After reaching an agreement with Prince Philip, Leo did not stay in the attic room any longer, nor did he intend to participate in their negotiations with Duke Derwin, so he left the attic decisively, and took the Book of Night with him by the way.

Rupert Fitz doesn't seem to care about Leo taking his pay before he completes his mission, or more accurately, he doesn't care about the gains or losses of Book of Nightfall.

When he took the Book of Nightfall, Leo felt that Rupert Fitz was more relieved, and the whole person seemed to be much more relaxed.

It wasn't Leo's delusion, but Leo's vision saw a cold black aura emanating from Rupert Fitz, and this aura gathered back in him.

"Cursed?" Leo felt the psionic energy seeping into his body, burrowing into the bone marrow, and couldn't help but frown and smile again.

Compared to five days ago, Leo at this time already has a deep understanding of the occult of this world, and with the support of a large amount of information in the auxiliary brain database, he does not dare to say that he is the person in the world who knows all kinds of mysterious knowledge in the dark world, but it is definitely not much worse than the person who specializes in the knowledge of the dark world in the Persona Society.

The moment he felt that black spiritual power infiltrating into his body, Leo almost didn't need to use his subbrain to call up the relevant information, he could already easily determine what this black power was, and he also knew the source of this power.

He was not worried about the damage that this spiritual power would do to him, but rather looked forward to the effect that this power could have, so that he could experience the effects of this magical power first-hand and study its mysteries.

After reading a lot of occult materials, Leo knew that there were many more types of psionic powers called magic in this world than those of the Earth Federation, and that there were as many as eight types of magical powers counted by the Persona Society, and perhaps more than those that were not.

The spiritual energy of the Earth Federation is mainly controlled and destroyed, for example, the spiritual network and the spiritual chain are to control the psionic energy, the psionic wave and the heavy impact of psionic energy are the destruction of psionic energy, and the scope and power are the goals pursued by the psionic people of the Earth Federation and other races in the universe.

However, this world prefers to divide the psionic energy called magic in a very detailed way, in addition to the spiritual energy such as destruction and control that the Earth Federation already has, there are also various other psionic abilities with different effects, such as curse, healing, protection, etc.

In addition, power and range are not the main pursuits of the psychics in this world, and control is the most frequently mentioned word in all occult books about magic, and almost all books related to magic, including wizard notes, constantly emphasize that uncontrolled magic can be fatal to the user.

Of all the magic powers, the most difficult to control is the curse, and a book dedicated to curses has been mentioned more than once that anyone who uses cursed witchcraft to curse others is also harmed by the power of the curse, and the final result of each story in the book is that neither the cursed nor the cursed end will end well.

In the old Earth era of the Earth Federation, there were many stories about curses, but the Earth Federation has proven that the power of curses actually does not exist.

So when Leo was determined from the book that this world had this magic called curse, he was curious about this power, and now he could feel that this cursed spiritual energy was infiltrating his body little by little, and his heart was more excited than afraid.

At this time, Leo directly activated the three psionic skills of mechanical will, perfect control and psionic vision, so that his control and observation of psionic energy reached the limit of this stage.

It's just that he didn't control the power of his psionic energy to drive out the curse, but just observed from the sidelines, allowing the power of the curse to seep in, gradually attaching to his bones, forming the same Turing roots.

At the moment when the Turing root was formed, Leo felt that a spiritual energy that had never existed before was generated in his brain, and these spiritual energy penetrated into some nerve cells in his brain and merged with it, becoming a part of his brain.

"Dream factor?" This situation reminded Leo of a hypothesis of the Earth Federation.

Scientists who are also psychic people have proposed that the reason why humans dream is that some nerve cells in the cerebral cortex are infected by some psionic energy, and passively connect the human spirit with a certain dream subspace, and finally produce dreams, and the people who put forward this hypothesis call this psychic energy the dream factor.

