Chapter 1808 The Mystery of Backtracking
After leaving the teahouse, Dr. Gers successfully followed Mayfair because of the existence of the invisibility scroll... It has to be said that this invisibility scroll is indeed an artifact for tracking, and Mayfair did not find anything along the way. , walking quickly through the village.
Soon, Mayfair came to a house guarded by guards.
This is the place where the candidates for the sacrifice need to stay before the celebration begins - that is where Jolina, who temporarily replaced Melfi as the sacrifice, bathes and dresses up... and the elderly ladies in the village all over the city. Be responsible and prohibit any male approach.
After Mayfair quietly knocked out an old nun, he put on her clothes, lowered his head and quickly blended into the room, becoming one of the nuns grooming the sacrifice candidate.
Dr. Gers has been standing by, watching coldly.
If he guessed correctly, before returning this time, Mayfair should have sneaked in here after disappearing from the teahouse, and planned to switch himself and Jolina - when Dr. Gers died, except for Jolina , seeing Mayfair on the ground wearing sacrificial clothing is the best proof.
And this time, Mayfair sneaked into the house under his surveillance, which is the best evidence... So, is the murderer already here at this time?
Last time, the murderer may have discovered that Mayfair wanted to switch Jolina, so he secretly operated, knocking Mayfair unconscious, etc., to ensure that the last time he confessed his love at the celebration was still Jolina, not Mayfair, he guessed?
"Come on, the guy who killed me, I will definitely grab your fox tail this time..."
But what Dr. Gers didn't expect at this time was that after Mayfair pretended to be an old nanny and stayed in the house for a while, he quietly left here...and left the village soon after.
At this time, the sky has not darkened yet, and there is still a short period of time before the evening celebration begins.
"What's going on...where is she going?"
Dr. Gers found that things were far from what he thought, so he had no choice but to continue to follow... At this time, he discovered that Mayfair planned to go to the temple on the mountain!
……
……
Going to the temple was not the path of a trialist, but the mainland... Only then did Dr. Gers discover that Mayfair was extremely fast - he almost couldn't catch up with him.
Until Mayfair officially stepped onto the gate of the temple on the mountain, Dr. Gers was already breathing heavily - and to his surprise, when Mayfair stood at the gate of the temple, the guards guarding the door saw him. She didn't stop him.
Not only did he not stop him, he even respectfully shouted: Vice Captain.
At this time, seeing Mayfair calmly walk directly into the temple, Dr. Gers's brain was instantly confused... If Mayfair is the vice-captain, wouldn't it be the first time for him to directly enter the temple? The one you encountered when you were killed by [Mr. Valli]?
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Dr. Gers's mind. He looked back at the darkening sky, shuddered, quickly bypassed the door of the temple, and headed towards the back of the temple.
He soon came to this place... Dr. Gers discovered that during so many retracements, he had never been there personally.
But he knew what would happen here - he learned this from Boss Luo.
Captain Malik will be here to quietly kill a temple guard in order to support the monster goddess in the inner hall of the temple...
……
……
ah--!
After a muffled scream, the temple guard was seen dead at the hands of Captain Malik - he dragged the dead guard away, then quickly passed through the back door of the temple and walked in.
Dr. Gers was standing here openly at this time. Because of the invisibility scroll, he could see everything clearly - this was indeed no different from the information provided by Luo Qiu.
But that time, Luo Qiu and Mayfair should have seen it while hiding behind the totem pole - but this time [today], there should be no talent behind the totem pole.
Because they did not take the trial path this time [Today].
"So, Captain Malik put on the black armor after killing the guards, and went down the mountain as an envoy to supervise the progress of the celebration..." Dr. Gers muttered at this time: "It seems like this , but that doesn’t mean anything..."
The doctor was shocked when he saw a figure quietly walking out of the totem pole.
Her face was pale, angry and filled with hatred... She even trembled because of fear.
