Slight footsteps rang out behind Sean.

Without looking back, Sean could tell a person by the sound of footsteps.

"Why did you wake up?" Sean turned and smiled at the visitor.

"Well, I can't sleep." Cecilia stared at where Monica had disappeared, "Something powerful. …… I didn't feel any traces of magic, and it didn't look like stealth. It seems to be more skillful than this...... Like, real invisibility disappears. ”

The Thief's unique skill, "Stealth", may seem invisible in the game, but in reality it is not. Stealth is a relatively advanced skill in the Thieves' Guild, but its essence is only to eliminate one's own presence by adjusting one's own breathing rhythm and movements.

Of course, there is a trick more sophisticated than this stealth - that is the exclusive skill of the Shadow Assassins.

However, at this time, the surrounding field of vision is very clear and vast, and there are no shadows, so this is naturally not the unique skill of the shadow assassin. Of course, more importantly, Cecilia is a genius with great attainments in the field of magic, and even she can't feel magic fluctuations, so this is 100% certain and not any sign of magic.

It's just that Sean is not impressed at all with such an ability.

"Yes." Unable to think of it, Sean didn't bother to pay attention to it, he turned his head, looked at the place where Monica had disappeared, and nodded, "If I'm not mistaken, the other party is in the whisper of a succubus." It should also be a character who belongs to the superior succubus. ”

"Superior succubus?"

"Succubus Whispering, except for the Succubus King and the twelve Phantoms who rule the entire organization, the entire power class can be divided into five levels. Among them, the high-level succubus is the second-level existence located in this pyramid structure, which can be regarded as an existence similar to an ace. Sean explained briefly to Cecilia. If she hadn't taken us too lightly at first, she could have caused us a lot of trouble. …… Of course, judging from her areas of expertise, I am afraid that she will not be the opponent of any of us in a head-to-head confrontation. ”

Sean still hasn't said a word.

That is, someone like Monica who serves as a superior succubus in Succubus Whisper is already the best servant a player can get from the Succubus Whisper organization. At the beginning of the game, although there were hundreds of high-level players who had a succubus whispering background as a minion, but among them, they were able to have the evaluation of "superior succubus" as a servant. There are only a dozen people, which shows how difficult it is to obtain.

But now, a superior succubus like Monica. was actually arranged to follow Anome, which only proves that Anom must have something that Succubus Whisper desperately needs.

Sean hadn't forgotten that Monica had completely avoided his question about what Arnom could offer.

Ten pieces of silver demonized equipment are rotten things in the game. It may become very valuable in this world. But this is still far from enough to invite the succubus to whisper - let alone please move, I'm afraid it's unlikely that even climbing a relationship is possible. At least all the quest lines that Sean knew about Succubus Whisper were taken in the Seven Great Empires, and it was almost impossible for other kingdoms to have anything to do with Succubus Whisper, not to mention that Dabion was only a second-rate kingdom before.

So what Sean said before was just a temptation.

And Monica's reaction was also expected by Sean, but he couldn't get any news out of Monica's mouth, which made him a little regretful. But in general. Sean still knew a very important piece of information: that is, what Arnom could pay for, its value was not under the medium-efficiency gold-grade demonic equipment that Sean gave.

An alchemist. He can't make gold-grade demonization equipment himself, but he can give a reward that is not low for gold-grade demonization equipment, isn't the answer very obvious?

There can be no answer other than priceless material.

It's just that Sean doesn't have any eyebrows at all about what kind of material it is.

After all, Sean was not involved in the game about this part of the story, and he knew that the organization of Succubus Whispers was only started when Utopia was burned down later, and then the entire guild was transferred to the Chainas Empire to redevelop. So at this moment, Sean naturally couldn't know what kind of deal Succubus Whisper and Anom had made, of course, if he hadn't seen Monica in person today, Sean wouldn't have known that Succubus Whisper had actually started to be active on the Miracle Continent so soon.

The only thing he can do at this time is to start speculating little by little based on the existing clues, just like ordinary players. Of course, as far as the current situation is concerned, I don't know anything other than being able to know that it is probably a priceless material.

In fact, Sean does have some ideas about such a material.

As a gamer, how could you not be interested in these things? But judging from the current situation, it is obviously not easy to start, and if too much time is wasted for such a material, it will be a bit worthless in Sean's opinion, because he has more important things to deal with at the moment. At least compared to that material, the physical condition of Rena, Shephaneo and others is the most important thing in Sean's eyes.

In addition, the caravan from the Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce Alliance should also be on its way to the Void Realm at this time, and Sean expects that the other party will arrive at the Void Realm with his front and back feet. It will definitely be a bunch of troubles at that time, just how to deal with those demon descendants, Sean doesn't have any good ideas now; In addition, there are many questions about the re-establishment of the territory, the reorganization of the legions, and the establishment of the magic circle on the part of the Haytham scholars.

