The moment He Ao's voice fell, a black shadow emerged from his right side.
Then a plump and slender thigh wrapped in black stockings was drawn toward He Ao's head.
This is a kick.
The red sword light flashed past and collided with the whip legs in the sky. He Ao squatted down and bent his knees slightly. An orange light emerged on the surface of the slender thigh, blocking the red sword light and instantly shattering.
This black shadow is also a C-level. This is the first time He Ao has encountered a talent sequence that can compete head-on with a 'warrior' in terms of strength.
The black figure suddenly stepped back and landed in the middle of the triangular pattern not far away.
The hem of her skirt fell down, covering the delicate and plump part between the top of her black stockings and her short skirt.
This person is none other than Iliaan's maid.
Zila——
With an extremely slight sound, the tight stockings on the maid's thighs where they had just collided with He Ao's sword light suddenly tore open, revealing the snow-white skin underneath.
Then the skin split open instantly, revealing a thin and long wound, and glowing orange blood overflowed from the wound.
He Ao did not look at this scene, but raised his hand and glanced at the bracelet.
"As a large number of people fleeing into the South District, thefts and robberies in the South District gradually become more frequent... Ah! The mercenary group of the mining consortium just started shooting on the streets... The city defense army, where are the city defense troops!
!!”
The current real-time news is being broadcast on the bracelet.
"Made Mining Consortium, I have long disliked you!!!"
"Brothers, kill them! If we don't kill them today, we will die! Shoot! Shoot!"
Then there was the sound of the host running hastily and the chaotic sound of gunfire.
The southern district also started to be in chaos.
The Southern District is the last area in Rock City that still maintains a certain degree of order. Chaos in the Southern District means that chaos has completely spread to the city.
In the Federation, the God of Chaos is the one who likes chaos most, and followers of the God of Chaos also like to cause chaos everywhere.
In addition to the God of Chaos, there is another evil god who also likes chaos, and that is the God of Death.
Unlike the God of Chaos, who loves chaos itself, the God of Death loves the despair and death that chaos brings.
The more desperate people there are, the more deaths it may cause, and the more this evil god can be pleased.
Therefore, believers of the God of Chaos often like to cause turmoil in an area at a small cost. They can shoot and change places. The more chaos they create, the more they can please their god, and this kind of chaos can be easily extinguished.
The believers of the God of Death prefer to carefully arrange a situation to cause large-scale killing and death.
The best time for death to come is when a large number of deaths occur, and the souls of those who have just died are the best sacrifices to the god of death.
The followers of Death were active at the end of the Cataclysm and the chaotic era when the Federation was first established.
That was the time when the belief in the God of Death was at its most glorious. A large number of cities and gathering places were established, and followers of the God of Death flowed between these cities and gathering places, provoking conflicts, causing killings and death.
Finally, the entire gathering place is sacrificed to the God of Death in exchange for promotion or gifts.
Therefore, the reputation of the followers of the God of Death was even worse than that of the God of Chaos. After the establishment of the Federation, they began to arrest and hunt down the followers of the God of Death on a large scale.
Since then, the followers of Death have not left active records for a long time.
If Dawn City had not been established long enough and still retained a large number of records from the end of the Cataclysm and the establishment of the original Federation, Christos would not have been able to find such detailed information for He Ao.
Data shows that the Church of Death has the power to radicalize people's emotions, causing those within its sphere of influence to go more and more crazy.
Now it's just chaos, and then chaos will be induced into killing, and that's when death comes.
He Ao's eyes swept over the huge pattern flowing with bright red liquid.
In fact, there are two types of Eye of Truth patterns.
A commonly used pattern among wizards, the eyes embedded in the triangle are closed.
'Truth watches all its followers, and followers can never see that eye.'
An inverted triangle inlaid with closed eyes means in occultism "truth that cannot be pursued" or "truth is always on the way to exploration"
And if this eye is open, it means that ‘the truth has been found’.
Generally, only extremely conceited wizards will use this pattern. Other wizards feel that using this pattern rashly is 'blasphemy' to the truth.
The God of Death directly used this pattern to make the magic circle for his own ritual.
Although the other party is a great being, the wizards still think that the God of Death is an 'arrogant' madman.
After the wizard organization disappeared, some wizards became the core force of the Church of the God of Knowledge. Therefore, the Church of the God of Knowledge inherited the views of some wizards and did not deal with the Church of Death for a long time.
