Chapter 409: Each
Mr. Gaston, who was always serious, showed such a look, which showed how eager he was to pass through the sixth floor, which made Abner a little embarrassed to mention that he had not actually come to him to say that he was "climbing the tower".
But it didn't work if he didn't say it, it was Abner who shook his head lightly and reminded the other party: "Mr. Gaston...... Didn't you say you'd go back in the evening? ”
"I'm sorry, but I'm in a hurry......" Mr. Gaston was stunned for a moment, then laughed at himself, and then adjusted his mood before asking in a calm tone, "What is the matter with you coming to me?" ”
"I'd like to buy your newly crafted greatsword that unleashes the 'Flame of Light'...... Well, I have a friend who needs it exactly. Abner didn't go around in circles, and directly explained his intentions.
Mr. Gaston gave him a few suspicious looks, and then asked him to follow him into the workshop as he said in an inexplicable tone, "That 'Light of Courage' is heavy, and even Miss Gwen must have struggled to use it, not to mention that she already has a sword that fits her hand. ”
What does that mean? What does Tigwin do? Did he think I bought the greatsword to give it to Gwen? Abner, who was following Gaston, couldn't help but be a little speechless, he had just gone to the restaurant for dinner with Gwen that night, could it be that there were some rumors coming out?
Moreover, he is not a straight man of steel, even if he gives a gift to a girl, how can he give an extraordinary sword?
Although he was slanderous in his heart, Abner, who knew that this kind of thing was always getting darker and darker, did not argue much on the surface, and only said "for my other friends" and then shut his mouth.
Mr. Gaston nodded, and without asking any more questions, he turned on the power core of the workshop, and controlled the mechanical arm to lift a large sword more than two meters long from the storage room.
"It's worth £600...... If it weren't for the fact that there were too few people who could use it, it would definitely sell for a better price. Mr. Gaston is actually quite satisfied with his work, and even if it has not been sold, he is willing to collect it himself, so he does not plan to reduce the price.
"Deal." Abner didn't ramble, he took out a large stack of bills from his bag and handed it over.
After Gaston confirmed the amount and authenticity of the gold pound, he smiled again and said with some teasingness: "Do you need me to help you carry this sword to your room?" ”
Abner naturally understood what Mr. Gaston was "connotating", and deeply felt that this old man looked like a meticulous scholar on the surface, but after getting acquainted, he had a different face......
He glanced at the other party, and instead of "simulating" the power of the living corpse, he recited the incantation in front of the other party, summoned the "Dream Gate", and then held the hilt of the sword, simulated the ability of the "Nightmare", and entered the "Dream Labyrinth Tower".
Mr. Gaston, who had wanted to see Abner's joke, saw this scene and his eyes widened in astonishment, and he froze in place.
Moments later, Abner "woke up" from his dream, and both the "Dream Gate" and the "Light of Courage" greatsword vanished.
"That was ...... 'Dream Gate' just now?" Mr. Gaston, who had come back to his senses, asked in a dreamy tone.
"That's right, that's just one of the privileges after passing through the fifth layer, and it's not worth mentioning." Abner said in a deliberately flat tone.
In front of people who like "Versailles", the taste of "Fan" is really good.
"The privilege of the fifth layer turns out to be this ......," Mr. Gaston sighed, and said in a complicated manner, "So, you have been freed from the restrictions of the underground dream entrance?" ”
"Yes...... Still, I will abide by our contract, and even if I take others into the 'Dream Labyrinth Tower' in the future, I will not tell them where your entrance is. Abner knew what the other party was worried about, and added, "Do we need to 'notarize' a new contract?" ”
Mr. Gaston waved his hand and said, "There is no need, I believe in your character." ”
……
Silver City, home of Derick Berg.
He walked around the table in silence several times, never making up his mind, his reason telling him that Mr. "The Hanged Man" was the best choice, but the faces of the other members of the mission always flashed in his mind, and he felt that he had turned his back on them by pretending to be out of control!
Duck...... Seamans ...... Rocco ...... They're all my friends......
Is there no way to save them?
Shall I find an opportunity to ask the Chief about the Half-Ruined Temple's belonging to the Fallen Creator and to the evil god who wields the Shepherd's pathway, and tell him to be careful of Elder Lovia and replace the person in charge of this mission...... But where do I know? In their eyes, Mr. "Fool" should also be equivalent to an evil god......
Darek clawed at his hair.
