Chapter 433 Application Task
In the morning, Flynn rang Ken Roswell's office, and after getting permission, he pushed the door and walked in.
"Elder Sox, what's the matter?"
Ken Rothwell, who was sitting behind the desk, raised his head and asked with some doubts when he saw that it was Flynn who entered.
"Is there anything I've been working on lately?"
Flynn asked.
"Of course there are missions, but you are currently learning advanced supernatural methods. If you perform the mission, it will definitely slow down your learning progress."
Ken Roswell hesitated.
The escape of many cultists and evil mystics, coupled with the various cult forces that have become imminent due to the death of Elder Innumark, the workload of the Security Bureau has increased dramatically in recent times.
If it weren't for worrying about affecting Flynn's study progress, he would have assigned the task to Flynn long ago.
"Everyone in the Security Bureau is busy, but I am the only one who is free. I am really embarrassed, so I came here to ask for a task."
Flynn said.
"Since you said so, I will arrange one for you. If the elder asks you, don't say that I forced it on you."
Ken Roswell said with a smile.
"Naturally not, is there any suitable task for me?"
Flynn asked with a smile.
"let me see."
Ken Rothwell picked up a stack of documents on the table and flipped through them. After a while, he stopped flipping and said to Flynn.
"A day ago, Humphrey McPherson, director of the Luma City Security Bureau, investigated the disappearance outside the city, but he disappeared during the investigation."
"You go to Luma City to search and rescue Humphrey McPherson, and investigate the truth of this matter by the way."
While speaking, Ken Rothwell handed a document to Flynn.
Ferring reached out to take it, and looked through it carefully.
According to the document, a few days ago, several noble children came across an abandoned castle while hunting.
It was raining at that time, so I entered the castle to avoid the rain.
But he didn't want to, and disappeared after entering.
The families of these noble children commissioned detectives to search, and found the castle through the horseshoe prints.
But after entering and investigating the castle, it also disappeared.
Aware that a mysterious incident might be involved, the family of the noble children notified the Security Bureau.
The Security Bureau sent two mystics to investigate, but unexpectedly, these two mystics also disappeared in the castle.
After the disappearance of two security bureau mystics, the security bureau raised the danger level of this mission, and the director Humphrey McPherson personally led a team to participate in the investigation.
But he didn't want to be the chief Humphrey McPherson, who was a high-ring mystic, also disappeared after entering this ancient castle.
The director disappeared, and the Luma City Security Bureau immediately reported the matter to the General Administration.
"It doesn't look like it was done by cultists, but it seems to be done by weirdness. Could it be that there is a very powerful weirdness hidden in this ancient castle?"
After reading the relevant records, Flynn guessed.
"This requires you to investigate."
Ken Roswell said.
"Okay, leave this task to me."
Flynn nodded.
It can make a mystic with high-level strength disappear, this weird strength is definitely not weak.
Whether it is a cultist or a weird one, both can provide him with mysterious points, there is no difference between the two, so he is quite satisfied with this task.
With the help of the door of space, Felin arrived in Luma City.
Besides the room with the door of space set up by the Luma City Security Bureau, there are already people waiting anxiously. After all, the director is missing, and the security bureau has already panicked.
As soon as Flynn walked out of the room, several people greeted him immediately.
The leaders were a middle-aged woman and a middle-aged man. Seeing Fei Lin, the middle-aged woman and middle-aged man immediately recognized them, and greeted Fei Lin with several mystics who followed them.
"Elder Sox."
They are the captains of the Luma City Security Bureau, the highest-ranking people under the director.
As the chief of the security bureau with the highest combat power disappeared, the entire security bureau was in panic.
Seeing that the General Administration sent an elder, and it was rumored that he was the elder Sox who had strength beyond the general twelve rings, they breathed a sigh of relief.
"I already know the specific situation, let someone take me directly to that old castle."
Flynn looked at several people and said.
"Achille, I will take Elder Sox to that old castle, and you are in charge of the Security Bureau."
Middle-aged woman Mamy Nahum said to the middle-aged man.
"Okay, then I will be in the Security Bureau."
The middle-aged man, Achill Hazlitt, nodded and agreed without objecting.
Riding in a carriage, Flynn and Memie Nahum left the Security Bureau and headed out of the city.
A few hours later, the carriage stopped at the foot of a hill, and Flynn and Memie Nahum got out of the carriage.
For the next journey, the carriage could no longer move forward, but they were not far from their destination.
On the hillside, a building with a high wall can be vaguely seen, which is the old castle that caused the disappearance of a director of the Security Bureau.
"Let's go."
Let the coachman wait at the foot of the mountain, Flynn and Maimie Nahum walked up the hillside on a road that was not easy to walk.
Soon after, they arrived at the castle.
