MTL - Weird Deep-sea Game, I Can Fish Without Limit-Chapter 220 Inspiration from the Goddess of Life and Wisdom
September 23rd, the eleventh game cycle, Endless Sea World.
The bright sun at noon shines into the garden full of laurel trees.
The older fat butler wife looked at Miss Warner and the strange gentleman walking in front, and couldn't help worrying when she heard the maids' discussion.
"Who is that gentleman? In order to talk to him, the lady didn't even eat!"
"I don't know, but it must be an extraordinary person. Miss is interested in extraordinary people."
"But that man is only wearing a shirt, no coat, and it's dirty, too shameful!"
"Hey, our young lady is not the same, she is ashamed, I just reminded young lady to go to wash up in a low voice, but she ignored it."
"Miss, they just came from the outer city, what happened there?"
While several maids were discussing in low voices, a follower interrupted:
"I heard that something happened over there. Scary and strange insects are everywhere, some of them can fly, and many people died!"
"Huh? How could this be?"
"Strange bug? Why didn't we see it here? I went to the kitchen just now, and I didn't hear the people who bought it from the house?"
"Oh, I don't know about that."
The attendants also felt very strange, they were all in the same city, and some bugs could still fly, why didn’t they see them in the inner city?
"Maybe because we are in the inner city, those strange bugs are blocked by the city wall?"
The entourage scratched his head and guessed wildly, but then he changed the subject and said with certainty:
"But when Miss was at the school in the dock area, she must have encountered a strange bug.
And the lady just said that it was the gentleman who saved her. I guess it must be that the lady encountered a strange bug and was saved by that gentleman. "
"Is that gentleman very powerful?"
"I don't know, I only heard that people from the Ring of the Earth cleaned up bugs in the dock area."
The follower said what he had heard:
"I think that gentleman must be an extraordinary person from the Ring of the Earth, since he is from the Ring of the Earth, he must be very powerful.
Maybe his coat was lost when he rescued the lady. "
"Wow, I suddenly feel so romantic, like in a novel."
Said the maid who disliked wearing only a shirt just now.
"But, it's time to eat now, should we remind Miss to eat?"
A maid who was in charge of eating and drinking said something about eating again.
"I think the lady likes that gentleman very much. I remember that the lady has not been this happy for a long time. She talked a lot today."
"Yes, but should we tell the master about this, after all..."
"No need, Miss can have her own friends."
The housekeeper who had been silent interrupted them.
Sighing inwardly, the elderly housekeeper thought.
Mr. Warner once told her that he intends to make Mr. Rhine, who has the title of the king himself, his son-in-law.
Of course the older housekeeper would have no objections, but on the other hand, the housekeeper who watched the young lady grow up felt sorry for her own young lady.
Now is not the same as before. Young people can decide their own marriages, but the young lady is still arranged by the master, and there is no freedom in major life matters.
The housekeeper's wife has worked in Warner's family for decades, and she knows that even if Mr. Warner dotes on his daughter, she will let her do small things.
But when it comes to deciding the direction of his daughter's life, Mr. Warner will become extremely persistent.
It's like Chaofan who never lets her daughter come into contact with danger, or marrying someone.
Moreover, the housekeeper's wife once tested the young lady's tone. She felt that the young lady hated Mr. Rhine very much.
So at the moment, the housekeeper's wife decided not to tell Mr. Warner about the young lady's new friend.
Province, their father and daughter clashed again, and then prompted Mr. Warner to put the matter of marrying his daughter on the agenda.
…
"Don't you think it's weird?"
Looking at the quiet and beautiful sky, Li Feng said to Huang Yanyan:
"Why aren't there any bugs in the inner city?
Even if the Ring of the Earth and the guards are strictly on guard, there won’t be a bug in the inner city.
After all, some bugs can fly. "
"Indeed, it's weird."
Huang Yanyan thought about what she had seen and heard along the way just now, and she really hadn't seen any bugs since entering the inner city.
"So I think there must be someone controlling these strange bugs."
Li Feng said his guess:
"It's most likely the lava lord cocoon you mentioned."
Li Feng doesn't mind sharing what he has investigated with the official research institute.
He is not 100% sure to seal the cocoon. If the situation develops out of control, the more the research institute knows, the better.
"You mean... Cocoon is in Wind's Rest?"
Huang Yanyan was very surprised. She knew the content of X's mission and guessed whether Cocoon had something to do with Wind's Rest.
But even if he guessed it in advance, Huang Yanyan was still shocked.
Because it is a lava lord after all, a creature with too many unknowns that only exists in secret history.
"Hard to say."
Shaking his head lightly, Li Feng said frankly:
"It's also possible that he's at sea, or that someone is helping him revive.
