Only I can make them stronger

"Mr. Chu Rui looked like he had been here before and took us directly to the church in the center of the town."

"At first, the church door was closed, but as we approached, it suddenly opened."

"It was pitch black inside the church and we couldn't see what was inside the door."

"But just as we were about to get out the lighting equipment and go in, all the doors in the town suddenly opened."

"After that, many people were dragged into the church by some invisible entity. The black moon night isolated everyone's rationality, leaving no one with any power to resist."

"Except for me and Anko."

"Because both of us have a certain combat capability in an irrational state, Anko's factor weapon can be materialized for a short period of time and operate as a real weapon. I made a remote control for my mechanical dog, which can be easily controlled without irrationality."

"So we tried our best to escape in the car we came in with some of the researchers who had not been towed away."

"But halfway through the journey, some changes began to occur in An Ke. She began to roar at the air unconsciously, picked up a weapon, killed one of the researchers, and jumped out of the car to escape."

"I had no choice but to leave the car to the researchers and go after Anke alone. Later, I met Jinelle and Karen."

“I speculate that the reason for these conditions in Anke is her extremely high level of inspiration.”

"I'm afraid that something in Sunset Town affected her mind through inspiration, but I don't know what it is..."

Having said that, Canaanzi looked at Anke, who was holding his head tightly with both hands, with a look of fear on his fancy little face.

"Forget it, let's not let Anke..." Luo Qi felt really sorry for Anke's situation, so she quickly spoke up to stop the topic.

"I saw..." But Anke's voice interrupted her:

"I saw... pale monsters with four spider-like arms and opposite facial features... They hugged the researchers and dragged them into the church. My attacks were ineffective against them, so I could only try to dodge..."

Such a description made the expressions on everyone present complicated.

It’s scary just to think about it.

Only Xia Ye and Y had more complicated expressions on their faces. Not only had they seen them before, but Xia Ye had also driven away quite a few of them.

And Xia Ye became even more convinced that the House of Flesh and Blood and hidden beliefs were completely related.

"I also saw it... Don't come over here! Shut up!" At this time, An Ke's trembling voice continued to sound, but it was obviously getting more and more difficult. Finally, she suddenly screamed, as if she was frightened by something.

Seeing this, Xia Ye immediately ignited the healing fire and pressed it on An Ke's forehead.

"Hu...Hu..." After several seconds, An Ke began to breathe heavily. Her little face was pale and her pink lips had lost their color.

"I also saw a bloody man standing in the middle of the church."

"That person...the lower body is joined together, but the upper body is separate."

"Its two hands covered one eye and one ear of the other body respectively. When I looked over, the remaining two eyes looked straight at me..."

"Ahhh! No! I can't recall any more! Get out of my head!"

An Ke's description and her appearance made everyone feel cold all over, and a sense of horror quietly rose from the bottom of their hearts.

Xia Ye increased the amplitude of the healing fire to help An Ke eliminate the intrusion of hidden beliefs.

He seemed particularly calm at this moment, because he was the only one who knew who the "person" An Ke was talking about was.

That was Lori and Crona Priestess.

At this moment, the system prompt suddenly came:

【Notice! Notice! Notice! 】

[Common Bond Mission* appears]

[Mission name: Fight against concealment]

[Mission content: Kill [Lori and Krona]]

[Mission Reward: Remove the interference of Anke and Fiti's hidden beliefs, and the favorability of Anke and Fiti will increase]

[Note: This mission is a "*" type mission. This type of mission is extremely dangerous and is likely to cause casualties to the bond owner. Please treat it with caution.]

82. Fat Jack and Mercury

"Boom boom boom!"

"Wow!" Leah screamed.

There was a sudden knock on the door of the room, startling everyone who were already on edge.

"What's your name? It's me." Jinelle's puzzled voice came from behind the door, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm coming." Xia Ye responded with a wry smile, got up and opened the door, only to see Jinniel, still wrapped in thick protective clothing, standing at the door.

"Come with me, I have something to tell you. I'll be back in a moment." Seeing that it was Xia Ye who opened the door, Jinelle was too lazy to waste words and simply pulled him out of the room, leaving the person in the room looking at the door in confusion.

…………

As soon as she entered, Jinelle closed the door, looking very alert.

"What is so urgent?"

But Jinelle didn't say anything. Instead, she took out her phone and typed a few words: "Type to communicate."

"What's going on? Is someone eavesdropping?" Although Xia Ye was confused, he still typed and asked.

"Just in case... have you been attacked?"

"How do you know?" Xia Ye looked at Jinniel in surprise.

"I know who did it."

"who!?"

"Fat Jack."

“???” Xia Ye never expected this answer.

"Don't be silly, I'm sure it's him." Jinelle curled her lips and continued typing:

"When Canaanzi and I first met, he hinted at one thing—"

"The time when the Mercury Merchants Group was attacked is closely related to the Mercury Merchants Guild itself."

