Beckland, a small two-story building.

Hugh, whose eyebrows seemed to have grown a lot, placed a mirror on the altar, began to recite incantations, and began to perform rituals.

After Dunn and Dalie's wedding, Hugh returns to the safe house she had prepared with Abner, who was waiting outside the church, and at the latter's request, began to summon "Arodes".

Hugh wasn't too afraid of the side effects of this secret technique right now, because her secret Abner knew almost everything, and there was nothing left to bring her out to disgrace again.

But to the surprise of the two, the secret technique failed, and Arodes did not descend into the mirror on the altar.

"What's going on? There should be no mistakes in the process...... "After trying a few times, there was still no result, so he frowned.

"It's not your problem...... It's that it doesn't want to come! Abner seemed to have guessed something, and said helplessly.

"Don't want to come?" Hugh looked at Abner and asked, puzzled.

"There are several possibilities...... First, we are so familiar that it may not feel like it can have fun with us, so it does not come.

"Second, it may know what I want you to ask, and it doesn't know the answer, or it knows but doesn't dare to say it...... So deliberately not to come.

"Thirdly, it is afraid of Mr. 'Fool' behind us, so it does not come...... But it's highly unlikely, as it has been summoned by you and Firth before. ”

Abner enumerated his guesses and finally sighed.

He was inclined to the second guess in his heart, thinking that "Licking the Dog Mirror" should not know much, after all, those special souls in the "God's Box" involved "essentia", even Lilith did not know, and he needed to investigate, even if Arodus had the ability of "insight" or even "omniscient eye", he would know at most part of it.

As for the survivors of the eleven-year-old experiment, it probably knows...... But judging from the fact that Bianca and Abby and others were not very taken seriously, that experiment should not have been very successful, and it was even likely to fail!

Ranwen

Gathering the five of them, figuring out the truth of the experiment, and restoring the hidden rituals may not make much practical sense...... But this is also a clue that needs to be traced.

Well, Klein was also very interested in this experiment, and since Arodes was unwilling to answer my question, he would let the "fool" ask it.

As soon as he thought of this, Abner no longer thought about taking shortcuts, but according to the original plan, he investigated from several directions such as the "Scourge Queen", the Delion family, the sea monster, and the survivors of the experiment.

"In this, the Delion family is involved in both Lilith's short-term mission and long-term mission related to the 'God's Box'...... It is the top priority, we must let this family decline as soon as possible, and then send Thelo to the throne...... Only then will it be possible to figure out what secrets they are hiding. ”

As his thoughts turned, Abner helped Hugh pack up his ritual supplies, and then chatted about their experiences during this time.

Abner skipped the different customs of the Intis Ball, focusing only on the political situation in Trier and the exploration of the ruins with Furth in Burney...... Of course, the message about Russell was also a word, and it was not elaborated.

Hugh only felt that Abner was always surrounded by all kinds of big events, although he easily resolved them, and even reaped the benefits of them...... But Hugh, who has matured a lot and knows more about the extraordinary world, still feels a little sorry for him...... After all, this feeling of being chased and persecuted by things is not so easy to bear.

She understands how it feels, and years ago, when she took her mother and brother around to avoid pursuing military personnel, she had had a similar pressure, so if she didn't move forward and didn't act, she could really be caught......

And Abner's pressure must have been greater than his anxiety at that time.

The importance of the gods, especially the importance of multiple gods at the same time, the pressure on him can be imagined!

But now I'm too weak to help him with it...... Even when encountering things, they still rely on him......

Even though he was about to finish digesting the "judge" potion, Hugh still let out such an exclamation.

However, Hugh also knew that her advance speed was actually very fast, and more than half a year ago, how could she dare to imagine that she was expected to become a Sequence 5 in less than a year?

After a little frustration, he calmed down and talked about what had happened in Beckland in the past month or so, such as the promulgation of air pollution-related bills, the introduction of relevant regulations on minimum guarantees and working hours, and the development of "film and television companies......

