Before Carol had erased Eudora's memories and re-escaped into the depths of her spirit, Glerint weighed it and asked her to help him record 2 "Guardian Walls" and 3 "Thefts", occupying 5 mid-sequence level skill slots - not much, he only prepared the consumption of one battle.

……

After seeing off the confused, glazed-looking Eudora, Greint received a briefing from Darnell before he had time to eat lunch or study his newfound extraordinary means:

"On June 18, I went to the headquarters to prepare to participate in the semi-annual meeting on behalf of the Verteck branch."

The "headquarters" here refers of course to the Southern Continental Division of MI9.

"The 18th? Isn't that the day after tomorrow? ”

"On behalf of the Verteck Division?"

Glerint chewed on the other party's words, vaguely grasping the subtle attitude of the upper echelons, but a little uncertain.

"They can't have the idea for me to lead the Valterk, do they?"

Now the situation in the Vulteke branch of MI9 is as follows:

Morgan in Sequence 6 is made into a master puppet by Walter and is missing; Athena in Sequence 7 was killed by Walter, and Marcus in Sequence 7 was killed in the last skirmish. Only Glalint and Jon Childe in Sequence 8 remained, and Joan and Mick in Sequence 9, for a total of two or three kittens in the lower sequence.

At the same time, the most valuable seals were taken away by Walter.

And among the rest, the person with the highest status and military rank is undoubtedly the only one left with Greinte. Of course, his sequence level is the biggest problem, and on the surface he is just a sequence 8 "barbarian". However, Darnell and Basel, who knew that he held the "Chain of Secret Magic", might not have made such a decision?

After thinking about it for a while, Glerint didn't get a clear result, so he had to give up.

"It's useless to think too much, let's go over tomorrow in advance to see the situation."

After enjoying a lunch of Northern Continent specialties prepared by the servant, Glerint began to return to his room to study the newly acquired "Chain of Trickery" and the Secret Puppet, as for the extraordinary characteristics of the "Wraith" and the "Oath of Justice", which were already very familiar to Gleilint.

……

After some research, Gleilynt grasped the extraordinary ability of the "chain of trickery":

Unlike the first bracelet he obtained, it almost completely preserved the extraordinary abilities of the "Mystic Mage".

The "Chain of Trickery" is simplified, and only retains one core extraordinary ability, which is "Manipulating the Spirit Line". Of course, after reaching the Sage level, this extraordinary ability has actually undergone a qualitative change, including things like "transposition" and "giving the secret puppet his extraordinary ability" are all achieved by manipulating the spirit thread.

Interestingly, Glerint himself, who holds the "Chain of Sophistry", is not able to cast those abilities because this magical item does not retain the strange and numerous spells of the "Sorcerer".

On the contrary, it is a secret puppet, because the strange extraordinary abilities corresponding to the "sophist" will not disappear in essence, so Gleilint can give them those abilities, but the essence of this extraordinary ability is to achieve the purpose of allowing the secret puppet to use the ontological ability by giving the "spirit worm", and the "chain of trickery" is a seal, and does not have the ability to produce new "spirit worms", so the spirit worms in it can be regarded as one less than one, but they must be recovered in time, otherwise they will be permanently missing.

There are only 17 Spirit Worms left in it.

If the original spirit worm in the "Chain of Trickery" is completely consumed, then it will only be left with two functions: controlling the secret puppet and transposing.

On the other side, let's take a look at Morgan, the secret puppet, who is now wearing Alister's face.

He was originally the same Sequence 6 "Baron of Corruption" as Glerinte, but was "demonized" by him after overdrinking the burgundy liquid in "Syra's Drinking Bottle". According to the law of "conservation of extraordinary characteristics", the extraordinary characteristics of the "Apostle of Desire" that were originally contained in the "2" level seal are equivalent to being eaten raw by him.

Fortunately, he is just a dead thing, and there is no possibility of "out of control".

"It is equivalent to making the object of 'Secret Couple' fuse with the extraordinary characteristics of 'Apostle of Desire', and become a state of half-seal and half-secret puppet."

Glerint nodded thoughtfully.

Among them, the part of the extraordinary ability that belongs to his secret couple, that is, the extraordinary ability of the "corrupt baron", all of which Glerint can use through the "chain of trickery".

But the part of the ability that belongs to his seal is not completely controllable, and only 3 are retained.

"Filthy Words - 'Slow' and 'Dead'", these are two extraordinary abilities.

There is also the "Desire Incarnation", which can transform the body into an illusory viscous black liquid condensed by various emotions and desires, which can be used to avoid damage and affect enemies.

