After breakfast, Ji Xun and the housekeeper Lao Ding went to several wealthy merchants as guests.

Although he did not like this kind of time-wasting useless communication, "Charlie" needed it.

It was also the daily life of the aristocracy.

After a few trips, I received some valuable gifts and all kinds of ambiguous hints.

The day passed so quickly.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Ji Xun took a steam car to a luxurious mansion at No. 12 Cotton Street.

This is Sir Roman's Fragrant Hills apartment, a house with beautiful coloured glass and gardens, full of art.

It is said that Sir Romon is a big collector in Starfall City, and he didn't come to Innocence City to be a speculator, but to collect some good things from the Old World.

However, Ji Xun's own identity is all substituted, and he is skeptical of anyone now.

One more point.

Those guys from the Silver Moon Sect will change their skins.

They will come out in any capacity, and Ji Xun will not be surprised.

"Baron Charlie, please."

When I got out of the car, there were housekeepers and beautiful maids waiting at the door of the mansion for a long time.

Ji Xun looked around, this Baron Romon did have a unique vision.

Not only the apartment is inflatable, but the quality of the maids is a bit exaggerated.

In comparison, the two maids rented by Ji Xun are a bit crooked.

Walking into the house, it is like entering a museum, and you can see all kinds of antiques and artworks placed in a very casual corner.

Flower pots, oil paintings on the walls, bookshelves, and knick-knacks can smell the heavy smell of antiquities.

In those glass windows, there are also some cards that are either quaint or beautiful.

Ji Xun even saw some gold-quality cards!

"Hey, that's an exaggeration."

Ji Xun's face was silent, but he was amazed in his heart.

Many of these items go to the auction house to be high-quality items, but they are casually displayed here.

I used to just hear that good things were in the treasury of the nobility, but now I look at it, and sure enough.

The aristocrats would rather put their treasures in the warehouse and eat ashes than take them out for circulation in the market.

The value of this great collector's house is immeasurable.

As soon as his thoughts turned, Ji Xun was led by the maid to the living room.

When I came, there were already seven or eight people sitting here.

He glanced at it, most of them were the various nobles and big businessmen he had seen at the Cao family's dinner yesterday.

Last night, he was already familiar with each other, and now that he came, everyone was not a stranger and greeted each other.

"Oh, Baron Charles is here."

"Oh, I'm so envious, Baron Charles was the only male guest who won Miss Caterina's favor and danced together at last night's dinner."

"Where, where, it's just a little thicker-skinned."

“.”

Ji Xun was also familiar with this kind of commercial touting, and responded with a smile.

Obviously, it wasn't him the baron that everyone cared about the most, but the dance he had with Caterina last night.

At this time, he also took off his hat and made a gentleman's greeting to the man on the throne: "Sir Romon." ”

This is an old gentleman in a meticulous suit with a slightly raised mustache.

Baron Romon listened, and also said steadily: "Welcome Baron Charles to the Humble House." ”

"Where, it is a contemptible honor to be invited by the sir."

Ji Xun said, and the maid on the side had already pulled the chair away.

Take a seat.

After all, it was the first time to participate in this kind of collectors' exchange, and he also showed the curiosity he should have.

"Oh, Sir Romon's collection is so impressive, I thought I was at the Federal Museum."

"Oh my God, those cards are gold. In the eyes of ordinary people, this is a family heirloom, and it is an ordinary ornament in your place. ”

“.”

Half boasting, half genuinely curious.

Ji Xun also took the opportunity to ask a lot of topics of interest to him.

A rainbow fart blew over, and everyone echoed.

To a large extent, this kind of collectors' exchange meeting is a variety of show-offs and praises among peers.

If no one knew they had these treasures, the fun of collecting would be much less.

In a short time, the crowd came.

It was a small appreciation party, and there were only thirteen people in total.

Ji Xun also observed everyone quietly.

It was not a very formal event, but Sir Romon presided over the opening ceremony: "Thank you again for taking time out of your busy schedules to come to the Humble House to participate in this collectors' exchange meeting, recently my hunter group has collected some very interesting collections in the Old World, without further ado, please take a look at my first collection [Miracle Flower Pot]."

As he spoke, he clapped his hands.

At that moment, a maid came up with a flower pot.

Ji Xun's gaze fell on the flower pot, and at the same time fell on the maid.

Only then did he realize that it seemed that the dozen or so maids he had seen in the apartment were all such attractive and well-behaved beauties.

