Chapter Seventy-Three: Possible Leakers

The failure of last year's sea prayer ceremony caused a change in that area? After reading the content on the paper, Lumian naturally formed such an interpretation in his mind.

He looked at the sticky notes in his hand and vaguely smelled a familiar scent.

After a moment's recollection, Lumian remembered the source of the smell, which was the perfume of Madame Giorgia of the Paco family.

"Inexperienced, or did you deliberately not cover it up, in order to tell me that this was information from the Paco family?" While Lumian was silently muttering to himself, he remembered the humanoid lizard that appeared out of nowhere in the Paco family, and remembered Ruvio. Paco's mother, Marta, who was seriously injured, remembered their anomaly in the matter.

The core question is brought about by the change of the sea? The mutation of the sea has made the extraordinary members of the Paco family very weak, and caused an ordinary person who does not have the blood of the sea to become a humanoid lizard? They don't want other sea clans to know about this matter, and they lack the strength for the time being, so they can't deal with that humanoid lizard, so they can only find an adventurer from outside to solve it? Lumian has a new understanding of the paradox of the Paco family's commission.

And the anomaly of the sea is Lato. Giaro and Juan. A point that Oro did not mention.

They only said that without the pacification of the sea prayer ceremony, the sea was much more violent than usual, the "Dead Navigator" left their territory more often, and the "children of the sea" were weakened.

In their opinion, this is a normal, reasonable, and preferential situation, and obviously has nothing to do with the anomaly.

"Is it only the Paco family, or is it Juan. Oro and Lato. Giaro and the others deliberately concealed this matter, and they didn't even tell each other, and they were guarding against each other?" Lumian guessed as he watched as the note was engulfed in crimson flames in his palm.

He must have preferred the second possibility, unless the Paco family was otherwise special, the effects of the sea mutation should be widespread and universal, and not just for them.

With this, Lumian can also probably understand Ruvio. Paco's disgust when he mentions things like "Handmaidens of the Sea":

From the moment he knew what the "Handmaiden of the Sea" was all about, and who his true "parents" were, he should have fallen into self-loathing and hatred for the entire ritual of praying for the sea, and would rather lose the inheritance of the family than marry another "Handmaiden of the Sea", and when the change in the sea affected the entire Paco family, this emotion reached its peak.

This makes Lumien wonder if Nolfi's hidden collaborator could be Ruvio. Paco.

Anyway, with the resources and status that the Paco family has now, even without the sea prayer ceremony, they can have a good life.

Lugano stood next to him and was a little nervous and flustered when he saw that his employer was in a state of contemplation after reading the note.

Isn't there going to be something going on again?

Lumian raised his head, looked at Lugano, and said thoughtfully: "Although my plateau language has not yet reached the level of 'knowing', I have basically mastered the words needed for daily use, and I can live normally in Santa Harbor with body language, and the few people I really want to contact and communicate with all know Intis."

"I can pay you the balance right now, with a chance to 'teleport' back to Trier for free."

Lugano instinctively shook his head: "You can't take Ludwig with you when you're doing things, if I leave now, who will take care of him?"

Who takes care of who doesn't know...... Lumien stared at Lugano for two seconds, and for the first time he really sensed that there was something wrong with the interpreter: he had already been attacked, and in the face of the possible risks, he had subconsciously rejected the offer to terminate his employment contract now and send him to safety!

This will not be a little Filgin!

Judging from Lugano's usual performance and personality, Lumian thinks that the possibility of him taking the final payment and leaving Santa Port is quite high, but this is not the case.

Perhaps, he himself didn't know why he did it, and just made the decision "instinctively...... Lumian nodded invisibly, and stopped mentioning the end of the employment by paying the final payment.

Milo Village, inside the ancestral house of the Oro family, which has been renovated many times.

Juan. Oro sat by the window, smoking a hookah, looking at the orange sun that was gradually sinking below the horizon, thinking about the sea prayer ceremony that was just over a week away.

Suddenly, he turned his head to the side and looked at the shadow near the door.

The darkness wriggled there, and a green-eyed man wearing a golden straw hat, a white shirt and a black vest grew. Berry.

"Why are you here again?" Juan. Oro sighed and said in Intis.

Lumian laughed, and pulled a chair and sat down on the edge of the setting sun that shone into the room: "There is something I want to ask you again, and I will inform you in advance about a certain action."

Juan's eyes narrowed slightly: "What do you want to do?"

"I want to infiltrate the Mansion of the Governor of the Sea tonight, and if I don't find it, I will look at the rooms where the vigil is held, and if I do, I will force my way out, which is very much in line with my radical image and the purpose of display, isn't it? We won't let others suspect that we are secretly cooperating. Lumian laughed as he recounted his plans.

Juan. Oro inexplicably had the feeling that the other party was threatening him, but he couldn't find any evidence. Berry has a point.

He took a sip of hookah, was silent for a few seconds, and said, "What exactly do you want to ask?"

