Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 282: Infiltrating the Red Thorn (Part )

Huangfu Zuoren felt extremely frightened. He was not worried about a head-on confrontation, but what he feared most was that he would have a head-on conflict with the opponent before he was fully prepared. He hadn't even figured out the bottom line of this Mr. Trump!

Huangfu Zuoren looked outside again hoping for a lucky break, and saw Xia Shouzhen walking towards him!

He just walked straight towards me!
"I knew it!"

He should have thought that the test task assigned by the old man in the mountain could not be so simple.

Huangfu Zuoren retreated into the bell tower and took out the shadow dagger from the box. He also took out the reasoning notes given to him by Prince Carter and quickly wrote down everything he had just seen.

As long as you keep recording the target's behavior, the more detailed it is, the more accurate the predictions made in the subsequent reasoning notes will be.

This is an extremely powerful and strange forbidden object, and it can be regarded as the strangest type among forbidden objects. On the one hand, the abnormality level of the person who uses it cannot be higher than level three, otherwise the text written will not be effective. But on the other hand, the reasoning notebook itself can predict things with a very high abnormality level and be extremely accurate.

This kind of prediction has a flavor of causality. Once it appears, it will definitely happen.

For spies and assassins, forbidden objects like deduction notebooks are equivalent to holy relics.

Huangfu Zuoren's pen moved quickly as he wrote down everything he saw.

But he didn't know that much about Xia Shou. He had only started monitoring Xia Shou not long ago, and the material available for recording was very scarce. The reasoning notes might not be able to predict the other party's next move.

[The other party seems to have some ability to sense detection, but he seems confused. Maybe he didn't accurately perceive that you were peeping. ]

Huangfu Zuoren frowned slightly, savoring the predictions given in his reasoning notes.

The predictions in reasoning notes are very rigorous. When the notes give an answer in an affirmative tone, then that result is bound to occur. But many times, notes will use a lot of "seems" and "as if" to describe opinions, as they do now. This is the result of insufficient reasoning material.

Huangfu Zuoren clenched the shadow dagger in his hand, threw the reasoning notes back into the box, picked up a birdcage woven from copper wire, and pressed his body tightly against the wall, like a poster stuck on the wall.

He closed his eyes and sensed carefully. When his concentration reached its utmost, the three-dimensional perspective structure of the clock tower appeared in his mind.

Sounds, vibrations, and slight external influences became the material for projection in his mind. He saw through the clock tower where he was and locked onto Xia Shou who had just stepped into the clock tower!

But the feedback from the senses was not accurate enough after all, and this kind of fictional perspective created by the brain was not necessarily consistent with reality. Because of the distance, Huangfu Zuoren could not see Xia Shou's detailed movements. He even found it difficult to tell which blurry figure was the real Xia Shou. His intuition only told him that the one who stopped was him.

Xia Shou had already walked a hundred meters to the entrance of the bell tower.

"It's really strange." Xia Shou frowned at the red line that went up along the stairs under his feet.

He didn't think that the target at the end would pose much of a threat to him. Judging from the brightness and thickness of the red line, the thing at the end was not deadly enough. Moreover, he had now given his two most important combat skills to Su Weiyu, and he himself had no abilities except the super fighting skills provided by the Scorpion Spine.

But even so, the times at the Red Line, the Sanatorium, and the Blood Demon House are far from comparable.

After he takes back the two superpowers that he lent to Su Weiyu, the thing at the end of his feet will most likely not be able to kill him.

What made Xia Shou feel strange was why the dead end that led to his own death was the clock tower instead of the Redthorn Manor. Could it be that the large group of vampires in the Redthorn Manor were not as dangerous as the thing on the clock tower?
"Could it be that those vampires won't kill me, so I'm seeking my own death and I think that's the least lethal?" Xia Shou pondered to himself.

He looked at the spiral staircase and didn't go up to explore it. Going up now would be pure death. If he wanted to go up, he would wait until Su Weiyu came back.

When Xia Shou turned and left, Huangfu Zuoren breathed a sigh of relief.

His plan was to record enough materials in the reasoning notes and improve the accuracy of the reasoning notes to 100% before assassinating Xia Shou. Now is far from the right time.

…………

Su Wei Yu sneaked into Red Thorn's mansion. This place was a very suitable environment for vampires to live in. All the window panes were equipped with movable partitions. During the day, these metal partitions were all lowered and locked, covering all the windows, and a large number of candles were used for indoor lighting.

The main gate of the mansion is also a double door. The ten-meter-high gate is tightly closed during the day, and only a narrow door about one person high and one person wide is provided for people to enter and exit, which limits the exposure to sunlight to the greatest extent.

When Su Wei Yu walked into the door and passed through the long and narrow corridor to the hall, it was like walking from day into night. It was bright inside, but the light came from countless candles. Hundreds of candles were burning on the chandelier above her head, like a yellow starry sky.

The four towering walls were carved with mysterious runes. The candlelight violated the normal diffraction rules and became soft, with no blind spots, illuminating every corner of the mansion.

Su Weiyu spread out her five fingers, placed her palm on the handle of Tong Ziqie's knife, and walked slowly on tiptoe.

She looked around carefully. The pale blood servant carrying cutlery floated by silently like a ghost, and no one saw her.

It seemed as if the vampires had just passed a lively dinner party last night, and all the servants were cleaning up the leftovers and messy plates, as well as some corpses in extravagant clothes.

Su Wei Yu walked very carefully at first, and was a little nervous when she met the first real vampire. But when she realized that the other party obviously couldn't see her, she suddenly became braver.

Just as Xia Shou said, vampires are also human beings, at least the low-ranking vampires are human beings.

Su Weiyu ran around in the huge mansion and met very few vampires, but when she opened a bedroom door, she could see vampires sleeping soundly inside. And those vampires who were still awake looked tired and impatient, which showed that daytime activities were a kind of "staying up late" for them.

This is the same as most creatures.

Strangely enough, it is difficult to enhance the behavior of sleep by increasing physical strength. Ordinary people will feel sleepy if they stay up late, and world fitness champions are not much better than ordinary people if they stay up late. The macho men who practice idealistic martial arts in the Control Bureau also clamor every day to go to bed early and get up early for healthy muscles.

From this perspective, it is quite common for vampires to sleep during the day on time every day.

Su Weiyu trotted upstairs. Although she didn't know the route to the Vampire Library, she saw the Vampire Library floating above the manor from outside, so it was right to go up.

She climbed four or five floors in a row and finally reached the top floor. It was much quieter here, and Su Weiyu discovered that there were no low-level blood servants walking around on this floor. Those who came and went were high-level servants at the management level, and guarding the several hollow carved brown wooden doors were real vampires.

Su Weiyu once again placed her hand on the Tongziqi, thinking that she would not encounter a count-level vampire here.

She stopped at each door and looked inside.

The first room seemed to be a warehouse for storing extraordinary relics, with all kinds of strange objects piled up like a museum.

The door of the second room was not hollow and was tightly closed, but there was black blood stain in the gap below the door. It seemed that it was wiped every day, but the blood stain still seeped into the tiles and stained them.

The third room finally brought her to the library, but it was definitely not the vampire library of Grand Duke Rosa, because that library was floating in the sky and she had not found the entrance yet. However, the one in front of her could indeed be called a library.

Su Weiyu pushed the door open and walked in. She looked around carefully and saw a man sitting behind a large fan-shaped wooden table, reading a book.

"Could it be him?" Su Weiyu said to herself.

The person Xia Shou is looking for is the librarian, Fuland.

It is said that he is the owner of the 16th century Death Notes and also has a strange book.
