  Chapter 159 Angel Feather

   "I can only send you here."

   Katerina led Ji Xun all the way down to the viewing platform on the second floor.

   It is impossible for her, a young lady of the Lionheart family, to send a male guest out.

  Seeing this, Ji Xun bowed gentlemanly and said, "Thank you Miss Carter."

Katerina chuckled disapprovingly, and said: "If you are not dead, thank you next time. I think you should consider how to get out first. The things in your hands are very sensitive, even if I send you here, You may not be able to escape."

  Ji Xun heard that there was no change in his expression, but he gracefully kissed his hand to say goodbye, and said with a grin: "Then. See you next time."

   Smiling, he looked at the silver mist rose in front of him, quietly stepped back a few steps, and his figure gradually merged into the darkness.

  Watching the person leave, an inexplicable complex emotion flashed across Katerina's crystal eyes.

   With a slight movement of her fingers, a gold coin was rubbed between her fingers. She thought of something, and her eyes became deeper and deeper.

   There are guards all around the lion heart family base camp.

  Ji Xun didn't go through the main entrance. Although he used the shadow dive to blend into the darkness, he was still discovered.

   Fortunately, the thief who jumped off the building before attracted the attention of most of the guards.

  Miss Katerina also obviously helped.

  Ji Xun escaped without any risk.

  He didn't dare to stay longer, changed his clothes in the dark, and dealt with the traces he left along the way.

   Soon, he came to the roof of an inconspicuous small building five blocks away.

  Ji Xun took out the item that he received in the banquet hall before, and began to think about it.

   This is a yellowed parchment scroll, which depicts a nine-pointed star formation and various mysterious symbols.

  Just looking at it, a sense of simplicity and mystery comes over us.

   "Antiquities from the Tarun Dynasty?"

  Ji Xun looked at the style of the spell, and it looked like a "seal" effect.

  The sheepskin scroll is just a wrapping, and there seems to be something else inside.

  It’s very light, and it’s like nothing.

   "What the **** is this?"

   Ji Xun was also a little curious.

   Cannot be contained, this thing is a proper high-level item.

  But he didn't untie the hemp rope on the sheepskin because of curiosity.

   After all, this is what the leader Yinyue asked to come out.

   It's best not to touch this thing now.

  Thinking of this, Ji Xun took out the silver moon mirror again, thinking about waiting for new instructions.

  However, before waiting for the leader of Yinyue, suddenly his eyes froze, he stood up and locked his eyes on another building.

   Suddenly a person appeared there.

  Mustache, hooked nose, wearing a deerstalker hat, wearing a brown cloak, with a tea-colored pipe dangling from the corner of his mouth, and a black umbrella with a silver handle in his hand.

   Just like a hunter's outfit can be recognized at a glance, this guy's outfit can also be recognized at a glance as a detective.

   Ji Xun also knew that this guy was coming for him.

   raised his head slightly.

  Under the light, the broad forehead shone slightly, and the pair of deep blue pupils shone with wisdom.

  Ji Xun saw this guy outside and immediately guessed who it was.

  Before, Xie Guozhong reminded that a very powerful detective came to Dragon City, named "Phantom Theft Hunter" Robin.

   That guy is a special adviser to the FBI, a true master of crime-solving who is said to only take on difficult cases.

   I didn’t expect to encounter this.

  If Xie Guozhong can say that he is very good, he must be very good.

  I am a "thief" after all.

   Seeing someone catching up, a normal person should have chosen to escape immediately.

   But when Ji Xun looked at this guy, a strong curiosity surged in his heart.

   If the opponent has the strength to crush, it is useless to escape; if not, don't worry about it for a while.

  The two stood on the roof and looked at each other tens of meters away.

  After being silent for a few breaths, Ji Xun tilted his head and glanced at him, and asked directly, "How did you find me?"

  He thought about it, and there were hardly any traces left along the way.

  If it wasn't for the parchment in his hand, there should be no flaws exposed.

  Hearing the question, the middle-aged man held his deerstalker cap on his head, as if he had seen through his thoughts, and said indifferently: "There are not only conventional methods for tracking. Coincidentally, I have mastered some unconventional methods."

   As he spoke, he opened the black umbrella in his hand and covered it over his head.

   A weird scene took place.

  The black umbrella completely covered the lights of the surrounding high-rise buildings. The black umbrella seemed to open an exit from hell, and countless tentacles with fangs and claws emerged from the umbrella. Those tentacles seem to capture the scents of various souls in the air, and a strange sound like a sizzling electric current can be heard beside the ear.

  In an instant, an evil aura exclusive to **** creatures permeated the surroundings.

   There is also an imperceptible mental fluctuation.

   Ji Xun became cautious for a moment, and he noticed that this guy seemed to have cast some spell.

