Guild Boss's Ambition

"You go in first, be careful of those invisible enemies."

"Huh? Okay."

I didn't have much hesitation about Miss Bai Ye's order. Her words surprisingly made me feel at ease. I believed that she would not risk my life. Even if it was a risk, it was a risk that was in line with my principles.

Carefully holding the shield in front of me, I moved forward step by step into the pharmacy, while Miss Bai Ye held a staff with a bayonet, inspecting the surroundings while casting stealth magic for both of us - we didn't dare turn on the lights until we were sure that there was no danger in the house. According to Miss Bai Ye's prediction, the enemy was very likely to have no form.

sound……

odor……

temperature……

Touch...

I tried to use senses other than vision to detect the situation inside the house. The house had two floors. The lower floor was an abandoned and dusty shop, and the upper floor was a residence. Judging from the traces at the scene, this house should be inhabited by a man and a woman, and the relationship between the man and woman was very close. The two different rooms were filled with a mixture of daily necessities for the boy and girl.

After searching the carpet thoroughly, Miss Bai Ye felt comfortable turning on the crystal chandelier she had brought with her into the house.

"Miss Bai Ye, where is this place?" I asked.

"Where the devil has been."

Miss Bai Ye explained with a smile, "Although Green Willow's men and I have read the prisoner's memory, the magician responsible for reading the memory did not take into account the details of the entire memory. In the prisoner's memory, the Demon King contacted him through letters, but the fact is not the case. The Demon King Leia came to this room in person to contact him."

At this point, Miss Bai Ye casually lifted the mattress in the men's bedroom, and then took out a stack of stationery and explained: "Look at these stationery, and then look at the stationery on the table. Don't you think these stationery are written with the quill pen and ink on the table? But the strange thing is that the handwriting on the stationery is Saint Agatha's."

Since I know the whole story clearly, I couldn't follow Miss Bai Ye's explanation above at all.

"How does this help us in our search for Demon Lord Leia?"

Miss Bai Ye gently waved her staff and cast a magic with unknown effect. She said with a smile, "Body fluids, hair, fingerprints, skin, etc. are all common methods used by Mr. Green Willow and other human trackers. As a countermeasure against tracking, as long as we spread these personal physical characteristics to all parts of the world in advance, the tracking will fail due to too many tracking results."

As she spoke, Miss Bai Ye placed another piece of white paper on the desk in the men's bedroom. The white paper was ordinary white paper, but as time went by, some tiny threads and fluffs gradually gathered on it. I didn't dare to move, but just observed them from a distance. Against the pure white background of the paper, their shapes suddenly became clear, and they felt like some fiber materials of clothes.

"Ms. Raftan, if you were the saint who took over the demon king's body, would you still wear the saint's clothing?"

"No, I will change my clothes, preferably clothes that can cover my appearance."

Miss Bai Ye nodded in agreement and focused on the fibers on the white paper. It was unknown what method she used, but she classified and gathered all the different types of fibers in different locations. At the end, she simply swept most of the fibers to the ground and discarded them, leaving only three groups of fibers of different colors.

Next, Miss Bai Ye used three groups of fibers to perform tracking magic.

I have also learned this magic in class, but since it is a low-level course and I seldom have the opportunity to actually use it, both the spell formula and the detailed application principles are now only vague and mottled impressions in my mind. Now that I think about it carefully, this tracking magic is indeed a skill that an adventurer needs to master.

In the end, Miss Bai Ye only kept two groups of fibers.

She didn't explain the process, but went straight to the result: "Although we are not absolutely sure that the owner of these fibers is Demon King Leia, it is not advisable to just rely on Green Willow and the others to succeed in fishing. Oh, oh, oh, what should we do? It's scary to think that we can only rely on the two of us to adjust the Demon King's lair──"

Miss Bai Ye's tone was quite normal at first, but it became so exaggerated in the second half that it made people dumbfounded.

Suddenly!

A chill crept up the back of my neck, and I followed my instinct and swung my sword backwards.

All I saw was a fox girl in black clothes vaguely grasping the blade of the cross sword with her bare hands.

At that time, Miss Bai Ye also spoke in a cheerful voice: "Raftan, don't be nervous, let down your guard. Let me introduce you to Mr. Lin En, who has been following us from the Temple of Life and Death. No, no, no, with your current coquettish and feminine posture, we should call you Miss Lin En, right?"

The black-clothed fox lady, who was called Miss Lin En by Miss Bai Ye, snorted coldly and said fiercely: "Bai Ye, just tell me the target location. Our military will take care of the rest for the Church of Light. You don't need to worry about it."

military?

Hearing this term, I frowned comfortably.

Having experienced the wrath of nature, it is hard for me to have a good impression of this government organization.

but……

Nor can we completely deny the necessity of its existence.

