Chapter 141: Joanna is looking for me!

Chapter 141: Joanna is looking for me!

Upon hearing this, Wright and Lilith’s attention instantly focused.

They had arrived in Harbor City half a month ago, and before that, six innocent little girls had been killed.

When Wright and the others arrived, because they hadn’t been able to get a clear picture of the situation in the early stages, three more little girls were tragically killed before and after.

Wright realized that if this continued, there would definitely be more victims when he was ready.

But he had no choice but to let Emily investigate because he had to prepare for the Blood and Flesh Theocracy with the Dependable Grocery Store.

As for Lilith, Wright didn’t dare to let her get too far away from him for the time being.

If anything, when he was in the Holy Capital, Wright needed to ensure that Emily, who was a witch, wouldn’t be sneak attacked by the Truth Church.

Then now, he needed to make sure that Lilith, likewise, would not be attacked by the Lie Demon.

Luckily, Emily had done a good job and managed to stop the murderous demon’s blood sacrifice operation and save the victim.

“Emily-sama, thank you indeed!”

The little girl was very excited after seeing Emily, and she took out the basket behind her.

“This is …… a little thank you gift!”

“Aiya, you don’t have to be so polite!”

Emily reached out and took the basket to take a look at it, which contained some exquisitely crafted pastries.

“This …… this is what I made myself. I hope Lord Emily will like it!”

“Wow, you’re so crafty.”

Emily was thrilled herself as she received a thank you gift for the first time, “It smells great, thank you!”

Wright rushed forward, “This lady, what’s your name?”

“Hello …… you!”

The little girl seemed to have inquired about the identity of Wright and the others, and appeared to be very nervous in the face of this powerful, rich and well-connected aristocrat.

“I I I, my name is Emma Nap.”

“Oh, hello Emma, my name is Wright, this is Lilith.”

“Me! I know you, Sir Wright, Miss Lilith.”

The little girl gave Wright the old nobleman’s salute, which surprised Wright.

“Emma, you’re a nobleman?”

“No, I’m not …… but my aunt is married to a nobleman and she taught me all this.”

“Oh? So you live uptown then?”

“Yes, I live at my aunt’s house and help them with some chores during the week.”

Emily hurriedly blocked in front of the little girl, “Master Wright, don’t act like you’re interrogating a prisoner, people are here to find me!”

“Since it’s your friend, of course we have to offer hospitality. Miss Emma, come to the inner hall for a cup of tea?”

Wright had recently been preparing for the two stores, and seeing the victims of the Misty Murderer for the first time, still alive, he naturally wanted to learn more about them.

The little girl glanced at Emily and quickly nodded, “Good …… good ah.”

Wright warmly welcomed the little girl to the inner hall, poured tea, and while savoring the snacks she brought, he complimented her on her craftsmanship while starting to inquire about her without a trace.

Emma’s little girl didn’t have any defenses at all, plus Wright’s profound power.

A few people didn’t have to chat for a few sentences before they had pretty much pulled out her basic information.

Finding an opening, Wright and Lilith left the inner hall, leaving Emily and Emma to continue chatting.

In the middle of the backyard, Wright glanced back at the inner sanctum with a frown on his face.

Lilith reached out and rubbed his brow, “What’s wrong?”

“Can’t get it right.”

“What doesn’t match?”

“This girl’s information doesn’t match the nine girls who were killed earlier.”

Although Wright hadn’t gone to personally deal with the Misty Murder Ghost incident, he had easily obtained the entire dossier and records from the Guard Bureau through his noble status.

According to the records, those nine poor girls were all the first children of their families.

That is, the [first born child].

This was very much in line with the conditions of the blood sacrifice, because in a sense, the first-born child was a gift from heaven, and it was very significant.

Some primitive tribes, to this day, retain the vice of sacrificing their first-born children to the evil gods.

In their view, dedicating one’s first-born child to the gods is the most pious manifestation.

But this Emma, not to mention her first-born child, had two sisters and an older brother, as well as a younger brother.

Secondly, all the victims were from the lower city, which was a big headache for the Guard.

Because folklore had begun to spread that the Misty Murderer Ghost was actually a psychopathic nobleman, which at one point made the relationship between the Lower City and the Upper City very tense.

And this Emma, although not a noble, had been living in her aunt’s house in Uptown.

This time, she had only come to the lower city in order to buy fresh seafood at the fishing harbor, and as a result, she went back too late and encountered the mists, which was why she was almost hunted by the murderous ghost.

And, age-wise, she was the youngest of all the victims, obviously a whole lot younger.

The other girls were all at least sixteen or seventeen in flower, and this Emma was just thirteen or fourteen, still an authentic little girl.

Wright mused, “Either that, or our previous analytical reasoning was wrong. This murderous ghost’s murderous logic has another common denominator, but we haven’t discovered it yet.

Either that, there is an insider in the police station, cooperating with the murderous ghost, modifying and contaminating the information in the dossier, in order to delay the speed of the guards in solving the case.

Either that, or this Emma, there’s something wrong.”

Lilith looked at the two people who were talking to each other in the middle of the inner hall with a frown on her face.

“Can’t sense anything wrong with this little girl.”

“The means of the Lying Demon should not be underestimated.”

“That’s not necessarily true, he’s an incomplete body and I’m also an incomplete body. Even if his means are superior, it’s impossible for me to not notice a single trace.”

Lilith sighed, “You’d better hurry up and unseal part of my body out. Seriously, I can kind of relate to Emily’s feelings when she was in the Holy Capital.

It’s not a good feeling to be a procrastinator.”

“Tonight, at least liberate you to fifty percent of your state. Let’s hope that Dream Witch, she really does have a couple of tricks up her sleeve.”