This is an old but not dilapidated castle, and the functions of the high walls, watchtowers and other buildings are well preserved.
The building materials used in the construction are of good quality, so even now, they are still well preserved.
"It should be a building from the principality period."
Feline looked at the castle and speculated.
Before becoming a mystic, he was an appraiser and knew quite a lot about the architectural styles of various periods.
So the period of the castle was immediately inferred from the architectural style.
"I have read the historical materials of Luma City. This old castle is indeed a building from the Principality period."
Maimie Nahum nodded.
"Smell enhancement."
Ferrin took out the enhanced gem from the panel, and used the olfactory enhancement of the enhanced gem.
The enhanced gemstone glowed with green light. Under this green light, Flynn's sense of smell was exaggeratedly enhanced, and he could smell various smells.
"A lot of people have indeed been to this castle recently."
With the help of his enhanced sense of smell, Flynn could smell the remnants of dozens of people.
Some of the smells are different from ordinary people, obviously left by extraordinary people.
Ferrin distinguishes all the smells and wants to try to find the weird ones.
After all, according to his speculation, the reason why many people disappeared in this castle should be because there is a powerful monster entrenched.
"Not really."
After a while, Flynn's expression turned unexpected.
He didn't smell a weird smell that was different from humans, as if there was no weirdness in it.
"The guess is wrong, there is not a powerful monster here? No, I am afraid that this monster can hide the smell!"
"It can make me, who is now comparable to a twelve-ring mystic who uses the extraordinary ability of smell, unable to detect the smell. This weird one is indeed very unusual."
Flynn looked at Maimie Nahum and said to Maimie Nahum.
"I'll go in and check, you wait for me outside the castle."
"Elder Sox, I want to go in and investigate with you."
Maimie Nahum looked around and asked.
She also guessed that there was a powerful monster entrenched in this castle, and now that they appeared outside the castle, they must have attracted the attention of this powerful monster.
If she is separated from Feilin, she is only the mystic of the Central Ring, and she is likely to be attacked by this weird one.
Compared to staying outside the castle alone, it would be safer to act with the elder Flynn.
"Also."
Guessing Maimie Nahum's worry, Flynn did not refuse, but nodded.
Compared to leaving Memie Nahum outside the castle, letting Memie Nahum follow her, the twelve-ring mystic, is indeed safer.
The gate of the ancient castle was opened, like the mouth of a giant beast.
Flynn walked into the castle through the open gate.
Maimie Nahum hurriedly followed, following Flynn step by step.

Chapter 434 Missing
Entering the old castle, Flynn followed the scent of the missing person, walked through the old castle, and finally came to a three-story house.
Entering this three-story house, Flynn stopped, and some Extraordinary people finally disappeared in this place.
He glanced around, to his surprise, he didn't see any signs of fighting.
This happens, most likely because Weird is far stronger than the Extraordinary who entered this house.
Searched in this house, but did not find the corpses of those Beyonders, nor did they find Weird.
Leaving this house, Flynn followed the scent and went to the place where other Extraordinary people disappeared.
The smell finally disappeared in a house on the back side of the castle. After careful inspection of the house, no traces of fighting, corpses, or strangeness were found.
"Not quite right."
Felin couldn't help frowning slightly.
Among the Extraordinary scents he was tracking, there must be one belonging to Director McPherson.
Director McPherson, as a high-level mystic, should not be powerless to resist even if he encounters a strange attack with a strength reaching the 12th ring, and he will not even leave traces of a fight.
Unless this place is occupied by a monster whose strength has reached the extraordinary level, but this possibility should not be great.
Strangeness at the extraordinary level is extremely rare. Up to now, he has never encountered a strangeness that has reached the extraordinary level.
The danger perception of the card of the mind did not respond, and did not feel the hostility lurking in the dark.
As a double-twelve-ring mystic, his danger perception is extremely keen. With the increase of the mind card, his danger perception becomes even more acute.
If there is something weird peeping at them in the dark, he should be able to perceive it.
But he didn't have the slightest sense, as if this place was ordinary and there was no danger.
However, how could a high-ring mystic disappear silently in an ordinary place.
"We searched all the places in the castle."
Ferring made a decision to continue searching in the castle. This time they searched one place at a time, not missing every place, and searched all the places in the entire castle.
After more than an hour, Flynn stopped searching.
"Elder Sox, have you found anything?"
Seeing Flynn stop, Memie Nahum asked Flynn.
"I don't notice any weird smells."
Flynn shook his head and said.
"How come, the director and the others did disappear after entering this castle."
Maimie Nahum frowned.
"Could it be that you have already left?"
Thinking in his heart, Felin didn't notice any weird aura, nor did he sense any danger, as if the weird that was entrenched in the castle had already left the castle.
