It's not the protagonist, what does it matter if you are trapped in the Shura field

Chapter 555: The Captured Female Assassin
Lovell held her forehead and sighed deeply.

“So it’s still speculation in the end…”

However, she did not disagree with Felicia's opinion. According to past experience, enemies of the level of the Third World would not be defeated so easily.

Beginning, development, climax, and ending, the story is in this order, but I always feel like something is missing.

"The speculations overlap too much, and the key to denying the truth may be revealed."

"Alright, alright," Love said, with her hands on her hips. "I don't want to listen to your twisted theories. Anyway, we just need to keep the city on alert, right? I'll try using the reason that the invisible flames are still missing, but don't think this will last long."

After staying up most of the night and going through a whole day of hard work and fighting, the crisis created by the agent -

It was finally solved by Ryan and his team.

Lovelli was relieved only after she personally confirmed the disaster situation in each urban area. She arranged the follow-up matters and returned to the manor. It was almost dawn.

……

The next day, or that morning.

After a whole night of turmoil, people who had locked themselves in their homes came out and saw the knights carrying stones in an orderly manner on the street.

Everyone in the royal city felt the tremors that came from the ground last night. Many of them did not sleep the whole night, fearing that flames would suddenly appear in front of them. Also, the inexplicable appearance of the giant white tower in the center of the main urban area was so worrying that they could not close their eyes, and they stayed up all night.

However, when people gradually began to find out what happened last night, their worries immediately turned into great joy, and they cheered in the streets.

"We survived!?"

"Are we safe?"

"God bless Melendel!!"

Although people heard that even the royal palace was attacked last night and the Prime Minister was unconscious, this could not stop people's excitement - most people just felt the tremors, and because the fifth princess had sent people to detect the affected city area with a glowing hammer in advance, only about half of the area was affected by the flames.

After listening to the words of the Fifth Princess, the people who migrated out of these urban areas suddenly felt a sense of luck that they had survived a disaster. If they had not followed the instructions of Her Royal Highness the Princess with doubts, they might have had to face the flames themselves. I really shouldn't have doubted this point. The Fifth Princess was right!

"Long live the Fifth Princess!!"

"Haha, I don't even want to go back. It's nice to watch ACB48's performance here."

“This is all thanks to the idols!”

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have complained about the knights closing the road yesterday."

Until the end, only more than 300 people were injured in last night's fire. If we don't count the few people who died of natural causes, then this disaster did not cause even a single casualty for the people of the royal capital.

“It’s a miracle.”

“I heard that the warriors who fought bravely last night fought bravely and defeated the culprit of the evil forces!”

"Where are they now?"

"We can't let them remain unknown like this!"

However, unlike the people who were cheering and singing praises, the words conveyed by the knights sent by the five princesses gave a signal that martial law should continue, leaving many people confused.

……

Main city area, Wangli Athletic Hall.

At the knight's summons, the female assassin "Qian Yue" who had advanced to the quarterfinals of the elite competition was brought into the room, and the one waiting for her was naturally Rowe Brook. The quiet atmosphere in the room gave people a sense of oppression.

"You can start interrogating me," the female assassin said expressionlessly, "but I won't say anything."

"Why do you have such an idea?" Luo Wei frowned at her.

He said before that they needed to survive so that they could exchange information later, but how did it become that they needed to be tortured alive?

Even when dealing with the demon cultists.

He has never resorted to lynching.

"...!"

Hearing him say this, the assassin named Ye Zi took a step back hesitantly.

"Then, even if you use dirty tricks on me, I won't give in."

"…What?"

Luo Wei was stunned for a moment. Why did the plot about the captured female assassin begin? Was the connection so smooth?

For no reason, he glanced at Ayining beside him.

The latter ignored him.

At this moment, Ye Zi shrank back and stood there trying to keep her breathing calm.

"Do you think I haven't asked around? Citizens from Wuguan City said that you impressed Marshal Xi of the Hooffire Empire with your extremely skilled bed skills, which made her willingly betray her homeland. Everyone there knows about this."

Luo Wei: "..."

It turned out to be the case.

Then he knew why the other party thought so.

Good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels far and wide. As my sister's eyes became sharper, if this continues, someone in this room will indeed be punished.

"That was a misunderstanding," Luo Wei said speechlessly, "It was a lie forced by the situation."

"…What about helping the Dragon Queen hatch her eggs?"

"Believe me, I want to know who is slandering me more than you do." Luo Wei said helplessly.

I thought that if Wuguan City went there, its reputation would not be harmed. How could such a thing be traced all the way to the Lion Garden King?

Only then did Ye Zi finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Is that so? I was fully prepared for today..."

As soon as these words came out, the temperature in the room suddenly became solemn. Luo Wei sat there in a cold sweat, with one side of his neck feeling a little cold.

No, no, this is really a misunderstanding.

Ayining glared at him unhappily. Luo Wei sat there with a bitter feeling. He had adjusted his mindset today, but after this session, communication might be smoother now.

"I just want to talk to you," Luo Wei said, looking at the other person. "Just sit down. I won't make things difficult for you, nor will I force you to tell me the mission plan. It's just that maybe we can exchange information and solve some of our confusions."

