Chapter 740 Exchange of information!
His brain started to work frantically.
"Is there white smoke on the surface of that monster's body?"
"According to the original storyline, Mr. Durant and his companions probably unearthed an ancient relic before the problem arose."
Thinking of this, Chu Yang couldn't help but say, "They should have dug out that piece of remains or ruins, right?"
"If I'm not mistaken, that monster made of white smoke should have rushed out from the ruins and chased them to the outside world."
Hearing Chu Yang's guess, Miss Xiu's eyes lit up.
"You're right."
"I finally managed to escape their pursuit. Of course, I also used some special methods. I also used some tricks that the dragon left on me."
At the end, Miss Xiu seemed very hesitant.
In fact, if she had not been in imminent danger, she would never have easily used the things left by the dragon.
After following Chu Yang for so long, she already knew that there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
Because of this, since you enjoy the convenience of the other party, you must bear the consequences that may arise at any time.
So there is no need to hide this matter from Chu Yang.
"What do you mean by backhand?"
The expression on Chu Yang's face immediately became extremely serious.
He always felt that this matter was more bizarre and tricky than those so-called white smoke monsters.
"Actually, I don't know too much."
A bitter smile appeared on Miss Xiu's face, and then she shook her head slightly.
"I took Mr. Durant's family and escaped the disaster, but we were trapped in a small village."
"Many times I thought the white smoke monster was going to devour all of us, but he seemed very scared and didn't want to get close to my body."
"He trapped me like that and didn't want me to escape the area."
"In the critical moment, I could only take the hastily prepared potion and quickly advance to the next sequence."
"Then I found the monster's weakness."
Miss Xiu only said this when Chu Yang couldn't help but shook his head, "I guess you didn't succeed in exploiting that weakness at all."
That white smoke monster ran out from the ruins.
In a sense, the ruins are completely the relics of an era.
It was impossible for a newly promoted Miss Xiu to find the monster's true weakness.
"Later, I was rescued by a mysterious lady when I was at my wit's end."
When Miss Xiu said this, a look of gratitude appeared on her face.
"Mysterious lady? Do you know his identity?"
Chu Yang couldn't help but frown and asked.
He didn't believe that there were such coincidences in the world.
"I don't know her true identity, but the lady's attire is very strange."
"Her outfit is, to some extent, the same style as that on the ancient coin you found."
"The lady looked very beautiful, with long hair, but the dress she was wearing was two completely different colours."
"The pattern on the left looks very simple and beautiful, while the pattern on the right is a different color and has an extremely diverse pattern."
"The combination of these two conflicting decorative elements creates a very contradictory feeling."
"You know what? Every shoe that lady wears is different."
The expression on Miss Xiu's face became particularly strange.
She didn't even know what to make of the woman she had met earlier.
"Such a strange style of clothing? It seems to be the style of other empires."
A thoughtful look appeared on Chu Yang's face.
Just as he guessed, the lady who suddenly appeared to rescue Miss Xiu might have also run out from the ruins.
"One more thing. The lady's method of subduing monsters is also very unique. She took out a bottle and all the white smoke was absorbed into the bottle."
"Then she waved her palm in front of my face, and a very faint light was drawn out of my head."
"After that ball of light left me, I felt a lot lighter. I had a feeling that the light must have been left to me by the dragon."
Miss Hugh has no regrets at all.
Because she never thought that what she got from the dragon was good.
"If I'm not mistaken, the dragon gave that thing to you so that it could be passed on to that lady through you."
Chu Yang was completely relieved.
Many big figures in this world like to beat around the bush when doing things.
Or they like to choose a spokesperson and then transfer things or achieve their goals through the spokesperson's whereabouts.
"As you might guess, that's how the lady explained it to me."
"She even gave me a reward for delivering something. It was the potion formula that would allow me to advance to the next level. Of course, she didn't give me the ingredients."
Miss Xiu immediately took out a piece of sheepskin that looked quite ancient.
Sheepskin also comes in two distinct styles and colors.
There were two rather strange-looking words written on it.
When he saw this, the corners of Chu Yang's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Because the text above is also divided into two types, which is exactly the style of that special imperial period.
Everything is rendered in two distinct styles, using clashing colors.
"It seems my guess was correct. That woman is indeed from that special ancient empire."
"Except for that special period, I'm afraid no one would record anything on a parchment scroll using two completely different and conflicting scripts."
Chu Yang even felt that the people in that empire might have problems with their brains.
Otherwise, how could such a unique style be formed?
"By the way, Hugh, when you were with Mr. Durant, did you ask them what they had dug up or seen in the ruins?"
Chu Yang immediately asked.
Although the original story also records the period of the ruins.
But many things are naturally not clearer than what the person involved has experienced personally.
"I've asked about this before, but Mr. Durant doesn't know much. He just heard some strange words and phrases."
"According to his account, he immediately forgot many words after leaving the ruins."
“But some ancient words are still firmly imprinted in my mind.”
Then Miss Xiu handed those ancient words that she had specially memorized to Chu Yang.
Chu Yang only needed to take a look to connect it with some of the content in the original story.
His inner guesses about certain things also became clearer.
"Perhaps fate really exists at all times."
