Chapter 669 – Chapter 659: Lurk
Buzz!
A patterned bee flew past the leaves in front of her.
Eleanor completely ignored it. She stuck her body tightly to the tree. The rough bark scratched her smooth skin, giving her an extremely uncomfortable feeling. However, she knew that she had to endure it, this was because there was a high possibility that the previous Saintess lived in the temple 300 meters away. If she discovered that she was here, it would not be as simple as feeling uncomfortable.
She had sneaked into the most heavily guarded Holy Mountain in the outer wall area for half an hour and had found the best observation angle. As long as she did not come within two hundred meters and did not have any killing intent.., she believed that even if Aisha really existed here, she would not be able to detect her existence. She had verified this many years ago when she sneaked into the Holy Maiden Peak.
“There is a total of… two people’s scents. One of them has the scent of a male’s sweat. According to the intelligence report, there has been a youth following her closely. This scent should be that youth’s.â€Eleanor’s gaze swept over the temple, for a veteran expert like her, she would be able to detect anyone who looked at her from afar, “The other smell is a little similar to her. It should be her. However, there is some bloody smell mixed in with the smell of decay. It’s a little strange.â€
She gently sniffed and picked up the smell coming from the temple in front of her. She was a little doubtful. She was already seventy percent sure that the other person in the temple was really Aisha, she did not die outside the wall like Hathaway said.
However, she understood Hathaway’s character. Seventy percent was clearly not enough to satisfy her. She could only wait until she verified it with her own eyes!
She waited for half an hour. Ten minutes ago, she saw a figure walking toward the window of the temple. It was the youth who was given to her in the information. He had black hair and stood alone by the window, he was holding a roll of paper in his mouth. He lit it up and breathed in and out smoke.
When the smoke came out, it immediately made her feel nauseous. The smell was pungent and unpleasant. However, she saw that the youth did not seem to care about the smell. He inhaled and exhaled the smoke that gave off a strange smell, his face did not look like he was enjoying it, nor did it look like he was rejecting it. He seemed to be thinking about something.
She looked at the corner of the window but did not see Aisha. She was a little disappointed, but she thought to herself that with Aisha’s mysophobia, it was already very kind of her to be able to tolerate the boy to create such a strange smell under the same roof, it was already very merciful.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was lunchtime.
She had been waiting for this moment. She saw the boy who frequently entered the temple, dressed in the Pope’s robe, bringing his attendants into the hall. Among the food covered by the lid, she smelled a fragrant smell, at the same time, she also smelled the pungent smell of blood. It was obviously raw meat! And it was the smell of raw beef. There was a hint of the smell of beef.
She frowned slightly. This raw beef was most likely cooked beef that was only slightly fried. It should be eaten by the young man. As for Aisha, she had never liked to see fresh blood. The food she ate was usually eighty percent cooked.
Not long after, lunch ended, and the servants left with their cutlery.
Eleanor continued to wait for a while, but still did not see anyone coming out. She could not help but feel depressed. Could it be that Aisha and the youth planned to stay inside for the whole day, and did not even know to come out to exercise?
When it was around three o’clock in the afternoon, there was still no movement inside. She felt depressed and quietly descended from the tree. A few strange limbs slowly grew out of her chest and quickly dived into the ground. This was her magic marks ability.
After she dived into the ground, her eyes were still open. However, her normal eyes had turned completely white, as if she had rolled her eyes. In her eyes, although there was no light source, the surroundings were not pitch black, moreover, the crowded sand and stones around did not damage her eyes. If one looked carefully, they would find that there was a layer of transparent crystal-like material outside her eyes, protecting them.
She listened quietly. Her perception spread along the soil like spider silk, extending straight to the bottom of the temple. The soil under the temple was like a dark lake, as quiet as a mirror, at this moment, in the middle of the Dark Lake, there were some ripples. In the materialization of her auditory perception, there were two feet at the ripples. The feet did not move when they stepped on the ground, but the limbs on the feet, all the way to the chest, had hearts beating. This weak beating transmitted a faint sound, it was transmitted to the ground through the soles of the feet and then into her ears.
Other than her super sense of smell, which could distinguish hundreds of thousands of smells, her hearing was the strongest weapon.
“The heartbeat rate is stable, and there is only one person’s movement…â€Eleanor’s white eyes stared unblinkingly at the soil in front of her, which seemed a little terrifying. She listened even more attentively, the scent that she had smelled earlier was clearly two people’s. Why was there only one person’s movement? Could it be that she had already sensed her existence, so she had covered up her movement?
But even if she had to cover it up, how could she cover it up? Could it be that she was soaring in the Divine Hall?
After listening carefully for a long time, there was still no movement from the second person. The doubt in her heart slowly turned into fear. Could it be that she was such an existence, yet she could not sense her?
Was this her new ability?
She could not think of an answer. After hesitating for a long time, she gritted her teeth. A few strange limbs grew out from under her body and quickly pierced through the soil, pushing her deeper into the ground. After diving more than a hundred meters underground, she carefully approached the divine hall in front of her.
After a moment, she came to the bottom of the Divine Hall, and then continued to climb forward for a distance before stopping.
“A meter further is the cliff. Once I go out, I might expose my scent. It’s Too Close.â€Her eyes flashed and she smiled bitterly in her heart. It was really a tough job.
Fortunately, she was prepared. She immediately took out a thin black pipe from her armor, poked the soil, and stretched it out.
When she reached out, she opened her mouth and took a mouthful of soil. She used her teeth and lips to hold the soil, then blew a breath into the pipe. The force of the breath was strong, forcing the soil out of the pipe, because of the soil in her mouth, her breath was full of the smell of soil. It was not easy to be suspicious, and most people would think that it was the mountain wind that blew.
After the tube was connected, she took out a thin wire and a lens the size of a finger cap. She put a thin wire through a small needle hole on the lens and tied it. Then she stuffed the lens into the thin tube and blew it out of the tube, exposing it on the cliff, then, she gently adjusted the thin wire and pulled the lens back into a very tiny “Vâ€-shaped indentation at the mouth of the tube, making the lens tilt up fifty degrees.
From this angle, she could just see the situation on the cliff from the tube. This was her favorite observation method for many years. There were not many materials, but it was portable, hidden, and could be casually thrown away without being noticed.
After finishing the observation tool, she took out a second thin tube and carefully stuck it out of the soil, exposing it outside the cliff. The tube had a curved curve, and she took out a small red nail that she had prepared with her, she stuffed it into the tube. At the end of the red nail was a glass tube device, which was her unique design. After adjusting the angle of the red nail in the tube, she took a deep breath from the surrounding soil and blew it out.
The Red Spike shot out rapidly, following the arc of the tube towards the top of the cliff. It nailed onto the cliff that was dozens of meters high, making very little noise.
After doing all this, she began to wait quietly.
Not long after, there was a rustling sound on the cliff. Some wriggling poisonous snakes and small poisonous lizards climbed up the steep cliff one after another. These poisonous insects crawled towards the red spike as if they were summoned.
Eleanor looked through the thin tube and waited attentively.
She knew that the people in the temple would definitely notice the movement and come over to observe.
