Chapter 75: The Wolf Smoke Rises

Well?

After hearing Mr. "Hanging Man" answer, Audrey suddenly made a puzzled sound, and couldn't help but turn her head to look at Mr. "Hanging Man" opposite.

"The Hanged Man" Alger sneered in a not-so-blunt tone, and said to the "Justice" lady in front of him:

"The intelligence of this news is very cheap."

After all, it's not a secret to people on the outside. You're afraid that it's because there isn't a gathering of extraordinary people that you can't get the information out there. ”

Alger made his words clear, and he guessed that the current Miss "Justice" didn't actually have any extraordinary, other than the Tarot Society.

Otherwise, in fact, as long as you join some folk gatherings of extraordinary people, or even some salons among ordinary nobles, or let adventurers inquire about the news, you can easily get this news.

"So, Mr. 'Hanged Man', what kind of reward do you need? Is it bartering, exchanging information, or paying directly in gold pounds? ”

A rich smile appeared on Audrey's face, which made the corners of Alger's mouth twitch. He glanced at Miss "Justice" in front of him, who was dressed for the price of an extraordinary characteristic, and felt that the extraordinary materials he had worked so hard to save for so long was a joke.

The price of this news is actually not worth much gold pounds, but it seems that it is a bit of a loss to tell the news to Miss "Justice" for free.

But Alger looked at the two new Tarot members around him, "Priestess" and "Moon", and thought that he could disguise himself to make them feel that they were generous, kind, and enthusiastic Tarot members at heart.

Especially the "moon" that was still looking around there before, it was very easy to deceive at first glance...... Phew, innocent eyes, no scheming.

And about the disguise, in fact, it's like Mr. "Sun". To this day, Alger still doesn't understand whether the "Sun" really has no scheming, or if he is hiding his scheming too deeply.

As far as he knew, Mr. "Sun" had now become bishop of the Church of Fools on their side.

Alger gets a little short of breath when he thinks about it. Compared to the discrimination and difficulty in promotion on the side of the Storm Church, the Church of Fools is obviously much more humane.

This made Alger want to give up his current position in the Storm Church and go to the Godforsaken Land to become the bishop of the Church of Fools like Mr. "Sun".

But after thinking about it, Alger put the idea on hold.

Even now, Alger is not a high-ranking position in the Storm Church, but he is also famous. Now it is not a problem for him to be steadily promoted to Sequence Five, if it is true that the Storm Church has made him have no hope of being promoted to a demigod for a long time, he will choose to completely give up the identity of the Storm Church.

After all, the identity of a Orthodox Church is still quite important.

But that's for later, for now, if I can consistently obtain the extraordinary properties of the same sequence as me, I can trade the remaining two potion recipes from Mr. "White Tower".

Alger felt the aura of the superior of the Storm Path from Mr. "White Tower", who was wearing half of the glasses beside him. Alger is sure that this will prove that the White Tower has changed from the "Hanged Man" path to the demigod of the "Storm" path!

Alger pressed the redundant things in his heart, suppressed his tone, and said to Audrey in front of him:

"This message is free."

Looking at Miss "Justice" who looked at him with a slightly surprised look, Alger suddenly had a feeling of being insulted. The surprised look in Alger's eyes could be seen clearly even through a layer of gray mist, which made him feel a little depressed.

But soon, looking at Miss "Justice", who quickly withdrew her surprised eyes, in order not to embarrass herself, "Hanged Man" Alger chuckled, pretended that something had not happened, and said to Miss "Justice" in front of him:

"This news is not worth the exorbitant price, whether it is among the pirates or the church, and even in front of the inhabitants of the coastal cities and the southern continent, the matter has been completely uncovered in front of them."

"It's even common knowledge for residents in some areas."

Audrey quickly adjusted her posture and sat across from Alger, listening to Alger in a manner that was impeccable to the listener.

After all, she and the "Hanged Man" were the first members to join the Tarot Society, and they both knew some of each other's personalities.

Moreover, when they had previously carried out a commission at the Tarot Conference related to the "Storm Church" and the nobles of Beckland, the two of them were almost aware of each other's identities, but they maintained the tacit understanding of the members of the Tarot Society, and did not break the identity of the real level.

As for the subsequent members, they naturally don't know each other's identities, but in Audrey's opinion, the "hanging man" opposite her is indeed a person who will weigh all aspects in order to weigh the benefits he can get in the end.

Such a charity speech, which can be called a small "sun", generally does not fit the character of the "hanged man" in front of him.

That's why Audrey was surprised by this just now, but after a few moments, she found some clues with the audience's strong and keen observation.

Well, Mr. "The Hanged Man" is now partially focused on the new members, and it seems that he is going to make this information public for free in order to gain their trust, so that he can make a good impression on himself and lay the groundwork for future cooperation......

