"Is this map real or fake?"

At the Bloody Dawn headquarters, a group of people gathered around the hand-drawn map displayed on the big screen, all with this question in their minds.

"This picture is so detailed that it doesn't look like a graffiti. Judging from the style of the buildings and routes above, it is also consistent with the map we have. So at least it is certain that the artist must have seen the real Sky City with his own eyes.

Map!" The bald black man sitting in the first place said: "And there will be no more than 300 such people among all the players, and the range is very small. Of course, it is also possible that the ghost captain deliberately released a fake map to confuse us.

.”

The others frowned when they heard this, wondering whether the dignified number one master would really engage in such a meaningless method?

"Do you think that Fragment Five is not in the hands of Captain Ghost at all?" Leng Ye frowned at this time: "At the blood clan meeting, the vampire count claimed to have taken out Fragment Five, but no one else could confirm it.

At this point, the devil knows whether he got five."

"But if Fragment 5 is in the hands of a third party, what does it mean if the other party releases the picture?" another person asked.

This is the most confusing thing for them. No matter who owns this picture, if it is made public directly, the value of the picture itself will be greatly depreciated in an instant, leaving only the basic function of opening the entrance.

, which is equivalent to giving one's own interests to others unconditionally, without expecting anything in return.

"Or maybe there's a mole on Captain Ghost's side?!" another person speculated.

"Isn't this unlikely?" Leng Ye frowned: "It's the same problem, it won't do any good. Even if there is a mole, after getting the map, he should have contacted us privately and used the map in exchange for benefits. What's going on if he just makes it public?

?”

"Why are my brains burning again? I don't like doing questions the most. Wouldn't it be better to just join hands and have a fight..." The young man lay on the table, scratching his head in distress.

Everyone else present looked at the young man speechlessly. How could the fight for a city in the sky be such a child's play? Every confrontation now is a process of competing for advantages between competitors, and every additional advantage will eventually lead to victory.

The probability of winning the city lord is one more point.

"Actually, there is another possibility..." The white man wearing sunglasses puffed out cigarette smoke and suddenly spoke.

"Say." The tyrant looked at him.

Everyone else also looked over.

"Fragment Five may really be in Captain Ghost's hands now, but this picture may not be in his hands at the beginning. After all, his main energy in the early stage needs to be used to rob Dawn City.

In other words, this picture is very likely that Captain Ghost snatched it from someone else, so it is possible that the person who originally had this picture has seen this picture." said the man in sunglasses.

"Wait, but in this case, that person needs to collect three fragments to lift the fog on the map!" Leng Ye questioned. They had collected six fragments in their hands before, and only three were left outside.

Zhang, is it possible that all three of these cards were in the hands of another person before, but none of the Ghost Captains?

"So what if there are three? Don't forget, we had two fragments before, and we got them inexplicably." The man in sunglasses reminded.

Several people were stunned when they heard this, and then they immediately remembered something.

They actually only had four fragments at the beginning. Until the weekend ten days ago, they used the map to search for other fragments as usual. They actually found two Eternal Night City fragments in another underground city hundreds of kilometers away. And this

The two fragments were thrown on the ground without any concealment, as if they were discarded garbage.

They were originally very worried about this matter, but after taking it back for testing, they found that these two pieces were indeed genuine Eternal Night City fragments without any manipulation, so they relieved their worries and happily accepted them.

Until now, the incident in front of them reminded them of a more possible situation.

"You mean, our two fragments also came from the person who published the map?" the tyrant asked with a frown.

"Yes." The man in sunglasses nodded: "Let's review the whole thing: Ten days ago, besides us and Captain Ghost, there was another person who held three fragments. The distribution of fragments at that time should be four, three, two,

We have four, this guy has three, and Captain Ghost has two."

"After that, this person probably had a conflict with the Ghost Captain, and the Ghost Captain snatched one of the fragments away. As for the remaining two pieces, perhaps he was afraid that the Ghost Captain would follow the guidance and find the location, so the person could only choose to discard them.

.”

"You mean, this person has a grudge because the Ghost Captain snatched the pieces, and now he's releasing the map just to get revenge on him?" Leng Ye asked with a strange look on his face.

"This is the only possibility I can think of." The man in sunglasses nodded.

"But, if you want revenge, wouldn't it be better to cooperate with us directly? Not only have you attacked the ghost captain, you can also get some rewards from us." Angelia, the wolf beauty, asked doubtfully.

"Probably, he is still afraid of being exposed..." The man in sunglasses thought for a while and said: "Judging from the behavior of this person who discarded other pieces after being robbed, it is obvious that the other party is very afraid that his position will be discovered, and cooperates with us.

