Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery.

Chapter 162 The Conspiracy of the Loen Royal Family

Odysseus' counterattack caught the "arsonists" and their men somewhat off guard.

If I had known this guy was so bold as to counterattack a Sequence 6, I should have attacked him and injured both of them.

But for the "arsonists", it is too late to fight on two fronts and they can only break out as soon as possible.

This gave Hugh and Odysseus an opportunity. With the help of the silver axe, Odysseus's "witchcraft" successfully hit the "arsonist", forming a layer of rust-colored mucus on his body surface.

The "arsonist" suddenly felt his joints stiffen, and every movement became slow and laborious.

Call ~
He immediately summoned flames, burning his skin all over.

In addition to burning the clothes, it was also burning the mucus.

But Odysseus continued his attack. He sprinkled a handful of blue powder, and the air was suddenly filled with a cold wind, and even the flames summoned by the "Arsonist" became dim.

The icy gale eventually blew towards one of the arsonist's legs, freezing it and completely depriving the arsonist of any possibility of escape.

The "psychic" was still hesitating whether to come back to rescue, but after seeing the "arsonist" suffered one blow after another, he quickly abandoned the "arsonist" and followed closely behind the "conspirator" to try to break through.

On the other side, Odysseus and Hugh caught up with the "arsonist". Hugh took out a blue axe and threw it at the "arsonist".

The "arsonist" quickly summoned the "blazing white spear" and nailed the axe in the distance.

The "ice and snow bomb" exploded, and the ice formed did not affect the "arsonist".

Odysseus took advantage of this opportunity to quickly approach and sprinkled a handful of black powder. The powder instantly condensed in the air, forming seven small javelins that stabbed towards the "arsonist".

The "Arsonist" immediately summoned the "Fire Crow" to block it. After the "Fire Crow" touched the "Javelins", it immediately ignited those metallic javelins and blocked the momentum of the javelins.

But Odysseus behind him sprinkled another handful of powder, and the seven javelins burning in flames seemed to have received a huge boost again, dragging the flames and piercing in front of the "arsonist".

The "arsonist" quickly summoned a "fire wall" to block it, but it was too late. All seven spears pierced his body, some hit his head, some hit his heart, and the other five also hit his chest and abdomen.

The "arsonist" grabbed the spears with his flaming hands and tried to pull them out of his body.

But his body could no longer support him and he fell to the ground.

Only when the "arsonist" began to twitch did the javelins turn back into black powder.

Odysseus pulled the Arsonist's hair and said, "Let's go and meet up with Fors first."

At this time, the "arsonist" was still burning with flames, but these flames could not harm the "arsonist's" body for the time being.

Gunshots were heard at the edge of the park, and the breakout of the "conspirators" and "psychics" began.

Odysseus had no intention of getting involved and decided to take the spoils he had gained so far first.

……

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of western Backlund.

Call ~
A ball of fire suddenly ignited in a sparsely populated forest. Then the flame grew bigger and three figures walked out of the flame one after another.

The flames then died down and the surroundings became dark again.

The three people identified the direction and ran quickly towards a hill.

Suddenly, a female voice came from the front: "No fire is allowed here."

The three leaders walking in front raised their hands, and suddenly, flames burned all around them.

However, these flames were affected by unknown reasons and the burning momentum was not very strong.

The leader clenched his fists and roared, and the flames on his body suddenly became more intense.

Call ~
Fires also broke out in the surrounding woods. The flames seemed to be burning something, gradually growing bigger and bigger, and finally the "prohibition" was "burned".

At this time, the female voice said again: "This is a forest area. Those who set fire should be punished!"

Behind the leader, whose body was burning with flames, a series of illusory whips with caltrops appeared and whipped the leader's back, instantly tearing his skin and flesh.

The leader seemed to be unaware of the pain. While being whipped, he laughed and said, "Georgina, when did your 'Law' become as weak as a tickle?

"Did our sudden appearance here make you panic?"

