Chapter 690: A Gamble
Fortunately, he still had the transformation stickers, so he didn't need to buy other tools at this time.
Lu Chihuan raised his hand.
Carefully stick the sticker behind your ear in front of a mirror.
It doesn't take a moment.
His hair and eye color have changed, becoming a light blue like the sea, and his facial features have also been adjusted to look delicate and well-behaved, but not very conspicuous.
Compared to his original face, it is only about 40% similar.
Also.
He even went out of his way to imitate the mermaids he had seen before.
He stuck a few small light blue scales on his neck, the corners of his eyes and the backs of his hands. In this way, the residents of this coastal city probably thought he was a half-blood merman from somewhere else, and would not recognize him as a human being.
"Perfect."
Lu Chihuan snapped his fingers.
Now he looked at the mecha keychain that was sitting obediently in his breast pocket.
Because Eaton has already put part of his consciousness into it, he can freely control the activities of this scaled-down mecha, and running and jumping are no problem at all.
"All right."
"Let's go now."
Because this pocket is a little deep.
Eaton was worried that he would slip into it due to the bumps, so he stretched out his two short hands to grab the edge of the pocket, then nodded seriously, "Master."
"Thank you for your hard work."
original.
The disappearance of these small robots is the internal affairs of the Mechanical City. The owner does not need to get involved and only needs to sit in the Mechanical City and wait for news from them.
But the master still accompanied him all the way to this coastal city in Stuhai.
and so.
It was touched but also felt a little guilty.
The final analysis was that I was too useless, so not only did I fail to get the seal that my master needed, but now I have to trouble my master to accompany me in the open air and work hard.
Lu Chihuan naturally heard the hidden meaning of Eaton's words, and he blinked a few times.
Then he laughed again
The pair of black and white eyes were as clear and clean as if they had been washed with water, without any impurities, "What are you working so hard for?"
"Originally, I also needed to find the seal to see if it contained the energy I needed, so it was just a matter of convenience for me to come here and look for those little robots."
"Moreover."
"You are my comrade-in-arms. Your business is my business."
It bent its fingers and gently tapped the little robot's head, smiling lightly and mischievously, "Besides, didn't you and Jinwu help me when I entered the wormhole earlier? There's no need to be so polite."
Eaton heard the word comrade.
Body meal.
The satisfaction and happiness that emerges from the core of the heart are like a carbonated drink that has been shaken and is about to gurgle out.
Whether they are comrades or subordinates.
As long as it can stay with its owner.
As the man and the mecha were talking, it didn't take them too long to arrive at the entrance of this coastal city. However, what surprised Lu Chihuan was that there was a long queue at the entrance.
The guards at the gate seemed to be checking the identities of those entering the city one by one.
Outsiders are not allowed to enter.
For a moment, he was somewhat glad that he had made a special disguise beforehand, but at the same time he was a little puzzled. After all, he had inquired about this coastal city before, and although it was relatively xenophobic, the management was not as strict as it is now.
Don’t say anything else.
Take the guards patrolling the gate for example...there wasn't any of them a while ago.
Therefore.
If foreigners want to enter this coastal city, they can get in by simply disguising themselves a little and taking advantage of the situation.
See this.
Lu Chihuan asked the mermaid standing in front of him about the situation.
He deliberately pretended to be timid and uneasy, and lowered his voice, "My dear brother, I want to ask if there is any big event in this city. This is the first time I have seen such a scene, and I am really a little uneasy."
The mermaids have always been protective of their young.
There was no discrimination against mixed-blood mermen, so after seeing the merman features on Lu Chihuan, the merman's expression softened a bit, "You've asked the right person."
"I have a friend who works in the city."
"I heard from him that some important person seemed to be coming to attend the ceremony in our city this month, so the governor wanted to manage the order in the city and hold the ceremony more grandly. Who would have thought that a few days ago..."
"Someone destroyed a small portion of the offerings and materials needed for the ceremony."
Speaking of it.
