Chapter 252 Infiltrate
The hotel room is well lit, and Shade can clearly see that the center of the emblem is A rectangle with a Peak top hat on top of the rectangle, on which a face is outlined with three lines:

"What is this?"

Miss Annat explained quickly. :
"New clues from the doctor, hasn't the doctor been collecting information for the past week? Since someone can know the location of the ruins, naturally some people have entered there. This is the pattern found in the ruins, I have been checking I don't know what it is, didn't expect Iluna to know each other."

Miss Beas smiled reservedly and explained to Shade:

"I am also there. When I was waiting for you, I just thought. This is the holy emblem of the fallen old god [Pure Creator]. In the basic knowledge training of the ring warlock of the Orthodox Church, identifying the holy emblem of the old gods is an important exam subject. This god is not well-known, so even if I got 91 out of 100, I just thought of it."

The last sentence of the young girl seemed to be praising herself.

"Old God. Pure creator?"

Shade looked at the holy emblem, and the image of the god suddenly jumping out and saying "surprise" appeared in his head:

"It's not surprising. So, that underground ruin is."

"It was left by his followers."

Miss Anat said with certainty, letting the Shade pulled a chair and sat down first:
"This old god fell in the early fifth era, but his followers did not disappear until the sixth era, they believed that the god would return. Just and Ilu As Na said, there are very few records about this god. He is not powerful, and his followers are not keen on preaching. Judging from the time point, Iluna and I both believe that the underground ruins of Tobesque are extremely rare. It may be left by the last group of believers of the old god [Innocent Creator]."

Shade nods, and Miss Beas added:
"In other words, inside the ruins, except for Except for the sage-level relic, it is very likely that most of the property and all the secrets held by a disappearing old god order are hidden."

Shade turned his head and looked towards Nok in the night outside the window. Printing House Directions:
"What else is there?"

"It's hard to say, now it's time to go."

Proofed by Shade for the last time for two ladies Pocket watch, the three briefly dictated the action plan and precautions again, and then burned all the notes and documents in the room before leaving the hotel.

The street where the Knock printing plant is located, called Marlton Market Street, was muddy after a day of rain. The time has come to night, and after the fog has poured into the streets again, tonight does not seem to be a good time to travel.

In a long dress and glasses, Miss Anat, with a tired face, appeared on the street at this time. She hurried to the outside of the printing house, but because it was already off-duty time, the iron gate of the printing house's yard was closed.

After a few taps, a small window was opened on the iron door. A man stood impatiently behind the door:
"Who is it? We're off work."

"I'm Alina Fick. I ordered a batch of business cards with you the other day."

The tired woman with short brown hair said, and there was also an uneasy tone in her tone. Patience:

"Can you bring me those business cards now, I know you guys are already off work, but I'm in a hurry."

The man looking towards the outside from behind the door revealed an expression of disapproval. Happy expression, but still nodded:

"Yes ma'am, please wait a moment."

After speaking, he turned and walked towards the tallest building in the yard, which is Knock Printing Factory office building.

He left without closing the small window on the iron gate, so that gave Miss Anat a chance to look towards the inside.

Confirming the situation in the yard, just like during the daytime investigation, Miss Anat took out something from her handbag and held it in her palm.

And the man who went to pick up the printed matter quickly returned with a cardboard box. The small window on the iron gate could not let the cardboard box pass through, so he carried an extra set of keys.

After opening the door, Miss Annette did not immediately take the carton. She looked down towards the muddy ground, so the man also held the box and lowered his head. The gas street lights on this street are not very bright, and there are no lights in the yard of the printing factory:
"Is there anything on the ground?"

The man asked suspiciously.

"It's nothing."

Miss Anat said, and suddenly reached out and slapped what was in her palm on the man's forehead:

"Mystic Art - Thinking Puppets!"

On the piece of paper he is holding, the ancient rune is outlined in bright red ink. Rune was slapped on the man's forehead by Miss Anat. At the moment when Mystic Art took effect, red's magical rays of light flickered, as if it was directly engraved on the man's head.

The man opened his eyes wide and wanted to shout, but those rays of light appeared in his pupils at this time, and then the reflection in his eyes was no longer the woman in front of him, but the rune on forehead.

His expression became dull:

"Ma'am, this is your cargo."

"Thanks, let's put it on the clean ground here. , someone will pick me up in a moment."

Miss Annette said, and the man did the same. After the two politely greeted him, he locked the iron door inside again, and walked normally to the building that only had lights on the second floor.

Soon, Shade in a black coat also appeared here, shook hands with Miss Anat, pretended to have a few words of greetings, then bent over to pick up the cardboard box, and then went with her. Walk down the street into the distance.

"It went well."

After getting far enough, they turned into a narrow alley with no street lights.