"Mayfair...also Mayfair?" Dr. Gers stared at this scene in confusion until Mayfair, who walked out from behind the totem pole, hesitated and finally chose to open the back door of the temple. Entering, Dr. Gers still could not recover from the shock.
"What's going on? There is also a Mayfair here...are there two Mayfairs, existing at the same time?" Dr. Gers was startled, and without thinking, he caught up with the Mayfair who had glimpsed Captain Malik's murder. Phil left.
He didn't have to hide himself deliberately, because of the power of the scroll... Dr. Gers easily followed Mayfair at this time - until he was in front of the door of the inner temple.
Dr. Gers [Today] saw with his own eyes how Captain Malik was scolded and even kicked out of the inner hall after sending the dead guard into the inner hall, and was hit against the wall. What happened next? I found Mayfair hiding on the door and got a glimpse of Mayfair this time.
As expected, Captain Malik did not expose Mayfair who was hiding here, and even motioned for her to leave with him.
They arrived at the baptismal room in silence... but they didn't know that there was an invisible figure following them silently along the way.
……
Inside the baptismal chamber.
"I heard that you escaped privately earlier today." Captain Malik frowned and suddenly said: "Since you have escaped, why are you coming back?"
"I'm back, isn't it just what you want?" Mayfair sneered at this time: "Otherwise, where will you go to find a living sacrifice and send it to the gods... and send it to the monster? A living sacrifice? ”
Captain Malik drew out his sword at this time and shot directly at Mayfair. Then Mayfair was defeated and was knocked unconscious by Captain Malik. Then he was taken into his room and trapped on the stone bed.
Dr. Gers has been in this room all the time... He watched Captain Malik looking absently at the coffin made of luminous stone in the corner. He wanted to open the coffin several times to take a look, but he still endured it. .
Until Captain Malik stood up and left the room again - Dr. Gers speculated that it might be time, so Captain Malik was preparing to transform into a divine messenger and appear at the celebration.
The door had been locked and it seemed impossible to open it from the inside... After Dr. Gers tried several times, he temporarily gave up the idea of opening the door.
He came to the stone bed, looked at the unconscious Mayfair, and pondered in silence - but he still couldn't sort out his thoughts at this time.
This made Dr. Gers a little irritable... He paced irritably in the room, and unknowingly, he came to the coffin made of luminous stone.
He didn't know what was so special about this standing luminous stone coffin that could make Captain Malik so fascinated by it, so he couldn't help but reach out to open it.
Click——!
The sound of a door lock opening.
Dr. Gers was subconsciously startled, but thinking that he was still invisible at this time, he calmed down subconsciously - but soon, Dr. Gers lost his calm.
Who did he see the doorman come in?
He actually saw the captain of his servant team... Luo Qiu!
This guy really opened the door with a key and came in... wasn't he lying?
……
……
When Boss Luo opened the door of Captain Malik's room with the key and walked in, Dr. Gers subconsciously shivered - as to why Luo Qiu appeared here, Dr. Gers seemed to have a thousand thoughts in his heart. Like a question mark.
But when he thought that the other party couldn't see his relationship at this time, Dr. Gers felt bad in his heart... He narrowed his eyes, moved himself quietly, and raised the middle finger of his left hand to Boss Luo, his face filled with anger. With a sneer, he walked around behind Boss Luo who entered the room.
——I didn’t expect it! I'm right behind you!
——You lied to me once...twice. How much interest should I pay?
——You guessed it right, I can really backstab people!
No...this guy has a sacred suit on him!
Dr. Gers couldn't help but stop when he was about to launch the dagger... He was so desperate. The opportunity for a backstab was right in front of him?
"By the way, Mr. Gers, did you find anything?"
At this moment, Boss Luo said coldly.
Dr. Gers was stunned at first, and then exclaimed: "Can you see me?!"
"Yes, I saw you when I came in." Boss Luo turned around and smiled slightly.