After the whip was applied, the wound on the leader's back was so deep that the bone was visible, but when a burst of fire passed, the leader's back was surprisingly intact.

Not far ahead, a female figure in an evening gown appeared. It was none other than the demigoddess of the Loen royal family, Georgina Augustus.

She smiled and said, "Chikov, don't you realize that you have fallen into our ambush?"

The leader named Chikov smiled and said, "No, no, no, you have completely misunderstood the situation.

“Whether our actions were successful or not, it proves that there is something wrong with the hill ahead.

"Let me guess. There must be an important building hidden there that you secretly built, otherwise you wouldn't set an ambush here."

Chikov was one of the deputy directors of the "Berkoning Intelligence Bureau" of the Feysac Empire. Last month, the spy agency established by "Berkoning" in Backlund, as usual, bought a piece of inexpensive intelligence from an informant of the "Manufactured Punisher".

After this information was passed back to the General Administration, it immediately attracted the attention of the director.

It was during a secret meeting that Chikov learned that the intelligence contained important information. The missing homeless man they had previously issued a mission to find in Backlund was secretly sent to the vicinity of this hill.

The director analyzed that there must be an important building secretly built by George III here, and there must be a big conspiracy brewing in the Kingdom of Loen.

Chikov was then sent to Backlund to confirm whether there was an important building near the hill.

Some time after arriving in Backlund, Chikov planned an attack on Hugh, using it to attract the attention of MI9. He then personally led his men to investigate near the hill.

If their investigation goes well, they will be able to determine whether there is that important building here.

But if they were ambushed, it means there is definitely something wrong here, and the important building is most likely nearby.

Otherwise, the Kingdom of Loen might set up an ambush in the city and search the entire city for Chikov, but it would be impossible to set up an ambush in such a remote place.

In other words, if the hill was intact, the Loen royal family would not have known Chikov's goal and could not have ambushed him there in advance.

Chikov was going to gamble his life to complete the mission. Georgina, dressed in an evening gown, suddenly smiled and said, "You can search as much as you want, because this is just an ordinary hill."

Chikov sneered, "Then may I ask, what are these demigods of the Loen royal family doing here on this 'ordinary hill' so late at night?"

"Of course I'm here to wait for you!" Georgina smiled. "When we learned you were looking for someone from Backlund to investigate the missing homeless man, we understood your intentions."

The simple purpose was to find out the approximate location of King George III's tomb based on the whereabouts of those homeless people.

Of course, the news about the mausoleum was so advanced that even Chikov didn't know what those "important buildings" represented.

"So we used that Mandated Punisher's informant to release some information," Georgina explained patiently, "and waited for you to verify it.

"When we learned that you were going to attack the MI9 informant named Hugh Dilchar, we guessed that your action was about to begin.

"So we waited for you here early, and then we eliminated you here.

“Then your superiors will think there must be something wrong with this hill.

“At the critical moment, they will attack this hill, and then they will find that there is nothing here.

"And we have taken advantage of this opportunity to complete our plan..."

The more Chikov listened, the more frightened he became. He never expected that all this was a trap set by the Loen people.

He realized that he had to break out and bring back the news.

Chikov no longer cared about his two subordinates at this time. He immediately turned into a ball of fire and flew away at the fastest speed.

Georgina slowly placed a crown made of thorns on her head, and then balls of pure light appeared from the crown, eventually converging into a "sea of light".

A blazing white spear appeared in Georgina's hand. She threw it lightly, and the spear flew out at a speed much faster than Chikov, nailing the deputy director of "Bekoning", the "Iron-Blooded Knight", to the ground.

Chikov screamed and tried to burn the blazing white spear with flames, but it was useless. The crown on Georgina's head was a Level 0 sealed artifact in the possession of the Loen royal family.

The "Spear of No Darkness" thrown by Georgina is at the level of an angel, and as a Sequence 4 Chikov certainly cannot escape.

bang~
As the "Gun of No Darkness" exploded, Chikov was also blown to pieces.

