Chapter 33: Codename: Fox

Sherlock apparently didn't recognize Ivus.

But seeing that Ivas had been staring at him, he chuckled and said with interest, "I guess you recognize me."

"You're dressed like this...... I think it's a student at the Faculty of Theology of the Law School, right? ”

"How do you know I'm from Avalon?"

Ivas asked rhetorically, "Mr. Sherlock Hermes?" ”

Of course, he didn't have to hide. Or rather, this identity does not need to be hidden. But at the same time, there is no need for active exposure.

"There's a lot to say in detail, but it's pretentious. Because the real reason is that we've only just arrived, and the ritual hasn't started to search for people further afield. So you're definitely on the Isle of Glass, and most likely in the Red and White Queens. Then you are either a seminary student or a pastor after graduation.

"But after graduation, the level of pastors will not be so low. So I think you're a sophomore and getting ready for your first step. ”

Without waiting for Ivus to reply, Sherlock added slowly, "I think you both should be newcomers." Just in case...... The so-called human heart is unpredictable. My advice is, don't expose your real identity. ”

As he said this, a petite girl in a white dress suddenly appeared out of thin air on the chair next to Ivus. She leaned back in a little panic as if she had suddenly woken up, and found herself leaning back in her chair before she calmed down a little.

Ivas couldn't see her face clearly, either. But just by her posture and silhouette, you can see her dignified beauty.

He easily judged that this should be a rich lady. The ritual is still being retrieved within the glass island.

Sherlock, who was on the side, paused and continued:

β€œβ€¦β€¦ In dreams, we can't see each other's faces, we can't remember each other's images, and we hear sounds that are different from those in reality. But rituals reveal the variety and depth of their paths, as well as the small means that are unique to each person. If this information leaks out to reality, it could cause some trouble.

"For example, the ...... of the unlawfully transcendent"

Speaking of this, Sherlock glanced at the knight's helmet boy next to him: "It is possible that he will be caught by the people of the Inspectorate because of this." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Belch. ”

The young man in the helmet smiled a little awkwardly when he heard this: "I haven't entered the Inspectorate yet, Mr. Sherlockβ€”I've read your newspaper!" You are my idol! ”

"Ninety-nine out of a hundred students at the Law School would say that, but what they usually admired me was not my intelligence and analytical skills, but the fact that I was often in the limelight in the newspapers."

Sherlock snorted, his tone without any ups and downs: "You'll know next time you advance - in the dream world, you don't have to wear your helmet." Because no one can remember your face. On the contrary, it is your naΓ―ve and reckless personality that may be recognized. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Thank you, Mr. Sherlock. ”

The knight student who was spicy and commented on was not convinced. Just a sincere nod of yes.

"Excuse me, what should we call each other?"

Ivus said at the right time.

While reversing the subject, he gave Sherlock a little cushion.

"β€”code name."

At this moment, the first old man suddenly said, "You can give yourself a code name and use it all the time." Your code name and deeds will also be passed down in the world of the Transcendental...... When there is nothing to talk about, it is common for two transcendents to meet and talk about what they have seen and heard in the dream world.

"But if you have more than one path to take, remember not to take the same codename."

"Not necessarily ......"

Sherlock explained, habitually trying to pull out his humidor to his chest, only to find that it was in a dream.

In the dream world, clothes are merely decorationsβ€”not even pockets have the function of holding things. Only transcendent items that you have created with the mystical skills of the corresponding path can bring some in. For example, if Eivus was promoted through the path of dedication, he would not be able to use the illusion cards he had made.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Like me, the code name is 'Detective'. ”

Sherlock replied, "Because on Glass Island, everybody knows who I am." So I don't bother to hide either. Acting like a clown in his own one-man show is too ridiculous in the eyes of those in the know.

"Of course, you newcomers still remember to take a code name. Don't let it be too late in reality.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Also, the old man missed one thing. ”

The young man tapped on the handrail and emphasized, "You can tell what you have seen and heard in your dreams, but don't go into too much detail. Otherwise, if someone hears another version of the story from someone else, they will know who you are when they compare it with yours. It is even possible to lock your location directly. ”

"You don't need to remind them of that, Sherlock."

