Chapter 43: The Lurkers in the Fleet

"You seem to be taking this ring on your hand very seriously." Adevina took the initiative to raise her question with Elle.

"As you can see, it's an extraordinary item with the extraordinary properties of the 'Shepherd' as its main material." She raised her hand so that Edvina could see more clearly, and between the whiteness of the skin, the inscribed crosses with a unique pattern of reversal were inscribed on it, and it was hard not to think of the Aurora Society, which believed in the true Creator.

"I used to come from a large landed aristocratic family in Rune, and I got it from the Aurora Society." Elle gently rubbed the Hanging Man statue on it and looked up with a smile.

"Everyone has their own secrets, doesn't ......"

"I'm just curious." Edwina explains, "My inspiration tells me that there is a very dangerous aura in it, like the pollution of evil gods, but it does not spread, but there is a tendency to be restrained. ”

Is it any wonder that Kersma asked me not to take it off before, using the power of the real creator to suppress the contamination of the suspected mother tree in my body?

Is the so-called "bound god" himself or the mother tree that controls him behind his back? Elle remembered that the son of the god who was forced to give birth to Siea, and felt that it was unlikely that the god who had been bound until then was whispering.

Adevina handed the black tea in her hand to Elle, ignoring her sudden silence, Elle smiled embarrassedly and took a sip of reddish-brown tea.

Well, with a faint scent of roses, is the taste of the Lieutenant General of the Iceberg very good? She suddenly felt groggy and fell into a warm embrace.

A strange silver-white illusory light suddenly flashed in the light blue eyes of the pirate general opposite, and behind her, a huge, illusory, scaleless giant snake slowly flowed head to tail.

She stepped forward slowly, gently removing the Aurora Society-style ring, her fingers running down Elle's smooth face to the back of her head to untie the bow tied with black ribbons.

……

Garrod Karp, Sequence 9 "The Fortune Teller", currently belongs to a group of pirates led by Elle Arista, and of course, he also has the blood of an ancient and glorious family.

Son of the Old Gods, King of Angels, descendant of Antigonus!

But now he looked a little strange, the door of the cabin was locked, and he knelt reverently on the ground, whispering the old ancient Hermetic language.

Suddenly, the ordinary-looking man stood up, shoved a crystal monocle that he had gotten out of nowhere, into the socket of his right eye, and pinched the socket very skillfully.

"Funny...... "An indescribable evil smile appeared on his lips, picking up the piece of paper on the table with the words of Ancient Hermes written on it, and slowly igniting it close to the candle flame.

"A hand that plays with time."

"Wander the shadow of fate."

"The ...... of Fraud and Mischief"

He pretended to be on his knees and prayed, and when he was sure everything was normal, he reopened the hatch.

……

In a basement chamber as large as a temple, Mr. A, dressed in a hooded black robe, sat on his knees in the darkness and whispered something reverently.

In front of him was a statue of nearly 3 meters, which was a person whose legs were tied by chains, connected to the upside down, with the vertical eyes of a giant, and his arms stretched out horizontally in a cross.

At this time, a man with a black robe came in and humbly said:

"Mr. A, I've passed the message on."

"Good." Mr. A said without turning his head.

The black-robed man asked suspiciously

"Why don't you let us investigate who commissioned this mission?"

Mr. A buried his head and spoke in an indifferent tone

"No, I don't."

"You must remember that this is a critical time."

"We want to make chaos on the continent, and we want to try to attract the attention of others in order to welcome the return of the Lord!"

"Hahaha, ahem, ahem......"

Mr. A suddenly laughed, and then coughed violently, coughing so much that he fell to the ground.

"Ahem!"

He coughed up blood-colored shards that squirmed as if they were alive when they landed.

The black-robed man immediately lowered his head, pretending not to see anything.

After a long time, Mr. A finally calmed down.

He crawled, his mouth pressed to the ground, licking back the blood-colored fragments he had just coughed up.