46. ​​Threesome (Raftan)

(Raftan-Fritze)

"Raftan, please step aside for now."

"learn."

Under Miss Bai Ye's instructions, I lowered the cross sword and retreated to the lower left of Miss Bai Ye.

This position can take care of our back and the non-dominant left wing at the same time.

Judging from Miss Bai Ye’s tone, this woman named Lin En is not necessarily our companion.

As for Lin En's extraordinary request, Miss Bai Ye gave a strong reply: "I'm sorry, we can't withdraw at this stage. Since I have made an investment, I must get the final results. You should know how attractive a demon king-level devil is to me. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Hearing this, the black-haired and black-clothed fox girl replied coldly: "Demon King Leia is also her target."

Miss Bai Ye said, "Huh? Why does Corvina want a demon?"

Lin En glanced at me sharply and said coldly, "I don't know either, but I don't think you will end up well if you snatch the toy from her. You should be very familiar with her style of doing things."

At this time, Miss Bai Ye compromised: "Then let us follow you and see what happens, right?"

Lin En replied coldly: "You can follow me if you want, but I won't protect you. If you become an obstacle to my actions in the process, I will exclude you without hesitation."

"No matter which Lin En is, he is a heartless guy──"

Miss Bai Ye smiled and sighed, then handed the two small paper bags wrapped in fiber to the other party: "The target location is the ruins of the water world. The ruins have not been rebuilt yet. You can use two sets of different fiber objects and double-line tracking techniques to obtain a more accurate location. Finally, I don't recommend that you go directly to find the moving coordinates."

Moving coordinates? Demon King?!

I couldn't help asking, "Where are the moving coordinates?"

Hearing this, Lin En gave me a playful smile and said, "In the area near the Temple of Life and Death. Right now, the man named Lvliu is leading 400 beginner priests and mid-level paladins out of the Temple of Life and Death. Is he trying to pretend that he has successfully unlocked the suppressed magic weapon? Even if he succeeds in luring out the Demon King, these people alone can't keep him!"

"Four hundred beginner priests and mid-level paladins?" I asked doubtfully.

Lin En first glanced at the silent Bai Ye, and then said to me: "In the underground world that you don't know, your Church of Light has set up many teleportation arrays. Using these magic arrays, you can secretly mobilize manpower. Now, the Temple of Life and Death where you were stationed just now has been emptied on the surface, and all the elite combat forces have retreated to the deepest part of the temple and are lying in ambush."

I said anxiously, "We should inform Bishop Bartholomew and his men of this information!"

"Don't worry." However, Miss Bai Ye held the opposite view from me: "Lvliu's plan already assumed the existence of the enemy, and even if Barsalom and the others knew the location of Demon King Leia, their plan would still be to defend the Temple of Life and Death and lure Demon King Leia into a trap from which he could not escape."

I asked, "Will the other party fall for it?"

Bai Ye and Lin En looked at each other and said at the same time: "Probably... not."

Miss Bai Ye led us out of the house while explaining: "Unless one has absolute strength, a person with normal logical thinking will not take the initiative to participate in a gamble with unknown chances of winning or losing. Unlike humans, demon kings have infinite lifespans. They can slowly wait for the right time. There is no need to rush."

"So, what is the moving coordinate..."

I still don't understand.

Miss Bai Ye also patiently explained: "Observe and collect intelligence? If you were the devil, and someone outside was mobilizing a large army to stage such a big show for you alone, wouldn't you want to take a closer look? Moreover, any good liar needs a lot of intelligence. Only by knowing more than anyone else can you use the flaws in people's hearts to mislead others."

At the end of the conversation, fox lady Lin En suddenly spoke in a sarcastic voice: "So your Miss Bai Ye has always been the one who actively collects intelligence! Dear Miss Raftan, if you don't want to be used, then stay away from this vicious woman next to you as soon as possible. She will not bring you any benefits, but will only make everyone unhappy."

Despite Miss Lynn's vicious criticism, Bai Ye still walked straight forward.

She seemed to pay no attention to what I was thinking.

This is really nothing to worry about.

Rather than saying that Miss Bai Ye is suspicious, isn't this fox girl Lin En who suddenly appeared even more suspicious?

I simply ignored Lin En's distance, quickened my pace, and followed closely behind Miss Bai Ye.

Seeing my performance, Lin En sneered at me again: "Someone has been completely trained to be a loyal dog──"

hateful!

Want to hit her!

"Cultivate...cultivate..."

Secretly alert to my own virtue, I continued to pretend not to hear.

After entering a dark passage, Miss Bai Ye drew a teleportation array diagram in the same way.