Georgina immediately stepped forward, raised her hands high, and made a gesture of embracing the sun. A huge beam of light descended, purifying the spirit of the "Iron Knight" amid Chikov's screams.

After five or six seconds, the demigod's spirit shattered and completely disappeared from this world.

Afterwards, Georgina went to purify the spirits of Chikov's two subordinates, but she was still not at ease, so she eliminated all the natural spirits around her before taking off the crown on her head.

Several demigods of Loen left one after another, and the place became dark and quiet again. Then, an illusory figure emerged on the hill.

That was Bernadette, who had been paying close attention to this matter. She had many secret techniques to hide herself, and the demigods of the Loen royal family did not discover her.

She glanced at the place that had just been burned by the intense light from a distance, raised her hand, and a pair of illusory wings appeared behind Bernadette and surrounded her.

In the blink of an eye, the wings dissipated and Bernadette disappeared.

……

Park near Tutva Street.

Odysseus and Xio brought the body of the "arsonist" to the park entrance. Fors was already holding a metal crossbow and killed the enemy who was injured by the wooden thorn and Xio's pistol.

Odysseus placed the bodies of the "arsonist" and his four subordinates together, waiting for the Beyonder characteristics to emerge.

Several Beyonder characteristics began to emerge one after another. At this moment, people from MI9 also came to search.

After seeing the extraordinary characteristics of the place and Odysseus and the other three, they immediately wanted to arrest the three of them.

Odysseus said, "Send the captain or section chief of your action team."

These members of "MI9" were just some "low-sequence" extraordinary people who were responsible for the peripheral search. The reason they wanted to arrest Odysseus and the other three was to seize those extraordinary characteristics so that they could claim credit after the operation.

After hearing what Odysseus said, some of them recognized that this was the "leader".

Throughout Backlund's intelligence community, the "Leader" was very famous, so after hesitating for a moment, these Beyonders smiled at Odysseus and the other three, and two members quickly went to find their captain.

During the waiting period, five extraordinary characteristics emerged one after another.

Odysseus said to Xio and Fors, “Let’s divide the spoils first.

"Based on the contributions made in this battle, I choose the spoils first, Xio second, and Miss Fors third."

Xio and Fors had no objection to this.

So Odysseus took the lead and picked up the heart-shaped "Arsonist" Beyonder characteristic first. Xio chose a Sequence 8 Beyonder characteristic, and Fors chose a Sequence 9 Beyonder characteristic.

In the second round of division, Odysseus took away a Sequence 8 level Beyonder characteristic, and Xio took away the last Sequence 9 level Beyonder characteristic.

In fact, when Fors was choosing the spoils, she could have chosen the Sequence 8 Beyonder characteristic, but she felt that she had not made any contribution, so she only took the Sequence 9 characteristic.

Faced with the three men dividing the spoils, the surrounding members of "MI9" could only stare blankly, and no one spoke out to stop them.

There was nothing they could do about it. The strongest member among them was only a Sequence 8, and the "leader" and others had killed five Beyonders in the battle just now!
In the extraordinary world, strength is always the best guarantee of security.

After dividing up the spoils, Danesi, the operations section chief, arrived with a smile on his face: "Mr. 'Leader', thank you for your help again. You have eliminated five enemies for Rune.

"Please hand over their remains to us, and I will definitely arrange a generous reward for you."

Odysseus, however, cursed: "You idiot, you have been kicked in the head by a donkey. Did the dog promise me that he would protect Miss Xiu's safety?"

Danesi's smile remained undimmed. "If you don't hand over those relics, I will write in the report that you colluded with the enemy, disrupting our encirclement and allowing important enemies to escape."

Although the conversation between the two people did not seem to be about one issue, they were actually talking about one thing: Danesi wanted those extraordinary characteristics.

Odysseus scolded him for being untrustworthy and said the so-called generous reward was not credible at all.

Danesi began to threaten Odysseus, saying that if they did not hand over those extraordinary characteristics, they would be charged with "collaborating with the enemy."
