Chapter 72 Tracking

The puppet's face was painted with red and yellow oil paint to look like a common clown, and the corners of his mouth were raised high on both sides, bringing out a very funny smile.

As its mouth widened, revealing its dark and deep mouth, Klein, who was staring at it, was covered in hairs standing upright, and a strong and unreasonable fear suddenly appeared in his heart.

What he saw was dim, as if he was observing the world through a thick brown glass.

Klein's thoughts were fast and slow. He instinctively wanted to ask for help, but his neck seemed to be firmly tied by a rope, and he couldn't make any sound. The word could only stay in his mind.

At this moment, Dunn, who noticed the sudden stagnation of his arms bending, gave him a heavy shove.

The brown glass in front of Klein shattered immediately, and the word "help" in his throat also spit out, echoing in the carriage with a slightly sharp panic.

"It's stronger." Klein stated in a positive tone.

Staying with a strange sealed artifact like "2-049", if you are careless, you will fall into a terrible crisis. No, you can't prevent it at all, you can only rely on other methods to avoid it!

"This is normal." Al Hasson nodded calmly.

Luo Luota chuckled lightly:

"It seems to like you? Don't worry, it's a relatively less dangerous one of the Level 2 Sealed Artifacts."

In the natural lazy voice, the joint was so clear that it seemed to correspond to the human puppet one by one and stood up, and staggered toward his left side.

Its movements are full of difficulty, like a steam machine that has been rusted and forgotten to be lubricated.

Robot dance... Klein suddenly flashed through these few Chinese characters, and had a new guess as to the reason for the danger of "2-049":

Will it assimilate the creatures it controls?

If I hadn't been woken up in time, I would have become an ordinary human-shaped puppet, a real-life Barbie doll?

When Klein was full of thoughts, Al Hasson was pushed awake by Dunn, and while bending and extending his arms, he pointed in the direction where the puppet was moving slowly, and said to Leonard who was driving:

"Go there!"

Leonard couldn't let the carriage pass through the building, so he had to go around half a circle. During this process, "2-049" constantly adjusted the direction of progress, and tenaciously acted as "pointing to the Antigonus family needle".

Seeing this scene, Klein, who was constantly "moving" his arm, wanted to laugh while he was tense:

"I heard that '2-049' was made by the Antigonus family... So is it a sign of loyalty, or is it a model of idiots?"

Next, in the sound of Al Hasson's voice from time to time, Leonard drove the carriage across the street, heading straight for a certain direction.

And every time the weird puppet "2-049" was about to reach the edge of the carriage, it would be captured by Al Hasson and start over.

Whenever this happens, its mouth will open wider, and two people will be controlled at the same time.

The tension in Klein's heart gradually eased, and he actually felt that the Sealed Artifact "2-049" was not so scary anymore, as long as there were more than three people at the scene, as long as he knew how to maintain bending and stretching exercises, and as long as he mastered the skills to wake up his companions in time, "2-049 "It's just a somewhat special puppet.

The carriage galloped quickly and quickly entered the dock area, all the way to the place where the warehouses gathered.

After going around a few times and confirming that "2-049" wanted to go to the gray-white warehouse on the innermost side, Al Hasson looked serious, grabbed it carefully, and stuffed the weird puppet back into the iron-black box. .

dong dong dong!

With the continuous and violent knocking sound, with the help of Borgia and Lorota, Al Hasson woke up again and again, and with difficulty he pressed the mechanical switch, and then poured in his spirituality, driving the iron box on the iron box. Stars and red moon symbols.

The invisible seal reproduces,

Al Hasson let out a long sigh.

"Get out of the car." Dunn Smith's deep and mellow voice sounded, "Leonard, just tie the horse here."

Six gentlemen and ladies in trench coats, formal suits, or shirts left the carriage and walked towards the innermost warehouse. As they walked, they flexed and stretched their arms almost uniformly.

This makes the slightly frozen tension a bit comical and absurd.

The Nighthawks embarrass the dance group... Klein can only ease this feeling by complaining.

But it's not enough if you don't do this, because according to his observation, the impact of "2-049" is first reflected on the upper body. If you want to detect it in time and avoid slipping into a more dangerous situation, you can only stretch your arms, turn your neck, and shake your body. A few options, and the latter two will make you look like a punk.

As for actions such as blinking and brow knocking, they are either too easy to ignore or too large, which is also not a good choice.

A dance troupe is always better than Causeway Bay Young Dangerous Boys... Klein sighed, and followed Captain Dunn and the others in resignation.

And the closer he got to the warehouse door, the more uneasy and worried he felt in his heart.

Because no one knows what kind of changes that notebook will bring to Riel Bieber!

If there was a big problem, Klein wouldn't dare to hope to be able to cross again.

