Four Split Personalities

Chapter 2736 - 1294: What a Coincidence

As mentioned before, that insect repellent aroma called "Expanse Mirroring Mirror Incense, ninth generation," developed at Master Guna’s alma mater, has long been built into every Magic Crystal Lamp in Academy City. It’s an engineered construct that doesn’t harm any intelligent race but can effectively drive away all kinds of mosquitoes and poisonous bugs. Its working principle has been listed as one of Academy City’s top secrets; outsiders only know the effect is ridiculously good, but they can hardly imitate it.

After the last Academy City exchange conference ended, many factions sent large orders for "The Insect Repellent" to Academy City, including but not limited to nations, various associations, large Mercenary Corps, and many well-known chambers of commerce and financial groups. In short, it’s very popular.

By the way, during the last exchange conference, when Wealth Saintess Phyllis Graham attended as an intern, she represented the Wealth Church and successfully negotiated an order for "The Insect Repellent." This is one of the deeds she’s proudest of; on the way here she repeated it to Motan, Yu Chen and the others who knows how many times.

In summary, the effectiveness of this thing is beyond doubt, not to mention that only Academy City can be the first to deploy the "ninth generation." As one insider put it: "Those bugs evolve pretty fast, but in the end their evolution is cost-free. With our massive funding, we’re obviously going to outpace them in R&D speed."

Thus it’s very easy for us to arrive at a conclusion: if there’s a bug that can be immune to the latest model of "The Insect Repellent," then it’s definitely not an ordinary bug.

Motan had specifically asked Master Guna about this earlier. Without a doubt, even in the outer ring of Academy City, the "The Insect Repellent" installed in the Magic Crystal Lamps along both sides of the roads is the newest model.

Spending most of his time holed up in the "Favor" inn, with Tom, a top-tier Strong, by his side for protection, "Hei Fan" is not an ideal surveillance target. If someone really is secretly watching "our group," then making "Black Vatican Priest" their primary target would be anything but a wise choice.

Similarly, Tan Mo / Frank / Zelda are in a comparable situation, and even harder to get a handle on than "Hei Fan." On the one hand, Tan Mo is just too damn elusive; on the other hand, there’s that woman named Diana A. Achizolti. Despite her being rather airheaded in personality and having the standard scholar’s temper, if someone really set their sights on her dear Frank... for a Grand Astrologist, dragging someone out into the light would be way too easy.

So barring any surprises, the other side should still be making their move through Cole.

And in this regard, Motan has already made his preparations.

All in all, after neatly listing out the vast majority of possibilities, Motan might be annoyed, but he already knew very clearly what he needed to do.

If the other side wants to pull something, then at this moment, he himself in the "Mor" state is without a doubt the perfect surveillance target. Under this premise, even with that passive "cannot lie," Motan still has ways to achieve his goal.

For example, on a day like today, go out for a walk with Ji Xiaoge alone, and under that precondition naturally steer the topic toward today’s main subject—"Night Song’s temp job career is finally over, so we can have some proper fun."

In this way, given Ji Xiaoge’s personality, she’ll definitely think of the agreement she made with Yu Chen earlier. And it just so happens that when Motan messaged Ji Xiaoge before, he "casually" mentioned that "he" had been busy with Warfire League stuff lately and would be completely free afterwards; this makes it perfectly possible to nail down the time through her.

After the Warfire League ends, the four characters Morning Forgotten Language, Hei Fan, Night Song, and Mor will get together again for a small reunion. At that time, there may also be people like Ya Ya, Jadka, Cordova and others joining in. This is undoubtedly going to be a very headache-inducing scene.

But unlike his previous, almost pathologically avoidant negative attitude, this troublesome little gathering that seems to vex Motan this time is actually something he himself is engineering.

He will create a difficult situation, personally shackle himself layer by layer, all to draw out the person lurking in the shadows.

Every link leaks no extra information; every detail is meticulously disguised as something utterly natural.

If one wants to glimpse the full shape of this plan, the only way is to read the mind of the person "Motan." Otherwise, no matter who it is, they won’t find a single flaw.

What’s more, even if that outrageous assumption up above really turns out to be true, for Motan it would still count as a kind of gain—even if it’s a gain he absolutely does not want.

In any case, in this matter, no matter which personality is at the wheel, Motan has reached absolute agreement on the subjective level. Not only will they not trip each other up, they’ll instead do their utmost to cooperate.

A plan wrapped in a harmless shell, overflowing with conspiracy inside, and whose core is made of open schemes, has quietly begun—just to catch a clear glimpse of that cunning "hunter’s" true form.

For no good reason, his identity seems highly likely to have been obtained by some unknown person. Compared with that, both the "Warfire League" and the "Library Dungeon" have become trivial.

[No one is without flaws... Even if you hide in the deepest Shadow, I’ll drag you out.]

After that flying insect completely Disappeared from the edge of his vision, the corner of Motan’s mouth curled up slightly, and he unconsciously let a faint smile slip.
