Chapter 238 "Normal Mansion"

Because they were inside the city, the carriage was not moving very fast, but even if the horses were just moving at a "strolling" pace, they still quickly crossed the red line that Lucian had anchored earlier.

Lucian looked at Janos, who was reading a document beside him, and quietly took out a silver coin.

Just throw it away.

reverse side.

reverse side.

"Hmm?" Janos noticed Lucian's little movement, temporarily put down the document he was reading, and looked at Lucian.

“No…it’s okay.” Lucian managed a smile, acting like a child trying unsuccessfully to hide the silver coins behind his back.

"Money is for buying things, not for playing." Janos gently reminded him, then he stopped paying attention to Lucian and began to concentrate on reading his documents.

Lucian heaved a sigh of relief and put the silver coins away. He then looked out the window, his palms slightly sweating.

Although Lucian seemed very confident in front of Hercules, he still felt a little guilty when it came time for him to act on his own.

After all, he might not be facing a human being, but a life form that could be called a "god". Although his strength would be suppressed to an extremely low level in the real world, the huge gap between the life levels of a "mortal" and a "god" still made Lucian's heart tighten, and he could only adjust his mentality slightly through some breathing control techniques in meditation.

"So many people..." Soon, the carriages came to a near standstill in front of the gate of the Mondok family mansion. Many families' carriages were now jammed in front of the gate of the Mondok family mansion, and they could only queue up in turn and wait slowly for the road to be cleared.

"What's going on?" Janos put down the documents in his hand.

"I heard that something happened in a house in the Mondok family. Marquis Mondok has ordered people to temporarily seal off several houses there..."

Lucian's ears twitched.

houses?

Temporary blockade?

If the Mondok family was just an ordinary family, Lucian would definitely not think too much about it, but since it has been confirmed that there are big problems hidden in the Mondok family, and it may even be an important stronghold of the Chaos Goblins, this "accident" seems a bit deliberate and coincidental.

"Of course, this could also be a trap set by the Chaos Goblins to mislead some players. I need to go inside the Mondok family and observe it carefully."

Lucian gently closed his eyes. At this moment, he didn't even dare to use his mental power as a tentacles to sense the surrounding situation, for fear that he would be discovered by some interested players when using his mental power to detect.

After all, although mental detection is very covert, among the practitioners in many worlds, there are inevitably a few who are more sensitive to mental perception, not to mention the "Him" who may be hiding in the dark, overlooking everything.

Lucian's current method of reconnaissance is very simple, that is, using the identity of [Lula] and his subtle [mind-reading] talent.

Because this talent originated from the dream world itself, even if it was noticed by other people with ulterior motives, it would not cause too much of a problem, and at most it would only draw a little attention to oneself.

"The emotions of these two waiters are relatively normal. Although they have warm smiles on their faces, the slightly gray color in their emotions indicates that they are actually a little tired. This is in line with the character setting, and they are probably not played by players."

"Hmm? The maid's mood color is a little abnormal. She seems to be more nervous than the other maids. The conspicuous red in her mood color seems to remind others that if there is any disturbance, she will suddenly attack... She looks like a 'player'! She might even be the player I met at the party last night."

Lucian was holding the hand of Janos. He pretended to look around curiously, but he was actually using his talent of [Mind Reading] to observe other people's emotional fluctuations.

With the help of the [Mind Reading] talent, Lucian felt like a person conducting reconnaissance at night with an infrared detector, and could easily find the presence of some suspected players.

Although misjudgments or omissions may occur, this trick is surprisingly useful when it comes to large-scale "literacy campaigns".

Less than half an hour after getting out of the carriage, Lucian found three servants in the Mondok family mansion who were suspected to be players during this large-scale scan.

However, because it was just a quick glance, Lucian did not have the conditions to observe them deeply and read some more secret and useful information from their hearts.

Of course, another reason for this is that Lucian did not think that these outermost servants would be the core figures among the Chaos Goblins.

After all, if they want to transform the entire Mondok family mansion into their "base", it is not something that a few male waiters and maids in charge of reception can handle.

At least one has to be a butler to be able to "hide the truth". In Lucian's opinion, Marquis Mondok himself is the biggest suspect.

So after entering the banquet hall, Lucian immediately turned his attention to the host of the banquet, Marquis Mondok.

After a polite greeting, Lucian couldn't wait to check the mood of Marquis Mondok.

"The surface is a deep blue. He seems to be worried about something, or he has the calmness of a superior. At the same time, the amplitude of this blue rhythm is not large. It can be seen that he is very rational at this moment..." Lucian quickly observed the emotional fluctuations of Marquis Mondok, but soon he couldn't help but frowned.

Marquis Mondok’s mood swings were so normal that even Lucian could find the corresponding parts of his mood swings from the time and intervals between his conversations with others.

This also means that Marquis Mondok is most likely a "wild" character and is not controlled by a player!
Lucian's expression was calm, and he didn't seem too surprised.

He then turned his attention to the Marchioness standing beside him.

"The Marquise seems a little excited. Her emotional color is mainly a very beautiful bright yellow, and even has a flame-like feeling... Well, combined with the necklace she is wearing, she should want to show off to other noble ladies, right?"

Lucian lowered his head, trying to hide his confusion.

Because after his careful observation, it seems that the Marquise is not played by a player, but like the Marquis of Mondok, is a wild identity.

