Marvelous Mecha

Chapter 648: The Mission Comes First_1


Does Eggy mean there's some sort of plot involving my heart? Feng Yi found the idea amusing and shook his head, "I think nothing's amiss, let's just let it be."

"What if the same situation happens again? Are you sure you can wake up from a dream like that?"

Eggy's words reminded Feng Yi. His mind had been preoccupied with the war to the point of exhaustion, leaving no room to think about anything else. However, Eggy's warning made him consider the issue seriously.

Feng Yi said, "You don't really think I will have a dream like this again next time I sleep, do you?"

Eggy said, "There is a high probability, no, I can be almost 80% sure."

Feng Yi, skeptical, asked, "Eggy my brother, why do you say that? If you're trying to sell something, don't scare me like this."

Unfortunately, Feng Yi saw no trace of humor in Eggy's eyes. The little creature gave a sinister smile and tried to sound convincing, "I read the combat data from your fight with Mengdie again. There was indeed no anomaly when she attacked your body. But that doesn't mean she didn't do anything. Have you heard any rumors about witchcraft?"

"Witchcraft? Like what?"

"For instance… voodoo. Of course, that's just a metaphor."

Feng Yi furrowed his brows, "Are you talking about things like curses, soul capturing, voodoo, curse seals, and Yin Yang witchcraft? I've heard of them before, but apart from nightmares, I haven't felt anything else abnormal about myself."

"Not feeling something doesn't mean it doesn't exist, boss. You have far too little understanding in this area."

"Oh? What do you mean by that?"

Eggy took a step back and explained, "It's because your physique is incredibly strong and not easily invaded. However, it doesn't mean it can't be disturbed, especially under human manipulation. In other words, even though your willpower might be strong, dreams are different. They can be the most vulnerable part of a human's mind. Considering you met Mengdie in your dream, it seems her name certainly fits her actions. Besides her, I can't come up with any other explanation. Didn't you also say that the dream felt too real?"

Feng Yi's mind tired out as he came to terms with this. His head nodded quietly, then, he patted his forehead, "Ah, if only I had a brain."

"Intelligence is a great thing to have, and luckily for you, Eggy is here." Eggy found the situation slightly amusing, but this was just friendly banter between the two.

Feng Yi pondered for a moment, then proposed, "From what I know, the execution of any type of witchcraft requires a specific medium to transmit it, like clothing, a location, or even a strand of hair."

"Well said." Eggy agreed with Feng Yi's view, "But this is what makes our enemies strange. So, I think the key lies in the two times Mengdie touched your fingers. Did you notice that after her finger touched you the second time, she seemed to lose her will to fight and wanted to stop? But for some unknown reason, two seconds later, she launched an attack on you again."

Feng Yi nodded, indicating that he had noticed and was concerned about this. It's rare for an opponent to touch him purposely during a battle. Since Mengdie wasn't teasing him, she must be plotting against him. He cursed silently.

However, although Eggy didn't detect any fluctuations in Mengdie's aura, he did see a trace of blue light emanating from her fingertips. Of course, what Mengdie used wasn't any form of spell that he recognized. Or maybe it was a type of curse seal, curse, or yin-yang five elements technique. "By the way, what exactly did Mengdie say to you?"

"Heh, she didn't say anything."

"What? She didn't say anything?"

"Yes, but I could intuitively sense her intentions. It must have been telepathy of sorts. Moreover, Mengdie doesn't seem to bear any ill will. At least, I didn't sense any intent to kill from her. Or perhaps she was disguising it."

"It seems we have to find her through Zana."

"You oversimplify things." Feng Yi shook his head and laughed bitterly, "Nothing's confirmed yet, even if it is, there isn't enough evidence. Moreover, if this really involves Mengdie, does that mean I, the Revenge Shadow Rider, will have to reveal my identity?"

Eggy was also taken aback by this remark, he sighed helplessly, "We don't have any other choice."

"Can't you find out where Mengdie is?"

"Not that I can't, there's just too few clues. I can only guess that Mengdie might be from three very ancient places, but it's not accurate."

"Which three places?"

"One is Jade Clear Sect, one is Nangong Family, and the other is Tianyin Sect. These are long ago records, and their current information cannot be verified unless we search through ancient history books. To my knowledge, the ancient martial arts sects that possess these abilities are limited to these three. However, Tianyin Sect belongs to the righteous side and they won't undertake assassinations or other scheming tasks for political reasons. Therefore, only the other two families remain."

"You're saying, the Nangong family and the Jade Clear Sect?"

"Yup, but it can't be confirmed."

"Can you find any information about them?"

"Not now, these ancient martial arts families are all very mysterious."

On hearing the name of the Nangong family, Feng Yi was reminded of Nangong Qi, but he immediately dismissed the idea. After all, Nangong Qi was just an ordinary girl, how could she be connected to these mystical sects? His thoughts were fleeting, "Eggy, can't you find any clues?"