"What's wrong with you? Do they make any embarrassing requests?" At this time, Wayne Thomas, the ambassador of the Kingdom of England to Miria, who had been waiting in the cloister, saw Leo coming out of the room, his face was a little solemn, and he couldn't help but greet him and asked.

At this time, after discovering that the cursed psionic energy had ceased to be active, Leo also disarmed all kinds of psionic skills, returned to normal, and responded: "They just asked me to solve one person, the commander of the First Legion of the French Empire, in front of the police headquarters in Miria City tomorrow." ”

"What? You were asked to assassinate the commander of the First Legion in front of the police headquarters?" After hearing Leo's narration, Wayne Thomas couldn't help but show a puzzled look, and asked in a deep voice, "Is it possible that someone will find out during your assassination?"

"Why do you ask?" Leo wondered.

Wayne Thomas said with a serious expression: "Recently, the kingdom is preparing to negotiate peace with Duke Derwin, if you assassinate the commander of the First Legion at this time and are discovered, I am afraid it will be unfavorable to the peace talks." ”

"Peace talks?" Leo was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but sneer: "I'm curious, in the eyes of those nobles of the kingdom, what are those soldiers who died in Breteuil, are they toy soldiers that can be discarded at any time?"

Hearing Leo's words, Wayne Thomas did not refute, in fact, when he got the news, he also felt the same atmosphere, but more also felt helpless.

Wayne Thomas was silent for a moment and said: "Three days ago, Duke Devon leased fifty Velon-class warships from the Kingdom of Sigmar, and with the fleet of the French Empire itself, the waters around the port of Venaya have been blocked, and the seventh, ninth and thirteenth legions of the French Empire on the ground have blocked all the passages on land, and now more than 100,000 English soldiers are trapped in the port of Venaya, if it were you, what would you do?"

Leo replied coldly, "If it were me, I would not have started such an inexplicable war, at least not without preparation. ”

Wayne Thomas chuckled a little sarcastically, and said, "Don't say it so reasonably, it's because you didn't sit in that chair at all, and when you sit up, you'll realize how childish what you said today." ”

"Don't you two think your current conversation is ridiculous?" Anne stood beside them and said with a smile: "A marginal politician who has been thrown into an enemy country, a low-level soldier who is nothing, is now arguing about such a completely incompetent state affairs, even I feel a little absurd when I listen to it?"

Leo was stunned when he heard what Anne said, feeling that he seemed to see himself more and more as an Inger, and couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly, and Wayne Thomas showed the same self-deprecating smile.

Leo quickly put away his smile, thought about Wayne Thomas's words, was silent for a moment, and then asked Wayne Thomas: "Your Excellency, Ambassador, please give me the information about the First Legion outside the city later, and the information of the commander of the First Legion is as detailed as possible, it would be best to have a camp map." ”

"What are you going to do?" Wayne Thomas was stunned, and when he heard the meaning of Leo's words, it seemed that he did not intend to settle the commander of the First Legion in front of the public tomorrow as Prince Philip requested, but had other ideas.

"You just need to send us the information, and don't ask about anything else. Leo didn't explain, turned to Anne, and asked, "What about Jason?" ”

Anne immediately replied, "They are now placed in the Stone Palace, which is safer than here, and I will take you to meet them!"

With that, Anne led Leo out of the red house and towards the stone palace not far away.

On the way, Leo opened the spiritual net, probing the surrounding situation, and soon a large amount of information was fed back to his retina, seeing this data information, he frowned, walked to Anne's side, and asked in a deep voice, "Do you know who assigned the person who attacked you?"

"I don't know!" Anne shook her head and said, "We thought it was Rupert, but he didn't admit that he did it, and Rupert disdained to lie about such a thing." Why did you ask this question all of a sudden?" As she spoke, she immediately became alert, looked around without moving, and said, "Is there danger around?"