I figured it out after a little thought.

Not only connoisseurs of collectibles, but it seems that the maid is also the collection of this Sir Romón.

In aristocratic circles, the quality of a maid is also a status symbol.

Ji Xun glanced at it, and the other aristocratic lords seemed to be quite interested in the maid, and their eyes were undisguised ambiguous.

The maid smiled and placed the pot on the stand, then took out a seed, buried it in the soil of the pot, and watered it.

Look at it again, and a magical scene appears.

That kind of seed sprouts and breaks through the soil in front of everyone's eyes, and then in a dozen breaths, it becomes a delicate blooming rose.

"Ouch, this pot is really rare"

"yes. It looks like a magical object from at least 5,000 years ago."

"What's even more rare is that the condition is still so intact."

“.”

Seeing this, everyone began to tout business again.

Even Ji Xun was very interested when he looked at it.

This pot is not very valuable, but it must be very rare.

You can't necessarily find a second one.

Baron Romon took the lead, and the others took out the collection they had brought.

"This is my Andrei's 100-year-old [Alice's Dream Music Box], which has the miraculous effect of calming the nerves"

"This is the [Giant Bean] that my Chamber of Commerce collected in the ruins, and it is said to be the seed of the ancient god tree"

"This is the pocket watch of Belier III, which I have ever seen."

“.”

One by one, the collectibles were taken out.

It's not at the level of a relic, but it's all antiques with extraordinary special effects.

All kinds of strange things, Ji Xun is also an eye-opener.

But it's just a bystander and a well-timed tout.

There are a lot of real relics in his own hands, but Charlie's identity is a down-and-out aristocrat, how can there be any good things to show.

With the display of the collection one by one.

Ji Xun was still unsure if this was a normal exchange of aristocratic collectors, or if someone had an alternative purpose.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Baron Romon brought out a collection that he immediately determined the meaning of the collection.

The best things are always put last.

Sir Romon looked at the display of their collections and stood up again: "Now I will show you a very special collection. ”

With this, everyone's curious eyes turned away.

At this moment, two young maids came in from outside the door, holding in their hands an oil painting covered with burgundy satin.

Compared to the oil painting, the maid's outfit is more eye-catching.

They wore sheer gauze robes, almost all transparent.

This kind of gauze is not only sexy and seductive, but also very periodic.

Ji Xun had read a lot of ancient books before, and this sexy gauze was a characteristic costume of the Talon court.

It is said that the mad king Augustus was fond of beauty, and the maids in his palace were all dressed in this almost naked gauze.

When Ji Xun saw the outfits of the two maids, he guessed that the collection might be an antique from the Talon Dynasty.

This Sir Romon is indeed not bad, and as soon as the two maids with excellent figures appeared, the charming atmosphere was set off at once.

A group of fat-headed and big-eared aristocratic lords couldn't help but judge their heads, and they didn't hide the desire in their eyes at all.

Ji Xun's expression was also full of interest when he saw this.

But there is something thoughtful in my heart.

If that's what you think, it's time to show some traces.

The maid is still just an appetizer.

Baron Romon raised his hand.

The silk on the painting was lifted by the maid.

This is a portrait on the painting.

Looking at the magnificent palace in the background, it seems to be a picture of some ancient queen or something.

The wonderful thing is that even if it is a light veil mask, it makes people feel that the woman in the painting must be extremely beautiful.

The painter seems to have used a mysterious method to show the peerless charm and mystery of this mysterious beauty over thousands of years.

Sir Romon also duly introduced: "The name of this painting is 'The Golden Necklace of Queen Montigine'. The peerless beauty on the painting is said to be Montini, the queen of the last king of the Taron Dynasty. There is also a special magic to this painting, it can make people feel the ultimate pleasure in the world, please relax and enjoy it carefully"

Ji Xun listened to the name of the painting, and then he noticed that the woman in the painting was wearing a golden necklace.

Originally, no matter how subtle the oil painting was, no matter how big the work was, it was not very attractive to him.

But as soon as this painting came out, his eyes were also drawn to it.

Because, a very magical scene is staged.

Looking at it, the person in the painting actually came to life!

In front of everyone's eyes, the veiled woman in a long white dress walked out of the painting.

It is dreamlike, giving people a sense of shock and amazement as if a beauty has come from a history textbook.

