Chapter Ch123.2 - Black Ma.s.s

In the distance, two compet.i.tors came running over. The first one moved like the wind. Seeing that Wu Jin was holding a shovel, they quickly also picked up a shovel from beneath a tree and ran over to Wu Jin with a swish.

Ming Yaos eyes were narrowed with his smile, and he looked like a fox with a big tail. The scent of perfume from the mistress lingered on him, just like on Wu Jin. Little Witch, lets play in the mud! Together, together!

Wu Jin had never met such a brazen person who came so shamelessly to try and obtain the instance rules. Vera quietly approached Ming Yaos teammate and divided the battlefield.

Wu Jin thought about it a little, and thought of how the soil was hard to dig up and simply nodded. Together.

Now, it was Ming Yao who looked warily at Wu Jin.

The two of them took turns digging for a few minutes. Wu Jin quietly kept them digging in the direction away from the hard objects that the shovel had encountered before, and Ming Yao suddenly tossed the shovel away. Youre being lazy!

Wu Jin quibbled, No, Im not!

Ming Yao crossed his arms over his chest and was about to leave, Im not digging anymore, you play by yourself.

Wu Jin was very happy, Okay, okay!

Ming Yao looked back with every step, saw Wu Jin staring at the dirt, and then leapt back in an instant. He picked up a shovel, wanting to intercept the booty.

There was nothing in the earth.

Wu Jin made an expression like hed seen the light, and tossed the shovel away, waving a hand to Vera, Lets go.

Ming Yao was immediately stunned silly. He quickly crouched beside the big pit and meditated on it, then beckoned for his teammate to come over, Take a look at whats inside, am I stupid

His teammate was simply tired of it, Are you stupid! Theres nothing inside, he tricked you! Lets catch up with Little Witchs team!

Ming Yao slapped himself on the head and ran off at full tilt.

In the Grand Trianon Palace, Wu Jin and Vera were shuttling quickly through the corridors, with hurried footsteps behind them. When they pa.s.sed Montespans room, Vera tossed a stone into the opposite corridor and pushed open the door, pulling Wu Jin inside to hide.

The pursuers finally went away.

We dont have much time. Vera pulled out her machete, Theyll find this place soon.

Wu Jin nodded, and searched through Montespans bookcase as fast as lightning. Romance novels, legal doc.u.ments, legal doc.u.ments, more legal doc.u.ments

Wu Jins fingers paused.

A guest log for 1677.

Between April and July were hundreds of densely packed entries. After glancing through it, Wu Jin stuffed the record into his combat uniform and picked out several other books related to religion off the bookshelf.

Vera: Ready to go?

Wu Jin: Wait half a minute. The youth quickly took out pen and paper from the desk and wrote a small line of text, k2018;Peace Hall in the Palace of Versailles, the third cabinet to the left and stuck it in the lower right corner of the painting.

Vera watched as Wu Jin forged clues and quickly gave him a thumbs up. Apart from the writing that was round and overly cute, there was nothing wrong with it at all!

The two of them quickly withdrew from the side door to the room, just as Ming Yaos footsteps could be heard coming in from the main entrance.

Wu Jin slowly, slowly closed the door behind them.

The two of them walked quickly out to the corridor and looked for a safe zone

Vera suddenly looked out the window.

Next to the big hole that Wu Jin had dug out was Thin Fire, who had followed the clues, and was now squatting next to the hole to try and understand the situation.

The two of them immediately hid themselves back behind the window. Veras heart beat quickly, Isnt there something else that hasnt been dug out yet? Will he continue

Wu Jin shook his head, According to the reasoning of normal players, theyll only think that something has already been taken away.

Outside the window, Thin Fire thought about it for a long time and finally looked over at the Red Rose Ning Fengbei with a long face, Someone was one step ahead of us.

Ning Fengbei showed an expression of concern reserved for the mentally handicapped, The person who found the clue was originally in the Grand Trianon Palace. If they didnt take it away, do you think they left it here for you? Do you think theyd be that generous?

The Red Rose waved one of her jade-like hands, Go, go and search the Trianon Palace!

Vera breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at Wu Jin with s.h.i.+ning eyes. In this situation, she would believe everything Wu Jin said.

Wu Jin comforted her, As long as we dont encounter anyone with unorthodox patterns of thought, theyll all head off to search the palace.

The side door squeaked open, and the two of them hid inside to study Montespans guest log. From April to July, there were 26 Catherine entries. Veras eyes were almost black with frustration.

