Chapter 501: unsolved puzzle


Joan paced back and forth in the bedroom, thinking about why the "Branch of Ilminsur" had such an abnormal warning signal. The fog in his mind gradually dissipated, and a logical conjecture followed.
The sound of splashing water came from next door, and Joan guessed that Clark hadn't slept, so he walked out of the bedroom to the door of the next room and knocked on the door.
Clark opened the door and put a wet towel on his neck—relative to his figure, it was only a handkerchief.
"Mr. Henil, haven't slept yet?"
"I just washed my face and was about to fall asleep, Brother Joan. You are still awake at this late night. Is there something else you want to tell me?" Frost Giant asked with concern.
Joan nodded: "Let's enter the room and talk."
"Okay." Clark invited him into the bedroom, sat on the bed, and asked curiously: "What's wrong with you looking worried?"
"We have eliminated all the withered monsters entrenched in the Davis ranch, but you see, the'Branch of Ilminsur' is still glowing, and the light is redder and brighter than when it was in the ranch." Joan Take the "Branch of Ilminsur" and show it to Clark.
"Well, what does this mean?" Frost Giant was confused.
"It means that there are other evil activated plants within the sensing range of the "Branch of Ilminsur". Joan whispered his speculation, "From the pasture to the town, this way came to sense The signal continues to strengthen, which shows that the evil plant is not in the pasture, but hidden in the town!"
"There are blight monsters in the town?" Clark asked hesitantly. "But I heard from Gordon that the blight monsters usually don't take the initiative to break into human towns. After all, the town has few trees and a dense population. The blight monsters are hard to hide. Once exposed, he will be caught and burned by the security forces."
"The intensity of this induction signal is very different from the withered monster, indicating that it is not the monster we have seen in the pasture. I suspect it is another kind of thing, specifically used to create and remotely control the withered monster." Joe Ann's face became more solemn, "Mr. Heil, have you ever heard of'Gantiyas Roots'?"
Clark nodded and thought back: "If I remember correctly,'Root of Gantias' seems to be a magic guide specially used by the Conquering Order to control withered monsters. I don't know how to control it, Joe. Brother Ann, can you elaborate?"
"'Gantias Tree Root' is a root cut off from the'Gandias Devil Tree'. Although it can't grow its hands and feet like a withered monster, it can move on its own, but it inherits the mother's Gantias. Part of the evil will of the Devil's Tree belongs to higher activated plants and can also be sensed by my'Branch of Ilminsur'."
Joan first briefly introduced the origin of "Gantiyas Roots", and then returned to the topic.
"Before we were on the ranch, the "Branch of Ilminsur" had a weak response to the "Gantias Roots", showing that the roots and their holders were farther away from us, and when we returned to the town On the contrary, the sense has increased, which means that the holder of the'Gantiyas Roots' is likely to also live in Haus Town!"
Clark not only developed limbs, but also was not stupid. He thought about Joan's suggestion with a little thought.
"The holder of'Gantiyas Roots'... are you referring to Henry Baldwin? This man does live in town, and his home is only two streets away from here!"
"There is no clear evidence yet, but from all the signs, Henry Baldwin is very suspicious." Joan said cautiously.
"Brother Joan, this matter is getting more and more interesting!"
Frost Giant jumped on his thigh in excitement, his head slammed into the ceiling, and he grinned in pain, but his excitement was not reduced.
"We first assume that Baldwin is the manipulator of the withered monster. Now that the withered monsters of Davis Ranch have been killed by us, will he be a black hand behind the scenes, will he be aware of it?"
"This...I don't know," Joan said honestly. "Even if he doesn't know it, he will be aware sooner or later."
"Yes! Baldwin will not let those monsters die on their own. It is reasonable to say that from time to time, they must personally or send their men to dive into Davis Ranch to check the situation of the withered monsters. It may even be possible to give orders and requests to the monsters. They are more active in attacking people and animals in the ranch!"
"It is indeed possible." Joan nodded in agreement.
"Under this premise, if Baldwin finds that the withered monsters are all slaughtered, do you think he will swallow this breath and let the Davis family go?"
"I'm afraid not...with his usual arrogant and overbearing style, he is more likely to be annoyed and take more intense measures to suppress Mr. Davis." Joan sighed, worried about the situation of the Davis family.
"I think so too! So ah, eliminating the blight will not solve the problem, but will cause more trouble! What we should do now is to go to the Baldwin family to investigate the truth as soon as possible, and rush to brew a new one at the conspirator. The poison scheme exposes his crimes before, and he gets the punishment he deserves!" Giant Frost waved his fists excitedly, and didn't want to delay for a minute.
"This..." Joan hesitated for a moment and thought Clark's idea was too aggressive, and asked him: "Would you like to consult Mr. Davis first?"
Clark waved his hand: "Daddy has fallen asleep, we better not disturb him, because he is very old-fashioned, abiding by the law all his life, I'm afraid I don't agree to sneak into Baldwin's mansion to investigate, it's not as good as the two of us Move quietly in the dark and save you trouble!"
"Sneak into the investigation?" Joe An stared at Frost Giant in surprise. "You're so bulky, isn't it convenient?"
Clark grinned, opened his storage bag, and found two sheepskin scrolls with magical aura.
Joan recognized the two "Stealth" scrolls with just one glance.
"Last year, when I was traveling in Nievolheim, I went to visit the Temple of Ms. Hull in the Polar Region and met an adult witch who was stationed in the Temple of Stygian. She entrusted me to find a treasure as an advance payment. Lord Witch I was given a large pack of spell scrolls to deal with possible dilemmas during the treasure hunt. These two invisible scrolls are part of it."
After listening to Clark's explanation, Joan returned the spell scroll to him: "These scrolls will be used when you still have the treasure hunt. I still have a lot of remaining spell slots, just cast a spell to help you invisibility."
"That's fine, but if we are all invisible, won't we see each other afterwards?" Clark asked worriedly.
"This is indeed a trouble, but it is not difficult to solve."
Joan opened his casting kit and took out two glass reagent bottles, one containing silver powder and the other a talc powder.
"I will make a magic potion here. You can get the insight of invisibility temporarily by drinking the potion."
