Chapter 66: The Underground Vault
Aurora seemed to see the anger in Sean's heart, shook her head and said, "You misunderstood, I didn't do anything about black poker, and in fact, I couldn't do it either." ”
Sean frowned and said, "Then how do you know that the black poker is in my hand?" ”
"It's just an agreement."
Aurora said, seeing that Sean didn't seem to understand, and explained: "One of the conditions of my original deal with the witch was that if she traded this seal in the future, she had to tell me who she was trading with. ”
Sean was stunned, then gasped.
Good fellow, you're so cautious!
He understood why Aurora had agreed with the other party on such a condition, and it was obvious that black poker, a special and powerful transcendent item, would become a killer weapon if he was not careful, and he could accurately grasp the whereabouts of this transcendent item at any time, so as to at least ensure his own safety to the greatest extent.
It's just that there is a question in this, that is, how does the witch determine her identity?
I'm obviously very secretive, so it's impossible for a witch to know?
As if to see the doubts in Sean's heart, Aurora smiled and pointed to the Mithril box in his hand and said, "Look at this keyhole." ”
Sean was stunned, and subconsciously looked down at the mythril box in his hand, only to find that the mythril box containing the black poker was a heart-shaped keyhole, before he exchanged it with the witch, he didn't care, now it seems, who would deliberately make a keyhole into a heart-shaped?
As if he understood something, he smiled bitterly: "This is the special mark made by that witch lady?" ”
"That's right!" Aurora pursed her lips and smiled: "Generally speaking, no one would go out of their way to change the Mithril box where the seal or transcendent item is placed, so this also gives the witch a chance, no, it should be said that all the witch's Mithril boxes are heart-shaped keyholes." ”
After the words fell, she looked at Sean meaningfully and said, "Caution and prudence are qualities that every transcendent person should have. ”
Sean was speechless.
In his heart, he muttered to himself, "It seems that I will have to find a time to make a few special Mithril boxes with special markings in the future." ”
"Alright, Sean, is the deal now possible?" Seeing Sean's expression softened, Aurora asked with some urgency.
Sean pondered for a moment and smiled, "I still have a question. ”
Aurora was stunned for a moment, and said helplessly: "Ask, as long as I know, I can tell you." ”
Sean smiled and said seriously, "Who is the witch?" What are the Ten Sacred Fingers of the Hidden Hand? What kind of strength are they? ”
Aurora rolled her eyes, "Is this a question for you?" ”
Sean blinked and didn't speak.
"Well, actually, your problem is indeed the last one, and that is the organizational structure of the Hidden Hand."
Aurora took a deep breath and said with a solemn look in her eyes: "I also exchanged information about the Hidden Hand from the witch back then, and I can't guarantee that it is 100% true. ”
Sean bowed slightly, motioning for her to continue.
"To put it simply, the Ten Sacred Fingers are the leaders of the organization of the Hidden Hand, which are the Sun Finger, the Moon Finger, the Star Finger, the Sky Finger, the Light Finger, the Darkness Finger, the Flame Finger, the Storm Finger, the Wave Finger, and the Earth Finger."
"The witch is very special, some similar to the role of the saint in the sect, although she does not have much power, but she is the spiritual symbol of the organization."
"The Ten Holy Fingers have equal status, equal rights, and the same functions, and each Holy Finger has its own Intelligence Department, Exploration Department, and Logistics Department, which can be said to be a joint organization composed of ten independent organizations."
Hearing this, Sean was surprised: "The royal family is so relieved of this organization, isn't it afraid of their betrayal?" ”
"Of course I'm afraid!" Aurora pointed out meaningfully: "Therefore, the position of the witch is very special, she does not have any rights, but each witch is directly designated by the royal family, basically the royal family's descendants, and is responsible for all the finances of the entire organization." ”
Sean suddenly gasped and said, "So, this witch is the treasurer of the Hidden Hand?" ”
"You can't say that." Aurora shook her head: "To be precise, the witch is only the person who transfers the finances between the organization and the royal family, and she is responsible for handing over the treasures obtained by each organization to the royal family, or handing over the funds approved by the royal family to the Ten Holy Fingers." ”
Sean suddenly realized, nodded and said, "It turned out to be a middleman." ”
"Yes, after all, although the witch is directly appointed by the royal family, there is no guarantee that there will be no problems."
Saying that, Aurora smiled strangely: "For example, this witch rebellion, I shouldn't have thought of it at all when I thought about coming to the royal family." ”
Sean was stunned for a moment, and said curiously: "By the way, why did this witch lady suddenly rebel?" ”
Aurora smiled slightly: "You may not believe it when you say it, it's because of love." ”
Sean was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened in disbelief and said, "Reiner Brown? ”
Aurora smiled slightly, but did not answer.
But Sean seemed to be convinced of this answer, and couldn't help but shake his head speechlessly: "It's really wonderful!" ”
A witch from a secret organization falls in love with a scholar nicknamed a madman?
Gee!
Why didn't these two go to make a movie?
"Alright, Sean, can we make a deal now?" Aurora took a deep breath and looked at Sean with burning eyes.
Sean touched the back of his head and coughed lightly, "Can I ask another question?" ”
Aurora: "......"
After a few seconds of silence, Aurora gritted her teeth and said word by word: "You, ask, let's ask." ”
Sean smiled awkwardly: "Actually, it's nothing, I just want to know, if there is no secret vault in the underground mausoleum of the Cadiz family, then what can I get?" ”
Aurora was stunned, the anger in her heart slowly faded, and she said angrily: "Don't worry, whether there is a secret vault in it or not, that soul belongs to you." ”
"The soul?"
Sean was visibly stunned.
What do you mean?
Aurora rolled her eyes: "Do you think I fancy your Sequence 8 strength?" ”
Sean's expression was even more embarrassed, but the next moment, as if he had thought of something, he raised the Mithril box in his hand in surprise: "Could it be this?" ”
"That's right!"
Aurora's expression became solemn: "Our family once sealed a strong man a long time ago, although his soul has been very weak after countless years, but after all, he was once a peak demigod powerhouse, so his strength is still very strong, so do you understand what I mean?" ”
Sean's eyes widened, he opened his mouth silently, and it took a long time before he said in a trembling voice: "You want me to seal this soul with black poker, and then let me ......"
"That's right!"
Aurora looked at Sean with burning eyes and said: "If it were an ordinary person, I believe he would not be able to withstand the fusion of the soul of a demigod powerhouse, but you are different, my intuition tells me that you must be able to." ”
Some people died, but not completely......