Thinking about it, Sean felt that the pressure on his shoulders was too great.

"What do we do next?" Cecilia looked at Sean, who was obviously a little preoccupied, stepped forward softly to hold Sean's hand, and then asked.

"Continue to follow Hela's plan." Sean, who came back to his senses, turned around and smiled at Cecilia. Then he reached out and patted Cecilia on the head, "Since someone has come to trouble us tonight, then this proves that they will not put their energy into the Acorn Meadow. At most, it's a little harassment and a bit of slowing us down. …… But starting tomorrow, when we rest in the future, we probably really have to find some safer places. ”

Cecilia smiled slightly, but didn't say anything more.

Sean rubbed Cecilia's hair for a long time, this action made the latter stunned for a moment, but the former showed a sincere smile that he hadn't seen for a long time: "Don't worry, I will resist when the sky falls." ”

"I'm not worried." Cecilia pursed her lips. "I'll be able to recover in about two or three days."

"I know." Sean nodded, "Let's go get some sleep again." ”

"What about you?"

"I'm going to sleep too." Sean laughed. Then he casually threw away the string of tough silk wrapped around his hand, "Anyway, no one will come to trouble tonight." ”

……

And the development of things is indeed as Sean judged.

Monica reappeared about a few hundred meters away from the place where Sean and the others had been repaired. It's just that the figure has just appeared. She couldn't help but snort, and a bloodshot overflowed from the corner of her mouth, obviously injured.

"You're hurt?" Seeing Monica's appearance, a strong man who had been waiting next to him let out a sigh of surprise, "Is the other party so powerful?" ”

"That lord is not simple." Monica said in a deep voice, "This is just a minor injury, it is caused by the use of secret techniques many times in a short period of time, and it is not in the way. ”

"That lord is powerful?" The strong man next to him asked in a deep voice.

This strong man. is the true follower of Arnome.

He has been following Arnaim for several years, and in terms of combat power alone, he is indeed the number one under Arnome. Even if you put it in the martial arts festival to fight, it is no problem to enter the ranks of the top 32, and if you are lucky enough, it is not difficult to enter the ranks of the top 16. After all, the giant hammer in his hand, which was enough to scare countless people just by looking at its appearance, was tailor-made for him by Arnome, and it came with three very practical special abilities, so he has always had a great advantage in the face of opponents in the same strength realm.

"I heard that he is a master of swordsmanship, known for his fast sword, and is not an opponent you can deal with head-on." Monica glanced at the strong man and whispered.

Hearing this, the strong man touched his head with some shame.

In terms of his size, at first glance, he knew that he was a strong man who took the fierce route, and he was holding such a terrifying heavy weapon, no matter how you looked at it, it was obvious that he was very helpless against those who took the agile route. If Sean is just a master of swordsmanship, this strong man still has the confidence to fight with Sean to take a look, after all, before the battle, no one can say that he will win, but after hearing that Sean is a master of swordsmanship known for his fast sword, this strong man has no idea of fighting alone.

"Then how do we reply to those nobles?" The strong man whispered, "If you let him know that you lost tonight, then he will probably be furious." ”

"Our relationship with the other party is just a collaborator, not a subordinate relationship, so we don't need to follow his orders and arrangements." Monica snorted coldly, "Besides, I've already said it, I'm just going to spy on the information tonight, of course, the purpose of harassment is enough, and now the other party must be suspicious and don't dare to sleep easily, which has achieved the purpose we said at the beginning." ”

"Yes." The strong man nodded.

Monica glanced at her companion, who was obviously a little anxious, but she snorted with disdain in her heart.

She didn't believe that Sean would be suspicious at night and afraid to sleep, in her opinion, the lord must have fallen asleep now, and she felt that if she killed a horse pistol at this time, she would definitely reap extremely considerable results. It's just that the strong sense of crisis in her heart has made her suppress this temptation, for so long, it is with this keen sense of smell that she has been able to stand out from the whispers of the succubus, so when this sense of death crisis rises, she will become extremely cautious and cautious, no matter how great the temptation, she will choose to give up.

After all, you have to live to have a chance.

And in the same way, when talking to Sean tonight, she gave up several opportunities to kill Sean when she could have killed her. Because in that place, the sense of crisis she felt was even stronger and more vivid than now, which was the real reason why she finally chose to back down when facing Sean.

Anyway, for Monica, there is still a long way to go, as long as she is careful and cautious enough and prepares more, there will definitely be a chance. And she also has a secret agreement with Sean now, which can be said to be safe for the time being, of course, no matter how safe it is, but the assassination industry is still accompanied by a certain degree of danger, sometimes even if the other party wants to show mercy, but the reflexive counterattack will also be fatal.

Monica, she didn't want to take that risk. (To be continued......)

PS: My girlfriend told me to reconcile, well, I'm very happy!