But he felt something was wrong in his heart, feeling that this might not be the truth.
After thinking for a while, he looked at Maimie Nahum and said aloud.
"Tell me in detail about the previous and subsequent disappearances, the more detailed the better."
"yes."
Maimie Nahum responded and began to speak.
"Several noble children disappeared four days ago. When they came back from hunting, it was raining, so they looked for a place to hide from the rain."
"After discovering that there was an ancient castle here, I came to this ancient castle, entered it to hide from the rain, and then disappeared."
"Several detectives disappeared three days ago. They were entrusted by several noble families to search for the whereabouts of the missing noble children and found this castle."
"It was discovered that this ancient castle was the last place where several noble children disappeared. They sent one of them back to report, while the others entered the ancient castle."
"When the people who went back to report came with people from the noble family, these detectives had disappeared."
"The two mystics who were in charge of the investigation disappeared two days ago. The noble family sensed that something was wrong and informed the Security Bureau of the situation. The Security Bureau sent these two mystics to investigate."
"As a result, the two mystics also mysteriously disappeared after entering the castle."
"Director McPherson disappeared a day ago. He learned that even the mystics were missing, and realized that there was a huge crisis in it. Director McPherson decided to bring people to investigate in person."
"He brought several people into this ancient castle, and as a result, even Director McPherson disappeared in this ancient castle."
After listening to Maimie Nahum's narration, Flynn vaguely felt that he had grasped something, but he didn't feel that he had grasped it.
After all, the secret art he learned is not a great detective, and he is not good at reasoning and finding the truth behind it.
"For this kind of thing, you should find a professional."
Flynn took out the elder's coat of arms and sent a contact to Ken Roswell. The contact was connected shortly after, and Ken Roswell appeared on a huge virtual screen.
"Elder Suokes, how is the situation on your side?"
Ken Roswell asked.
"I have already arrived at this ancient castle, but after searching, I didn't find anything weird, not even a weird smell."
Flynn said.
"It seems that this matter is not simple."
Ken Roswell pondered, then asked.
"Why did you contact me?"
I feel that there are some hidden clues that I have not been able to detect, so I want you to find a mystic master who is a great detective in the secret art to help analyze it. "
Flynn said.
Professional things are left to professional people, so he plans to find a mystic who is a great detective in the secret art to help analyze.
"Okay, wait a minute."
Ken Rothwell complied, and soon after, a man in a black windbreaker was called. This man was named Roy Morse, and he was one of the chief detectives who practiced the secret art to reach Central. division.
Flynn repeated what Maimie Nahum said just now, and then asked Roy Morse to help analyze it, looking for hidden clues and truths.
Roy Morse took out a notebook, recorded everything that Flynn said, and then wrote and drew in the notebook. After a while, he said.
"Elder Suokes, according to your description, there is a law in this disappearance, and that is the law of time."
"The laws of time... What do you think?"
Flynn asked Roy Morse on the screen.
"The interval between these four disappearances is one day, and there are no two consecutive incidents within one day."
"After the disappearance occurred on a certain day, even if someone entered the castle again, the disappearance did not occur again."
"If there is a monster hidden in the castle, then the hunting rule of this monster should be once a day."
Roy Morse said.
"Only hunt once a day..."
Ferring thought, as Roy Morse said, the frequency of disappearances is once a day, no more and no less, and there is indeed a rule of hunting once a day.
"That is to say, that weird one should have a hunt today?"
"According to my speculation, it should be like this. Just wait in the castle, and the weird one should automatically appear."
Roy Morse nodded.
"Very useful clue, thank you."
Flynn said thanks.
Sure enough, it is most appropriate to find a professional person for professional problems. For problems that I have not analyzed, the other party has found the key after a little analysis.
Ending the contact, Flynn no longer tried to find the weirdness, but found a spacious place with all surroundings, and rested in this spacious place with Maimie Nahum.
The surroundings here are spacious, even if something strange appears, it can be found immediately, and it can avoid being attacked by surprise.
Time was spent waiting, and before I knew it, it was five o'clock in the afternoon.
This time is the afternoon off work time, both Flynn and Maimie Nahum are a little hungry.
But neither of them brought dry food, after all, they didn't consider staying in this castle for so long.
But if you leave now, all previous efforts will be wasted, so I have to endure and continue to wait.
Hum!
Suddenly, a sudden change occurred.
The entire ancient castle has ripples like water waves, and it seems to have become a mirage, giving people a sense of no entity.
The next moment, Flynn and Memie Nahum who were in the castle disappeared into the castle.
With the disappearance of the two, the ripples from the castle disappeared, and the castle returned to its former appearance again.
The ripples just now seemed to have never appeared, but Flynn and Amyriam disappeared without a trace.