I heard that the sea is not peaceful recently, maybe it has something to do with the cocoon. "
"It's not just the sea, Wind's Rest is not peaceful either."
Huang Yanyan thought about the possibility, and told Li Feng what she knew:
"There is a relic called the Fire Seal Orb, you only need to pay a small piece of raw meat that is not a fish, and it can help you deliver letters quickly.
In Endless Sea, official players use it to communicate with each other.
A few days ago, a colleague who lived on another island wrote to me that he said that someone had found several unusually strange corpses in a reef cave by the seaside of Wind's Rest.
The corpses didn't have any blood on their bodies, so they should be caused by some forbidden spells. "
Huang Yanyan said it normally, but Li Feng was secretly startled.
Myself or Haizan, how did the official players know about the bloodless corpse found in the reef cave?
Thinking quickly in his mind, Li Feng roughly thought of a possibility.
Since Huang Yanyan said that colleagues living on other islands wrote to her, it is likely that the official players learned about Kestrel when he reported the bloodless corpse.
So, there are official players in the headquarters of the Ring of the Earth?
Li Feng wrote down this point and continued to listen carefully to what Huang Yanyan said.
"So I infer that there are transcendents who use forbidden spells and hide in the city of Wind's Breath."
Huang Yanyan talked about her guess:
"Judging from the forbidden spells he uses, he is very likely to be a high-level soul eater."
Li Feng nodded slightly, agreeing with Huang Yanyan's judgment.
"But there is another thing, you know Governor Fell's illegitimate son, Jory."
Huang Yanyan lowered her voice and said to Li Feng mysteriously.
"Yeah. I know."
He was speechless, and Li Feng realized that he was about to hear the truth about Jory again.
Too many people have told him mysteriously about this thing he planned.
‘These eight achievements are my price. '
Li Feng laughed at himself, then adjusted his mentality of listening to gossip, and listened to Huang Yanyan's narration.
"I got some news that the cause of Jory's death was the same as that of the people who were thrown into the cave on the reef. They didn't have a drop of blood on their bodies."
Listening to Huang Yanyan's words, Li Feng realized that she really knew a lot.
Mathus the Soul Eater kills people to take blood, which is used to maintain his and the governor's soul fusion spell.
And I just took advantage of this, imitating Marthas's method, and killed Jory, which attracted the attention of all parties.
"Maybe it was done by one person, it was the Soul Eater."
Intentionally or not, Li Feng echoed and guided.
But Huang Yanyan shook her head obviously worried:
"It won't be one person. Based on my experience in criminal investigation, the person who killed Jory was imitating a crime."
Li Feng:!
‘Good guy, how did she guess it. '
"Copycat crime? Why?"
"Most of the targets selected by the soul eaters are foreigners. They have no social connections in Wind's Rest, and it is difficult to find people who are missing."
Huang Yanyan began to explain from her perspective:
"So it can be concluded that Soul Eater needs blood, but he pays attention to hiding, he doesn't want to be discovered.
But what about whoever killed Jory?
The governor's favorite child, the protagonist of the celebration party, is under the watchful eyes of all...
Although he has the same killing method as the soul eater, he is completely different in his focus on concealment.
This person feels as if he wants to make Soul Eater public. "
After Huang Yanyan analyzed it, Li Feng was in a complicated mood.
Indeed, his modus operandi can confuse the natives of the Endless Sea, but it is still too childish for Huang Yanyan, who has modern criminal investigation knowledge.
'Alas...why such a coincidence. '
Li Feng was in a complicated mood, and when he was thinking about whether to tell Huang Yanyan more, he heard Huang Yanyan say again:
"Actually, this is not the point. The point is that I saw the revelation of the goddess of wisdom and life in the candlelight. She told me who was the murderer who killed Jory."
"what?"
Li Feng was startled, and frowned subconsciously. Huang Yanyan was indeed a praying person, but what was the revelation in the candlelight?
"The light praying person is like this, praying to the goddess, and the goddess sometimes responds from the candlelight."
Seeing Li Feng was surprised, Huang Yanyan thought that Li Feng didn't understand Qiguangren, so she explained to him:
"Jory's death makes me feel very strange, but I can't investigate, so I can only try to pray to the goddess.
At first the goddess did not respond to me, but after I persisted for a few days, the goddess told me about the murderer by candlelight. "
"who is it?"
Li Feng asked hesitantly, he was a little confused.
Of course it was Hyzan who killed Jory with his own hands, but the mastermind behind the scenes...
When Li Feng asked, what did Huang Yanyan think of, and her brows frowned even deeper, as if she was in a bigger trouble.
She did not answer the question:
"Do you know that Rhine who has the title of the king?"
In the laurel garden in the afternoon, the autumn wind seemed to be still for a moment.
Li Feng's mind is in a mess, he doesn't know why things have developed like this.