"I see," Ye Zi sat down on the chair, "I understand now. If you were to use force on me, I wouldn't have the confidence to escape from you."

...Please stop talking.

Luo Wei restrained his expression and smiled bitterly twice, then said: "First of all, I will track your forces. I know that one of them is an underground secret sect in Melendel. Do you have any other clues?"

Ye Zi thought about it and shook her head.

"I only know that the Funeral Hermits were watching us, but we shook them off before we took action."

Then she looked up and said, "But as you can see, we received the order to cancel the mission halfway through, and you know what happened next."

Being followed was a bit abrupt.

Luo Wei thought for a moment and said, "My friend is also from the East. She knows some things about your organization. You are not assassins whose actions are so easily exposed."

"Really?" Ye Zi glanced at Ayining, "You mean..."

"Maybe you leaked the information from the beginning," Luo Wei analyzed. "Since you were followed by so many groups of people so easily, you must have doubts about this matter, right?"

Ye Zi closed her eyes.

"I don't deny it, but..." She hesitated and said, "Like you said, the fact that the news leaked out is incredible in itself."

"is it?"

Luo Wei then told them the information he had speculated, including that most of the people killed by "Qian Yue" were heinous criminals, and that they chose to take action yesterday because of orders, and that they also had superiors who were responsible for communication and transmission. The other party did not need to speak for these, as he had already drawn conclusions from the action.

"So, can you try to contact your superior?" he finally said.

"She died." Ye Zi said lightly, "And she didn't die in this city. She disappeared alone in the deserted mountains."

"...!?"

Ayining was startled.

Luo Wei pondered for a moment and said, "Then is there a possibility that she leaked the news on purpose to draw the attention of other forces to you, and she successfully used this opportunity to send someone else or go there in person to complete the task that should have been completed by you?"

leaf:"……"

The assassin fell into silence for quite a long time after hearing this.

Looking at her reaction, Luo Wei felt that this was probably true. The delegation here was just a bait, and there were other arrangements on how to carry out the mission.

So it seems——

Chiyue's target is indeed Randall.

But who exactly is their superior? He was able to contact them without telling them the truth about his own death, and even used a trick to blow up the Prime Minister's Tower, and then left in a daze afterwards - Luo Wei didn't think she was really dead, she just erased her identity.

Can Red Needle Man afford to hire such a person? Luo Wei is not sure about this, but if the "Salvation Tea Party" is behind it, then it is definitely not an arrangement by the third world. Who the employer is is really worth pondering.

After leaving the annex, although I figured out what happened to "Chizuki", it was just a piece of the puzzle after the fact.

He needed more intelligence.

Instructing Ayining to go to the office of the sword fighting competition to look for clues, Luo Wei immediately prepared to find someone, but at this time, this guy was probably...

He glanced at his sister's back, then shrank into an alley nearby with a guilty conscience.

……

In the main city of Melendell, there is the brothel called Sleepytown.

Ignoring the receptionist's questions, Luo Wei walked straight to the room. After opening the door, he saw Goodman, who was well dressed, lying on the bed and snoring loudly, with two succubi fanning him next to him.

"Oh, is he a very cute boy?"

"This uncle is so weird, he never gives us any energy, but I can't help it~"

What are you doing?
Looking at the two succubi walking towards him from the left and right, their eyes full of unsatisfied desires, Luo Wei just took a step back when he bumped into the receptionist who came over from behind, and his arm sank into her.

"Oh...oh, sorry, sir. We respect our guests' privacy here," the receptionist said, holding his arm without hesitation. "If you are looking for a girl, I can arrange it for you."

Luo Wei turned around with a pale face, and the receptionist's face suddenly froze.

So... so handsome...!
"Well... although I'm the receptionist," should we say she wanted to pity him, the receptionist's heartbeat quickened as she reached forward to clamp his hand and hugged him tighter, "but if it was you... I would be happy to make an exception and provide you with the best service..."

The other two succubi also came forward, and the three of them sandwiched him in the middle, and their movements immediately became restless.

"go out."

Luo Wei grabbed their extended hands with a cold expression.

If his sister knew that he left her behind to go to a brothel, she would chase him around and beat him to death.

After kicking out the two succubi and the receptionist, who looked at him with regret, Rowe closed the door and looked at Goodman, who had woken up and was looking at him with a gloating expression.

"I'm paying you to stay here as a hotel?"

"The most important thing is the experience," Goodman said with a smile, "Isn't it good to have someone to take care of you when you sleep?"

You are being served.

For a succubus, this is simply torture. Are you here to torture other races?
"Tell me," Goodman sat up and smiled, "You must be here to see me for something urgent, right?"

Luo Wei restrained his expression and sighed.

He had not originally intended to ask about such matters with the current gods. After all, the "World Salvation Tea Party" was actually an organization of the ancient gods. Except for the "Water Purification Goddess", who switched from a local god to the current god camp, the other four were all ancient gods, and there was even the supreme god of the ancient gods.

"I want to know—"

He looked at the other person, intending to ask in a tactful way.

"Do you know the "Empress" Bai Yejin?"