  But looking at this familiar tentacle monster, he suddenly realized in his heart, and said: "It turns out that your Excellency has raised a **** species [Cthulhu Tentacle]."

  He had seen this creature once before.

  In Master Merlin's laboratory.

   But that end is much bigger than this one.

   This hellish creature can release psychic waves.

  Like a radar, it can identify a specific spiritual body within the locking range.

   No wonder I was discovered, it turned out that my mental power was locked.

  But this guy kept this monster in an umbrella, it is indeed a tracking artifact.

  Hearing this, the famous detective was also slightly surprised, looked at the octopus-like tentacle monster in the umbrella above his head, and said: "It's rare, Your Excellency is the first person I meet who knows the origin of my partner."

  “.”

  After Ji Xun recognized this guy, he suddenly didn't want to reveal his identity and started to do it.

   Compared with the parchment in his hand, his bigger trouble is the wanted criminal with a reward of over 100 million.

   And Xie Guozhong said that this guy was the one who was invited by the Cao family to investigate the murder of the two Governors of Innocence City.

  Once he takes out his werewolf form, he will definitely be recognized.

   Mess with such a famous detective, there will be endless troubles.

  But Ji Xun felt that since the leader of Yinyue asked him to bring things out, he would definitely come to meet them.

   Looking around, there were no pursuers around him, and this guy didn't do anything, just delaying for a while.

  However, Robin saw his purpose at a glance, and asked directly: "Do you want to delay the time? Oh, your companion is indeed here."

  “.”

  Ji Xun didn't speak, but after sniffing, he also smelled a more and more dead breath.

  Glanced out of the corner of the eye, in the alley downstairs, a hunchbacked figure slowly emerged from the mud.

   This guy is the backbone of the Silvermoon Sect, the old Duan of the "gravedigger".

  Ji Xun looked surprised in his heart: "This guy is not dead yet."

  The last time he was in Thunder Fortress, he watched the hunchback get pierced through the chest by Xie Guozhong.

   It is outrageous that he is still alive and kicking.

   But he was an enemy before, but now he is an undercover agent, so he is considered an accomplice.

   Seeing this person appear, Ji Xun also breathed a sigh of relief.

  Someone drew fire.

  Robin obviously recognized the identity of the old man Duan at a glance, and muttered: "So he is a member of the Silver Moon Sect. No wonder he can instigate the senior guard of the Lionheart family. This is a bit troublesome."

   Having said that, his expression showed no anxiety at all: "Unfortunately, I just need a little time to unlock the seal."

   As he spoke, he took out a card, and a six-pointed star array suddenly lit up under his feet, and lightly shouted: "Solution!" When Ji Xun heard this, his face changed slightly.

  He noticed something, and immediately took out the scroll hidden in his cuff.

  Looking at the incantations lit up on the scroll, he dropped the thing on the ground like an electric shock, and retreated violently.

  Like a grenade whose firing pin has been fired, once this seal is activated, it is irreversible.

   During his violent retreat, his eyes were fixed on the burning sheepskin scroll.

  Ji Xun originally thought there might be something dangerous inside.

  However, the parchment burned out in a blink of an eye, and he saw that it was actually a black feather wrapped inside?

   Enlightenment also fails to reveal what it is.

  But it must be something with an outrageously high level of law.

   Instead, as soon as this black feather was exposed to the air, a strong breath of light and evil intertwined overflowed.

   There is also a kind of blood coercion originating from higher creatures.

   Rethinking that this is something that the people of the Silver Moon Sect want to grab, a thought immediately flashed through Ji Xun's mind: "Could it be the feather of the weeping angel?"

  He felt the corners of his eyes twitch inexplicably.

  Thinking of the Holy Nail of Light and Darkness on his body, that weeping angel is still on his body!

  The black feathers floated in mid-air, and the hunchbacked old Duan also frowned.

  This is not the same as the plan.

However, at this moment, a spiritual message from the leader of Silvermoon suddenly came from the ears of the two of them: "I will hold back the people from the Lionheart family. You should find a way to get the things out of the city! This is about Arachne. Your Excellency's recovery plan must not be missed. Be sure to spare no expense!"

  Ji Xun listened and mentioned the name of the god, so there is no room for worry about this order.

   Before he hesitated, the old man Duan on the other side had already jumped up, making a gesture to hold the angel feather in his hand.

  But just before he touched it by a foot away, Lao Duan's expression suddenly changed.

  Because he saw a black flame burning in his palm.

  The hunchbacked old man immediately retreated.

  But at this moment, the entire palm has been burned.

  Old Duan was like a corpse, he didn't feel any pain at all, instead he just stared solemnly at the featherless man.

  Ji Xun looked at the fire on the feather, and felt very familiar: Hellfire?

  The famous detective obviously didn't intend to fight head-on, but just released the angel feather.

  As long as you can't take it away, the goal will be achieved.

   This Lion City is the territory of the Anka family, and after a while, experts will come over.

