Chapter 160: Seizing the Opportunity (3rd Recommendation Ticket)
On Tuesday morning, Klein, who had finished his occult class, did not find a quiet place to look through internal materials such as "Comparison of Ancient and Modern Names" and "Night Watch Casebook" as before, but stayed in the recreation room and played cards with Leonard, Kornley, and Luo Yao.
I just asked Mr. Azik to create a chance to bring out the seal "3-0782...... Whether I can grasp this opportunity or not depends on my own on-the-spot performance...... Crane's mind was completely lost at the poker table, so much so that he missed a series of mistakes, losing 5 Soules in an hour, and he was quite distressed by the loss, and he planned to focus on it first and make up for some losses.
- Yesterday afternoon, after purchasing the materials for the "Sun Flame Charm", his private house money was again reduced to less than 1 pound, and this had to pay for the rental carriage of 2 soles a day to check the house with the dark red chimney.
While waiting for Kornley to shuffle the cards, he boredly picked up the copper penny in front of him and spun it around.
Suddenly, he saw Luo Yao staring at him, staring very seriously.
What's wrong? Crane was stunned for a moment, then saw the crumbling bronze penny.
...... Is this a warning that I am cheating by divination? teammates don't have to be so serious when they play cards...... He understood instantly, and smiled dryly and pressed down on the one-pence coin.
Just then, Dunn Smith knocked on the door and entered, looked around and said:
"There's something going on in Morse Town, Leonard, you go and deal with it. β
Morse Town?Klein perked up and asked pretending to be curious:
"Captain, what's going on?"
Dunn's gray eyes swept and explained casually:
"In recent days, there have been several suspected hauntings there, first when someone was passing by the cemetery, he heard crying and saw vague shadows flashing, and then, a widow woke up in the middle of the night on the way to the bathroom, met her deceased husband, and almost fainted, and there was also an old man who lived alone, who always heard heavy footsteps echoing in the house, but as soon as he lit a candle or a gas lamp, everything was quiet again, and the inhabitants of this town generally believed in the goddess, and the local priest directly reported the situationγ β
Didn't hurt, closer to a prank...... It must have been made by Mr. Azik...... Klein said with a rehearsed expression and tone: "Captain, there may be some secrets behind the sudden occurrence of several suspected haunted things, and in this regard, divination can give some enlightenment, and I think I can help Leonard." β
Hearing this, Leonard's green eyes immediately stared at Klein, as if he wanted to find clues and traces from the other party's face.
Dunn bowed his head, then hesitated.
Seeing the captain's reaction, Klein immediately added:
"Something that comes to the end may require ritual magic to purify completely. β
"Makes sense. Dunn thought for a moment and said, "Then you go to Morse Town with Leonard." β
Without waiting for others to speak, he added to himself: "Well, you shouldn't be able to catch up with your afternoon combat practice, I'll find someone to inform Gao Wen." β
Whew, the first step is complete...... Klein exhaled to himself and quickly picked up the Surle and pennies in front of him.
Halfway through, his movements suddenly froze, he looked sideways at Dunn, and said solemnly:
"Captain, I think we have to guard against the worst, if there is a powerful ghost behind the haunting, Leonard and I alone will be very dangerous, and the city of Tingen to the town of Morse will take two, uh, three hours, right? Even if we send a telegram in time for help, we will have to hold out for a long time......"
"So?" said Dunn, interrupting his description.
"I want to have another team-mate to help me. Crane pretended to be thoughtful, "And, according to the regulations, three or more night watchers can apply for the use of 'Level 3' seals, well, '3-0782' is the best way to solve this problem." β
Hearing this, Leonard next to him laughed and said:
"That's really your style, be cautious, be careful, never take risks. β
You seem to be saying that I am cowardly...... I've looked directly at the "Eternal Sun"! Klein pretended not to hear Leonard's words, and looked at Dunn Smith sincerely:
"Captain, what is your opinion?"
"You really have to prevent accidents, there are too many coincidences that have happened recently......" Dunn nodded as if he was thinking, glanced at the other two team members and said, "Kornley, you go to Morse Town with Leonard and Crane, uh, you quickly draw up an application, and after I sign it, go to the back of Chanis Gate and take out the seal '3-0782'." β
"Okay. The modest Kornley put down the cards in his hand.
Okay!" Klein clenched his fists in his heart and cheered, but on the surface he looked uneasy, cautious and solemn.
At this moment, Siga Teon is monitoring Hood Eugen in the Asylum, and Frye is on duty at Chanisgate.
