Chapter 55 Meetings

The journey from Nahuat Island to Port Behrens is much longer, and the safety of the sea in the stormy seas has to be navigated by many dangerous areas, and there is no way to travel in a straight line, unlike airships, which are not as time-saving as airships.

Under Aaron's guidance, Esther performed a functional divination on the "Pale Bone Spike", and because her dream divination could not be obtained, Aaron had no choice but to lend the smallest crystal ball to Esther.

From the chaotic picture, Esther obtained quite comprehensive information about the "Pale Bone Spike":

It did belong to a much more distant era, from a fallen and powerful being, containing a strong necromantic power. If not controlled by Esther, it can contain and drive exceptionally powerful spirits, allowing the user to communicate with the spirit world more efficiently without being corrupted by any death breath.

In addition, it itself has strong penetrating properties, can attach to the bones of any creature, the weaker ones will be directly polluted by the breath released by the "Pale Bone Spike", and will soon die, and the hardness of the strong biological bones is similar to tofu for it.

Esther asked Alexander for advice, but unfortunately Alexander didn't know much about this path, and Esther could only guess that its extraordinary power belonged to the "corpse collector" path, which was one of the common ways for night watchmen in the Night Church.

In the calm voyage of the "Clover", it is a new Monday.

Esther approached Aaron in the morning and asked him about the "Russell Notes".

"Yes, but I only have two here. The teacher may be there ...... But what do you collect this for? Aaron casually stopped talking and asked Esther about her purpose.

But just the few words he revealed were enough to make Esther bite the previous guess, the "mysterious queen" may have a deep entanglement with Russell the Great, but she doesn't know what the relationship is.

Esther looked at Aaron innocently for two seconds before speaking: "Wouldn't it be too deliberate for me to say that it was a secret?" ”

"You know." Aaron looked at her with humble eyes, "Is it someone you know who is collecting?" ”

"So to speak, you can borrow me a copy, and I'll give you back the original."

Although Aaron said that it was a transcription, this was just an excuse, and Esther only needed to read the original text once, and she could roughly remember it in her mind, and then it would be manifested at the tarot meeting.

Aaron didn't care: "Okay, you wait for me to find it, we can't understand this thing anyway, and it's safe to make a few gold pounds." ”

A few minutes later, Esther returned to the cabin with two pages of Russell's diary, closed the door and began to read.

The unfamiliar and familiar Chinese font made her eyes widen for the content in addition to being cordial:

"March 1st, TM's! The silver medal that let me cross! I saw it again in my dream last night, and it even made a sound to talk to me! The voice seemed to be a young girl, so I was curious what she looked like. ”

"But as soon as I woke up, I couldn't remember it at all, and I couldn't even forget what I had told him or her, which was so unlucky! What traverser would be so unlucky as to forget his golden finger?? ”

"On March 2nd, the maid outfit in this world is much more cumbersome than I have seen before, but it's a pity that there is no beautiful girl to wear it, alas, even if the world is different, some of the beauty is the same."

"If only my golden finger could stay.,The maid Lori is also excellent.,Hehe......"

"March 5th, I don't know why, these two days have often encountered bad luck, although not to the point of breaking a leg and breaking a foot, but it is really fucking unlucky, the next horse can suddenly fall to the ground on the face. It's annoying, and I don't know if I'm cursed by someone?

"I heard a few servants say that you can go to church and pray or something, forget it, I just believe in myself. As long as the unfortunate days of these few days pass quickly, there is no need to think about this kind of trouble. ”

"On March 9th, I looked through my diary two days ago, and I wondered, why did I vaguely have the impression of dreaming of the silver medal, but I didn't remember what it said to me? Could it be that I have really been disturbed by some magical power? ”

"Maybe it's, no, she! It had to be her! Can she say a few more words to me? Maybe this time I'll be able to remember what I communicated with her in my dreams, and then remember what the silver medal looked like. ”

"On March 10th, I was about to sail in the afternoon, and the story of the ghost ship was circulating in a section of the edge of the Misty Sea, and I had gathered enough clues that there must be a great old secret hidden there. This may be my feat to start a new era, and I'm going to see what happens! ”

Esther put down the two pages of the journal with a coherent timeline, raised her hand and rubbed her right eyebrow, and went through it twice.

Unlike the "romance" and "invention" she collected last time, there are some things in Russell's diary this time that make Esther feel overly informative.

