Chapter 142 Correcting the world line overnight!
West District, Green Park.
The winding path passes through the dense woods. The lush vegetation makes the air quality here very good. At night, with the evening breeze, it is quiet and cool.
It is a good place for many elderly people to come for a walk. Some young couples occasionally like to come here for a stroll, and then go into the woods to experience a different kind of excitement.
Qi Lingges leaned on a cane taken from an old man who was already lying in the pond, imitating the walking habits of the elderly, and slowly walked on the path.
The sharp and flamboyant eyes converged, replaced by the muddled state of the elderly.
Only occasionally glancing around, you can still peek into the sharp eyes.
He was seriously injured tonight, but fortunately there was no obvious wound and bloody smell, which made him not so quickly discovered by the extraordinary people of the Storm Church after changing his appearance.
As for who exposed his plan to assassinate Duke Negan tonight, he already had a suspicious candidate in his mind.
There is only one person who has a conflict of interest with him and is familiar with his movements, Alger!
But he couldn't figure it out. Even if Alger knew that he had secretly infiltrated Backlund, he didn't know what he really wanted to do.
He wanted to assassinate Duke Negan. Apart from the organization that promised to give him the Blasphemous Card, only he knew it.
Alger couldn't know his real plan.
Then who was capable of seeing through his disguise at the ball tonight?
Qi Lingos recalled the people he had dealt with at the ball tonight one by one.
Among them, there were six people who had talked, four of whom were male nobles, one was a noble lady, and the other was the most impressive daughter of Earl Hall, Miss Audrey.
Could it be her?
Otherwise, why did she come to talk to him at that time?
Was it because she was suspicious, so she used the conversation to determine whether he was the disguised Baron Gramiel?
Well, her eyes were well hidden, and she seemed to be very good at observation... She was a spectator!
Qi Lingos suddenly figured out the key to all this. Miss Audrey was a spectator extraordinary!
She was very familiar with Baron Gramire's conversation reactions and living habits, so she could see through her disguise at the first time and then go to tell her father, Earl Hall!
Haha, I didn't expect that this pearl of Backlund would see through her disguise.
I heard that Miss Audrey is likely to marry into the royal family?
Qi Lingos' eyes were cold and sharp. He had already thought about how to retaliate against Miss Audrey after escaping from here!
He raised his eyes and was about to walk out of the park and come to Green Street. The flow of people here was several times more than that of the park. As long as he changed his appearance and lived in seclusion in the following time, the brainless people of the Storm Church would never find him.
"Qilingos!"
A sudden shout made Qilingos tense up suddenly, but he still tried to restrain the urge to turn back subconsciously, pretending that he didn't hear this sentence, keeping alert, and continued to walk towards the crowd in front.
"Is the creeping hunger on your left hand useful? Whose life will it devour next time?"
The voice came again, directly revealing Qi Lingos's greatest reliance at the moment.
He instantly understood that his new identity had been completely recognized, and there was no luck anymore.
Damn it!
How could those brainless guys from the Storm Church come so quickly!
Qilingos was furious, but he reacted quickly. A strong wind surged around him, blocking his vision, and then he rushed to the crowd in front!
At this time, on the road ahead of him, a spirit wearing dark red armor suddenly appeared in the air, and a two-handed sword slashed down with the light of dawn!
The dazzling light swallowed Qi Lingos' figure in an instant.
The members of the Punisher who heard the noise behind him and rushed over witnessed Qi Lingos' body being cut in half by a sword.
When the light dissipated, the mysterious spirit disappeared into the void. Even if an extraordinary person opened his spiritual vision, he could not see the trace of the mysterious spirit.
At this moment, he completely disappeared.
Alger also witnessed this scene. While he was relieved, he was also shocked by the death of Qilingos.
There was no fancy tricks. Just a simple sword from top to bottom, Qilingos, a Sequence 6 Wind Favored One, was cut in half!
And he could disappear in front of so many Punishers for no reason.
How mysterious it is!
Could this be Mr. Fool's Favored One?
A guess suddenly came to Alger's mind.
When he sought help from Mr. Fool before, Mr. Fool did not refuse, but just said: "If he has time."
Now it seems that Mr. Fool's Favored One did not take action before because he did not have time, and now he finally made time and solved Qilingos.
At this time, strong winds blew, sweeping a large area nearby, as if exploring something, but still without any gains.
The spirit in dark red armor did not appear because of this.
Even a demigod couldn't detect his presence, it was indeed very mysterious.
Alger felt even more awed.
…
"Huh, he's finally back."
Hasta returned to the bedroom to let the spirit merge into his body. After enduring the burning sensation for a while, he was truly relieved.
Flying long distances in spirit form, then activating the power of the war emblem, and cutting Qilingos in half with a full-strength sword, and finally hiding his spirit traces, avoiding the detection of the singer of God, and flying back to the bedroom, it was indeed quite hard.
Hasta lay on the bed, recovering his spiritual power while reviewing tonight's actions in his mind.
The reason why he was able to deal with Qilingos tonight was, on the one hand, because of his fate spying on the Hall of Stars, he was able to lock on to Qilingos's location, and then with a simple test, he could see through his disguised new face.
On the other hand, his spirit invisibility was really powerful, which prevented Qilingos from noticing his existence in the first place, and thus collided head-on with his sword.
After dealing with Qilingos, he could continue to hide, which was indeed a necessary skill for murder and arson.
Fortunately, when the singer of God arrived at the scene, he was already a long distance away, and his large-scale exploration did not affect him, otherwise the result would be hard to say.
After a long rest, Hastur recovered from the negative effects of the war emblem.
"Kill Qilingos, correct the changed world line, the accident has been resolved, but how to deal with this creeping hunger?"
At the moment of dealing with Qilingos, Hastur took the creeping hunger with the blade of his sword.
Instead of leaving it to the people of the Storm Church for nothing, he might as well take it for himself.
Although this extraordinary item is not very useful to him now,
After all, it will devour a person's soul after using it once, and this side effect is too great, so he doesn't need to change his appearance.
As for giving it to Klein to restore the normal world line...This place is so far away from Tingen, and he has no suitable reason to give it away.
It's better to take it first and consider it when Klein comes to Backlund in the future.
Anyway, he can't use this creeping hunger in a short time, otherwise it will attract the attention of the Storm Church.
Hasta got up from the bed, found a suitable box, and locked the creeping hunger in it.
Then he went to the bathroom to take a bath, and then returned to the bedroom to have a good sleep.
…
The next day, the news that Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos, one of the seven pirate generals, died in Backlund quickly spread.
The newspapers recorded that it was the people of the Storm Church who killed the Hurricane Vice Admiral.
When Grellint heard the news, he was just slightly stunned, and then laughed: "Hasta told me to be careful last night, but I didn't expect that Hurricane Vice Admiral didn't even make it through the night."
The news Audrey got came from Earl Hall, and she knew that the person who killed Qilingos was not the Storm Church, but an unknown mysterious existence.
Mysterious, powerful.
Could it be the work of Mr. Fool's followers?
It is very likely, after all, Mr. Fool did not refuse to give Mr. Hanged Man some help at that time.
She was really curious, but it was only Sunday, and there was still one day before the Tarot Club next Monday.
Now, there was no need to worry about implicating Grellint.
Audrey also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She felt guilty about putting the blame on Grellint.
As the protagonist of the story, Hasta was told the news by Greg.
He could only pretend to be very shocked and happy to deal with Greg.
Finally, Greg gave Hastur a promise: the Negan family would fully help him in his future promotion to the title of nobility.
