Chapter 43: A Sense of Contradiction
Lumian was quite calm, and hid in underground Trier with an aura of disgust and disgust, and told the story of his encounter with Jane in general.
Franka smiled a little awkwardly and changed the subject: "How can you be disgusting and disgusting?" You're not out of control. ”
She has encountered several times when the Hunter Pathway Extraordinaires have gotten out of control, most of which have shown a trait that attracts the hatred of those around them, which is the main reason why they are quickly eliminated.
Lumian explained briefly: "I got a seal, and the negative effect is that it becomes disgusting and disgusting an hour after removing it."
"What if you don't take it off?" Janena asked curiously.
The corners of Lumian's mouth turned up: "Then it will soon become an alarm, constantly attracting the surrounding official extraordinaries to arrest me."
"It likes to get attention." Franka teased with a laugh.
"After all, it's a 'decent' guy." Lumian said meaningfully, and then casually added that its ability was mainly 'bribery', with a little 'distortion'. ”
Because there is a high probability that he will cooperate with Franca to deal with the parish priest Guillaume together. Bene, so he took the initiative to reveal the situation of the "decent" brooch, but he didn't say too much detail, especially the strength and scope of the ability, after all, the magic item is an extraordinary person's hole card, if the hole card is clearly touched, it will be very insecure, just like in the previous action, Franka mainly told the "Ring of Punishment" information, and did not talk about the brass-colored revolver and other items.
There is communication, there is concealment, there is trust, and there is also the most basic defense, which needs to be grasped to a good degree.
Franka didn't ask, and thought about the following:
"Sequence 7 'Bribe-taker' and sequence 6 'Corrupt Baron' corresponding to the 'Black Emperor' path, it looks like a 'Corrupt Baron' died, and the extraordinary characteristics were precipitated, and the things on his body naturally combined into a seal, and he did not present his own ability well."
"Black Emperor'?" Lumian hadn't heard the name of the sequence, and neither had Jane.
"The name of the deity of the lawyer's path." Speaking of this, Franca unconsciously lowered her voice and said with great interest, "It is rumored that before the fall of Russell the Great, he had become the 'Black Emperor' and a real god!"
Lumian and Jane were speechless for a while, you look at me, I look at you, they are both a little shocked.
As an orthodox Intisian, Russell the Great's place in their hearts is difficult for Franca to accurately estimate.
He, no, He became a god?
"Rumors, rumors, just rumors." Franka hurriedly added that her image as a complete trustworthiness in Jana's mind would not be ruined.
After exchanging a few words, Jana opened the wooden box held in her right hand and took out the box inside.
They contained a small, dark, honeycomb heart, a mass of sacs that secreted a little dark green liquid, and a small section of blackened trachea.
Franka looked at it for a few seconds, then nodded lightly:
"The heart of the Demon Throat Honey Driver, the poison sac of the 'Dark Lurker', the main materials are all in place, well, the 'Dark Lurker' is a unique two-headed snake.
"There are also the singing pipes of the Magic Throat Honey Driver, except for the blue mandala juice, water fern powder, walnuts and pure water......
I have the blue mandala juice here, and the remaining three auxiliary materials are easy to obtain. ”
Water Fern Powder...... Lumian remembers that the auxiliary material for the "Provocateur" potion also had this kind of thing, which meant "being easily influenced by other people's words".
From this point of view, "instigators" and "provocateurs" are similar to some extent, and "hunters" and "witches" are adherable and interchangeable adjacent paths.
Seeing that Jana was a little anxious, and seemed to want to go to the corresponding store to buy water fern and walnuts now, and prepare pure water overnight, Franca specially advised:
"Don't be in a hurry, adjust your state first, although you have already digested the 'assassin' potion, judging from the situation in recent years, the probability of losing control of drinking the 'instigator' now is very low, but if you can do better, why not do it?
Wouldn't it be better to reduce the probability of loss of control to negligible?"
"I'm wondering what kind of monster the 'instigator' will become if it gets out of control." Lumian touched his chin and said cooperatively.
Jaina glared at him, sat down on the couch, closed her eyes, and paced her breathing.
Lumian then fell backwards into the single sofa next to him, resting his arms on the armrests on either side, looking at Franca and saying, "Have you collected the real mummy ashes?"
"Nope." Franka shook her head helplessly, "I've driven to 500 Felkin 10 grams, those guys are still fake, it's really useless, they don't have any ability to discriminate!"
"Only 500 Filkin?" Lumian scoffed, "Aren't you rich?"
"Normally, it's only more than 100 fergins, 10 grams, and 500 is already a lot, okay?" Franka replied angrily, "Besides, I don't have much money right now. ”
Lumian nodded, probably understanding why Franca was suddenly poor.
