Chapter 228: Who's the Clown
"It's a mask, and when you wear it, you become extremely calm, free from emotional ups and downs, and at the same time gain great resilience. Exaggerated speed and great strength, and mastery of a certain amount of dark magic and primordial curses."
"The downside is that with more use, the wearer becomes less human, more and more ruthless, and eventually sees himself as a god."
It sounds like an enhanced "cold-blooded" or a "serial killer...... Roman listened, thinking to himself.
Alger the Hanged Man also had no intention of communicating alone, and if a member of the Tarot Society was interested in it, he might be able to raise the price, after all, for Alger, although he was a privateer captain with a certain amount of self-limitation.
But all his actions were under the supervision of the Church, and the sailors were to receive a share of the gold pounds, and each captured ship and artillery was also the property of the Church.
There wasn't much that really belonged to him, and the £2,000 would take some time to raise, and once the £2,000 was paid, his financial situation would be quite tight.
So he described in detail what the object does, hoping to arouse the interest of others.
It's a pity that Roman naturally doesn't need this kind of low-sequence magical item at all.
Miss Justice's current financial situation is not particularly good, and she still has a large amount of arrears that she has not yet paid.
The world in which the sun is located cannot provide gold pounds, and his current situation cannot provide the transaction of materials.
And the magician Furth ...... Never mind.
In short, this extraordinary item did not arouse the interest of any Tarot members, and as for Mr. Fool himself, he was not interested in this extraordinary item with strong negative effects and did not match his fighting style, and he still wanted the 2,000 pounds.
For Crane, this extraordinary item has the disadvantage of aggravating his ruthless character above the gray mist, after all, his current "persona" above the gray fog is the great existence of resurrection, a suspected "old god".
The negative effects of this mask made Klein choose to give up, and he controlled the "world" and said:
"I choose 2,000 pounds."
Roman watched from the sidelines as the aching hanged man came to an agreement with the world in the presence of Mr. Fool.
What will the poor tarot be......
Roman couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Even the richest man now is probably Roman himself.
The only rich lady, Miss Justice, is not in a good financial situation at present, and perhaps it will not be until next year, when she is officially an adult and can get the right to dispose of a part of her property, that she will be able to raise funds and buy goods more secretly.
This also dispelled Roman's previous desire to take out the pocket watch in his hand and sell it.
Originally, he thought that since the pocket watch that could occasionally provide luck was of little use to him, he might as well sell it at the tarot meeting in exchange for funds.
However, after taking a look at the now impoverished Tarot Society, he decided to use the watch as a reward for Anne to help him build the item later.
He now has a "living corpse", a "windwielder", and a "judge", and they all decide to entrust Anne to make extraordinary items, depending on the situation, and then decide whether to use it for his own use or sell it.
Wait a while, and everyone will have money at the tarot meeting...... I don't know how long I'll have to wait.
While Roman was complaining and planning in his heart, Miss Justice reported another incident to Mr. Fool.
She had confirmed that the specimen of the dragon she had previously found was the "Hunter of a Thousand Faces", but the problem was that it was a simple specimen with no corresponding extraordinary properties and no flowing blood.
After everyone fell into poverty, there was a lot less trading, more information exchange, and some events were shared for free.
Mr. Hanged Man shared the event of the sacrifice of the evil god on the sea, and as a fringe member of the Church of the Storm, he took a gap of nearly a week to get the news of such an event.
At the same time, he was also assigned a mission to investigate the traces of the cult god believer, and according to the information, he could obtain merit and contributions.
And Miss Justice
Also shared some of the current novelties of Beckland, gossip news circulating in the nobility and upper circles.
Of course, she was still careful to hide her identity.
Roman thought about it, paved the way, and talked about the current actions of the Steam Church, what is being hunted down, and the movement is very large.
This also made the hanged man, who had guessed Roman's identity, even more confused.
During this time, Beckland was very calm, and Furth did not have any other worries at the moment except for lack of money.
Hugh's previous investigation of the "Fool" believers has stalled because there are not enough clues, and since he has no commissions, he has recently been working as a teacher in a school, which also makes Furth become homeless again on the grounds of "conceiving a new book".
However, she got a lot of inspiration from the pirate stories that Mr. Hanged Man often shares, and an outline about pirates that combines adventure and love elements is in the works.
In this way, she is not looking for an excuse to be lazy and not go to class, which also makes her feel more at ease.
After exchanging some information, Mr. Fool ended the tarot meeting.
Klein, who had just reached a deal with Mr. Hanged Man and was about to receive 2,000 gold pounds, was in a good mood, which also made him more confident in the negotiation of introducing follow-on investment after obtaining the bicycle patent.
After Roman returned to reality from the gray fog, he began to prepare his belongings.
In the morning he went to the bridge cave and discussed with Ryjod the details of the trip to Olavi Island.
Rejord claims that a Tuesday night departure is the best option he sees.
And because he didn't want to be too ostentatious, he didn't choose a ship with the background of the Storm Church, and Roman didn't want a "time bomb" to hurt innocents, so he didn't book an ordinary passenger ship, but found a semi-smuggling ship through the "School of Life".
Depart from a private harbour somewhere on the Blue Mountains Island and board that boat to Olawe.
Blue Mountains is the largest island in the Rorsted archipelago and the largest city in the region, Byaam.
Wander the remote parts of the island, go to the manor house to say goodbye to the old butler, and go to the church of St. Helena for a regular prayer.
After Roman was ready, he followed the plan and went to a remote private port on the Blue Mountain Island.
When he came to the agreed place, he saw Rickard hiding in a hooded cloak, his eyes covered in black cloth, and he was on a cane.
This look......
Isn't that ostentatious?
It's almost like writing "I have a problem" on your clothes, right?
Roman couldn't help but complain in his heart.
However, when he arrived at the scheduled ship, he found that there were many problems with Rejord, and it was himself who had the problem.
There were quite a few people on the ship, all dressed like Ryjord.
On the contrary, Roman, who is completely undisguised, looks out of place here......