According to my inherent knowledge, space teleportation is a magic that cannot be used repeatedly in a short period of time, but Miss Bai Ye always seems to be an exception among exceptions. She quickly drew the magic array, and then used only a low-level space magic stone to fill the entire array with magic power, and did not chant any spells when activating the array.

There was another flash of light, and the three of us were teleported into a building.

After arriving, Bai Ye explained: "This is the library two blocks away from Water World."

Lynn chuckled and asked, "Leaving a teleportation point in the public library, is it used to steal books?"

Bai Ye covered his mouth and smiled: "Why do I have to steal? If I have the information I want, can't I just teleport myself to the library? And I am also a VIP member of this library. Many rare books here are donated in my personal name. Even if this space array is discovered by the library, they will not say anything."

Hearing this, Lin En pretended to look down on him and said with a smile, "Using the greed of the human race to satisfy one's own selfish desires is truly a devilish act. If a priceless and unique copy of the book appeared in the Japanese museum one day... Hehe, I think Miss Bai Ye, you will definitely try your best to turn it into something that belongs only to you, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? I am a law-abiding citizen."

Miss Bai Ye said this with her chest puffed out, then she climbed out of the window like a thief and jumped out of the library.

Following her, I peeked out the window and was surprised to find that the ground was a hundred meters away from my feet.

"I wouldn't get hurt if I jumped straight down, but the sound when I landed..."

Wearing heavy armor, I stood in front of the window and began to worry. Lin En, who was standing behind me, could see through my inner thoughts at once. She pushed me impatiently and said, "Don't think too much. Just jump down. Bai Ye will catch you. Don't you trust her?"

"Ah."

I took another deep look at the black-clothed fox lady and saw that her eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as picturesque. Even a loose, light silk dress could not hide her graceful figure. The contours of her face were suitable for anger. Whenever she was angry or proud, her eyebrows and red lips always had a hint of coquettishness. She was an extraordinary woman who was extremely confident in her own talent and ability.

After seeing the beauty, I stepped over the window frame and jumped down to the ground.

Long!

The strong wind during the high-speed descent suddenly made a rumbling sound in my ears.

But halfway through, an invisible force like the wind lifted me up in the air, allowing my body to slowly descend.

"Thank you, Miss Bai Ye."

"Flying magic? No... Quite the opposite. It's a variation of the no-fly spell."

I don't know how Miss Lin, who jumped later than me, actually reached the ground one step earlier than me. She was very interested in analyzing the spell that Bai Ye cast on me. However, her analysis only made the necromancer roll his eyes and criticize him unhappily, "Instead of studying my magic here, you might as well go investigate and explore the way."

"I slowed down my pace because I was worried that you couldn't keep up with me."

"Actually, I prefer that you make sure the environment is safe before we start exploring."

"You are so heartless, Miss Bai Ye. Aren't you worried that something might happen to Yu?"

"Anyway, the seven clones didn't all die at once, so your erotic body will still be resurrected, right?"

Miss Lin En said with a hurt look on her face: "Death is very painful..."

Miss Bai Ye stopped at a street corner in the ruins of the water world and said coldly, "Isn't that great? At least it can make you experience the existence of reality a little bit and do less boring and stupid things."

"hehe."

Miss Lynn chuckled twice, then continued to move forward after the two of us stopped. Her movements were very strange, and she could walk a long distance with just one step, as if she was constantly using a short-distance teleportation spell, but there was not a trace of magical fluctuation leaking out of it, which not only made people confused, but also made me feel uneasy.

Perhaps I was not good at hiding my emotions, Miss Bai Ye immediately noticed my doubts.

She smiled and explained, "That's the inherent characteristic of living things. Do you know the Moon-Dark Fox? We can also see a similar way of moving in this kind of fox. The nature is not spatial, but illusion. As long as we can grasp the time difference, even if we hit a place that looks like there is only air to the naked eye, we may still be able to successfully hit the Moon-Dark Fox."

"Is Miss Lin En a sub-human fox?" I asked, watching the black-clothed woman's disappearing figure.

"She—"

Miss Bai Ye showed a curious expression and said in an expectant tone: "I'm not sure what it is, but compared to monsters and demi-humans, it is more like a ghost or immortal, right?"

47. Holy Demonic Element (Raftan)

(Raftan-Fritze)

After about five minutes, Miss Bai Ye started walking again and led me forward.

As we moved, we seemed to lack the tension that we should have when searching for a demon king.

At this time, the plum rain had stopped long ago, but there were still puddles of varying depths on the stone ground. Between the puddles, Miss Bai Ye carefully placed her steps on the protruding slabs without water stains. In fact, she only needed to cast a simple levitation spell to ignore all the puddles and pass straight through this section of the road without getting her shoes wet.