Iliaan's maid did not attack again, she retreated behind Iliaan.
The beautiful woman, whose eyes were covered by a gauze, stretched out her hand and covered the wound on the maid's thigh.
Along with a burst of purple light, the blood that was constantly overflowing from the wound was slowly stopped.
The whip kick just now was just a test, a test of He Ao's strength.
After stopping the maid's bleeding, Iliaan looked at He Ao,
"You don't seem to be curious about meeting me? How did you guess that?"
Gentle mother-like words rang in He Ao's ears, which gradually eased He Ao's original nervousness.
His body froze, but he did not make any unexpected expression. He glanced at the ritual circle on the ground, and the power of his spiritual consciousness was mobilized by him, and his entire field of vision changed.
Purple circuits flowing in the sky appeared in his field of vision. One end of these circuits was connected to the Eye of Truth ritual array in front of He Ao, and one end extended beyond the wall, spreading in all directions.
At the same time, he looked at Iliaan and chuckled, "There is a little bit of luck,"
In fact, the old foreman gave He Ao two hints. One was when he gave He Ao the mining pick that night, and the other was actually when they first met.
The night when He Ao and the old foreman met for the first time, after he chatted with the old foreman, the old foreman told him the location of the bathroom and added another sentence, "You can walk around the church as you like. God loves the world, but please
keep quiet.'
It was these words and the subsequent attraction that led Ho Ao to find the door of the underground library and see the pattern of the Eye of Truth and Ilia Ann.
The key point is in the sentence "please keep quiet".
Ilyan can't see things, but her hearing seems to be very strong, and she can quickly identify people's positions through subtle sounds.
Therefore, He Ao's steps must be very, very light. In fact, He Ao did this, so he could successfully avoid Iliaan's partial perception, find the mechanism, and open the door of the underground library.
However, the old foreman probably didn't mean to remind He Ao specifically at that time. He may have discovered the underground library, but he still couldn't avoid Iliaan's perception and enter the underground library, so he let He Ao walk around.
These chaotic moving sounds will affect Ilya Ann, like a wolf crying, and ultimately reduce her acuity.
For the old foreman, this is a long-term task. He may not only have found He Ao, but also other people, and it has even been going on for a period of time in the early stage to reduce some of Iliaan's acuity.
But he didn't expect that He Ao, as a 'warrior', had extremely strong control over his body. His footsteps were so light that he entered the chapel before Iliaan could sense it, found the cross, and unlocked the mechanism of the cross.
According to the schedule of Iliaan's ritual, without He Ao, Iliaan would have probably completed the ritual before the old foreman used this 'crying wolf' method to completely paralyze Iliaan.
This may be the reason why Iliaan was not prepared for this kind of 'little trick'.
In short, in game terms, when He Ao entered the church map for the first time, he completed the difficult "hidden mission" and obtained the key clues to the entire main mission.
The first meeting with Iliaan in the underground library was not pleasant, so He Ao had always been wary of Iliaan in his heart.
Iliaan must have been surprised and confused at the time.
Because of the existence of this defense, when Iliaan reminded Heao not to read more books about gods, he did not show his anti-pollution characteristics, but obeyed Iliaan's suggestion.
If he had shown his ability to resist contamination, the bookshelf barrier just now would not have been broken so easily.
However, He Ao was very rational and showed a cooperative attitude at the time, and did not explore deeper. Iliaan also wanted to use the miners' mutual aid association, so she did not take action against him directly.
If he were a little more violent, Ilyan might have to seize the opportunity and try her best to kill him, the 'person who discovered the secret'.
Later, when leaving, He Ao asked Iliaan if anyone else knew about the underground library.
Iliaan's answer was that the old foreman didn't know.
But at that time, He Ao had already vaguely sensed that the old foreman knew something, which proved that there was some kind of crack between Iliaan and the old foreman.
However, at that time, He Ao did not particularly suspect Iliaan, he just assumed that she and the Miners' Mutual Aid Association had no feelings and were motivated by their own interests and were on guard against each other.
The time when he really started to be vigilant was when he was looking at the mayor's information.
He found that the mayor's self-cultivation before and after was completely different, and when the mayor first gave a speech, his natural action of sitting upright with his shoulders flat when sitting was somewhat inconsistent with his overall behavior, and the mayor did not do anything after that.
