That night, Makiyama Hayata summoned all members of the defense club and checked everyone overnight, but no other shadow people were found.

This is not unexpected by everyone. Since the forces on the opposite side know that they have been exposed, even if there are still people hanging around here, they will definitely ask people to evacuate in advance.

As for the inspection method, the light source is quickly rotated above a person's head to observe whether the shadow changes comply with physical laws.

Even if those shadow people can actively adjust the direction of the shadow, under such high-speed and irregular inspection, human control cannot keep up with the changing speed of the light source, and flaws will definitely be exposed!

After learning that someone from the other world forces had infiltrated their high-level positions, the Japanese government finally paid attention to it and hurriedly asked various departments to use the methods provided by the exchange team to conduct self-examination overnight.

In the past, players had been using skins to infiltrate into the aboriginal people. From a player's perspective, it didn't feel very real. It was only now that creatures from other worlds used similar methods to infiltrate into humans. Many people realized how terrifying this was.

Things.

This large-scale self-examination did find something. Although no other shadow people were directly caught, a few employees disappeared inexplicably tonight. There is a high probability that they were the shadow people who escaped early.

While Japan is conducting a self-examination, the Defense Society has also started a meeting with representatives of the exchange group to discuss how to handle this incident.

Mu You did not participate in the specific meeting process. After talking to the Blood Emperor and others, he returned to the accommodation arranged by the reception in advance.

On the one hand, it's because this kind of diplomatic meeting is the same with or without him. On the other hand, he also has his own meeting to attend tonight.

Today is Wednesday again, and early in the morning is the time for the occult meeting of the new week.

Mu You rested in the room for a while, and when twelve o'clock arrived, he went to attend the meeting on time.

This meeting did not have any important external events to discuss, but focused on solving the internal problems of the Occult Association.

This time, only nine people came to the twelve positions, and the ones missing were Taurus, Gemini and Scorpio.

Regarding the matter of Scorpio, after Muyou dealt with Z Realm Walker last week, he informed other members that the crystal of Scorpio is now in his hands.

Mu You didn't say much clearly at the time, but some smart association members had guessed it. His previous statement that the crystal would automatically find an heir after the mystic's death was just an excuse. The crystal would not leave automatically after the death of the host.

Instead, it will be obtained by the person who is killed.

This point can actually be seen from when Z World Walker entered the meeting last week: after Z World Walker killed Scorpio, he directly obtained Scorpio's crystal, and later he threatened to hunt other people's crystals.<

/p>

In other words, one person can inherit multiple crystals at the same time. This is not difficult to understand. After all, this thing is a complete piece.

Therefore, Mu You did not hide anything at this meeting, and made it clear that the crystals of Gemini and Scorpio were in his hands. The purpose of saying that in the first place was just to avoid infighting within the team.

However, after experiencing so many meetings and last week's incident, the character and character of the members present have been tested. He believes that the remaining ten members in the meeting are now familiar enough with each other and have reached a high level of trust.

We will never betray or harm each other again.

In addition, there is another important reason why Muyou chose to announce this information directly, and that is the existence of the ‘Black Magic Association’.

According to the information left by the Kaitou, this special organization seems to have developed a lower-level substitute for the secret crystal, and it is one that can be mass-produced.

Mu You is not yet sure how far this substitute can go, but as long as this thing has the ability to store and transform natural magic power, it will have the opportunity to complete the crystallization for each of them. This is much more efficient than their internal fighting.

.

So when Muyou announced the news, he also announced information about the black magic club, and assigned tasks to each member, asking everyone to find clues and information about the club. Next, this mysterious black magic club

The magic organization will become the focus of the association strategy!

After the meeting, everyone started exchanging cards for the week as usual.

Muyou has come up with a new card this week: 'Transposition', which is a black magic that is transformed from high-level space magic.

The black magic version of transposition still has the effect of instantly switching the positions of itself and nearby targets, but it has an additional effect: this swap will not be affected by other magic effects.

The original transposition will not be activated when encountering some forced blocking magic effects, such as ice wall spells, water prison spells, and some space and magic blocking type partitions. Those who are blocked behind such walls

Target, transposition will not be able to be locked.

After turning into black magic, there is no such restriction. In other words, no matter what kind of dilemma Mu You is in now, as long as there is a target within the casting range, he can instantly change the situation between himself and the target.
p>

Although it is just a simple additional effect, it has very practical uses. For example, he can now lock himself in a water prison in advance, and then swap places with the enemy, and he will instantly become the enemy and be imprisoned by him.

In the same way, in a place like the Undersea Prison, it would have been much easier if he had known this spell. He could have easily escaped by simply finding a target outside the prison to exchange.