"When I chose the White Tower as my code name within the Tarot Club, my fate was destined to be entangled with the Witch Sequence and the Arbiter Sequence."
"And of course that special sequence with the Hunter."
This thought suddenly popped up in Chu Yang's mind.
Of course, this kind of thing is not a bad thing for him.
After all, this means that some people or things in the original plot will come to you on their own initiative.
This can also make his later development smoother.
"By the way, Chu Yang, after going through all this, the entanglement between me and the dragon should be over."
"I really don't want to be associated with a big shot like that."
Miss Xiu asked rather nervously.
She just wanted to find out what had happened to her father.
She didn't want to have anything to do with the real big shots.
Otherwise, as time goes by, she might be completely killed in a corner at some unknown time.
"I think it's completely over."
Chu Yang's inner thoughts were actually a little unpredictable.
After all, those guys at the god level never have any principles when doing things.
Of course, this is to prevent any problems from happening to his good friend Miss Xiu.
He decided that next time he went to the Tarot Club, he would try his best to introduce Xio to Mr. Klein the Fool.
With Klein's intervention, Miss Xiu's fate will become confusing.
At least those guys on the gods' side won't be able to influence Miss Xiu easily.
Then the two of them exchanged views on the recent situation.
Chu Yang also told everything that happened to him without reservation.
Of course, we cannot elaborate too much on matters involving gods.
Therefore, Miss Xiu also understood that the Church of Mother Earth would also send experts here.
Moreover, those masters can even be compared with the top masters of the military.
"It would be great if someone could clean up the mess."
Miss Xiu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
She felt extremely nervous whenever she thought about facing those unknown enemies with Chu Yang.
After all, those two witches dared to confront the people from the Military Affairs Office head-on, and they were not caught at all.
"You're overthinking it. This matter is no easier to resolve than the white smoke you encountered."
Chu Yang also shook his head slightly.
The two of them briefly exchanged relevant information and soon parted ways.
For the next two days, Chu Yang stayed quietly in the studio.
He also helps Manhattan with some detective work in his spare time.
Just as he was about to go out for a walk, he was suddenly stopped by Manhattan.
Chu Yang looked at his teacher in surprise.
During this period, Manhattan received several commissions, which involved people from different levels.
Manhattan was so busy that he couldn't even go home easily.
Today I suddenly had something to ask him.
"Have you forgotten that a new party is about to start?"
"Would you like to come tonight?"
Manhattan naturally knew that this kind of gathering was beneficial for extraordinary people.
Naturally, he would not forget his students for such a good thing.
"Teacher, do you think I can find the Emerald Mother Tree Heart at the party tonight?"
Chu Yang asked expectantly.
"If you're just here for this kind of thing, there's really no need to attend overseas gatherings."
"It's not because this thing is so unique, but because I have been looking for this thing for the past few years, but even I haven't found it yet."
Manhattan said helplessly.
Related materials for promotion to the next sequence.
If that really happened, he would never give in easily, even if the competitor was his own student.
Chu Yang couldn't help but shook his head bitterly.
The main material for advancement to the next sequence was the Emerald Mother Tree Heart, something he had already informed his teacher of before leaving Backlund.
He originally thought that with his extensive network of contacts in Manhattan, he would be able to collect the materials quickly.
If all goes well, you can even sell him the excess materials.
Who would have thought that after so much time had passed, his teacher still had no results.
"It seems that the preciousness of this thing is far beyond my expectations."
"I really miss that vampire elder. Their treasure house should have something like this."
Chu Yang couldn't help but think about it.
But he doesn't need to worry now.
After all, it will take him some time to digest the appearance of his internal body.
What he needs to do most is to stick to his job as a detective and make good use of his acting skills.
"Teacher, I'd better go to the party tonight. It's a good opportunity to get some funds back."
Chu Yang finally decided to go there.
Of course, before that he needs to prepare some special talismans.
This way you can earn more gold pounds, and if you come across something good, you can put it in your pocket.
What's more, it's always good to follow your teacher to see the world.
Just as Chu Yang was about to leave, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the living room door.
Then a servant in livery came in to announce the arrival of a visitor.
The visitor was a gentleman who looked to be in his late forties.
The man was dressed like a gentleman and even held a walking stick in his hand.
So Chu Yang had no choice but to stay beside his teacher and prepare to receive the guests.
After all, he has already been officially announced as Manhattan's disciple.
Before such a formal visitor arrived, he also needed to receive him as a courtesy.
He even went to another room to tidy up his clothes.
When we arrived at the living room, the visitor was already sitting on the sofa.
The gentleman had light blond hair and was wearing a formal uniform.
His face was slightly yellowish, and it was obvious that he was not in very good health.
It's just that his temperament is quite good, even a bit tough.
Chu Yang exchanged a few words with the visitor out of courtesy.
"Mr. Frank, may I ask if you have any task for my teacher that you have come to visit me this time?"
Chu Yang finally chose to get straight to the point.
Mr. Frank smiled very politely, "I know Mr. Manhattan is busy with a series of commissioned cases recently, so time is very tight."
"So I came to see you this time. I know you have been recognized by Mr. Manhattan and can take on tasks independently."
Hearing these words that were clearly praiseworthy, Chu Yang felt a chill in his heart.