Out of the recreation room, Crane put on a black tuxedo, grabbed his hat and cane, and waited with Leonard at the entrance of the staircase that led to the ground.
There was no one around, quiet and deserted, Leonard suddenly looked sideways at Klein and said:
"I think you'd better give up your illusions that aren't realistic. β
"Ah...... What?" Klein replied blankly.
Leonard stepped forward, stood on the edge of the stairs, and looked down into the depths below:
"Even in the mission, you can't discover my secrets and understand what makes me special. β
...... Classmates, don't be so narcissistic...... So you think I took the initiative to apply for this mission to secretly observe you? I didn't think of this at all! Klein was stunned at first, and then heyed:
"How can you be sure that my special will not help me discover your secret?"
Leonard's expression became a little solemn, but he immediately smiled and said:
"Really, I'll wait for you to find out. β
When I gather more information and items, I'll go to the gray mist and help you do a divination, no thanks!" Klein replied with a belly scold.
It wasn't long before the short, sturdy Kornley appeared on the winding staircase with the "Mutated Sun Emblem".
Feeling that unique warmth and purity, Crane quietly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had finally completed the initial and most difficult step in his plan to steal the divine blood power of the Eternal Sun.
Then, the group of three left the Black Thorn Security Company and came to Zotland Street, where they walked to the carriage belonging to the Night Watch Squad.
β...... The purification effect doesn't affect the horses, does it?" Kornley asked suddenly, a little uneasy, "I don't want the horse-drawn cart to be ...... that only 'praises the sun'"
He had only been a night watchman for more years than Klein, and his experience was far from abundant.
"No, the seal '3-0782' only purifies creatures with higher intelligence. Crane replied in a low voice.
If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have been bitten by mosquitoes...... He added inwardly.
"I see...... Hehe, I didn't look at the information carefully enough. Kornley pressed his black top hat and smiled.
Because Klein had not yet mastered the skill of driving the carriage, he spent the next three hours sitting in the carriage, rubbing the seal "3-0782" in his palm, while leisurely watching Leonard and Kornley take turns driving.
At lunchtime, they finally arrived in the small town of Morse.
"It's beautiful...... Kornley stepped out of the carriage and looked at the endless golden wheat fields around the town, and exclaimed heartily.
The date symbolizing the "volcano sign" is coming to an end, and the "harvest sign" is about to dominate everyone's life.
Leonard stood in the driver's place, looking around, his mouth open, as if he wanted to make a sonnet for the occasion.
But in the end, he only held back one sentence:
"It's beautiful. β
Crane couldn't help but laugh, put on his top hat, grabbed his cane, and stepped out of the carriage.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a black priest's uniform walked over and drew a crimson moon on his chest:
"Praise be to the Goddess, are you friends sent by the Church of St. Selena to help us?"
"Yes, Priest Sel, may the Goddess bless you. Leonard jumped out of the carriage and responded with a smile, "We're here to deal with the last few haunted incidents. β
"Suspicious, suspicious. The gray-haired and blue-eyed Sair saw many townspeople approaching, and hurriedly emphasized.
Morse is not a big town, and no matter which direction you go, you can enter the plain in ten minutes at most, and it is difficult for the people who live here not to know each other, and what happened before has been spread openly and secretly.
Therefore, many townspeople who were eagerly waiting for the Church of the Night Goddess to send someone to solve the problem gathered around them with curiosity and concern as soon as they saw the priest greeting the three strangers, some standing on tiptoe, some trying to listen.
Leonard chuckled and said:
"Rest assured, priest, we are professionals, you see, we have brought holy water, silver daggers, dark emblems, and garlic. β
As he spoke, he magically pulled out the described item from the inside pocket of his clothes.
Are you trying to smoke the ghost with a pungent taste? Crane watched Leonard's performance angrily and amusefully.
Sair looked confused, and even began to wonder if the Church of St. Selena had found a group of scammers.
The onlookers smiled with relief, as if they had finally been rescued.
Leonard approached Priest Selle and whispered in his ear:
"And they believed these ......"
Without waiting for the other party to come back to his senses, he added:
"We'll go to church first and settle lunch first, and then we'll deal with those incidents. β
Yes, lunch is important...... When I finish dealing with those "supernatural events", that is, when I rotate to guard the seal "3-0782", it will be my chance to make the "Yang Yan Charm...... Hopefully...... "Sunfire Charm" will have to be made during the day to achieve the best results...... Crane thought expectantly from the side.