A room full of people looked at the eyes, as if they had fallen into a beautiful dream realm that could not extricate themselves.

However, the weirdness also came.

As soon as this woman came out, a string of prompts immediately appeared on Ji Xun's enlightenment panel.

"You've been exempted from a hypnosis of the occult 'Joyful Dream'"

"You're Exempt from Persistent Contamination of Faith"

If you can't be exempted, that is to say, you will be tricked quietly, and you will not be aware of it.

Ji Xun has [JOKER] to be exempt from the contamination of faith.

There is also the rare relic that Xie Guozhong transferred from the headquarters of Bureau X to prevent the spiritual secret technique of restraining the leader of the silver moon, and the spiritual secret technique is also exempted.

Of these people in the room, I'm afraid he was the only one who saw the abnormality at the moment.

Everyone in the room was fascinated, and Ji Xun didn't show anything abnormal, and his eyes were also full of confusion.

And he already knew in his mind that this Sir Romon was a member of the Silver Moon Sect!

Or maybe there are a lot of people in the room.

After thinking about it a little, Ji Xun also determined that since the [Alice's Dream Music Box] was taken out, he had actually entered the game.

The sound of music can calm the mind and fall asleep, but it is actually foreshadowing in advance.

And the old god that the Silvermoon Cult believes in is the "Lord of Dreams and Pleasures" Arakne!

And those beautiful maids, in fact, are all hints of pleasure.

Once the desire is aroused, many pleasure techniques are easier to hit.

When Ji Xun thought of this, his eyes were confused, and at the same time, he also muttered in his heart: "Tsk. It's finally here. ”

He approached the Silver Moon Sect for this old mystical method.

I was worried that I would be hammered by Xie Guozhong a few times before, and I didn't dare to show my head.

Seeing that these guys are still active now is indeed good news for him personally.

However, it is not all illusions.

Although Ji Xun was exempt from the spiritual illusion, he really looked at a masked woman coming out of the oil painting.

And if nothing else, this woman may be the mysterious leader of the Silver Moon.

She appeared here, most likely to come and personally pollute these newcomers.

Ji Xun could also guess the purpose of their search for him.

There are masters around the high nobles, and generally people with unknown backgrounds have no possibility of approaching at all.

Approaching rashly will lead to suspicion.

And these down-and-out aristocrats are the best springboard.

The people of the old sect were not afraid of being undercovered.

After all, the high-tech means that faith pollution can change people's cognition, and if you dare to send an undercover agent, you can give you the opposite strategy at any time.

They don't even have to investigate the identity of the people who were invited.

Ji Xun could also guess that those people found him, or last night's high-profile worked.

The Confession of Faith Tainted Reminder still flickered.

Ji Xun is looking forward to it more and more.

After pollution, everyone is "their own people".

When the time comes, all sorts of things are convenient.

But he had also heard Xie Guozhong say before that the pollution of faith is not achieved overnight, but like a psychedelic drug, it needs a little bit of addiction.

There should be means later.

A moment later, everyone woke up in that dreaming state.

One by one, they breathed heavily, but their expressions instantly darkened, as if they had enjoyed the emptiness of extreme pleasure.

Ji Xun also acted in accordance with this situation.

He had read many books on occult spells, and there was a limit to physical pleasure, but there was no upper limit to spiritual pleasure.

They have not been exempt from the contamination of faith, and their perceptions have been tampered with to some extent.

And no one doubted anything.

But Ji Xun also knows very well that even if the performance is flawless, he has actually exposed something.

Shortly after, the collectors' exchange meeting ended.

The crowd thanked Sir Romon and left.

Before leaving, almost all of them received a small gift from Sir Romón.

But Ji Xun received two beautiful maids.

In aristocratic circles, this act of exchanging maids was not unusual.

Thinking about it is probably used to continuously pollute yourself.

He was not polite and accepted it directly.

And it was after the guests left the Fragrant Hills Apartment.

In front of the window on the second floor.

Sir Romon looked at the departing vehicles in front of him, his eyes were deep, and he said, "Chief, five of the people invited today are strange faces who have recently come to the City of Innocence. Which one do you think is suitable? ”

There was also a masked woman standing next to him.

If Ji Xun was here, he would be able to recognize that this was the one who came out of the painting before.

The masked woman pondered for a moment, and said, "Looking at the background, it doesn't have much use value. But there is one that is really suspicious. Moreover, it should be someone sent by Bureau X. ”