Lumian smiled: "I want to see what the ring that marries the sea looks like and what pattern it is inscribed on."

"I know that you have only made the ring embryo now, and you have not yet completed the corresponding rituals and attached special ones to it, but I believe that you who have done eleven times as an assistant and many more as a second assistant must remember those patterns, symbols, and structures."

Juan. Aoluo's back gradually straightened, and his tone became calm: "What do you want to do?"

The afterglow of the setting sun in the room suddenly dimmed, as if it had been pulled into another space.

Lumian said unawarely: "What's there to keep secret, don't you know that the shape, pattern and structure of that ring have long been leaked?"

Juan. Aoluo's eyes froze: "When did it happen?"

Lumien raised an eyebrow, "Didn't that companion of mine tell you the real reason for the failure of the prayer ceremony?"

"He just helped us confirm that Iru on the ship was fake." Juan. Oro had a vague guess.

Lumien smiled and shook his head, starting with the fake ring ordered to Tollaire and the lamb sacrifice that was sent to the ship after being bribed, to talking about his own and others' speculation about the fake Iru's abilities and the restoration of the whole thing.

Juan. Oro didn't interrupt, and his expression gradually became gloomy.

After a while, he said in a somewhat hoarse voice: "There are not many people who know the details of the 'Ring of the Queen of the Sea', and know that the Clan of the Sea rarely examines the internal condition of the sacrifice's body, and each of them is a 'Child of the Sea' who has really participated in many core rituals, and they are all still alive...... Iru and Sarah, they don't know...."

Hear Juan. Oro's words almost gritted his teeth, and a flash of inspiration flashed in Lumian's mind, and Huo Ran had a guess: "Salted Egg Superman" is a person within the Fisheries Guild, a "child of the sea" who has been given many powers, and even a member of a certain status. ”

Of course, it may also be that he controlled a similar person in advance and had close "cooperation" with the other party.

If this is not the case, how did "April Fool's Day" know the specific appearance of the sacrificial ring, and accurately exploit the "supervision" loophole of the sea prayer ceremony?

Well, although "I have a friend" said that "Salted Egg Superman" is an extraordinary person of the "Sun" path, this does not contradict that he is also a "child of the sea", even if he becomes a "child of the sea" first, and then takes the potion of the "sun" path, there should be no problem, the power of the "child of the sea" points to the starry sky, and the sun and the starry sky are always very compatible...."

April Fool's Day: The real purpose of sabotaging the sea prayer ceremony is to prepare for "Salted Egg Superman" or his "collaborators" to completely control that power under the sea, that palace? Lumian's train of thought gradually cleared.

He looked at Juan. Ao Luo, with a relaxed smile: "It's not that there is an inner ghost, how can the sea prayer ceremony be so easily destroyed?"

Juan. Oro has had similar suspicions all year long and is now completely unable to refute Lumian's claims.

He thought about it with an ugly face, and it took a while for him to return to normal: "I have to find out that traitor before the official sea festival........

Speaking of which, Juan. Oro looked at Lumian: "There may be something that you need to cooperate with at that time."

Yo, you've started fishing, huh? Lumian smiled and replied, "No problem."

Juan. Oro put down the hookah and left his seat.

He walked over to his desk, took out a pen and paper, and sketched it.

Nearly ten minutes later, the old man staggered over to Lumian and handed over the paper in his hand.

Lumian glanced at it and found that there were six patterns on it, representing the front, left, right, back, front and back of the "Ring of the Queen of the Sea", each with multiple intricate and mysterious symbols and patterns clustering around them.

"It's really useless if you get it, it won't have any effect." Juan. Oro said in a low voice, "It is necessary for the corresponding sea clans to use their special differences to engrave them on the ring and erode them for six hours before they can please the sea and be recognized by her." ”

Lumian nodded and said, "I didn't think about replicating one."

Just show it to the "magician" lady to read.

Instead, he asked, "Is this the ring-making part of the vigil?" No more steps?"

"Another step is for an assistant priest to take the rings to the basement and place them in front of the patterns and symbols that represent our ancestors, and let them sit for an hour. It is a tribute to the ancestors, just like greeting the elders before a wedding. "Juan. Oro briefly introduced.

Lumian thought for a moment and said, "Can you also draw the patterns and symbols that represent your ancestors?"

Juan. Oro returned to his desk.

This time, it only took him two minutes to draw.

Lumian took a look and found that there were some scattered lines and arcs on it, and there were many things missing in the middle, and it was impossible to see the original appearance.

"It might be easier to associate when you look at it live." Juan. Oro sighed again.

Lumian nodded, "Then I'll sneak into the 'Governor of the Sea' mansion once tonight."

Juan. Oro said "um": "Be careful of the sea clans there, they have their own specialities, not necessarily very strong, but they can restrain you from certain abilities."

Late at night, under the light of the crimson moonlight.

Lumian appeared near the church-like building.
