Chapter 1167: 1167
Kieran was following the stone dummy and soon reached a crossroad in one of the streets .
The place should be one of the main streets of the underground city and it should be wide but at the moment, the street was filled with all kinds of wood and stone remains .
A figure stood straight in the middle of the pile of remains and stared down at the dummy monsters with a cold gaze . A quick move of his body later, the dummy monsters before the figure were kicked to pieces .
As the remains of the dummy monsters flew, the crow feathered mantle was fluttering loudly .
Kieran who was in the shadows saw "himself" further away, he couldn't help but smile coldly to himself .
"As I expected . "
If an imposter of Great Swamp appeared to deceive him, then, where did the real Great Swamp go?
As the owner of Flame City, Great Swamp's powers were undisputed compared to Forest, Leaf and Many City, they weren't on the same level to begin with .
However, in the current dungeon world, obviously there was some other higher existence who could triumph over Great Swamp but to make him disappear without a sign, especially when he was still in Flame City, it was nearly impossible .
Obviously, the problem wasn't solvable with battle, thus only one option was left—deceit .
Since the enemy could create an identical Great Swamp, why couldn't they create an identical Kieran?
Other than that, the creator behind the imposters seemed to spend quite a lot of effort on Imposter Kieran to better deceive Great Swamp . At least his imposter wasn't strong on the outside but weak on the inside like Imposter Great Swamp .
How did the enemy do it though?
Kieran had no idea how the enemy created an imposter who was exactly the same as the original—despite no longer being a newbie, he dared not claim that he understood all the secrets of the dungeon world, even more so when the Gods were involved, some impossible matters became possible .
However, Kieran had speculations about how the enemy grasped the differences in time .
The phone call!
Great Swamp's phone was tapped!
The enemy used the phone call to grasp Great Swamp and Kieran's movements and perfectly utilized the differences in time . Also, the enemy diverted Great Swamp away before they started their next move .
"A smart fella I see," Kieran commented . Still, it didn't stop him from making his move .
Sou!
He dashed out from the shadows and when he stopped, he was already behind his imposter .
Throughout the process, the imposter had no reaction to what happened, even the expression on the imposter's face didn't change .
Bang!
The imposter's body fell to the ground after a kick .
The body then rapidly turned translucent like a bubble before popping into thin air, leaving behind an orange glowing item .
It wasn't an equipment drop though but it fell off from the imposter's pocket .
It was a gold bangle etched with a snake scale pattern, which presented itself with a bluish-green color .

… . . .
After he saw the details of the bangle, Kieran's lips curled into a profound smile before he turned around and sprinted further away .
It wasn't a blind sprint though, with the traces from the imposter, it was very easy for him to locate the real Great Swamp .
Soon, a courtyard entered his sight .
White walls, black tiles, and lanterns all over .
Kieran was slightly surprised when he saw the light from the lantern not reaching more than 3 meters away from the structure .