"How can you see me! I'm not invisible?!"
"You're talking about the invisibility scroll, right?" Boss Luo said casually: "It's time-sensitive... you don't know?"
What the hell -!
It must have been when I was thinking irritably just now, but unknowingly... I didn't pay attention, thinking that the invisibility effect was still there, so... backstab!
The doctor had a rather stiff smile on his face at this time. After swallowing, he picked up his dagger with his fingers, "If I say that I am actually joking with you... you believe it."< br>
"Mr. Gers seems to be in good spirits." Boss Luo smiled and said, as if he didn't care about what happened. "By the way, the doctor has made any new discoveries all the way here."
Dr. Gers glanced at Boss Luo in surprise, then calmed down, "Yes, I found two Mayfairs. The one I followed at the teahouse went all the way up the mountain and then entered the temple... She is indeed from the temple. Vice-captain, I saw with my own eyes that the guard guarding the door saluted her respectfully. There is no mistake. As for the one lying on the bed now... To be honest, I can't explain it, but one thing is for sure. Here, Now, there are indeed two different Mayfairs! This explanation makes no sense. When we started this [today], the Mayfair who was rescued in the woods was the one I had been following up the mountain... However, , judging from the situation when we first walked the path of trialists, the Mayfair at that time should be the one I found at the back door of the temple this time... unless..."< br>
"Mr. Gers seems to have thought of something." Boss Luo smiled slightly.
Dr. Gers suddenly raised his head, "Unless there are indeed two Mayfairs... there are two Mayfairs that can go back in time! We are actually constantly jumping between these two Mayfairs that can go back in time! No, no, no, no, no... This explanation doesn't make sense. If we are jumping back and forth between two different Mayfairs, they can't appear at the same time... I must have overlooked something. What..."
At this time, Boss Luo walked to the side of the stone bed, looked at the sleeping elf girl, and suddenly said: "Mr. Gers, do you still remember what you found when you first walked the trial road?"
"Discover...what did we discover?" Dr. Gers frowned and said subconsciously: "That's the question in the third level - no! It's the traces left by Geralt! I understand!"
Dr. Gers slapped his head at this moment and hurriedly walked forward, "The road of trial! This road may allow Mayfair, who escaped as a sacrifice in the first place, to come to the second one. In the time of Mayfair, the deputy captain of the Temple Guard! When we take the trial road for the first time, we will go back to the time of the second deputy captain Mayfair. Next, we will go back and jump directly to the second one. Vice-captain Mayfair is looking back in time, but this time the first Mayfair will definitely take the road of trials to the second time... No, it's still wrong. Logically speaking, we don't have the third time. If she takes the path of trials, then she should not appear in the second Mayfair's time rewind, but in the world of the original first Mayfair's time regress. If this is the case, then she will not take the trial. The road... In other words, last [today], Mayfair should not have discovered that Captain Malik killed his companions, but..."
"But what?"
"But we still went back." Dr. Gers thought for a while and said: "We have returned to the original starting point, but it has been changed to the time of the second vice-captain Mayfair... From this point of view, we are actually two people. The assumption of jumping back and forth between different Mayfairs should be correct... But last time [today], the first Mayfair did not enter the temple... did not enter the temple, did not enter the temple... nothing After entering the temple, the first Mayfair will not die in the hands of [Mr. Vali]. However..."
"And then she died anyway, right."
"Yes, she is still dead...but who killed her and who was the murderer?"
"The murderer is the second Mayfair." Boss Luo said slowly at this time: "After cutting off your head, Mr. Gers, killing Mayfair, who was wearing sacrificial clothes, was the second act. Vice Captain Mayfair ”
"How do you know?" Dr. Gers asked subconsciously.
Boss Luo blinked, "Because I saw it with my own eyes."
"Oh...that's it." Dr. Gers nodded, and then said angrily: "You just watch me being looked down upon?!"
Can it be done? !
