Lord of the Mysteries
Chapter 178
“Call the police?” Fors Wall repeated in surprise.
To Beyonders, lodging a police report seemed to be something of another world.
Xio paced back and forth as she tugged her coarse blonde hair.
“The scene of Darkholme’s death is harrowing and creepy. As long as the police aren’t blind, they would definitely pass the case on to the Mandated Punishers, the Nighthawks, the Machinery Hivemind, or the special department of the military. When that happens, we can leak some more information and let them know that the murderer is Qilangos. At that point, the entire city will be chasing after him.
“Our goal is only to look for Qilangos, not to capture him. With the ‘help’ of so many Beyonders, things would become much simpler and safer. Once Qilangos panics and makes a mistake, it would be our chance to claim our bounty. Heh heh, I’m referring to the discovery of his whereabouts.”
Xio laughed dryly and looked at the appalled Fors.
“Do you think that the only way I know to deal with problems is by charging into them headfirst? The difference between us and Qilangos is as vast as the Desi Bay.”
Fors nodded slowly and said, “Your understanding of yourself is absolutely right. You’ve done too many things of a similar nature. Hence, the losses that you’ve suffered is sufficient for you to advance to Sequence 8.
“Luckily, you’re still rational enough regarding this matter.”
Xio lowered her head to look at her bayonet. She thought for a moment and said, “… I have to be honest. I clearly sensed the approach of Death earlier. Qilangos was no doubt nearby. That was an aura evil enough to destroy us at any time. That triggered an instinctual response in me.”
Fors wore her silver bracelet that had two stones left and thought seriously.
“I agree with your idea. Let’s inform Miss Audrey first and lodge the police report after.”
“Yes, regardless if it was Darkholme or his underlings who found Qilangos’s traces, we could continue to investigate with that approach and find out Qilangos activity range and the location of his residence.”
Xio creased her slim blonde eyebrows and said, “But Qilangos would definitely not remain in the same place.”
Even as one of the Seven Pirate Admirals, even if he had the assistance of a mystical artifact, Qilangos had to be extremely careful in Backlund.
Even Nast, the King of the Five Seas, had once encountered disaster here and was nearly caught.
“No, what I meant was, to surmise or confirm the purpose of Qilangos’s visit to Backlund based on the clues. Once we know what he’s trying to do, no matter how he disguises himself or what tricks he pulls, he’ll be exposed to us in the end. Then, our mission would be accomplished,” Fors explained in detail. “Two years of novel-writing experience tells me that things would become simple once we grasp the crux of the matter.”
Xio looked at her best friend in shock. She couldn’t believe the woman had just made such a logical statement.
