Chapter 373 [Heart of the Organ Puppet](2/3)

However, Su Lun also wanted to understand something.

The priests of the Agapathenon Temple would get unconditional obedience from the Romans in whatever they did, but now they used deception.

In other words, the fact that someone in the temple throws a spear cannot be brought to light.

Otherwise, there is no need to hide it like this

There was a city-wide manhunt, and Su Lun's situation was not optimistic either.

He didn't expect that the commotion would be so big.

Looking at this situation, it will never end unless it is turned upside down.

There were obviously capable people among those guys. The troops were dispatched immediately to surround the slum area, then divided the complex shanty town into dozens of blocks, and then knocked on the door door by door.

None of the Romans failed to cooperate.

Those who don't cooperate must have something evil in mind.

Su Lun's original plan also had to change.

Even if he wears a human skin mask and disguises himself as a Roman, he is still a focus of attention as a solitary man with no family or friends. His origins, neighbors, and time of residence can easily be exposed.

And what's worse is that before he had time to go to several hiding places he had planned for, the Roman army blocked his way.

Because of the shared vision of the Black Crow and the perception of the Rune Umbrella, he narrowly avoided several waves, but the situation was getting worse and worse.

At this moment, Su Lun hid in a dark alley and was blocked again.

It is not difficult to kill these people, but once they are exposed, it will be troublesome later.

Looking at the interrogation scene in the distance, he felt very solemn in his heart: "It's too bad now. There are no 'family members' and 'acquaintances'. You will definitely be interrogated. It seems that the other party is focusing on people who have entered the city in the past few days."

Su Lun looked up and looked around. There were more and more people eating melons, and the chance of hiding without being discovered was getting smaller and smaller.

Just as he was thinking about which direction he had a better chance of winning, he suddenly saw a human head emerging from the second floor of a residential building not far away. She looked at Su Lun and greeted her with a questioning tone.

A voice: "Sir?"

Su Lun looked up and saw that the person he knew was actually the girl with big braids who bought puppets at the flea market last time. Her name seemed to be Kama.

I never thought she actually lived here.

Even with this glance, Karma apparently guessed that she had recognized the right person. A flash of hesitation flashed across her face, as if she had decided something, and then she greeted: "Sir, come here quickly!"

Su Lun didn't know how she recognized herself, but after thinking for a moment, she teleported and appeared in the room in that building.

The whole city is under curfew, but they are still wandering on the streets. They must be outsiders without a fixed residence.

As soon as Su Lun entered the room, he watched Karma take out a half-meter-long black rune puppet from the storage ring.

Upon inspection, it turned out to be a treasure.

【Substitute Puppet】

Detailed explanation: This is an antique puppet that has been passed down for thousands of years, with "Made by Robert Boyle" engraved on it; after bleeding, the puppet can replace the host and transfer all the causes and effects of the recent contamination, avoiding being tracked by mysterious means;

""

Su Lun was also surprised.

Because he knows how to refine this kind of [Substitute Puppet], but the materials needed for its transshipment are very difficult to find, and he has never seen it before.

I didn't expect to meet you here.

And when you look at the name of the producer on it, it turns out that it was made by his "senior brother" himself.

This Kama actually took out all her ancestral puppets?

Su Lun glanced at her in surprise: "For me?"

He also immediately understood that the other party had guessed that he was the one being hunted in the city now!

How did Kama discover this and recognize it so coincidentally?

While speaking, Su Lun also had caution in his eyes. The other party must have guessed something when he took out the puppet.

"If you feel the need, you're welcome."

Karma is obviously very smart. She looked at Su Lun's subtle expression and naturally guessed his doubts.

Being wanted by the whole city and being recognized will make everyone alert.

She used honorifics and added an explanation: "Don't get me wrong, I just feel that you need it. My talent is [B-098-Sixth Sense]. I just took the liberty to call you, and I thought it was you."

"

It turns out to be this talent.

Su Lun also showed surprise when he heard this, and then he took over the puppet.

"Thank you. This is a very precious treasure."

He thanked him, and without any delay, he cut a small incision with silk thread on his finger and smeared the blood on the puppet.

Originally, he would not accept a treasure of this level from a stranger for no reason, but now that the situation forced him to accept it, he could not tolerate being polite and had to use it.

Blood was smeared on it, and a flash of spiritual light flashed on the puppet.

Kama responded: "You're welcome. My father often taught me that treasures are given precious value because they are used in the right place."

She looked at everything in her eyes, and the thought in her mind confirmed something: someone who knew how to use this puppet must be a descendant of her lineage of puppet masters.

She also instantly felt that the treasure was entrusted to the right person, and said: "You can throw it in the fireplace."

"Um."

Su Lun nodded, threw the bloody puppet into the burning fireplace, and breathed a sigh of relief.

The puppets were burned. Now, no one will be able to trace them through some of the causes and effects created tonight.

Now even if he is caught, he is not afraid anymore

People must know the value of family heirlooms. Su Lun did not intend to take advantage of others. He said directly: "The [Substitute Puppet] just now is very precious. What do you want in exchange?"

Karma listened to Su Lun say the name of the puppet, shook his head and said: "Although Sir, that puppet is precious, it is of little use to me. You don't need to take it to heart."

Su Lun felt that it was probably because of the few drawings he had been given before that he got the rewards he had now.

Karma asked: "Sir, are you a descendant of the Puppet Master line?"

Su Lun didn't hide anything and said bluntly: "Yes!"

Hearing this, Karma's clear brown pupils immediately flashed with light, "Really! Which lineage of inheritance are you?"

Puppet masters are already in the minority, and now they have met a fellow disciple, so they are no longer outsiders.

Su Lun hesitated for a moment.

Which lineage?

It's really hard to say.

In terms of seniority, should this girl call him Zuzushishu?

Kama looked at his hesitation for a moment, thinking that he had touched some privacy, and quickly said: "Oh, sir, if it's not convenient for you to tell me, you don't have to."

Before she finished speaking, Su Lun shook his head and said: "It's not that it's inconvenient to say. It's just that it's very troublesome to explain. I am a disciple of Teacher Seraya."

Hearing this, Karma showed a hint of suspicion on his face. Apparently he was thinking that he had never heard of this lineage.

According to the notes left by his ancestors, there are only a few inheritances of puppet masters.

etc!

Teacher Ceria?

Could it be that "Seraya" he was talking about?

The founder of the Puppet Master line?!

how could it be possible!

Su Lun looked at Kama's sudden expression of confusion and shock, and said with some helplessness: "It's what you think. It's just that it's a little troublesome to explain."

"this"

Karma listened and his eyes widened.

I thought I was a senior brother from a certain lineage, but turned out to be my ancestor, ancestor, uncle?

The gentleman in front of me is an old monster who has lived for a thousand years?

After this idea came to his mind, Karma's expression instantly became extremely strange.

Su Lun knew that this statement was a bit unbelievable, so he hesitated just now.

He was not prepared to explain, saying: "I'm not that old. But it's a bit troublesome to explain. If there is a chance in the future, I will elaborate more."

He did not hide the fact that he was the one searching for people outside, and said: "You solved a lot of trouble for me, and even saved me. But I may cause you trouble if I am here."

Kama became even more frightened when she heard this. She seemed to have thought of something and said quickly: "No! It won't be troublesome! If you don't mind, you can stay here. I can help you."