This mermaid was obviously somewhat dissatisfied.
"The governor got very angry when he found out, but the murderer has not been caught yet... According to the mermaid who was on night patrol that night, he saw a vague black shadow passing by, accompanied by a strange and distorted song."
"Now everyone is suspicious——"
"Is it because the spirits of the mermaid royal family who died in that incident refuse to rest in peace that they are causing such a commotion?"
Lu Chihuan was stunned.
He pretended to be frightened, raised his timid eyes to look at the mermaid, and then stammered in a low voice, "Do ghosts really exist in this world?"
The mermaid shook her head.
"I don't know."
"But I guess the Archon doesn't believe it. He is very worried about the rumors in the city and the destruction of the sacrifice."
"He was also worried that the important person who was about to enter the city would be dissatisfied because of this, so he made up his mind to deal with this strange incident carefully. He was the one who transferred the guards at the city gate."
Seeing that the mermaid explained the matter clearly in a few words, Lu Chihuan nodded thoughtfully. He smiled at the other party without hesitation and whispered:
"Thank you for telling me this."
The merman saw that Lu Chihuan was young and handsome, and estimated that he should not be very old, so he spoke to comfort him, "You don't have to be too scared. The governor will not attack us mermen or mixed-blood mermen."
"Those cleared out of the team are basically foreigners with ulterior motives."
Lu Chihuan nodded obediently.
His eyes fell on the front of the team not far away. He saw the captain of the guard team picked out a short man from the team, and then said impatiently, "Do you foreigners really think that we mermaids are stupid?"
"Do you really think that by changing your eye color or sticking a few scales on your body, you can disguise yourself as a mermaid and walk into the city with impunity? Don't you think too highly of us?"
"The aura of us mermaids is different from that of you foreigners."
"so--"
"Basically, as soon as you get close, we can detect something unusual."
He snorted again.
The hawk-like eyes scanned the other people in the team, and then continued in a rough voice, "If there are other foreigners in the team queuing to enter the city."
"I would like to give you a piece of advice."
"Don't waste your energy. The prison in our city is not a good place."
As soon as these words came out.
There was another commotion in the team.
Lu Chihuan noticed with his sharp eyes that someone had sneakily left the queue, and he thought that he had given up on entering the city after being warned by the guard.
All of a sudden.
His heart was also swaying.
Just when he was wondering whether to leave directly or take a gamble.
He saw the little robot hidden in his chest pocket looking at him worriedly. It was afraid that speaking rashly would attract other people's attention, so it patted Lu Chihuan on the chest.
It seemed as if she was trying to persuade him to leave.
Although the disappearance of the little robot needs to be investigated as soon as possible, for Eaton, the life of its owner is more important.
It cannot possibly put its owner in danger.
This snap reminded Lu Chihuan of something. He lowered his eyes and pondered for a while, his pale pink lips unconsciously pursed, and finally he made up his mind to take a gamble.
"don’t worry."
Lu Chihuan moved his lips soundlessly.
He raised his hand and pressed the head of the little robot into his chest pocket. His pair of bright black eyes were like a calm lake, quite calm and composed.
"trust me."
talking.
He followed closely behind the team again, taking a few steps forward with his long legs.
Because now there are basically only half-blood mermen and mermen left in the team.
Therefore, the guards speeded up the process of checking everyone's identities. The originally long line shortened rapidly, and it didn't take more than a few minutes before it was Lu Chihuan's turn.
Lu Chihuan obediently swiped his ID card on the robot.
This thing was a fake identity that he had asked someone to make. Not only was it a one-to-one replica of a real ID card in appearance, but it also had a special program installed inside, so it could basically pass the verification of all machines without revealing any flaws.
unless.
Someone retrieved the data from the database on the spot for a one-to-one verification, otherwise no one would be able to recognize Lu Chihuan's fake identity.
Naturally, the guard didn't notice it either.
But after he looked Lu Chihuan up and down.
