Devil.

Audrey didn't expect to hear this name again, and it was in real life.

She tried her best to keep her expression in order, but like Viscount Glerinte, she showed the shock she deserved when she first heard the name.

Mr. Red looked at the expressions on both of them and continued, "I can't reveal much about Him, but I can guarantee that what Miss Hall feared will not happen. ”

"So, you really prayed to a hidden being called the Devil, and also succeeded in obtaining the recipe for two potions?" Viscount Glerint couldn't help but ask.

"It's not a prayer." Mr. Red whispered, "It's a deal." ”

"The devil upholds fair and equal deals."

Audrey can be sure that the devil that Mr. Red has come into contact with is indeed the same Mr. Devil she has come into contact with in the Tarot Society.

No wonder.

Audrey suddenly realized that Mr. Red's wealth may have been obtained through trading with the devil, but she didn't know what he had traded to obtain such a huge fortune.

She didn't ask a question, for she knew that Viscount Glerint would be a good substitute.

Sure enough, the viscount asked, "Mr. Red, please forgive me for my presumptuousness, I really can't believe it, you mean that you have a relationship with a . The Hidden Being made a deal, and then he gave you two potion recipes? ”

"Since it's a deal, what did you pay for? Money? ”

Mr. Red had a complicated expression and said, "Lifespan, Viscount Glerint. ”

"I paid for my life."

The party lasted until midnight, and by the time Mr. Red returned home, the glow of the Crimson Moon had enveloped all of Beckland.

Unsurprisingly, he saw the deceased gentleman sitting relaxed on the couch, holding a book on the mythology of the Second Age.

"I'm back." Hearing the sound of entering, he didn't look back, but just asked flatly, "How are things going?" ”

"It went well." Mr. Red tugged at his bow tie, and it wasn't until this moment that he completely relaxed, "more smoothly than I thought." ”

"Based on the information you gave me, I managed to attract the idea of Viscount Glerinte, and I was thinking that after getting acquainted, he would introduce me to Miss Hall, but coincidentally, Miss Hall joined us in the middle of the exchange."

Mr. Reid told me everything that had happened today.

"Miss Hall is perceptive, and it is hard to imagine that a young and beautiful aristocratic lady of hers could have such oppressive power, and I feel that I can almost see through the beautiful blue eyes."

"I used the method you taught me to reveal the existence of the devil step by step through the potion formula, and it is clear that Miss Hall is skeptical, and Viscount Glerint must have believed my words."

The corners of Tang Sen's mouth were slightly hooked.

In fact, Miss Hall was the one who was convinced, after all, she had personally come into contact with the existence of the devil above the gray fog a few days ago.

"Where's the potion material?"

That's what Townsend cares about.

"Miss Hall is happy to go to the Hall family's inventory and look for the materials, which are actually not too precious and valuable to them."

"They're willing to pay a small fee for me to verify the authenticity of these potion recipes."

"Maybe in a day, or two days, she'll send someone to bring the materials," Mr. Red said. ”

"Good." Townsend nodded.

"One more point." Mr. Red poured himself a cup of strong tea and said, "Viscount Gleilint has invited me to his house tomorrow, and he obviously hopes to come into contact with the devil through me and trade for a potion recipe called the Apothecary. ”

"He asked me if I could inform some people who were also interested in the occult about the existence of the devil, and I prevaricated for a moment, after all"

Mr. Red said with some humility: "The so-called devil is nothing more than the words you taught me, whether it is money or the formula of potions, you gave it to me. ”

Townsend said: "Do you think this is just rhetoric? ”

Mr. Red was stunned for a moment: "Isn't it?" ”

Townsend smiled slightly, and did not continue to talk about this topic, but said:

"You can tell the viscount that the existence of the devil is not suitable for too many people to know, otherwise it is likely to provoke the devil's wrath, but he can introduce some people, and if he agrees with you in person, he can get involved."

"Like those secret associations?" Mr. Red quickly reacted, "Reilly, you want me to use the devil as a reason to establish a occult association?" ”

"So to speak." Tang Sen smiled: "With Viscount Glerint's resources as a starting point, and the devil's trade as a means, some people are willing to join, and it is even possible to attract those transcendentals, Mr. Red, if you run it well, this association is likely to become a small circle of transcendentals." ”

"You can trade intelligence, knowledge and materials in it."

"I can't do it." Professor Red said nervously, "I-"

"I know what you're worried about." Tang Sen waved his hand and interrupted him: "Don't worry, as long as you firmly keep the secret about the devil and let everyone know that if you want to make a deal with the devil, you must go through you and ask for your help, then your position in the association is unshakable." ”

"But—" Mr. Red opened his mouth, finally giving up his intention to continue arguing.

He knew that what the deceased person in front of him had decided, he couldn't change it at all, and he could only cooperate.

So he asked, "How do I know how to tell who is involved?" And how can you be sure that those people won't spread the word? ”

"That's my job." Tang Sen smiled: "As your cousin, I should also play a role in the next trip." ”

Audrey is efficient, and the Hall family's treasury is comprehensive enough.

At noon the next day, a package was delivered.

It is potion material for "soothsayers" and "apprentices".

As a reward for the potion formula, and also worried about the waste caused by Professor Red's failure to blend, Audrey even sent two copies of each recipe.

Townsend took a deep breath and stacked the materials neatly on the table, and next to him, there were measuring cups, droppers and other instruments that had already been prepared.

The preparation of potions is very simple, as long as the potion formula is strictly followed, the amount is not too small, and the amount is not too much, basically there is no possibility of failure.

It's like a chemistry experiment that even junior high school students can operate.

Of course, this is only because this is a Sequence 9 potion, and higher level potions need to perform some rituals at the same time in addition to concoction.

"Finally—"

Townsend suppressed his excitement and took a deep breath.

"I'm about to become extraordinary."

The biological clock had collapsed, and it was already dark when I woke up.

I'm going to have to figure out how to adjust my body clock so that the future updates are before 10 p.m.
