Chapter 688 Fooling everyone
Chapter 688 Fooling everyone
From MC's perspective:
Abbey street,
The ugly-faced wizard started leading me toward their basement. The other wizards wearing ragged clothes followed me from behind.
If I had shown some resistance, they would have done something to restrict my magic powers. But looks like they are careful enough to not cause commotion.
The confrontation might have attracted unwanted attention.
Meanwhile,
The triple killer expression was not right. He had thought another clash would take place. Which would then compel Vincent to take out his trump card.
Even in the worst case, the red axis might send another group to capture Vincent. But nothing sort of happened.
Rather the target was calm and composed. Especially after hearing the enemy was a level-6 wizard. In normal cases, people would have tried to escape.
But on the other hand, Vincent Carey is deliberately walking to the lion's den. The triple killer feels something extremely wrong. This utmost confidence either comes from the strong trump card or someone else is with him.
For the first time after arriving here, he showed caution. Has that kid's hall sent a protector? He asked himself.
But as far as he knows the target came alone. The next moment, he appeared from the shadows and started following the group.
The doubts will be cleared soon. He wants to see what Vincent Carey is going to do.
20 minutes later,
On the other hand, the ugly-faced wizard arrived at the abandoned building. There are runic restrictions outside.
The ugly-faced wizard did something before the opening was created. He then led me inside the building.
When I entered the place, An extremely bad smell attacked my nostrils. The place was not at all clean. A dim red light is illuminating the room.
There are blood stains on the floor. It ranges from old and new. When I was observing the place. The ugly-faced wizard opened a secret passage between the walls and pushed me to enter inside.
After doing that he locked the door. The passage is going somewhere. And the red light is illuminating the route. The whole vibe gives me a creepy feeling.
Before going down there, I decided to hide for some time.
Swish!
The next moment, I appeared in the Gregor Mansion. Then I walked to the control room and sat on the chair before the mirror.
The passage was clearly shown in the mirror. Since I was not there, the commotion would surely follow. I want to see who else is hiding in this organization.
"A level-6 wizard uh?" My mouth curved into an arc.
Meanwhile,
The level-6 wizard in his room receives the report. A hint of surprise flashes in his eyes. The next moment, his expression became grave.
"It won't happen normally. Unless the person is from the police force. Don't tell me they have already started doing it," He muttered to himself.
He is not afraid of the wizard police organization. Just touching them would expose him and the organization. Then their police organization would send even more powerful wizards.
He doesn't want to restart it all. A frown appears on his face. First, he decided to meet this person.
But as the second passed, no one was coming to his area.
Meanwhile,
The triple killer enters the abandoned building. Even though he had kept his distance from the group earlier. Their conversations didn't go unnoticed.
He knows that the group of wizards led him towards their leader directly. The triple killer turns around.
His gaze was set on the secret passage. The next moment, he disappears into the wall and appears in the secret passage.
He then starts walking down to the passage. But he didn't know that he was completely exposed.
In the Gregor Mansion, I stood up from my seat. In the mirror, I see someone appearing directly inside the passage.
"Who is he?"
"Is he their boss?" I asked myself.
Then I shook my head before setting my gaze on the mirror. The leader was staying on the other side of the passage.
Things are going in different directions than I had expected.
Shortly after, I saw someone else coming from the other end.
Another wizard wearing ragged clothes appeared. But this time, there is something different. His demeanor is in contrast to those underlying wizards.
I could have used the system to detect their details. But my instinct tells me not to do that.
Meanwhile,
The triple killer was back outside. He had gone down there to look for Vincent. But there was no sign of him. He saw the level-6 boss of this evil organization.
But even he seems to be clueless. He is a strong level-6 wizard. But he didn't feel the sign of a mere level-5 wizard.
"Is this something to do with the trump card?" He asked himself.
There is a possibility for that. Some artifacts can hide one's presence for some time. Which means the target is still hiding inside.
Because he had been following them from the beginning. He can't let go of them from his sight. Especially the target Vincent Carey.
On the other hand, the level-6 boss of the red axis was pissed off. He thinks that person escaped.
"Idiots!"
"Come here," He started yelling out in anger.
A few seconds later,
His underlings gathered before him including the ugly wizard.
He asked, "Where was the captured person?"
The wizards turned towards the ugly-faced wizard. He was the one who led the team earlier.
"Boss, that person came with us. Then I pushed him to enter the passage. He should have seen you by now," The ugly-faced wizard said with a fearful expression.
He had messed up. He should have tied up that person. He didn't expect the person to be bold enough to fool everyone.
The level-6 wizard's expression turned dark. The place was under his control. Someone can't escape just like that.
He then orders everyone to spread around to search for the missing person.
Meanwhile,
The triple killer is also looking for Vincent Carey.
