
A large number of memories poured into his mind like a tide.
