Chapter 224: The Polite Messenger
In the early morning, when the first rays of sunlight rose in the east, Lewis, who was hiding under the covers, tightened the quilt on his body, and the next moment he turned on his vision and saw Miss Elana walking up to him, looking down at him condescendingly.
"Your letter, Mr. Lewis!" Elana bent down and bowed.
The face is so close...... Spirit creatures are cold...... Sure enough, it's Miss Elena, who can only be admired.
Lewis shuddered, and he took the letter, and Miss Elanna became illusory.
Unwrapping the letter, Blau's handwriting came into view:
"Mr. Lewis:
You may have a misconception about the promotion ceremony of the 'winner', which is not about suppressing one's own bad luck, but about welcoming it.
When the potion is completely digested and the power of the 'Priest of Calamity' reaches its peak, we have to prove to fate that we have the power to overcome the calamity, so the sequence five of the path of fate is called the 'winner'.
The way to get promoted is to completely give up suppressing your bad luck and try to get promoted if you don't die within 48 hours.
Of course, 48 hours is only the theoretical shortest, and the promotion of the 'winner' requires not only overcoming the calamity, but also an opportunity, and this opportunity lies in your own grasp of the 'destiny'. ”
Lewis disposed of the letter, fully understanding the conditions for promotion to "winner", in other words, the "Priest of Calamity" is against his own fate.
Those who win are promoted to the next stage, and those who fail die, and finding the lucky ones is a trick, which is equivalent to using the fate of others to help you fight against calamity.
"Now I'm almost certain that I won't die easily, neither the gods of steam and machines, nor the goddess of the night, they don't want me to die so quickly, after all, there will be no one to pay the debt owed to them."
Lewis decided to try it himself, after all, finding the lucky one is an unreliable thing, otherwise Blau wouldn't have been stuck in Sequence Six for years.
Before that, though, he had to find a place that wouldn't easily affect the people around him, after all, he had confirmed that the power of the Priest of Calamity could create a natural disaster, a source of doom that everyone shouted about.
"Until then, I'm going to say goodbye to Miss Stephanie, and when the promotion is successful, I'll leave Intis and return to Beckland.
As for alternating current, I can give some of the benefits to the Church of Steam and the Mechanics Church, believing that they are more active in promoting alternating current than I am, after all, I am just a 'businessman'. ”
Lewis was in a good mood to decide what he was going to do next, he got dressed in his formal attire, put on a half-height silk top hat, and packed his suitcase and prepared to leave Intis.
Suddenly, his inspiration was touched, and he blinked his right eyelid three times in a row, and his vision opened.
A large bone messenger emerged from under the floor, and it lay down in front of Lewis, the letter crumpled in its claws and fell into Lewis's hands.
"I always feel that I have been very lucky lately, I don't know if it's my delusion."
Lewis took Mr. Azik's reply, and was in a good mood not to complain about these messengers, as a "priest of calamity", it must be said that it is a miracle that he was able to meet good-tempered messengers twice in a row.
Thinking of this, he sat aside for a moment, opened the letter, and Mr. Azik's handwriting appeared in front of him:
Lewis:
Glad to hear from you.
Earlier, your description of the undead gave me a lot of inspiration, and that's why I thought of the Spirit Order.
During this time, I have recalled many things one after another, and I have also interpreted those scenes that appear in my dreams from time to time.
By the way, after my investigation, I found that the Spirit Order is trying to resurrect the Grim Reaper, and this Grim Reaper has already shown signs of life, I always feel that I am familiar with the Grim Reaper, and I wonder if you can give me an answer.
Finally, I remembered that I had reached the 'ferryman' stage, I don't know which stage it was, and it would be nice if you could have an answer. ”
After reading Mr. Azik's letter in one go, Lewis probably had a guess about Mr. Azik's strength, and the current Mr. Azik should have surpassed Sequence Three, but not yet fully reached the level of Sequence Two.
In addition, due to the fact that Mr. Azik is missing half of his soul, even if he exceeds the third sequence in person, the strength displayed must be slightly weaker.
Turning over the silver fountain pen from the suitcase, Lewis wrote the letter:
"Dear Mr. Azik,
I just have the answer to your question, the 'Ferryman' is the third sequence of your path, and the second sequence above is the 'Death Archon'.
I suspect that you should have reached the level of Sequence 2, and it stands to reason that at this stage, you should be free from the fate of death and resurrection, and I guess there is something wrong with your soul.
Finally, I will tell you some more trivia, the mythical form of the Grim Reaper in ancient times was the immortal bird, and the mythical form at this stage is the feathered serpent, I hope these things can be helpful to you. ”
Lewis did not dare to mention the "resurrection" of the Grim Reaper, because the resurrection of the Grim Reaper was an illusion, and it was the uniqueness of the way in which the Goddess of the Night was digesting the Grim Reaper.
If Mr. Azik is allowed to come to the door now, it cannot be ruled out that an accident will occur, and it is not ruled out that the goddess will lose her temper.
"After all, the goddess is a senior time-traveler, and I should give him the respect he deserves. Of course, this is also for the sake of my life. ”
Thinking of this, Lewis clicked four times on his chest, outlining the crimson moon.
He took out the Azk brass whistle and hesitated slightly, hesitating whether to blow it.
So far, he'd met the good-natured messenger twice in a row, and the third time he wouldn't be so lucky.
Otherwise, use the messenger summoned this time to block the knife first? Pad a cushion probability and then re-summon?
Lewis's right hand trembled slightly, but he still blew the Azic bronze whistle, and the opportunity to block the knife was always rare.
A cold feeling hit, and a white bone messenger about four meters tall came out from under the floor, its eyes blazing with ghostly fire, and it looked down at Lewis.
The next moment, the messenger leaned down and stretched out its bony claws toward Lewis.
"I can't summon good-natured messengers three times in a row, they've been converted?
No, perhaps because I was conquered by my powerful person, I didn't dare to do whatever I wanted. ”
Lewis handed over the letter satisfied, watching as the Bone Courier turned into an illusory fountain of bones and sank beneath the floor.
He picked up his suitcase again and went to the third floor, where Mrs. Slant frequented, to inform him of his imminent departure from Intis.
Pushing open the huge door four or five meters high, Lewis saw Mrs. Slant sipping black tea, facing the huge floor-to-ceiling window alone.
Looking down from the hall, you can overlook the entire manor, which is the best view of the whole manor.
Mrs. Slant seemed to be in a good mood, and she hummed softly to the gaudy ditty of Intis.