But the problem is, this is the enemy’s lair!
This is like the feeling that all the people found in the bandit’s stronghold are good citizens. The fact that there is no problem at all is itself the biggest problem!

Lucian's face turned a little ugly, and he began to check the male and female butlers who were responsible for entertaining other guests with some disbelief.

“None of them seem to be players…” Lucian’s forehead was slightly sweaty. He gritted his teeth and began to check on some other maids of higher status or stewards and foremen.

"Normal." "Normal."

"normal……"

The more he checked, the heavier his mood became, because after checking more than a dozen people, he suddenly discovered that none of these people were suspected players!
Everything was so normal! So normal that it seemed as if the player didn't even exist in the Mondok family.

Lucian continued to "call out names" in a state of disbelief. He observed them in order of their status within the Mondok family mansion from high to low, until finally he found traces of some "players" on a maid who had a slightly higher status.

But the status of this maid in the Mondok family is not really high. At most, she is just a head maid. To be honest, her status is not as good as some personal maids who serve the core figures of the family.

How could such a small figure secretly control the entire Mondok family?

Is there something wrong with the [Mind Reading] talent?
Lucian was puzzled. He looked at the members of the Mondok family and felt that each of them was a wolf in human skin.

"Calm down, I have to calm down..." Lucian pinched himself quietly with his nails, then looked around again with a smile on his face.

He let go of Janos' hand and ran towards where a group of "children" were gathered.

Since nothing can be revealed just by looking at emotions, he needs to find other targets for observation and try to "read their minds" at a deeper level. Without considering the use of mental assistance, observing a group of people of his own age is naturally easier than observing adults.

And his target, of course, was Daya, the youngest daughter of Marquis Mondok.

“Sister Daya!” Lucian trotted and quickly plunged into the group of children.

"Lula, you're here at the right time. We were just about to go see Hermann." Daya was a sweet-looking blonde girl. When she saw Lucian coming, she greeted him with a smile. Her eyes were clear and her expression was a pleasant green.

It can be seen that Daya is in a very good mood at this time.

“Hermann?” Lucian showed a confused expression. He had done his homework before and knew about the important and minor figures in the Mondok family, but Hermann was not among them.

"This is Daya's younger brother. I heard from my father that this banquet is actually to celebrate Hermann's birthday..." a boy interrupted in a low voice.

"Well, but because my brother is not in good health, this party is not very public..." Daya explained in a low voice.

"It looks like a premature baby..." Lucian quickly understood Hermann's identity from the children.

"By the way, Hermann must still be sleeping now. When you go in, just watch from a distance and don't talk!" Daya acted like a little adult at this time, and there was a serious look in her eyes when she looked at the other children.

Lucian took this opportunity to look Daya in the eye. With his ability to read minds activated, he quickly entered Daya's inner world and saw the girl lying in front of a cradle, someone rubbing her head and reminding her of some precautions.

“Is this what Daya is thinking? She seems to be just a player, and her inner thoughts are just like those of her identity…” Lucian sighed helplessly in his heart, but at this moment he was surrounded by a group of children, tiptoeing towards the baby room.

Soon, Lucian saw Hermann.

This is a baby who is sleeping soundly at this moment. The baby's face is wrinkled and the flesh on his body is shaped like several small tires.

"Hey, it's so ugly..." A child made a slightly contemptuous sound, but was quickly driven away by Daya like a hen protecting her chicks.

"My brother is the cutest!" Daya lowered her voice deliberately, but there was a hint of unquestionableness in her tone.

"Okay, Daya, can you invite your friends to the room to play? Your brother can't get some fresh air yet..." A beautiful woman said weakly while sitting on the bed in the corner of the room.

“Hmm?” Lucian then noticed the resting woman. He narrowed his eyes slightly and then used his mind-reading talent.

everything is normal.

Lucian frowned slightly, but at this time he was urged by Daya and had to leave the baby room.

squeak-

The door of the room was closed by a personal maid.

Suddenly, the maid's body stiffened, and then her movements returned to normal, but her eyes had lost their eyeballs. The boundary between black and white became blurred at this moment, and her pupils turned completely gray, representing chaos.

Not only her, but also the young duchess who had just given birth and a wet nurse who was on standby, all had their eyes turned completely gray.

The only thing that remained unchanged was the baby. He calmly opened his eyes and slightly opened his mouth. Although his vocal cords, which were not yet fully developed, could not produce effective syllables at this time, his buzzing lips were shouting out a word in an unknown and special language.

wizard.

The next moment, the eyes of the people in the room changed from gray to normal again. They were busy with their own things, as if nothing had happened just now.

"Ask the maid to come in and change Hermann's quilt."

"Yes, ma'am." The maid bowed respectfully, and soon a maid in charge of handling chores was called in.

If Lucian was still here, he would be able to recognize that this maid was exactly one of the maids he had noticed before, who was suspected to be a player.

"Madam." The maid bowed respectfully.

But the next moment, a horrifying grey airflow directly enveloped her. Under the erosion of this airflow, the maid's eyes gradually turned grey, and a vague outline vaguely emerged on the surface of her body. It struggled and roared, but could not make any sound.

Suddenly, with a slight bang, the player's body exploded completely, turning into dots of golden ink that flew into the baby's mouth.

chirp chirp...

Baby Hermann smacked his lips with an expression of great satisfaction, and his originally frowned brows suddenly relaxed at this moment.