Miss Anante closed her eyes immediately, and Miss Bayas, who was hiding here waiting for the two of them, supported her.

The female fortune-teller holds a puppet tied with white threads in her hand. The puppet is rough in workmanship, not even the size of a palm, and the red rune above her head is flashing:

"The other party is A ring of warlock, I can only control him for twenty minutes, after which it will put him to sleep."

Her eyes kept rolling under the closed lids, and her voice was very low:

"The silver-eyed people don't even trust most of the people in their organization, so there are not many people who know this address. After the Mercury's Blood was organized into pieces and hid in the city, the manpower here was also reduced.

There should be 7 vigils here at night, four of them are around the warlock. I saw two vigils on the first floor. He was struggling, trying to get out of control, no problem, no abnormality was found, but after his There may be a problem with the head, but it has nothing to do with me
The situation on the second floor, no problem, there are only two people in the lighted room, one of which is a ring warlock. I was saying hello to them, then the third floor. Can't Going to the third floor, he was in fear, what should the people living on the third floor have done to him."

Miss Annat closed her eyes and frowned, and it took a while for her eyes to open. When he put out a breath, his forehead was already full of sweat:
"No problem, I asked him to return to the first floor and told the other two that he would take a break."

" Are you sure you won't wake up?"

Miss Bayas asked, still supporting Miss Anat, but the latter seemed to have recovered, and she showed the two that her head was about to be ripped off in her hands The puppet:
"I will never wake up in three days, and I will be a fool after three days and won't remember my face."

"Have you determined the location of the four ring warlocks? ?"

Shade also asked, and the three walked into the alley together.

"The one in the first ring is now 'asleep', the one on the second floor should be the third or fourth ring, and is reading Knight's novel. I didn't go up to the third floor. Judging from the emotional response, it should be very strong The ring warlock. There is another one I haven't seen, but according to the doctor's information, the gate of the ruins they excavated should be guarded in the basement, and the level of that person is completely unknown."

"It's already very good, impossible. Let's know about it."

Shade nods everything, and the 1st Step of the action goes smoothly.

He took the relic [Bordeaux Candle] from his pocket:
"Enter the printing house."

"Are you sure you want to use this candle now? My spell works with you Alchemy items can also achieve stealth."

Miss Beas asked in a low voice, tonight this young girl is wearing a close-fitting white shirt with flared sleeves and a row of buttons on the chest It is dark golden, the waist is gathered inward, and the collar and hem are decorated with lace patterns. The lower body wears the black women's trousers, which are relatively fashionable in this era, because trousers are relatively easier to move than skirts.

Her long hair was tied up by a head rope and coiled behind her head, exposing her ears, and she looked extremely capable.

Shade nods tonight:
"Use it now, this relic is a consumable item, but it shouldn't be too precious. The goal is to make you the chosen one, and it's worth it no matter the cost. ."

The three continued to walk inward along the alley, and under the leadership of Miss Anat, they kept choosing fork in the road, and finally came to the alley outside the east side of the courtyard wall of the printing factory.

Missing Shade and Miss Beas back a little, Miss Anat tossed a coin carefully. After confirming the front and back in the faint moonlight, he nodded to the two behind him:

"The divination shows that it is safe to move now."

Shade recited the incantation and threw the Frog Legs, then holding a candle, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the flame immediately lit the candle head. He disappeared in front of Miss Bayas and Miss Anat, and the two ladies also waited quietly under the wall.

After five seconds, Shade snuffed out the candle's rays of light and appeared under the wall:
"No problem, I just jumped up and looked towards the yard, no one was walking around. , but watch out for the hounds."

"Use this."

Miss Bayas took out a small cloth bag for the others to sprinkle the powder on. The powder inside is also a kind of alchemy product, which can isolate the smell in a short time and is the standard material for church warlocks.

Shade held the candle that was lit again, and Miss Anat and Miss Bayas hugged his arms tightly from left to right:

"Get ready!"

He bent down slightly and took off with a full breath. The weight of the two ladies dragged him, but they still jumped into the air, and then lightly climbed over the wall and fell safely into the yard.

As soon as both feet landed, something invisible like the wind suddenly jumped up from the ground. And Miss Annette immediately shook the silver bracelet on her wrist:

"Stop!"

She scolded, so the security measures that were placed in the yard were in this piece Ineffective under the influence of the borrowed relic.

The use of the relic caused the candle in Shade's hand to go out, but he then lit it again without much notice.

"Quick~"

Miss Anat urged, and together with Miss Beas, pulled Shade's hem, and Shade led him across the yard into the mansion.

Above, the silver, red, and yellow moons are being gradually obscured by dark clouds. Tonight was a sleepless night for Shade.

PS: There will be more chapters tomorrow, which is basically the end of the volume.
