Chapter 3418: Changed Target

"My information is all about the internal situation of the 【Mimic's House】. I think you should have been warned not to enter the 【Mimic's House】, and even if you enter, don't go too deep."

Old John said, and everyone looked at him. The old man stood in the fire and said:

"Yes, we know something about the inside of the 【Mimic's House】. More than one person has broken into it, trying to unravel the true secret of this relic. It's a pity that to this day, mortals have never found a way to perfectly contain it, but those former explorers were indeed very brave people.

In short, the interior of the 【Mimic's House】 has obvious spatial anomaly characteristics. Its interior, relatively close to the edge of the exit, is not much different from a normal room. But the deeper you go, the more the space will present a scarlet color, until the walls, floors, and ceilings appear with flesh and blood tissue. Going deeper, the room is entirely composed of flesh and blood tissue, and continuing deeper is the deepest secret of the mimics."

Theoretically, the deeper you go, the more the flesh and blood that makes up our bodies will melt, eventually becoming part of that building. So the predecessors who left the information back then believed that non-flesh life, such as elemental creatures, were the best candidates to explore that house."

Seeing Xia De cast a curious look, the old man immediately shook his head:

"Don't look at me like that, I only know this, I don't know the deepest secret... However, I do have a rumor here. Just now, they were all records with definite evidence, this is just a rumor."

Doctor Schneider said:

"Old John, just say it directly. It can't be that there is a mother of mimics inside the 【Mimic's House】, and that thing gave birth to all mimics, right?"

"Of course not, but your statement is one of the conjectures about the interior of the 【Mimic's House】. What I want to say is that legend has it that in the deepest part of the 【Mimic's House】, where blood vessels gather and flesh and blood pile up, there is a red door. That door is tightly closed, but the mimics have mastered a way to steal some power from the crack of the door. That is the origin of the 【Mimic's House】."

The old man subconsciously lowered his voice. He looked at the sea of fire in front of him, a little distracted, and Xia De almost immediately realized what he was going to say.

"And that door leads to a delivery room, a delivery room left by an Old God."

Among the thirteen Old Gods, what the 【Twilight Creator】 possesses is the "Creation Delivery Room." When the Outsider first came to this world, he had heard that the 【Blood Spirit School】 had found the door in the New Continent.

"We don't have a plan to enter the 【Mimic's House】 today."

Purple eyes looked at Xia De. Luweiya saw that Xia De was very interested in this.

"I know, all we have to do is tear down the house."

Xia De nodded immediately. Although the door is important, he is not yet at the point where he would break into the interior of an unfamiliar Sage-level relic without knowing anything.

Because the advance plan was quite sufficient, no one escaped from the 【House of Resurrection】. Even the vampire-type creature Xia De was thinking about was discovered and killed by the maids while trying to break through and escape. At the last moment, it still thought about turning into a swarm of bats to escape, but the scattered bats still couldn't run faster than the strange arts.

That vampire-type creature had a sixth-rank level. Because the young ladies received orders not to hold back, they didn't bring back more information about him. However, the maids who participated in the battle at that time said that in addition to the vampire secret arts, he also used a very special blood spell.

"It looks like the moves of the 【Blood Spirit School】 recorded in the data."

After dealing with the ruins of the 【House of Resurrection】, the group followed the route planned by Old John, who was familiar with the situation nearby, bypassed the edge of the city, and went to the location of the main body of the 【Mimic's House】 in the western suburbs of the city.

Before Iluna set off with the crowd, she sent the location information of the 【Mimic's House】 to the church. Xia De didn't care whether the church arrived at the battlefield first or their group arrived first, as long as this thing could be solved, the action tonight would be a success.

The speed of riding a horse is actually not as fast as the full-speed advance of high-ranked Ringed Shushi, so the group walked with their legs directly. The lowest-ranked Priest Augustus and Xiris were carried by the doctor and Xia De respectively.

Old John didn't ask about the identities of those beautiful high-ranked young ladies, but he could probably guess. And the young ladies under Galina were particularly good at auxiliary abilities, so the speed of the group bypassing the city in the fields outside the city was extremely fast.

As the core of the team, Luweiya exerted her advantage as a diviner. On the way, she divined that the Church of Creation, which was already in the West District of the city, would arrive earlier than the group.

Xia De and others had concerns when fighting in the city, but the church, which was the home field, would not.

And Luweiya also discussed one thing with Xia De on the way:

"We are not going to the 【Mimic's House】."