Just for a moment, Esther's mind jumped from the clue to the reason, "Zoya" has something to do with Russell's crossing? At least he and the silver medal were "one" in Russell's dream, and he had at least some influence on it.

No, no, maybe more people as well...... Zhou Mingrui, the dark night where his real name is hidden, and Li Xing?

Esther quickly recalled the vague fragments of the dream during that time, and felt that the speculation was getting closer to the truth. Russell would forget the memories of his conversation with "Zoya" at the time, which is very consistent with Esther's forgetfulness by others.

At this time, how long should Russell have crossed? He also uses words like "fantasy power" instead of extraordinary power, and it can be seen that he doesn't trust any church's attitude, and he probably hasn't joined the Steam Church at this time.

Esther rubbed her forehead in distress, trying to sort out her emotionally jumbled thoughts.

Hehe, also Lori maid, it's so bold, Russell senior, if you're not unlucky, who is unlucky.

Esther looked at the two diaries in silence for a moment, and decided to hand them over to Mr. "Fool" at the tarot meeting in the afternoon.

——

The light faded, and the Tarot members took their seats around the bronze table.

Miss Justice is still the first to say hello to the Fool, and her brisk voice makes every tarot meeting start in such a pleasant atmosphere, and today is no exception.

Esther looked around at the few people present, and found that the light on the "sun", "hanged man" and "moon" was a little more turbulent, remembering the few deals reached at the previous tarot meeting, it seemed that these three gentlemen had been promoted, and sat in a row......

Esther tucked her hands with cold dark green patterns under the table and blocked them under her ringed arms, this small action fell into the eyes of "Justice" and "Hermit", the "world" next to her did not react, but the "Fool" in the first seat tilted his head.

Justice and The Magician apologize to The Fool for not collecting a new Russell diary this week, and the Sun also failed to get new ancient mythological materials, and only Esther turned in two Russell diaries as a "lover".

At the end of the "Fool's" reading time, he leaned back in his chair and bowed to the crowd: "You may begin." ”

The "World" asked the "Sun" for information about "Grossell's Travels", but did not get any information, but "Justice" expressed interest in it, but the price of 8,000 gold pounds made the deal not close, and it will take some time for "World" to promise "Justice" the extraordinary characteristics of the "psychiatrist".

After that, only the "world" asked for magical items with powerful attacks, and the others did not have the need for extraordinary materials for the time being.

The "World" commissioned the "Magician" to pay attention to the anomaly in Williams Street, which made Esther take a look at him, guessing that the "World" was guarding against the evil spirits of the "Red Angels" underground, could it be that Mr. "Fool" recently had a new plan of action?

Immediately afterwards, the news thrown by the "world" confirmed Esther's conjecture just now, and when the "world" laughed, his hoarse voice made the news even more gloomy:

"There won't be Bansey Harbor for a while."

I see, "World" or even Mr. "Fool" considered the impact of the punishers on Bansey Island, so that the "Red Angels" could find a chance to escape?

As "Moon", "Justice" and "Hermit" discuss whether the Bloodline needs to be played, Esther's eyes droop slightly, thinking about the "Wheel of Fortune".

What she needed wasn't the potion recipe for that path, but the person that the Blasphemous Card contained enough to allow her to wield more of the power of Destiny in the "Thief" sequence.

The exchange session came to an end, and today's tarot meeting also ended here, and after everyone said goodbye to the first "fool", their figures dissipated above the gray mist.

Klein rested one hand on the side of his face, and with the other he lit the armrest of the bronze high-backed chair again and again, and his eyes fell on the empty seat of the "lover".

Huang Tao said in his diary that he heard a female voice, could it be Esther? No, it was too far from when Esther woke up in Tingen. She had said that she had only awakened half a year before me, and that Russell the Great had been active a hundred years ago.

That is based on this time......

Crane looked up, and the translucent ball of light above the bronze table floated in front of him in obedience, and the gentle light in it intertwined and did not take any concrete form.

The silver medal that allowed Huang Tao to cross was related to this gray fog, so the probability that the voice he heard came from "Zoya" is quite high, maybe "Zoya" was trying to influence Huang Tao at that time, and it is even possible that he was trying to get Huang Tao's body and use him to try to get out of here.

But what happened when Russell "crossed" that made "Zoya" lose that opportunity and fail to achieve his goal?

And in Li Xing, Esther's case, "Zoya's" plan seems to have been partially successful.

Crane raised his hand to hold the lower end of the ball of light, holding it in the palm of his hand.

"Betrayal......"

The one disguised as a god sighed.
