Chapter 59: "Dimension Walker"
In the hall of Count Wolfe's house, men and women danced to the melody played by the violin.
Audrey held a glass of pale gold champagne, bored around the banquet, casually chatting with the ladies attending the banquet. She didn't want to get involved in this diplomatic banquet, but she couldn't resist the kind invitation of her friend Viscount Gleilint, and came to this banquet with some reluctance.
Viscount Gleilint is now a popular man in the major banquet halls, and he is now highly regarded by several great nobles, including Audrey's father, Earl Hall. Glerint's demeanor was graceful and natural, and he was able to move freely around the banquet halls of every noble.
He was ambitious, and he was bent on reaching the top of the kingdom of Rune. There was even a nickname among the nobles: "Glalint the Ambitious".
Audrey knew that it was all the effect of a potion on the otherwise ordinary Viscount Glerinte.
Audrey felt that this extraordinary ability called "actor" would make other nobles go out of the way to fight for their fortune if they were known about it—the ability to whitewash their true thoughts with the art of language and movement was enough to drive any nobleman who wanted to climb to a higher position crazy.
And part of the reason why Audrey's "audience" potion can be digested so quickly is due to Glerint. Thanks to his often subconscious performances, Audrey was able to comprehend the essence of the "audience" early. During this period of time, Glerlint's "playing" became more and more diligent, allowing Audrey to digest some of the "mind reader" potions.
She took a sip of the golden liquor in her glass as she moved gently, avoiding the aggressive gaze of Ambassador Bertis of Intis. The perfume on Bakerron's body irritated Audrey to her stomach, and the words he provoked with certain aristocratic women were so filthy that his taste was like that of a male peacock.
Audrey naturally didn't want this guy to target her, because it would make her feel a little disgusted from the bottom of her heart. Audrey felt Baker's gaze shift to herself, and couldn't help but speed up her pace a little:
"Glerint, this ......"
She walked to the table to the side and looked at Viscount Gleilynt in front of her. However, Glerint, who was sitting at the edge of the banquet hall resting, looked a little sluggish, and seemed startled when he heard Audrey's words.
He quickly stood up and said to Audrey beside him, "I'm sorry, Audrey - ah, I feel some pain in my stomach, I'll go to the bathroom first!" ”
With that, Glerint left the scene as fast as he fled. Audrey stretched out her hand, and suddenly some confusion and doubt appeared in her heart. She looked in the direction Glerint had left, and instinctively felt that something was wrong.
"No...... right"
Audrey muttered to herself, "What happened to Glerint?" Why did he look like he had seen me like he had seen a ghost? Is it a matter of occultism, or is there something wrong with the playing? ”
However, the thought in her head ended in the next moment, because Intis's ambassador, Beckron. Let. Madan strode in the direction of Audrey:
"You're the most beautiful lady I've ever seen." Baker, whose face was thin and had a little stubble, politely kissed the back of Audrey's white-gauze gloved hand, his eyes warm and bold.
It's so troublesome, this guy looks like an old whore...... Audrey complained silently in her heart, and talked politely with Beckron, who had come to talk enthusiastically.
……
Glerint, who had left earlier, was now standing in the bathroom, his eyes bloodshot. From the moment he was summoned by the Great Being, he could sometimes see that kind of shadowy scene in his dreams.
As time passed, the scene Glelint saw from it became clearer and clearer, and he stayed longer and longer. In the last month, he had almost indulged in the reassurance of his dreams, as if he had become a shadow himself.
Fortunately, because of the maid who came in to clean the door, he woke up in time and got out of the dream that made people want to go crazy. When he managed to ask the Great Being about his own problems, the Great Being replied so plainly:
"It's a side effect of potions, and advancing to a higher sequence can suppress this effect. The shadow in your dreams is a kind of protection for you, a gift from me. ”
In fact, it is also the case, the actor is a way that is heavily polluted by the high-dimensional overlookers, if the high-dimensional overlooks do not give them protection, the "actors" of sequence 9 will be directly out of control if they are not promoted within a month.
The protective effect of essentia only slows down this process, and when the "empty shell" that emerges from the dream is completely clear, then the extraordinary beings of this path will be out of control due to pollution, and the extraordinary properties will be integrated into it after death.
After that, feeling threatened by death, Glerint began to play like crazy, which became the origin of the rumor that "Viscount Glerint was ambitious and tried to become an earl" among the nobles.
Just a few days ago, he had completely digested the potion, and felt that the intoxicating aura of the dream had diminished a lot. But then came some reluctance to go crazy with the reassuring feeling and the greater fear that followed. He was afraid, afraid that he would lose control and lose his life at a young age.
Secondly, he felt the power of money and power while playing an "actor". What you couldn't do can now be easily done, and what you once longed for is now at your fingertips – is there anything more intoxicating than that?
Glerint believed that he had become obsessed with this feeling, and what terrified him now was that the great being named "The Lookdown" had issued him a mission:
Assist two "Dimension Walkers" in their quest to assassinate Ambassador Beckron!
Dimension Walkers are the general term for the dependents of the high-dimensional overlookers, and their duty is to accept the tasks issued by the high-dimensional overlookers, and bring a great viewing experience to the high-dimensional overlookers. Missions are not mandatory, but no matter the path, most Dimension Walkers will almost always go on the task of a high-dimensional Lookdowner.
There is no other, but the reward given by the high-dimensional overlooking person is extremely generous. At first, these dimensionwalkers are afraid that there will be any good traps to hide after the generous rewards of these quests, but after completing a few quests, they can basically come to a consensus:
The Great Lord seemed to be really rich, and he sometimes made a lot of money in the rewards he gave at will.