  Late changes.

  Ji Xun saw the feather, rolled his eyes, but thought a lot in his mind.

  Before, the light and dark holy nails and the light and dark cross were all related to angels.

  Now the Feather, the purpose of the Silvermoon Sect seems to be gradually clear.

   What's more, now that the names of the gods have been brought out, if I don't do anything as an undercover agent, I will be suspected immediately.

  He didn't hesitate much, and also rushed towards the feather.

  Because he had just watched the scene where the old man's arm was burned, Ji Xun didn't dare to be careless. When he stretched out his hand to reach over, the spell power surged, and a layer of black flame condensed on the palm of his hand at the same time.

   When advancing to the second level, the main material of "flesh and blood" for his professional card is [Red Baron's Devil's Holy Blood].

   This material allowed him to master the power of the meager blood of Hellfire.

  Three meters, two meters, one meter. One foot!

   Got it!

  Ji Xun planned to burn his palms through and use "Cell Activity Boiling" to forcibly take away the feathers.

  However, what he never expected was that he successfully held the feather.

   Didn't even feel any burning sensation.

"Huh?"

   Ji Xun was very puzzled.

  The flame on the feather is not just the high temperature on the physical level, but the law of burning.

  He is sure that his fire resistance and **** blood can't resist this level of damage.

   But why. There is no burning sensation at all.

  However, before the doubts flashed through his mind, a more miraculous scene appeared.

   As soon as Ji Xun held the feather, he suddenly felt as if his whole body was weightless and light.

   And not only was he light and fluffy, his whole body was about to fly.

   "What's the situation?"

  Ji Xun has the [Golden Ball of Power Gem] in his hand. He is very familiar with the feeling of gravity suddenly becoming heavier.

   But it became lighter, and it was the first time.

   And there is no harm from the feather, that is, he can take it away?

  The famous detective Robin not far away looked at his brows and frowned, apparently not understanding why this man could get this dangerous feather so easily.

  As an accomplice, Lao Duan was overjoyed and shouted: "You take your things and go first, I will hold them back!"

   When Ji Xun heard this, he didn't say anything nonsense.

  He took the feather and rushed towards the other side.

  However, after just two steps, because I am not used to the feeling of weightlessness, with a little effort, the whole person jumped 100 meters high!

   Instantly overlooked all the buildings in the entire city.

  However, as soon as the abnormal "flying target" appeared, the searchlights in the city also shone.

  Ji Xun quickly poured mana into the power golden ball, and the whole person fell down.

  But it was just this momentary experience of flying into the sky, he seemed to have discovered some fun.

  He jumped again, adjusted his direction, and shot towards the city wall.

   Originally, he jumped tens of meters, but now he is flying in the sky with ease, unable to stop.

   This novel experience made the corner of Ji Xun's mouth slightly curved, "Hahaha interesting."

   In a blink of an eye, he left the area where old man Duan was confronting the detective.

  Ji Xun watched the searchlight shine again, his feet exploded in the air, and the whole person changed direction rapidly in the air.

  Originally [Floating Kick] could only move short distances in midair.

  However, in this weightless state, he kicked two steps, and his whole body was like a shell fired from the chamber, flying far away.

   took off!

   Really took off!

  This feather is simply an escape weapon.

  Ji Xun originally thought that he had to transform into a werewolf to escape from the city.

   Looking at it now, it seems to be unnecessary.

  His flying speed couldn't even keep up with the searchlights. In a blink of an eye, he flew hundreds of meters through the wind.

   After a few jumps, he came under the wall.

   There is no need to go through the city gate at all, and the 100-meter-high city wall can be easily crossed with a single leap.

  Ji Xun looked at the brightly lit city and the shocked faces of the guards on the city wall, and grinned.

   Two hours later.

  In a ruined building outside Lion City.

  Ji Xun met the leader of the silver moon through the instructions sent by the silver moon mirror.

  In addition to the hunchbacked old Duan, there are also a few mysterious cloaked people here.

   Originally thought that there would be a fierce battle if they were discovered, but they didn't expect to be dismissed so easily.

  The leader of Yinyue looked at Ji Xun, nodded to show his approval, but didn't say much.

  Ji Xun also thinks that this old sect is very good. As long as the beliefs are the same, they will not pry into the privacy of members.

   No one asked him why he wasn't burned by the feather.

Now is not the time to talk, and the leader of Silvermoon also directly said: "The feather is about the recovery of Lord Arachne, and now I have it, and the release of the 'Mausoleum of the Mad King Augustus' will also be put on the agenda. Recently, our mission is to crack the seal of the last Silver Moon Altar and find the remnant of the Weeping Angel."

   Upon hearing the opening, Ji Xun immediately realized that he seemed to have participated in a high-level meeting of the Silver Moon Sect.

   Calvin, that’s all I’ve written today.
