Chapter 71: Blau's Opportunity
Monday afternoon, just after half past two.
Lewis arranged for Blau to attend to the day's affairs, while he himself hid in the attic, making a sealed spiritual wall, waiting for Klein to summon him.
As soon as three o'clock came, a deep red erupted in front of Lewis's eyes, and with a crazy murmur, he was soon on the gray mist.
Crane was sitting at the top of the long bronze table, and behind him was the palace that looked like the abode of giants.
The three figures gradually condensed, and they sat in their respective positions.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool! After the afternoon, Mr. Fate! Good afternoon, Mr. Hangman! Good afternoon, Mr. Sun. ”
Audrey proudly straightened her back, raised her chin, and greeted everyone in the Tarot Club in a relaxed and happy tone.
"Dear Mr. Fate, I wonder if your dependents have received two thousand pounds of transaction money?" Audrey resisted the urge to tell the story of Chillingus at once, and cared for Mr. Fate's family.
Lewis almost blurted out "I got it", he smiled faintly, and said in a deep voice: "I didn't pay attention to this matter, since my relatives didn't tell me, it means that I should have received it." ”
He was extremely sure that the two thousand pounds had already arrived, and not only that, but he also used the money to buy the potion materials for the "lucky one", and successfully promoted after taking the potion.
"That's great!" Audrey was relieved, and then turned to look at the other side, "Mr. Hangman, the matter of Ziringus that I investigated has progressed. ”
Alger, who had arrived in Beckland a few days earlier, sat down sharply and could not hide his joy and asked, "Where is he?" ”
"Unfortunately, he became aware of our investigation and killed the personnel involved." Audrey focused on the matter and explained in detail the follow-up ideas.
Alger nodded slightly, his gaze first sweeping over "fate", and then at the top of the bronze table.
"Dear Mr. Fool, if I find out the true face of Ziringus and the important magical item he is trying to obtain, allow me to recite your name and inform you with a ritual."
Alger no longer asks for the help of "Fool" and "Fate", and only expresses the attitude of "wanting to report".
Alger believed that if the ultimate temptation was enough, the two hidden beings would surely appear.
"Yes." Crane leaned back in his chair, bowed his head slightly, and replied.
He didn't promise to help when he listened, and he didn't skimp on things like that.
Lewis smiled slightly, and in a low voice, he said, "If my dependents are really interested in this matter, I believe he will do it." ”
It would be best if Mr. Azik was really willing to help, and even if Mr. Aziz refused to help, he could take Blau with him and make a fortune while ensuring his own safety.
"Allow me to praise you in advance." Alger bowed his head and humbly addressed the "Fool".
Turning around, he thanked Mr. "Fate" again with similar words.
Seeing Mr. Fate's promise, Klein was also relieved, as long as there was a "fate" favorite, he believed that this operation would be smooth.
Even if it doesn't work, Mr. Fate's family can easily save "Justice" and "Hanged Man" from too dangerous things happen, which is exactly what he wants to see.
In the majestic palace above the gray mist, the scene was quiet for a few seconds, and Alger took the initiative to say: "Mr. Fool, I am about to obtain a batch of Russell the Great's diaries, and I believe that I will present them to you next time or at the next meeting." ”
"Good." Klein deliberately let his tone take a little pleasure, and bowed his head gently.
With no one to bring Rosell's Diary today, the party soon moved on to the ensuing transaction, with Audrey asking for the pituitary gland of the Rainbow Lizarddragon, and Alger mentioning for the first time the pristine islands that existed on the sea, uninhabited.
When the trade was over, Klein pretended to be casual and asked the "Sun", "Is Silver City still offering sacrifices to the all-knowing and all-powerful God?" ”
Lewis's spirits were shocked, he knew that Crane was about to try the sacrificial ritual, and according to his memory, Crane's sacrificial ritual was based on the ritual of Silver City.
"Sun" Derrick was a simple teenager, he lowered his head, and his tone was full of pain that could not be concealed.
"Yes, the people of the Silver City don't know that the god is no longer there, and we have never stopped since the day we were abandoned by God, but we have never received a response."
Speaking of this, Derick glanced gratefully at Mr. "Fate".
Thanks to Mr. "Fate", I finally learned the truth of the matter, although the truth was so frightening and desperate.
Klein also swept his gaze to "Destiny", he always felt that "Destiny" knew what he was going to do, and there was a feeling of being seen through.
Of course, he also knew that "Fate" was knowledgeable enough, and if he really asked "Fate" for advice, he would surely reply accordingly.
Crane ignored the feeling, leaned back more leisurely, half-closed his eyes, and said, "Describe the process of your sacrifice in detail." ”
The simple Darek did not stand up to the deception, and he explained in detail the sacrificial rituals of the Silver City, including but not limited to the construction of altars and the recitation of the lord's honorific name.
Crane listened silently, he deliberately let the gray mist around him, nodded thoughtfully, and said nothing.
He wanted to ask Destiny about the Lucky Charm, and even more about the purpose behind the Destiny Retrograde, but due to the forced character he had created, he didn't ask until the end of the party.
……
Lewis sank into the gray mist, and his eyes gradually opened as he whispered frantically in his ears.
Having lifted the sealed spiritual wall, he has a new purpose, and this week he has to find a way to participate in the hunt for Ziringus.
Of course, he would also have to write a letter to Mr. Azik, which would be a safeguard.
"The Hangman holds the coordinates of some primordial islands, and he knew that he didn't want magical items last time, but changed the location of those primordial islands, which is definitely more valuable than a magical item that can dive." Sighing slightly, Lewis couldn't wait to try the power of that magical object within the spirit.
After being promoted, he could clearly feel that he had a better grasp of the magical item, as long as he was careful and didn't make too dangerous attempts, he should be able to use this magical item to deal with Ziringus.
After all, although Zilingers is one of the pirate generals, his own strength is only Sequence Six.
……
The sun was shining obliquely on his body, and Blau pretended not to care about the black tea, and between three and half past three, he suddenly felt that Lewis was gone.
If it weren't for the fact that his own doom was still suppressed, he would have suspected that Lewis had really disappeared into thin air.
"It seems that Lewis has more secrets than I thought.
In the future, it is better to be careful in the process of getting along with him, and it is better to treat him as if he doesn't know anything, after all, secrets often mean danger. ”
After taking a sip of black tea, Blau suddenly noticed a strange sensation, and an incredible sight appeared in front of his eyes.
"I sensed an opportunity to take potions, and it was only in the last week that Lewis showed strength beyond the person." Silently putting down the black tea, Blau was a little grateful.