This action occurs.
Ordinary people may think it is normal, but there are many things that happen when a person suddenly tries hard to learn and change himself.
However, He Ao, who had experienced several dungeons, experienced the lives of different characters, and had a puppet in the main world, immediately realized that the mayor might not be the original 'mayor'.
From then on, he began to doubt the mayor's identity.
He has used a puppet crystal ball and knows that there is power in this world that can control others.
And that special sitting posture was due to the discomfort when I first took over the new body, and naturally showed the movements I was used to.
At that time, He Ao felt that the sitting posture looked familiar, but he had too few clues.
Iliaan handled all the information almost perfectly. She also discovered a small loophole that was unintentional in the mayor's election at the beginning, so she began to consciously block all the information about the mayor's election.
He Ao's doubts continued until the old foreman was attacked. The old foreman did something that was obviously out of character for him, and then he was attacked. He Ao almost instantly thought of the person behind the 'manipulation' of the mayor.
The other party can also control the old foreman.
Taking this as a basis, I started to think about it, and naturally I thought that the old foreman might not be able to help himself, and sometimes there was something wrong in his words, and then I thought that the old foreman might have given a hint on the night when he gave the mining pickaxe.
The old foreman finally said when leaving,
'Remember to collect the body for me, don't be like Yaz, who was taken away by the municipal garbage collector.'
Iliaan could only feel some of the old foreman's more obvious emotions on the surface, but not the deeper emotions, so the old foreman had to take several roundabout ways to deliver the message to He Ao.
First of all, when it comes to collecting the corpses, the old foreman had a premonition of possible death, so he mentioned this.
But in the end, after he was seriously injured in an attack, the person who took him away was a pharmacist, so he may have arranged for a pharmacist to help him collect his body early in the morning.
Since the funeral arrangements have been made, why did he mention collecting the body?
An unusual point is often intended to emphasize a specific content.
What the old foreman wants to emphasize is that 'Yaz was picked up by the municipal garbage collector.'
When Ho Ao killed Yaz, the old foreman was not present. If he wanted to know the news about Yaz, he had to inquire through the intelligence network. But if he only cares about Yaz's life and death, he can only inquire about his life and death. There is no need to emphasize the municipal garbage collection.
of.
What is the background of Yaz’s body collection?
In the confrontation between Ilyan and Able, Able may look down on Yaz and don't want his body, but after Able leaves, Ilyan should not give the body to the municipal government, because giving it to the municipal government is equivalent to giving it to the mayor.
This is not something the mayor's enemies could do.
Of course, this incident can be explained by various reasons, but the old foreman particularly emphasized this point to remind He Ao.
There may be something wrong with Ilya Ann.
After thinking about this point, He Ao naturally thought of the mayor's sitting posture. The mayor's initial sitting posture was almost exactly the same as Ilia's sitting posture in the wheelchair.
That is the sitting posture of sitting in a wheelchair for a long time.
Iliaan has nothing to do with the mining consortium.
The mayor's series of operations against the miners on the direction of the mining consortium can be explained from the perspective of the mayor, the actual controller of the mining consortium, but from the perspective of a person behind the scenes who has nothing to do with the mining consortium, it is difficult to understand.
.
If Iliaan is greedy for the power of the mining consortium, she can directly go out and control the mining consortium. As a B-level, it is much easier for her to achieve this than to support the mayor.
Moreover, she did not benefit herself when she controlled the mayor. She even lost her position as speaker because she had the mayor elected.
If you don't seek small profits, you must have a big plan.
Combined with the attack on the old foreman, He Ao quickly deduced that Iliaan might want to detonate chaos among the miners and the mining consortium.
Including the process of controlling the mayor and supporting the miners' mutual aid association, she also deliberately intensified the contradiction between the two.
This is also the reason why the team that attacked Vincent from the Miners' Mutual Aid Association fell right into the trap of the city defense army that night.
Because everyone on the left and right was hers, that time she not only wanted to get rid of Vincent, but also wanted to get rid of Ivo, who had superb mecha piloting skills.
Ivo, who drives a C-class mecha, is too powerful a help for the Miners Mutual Aid Association.
It is difficult to understand that intensifying conflicts and not benefiting oneself, so He Ao guessed that Iliaan's behavior may have something to do with mystery.