Interestingly, as a seal, he also has a corresponding negative effect, that is, when he uses extraordinary abilities, whether it is himself or his enemies, they will be eroded by the extremely powerful abyssal aura, and his emotions and desires will be amplified to the extreme, and he will begin to fall.

However, this negative effect is completely beneficial to Glerint, because he uses the seal of "Morgan" through the "Chain of Trickery", so this abyssal aura will indeed erode over, but it is only the "Chain of Trickery" that bears it, not Glerin himself.

The only thing to worry about is that "Filthy Whisper - Slow" is an area-of-effect ability that is slowed down within range, as well as being corrupted by the Abyssal Aura.

——————————————————————————

The next day, in the morning.

Glerint woke up early this morning to find that Eudora had disappeared.

"I don't know if I secretly received the news from the Esoteric Society and left by myself, or if I was taken away by the other party's demigods."

He muttered, praying in his heart that the truth was the former. If it's the latter, it means that you're already in the other person's sight, although it may only be the least important.

"But Carol didn't tell me...... Does this mean that the truth should be the latter? ”

If it was only Eudora who left on her own, she would have reminded herself that only when the high-ranking extraordinary person was next to her, she would not dare to make a small move, and she would not dare to inform Glerint.

……

After breakfast, Glerint grabbed Morgan's shoulder with one hand, and his figure quickly faded, and he escaped into the spirit realm—this is not a good thing, you have to take it with you wherever you go, and you can't go too far. Fortunately, Glerint had already used Sequence 4 level "transformation" to deal with his appearance before, and it was better to fool others.

Bloomings Street, MI9's Southern Continental headquarters.

Glerint hadn't been here in a while, and was a little unfamiliar for a while.

Fortunately, the guard on duty seemed to have seen him before, and just checked his documents briefly and let him in, without letting him say anything. Gleilint can't pronounce the slogan now, the slogan of MI9 changes at any time, and he does not know what the slogan used by the headquarters has been used recently.

He was supposed to come over tomorrow and be brought in by Buck.

……

Darnell was not surprised by Glerint's early arrival, and that is the meaning of his vague wording. I saw that he was still wearing the olive green army general's uniform, and it seemed that he would never change.

"It's good that you came here today, I have something to tell you in advance."

He glanced at Alister next to Glerint, and did not open his mouth for Glerint to drive him away, but said bluntly:

"It's a confidential matter, let's go inside and talk about it in detail."

Inside.

Darnell pinched his delicate mustache and took the initiative before Gleilynt could ask:

"Although there is no leader in Valterk for the time being, and no one has submitted a report, His Excellency and I can basically guess the situation there."

He paused, as if he was guessing at the situation, as he said, and as if organizing the language:

"You probably don't know that the Morgan you see is actually an intis spy Walter, a 'master puppet' in disguise.

Yes, he's the one who killed your father four years ago. ”

"What?"

Glerint's eyes showed a hint of surprise and restrained anger as he clenched his fists and said nothing.

He knew that one day Darnell would tell him the truth!

His reaction was completely expected by Darnell, so he was not surprised and continued:

"Well, while I understand your anger very well, I still hope that you can put your hatred aside for a moment and bring your reason back to think."

Glerint exhaled slightly, released his clenched fists, and spoke in a hoarse voice:

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Lieutenant General, I lost my temper, please continue."

Darnell nodded and continued:

"The series of missions we asked you to cooperate with before were actually hoping to lure out the demigods behind him through Walter and kill them. Our plan went very well, and just yesterday, we managed to eliminate one of the other party's demigods, and also allowed Calvin to be promoted to a Sage.

The only downside was that we let Walter escape.

I think he should have fled back to West Byrand with most of the seals we had contained in Verteck by now, using the 'guiding lantern'. ”

After briefly recounting the current situation to Glerint, Darnell threw out what he wanted to talk to him about in advance.

He knocked on the table and said pointedly:

"Now Your Excellency the Admiral is asking me to send additional men to Verteck, transfer 'Level 2' seals, and submit a list of people who can lead the team and their reasons. Based on your situation, preliminarily, I intend to send 2 additional Sequence 7 Extraordinaires and 2 '2' seals.

As for the team leader, in my opinion, whether it is identity, military position or strength, you are actually the most suitable person.

The only thing to worry about is that although you have enough strength with the 'Chain of Arcane Magic', that is not a reason to convince the other two Extraordinary Beings on the surface.

After all, you're not yet a 'bribe-taker'. ”

Glerint was stunned for a moment by the sound of a clattering knock on the table, and he heard Darnell's words outside the strings.

The point is not whether you are Sequence Seven or not, but whether you are a bribe-taker.
