Hearthstone Farm Lord

Chapter 237 [Mind Stealing] (Thanks to Yaoyao for the month, ticket)

"Metaphysics?" Sean was a little puzzled. Could it be that Azeroth also pays attention to such things as "metaphysics"?

Anduin nodded seriously:

"That's right! According to my judgment, the existence of adventurers does have metaphysical elements."

Seeing Sean's disbelief, Anduin continued to explain:
"Although the strength of the adventurers is weak, they can't play a decisive role in the war situation. But the strange thing is that no matter how powerful they are, as long as they stand on their opposite side, they will inevitably die.

The Lich King, Deathwing, and even the mighty ancient god N'Zoth fell because they stood against the adventurers. This is the so-called 'metaphysics' I mentioned. "

After hearing Anduin's explanation, Sean couldn't help wiping his sweat. It turned out that this was what Anduin was talking about.

Sean knew very well what the truth behind the "metaphysics" Anduin said was, but he couldn't explain this kind of thing to him, so he could only echo:

"Then have you found the answer to the so-called 'metaphysics'?"

"No." Anduin shook his head helplessly:
"I have been in close contact with adventurers, and they will respond to whatever I ask them to do. There is nothing unusual except that they often say some words that I don't understand. It seems that something is secretly preventing me from understanding the truth of the matter.

So I can only keep telling myself not to stand on the opposite side of adventurers.”

At this time, Anton, Sean's personal servant, suddenly walked into the restaurant, and Anduin immediately interrupted his words.

But looking at Anton who just walked in, Anduin looked thoughtful.

……

After Anton arrived at the restaurant, he saluted the three of them respectfully: "Sir, Lord Anduin, Lord Windsor."

Before Anton finished speaking, Anduin suddenly raised his right hand and placed it on the back of Anton's head.

For a moment, Anton froze on the spot and could not move, and the light in his pupils gradually became dull. It was obvious that he was controlled by Anduin.

Seeing Sean and Windsor's puzzled looks, Anduin explained:

"My lord, Windsor, this is [Mind Stealing]. Just now, I felt that this skill suits me very well, so I tried to learn it, and I learned it in less than 2 minutes."

Sean: "."

Windsor and Anduin are really learning skills faster than the other, but looking at myself...

Sean suddenly felt helpless. The gap between people is really bigger than that between people and dogs!

Seeing Sean's helpless expression, Anduin could probably guess what Sean was thinking, and comforted him:
"My lord, learning spells is just a matter of fit. It may take me a whole day to learn [Resurrection] like me. It can't be so fast."

Sean's expression improved a little and he asked, "Then what is the effect of [Thought Stealing]?"

The card description of [Thought Stealing] is to steal two cards. In the real world, you can no longer steal cards!

Anduin's hand was shining with black and white lights, and while casting a spell on Anton, he replied:

"The [Mind Stealing] skill can check all other people's memory fragments within 7 days. Based on the memory, we can judge whether he is a spy. After all, people can lie, but memory can't tell lies... Wait! No way!"

Anduin suddenly changed his expression, as if he had discovered something extraordinary, and at the same time he also canceled the [Thought Stealing] on Anton.

Sean wanted to ask Anduin if he had discovered something, but Sean knew that he would tell Anduin even if he didn't ask.Coupled with the fact that the servant Anton returned to normal, Sean didn't speak again.

……

The servant Anton felt like he had a nightmare suddenly, and now he suddenly woke up from the nightmare, his brain was still a little groggy, and he just asked blankly:
"Master, what happened just now."

Sean looked at Anduin, and Anduin glanced at Anton, then shook his head.

So Sean said calmly:
"It's nothing just now, maybe Anduin didn't control his aura and hurt you by mistake. Anton, what do you want me to do?"

Only then did Anton realize that there was still business to do, so he rubbed his brows that were a little sore with his hands, and replied:

"My lord, according to the news from the guards, the army led by Steward Henry is going very smoothly, and will be able to reach Hetan Town at noon the day after tomorrow!"

Sean walked forward and patted Anton's shoulder encouragingly:

"Very well, I see. Anton, let the guard who reported the message have a good rest, and then let another guard ride to tell Henry that he will be there to meet them at noon the day after tomorrow!"

"Okay, sir!"

The servant Anton was flattered when he saw Sean's sudden kindness. After bowing happily to Sean, he left the restaurant.

After Anton left, Sean immediately looked at Anduin who was thinking seriously:
"What did you see just now? Could it be that there is something wrong with Anton?"

"No, there's nothing wrong with Anton, and I don't see any signs of him being unfaithful to you."

Anduin shook his head: "But deep in Anton's mind, I found some interesting memory fragments."

Before Sean could speak, Wen De Sole asked curiously: "Anduin, what kind of memory fragment?"

Anduin sorted out his thoughts and replied:

"This memory happened the morning before yesterday. At that time, Anton was cleaning up the room in your bedroom. Suddenly a little girl broke into your bedroom..."

Hearing this, Sean interrupted:

"Let me guess! I guess the girl is the boatman's daughter—Anna!"

Anduin was taken aback immediately:
"How do you know, my lord?"

Sean smiled: "It's all guesswork, Anduin, you continue to talk."

Anduin shook his head and continued:

“Ana entered your room and immediately took control of Anton and started looking for various things in your room.

But her expression seemed to be annoyed, as if she didn't find what she wanted. "

"Normal." Sean smiled: "The important materials I sorted out are all written in Chinese characters, and they can't understand them. It's normal that they can't find what they need."

"What are 'Chinese characters'?" Windsor interjected.

"Oh, Chinese characters are a language that only I understand." Sean quickly changed the subject: "Anduin, keep talking."

Anduin spread his hands: "There is nothing after that. Although Anton was controlled and completely forgot about the incident, his memory fragments are still retained in the depths of his mind, so I saw this scene...

Unexpectedly, Anna turned out to be a spy.Best of all, I didn't realize this before! "

Sean nodded and touched his chin: "This can be regarded as confirming our guess. Yesterday Dalia Blade song told me that Anna might have a problem, but it was just a guess, and now the evidence is conclusive!"