Then he judged that the mayor would inevitably be abandoned to intensify the final conflict, so the mayor must 'die'.
At the same time, he asked Christos for information about the Eye of Truth.
Of course, the derivation process was complicated, and He Ao had no need or time to explain it to Iliaan. He shrugged, and then said, "There is a little bit of luck",
"I can tell you don't look like a good person at first glance."
This is really not a lie. When he was in the underground library, He Ao really didn't think Iliaan was a good person at first.
Iliaan:?
Her white feet were submerged in the bright red water.
For the first time, a look of astonishment appeared on the face of this sexy woman with a cold face.
In her long life, she had heard many kinds of compliments on her appearance, but this was the first time she heard the description "You don't look like a good person at first glance".
The maid next to her was also obviously confused. She didn't know whether He Ao was joking or explaining seriously.
The key is that He Ao was extremely serious when he said this.
While the two of them were confused by this answer, He Ao was also mobilizing his spiritual consciousness to carefully analyze the energy flow of the array in front of him.
The complexity of the energy flow of this magic circle and the power involved far exceeded the objects of his previous analysis, and the consumption of spiritual consciousness was also extremely large.
Iliaan was quite wary of his ability to resist pollution and the strength he had just shown in the battle. He was stalling for time, waiting for the moment when the ritual was finally complete, and He Ao was stalling for time to analyze this ritual circle.
After a while, Iliaan's gentle voice sounded again, "Even if you guessed my identity, you should go to the church to find me instead of coming here."
He Ao glanced at her. This time he did not give a general answer, but explained seriously.
In fact, the starting point for confirming the core of the ritual is to start with the monsters contaminated by the God of War.
The more than thirty locations where monsters appear do not form any pattern.
But when he learned that Iliaan had nothing to do with the God of War, He Ao decided not to start with the monsters, but with the impact caused by the monsters.
If you draw the areas where these monsters kill, you will get more than thirty irregular shapes.
These irregular figures all have a relatively obvious, off-center position. By connecting these centers, they can be connected into a huge regular circle, which includes most of the area in Rock City.
At this time, embed the pattern of the Eye of Truth into the circle and adjust the angle. You will find that at a certain angle, the pattern of the Eye of Truth will completely coincide with the point where the mayor has been.
The mayor's trajectory is extremely complicated and chaotic, and there should be deliberate misdirection and deception.
He Ao is not sure whether this overlapping method is correct. It is also possible that the mayor's random route just constitutes an eye of truth.
But the mayor's death gave Ho Ao a hint.
In the past, all the masterminds pointed to the mayor, so under ordinary circumstances, it would be natural to think that the final core location might be the mayor's palace or the mining consortium building, which is the first floor.
But the mayor died, and He Ao also determined that the mastermind behind it was Iliaan.
Under normal circumstances, it would be speculated that the core location is the church where Iliaan often stays, which is the second floor.
At this time, He Ao stood from Iliaan's perspective and thought carefully about it. According to Iliaan's rigorous acting style, he might have set up a third-level reversal.
That is, the core point is actually the mining consortium or the mayor's palace, the most dangerous place is the safest.
And the pupil of the Eye of Truth that coincides with the mayor's trajectory is the mining consortium building.
So He Ao guessed that the core point was the mining consortium building.
Hearing He Ao's serious explanation, Iliaan was stunned again.
He Ao's explanation here is so serious and detailed, which reflects that he just said that he doesn't look like a good person, and he seems to really think so.
He Ao looked at Iliaan. He actually had other judgments that he didn't say.
Outside, relying on the killing of monsters and the mayor's arrangements, a huge ritual circle was constructed that enveloped most of the city. That was the essence of the ritual circle.
According to Chenxi City's records of the Church of Death, it is very likely that everyone under the shadow of this magic circle will be affected by this magic circle, and their thinking will continue to be radicalized, leading to killing, and eventually becoming souls sacrificed to the God of Death.
The ritual circle in the mining consortium building should be the core of the outer circle.
Those faint purple lights are the energy lines connecting the core and the main body of the magic circle.
By observing the flow of these energies, after half of the second spiritual consciousness was consumed, He Ao had figured out the core of the energy circuits of these magic circles.
The stronger the ritual circle, the higher the requirements for the layout of the circle.
If these cores are destroyed, the giant magic circle outside will most likely collapse instantly.
He jumped forward suddenly.