And in the usual way of cutting meat and cooking, he found that he would still be injured and bleed, and the healing speed of the wounds also belonged to the normal category.

While walking, Dunn suddenly pressed his free hand down, causing everyone to stop about ten meters in front of the warehouse gate.

"Klein, you have a divination to see if there is danger in it. It would be better if you can roughly figure out the degree of danger." Dunn turned to Klein.

His gray eyes were still dark, and he couldn't see the slightest fear.

Klein nodded invisibly, stopped bending and stretching, stretched his right hand to the left cuff, and untied the silver chain with the citrine pendant inside.

Because his own arm was moving, when there was a sluggishness in the middle, Dunn discovered it in time and pushed him to wake up.

Klein held the silver chain in his left hand, letting the citrine fall naturally, and at the same time controlled his right hand, only doing small flexion and extension.

When the citrine was stable, he half closed his eyes, outlined the ball of light, entered a state of meditation, and said quietly:

"There is danger in the warehouse."

"There is danger in the warehouse."

...

After seven times, he opened his eyes and saw the citrine pendant slowly turning in circles, making a clockwise movement.

It turned faster and faster, and in the end it felt like it was pulling Klein's left hand.

"There is danger, it is very dangerous." Klein said truthfully.

——Clockwise is the affirmation of the silent words, and counterclockwise is the negation.

For other Beyonders, even a "secret peeping person", using the "spiritual pendulum method" can at most detect whether there is danger, and it is impossible to obtain further information on the level of danger.

But when Klein found himself using the "pendulum method", the pendant would have a graded rotation speed, and they showed different degrees of answers.

This is inaccurate and very vague, but it also allows one to roughly distinguish the specific situation.

As expected of the "diver" potion... Klein is quite relieved.

Just when he was about to put away the citrine pendant, Leonard Mitchell, who was silent behind him, suddenly said:

"Let's fortune tell if there is any danger around."

"Yes, I'm worried that the Secret Society will not give up, and has been staring at Riel Bieber's house, and then following us over to make trouble at the critical moment." Dunn nodded in agreement.

Klein immediately took a breath and entered an ethereal and peaceful state again.

When the silver chain stabilized again, he silently said in his heart:

"There is danger around."

...

"There is danger around."

...

After repeating it over and over, Klein opened his eyes and looked at the silver chain.

In his dark brown eyes, the citrine pendant first moved counterclockwise with difficulty, then suddenly stopped and turned clockwise.

"There is danger around." Klein's heart tightened and he said cautiously.

And some people tried to interfere with divination, but in this invisible confrontation, they lost to themselves!

As soon as he finished speaking, a fist-sized orange fireball suddenly flew from a distance.

It smashed into the center of the crowd at an extremely fast speed.

Dunn Smith, who had drawn the long-barreled revolver long before Klein's divination, immediately raised his hand and pulled the trigger ahead of schedule.

boom!

Amidst the sound of gunfire, the fireball did not shake in the slightest, and continued to move forward according to the predetermined trajectory, as if to force everyone to disperse to avoid it.

Originally, Klein didn't care too much about tracking the troublemakers, because there were six extraordinary people here, and there were even Sequence 8 and Sequence 7 powerhouses. In such a small place as Tingen City, it was a configuration that could walk sideways.

But when the fireball hit, he suddenly woke up to a fact.

That fact is that for me and the others, the most dangerous enemy is not the stalker, not the troublemaker, or even Riel Bieber, who is in an unknown state in the warehouse, but the Sealed Artifact "2-049"!

Once you and the others are scattered, caught in the battle, and it is too late to wake up each other, you will become real puppets one by one!

When his thoughts flickered, Klein was pulled by Leonard and rolled out with him, avoiding the fireball.

It was too late to feel sorry for the clothes on his body, he saw that the Nighthawks were divided into two groups to avoid them, and they were quite orderly.

puff!

The orange fireball fell to the ground without stirring up any dust, as if nothing had happened.

phantom? As soon as Klein had this thought, he saw Al Hassen lift the iron black box and threw it to the side, at least ten meters away.

"Stay away from it! Watch it!" Al shouted.

Before he could finish shouting, Leonard and Borgia approached each other, guarding the box at least seven meters apart to prevent others from approaching.

Dunn and Luo Luota each held guns, and together with Al Hasson who drew out the silver rapier, they formed a semi-arc line, and quickly rushed to the position where the fireball was shot, taking into account the side area.

Seeing this scene, Klein, who did not have a cane, was relieved because he was doing flexion and extension exercises, and realized that he had overlooked an important issue just now.

That is, the influence of "2-049" has a limited range. As long as it is separated from it by a sufficient distance, there is no need to worry about danger!

Klein suddenly stood up, stuffed the citrine pendant into his pocket with one hand, and pulled the revolver from the gun pocket under his arm with the other.