The man left the wide temple-like basement and looked down respectfully to the handsome man with one leg bent against the wall and a slender lady's cigarette between his fingers.

"Lord Dark Sage, Mr. A is still praying to the Lord, do you need me to go in and inform him?"

Kersma waved his hand at him, tasting the choking smell of tobacco to himself, while the man walked away with his head bowed in amusement, and just as he was about to step to the ground, he suddenly heard a sigh that seemed to be absent.

The man did not look back, but bowed down more humbly and quickly left the place.

……

16 New Year's Road, Hilston.

Klein carefully pondered what he should do next to complete his employer's commission to take a photo of the other party's husband cheating, when he saw the figure of the bodyguard lady in a black gothic court dress appear on a silver mirror in the room.

"Miss Sharon?" He looked at the delicate young lady with a small soft hat of the same color as her dress, and asked casually.

"Do you have a way to disguise the flash of the camera?"

He saw the figure in the silver mirror hesitated for a moment, and then the mirror rippled layer by layer, and a slightly transparent palm suddenly stretched out.

Sharon emerged from the silver mirror and walked up to Klein, without answering, slowly leaning over and blending into the lens of the camera.

Crane's mouth was slightly open, and it took a long time to recover from this terrifying scene, he first took a test shot, slowly waited for the arrival of the target, and carefully opened the door and hid in the cupboard while the woman in the room went to greet him.

Through his spiritual vision, he sighed at the luxurious life of the rich, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he watched the entanglement of purple, red, green, and orange aura, and his ears were full of gasps and low laughter of men and women in the room.

He sensed that something was slightly wrong with the camera in his hand, only for a very small moment, but Klein silently pushed open the cabinet door for the sake of the golden pound, waiting to capture the right footage.

"Indulge your desires, sink in ......them," Miss Sharon stares at the obscene image without any expression in the camera, and for a moment she suddenly remembered the dark green girl with long hair, representing for the first time the fiery gaze of the silver-haired girl when she saw her.

For the young "decryption scholar", she always felt that she couldn't say how to deal with it, perhaps because of fate or other occult reasons, she didn't want to be too alienated from her relatively straightforward and fiery feelings.

However, if you keep rejecting her so undirectly, once you sink into this feeling in the future, will you give up what you have always insisted on and become the same guy as those members of the indulgent faction?

It's just that she is now the liaison of the silver-haired girl Elle Arista, and will cooperate in hunting down members of the Indulgence Sect in the future, and may even rely on her to go to the spirit world to find her teacher.

Russell the Great once said that he sometimes wondered what emotions were that could make people forget the fear of life and death.

……

In the evening of the next day, still under Miss Sharon's protection, Klein planned to take advantage of her protection to get in touch with more of the Extraordinary, and after the divination, he put on a half-height silk top hat and carried a black silver-inlaid cane and spent 2 Soles on the "Brave Bar".

After passing through Caspars and spending a certain amount of money, and after waiting for about half an hour, he put on the same iron mask as last time and followed Caspars to the same place.

Aside from the change in the knocking sound, there is almost nothing different from the last time.

The cold wind that blew against his neck made him sure that Sharon had also entered the area without anyone noticing, but he soon discovered that Miss "Lover" with her distinctive silver mask was also attending the party.

The members of the party really don't have Sequence 5, and maybe even Sequence 6 is very few, but Miss "Lover", whether it's the tone of voice when she threatens me or when she gets along with Miss Sharon, reveals that she should have the strength to rival Sequence 5, is it a magical item given by the forces behind her?

"The black snake seems to have died in the sewers......" The pharmacist who showed half of his chubby face changed his sitting posture and quickly raised his hand to speak first.

The man suspected of being a member of the Aurora Society is dead? Crane was stunned to hear the news, and quickly remembered the movement in the depths of the sewers when Detective Zerell's body was found.

I don't know if there is a connection between the two......