"Although I don't know why she thinks so, my intuition tells me that her judgment will not be wrong."

“That’s why I wanted to investigate this matter in the highway district.”

"And one thing that Fat Jack noticed was that after you left, a person whose life or death was unknown was sent to the hotel."

"A bald man was brought here by the law enforcement officer. He had been shot dead. From what I observed, it was probably the law enforcement officer who killed him."

Xia Ye opened his eyes wide and thought, can this be strung together?

That bald man, maybe he was the robber who attacked him in Linqimi before?

"And then?" he asked quickly by typing.

"Oddly enough, the marshal delivered the deceased man to Fat Jack, who promptly drove him away."

"Do you remember? Fat Jack once mentioned to us unintentionally that there is no special burial site in this town."

“So out of doubt, I followed.”

Xia Ye was convinced by this woman, Jinniel.

He remembered this sentence because when Karen was first brought in, the stretcher was covered with a white cloth, so Fat Jack "kindly" mentioned it.

I didn't expect that Jinniel would remember even such a casual remark.

"As a result, Fat Jack drove all the way to the edge of Highway Town, parked his car at the entrance of a small alley, and walked in with the body."

"For safety reasons, I did not follow him in, but soon after, Fat Jack came out with a box and quickly returned to the hotel."

"I remained hidden and observed the alley. About ten minutes later, a man came out with a cloth bag behind him. He quickly left Highway Town, and then I came back."

"What are the characteristics of that man?" Seeing this, Xia Ye frowned and typed.

"I can't see anything else, but he has a very ornate rapier on his waist. I think that's enough to indicate his identity."

It’s Qiu Rui, the leader of the Mercury Merchant Group!

Xia Ye remembered that Fat Jack once mentioned this person when chatting with them in the room.

Combined with what Giannis said, Fat Jack's actual description when he mentioned Qiu Rui was probably to prevent them from suspecting him in other ways.

There is no doubt that Fat Jack's way of lying mixed with truth is deliberately to make the conversation seem natural and real, so as to facilitate guiding them to act according to his words.

That is...

Go to Sunset Town!

Xia Ye took a breath. He really didn't expect that Fat Jack, who looked honest, enthusiastic and a little neurotic, would hide so deeply.

Under this premise of speculation, many things about Fat Jack will trigger some terrible guesses.

For example, why did he only take bullets for trading, and where did his "alien flesh" come from...

"I asked Canaan about the composition of the Mercury Merchants Group, so I was sure that Fat Jack had connections with the Mercury Merchants Group. So after returning to the hotel, I immediately started to analyze and calculate."

"Then I discovered something interesting—"

"There's someone missing from the hotel."

"What's so strange about one person being missing in the hotel?" Xia Ye was puzzled again.

"That person would appear in various locations in the hotel every time before. Sometimes he would pass by in the corridor, sometimes he would just come out of the bathroom, and sometimes he would sit in the lobby."

"I didn't notice him at first, but when I started to recall from the passengers' side, I found out about it... Don't doubt my memory, it won't be wrong."

"I mean every time."

Xia Ye thought about it and understood what Jinniel meant.

If Ginelle could see him every time, it meant that he could probably see Ginelle go out every time.

Jinniel...or all of them, are being watched!

After seeing Xia Ye expressed understanding, Jinniel continued typing:

"But when Fat Jack came back, I went out again and found that the man was gone."

"In the past few hours, no one has left the hotel for a long time except him and you."

"So I guess his departure may have something to do with you, and it's not a good thing."

"To confirm what I said, let me guess, is the one who attacked you a level 4 or higher spellcaster?"

"I can't tell the strength above level 4. It may be level 5, but the probability of reaching level 6 is not high... I don't think Fat Jack has the ability to command a level 6 esper."

"Congratulations, the answer is correct." Xia Ye took a deep breath and typed these words on his mobile phone.

Jinniel's speculation was completely correct.

This means that Fat Jack wants to kill them.

And now that they were back and the attackers hadn't come back yet, Fat Jack must have known something.

If nothing unexpected happens, an accident will happen again soon.

Xia Ye was really overwhelmed at this moment.

It seems that they can’t go to Sunset Town at the moment, and Fat Jack is still eyeing them covetously. What should they do?

Directly open the run?

So how do we solve the problem of hidden beliefs?

Just as Xia Ye was thinking about these things with a sad face, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Dear guest, I'm Fat Jack, could you please open the door?"

An enthusiastic voice came from outside the door.

83. The reason for being with you

Xia Ye, Jinniel and Karen, who had been wiping the giant sword in the room and not participating in their conversation, raised their heads at the same time and looked towards the door with serious eyes.

No matter how you look at it, Fat Jack's visit at this time is definitely not well-intentioned.