She didn't really complete the task of infiltrating the "Iron Cross", but only assisted Lumian to achieve her goal, so the reward she received was not one of the main materials of the "Witch of Pleasure", but the qualification to purchase the main materials of the "Witch of Pleasure" and enjoy a discount.
"How much more?" Janna brushed her eyes open, trying to help.
Franka shook her head: "500 Felkin can't get it real, and 1000 is the same, it will only make others think of me as fools, waiting for me to offer a higher price."
She then looked at Lumian, "What are your plans lately?"
If she wasn't in a hurry, she would have waited a little longer, half a month, a month, and she would definitely be able to get the real mummy ashes, but since Lumian needed help next week, she felt that it was really necessary to consider going to the Star Plateau of the Southern Continent to find the real mummy.
Luminian understood what Franca's hidden meaning was, and said as if thinking: "Look for an opportunity to 'set fire' and digest the potion."
In this way, he can receive the gift of the "Contracted One", through which he can obtain different abilities from different creatures.
Judging from the current information, the newly promoted "Contracted Person" can only sign three contracts, and Lumian intends to choose between "the ability to target spirits or spirits", "preliminary teleportation ability", "certain disguise ability", and "abilities similar to 'stealth' and 'shadow lurking'".
However, this is a matter of making a decision based on the information of the spirit creatures, and none of the creatures who are willing and suitable to make a contract with Lumian have similar abilities.
The only thing Lumian can be sure of is that the creatures in the spirit world have the ability to "shuttle through the spirit world", that is, the preliminary teleportation ability, the difference is only in the fast and slow, if he signs a "blank paper", maybe he can only teleport ten or twenty meters at a time, and if he wants to rely on it to go to the Southern Continent, he is so tired that he can't do it.
'Arson'...... What are your thoughts?" Franka sat cross-legged in her easy chair.
Lumian recounted the first "arsonist" code he summed up.
"Playing in the positive position is agitation, and playing in the reverse position is incitement, both of which can help you digest the potion." Drawing on her own experience, Franka gave her opinion, "It's not easy, you go to the docks tomorrow and incite the dock workers to strike, with the slogan of fighting for better pay. ”
Lumian shook his head slowly:
"If organizing them to strike has a good chance of helping them win benefits or achieve the goals they want, then I will try, but if it will only bring disaster to them, I don't like to do it.
"I hate the act of taking advantage of others and causing harm without giving them benefits, unless there is really no other way, in which case anyone can be sacrificed.
"There used to be a guy who always said that everyone who was united could rob other people and get enough food, and who knows, when we united to fight others for food, he took advantage of the chaos and ran away with food."
"You've had a lot of experience." Franka looked at Lumian again, and felt that he was more than just the "Muggle" brother.
Jaanna felt similarly.
Franka then sighed:
"You're really still more upright, if it's me, it should be the same, although I can say more powerfully, but in fact, haha, I can't be ruthless."
Lumian glanced at her and said thoughtfully:
"I feel that you are a very contradictory person, sometimes you are experienced, you have seen a lot, you know a lot, and you have a strong ability to analyze things, and sometimes, you are stupid, simple, and naïve."
Lumian had only seen a similar ambivalence in one other person, and that was his sister Aurore.
Franca, who was stimulated by Lumian's three consecutive words, blurted out: "Are you trying to provoke me?" Where am I stupid and naïve?"
After saying that, she saw Jana's disapproving eyes.
"Ahem." Franka cleared her throat and said, "This is because I have the most basic kindness and expectation of the world, and I still love life after recognizing the cruelty of life, well, most of our people are like this, only a few, strong in mind, strong in will, brilliant in mind, flexible in hand, and never seem to be bothered by the difficulties of things and moral dilemmas." ”
What kind of people from the Curly Baboon Research Society? Why is there such a similarity? Lumien nodded, not asking more.
Because Jane planned to collect the remaining supporting materials tomorrow and promote the "instigator", he quickly left White Coat Street and returned to the Golden Rooster Hotel.
As he walked up the stairs, Lumien saw Anthony, an intelligence monger. Red came down with a suitcase.
"Planning to move out?" Lumien asked.
"yes." Anthony still dressed in army green camouflage. Red nodded slightly.
Lumian laughed and said, "Didn't you say that there are still things to do in the market area?"
"The clue is broken." Anthony. Red sighed softly.
Clue broken? Lumian suddenly remembered that he had seen the campaign poster of the congressman in the other party's room, so he asked tentatively: "Because Hugue. Artois is dead?"