In 17th century France, the famous ladies obviously liked the same names: Anne, Marie, Catherine.

Wu Jin followed the records and looked at each of them in turn. Most of these Catherines were countesses, marquises, and n.o.ble ladies

He suddenly stopped at an entry.

Catherine from Paris, a midwife madame.

Midwife Vera reacted immediately, Those dead babies used for the Black Ma.s.s!

They quickly flipped the pages. This Catherine from Paris visited twice in April, once in May and June, and three times in July.

She stayed in the 6th guest room of the left wing every time.

Its her. Wu Jin finally confirmed it. On the other side of the window, Ming Yao suddenly ran out with his teammate and headed towards the Palace of Versailles.

Vera sighed emotionally, They really went to look for the third cabinet to the left.

Footsteps rang outside the door as Thin Fire and the Red Rose entered the palace at the same time.

Wait until they leave the corridor. Wu Jin spoke succinctly.

Next to the big hole in the lawn were now two B-level trainees. They then crouched next to the hole in the same meditative posture as Thin Fire and slapped their thighs after a long time, Like I said, how could the hole be empty, someone has taken whatever was in it away a long time ago!

From across the corridor, Montespans bedroom door was opened up, and Wu Jin confirmed that Thin Fires team had entered the bedroom through the crack in the door.

Lets go.

Vera quickly followed Wu Jin out of the hiding place, and they snuck away towards the midwife Catherines room.

The sixth guest room in the left wing was simply decorated, with pure white curtains fluttering in the breeze. Vera looked at her wrist.w.a.tch, Theres four hours before the dance begins.

Wu Jin nodded, and the two of them cooperated and began to search.

It wasnt beyond their expectations to find a portrait of Catherine hung up to one side of the wall as a hint to the contestants.

Its indeed her. Vera breathed a sigh of relief and looked carefully at the portrait. The Catherine in the painting was about 40 years old, wrapped in a midwifes headdress, and her portrait was held up by the devil.

The comments about her shouldnt be good. Vera spoke thoughtfully as she ran her fingertips over the spine of the books. Having acc.u.mulated countless amounts of experience in searching and flipping through books, she was particularly accurate with this attempt, finding the book containing Catherines court trial to flip through, Taking advantage of her ident.i.ty as a midwife to steal thousands of dead and stillborn babies, and holding evil religious ceremonies. After investigation, her clients included several n.o.bles and the Kings mistress In addition to selling poison, she was also accused of attempting to a.s.sa.s.sinate the King punishment by fire

Montespan must have been implicated by her. Catherines arrest in 1680 coincides with Montespans banishment. Wu Jin spoke as he opened up a note signed by Catherine Monvoisin.

This should be my last visit to Madame de Montespan. She asked for

Aqua Tofana

. Lord, even the Black Ma.s.s hasnt satisfied her appet.i.te.

The lady said, if the King had already fallen out of love with her, then shed rather follow in the footsteps of the Italian women

Wu Jin hid the last notebook.

Almost all of the clues had been collected together.

Vera raised her eyebrows and smiled, Lets dig a hole?

Wu Jin nodded, Dig a hole and get ready to clear the instance.

The two of them were just about to go outside when they suddenly heard a conversation outside in the corridor.

Ning Fengbei: ? Youre actually coming in handy?!

Thin Fire expressed, Those words look like Little Witchs at a glance. Its as fat as his painting. Fine, this instance is now very simple. Whats the point in looking for clues? Catch Little Witch!

Wu Jin choked.

At this time, Vera suddenly reminded him, Wait a minute, the cards clue has changed to Aqua Tofana! As for the hole

Outside the window, Caesar and Little Ran were crouched beside the hole, and Caesar had a shovel in his hands.

Little Ran was going crazy with anger, I already told you! Others have taken the clues away a long time ago. Youre still digging? Youre still digging for what?!

Caesar was adamant, Why cant I dig? That tarot card said it already, Im the son of destiny. Maybe someone left something behind when they dug

After saying so, he started digging at the earth.

Vera trembled as she looked back, According to normal players reasoning, theyll only think that something has already been taken away

Ceasar wasnt a normal player at all!

Wu Jins heart thumped. By the time Caesar dug out whatever was there, getting the props from Caesar and Little Ran would be no less difficult than trying to finish off a different instance

There was only one other way.

Wu Jin immediately made up his mind, kicked the door open, and shouted loudly, Brother Thin!

Juurensha: Are you going to force the White and Red Roses to team up???