“Yeah!”

“But!”

Wright held up a finger, “You still have to look like this when you’re out and about. After all, everyone’s seen what you look like.”

“No problem, it’s not like I recovered for them to see. Hehehe~”

While the two were chatting, Emily and Emma had already walked into the courtyard.

“Lord Wright, Miss Lilith, thank you for your hospitality, I won’t bother you much today.”

“Ohhh, you’re going back? Then Emily, you can see them off.”

“Okay okay.”

“No! No, it’s daytime, the fog has lifted, it’s okay.”

Wright looked up, “Well …… okay. Miss Emma, one of these days you remember to never show up on the streets after the fog has lifted again.

That murderer is very cunning and persistent, so you must keep yourself safe.”

“Uh-huh, thank you Lord Wright for your concern, I will.”

Emma was very polite and waved goodbye towards the three Wrights as she left. Emily was thrilled and waited for Emma to leave, still pinching and tilting her head.

“Geez, it feels so good to be thanked.”

“After all, you saved someone’s life, so I won’t beat you up today. Well done, Emily.”

“It’s just, it’s a shame about those girls before. Damn murderous ghost, when I meet him next time, I must ……”

Emily said here, suddenly turned around and ran into the warehouse, taking out the crowbar, “Make sure to use this, and swing him hard!

Lethe Wright, I realized, this thing does suit me well!”

“So, do you want to try joining my sinewy god religion?”

“Well …… that’s better.”

Emily thought about all the dockworkers she’d seen, all sinewy bulging tigers who felt like they could kill a cow with one punch.

Especially when they gathered together, it was like a mass of burning coals, emitting a terrifying pressure.

Obviously they were all ordinary people, but they were extremely oppressive.

But it wouldn’t be good for a girl like herself to get into that.

Seemingly seeing through Emily’s thoughts, Wright laughed, ”A girl who works out will have a more stunning body, it won’t be the same as a man’s body type.

Forget it, you’ll know later.

Holy Weapon Embryo, put it away yourself.

Also, I’ve prepared other gadgets that can increase your combat power.

Inside that wooden box that I just warped up, go get them yourself.”

Emily was instantly delighted to hear that there were even gifts. She turned around and ran inside, skillfully prying open the wooden box with the crowbar in her hand.

Looking at her uneducated behavior, Lilith couldn’t help but sigh.

“How can I say it, it does fit her quite well.”

“Wow! What’s this?”

Emily ran out with a strange device, “How does this work?”

“You, on the other hand, have become very skillful at entering the overclocked state. But then, there is no way for you to summon an Elemental Lord in the middle of the real world.

So, you can only practice overclocking with overdrive in the dream world.

As for Ultra Fusion, that’s even more impossible.

In order to allow you to accomplish supersomatization and even super quantization within reality, I made this device for you.”

With that said, Wright reached out and took the device, clasping it around Emily’s waist. Then from his arms, he fished out a bunch of magic crystal cards.

“In here, is the power of the Elemental Lord that I sealed. It’s not as strong as a whole one, but it’s enough for you to use.

As long as you insert the card into this device at your waist, you will be able to access the elemental power in it and try to complete your Transcendent Form.

But you must remember!

Unless you have reached the Holy Rank, you cannot perform a full Transcendental Formation.

Only when you have advanced to become a Legendary powerhouse can you use the Hyperbody state.

If you are fortunate enough to forge your own holy weapon and comprehend the power of the Trinity, advance to become a Cthulhu powerhouse.

At that time, you can only attempt to make an attempt at the Hyperfusion Form in the middle of a new world.

Of course, at the moment, this device can’t reach the ability of super fusion, so I’ll help you upgrade it when the time comes.

Moreover, this device also has a certain protective function.

In the event that you fail, it will save your little life from storming along with the elements.”

Emily looked at the device at her waist with great excitement, then surveyed the card in her hand.

“Wow! Fire element, wind element …… even light element! But …… why, do these cards look, so familiar?”

“Of course they look familiar, this is the Purple Gold Magic Crystal Card.”

“Purple Gold Magic Crystal Card! Among the rumors, it was issued by the Tower of Truth back then! A Purple Gold Magic Crystal Card that represents one hundred thousand magic crystal coins, that is, ten million gold marcs?”

“Yes, a card you can use ten times, once is also one hundred thousand magic crystals, one million gold marcs.”

“Ah ah ah ah! Then I won’t use it even if I die!”

Emily was going crazy as she grabbed the card, “Why are you so rich!”

“Have you ever heard the saying that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse?”

“I’ve heard it, but what does it have to do with you?”

Wright smiled sorrowfully, “Your master teacher who has turned into a Mobiusu aura is just a residue generated by resentment after death though, not much useful stuff in his mind.

However, he knows where the Truth Remnant’s activity funds are.

Why is it that the Tower of Truth has fallen for so many years, and the remnants still have so much destructive power?

Because back then, the Tower of Truth’s treasures were hidden, and there were several more.

The Sage of Reason has relied on one of these treasures to bring back a group of people over the years.

That Nuisance Flesh and Blood is actually the treasure trove’s gatekeeper.”

Lilith was stunned, “It’s that lake? That palace under the lake?”

“Right! The treasure is there!”

“I didn’t even realize!”

“The space singularity.”

Lilith froze, then stomped her foot in chagrin, “Damn it, I should have swept through with space magic if I had known!”

“I also explored Stewart’s memories to find it.”

Wright tapped Emily on the head, “Sort of, your reward for protecting the victim this time, use it well.

After all, there’s no point in not using it when you should.”

Emily nodded heavily at that, “I, understand.”

It was at this moment that a vibrating beep suddenly came from Wright’s waist.

“Ah, Joanna, looking for me.”