This card is very popular, but unfortunately it is a high-level card and is not easy to swap out, because the number of high-level scrolls is very small, and it is not easy to convert high-level black magic.

Fortunately, I was lucky this time, and finally got a high-level scroll from Libra, and it was also of the space system.

[Space Convergence: After activation, the surrounding space within a radius of five meters will be converged, so that the creatures within the range will be gathered together instantly.]

According to Libra, this scroll was planned to be traded with Scorpio last week, but he didn't expect Z Realm Walker to arrive, so it was delayed until now.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

The content of this scroll also surprised Mu You. Space Confinement, this spell is actually Liu Chen's 'Conclusion Spell'. He has experienced the actual effect many times, and it can be said to be a magical skill for killing monsters!

Mu You has been coveting this spell for a long time, and now he finally got one, and now that he has space crystals, he can turn this spell into black magic later.

After a while, the meeting ended and Mu You returned to the room.

Although he only got one scroll this time, it was a spell that suited him very well. Muyou was in a good mood. He turned on his phone, looked at the exchange group, and after confirming that nothing was wrong, he logged into the game.

【You appear in the south area of ​​the underground factory.】

[As soon as you approach this area, you hear the laughter and noise of many children. Obviously, there are people living in this area, and there are a lot of them.]

[You drive into the South District and find that the building layout here is almost the same as that in the East District of the North District. There are living areas, accommodation areas, amusement parks, and canteens. The difference is that the buildings here look much newer than the other two districts. 】

[You are walking around the South District and find that this area looks like a large nursery. You see many children here, judging from their height, most of them are between five and seven years old, gathered in the playground.

Laughing happily, chasing each other and playing around.]

[A little boy noticed you, his eyes lit up as if he had discovered some novel toy.]

[The little boy runs towards you, pulling the mechanical crystal rainbow piece above your head, and shouts into the distance: "Come and see, this robot is lazy!"]

[More children are running towards you, and you are surrounded by a group of naughty children.]

【You feel a group of little hands touching you.】

[A gear part from your waist has been stolen...]

[Your crawler was kicked crooked...]

……

"emmm..."

Mu You had a black line in his head and hurriedly retraced his steps.

The naughty kid is really scary. He didn't fall into the hands of the shadow people, but these naughty kids discovered the abnormality.

[You went back in time and sped away from the scene before the little boy approached you...]

Mu You hurriedly controlled the game character to escape. He was relieved until the game prompted, 'The little boy has given up chasing you.'

After being tortured here, Mu You finally understood. No wonder Luke complained that the robots always broke down so quickly. It was not because of the defective products sold by the seller, but because they were all damaged by these bears.

The child caused it!

In fact, Mu You has also explored another part of the East District in the past two days. There are also some children living in the East District, generally around 7 to 10 years old. However, the children there are lifeless, and there is no sound of laughter at all in the area.

Not to mention that there are no children who casually treat robots as toys. All children follow the rules and are careful in every move. Even the game text uses the words "angry" and "numb" to describe the children there. It seems that everyone has experienced it.

Many desperate incidents.

In comparison, these children in the South District look more like they have just arrived, have not experienced any setbacks, and still maintain their innocence and vitality. It is difficult to imagine what these children have experienced in just one or two years before they are able to

Such a big change has occurred...

Shaking his head, Mu You continued to explore the Southern District, staying away from children whenever he encountered them on the way.

After wandering like this for two or three hours, he finally discovered a special place.

【You see a library appearing in front of you.】

After finding a library full of children's books, Mu You was certainly not interested, but in a place like a library, 'clues' can easily appear.

[You drove into the library and found that except for a nearly scrapped robot acting as the librarian at the door, there was no trace of anyone else in the entire library.]

[You drove into the library in the shape of a cleaning robot. The old robot administrator at the door ignored you and allowed you to enter and clean.]

[You attacked the robot administrator from behind! The robot, which was almost scrapped, could not withstand such intense torment and immediately fell into a state of paralysis.]

[You damaged the 'recording circuit' of the robot administrator and processed the scene to make it look like it was destroyed by a naughty child.]

After killing the administrator, Mu You switched back to his vampire skin and began to cast search spells in the library, searching for clues about Louise.

After searching from the first floor to the sixth floor, Mu You finally found something.

[You have searched for an item related to Corday Louise.]

[You follow the guide and search forward, and finally take down a dusty book from the top of the third row of bookcases against the wall.]

[This is an old fairy tale book. Its unattractive cover and clichéd story make this book one of the least popular books in the entire library, as can be seen from the thickness of the dust on the surface.

, no one has borrowed it for a long time.]

[But you found a note tucked under the cover of this book.]

【Fragments of Louise's diary.】