For some reason, there was a hint of hesitation and confusion on his face, as if the aura of Lu Chihuan made him a little confused, and therefore his judgment was also a little problematic.
"you."
"Come closer."
He ordered Lu Chihuan in a cold and hard voice, trying to figure out the confusing atmosphere and what was wrong.
All of a sudden.
Lu Chihuan's heart tightened slightly.
He was afraid that the guard would notice something from him.
but.
The more nervous and anxious he is at this moment, the more he needs to stay calm. Otherwise, the other party won't have to ask him anything at all. Just by looking at the expression on his face, they will probably know everything.
Think of this.
Lu Chihuan took two steps forward calmly again, his dark eyes blinked a few times, and then he pretended to be a little timid and ignorant, as if he didn't understand what was going on.
The guard was carefully sensing the chaotic aura coming from Lu Chihuan.
But the next moment-
His expression changed drastically.
There was also a bit of disbelief and awe in the look he gave Lu Chihuan.
You should know that mermaids can sense each other's breath, and the breath of the mermaid royal family has a natural restraining effect on them, which can make them surrender uncontrollably.
And just now.
He actually sensed a hint of the aura of the Stu mermaid royal family from this ordinary hybrid mermaid in front of him.
This made him shudder.
My legs trembled unconsciously and I almost fell to my knees.
You can't go wrong.
Only the aura of the Stu mermaid royal family can have such an effect!
The reason why Stu, the mermaid royal family, could keep his aura on himself was either that the two had been in perfect harmony countless times, or that he was carrying a personal item of the royal family, although he didn't know how this mixed-blood mermaid was related to the royal family.
But in either case.
He can't afford to offend anyone.
What's more, the mermaid royal family has a deep affection for this half-blood mermaid, so there should be no problem with his identity.
So he took two steps back.
He nervously but respectfully extended his hand to Lu Chihuan, “Your identity is fine.”
"this way please."
Lu Chihuan nodded.
Then he seemed to realize something, and looked at the guard with a half-smile, until he made the guard break out in a cold sweat, and then he finally lifted his feet.
Walk towards the city.
This ambiguous look made the guard subconsciously reflect on himself and wonder if he had done something wrong just now. However, he couldn't come up with a result for a while.
Just to be on the safe side.
He also did not privately tell others that he had sensed the aura of the mermaid royal family from the other party. After all, the wrath of the superior would be a disaster for small fry like them.
This concerns the other person's privacy.
He'd better keep his mouth shut.
Lu Chihuan straightened his back and walked for several hundred meters. After turning into a small alley, he let himself exhale deeply the foul air in his lungs, and his whole body relaxed.
…passed.
His fingers touched his chest.
Through a thin layer of clothing, Lu Chihuan could feel the general shape of the scale on his chest and the uneven texture on it.
If he guessed correctly -
I was able to avoid the guard's inspection just now thanks to these scales.
Perhaps it was because this scale was a heart scale given by Stuka Lumen, and it was pulled out from the place closest to the heart.
In addition.
This thing connected him to Stuka Lumin's spiritual sea several times, so he inevitably had some of the other party's aura on his body, which confused the guard.
He was thinking of taking a gamble just now.
The purpose is to bet on whether the scale given by Stuka Lumen is useful.
The results are obvious.
He won the bet.
"We are already inside now."
Lu Chihuan stretched out his hand and placed the small robot in his chest pocket into the palm of his hand. He first rubbed the other's head affectionately with his fingers, and then motioned him to look at the surrounding environment.
"Next."
"Let's look for traces of those little robots in this city and see if they have left any clues here."
Eaton didn't expect that his master could enter the city so easily.
It had already guessed that Lu Chihuan might have some special item in his hand that helped him hide from the guards, but since Lu Chihuan didn't say anything, it didn't plan to ask further.
It was just about to speak.
The radar built into the body beeped twice, and the positioning settings of those small robots had clearly disappeared.
But at this moment, the few small dots that symbolized them suddenly appeared again for some reason, and were now flashing on the map.
This is--
what happened? !
