Chapter 306: Chapter 202: Curse Mark Activates_3
The voices of the City Patrol Guards faintly reached them from outside the carriage, apparently about to search the vehicle.
Watching Lynn, Tiya glanced at him with a hint of concern.
It seed that the blockade of Glostit was even stricter than she had imagined.
It wasn’t even a matter of whether they would find a way out of the city after reaching the Black Street Market, they were currently facing a difficult barrier to overco.
If the guards used any detection-type Sealed Object, it would be quite easy to find out they were disguised.
Fortunately, Lynn seed quite calm, softly patting her hand.
...
At this mont, Tiya no longer resisted such a gesture, or perhaps she had no mind to consider such trivial matters.
When the carriage door opened, several vigilant City Patrol Guards ca into view.
Not only that, but there were also a few Transcendents wearing military uniforms standing behind them, clearly elites from the Military Departnt.
“Age, na, residence address, and the purpose of going to the North District, report them all,” a guard commanded with seriousness.
The young couple at the front seed to be afraid, anxiously giving their personal information.
A guard next to them took notes in a booklet.
When it was the turn of the elderly couple, perhaps due to experience or simply because of their advanced age, they seed quite composed.
But without any resistance, they honestly answered the guards’ questions.
It’s our turn!
Only when the guards cast a stern gaze at them did Tiya feel the pressure.
After all, she had seldom lied before, having grown up in the protected environnt crafted by the Church. How could she have experienced such things?
Moreover, she hadn’t elaborated much on this fake identity.
Age and na were manageable, but a cursory check on the residence address would reveal discrepancies.
What should she do?
Just make up sothing to muddle through this difficult situation?
Or should she…
Tiya’s palms began to sweat faintly, even contemplating the worst-case scenario—starting a fight in full view of the public.
If things really ca to that, there would be no turning back.
Under the lowered brim of her feminine hat, Tiya’s face turned sowhat pale.
However, the next mont, the young man’s fluid response echoed in her ear.
“Officer, my na is Paris Nelson; this is my wife, Veronica Nelson. We currently reside at 306 Pierre Street, and we are headed to the North District to…”
Watching the guard’s suspicion gradually fade from his eyes, Lynn once again marveled at the power of Lie Swallowing.
This ability had not advanced, but whether it was an illusion or not, ever since he used the Pine Card in the Life Player mode, it felt increasingly easy to use.
He was confident that even a Demigod would not detect his lies in a short period.
As far as he knew, Lie Swallowing was part of the “Deceit” belief.
And the abilities borrowed by the Life Player mode seed to co from the god associated with the “Deceit” belief—the Prisoner of Destiny.
He wondered if there was any connection between the two.
“Alright, you may pass,” the guard said, leaving the carriage and speaking to the coachman after getting a general idea of the passengers’ details.
Seeing this, Lynn let out a slight sigh of relief.
But before his heart could fully relax, a Transcendent of the military suddenly said coldly behind the guard, “That’s it? No wonder we’ve been unable to track down those two escapees until now. So it’s because of a bunch of good-for-nothing idiots like you!”
Since the two parties didn’t belong to the sa administrative system, the guard was clearly displeased.
But out of respect for the military officer’s rank, he could only say with an aggrieved expression, “If you could kindly use the appropriate Sealed Object to search, that would be even better.”
“Are you teaching how to do my job?!” the military Transcendent glared, “Additionally, detection-type Sealed Objects are extrely precious, already deployed at major checkpoints and passages. How could they be wasted here?!”
After berating the guards, the officer quickly stepped into the carriage.
Looking around, he suddenly asked, “Are you all couples?”
“Of course, officer,” the elderly husband said tremulously.
Seeing this, the officer expressionless, said, “In that case, please prove it to .”