"Did you...see him by candlelight?"
Li Feng asked, he didn't think it should be, because obviously Huang Yanyan didn't know that he was Rhine.
"That's not true, my rank is too low, and I can only feel some vague revelations."
Huang Yanyan explained, but soon she said with certainty:
"But I can confirm that it must be that Rhine who killed Jory. Even if he didn't do it himself, he is also the mastermind behind it."
"Why, what reason does he have to do this."
Seeing that Huang Yanyan found out the truth was a foregone conclusion, Li Feng asked back while deciding whether to tell Huang Yanyan the truth.
"I reported the enlightenment I got to my superiors, and they analyzed that Rhine is the king's man."
Huang Yanyan said, she, Qi Heng and other official players guessed the result:
"The king and the Fell family have always had some grudges. It is estimated that the kingdom asked Rhine to do this this time, killing the heir of the governor.
But it has been peaceful for many years, why the king suddenly attacked, I don't know.
However, through this incident, I found that Rhine is a very scheming and sinister person. "
Huang Yanyan bit her lower lip, looking worried, with a tone of crisis:
"Rhein not only killed Jory, but also destroyed Jory, even though Jory was a **** at all."
"What's the meaning?"
There were so many surprises today, it was hard for Li Feng to guess what else Huang Yanyan would find.
"As you may have heard, Jory is not Governor Fell's child.
The governor was very angry when he learned the truth, he threw Jory's body into the sea angrily, but..."
Huang Yanyan explained:
"I think Rhine, the mastermind behind the scenes, made a mistake, or he made a mistake on purpose.
is Jory's life experience. From a genetic point of view, he should be the governor's child. "
Seeing that Li Feng seemed confused, Huang Yanyan continued:
"I know that only a paternity test is accurate, but as far as I know, Jory, Mrs. Weiss, and the Governor are all blonde hair.
Moros, who could be mistaken for Jory's father, has dark brown hair.
Judging by a certain probability, if Jory is really Moros's child, then he will inherit Moros's darker hair.
Mrs. Weiss had a relationship with the Governor and Moros back then, probably at the same time.
But in this world, without a paternity test, it is impossible for Rhine to have definite evidence.
But under uncertain circumstances, he still chooses to kill people.
The dead cannot rest in peace, and the living cannot let go, and all parties involved are ashamed.
So, Rhine's heart... seems to be far less kind than rumored. "
Huang Yanyan sneered slightly as she spoke, and then she turned to Li Feng with concern:
"I have to contact him because of the order of the research institute, but you must be careful about this person, and it is best to stay away from him."
Looking at Huang Yanyan's extremely serious attitude, Li Feng already didn't know what to say.
About the issue of Jory’s hair color, Li Feng has also discovered it long ago, but to be honest, he doesn’t care about the truth.
When he and Xi Ya were planning this matter, they could ignore morality, but now facing Huang Yanyan, they really can't tell that I did it.
"Maybe Rhine just wants to eliminate harm for the people. You also said that Jory is a bastard."
Subconsciously, Li Feng defended himself.
"Impossible!"
Unexpectedly, Huang Yanyan denied it immediately, she laughed and said:
"From the perspective of the natives, Rhine would not think that Jory's behavior was excessive.
Nobles have privileges and can do anything wrong, that is their deep-rooted thinking, unless..."
Because Li Feng made an assumption, although Huang Yanyan thought it was impossible, she was still willing to follow Li Feng's thinking.
Then come up with a bold hypothesis:
"Unless Rhine is also a player! He has the same three views as us."
Li Feng:!
"But then again, players should be more cautious, and won't do such dangerous things for no reason."
Huang Yanyan continued to reason:
"Unless killing Jory is a system task, but...
According to the task given to X by the system, I think Jory is just a small character, and the system will not pay attention to him, let alone issue a task for him.
Could it be...
Just like X, the task Rhine received was also to deal with the governor?
But Rhine is very scheming, he knows that the governor is difficult to deal with, so he chooses to start with Jory? "
Huang Yanyan was also frightened by her own reasoning as she spoke, she looked at Li Feng to hear his opinion.
Li Feng's heart was about to collapse.
‘How can this girl be able to deduce the truth if I say anything casually...’
In order to avoid unnecessary complications, Li Feng replied casually and immediately ended the topic.
"By the way, you just said that the Institute ordered you to contact Rhine, why?"
Recalling the letter Huang Yanyan had written to himself, Li Feng asked about it.
Huang Yanyan was obviously helpless and irritable when she heard the words, she replied:
"Rhein is quite knowledgeable, and the research institute wants to use him to learn about things like ancient history."
After hearing this, Li Feng understood in his heart, thinking that it might be difficult for him to meet her as Rhine recently, so he simply asked:
"The research institute wants to know something, maybe I know it too."