This is actually a very common sense thing.
Not to mention that the high-dimensional overhead has monopolized the two paths of "scholar" and "actor", the extraordinary characteristics of these paths are basically a drizzle for the high-dimensional overlooker, anyway, the characteristics below the demigod are not valuable, and the high-dimensional overhead can also use their own cohesion to forcibly aggregate the characteristics in the body of those extraordinary people who died unexpectedly.
Therefore, giving extraordinary traits as a reward is an empty glove white wolf for a high-dimensional overlooker.
And as for the rewards of money and the like?
Not to mention the "change" ability of the high-dimensional overlooker, just the dimension walkers who were previously "cast" by the high-dimensional overhead to complete tasks on various planets can get a lot of money when performing tasks. You know, everything other than the quest items has to be handed over to the Great Lord......
Therefore, the high-dimensional overlooking person can be said to have a lot of money. There is no richer outer god in the universe than him, and even the superstar lord who rules over a large number of cosmic territories and the demon of knowledge with extraordinary technology are no better than the high-dimensional overlookers, who often use those resource-rich planets as their own ATMs.
Not to mention the other outer gods, they don't need money. Those low-level resources don't mean anything to them.
And generally speaking, the superstar ruler likes to plan the trajectory of the stars and civilization, and does not bother to care about the high-dimensional overlooker who secretly withdraws money. After all, he can't be beaten or rubbed, and if he does, you don't know where this guy will be resurrected, and maybe he will be backstabbed by this guy on the planet behind him.
Superstar Juggernauts often condemn such behavior, but it is of no avail.
In Glerint's case, the names of the two "Dimension Walkers" that emerged from the information given by the Peer-Down were familiar to him, one familiar to him, and the other unfamiliar. Familiar is Triss the "Witch", and unfamiliar is "Bishop of the Rose" David Abraham.
Their mission was to assassinate Beckron, and all they were given was to lead Beckron to a place close to the gate - Glellint thought he had no combat power, and this task made sense, after all, he was the lowest rank of the tenth rank among the dimension walkers.
- After all, he's only a Sequence Nine now, and he hasn't completed a single mission. All the dependents of the high-dimensional overlooking are divided into ranks, from one to ten; Dimension Walkers are generally one level higher than the "Rank", and need to complete certain tasks in order to be promoted. Of course, the more tasks you complete, the more you will have additional level increases.
This is a privilege similar to that of church deacons and bishops, and the higher the rank of the dependents of the high-dimensional overlookers, the more difficult the tasks they can receive, and of course, the more rewards they can get.
Gleilint was very able to understand this kind of rule, after all, it was similar to the church system on earth - after becoming a "wild extraordinary", he went out of his way to learn about the rules of the church extraordinary. As a result, Gleilynt felt that the organization he was a member of had a great Lord in charge was a different kind of "church."
For among them there is also a division of authority among the extraordinary members of the church. For example, the "witch" Triss in charge of the battle that Glerint saw was now in the eighth order, and he was slightly shocked that the rank of the sixth "Bishop of the Rose" that he had never seen was actually higher than his own sequence......
This only proves that the number of tasks that this "dimension walker" has completed is likely to be extremely large, and the methods may be very sophisticated.
"I need to find a way to dis......associate the Ambassador's death from me," Glerint muttered, muttering to himself in the mirror in front of him. He took two steps with some irritability, thinking of how to solve this mission.
Now that Audrey's position is at the gate, a little guidance will be given to switch the position of Beckron, who is talking to Audrey, with Audrey - well, it may require a little inducement from me, and it will not hurt the weak Miss Audrey in the aftermath of the battle......
Thinking so, Glerint straightened his clothes and put a confident smile on his face. He strode in the direction of Audrey, looked at Audrey who was talking to Beckron, and took a step between the two!
"I'm sorry, Ambassador Beckron." Glerint said apologetically to Beckron. His tone was sincere and not like "acted": "May I say a few words to Miss Audrey?" I was looking for something about the beautiful Miss Audrey. ”
The so-called "dark under the lamp" is such a truth. Glerint is going to have some minor quarrel with Beckron, so that he may be investigated by MI9, but he will never be recognized as an assistant to the assassin of Ambassador Beckron!
"Hehe, of course you can." There was a clear look of impatience on Beckron's face, but he quickly pushed it down. He could obviously hear the chill in Glerinte's mouth, and he suddenly snorted dissatisfiedly—when would a little viscount be able to talk like this to his ambassador?
Thinking that he was about to be forced to leave Rune, Beckron looked at the viscount in front of him with a confident look on his face, and a fire of jealousy suddenly ignited in his heart.
With such emotions, Beckron suddenly opened his mouth and mocked: "However, Mr. Glerint, you don't talk like a rune nobleman, don't you?" Ambitious Gleilynt? Hehe, I don't know which lady's thigh you want to hug? ”
As he spoke, Beckron looked at the two of them, and the contempt and ambiguity in his eyes were completely undisguised - after all, he was leaving, so why should he worry about his relationship with these little nobles now?
As soon as these words came out, both Glerint's and Audrey's faces changed slightly, and Beckron's words were exactly what Glerint wanted, and he posted the message of "hands-on" on the information exchange platform built by the Look-down - this seemed to be the prerogative of the fifth-order dimension walker, and the "Rose Bishop" generously shared it.
While speaking sarcastically: "Be more respectful, the Rune people can't say such rude words!" ”
