Chapter 185 New clues
The return of Shen Mo and Qing Feng temporarily relieved the whole city, but the news they brought back made everyone's heart hang again. Lin Yuwei and Su Yao sat together with them, discussing the next step with a serious look.
"Those strange symbols and the disappearing road are obviously not ordinary traps." Lin Yuwei analyzed with a frown.
Su Yao echoed: "There must be a deeper conspiracy behind this."
Shen Mo pondered for a moment and said, "We have to start from the source of the letter and see if we can find more clues."
So they began to ask around about the origin of the letter. After a few days of visits, they finally got some useful information from a street vendor.
The vendor recalled: "That morning, a man in a black robe with an unclear face handed me a letter and asked me to pass it on to you. Before I could ask more questions, the man left in a hurry."
"A man in black robe?" Qingfeng stroked his chin in thought.
Shen Mo then asked, "Did you notice anything special about him? Like the symbols on his body or the items he carried."
The vendor tried to recall for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Oh, I think I saw a snake-like tattoo on his wrist."
This clue inspired everyone, and they decided to start the investigation from the snake tattoo.
After much inquiry, they learned that in the city's underground world, there was a mysterious organization whose members' symbol was a snake tattoo.
"Could it be that this organization is behind this?" Su Yao asked doubtfully.
In order to get to know this mysterious organization in depth, Shen Mo and his team decided to venture into the underground world of the city, which is full of dangers and unknowns and is full of people of all kinds.
They carefully shuttled through the narrow and dark streets, avoiding those malicious eyes. Finally, in a shabby tavern, they found a person related to the mysterious organization.
This person sat alone in a corner, his eyes alert. Shen Mo walked up to him and tentatively mentioned the matter of the snake tattoo.
The man instantly became alert and looked them up and down: "Who are you? Why are you asking about this?"
Shen Mo lowered his voice and said, "We just want to understand some situations. We have no ill intentions."
The man sneered: "Humph, no ill intentions? Who would believe that?"
Just when the situation reached a stalemate, Lin Yuwei cleverly took out a precious gem from her bosom and handed it to the man: "This is a small gift, I hope you can do me a favor."
Seeing the gem, the man's expression softened a little: "Okay, for the sake of the gem, I can tell you something. But you'd better not cause trouble."
He learned that this mysterious organization has been operating in secret, trying to control the underground order of the city. Recently, they seem to be planning a bigger conspiracy.
"What conspiracy?" Qingfeng asked anxiously.
The man shook his head. "I don't know the details, I just know it has something to do with a powerful magical item."
After getting this vague clue, Shen Mo and his team decided to continue looking for more information in the underground world. They met various people, some of whom provided some fragmentary clues, while others tried to deceive them.
In the process, they also encountered several attacks from members of a mysterious organization, but they relied on their tacit cooperation and outstanding combat capabilities to escape danger time and time again.
Finally, they got important news from a person who was once a member of a mysterious organization but later quit because of a change of heart.
"It is said that they are looking for a lost artifact. It is said that this artifact has extremely powerful power and can control people's minds."
This news shocked Shen Mo and the others.
"If they get this artifact, the consequences will be disastrous." Lin Yuwei said worriedly.
Shen Mo clenched his fists: "No matter what, we must stop them."
However, it is not easy to find the whereabouts of this artifact. They need more clues and help...