The group was resting in the snow-covered fields at this moment, and they were about to enter the city, so they had to be prepared. Difa was contacting Galina, which would be convenient for everyone to withdraw later; Old John was whispering to Doctor Schneider, as if talking about the strange special material called "Universal Blood" that would be left behind after the 【Mimic's House】 was demolished.

This material has a very good therapeutic effect on trauma, and can be used as any type of human blood for transfusion. Old John and Doctor Schneider are both very interested in this.

Dorothy was communicating with Princess Lei Qianya in her heart. The princess also wanted to come to help, but the writer lady didn't want to leave halfway. The head of the high-ranked mimic had been destroyed at this time. Xiris was taking out the bullet containing the mimic's memory, intending to deal with this thing first—although it has value, it is also extremely dangerous. No one knows whether the mimic can be resurrected just by memory.

Xia De touched the cat on his shoulder. Little Mia raised her head and breathed the night wind, looking very comfortable.

"Why change the destination?"

Luweiya took back the divination cards that had just been scattered on the snow:

"Remember I said after divination yesterday that the root cause of this local incident might be related to an ordinary person? The clues obtained from the 【House of Resurrection】 allowed me to further investigate the results obtained from yesterday's divination.

The target is changed to a factory on the northeast side of the main body of the 【Mimic's House】. I believe in the result of this divination. Remember the card box 【Mercury Echo】 of the Keeper level I obtained after we performed the task before the festival? It can enhance the effect of the cards placed in it. Tonight's divination received its help. That steam factory might let us know the real reason for the appearance of the 【Mimic's House】 this time."

She said this:

"But I'm just making suggestions, you can make the decision."

Purple eyes looked at Xia De under the starry sky, and Xia De tilted his head to look at the city. After just a moment of thought, he nodded:

"No problem, anyway, we can't catch up with the first wave of attacks, so let's change the target."

Others did not oppose Xia De's decision, but once they failed to enter the battlefield for the first time, they would not have to participate in the subsequent attack on the 【Mimic's House】.

Xia De asked Iluna whether she wanted to stay and act with everyone or join the church's team. The eighteen-year-old girl certainly didn't want to leave:

"I also want to see what Luweiya's divination points to."

The change of destination also meant the change of the route. Old John helped formulate the route map again. After the group made the final preparations, they set off toward the destination.

As a large city that is constantly developing, Tobesk does not have a traditional city wall, so the boundary between inside and outside the city is not clear. When the group entered the "inside of the city" in the traditional sense, fire had already ignited in the direction of the 【Mimic's House】.

However, they didn't pay attention to that side, but focused on moving toward the location of the main body of the 【Mimic's House】 indicated by Luweiya in the western suburbs of the city. It was a medium-sized steam factory called "Murray Textile Factory." The factory had achieved a very thorough steam transformation, thereby realizing that the machines could run 24 hours a day without stopping.

Therefore, even though it was late Monday night, the textile factory was still brightly lit. However, this was not a strange thing, because most of the surrounding factories were also lit.

If the core city area where Xia De lived had the romantic night view of a big city in the steam age at night, then for the workers in the western city area, there were only buzzing machines, choking and unpleasant air, and work that would never end.

Excluding Little Mia, the team had a total of 23 people, and the only ones who were not high-ranked were Xiris and Priest Augustus. After arriving outside the wall on the east side of the factory, Xia De used 【Heart of Stone】 to listen to the heartbeat, and others also used different strange arts to investigate. The conclusion reached was that this was just a normal factory working at night.

"Normal" is relative. The dusty factory workshop environment is harsh and crowded, more than one-third of the workers are child laborers, and everyone's face is tired. This is normal in this era.

"Then let's confirm who the mimics inside are."

Luweiya whispered to Xia De, Xia De nodded, and then looked at the people acting together. At this time, the 23-person team had not dispersed, and no one knew the situation here:

"Luweiya, Old John, Doctor, Iluna, you come in with me. Dorothy, Difa, you lead the team to respond outside. Seeing moonlight represents launching an attack, seeing snow represents helping us escape."

After a simple discussion of the plan, the five people climbed over the wall together and entered the factory area. Of course, there would be no sentries inside the factory, and they didn't need to worry about being easily detected when they acted.

They first approached the spinning workshop closest to the wall. Xia De glanced at the stuffy room, and was immediately shocked:

"How is it possible?"

"Are there many mimics?"

"No, they are all mimics." ===== CHAPTER 3419 =====