After all, we need to communicate, and as long as we communicate, we may expose ourselves.”

"Be careful...is this ghost captain so scary?" the young man muttered.

"Actually, it's not necessarily the ghost captain that the other party is afraid of." At this time, the man in sunglasses said again.

"Oh? What should I say?"

"Judging from the location and on-site conditions where we found the two fragments, the fragments were thrown on the ground casually by someone, which shows that the person left in a hurry and had no time to do anything. And the most important thing is that these two fragments were thrown on the ground casually by someone.

The fragment was not picked up by the ghost captain, but was discovered by us first, which means that the ghost captain was not nearby at the time." The man in sunglasses said: "Then the question is, since the ghost captain was not there, who was this person at that time?

What are you afraid of?"

After saying that, there was silence all around.

The man in sunglasses looked up and saw a group of people still looking at him eagerly, waiting for him to continue his analysis.

"Ahem, there's only so much that can be guessed from the existing information..." The man in sunglasses said hurriedly, and then looked at a subordinate next to him: "Have you contacted the owner of this post?"

"No, the other party never agreed to the friend request, and the messages he sent were never replied to," the subordinate said.

"As expected..." The man in sunglasses nodded, which was in line with his expectations.

Others also looked at each other in confusion. This person did not dare to reply, which just proved that the analysis just now was very likely to be true.

"If your guess is correct, then this map should be real."

The tyrant looked at the enlarged drawing on the projector: "This is good news for us. In this way, we have gathered the routes 1, 2, 3, 6 and 5. Next, we only need to guard entrance No. 1 and wait.

Just put the pieces together!”

…

Mu You didn't know that someone in Bloody Dawn had already analyzed the reasons for this incident.

At this moment, he and Lin Xue were also discussing this post.

However, because they have more information, the conclusions they draw here are different from those in Bloody Dawn.

"It seems that the purpose of Hongxiu releasing this picture is to speed up the opening of Yongye City..."

This is the conclusion Mu You and Lin Xue came to after discussing it.

Hong Xiu and the old man who rescued her at that time should now be hiding in the unborn Dawn City, not only to escape from the world, but also to avoid the time guards. In this way, all things that may reveal their location need to be destroyed and discarded.

This includes map fragments.

And now, the other party deliberately disclosed the No. 5 map. Of course, it cannot be just because of revenge. This important decision must be purposeful.

When combined with the current situation, the purpose is not difficult to understand: most likely the other party has discovered that the competition in Eternal Night City has entered a stalemate stage, and the opening of Eternal Night City has the restriction of lightless night. If it cannot be opened in these few days,

We had to wait another month. In order to break this deadlock and speed up the opening of Eternal Night City, the other party released the map.

The question now is: What benefits will it bring to them if Eternal Night City is opened as soon as possible?

I'm afraid only the other party knows this question, and you can't guess it by guessing.

Muyou shook his head, closed the post, and logged into the game again.

The announcement of the map is equivalent to directly adding a core fragment to Bloody Dawn. In this way, Bloody Dawn's No. 1 entrance route should have been assembled, and the advantage has completely shifted to the opponent's side, which has also made him passive.

.

At this time, Mu You also had to make some substantive responses to reverse the situation: he was going to go to the Duke of the Blood Tribe first and have a straight-to-the-point talk.

【You appear in the dark alley of the Undercity.】

[There is silence all around. You check the surroundings vigilantly, but you don’t find any trace of an ambush...]

This time online, it was rare that I was not attacked by those little wolves again.

This is normal. With an absolute advantage, the other party doesn't have to do anything now. Just sit tight on the Diaoyutai and wait for the entrance to open.

Mu You controlled the character to leave the alley and chose to 'go to Duke Brand's residence'.

In the past two days, he followed Mai everywhere to visit other vampires, and he visited all the places where the vampires lived.

But what he didn't expect was that as soon as he walked out, two people appeared and stopped him.

【You walk out of the alley.】

[Two bats fly from the front, land in front of you, and transform into two blood servants from the Vanzhuo family, bowing to you politely. 】

["Lord Liston, Your Majesty the Duke invites you." One of the blood servants smiled and made an inviting gesture. 】

Mu You was stunned. He was just about to find the Duke of the Blood Race, but the other party actually came to him first?

Speaking of which, not long after the fragmented post on Earth was published, he turned around and received an invitation. Could it be that...

Mu You had already vaguely guessed something, and without saying much at this time, he controlled the character to follow the two blood servants.

[You followed the blood servant to an inconspicuous courtyard on the edge of the Undercity, where the Vanzhuo family resides. 】

[After being interrogated by a vampire at the door, you are allowed to enter the courtyard.]