Especially the latter, with the promotion of free schools of the church, more and more cinemas have been established, and many people see business opportunities. It also purchased patents for projectors and video cameras, and formed a film and television company...... However, because the "Bryan Film and Television Company" has accumulated a lot of experience because it has shot a batch of "films" of good quality in advance, it is in an absolute advantage in this wave of competition.

"The silent comedies you suggest are so popular with the middle and lower classes that even working families are now willing to take a few pennies out into the cinema on weekends...... This has become a trend in Beckland and is gradually radiating to the surrounding cities.

"As for the sound films for the rich and noble, they were mostly adaptations of Russell's classics, or simply remakes of the existing famous operas, and they were also well received...... After all, the stage background of a traditional opera is nothing better than that of a live location.

"In addition, there are many aristocrats and entrepreneurs who tried to put their hands into our film and television company, but they were all blocked by Her Royal Highness Vera."

Hugh said this, and also sighed: "Once the theater line is laid all over the country, I think every time a successful film is released, the profit from receiving it will not be less...... No wonder so many people are red-eyed.

"But other film and television companies will catch up sooner or later, and our first-mover advantage may not be maintained for long."

Abner didn't care, but said: "There are more people entering the industry, and the formation of competition can make the industry more prosperous." ”

And he privately felt that with his vision and insight ahead of the times, unless Klein competed with him, it would be no problem to maintain the first-mover advantage for a few years.

And a few years later, he will no longer need this "film and television company".

Well, thanks to Elaine's efforts, the progress on Intis's side is similar, and when the film and television industries in these two countries are on the right track, they can be promoted to Vrsack, Fenerport, Lemberg, Marcy, and Segal.

When the time comes, let the countess help open up the market of Fursack, and ask the people of the Mother Earth God Church to promote it in Fenerport, and the three kingdoms of Lenburg will also be able to pray to the god of knowledge at that time...... are guaranteed and will not be embezzled at will......

Tsk, it's not that I don't know, such an inventory, it seems that I can speak in almost all countries in the Northern Continent now!

Although I can't interfere with the decision-making level yet, if I think about it, once I use my relationship with all my strength, the energy is definitely not small......

……

Monday afternoon, above the gray fog.

Crane propped his elbows on the armrests, and clasped his palms together as he watched as the crimson light lit up and faded into blurred figures.

Then he saw Miss "Justice" leading everyone to their feet, and greeted in a brisk tone:

"Good afternoon, Mr. 'Fool'~"

The "hermit" Gadelia, who had just experienced an "unforgettable" birthday, seemed to be in a trance, although she still remained calm on the surface.

It was only when I saw Miss "Justice" and Miss "Judgment" each take out Russell's diary, one to repay debts, and the other to accumulate contributions, that I came back to my senses, and I didn't dare to look directly at Mr. "Fool" carefully, but I still couldn't see more through the strange gray mist, and the dark purple eyes could only reflect the clothes that were definitely embodied.

Holding the three pages of Russell's diary, Klein didn't wait to read it as usual, after all, he had had so many small meetings with Mr. "Tower", and heard a lot of secret information from him, and he thought that no matter what Russell the Great wrote, it would be difficult for him to be too shocked.

"Unless he's like the image on the 'Witch Card', he was given the 'Witch Blessing' by a strong person with unique abilities and became ......a woman for a short time," Crane joked in his heart, looking around the long bronze table with interest.

Hey, the spirit of the "hermit" lady seems to be a little tired, and the curiosity she shows is not the same as that of the "justice" lady, and she seems to attach special importance to the matter of Russell's diary?

Crane withdrew his gaze, jotted down what he had just discovered, and then casually read the tawny parchment in his hand—a page from Miss Judgment.

"On the 1st of September, inspired by the last time I was transformed into a woman, I created an extraordinary object that could be transformed into a magic wand.

"As a magical item at the demigod level, it is powerful enough, and the only side effect is that it must be used by a man, and after using it, it will transform into a magical girl.

"On the 3rd of January, I ordered Count Bai Feng to set out in search of the last of the 'Prince of Killing' trait, and for his safety, I gave him a magic wand for self-defense."