"It's just eyes and ears. Leo identified the location of the nearest ear and eye to him, and motioned to Anne, who cooperated with him to cover up, hooked his arm, and turned and walked to a women's cosmetics store.

Then, when Anne was choosing cosmetics, he used the excuse of going to the toilet, climbed over the high wall directly from the small courtyard behind the store, attached the spiritual energy to the soles of his feet, and silently stepped on the red tiles of the roof to the second floor of a house not far from the cosmetics store.

After standing at the window for a while, he saw Leo suddenly push open the window and jump directly into the room on the second floor of this house, and before the other party had time to make any warnings, he held an old man who was monitoring the red house in his hand, and directly cast a spiritistic spell, and put the spirit chain into the other party's brain to absorb the information in his head.

A large amount of information is ingested from the other party's brain, absorbed and archived by the auxiliary brain system, and when the extracted information becomes chaotic and broken, Leo stops the spiritism, allowing the spiritual chain to dissipate naturally, and the old man whose memory is extracted by him has become demented without exception.

As Leo expected, the old man was indeed a secret agent, and he was also a leader of a high status, but he was a little surprised that these agents were not agents of the enemy country of France, nor were they agents of the Kingdom of England, but agents of the Kingdom of Mares.

Since the psionic energy has reached the third level, the psionic control talent has also been increased to the third level, so that the effect of spiritism has also been improved, and the extracted memories are no longer chaotic fragments, but relatively complete memories, which also saves the time for the auxiliary brain system to sort out and analyze the memories, and the moment he returned to the store, the memory of the spy has been completely sorted out.

Through these memories, Leo learns that this agent is a small leader in the Miria region of the Black Men organization of the Mares Kingdom, and controls a part of the Mares Kingdom agents in Miria City.

The last time they attacked the Red House was not Duke Devon or Rupert's people, but the people of the Mares Kingdom, and the reason was not because of what was happening in the French Empire now, but because of the flintlock cannon in Jason's hand.

The Kingdom of Mares has always been very fond of gunpowder weapons, and the world's first formed gunpowder and firearms army in Veron came from the Kingdom of Mares, and the first artillery army composed of special gunpowder also came from this country, and it is rumored that this country has begun to improve newer gunpowder but the results are unknown, in short, this country has an unusual obsession with any kind of gunpowder weapon.

When Jason was in the Red House to maintain the flintlock cannons he had on hand and test-fired a few shots, he was inadvertently seen by officers passing by the embassy of the Kingdom of Mares, which aroused the interest of the Kingdom of Mares, and then set off a series of events.

The reason why the Men in Black organization still sends spies to monitor the red house is because they found that Wayne Thomas, the ambassador of the Kingdom of England, suddenly visited the house, and there were some unknown people around the house.

There have been some conflicts between the Men in Black organization and the people of these forces, not only did they not gain the upper hand, but they lost some manpower, so the curious Men in Black organization sent people to continue to monitor this place in order to find some useful intelligence information.

After leaving the cosmetics store with Anne, Leo told Anne some of the things he had just discovered, and Anne was a little surprised when she heard this, she and Leo thought that the attackers were either Rupert's people or Duke Derwin's people, and they didn't expect that they were related to the Kingdom of Mares.

"Nelson and Jason, they're in trouble at the Boulder Palace right now?" Leo asked in a deep voice as he quickened his pace.

Anne shook her head and said, "There shouldn't be any trouble, the church of the King of the Hill and the Kingdom of Mares are not one, and the church does not need to obey the orders of the Kingdom of Mares. Coupled with the fact that Nelson and Catherine have recently sorted out the world's first set of battlefield emergency care manuals, and the medical school and medical association have decided to award the Sevenleaf Clover Medal, the highest level, and the Kingdom of Maris should not have any unfavorable actions against them, at most they will just find an excuse to take Jason's weapon away and make measurements and maps. ”

As the two spoke, they soon came to the main entrance of the Monolithic Palace.
