Chapter 165 The screamer

"Tell me." John picked up the flask and gestured, "Those damn paperwork are killing me. You'd better give me something exciting."

"I'm not your boss, J."

"Aha, but you are the leader of the Round Table, and I am also a member of the Round Table for the time being."

"That night, uh, I remember we didn't vote on who would lead the roundtable."

"Don't be stupid, Xing Ze." John put away the wine bottle, "In addition to their own obsessions, the reason why that group of lunatics can gather together is largely due to you."

"Okay," Xing Ze frowned helplessly, "I didn't expect that I still have the charm to attract crazy people. What about you, J, is this why you helped me?"

"What do you think? Okay, let's get back to business. What do you want me to do?"

"Reko hatched a plan."

"Ah, I know, he mentioned it. Do you want me to help?"

"Yes, I'm afraid that he will be in danger alone. And I, as you know, I provoked the mayor's son. Unless the rich lady is here, otherwise..."

"I understand. Remember to buy me a drink after you're done, no, including the poet. To be honest, he and I are very attracted to each other, and he has great insights on women."

After that, John reached out and knocked on the door of the interrogation room, "What are you going to do with this man?"

"I put a confusion spell on him and just found an alley and threw it away. The next day he would feel like he had been robbed."

John seemed to disagree with this plan. He suggested: "You know that the confusion spell can be lifted. To be on the safe side, I can let Isido handle it."

"No, we don't need to take action. Let him go back, and someone will naturally take action." Xing Ze's eyes flashed with a chill.

The next day, in the evening, a dessert shop in Edinburgh.

Ai Li looked at Xing Ze who was devouring his food solemnly. She suppressed the anger in her heart and thought about how to speak.

"You are right, Miss Shafik." Xing Ze wiped his mouth with a napkin with satisfaction, "The carrot cake here is very good."

"Have you eaten?"

Xing Ze nodded.

"Then let's talk about business, about what happened last night." Ellie said seriously, "How was your conversation with him?"

"We had a great conversation and he told us everything."

"I think you must have used some dark means." Ellie threw a newspaper on the table. "Obviously, your friend did not survive this afternoon."

Xing Ze glanced at the newspaper, "So, he was killed?"

"Yes, Billy Davis, the famous real estate businessman, was found dead in the bathtub of his home. The cause of death was myocardial infarction. What I care about is who did it."

"He mentioned an organization lurking in New Ravenska Village. I guess it should be the Sabbat Order."

Ellie raised her eyebrows, "With the Mendes family?"

"There is a big connection." Xing Ze whispered, "Whether it is the disappearance of Sheikh Mendez or the disappearance of New Ravenska Village, they are all related to them."

"They actually have such terrifying power." The eldest lady said worriedly, "Not only did they quietly kill a real estate tycoon, but they were also able to influence a wizard family.

"Manel Mendez's mysterious gatherings should be used to win over the Protestants, right? The pure-blood wizards living in Ravenska Village are worried about not being able to find an organization that can support them."

"Continue, miss." Xing Ze didn't expect this.

The eldest lady took out a thick notebook from her pocket, opened it and looked for it, then continued: "Based on the information we have investigated, only wizards will be invited to the gatherings of the Mendez family.

"I went to inquire about this matter. Many wizards in Ravenska Village attended this party, but most of them were pure-blood wizards.

"And when I asked about the content of the party, they either kept silent or changed the topic. Maybe next time, I should learn from you and use some dishonorable means to force them to question me."

"Forget it, distinguished lady." Xing Ze showed a bitter smile, "Leave it to me to do the swearing.

"But I agree with your theory. No matter what the purpose of the Mendez family is, they are using parties to attract people."

"What did I miss?" A sudden voice made Xing Ze and Ai stop talking.

Edwin pulled out a chair and sat down, "It seems that the conversation last night went well. I have read the letter you gave me. In other words, the Sabbat Order is very likely to be operating in Ravenska Village?"

"That seems to be the case so far. Is there any new progress in the translation?" Xing Ze asked.

"Yes." Edwin took out the ancient runes that he had translated before, "I found that this is a summoning spell."

"Summoning Novel?" Xing Ze guessed with some disappointment, "If that's the case, my two months' salary will be in vain."

"No." Edwin, "It's another summoning spell, used to summon a dream thing called a screamer."

"The name doesn't sound like a good thing." Xing Ze sighed, thinking of the shadow Colin saw on the night of September 1st.

"The article also said that this thing can transform into a human form and possess intelligence beyond human beings."

"Then did it say how we should destroy it?"

Edwin pulled out the last piece of paper, "Ordinary physical weapons cannot harm it, but magic spells and enchanted weapons can work. Like other dream objects, the Screamer also has a strong regeneration ability.

"In addition, the screamer cannot exist alone in the world. It must form a connection with a person in the world. As long as the person who makes the connection is killed, the screamer will return to the dreamland."

After hearing this, the eldest lady's solemn face relaxed a little, "At least it can be killed."

"I don't want to run into this thing." Xing Ze recalled the battle between himself and Waxy Face. If Dumbledore hadn't come to the rescue in the end, he might be buried in that inconspicuous cemetery now.

According to Edwin's words, this so-called screamer, like Novel Ke, is a native monster of the dream, and its strength can be imagined.

Novel Ke died on the shining Trapezohedron, and this cult holy object probably won't help Xing Ze a second time.

"Isn't there any good news?" Xing Ze asked.

Edwin shook his head, "I'm still waiting for you to give me some."

The eldest lady closed the note and interjected: "Tomorrow I will go to Ravenska Village to inquire and see if I can find out anything more from those pure-blood wizards."

"No, don't go anymore." Xing Ze waved his hand, "Miss Shafiq, you are too ostentatious."

"If you mean my clothes." Ellie looked down at her clothes, "I can dress more simply."

"You know that's not what I mean." Xing Ze frowned, "You are like a shining star in the night sky, noble lady. People with your status frequently appearing in Ravenska Village will attract

Unnecessary attention.

"Besides, you also saw what happened to Davis. If you push those lunatics, I think they will also attack you."

"Then we do everything?"

"Of course not. I still have a mountain of files here. If you are free, then help me sort them out."

"What case?"

"The missing cases in Ravenska Village in the past ten years." Xing Ze replied, "Finding the commonalities among them, we may be able to find the rules of action of the Sabbat Order."
