Chapter 243: Monsters, Please Leave Now
"The person who got the snake talisman is Kaito Kidd..."
After Xiaoyu's explanation, Dad finally understood the whole story.
"The talisman looks the same as a stone. No one would be interested in a stone. This shows that he knows that the talisman has magic power."
A wise light flashed in Dad's eyes.
"We don't know what Kaito Kidd wants to do by taking the talisman. Even if he is not a bad person, how many people can guarantee that their eyes will not be lost after getting powerful power?"
He looked at Xiaoyu who was hesitant to speak.
Xiaoyu was speechless. She really wanted to say that Kaito Kidd was a good person, but Dad saw through her mind.
"And we don't know what kind of magic the snake talisman has. If we don't get the talisman back as soon as possible, it's hard to imagine what will happen."
"Ouch!"
As he spoke, Dad suddenly flicked a finger on Chen Long's forehead.
"As for you, Chen Long, during the entire process of this mission, not only did you accomplish nothing, but you were also deceived by that black-hearted curator to help him guard a fake, and your performance was not as good as your niece!"
"One more thing, Dad is now going to use magic to divine the location of the Phantom Thief Kidd. It's too early to give up the snake spell now."
Dad said so.
"The Black Hand Gang has a spell locator. If we are a step slower, they will find the Phantom Thief first."
Chen Long and Xiaoyu looked at each other, watching Dad slowly walk into his laboratory, or...alchemy house?
"One more thing, Chen Long, Dad needs ewe's wool, gecko's tail, monkey's tears, octopus's tentacles..."
Blah blah said a lot of weird things.
"Okay, Dad, I'll get it right away."
Chen Long replied helplessly.
"One more thing, Xiaoyu, go and pour Dad a cup of hot tea."
After a while, Dad used all the materials to prepare a potion with a strange color.
Chen Long and Xiaoyu watched the old man perform from a distance, not daring to disturb him.
"Go away, demons and ghosts, go away, demons and ghosts, go away..."
The old man held a pufferfish in one hand and a dried lizard in the other, chanting something.
Soon, the spell took effect, and the pufferfish and dried lizard each shot out a light blue light, which was injected into the potion.
Immediately afterwards, a cloud of smoke rose from the potion, forming a circle, like a mirror.
Chen Long and Xiaoyu had seen this kind of magic before, and knew that the image of Kaito Kidd and the other party's mark on the map would appear on it.
"But why is it blank?"
After waiting for a while, the old man stopped chanting the spell, and heard Xiaoyu asked in surprise.
Yes, the mirror formed by the smoke was blank, and nothing appeared.
The spell failed!
The old man frowned tightly.
He chanted the spell again, but the result remained the same.
How is this possible?
"If someone didn't deliberately interfere with magic, then there was something wrong with the preparation of the potion..."
Dad pondered. He had prepared this kind of divination potion too many times, and it was impossible to make a mistake.
He tried to track the other party back through magic, but still got nothing, as if his magic didn't work at all.
With Dad's magic attainments, the number of people in the world who can deceive him can be counted on one hand.
And there is only one person who has a grudge against Dad and can even be called a lifelong enemy!
"Daolong, is it you?"
But as soon as this thought came up, Dad shook his head.
The black air used by Daolong and Dad's righteousness are two kinds of magic that are incompatible with each other. If Daolong did it, the divination mirror constructed by Dad with air magic would be contaminated, and it would not be just a blank state.
And he knew Daolong's strength very well, and he couldn't destroy Dad's magic silently.
But who else would do such a thing besides Daolong?
What is the other party's purpose? Cover up the identity of Kaito Kidd? Or for the spell?
It is also possible that Kaito Kidd himself is a powerful wizard, and of course he will not be spied on casually.
Dad can't be sure, but what he can be sure of is that the opponent's magic power is very strong, at least not worse than his own.
No, the opponent must be stronger than himself, otherwise Dad can't feel anything.
Such a powerful wizard is not an existence that can be easily offended.
"Chen Long, don't worry about the snake spell for now, get ready, and find the next spell tomorrow!"
Dad said without question.
On the other side, the secret building of the Black Hand Gang headquarters.
In the office that is arranged like a hall, Afen, Zhou, Lasu and Tru lowered their heads to report to a man in a green suit.
This man is called Walon, the boss of the Black Hand Gang.
"Walon, your men are all trash!"
Before Walon opened his mouth, a cold voice scolded Afen and others.
There were only five people in the field, so where did the voice come from?
I saw Valon trying to make himself look elegant and said to a statue on the wall: "Holy Lord, now everyone knows that the talisman is with Kaito Kidd. If we waste time, Chen Long may have found him during this time."
"You can blame my men, but if you want the talisman, you can only rely on us."
Afen and others watched their boss talking to a statue, but they didn't show any surprise.
Because this statue is not an ordinary statue, it is... alive.
The eyes on the stone dragon head of the Holy Lord emit scarlet light. Thousands of years ago, he was still a demon king who ruled a continent, and humans were just food that he could kill and take.
But when I think of now, a mere white pig dares to be arrogant in front of him and bargain with it.
The Holy Lord felt a great humiliation.
But now it is sealed in the statue and can't go anywhere. Only by collecting the twelve talismans can the Holy Lord escape.
It must cooperate with Valon.
"Valon, if you still want to get the Golden Rooster King's treasure, you must bring the talisman to me, otherwise you will get nothing!"
The Holy Lord knew that Valon was right, but he still reminded him who was really in the dominant position.
"Where is the talisman locator? Let's find the guy who stole my talisman."
Hearing this, Afen quickly took out the talisman locator.
The use of the talisman locator requires the Holy Lord to determine the location of the target on the map, and then Afen and others will search for it on the spot.
I saw a red light shot out of the Holy Lord's eyes, and the dragon head on the talisman locator also shot out a red light at the same time.
The two red lights intertwined in the air.
Usually at this time, a map with the location of the talisman marked will appear in the Holy Lord's eyes.
But...
"What? This is impossible?"
Suddenly, the Holy Lord roared in disgrace.
It didn't see anything!
