Chapter 427 Lilia is the guardian!
Two days later, after staying in his residence for two days without finding any trace of the eavesdropper, Mo Cheng lost his patience to continue searching.
He realized that he didn't have enough time to slowly look for signs of the eavesdropper. Instead of blindly looking for the other party's traces, it would be better to put this matter aside for the time being.
Because there are more important things to do, the batch of instruments customized for the Winterhold School of Magic, the contact with the Dragon Cult, and the investigation of the four-winged, three-headed dragon that Dorothy saw in the stars.
Also, find traces of the [Dragon Tomb].
At the same time, Mo Cheng guessed that since the other party revealed his flaws and was discovered by him because he heard the [Dragon Tomb], the eavesdropper should have a considerable connection with the [Dragon Tomb].
If you want to find the other party, then it might be a good idea to start from the [Dragon Tomb].
There are many things to do at hand, but fortunately, I don't need to complete them all by myself. To investigate the batch of customized instruments, I can not only start from the Dragon Worship Order, but also from the local nobles.
And just yesterday, a lady from Rothal invited Helena to watch the opera together. According to Helena, the lady's business had cooperated with the Seranis family for a period of time, and this invitation was probably to find out what the Seranis family wanted to do.
Today the group split into two groups. Helena went to the appointment, and brought with her Isabella, Theresa and Dorothy, three seventh-level [Hero] level warriors, which was enough to make her be looked up to by other nobles.
At the same time, in order to prevent the eavesdropper from appearing again, Mo Cheng also put a bracelet on Helena before they set out. It was an avatar that could be created by splitting and becoming, created through the [Seventy-two Transformations], ensuring the safety of Helena and her group.
As for his true self, he took Lilia and Taesai to look for traces of the Dragon Cult.
The goal today is to establish a relationship with the local nobles and the Dragon Worshipping Order, and use their power to find the instruments.
As for the secondary purpose, it is to lure out the eavesdropper by dividing the troops to see if he will appear and attack one party.
…
“Big Brother…”
Walking on the street, Lilia pointed to a shop nearby and said, "Let's go over there and take a look."
Following Lilia's finger, I saw a famous jewelry store.
"Is Lilia also at this age?" Mo Cheng joked, "She has reached the age where she starts to pursue jewelry to decorate herself."
"I think I'm helping you, big brother." Lilia rolled her eyes and said earnestly, "Go there so that you can buy some gifts to give back to others."
Lilia stretched out her hand and pointed, "Sister Loni, Sister Margaret, Princess Mishas, Sister Isabella, Sister Theresa, and Teacher Dorothy."
As she spoke, Lilia looked at Mo Cheng with regret, "Big brother, your behavior today... was very stupid."
Lilia was referring to the fact that Mo Cheng gave Helena a bracelet, which was given in front of everyone else before departure. The look Lilia gave to Mo Cheng at that time was as if she was looking at a rare and precious animal that had disappeared for a long time.
If Lilia didn't know she couldn't beat him, she would have wanted to pry open Mo Cheng's head to see what was inside.
" Lilia, you're saying weird things again. It turns out you don't have enough homework."
Without paying attention to Lilia's words, nor following her advice, Mo Cheng waved his hand and said, "You guys go for a walk first, I'll be back soon."
As he spoke, Mo Cheng disappeared in the crowd.
On the other side, Taisai, who was holding a large bag of desserts in his hand, finally stopped chewing, looked at Mo Cheng who had already gone far away, then looked at Lilia, and asked: "Is he always like this?"
Watching Mo Cheng leave without looking back , Lilia took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled to calm herself down.
"Yes, it has always been like this. He often gets very close to other women and doesn't know how to keep a distance. However, every contact is based on quite normal premises."
"But if you don't pay attention, you will find that the way those women look at him has changed since some time ago."
Lilia rambled on for a long time, then sighed and said, "Let's go."
"Where are you going?"
"Go pick out some gifts so that the guardian who has absolutely no emotional intelligence can balance his chaotic interpersonal relationships."
Looking at the luxuriously decorated shop, Tai Sai asked, "Do you have money? The things in that kind of shop are very expensive."
Lilia raised the white crystal card in her hand and said, "I don't have it, but big brother does. Whoever has the problem should pay for it."
Lilia couldn't help feeling dejected when she thought about choosing suitable gifts for several people and thinking of good excuses.
But there is no way. Looking at her guardian's increasingly dangerous interpersonal relationships, although they are currently strangely maintaining a dynamic balance, Lilia feels that if this continues, Mo Cheng will end in a bloody end sooner or later.
Died of passion murder!
In order to avoid having to change her guardian again before she came of age, Lilia still forced herself to work hard to clean up the mess of her guardian's thoughtless gift giving.
Looking at Lilia's back as she walked towards the store, Taisai didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the identities of guardian and ward seemed to be reversed.
Why does it seem like this little white-haired girl is more worried than her guardian?
Which side takes care of which side?
…
On the other side, Mo Cheng blended into the crowd, changing his image every few steps.
He had walked back and forth on this street several times and passed by Lilia five times, but the white-haired little girl did not notice him.
No pursuers were found and the security alert here was lifted.
At the same time, Mo Cheng closed his eyes and sensed the movements of his clones. Helena and the others were watching the opera and there was nothing unusual.
Helena is also safe.
"Huh, points can make the level not enough."
Mo Cheng has always used [Divide and Succeed] as a second health bar, or a double output BUFF, but when the situation required multiple clones, he found that only two clones did not seem to be enough.
It is necessary to find a copy that can be speed-run, and obtain skill points from it to refine golden skill points.
With this thought in mind, Mo Cheng changed his appearance again and slipped into a remote dark alley.
Smelling the faint smell of blood coming from the dark alley, Mo Cheng shook his head, and secretly thanked God that he did not bring Lilia and Taisai here.
"I knew this place was going to end up with some bat joke or a lone hero scene."