At that moment, a boundless gray mist appeared in front of his eyes, and then he saw the scene of Mr. "Tower" placing a large sword on the altar and asking for sacrifice.
Daerik! You can't hesitate any longer, even in order to live up to the trust of Mr. "Tower", Miss "Justice", and Miss "Magician", you can't have an accident at this time! Just like Mr. "The Hanged Man" said, you are not pretending to be out of control and deceiving others because you are selfish, you are here to keep your useful body and save Silver City!
After some mental construction, Deric finally made up his mind, but instead of rushing to consume his own spirituality, he held a ritual to obtain the great sword that was taller than him, and then carried it to the place he had agreed to find Antilna.
……
Inside the luxurious villa of the Earl of Hall.
In the studio, Audrey, who was leisurely smearing oil paint, had just sent off her mother, Countess Caitlin.
And the reason why the other party came to her was because someone recommended a psychology tutor for Audrey.
"Isrant...... "Audrey chewed on the name and asked Susie, the big dog crouching next to her, "What do you think?" ”
Susie looked to the left and right humanely, and when she saw that the maid Anne had gone out, she carefully shook the air and said, "This name was mentioned by your very serious friend before, and it is the person who followed you that night. ”
"I know...... She's a member of the 'Psychological Alchemy Society', so this is the official contact that came. Audrey replied with a smile.
"But, Audrey, I don't understand. Why would you want to reach out to the bad guys, that's dangerous. Susie asked, looking up.
"The reasons are complex...... Still, Susie, you're going to protect me, right? Audrey asked with a slight smile.
"Of course!" Susie replied in the affirmative.
Audrey narrowed her eyes in satisfaction and stroked Susie's head, who narrowed her eyes with the same satisfaction.
At this moment, Audrey's hand suddenly froze, and Susie tilted her head in confusion and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Audrey's face bloomed with a beautiful smile that made the room discolored, and she said excitedly: "Susie, I know how to become a 'psychiatrist'!" ”
Although Susie did not understand what her master was saying, she was infected by it, and wagged her tail in the same joy.
……
In the evening, Hugh, who had just returned from a mission at the bar, returned to his rented house in Jowood, and saw that the lights were still on in Forth's room, so he knocked on the door and asked:
"Why haven't you slept yet?"
As she spoke, she saw that Furth seemed to be writing something, so she stepped forward and glanced at it twice, and then said in surprise:
"Well, Firth, how did you become so diligent? Actually writing the beginning of a new book? The publisher has increased your remuneration? ”
"No, no, no." Fluce was stunned for a moment, quietly covered what he had written on a blank page of paper, and said with a smile, "I just received a message at the party, which is suspected to be a clue to the main ingredient of the 'Master of Tricks' potions. ”
I didn't lie to you, I received the news at the Tarot meeting.
"Really? No wonder you've become diligent...... Congratulations! The vacation outfit was completely unaware of Folth's hidden abnormality, and said with a smile.
Seeing his friend's happy appearance, Furth couldn't help but sigh secretly:
I have become a member of a secret organization, and I have to bear the burden of hiding and deceiving my friends at all times......
Is that one of the costs?
But you still have to cheat!
Thinking of this, Forth pretended to be embarrassed and said with difficulty: "That's it...... Can you lend me some money first? When the next manuscript fee arrives, I will pay you back immediately. ”
Hugh took a deep look at her, hiding the "devil" named "pleasure" in his heart, and nodded solemnly: "No problem.
"But you have to let me go with you to the party you said, lest you use it for illegal gambling."
"Huh?" Furth was so shocked that she almost threw the pen in her hand, and she said angrily and funny, "Do I look like the kind of person who would get involved in illegal gambling?" ”
"Like!" Hugh replied without hesitation, "If I hadn't stopped you, you wouldn't even have smoked cigarettes, and you still want to smoke marijuana!" ”
That's because the pain of the full moon whispering made me seek paralysis, which is not the case anymore...... Furth was stunned again, and finally she racked her brains to come up with a suitable excuse to convince Hugh that she was really going to buy the materials, and that she no longer asked to follow.
Back in his room, Hugh lay down on the bed, his shoulders shaking and laughing.
After a while, she restrained her smile, and said to herself as she reflected, "I wouldn't have been so embarrassed by Furth before...... Did I really learn badly with Abner? ”
……
As Hugh muttered about Abner, the latter and Mr. Gaston stepped between the rewards and entered the passage to the sixth level of the "Dream Labyrinth Tower".