The old man said lightly, pausing for crutches: "This kind of loss still has to be eaten once by yourself to be impressed." ”

Sherlock's gaze suddenly focused on the old man's crutches, and he stared at it for a moment of silence.

But he did not mention it, nor did he object to the old man's words.

He just looked at the knight's helmet brother and Aihuas, and didn't even look at the eldest lady: "You all report the path you want to advance, and the code name you give yourself." This is also the basis of our cooperation...... If you want, you can also report your extraordinary career. But you don't have to tell the truth, and you don't have to believe what others say.

"Start with me - I'm a 'detective' and my path is 'wisdom.'"

"I'm ...... Uh, call me 'Knight'. ”

The knight-headed brother touched the helmet on his head helplessly: "I've put it on, and if I don't call it that, I care too much about it." My profession is the 'light cavalry' of the authoritarian way, and I am ready to advance to the 'air cavalry'. ”

"Obviously, I'm a pastor. With the grace of the candle, walk in the way of dedication. ”

Ivus followed, smiling, "You can call me 'Fox'." ”

Soon it was the girl's turn.

She was a little nervous and cleared her throat.

"Hello seniors. I am the 'all-rounder' of the path of beauty, and my code name is 'Lulu'...... May I? ”

She said with a little weakness. I'm not sure my code name will be recognized.

The others didn't respond at all, only Ivas nodded gently at her.

"Hello, Lulu."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Hello, Mr. Fox. ”

"Lulu" whispered.

I see, does the code name come from "Lulu's Magic Flute"......

Ivas thought to himself.

"All-rounder" ......

This is a rare profession on the path of beauty. You need to show at least five artistic talents to be hired.

The girl didn't realize that her true identity had been revealed for the most part. Reverse confirm who likes the opera "Lulu's Magic Flute", and the box is basically opened.

Tsk tsk.

And when they introduced themselves, the other four also appeared one after another.

Eivas enthusiastically recounted Sherlock's point to them, and repeated the code name and path from "Detective" to "Lulu".

So the remaining four people also introduced themselves:

"I'm Basil, the one who adapts to the path." It was a middle-aged woman who looked a little older, in her thirties.

"I am the cheese of the path of love! Because I love cheese! ”

It was a little girl who looked to be only eight or nine years old.

She was clearly not an Avalon, as she was not allowed to be transcendent at this age in the Kingdom of Avalon.

"I am the 'king' of the balanced path, a 'botanist'."

A middle-aged man who looked a little depressed hurriedly replied: "If you need alchemy incense or essential oils, you can buy them from me, and I will give my brothers and sisters a 10% discount on the market price!" Delivery to your home within 20 kilometers of Mainz! If you want to customize the potion, you can also ...... As long as I can do it, it will be delivered within 20 days of receiving the deposit! ”

Ivus narrowed his eyes slightly.

Mainz, he remembers, was a city in the kingdom of Star Antimony...... It's normal, Star Antimony was originally founded by alchemy. Their country names come from alchemy.

"I'm from a transcendent path, but I'm not a demon scholar."

A young woman in her early twenties said softly, "You can call me 'Coco.'" ”

Similarly, she did not declare her occupation.

And at this moment, all eyes were on the old man.

"Isn't that obvious?"

The old man paused indifferently and paused his cane: "There is only the dusk path left."

"You can call me 'Bone Carving...... It's kind of my hobby. ”

Hearing this, Lulu seemed to have something to say.

But at this moment, the stone hourglass suddenly regained its color. Exuding a brilliant golden glow, a beautiful rainbow light like a star ring emanated.

[Sorry guys, I'm late]

A female voice full of reverberation suddenly sounded in the empty dark space.

[Have you finished introducing yourself?] Then it's my turn]

[This ceremony is presided over by me, and I am the apostle of Lord Sand Timer...... You can call me Elenie]

The next moment, the pitch-black world suddenly brightened.
