Chapter 107: Cursed Crystal Ball
As if to test Cherry's conjecture, Lewis's deep voice came:
"That's right, Miss Triss is the male instigator who once had another male name, Tris."
Cherie hides behind the shadows, and she hides herself, so that Lewis can't see the change in her expression.
Lewis didn't want to bother the other party to digest the news, after all, the news was too strange for Cherry.
Before she became a transcendent, Cherie was just a Tingen dancer who sold her body out of poverty.
He placed the dagger lightly on the floor and sat quietly.
After about ten minutes, Cherie suddenly leaned in, her voice soft and gentle, "Mr. Lewis, I hope tonight is a wonderful night, please let me thank you for telling me so much." ”
In a panic, Lewis made a sealed spiritual wall to block out sounds.
It wasn't until late at night that Cherie left the window, silently recalling in his mind the potion recipe for the Witch Path:
Sequence 8 Instigators, the potion recipe is not clear.
Sequence Seven Witches: The extraordinary material is the entire blood of the Black Abyss Demon Fish, and the egg of an agate peacock; The auxiliary materials are 80 ml of pure water, 5 drops of golden mandala juice, 3 scales of shadow lizard, and 10 drops of daffodil juice.
Sequence 6 Pleasure: The extraordinary material is a pair of eyes of a succulent banshee, and a silk gland of an adult widow giant spider; The auxiliary materials are 100 ml of pure water, 5 drops of black mandala juice, all the remaining hair of the Banshee, 10 grams of powder made from Fenerport flies, and 5 grams of real mummy ashes.
Silently thinking about it, Lewis couldn't help but think:
"If the price is right, I can sell the potion recipes for these two sequences to Cherry.
The god of the witch path is a women's clothing boss, which makes it difficult for female witches to become high sequences, but Cherie has no need to become a high sequence at all, she just needs to stay in sequence six forever. ”
Lewis sketched the image of Sierra in his mind and silently closed his eyes, but unfortunately Serra had already been promoted.
In the morning, when it was already completely dark, Lewis took a railroad bus back to the Hilton district.
Bought a copy of the Beckland Morning Post, and in the corner of the first page of the newspaper, he found the wanted information:
A wanted thief, of unknown gender, relatively thin body, suspected of having stolen important items in his hands, a bounty of 120 pounds.
Lewis frowned, remembering the men who had been tracking down Cherie yesterday, and they seemed to be clamoring for the thief.
"£120 is not a small number, maybe Miss Cherie stole something important."
The double-decker public carriage stopped and went, and about an hour and a half later, Lewis got off at Oort Street in the Hilton district.
Instead of going straight back to the detective agency, he took out a coin and silently recited the divination statement:
"It's dangerous to go back to the detective office."
The coin lands in the palm of your hand, with the reverse side facing up, which means that there is no risk in returning to the detective agency.
"There are a lot of pedestrians on Oort Street during the day, and according to normal circumstances, no transcendent people dare to mess around, and those people are just staring at me at most."
Lewis took off his top hat and put on a bloated linen coat and walked cautiously back to the detective agency.
From the beginning to now, he didn't find that he was being stared at, which made him feel a lot more relieved and a little bolder.
Pushing open the door, the layout on the first floor was still as usual, with dancing dust in front of the coffee table.
Lewis went straight up to the second floor, noticed a tiny gap in the drawer, and divined.
"Sure enough, someone came to the detective agency, it should be the same group from yesterday, they didn't find any trace of Blau, and left."
Lewis breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that these people would just give up and stop looking for trouble.
Otherwise, he might have to move away from Oort Street.
He could clearly feel that he should not stay in Beckland, after all, in only three weeks in Beckland, he had experienced many transcendent events, and was suspected of being in contact with a hidden existence.
Moreover, the place where he lived was too close to Miss Windsor, and a woman who seemed to have contact with a secret existence made him feel uneasy.
After making the sealed spiritual wall, Lewis took out a lead box from his coat pocket again, and when he opened it, he removed the contents of it.
"This is the extraordinary trait of the 'Serial Killer', and it may be able to be put to good use, after all, it is also a transcendent item."
With no prior information and no one having ever exploited the artifact's properties, Lewis was unable to confirm the item's usage, and could only do so through trial and error.
Fortunately, he knows the extraordinary ability of the "serial killer", which can save him a lot of trouble.
This is because the items formed by the transcendent characteristics are generally related to the ability of the pathway.
Catching a mouse, Lewis began to experiment.
"I'm cursing this rat for having a bad headache because of the headache, it will break its hind leg when it goes downstairs."
After speaking to the transcendent object, Lewis didn't feel any difference in the item, indicating that the ability was not activated at all.
"Failed? The item's abilities can't be activated, or does the curse need a medium, a rat-related medium? ”
Thinking of this, Lewis grabbed the mouse back, dripped a drop of rat's blood on it, and muttered the disgusting little curse again.
The ball-shaped object, which was only half the size of a fist, underwent a strange change, and the surface seemed to be covered with a layer of blue light, which was very evil.
Let go of the mouse again, the mouse "squeaked", and it tried to escape Lewis and fled down the stairs in the attic.
Suddenly, the mouse fell down the middle staircase, and it wailed so badly that one of its hind legs had been broken.
Lewis retrieved the rat again, and after several iterations, he discovered that the item could indeed perform vicious little curses, as long as they didn't go too far.
For example, directly cursing the death of a transcendent being is something that cannot be done at all.
In addition, there is a 30% probability of failure every time you activate an extraordinary item, and the curse will be superimposed on you after failure, and there are no side effects simply by carrying it.
Lewis put the item away, thought about it, and named it.
"It's called the Cursed Crystal Ball, and although this extraordinary item doesn't look great, it may be able to do something unexpected at a critical moment."
As usual, Lewis opened the doors of the detective agency and waited for today's business to come to his door.
After half past two, the door of Lewis's detective office was locked, and he ordered to build a sealed spiritual wall, waiting for Klein to summon him.
This week's tarot meeting is about to begin.