It's in line with his character, and it's no wonder he does it...... But does this mean that this news is really known to many people, but the nobles of Beckland have no way of knowing?

Audrey's face changed.

She thought of a possibility.

- What if, it's her who has the problem?

Since Susie is also an extraordinary person in the audience pathway, and has recently digested the potion of Sequence Eight under the guidance of Audrey, she is preparing to be promoted to Sequence Seven.

So, sometimes Audrey would ask Susie to go to Earl Hall's room to eavesdrop on some conversation between the big nobles.

Of course, it is also for this reason that after Hugh and Firth left Bakeland, Audrey herself lost the clues of other extraordinary gatherings. This is also the reason why Audrey can not look for other extraordinary gatherings after losing the source of extraordinary news from the Tarot Society.

Is there any greater gathering in the secular world than the Hall family, who stand at the political center of the Kingdom of Rune?

And if it is related to the major events of the extraordinary world, what extraordinary gathering can be better informed than Tarot?

However, Audrey finds herself caught in a contradiction.

From the other members of the Tarot Society, this news is the most basic information that many extraordinary people and even some ordinary people can understand, so it was not explained at a high-level gathering such as the Tarot Society held by Mr. "Fool".

Audrey, on the other hand, had never heard Susie report to her about the things that were being discussed in Earl Hall's room, those things related to the situation in Beckland!

Even if this matter is related to the extraordinary world, no matter what, at the moment when Beckland has just experienced the cataclysm, there will be no leaks at all!

Whether it was the serious expressions of the young aristocrats and some of the old aristocrats in the gathering on certain topics, or the addition of night watchmen in the Night Church and the increasing number of guards around Queens, it seemed to indicate that a great event was coming.

But why didn't the royal nobles of Beckland mention it? Why, as a "spectator" of Sequence 7, is it that I don't find the mystery hidden in these things now?

- Mr. "The Hanged Man" mentioned just now that the Extraordinary One knew about this, is it possible that the nobles have a problem?

Audrey felt as if a few drops of sweat were about to ooze from her forehead, and quickly gathered her spirits, ready to listen carefully to whether Alger's words were in line with her expectations.

While Audrey was nervous, Alger spoke directly.

There was also a little doubt in his heart, and he wondered why these obviously sparse and ordinary news could not reach the ears of the well-informed Miss "Justice".

Even if Miss Justice hadn't attended any other extraordinary gatherings, it wouldn't have been like this......

"While Beckland was being rebuilt, the colonial forces of the Kingdom of Rune in East Bailang repeatedly clashed with local cults and rebels, including the Rose School and organizations that believed in death, such as the 'East Bailang Restoration Society'.

And it is suspected that there is also friction between spies and secretly supported warlords such as Intis and Fersak, as well as attacks and harassment of the army of the Kingdom of Rune. ”

"At the same time, in West Bailon, the Church of the 'Eternal Sun' announced that it was officially at war with the newly established 'Aurora Church' and its subordinate 'Creator Salvation Society', and the progress of the war has affected a considerable part of the shipping lanes belonging to the Kingdom of Rune."

Alger paused slightly, then said to the people in front of him:

It is also for this reason that the recent international relations between the Kingdom of Rune and the Republic of Intis have become increasingly sour.

In addition, the Fusak also has a vague intention to attack the Eastern Bailang in the southern continent, that is, the colony belonging to the Kingdom of Rune, so the Kingdom of Rune is now in the possibility of being attacked by the Republic of Intis and the Kingdom of Fusak. ”

"Not to mention, piracy has been on the rise lately. And there are many more powerful and extraordinary people on the sea, ready to compete for the position of pirate general, the presence of these pirates has gradually overstretched the navy of the Kingdom of Rune, although it also has an impact on the routes of the other two countries, but it definitely does not have such a great impact on the Kingdom of Rune. ”

"That's the current state of the kingdom of Rune, but you've probably heard of it. So I don't think there's any value in this news, and it doesn't require you to pay a lot of money for it......"

Alger spoke in a rare tone with a slight humor, but he saw a look of shock on Audrey's face, and his face suddenly became serious.

"Could it be that the Kingdom of Rune is not ...... right now No, I also went to the port of the Kingdom of Rune before. At that time, although the local residents did not know exactly what was going on, they knew that the army was now at war with the rebels in the Southern Continent under the leadership of the Storm Church. And the Extraordinary of Beckland does know......"

Alger also came back to his senses suddenly: "Miss 'Justice', don't you know about this?" ”

"There hasn't been any news about Beckland at the moment." Audrey felt a surge of fear in her heart, and this fear came from nowhere, but it was like a great haze hanging over her.

She took a deep breath and used the instinct of the audience to press her outsourced emotions back into her heart.

This is undoubtedly a very strange thing. Even the ordinary people along the coast knew that the Kingdom of Rune was now at war with the Southern Continent, but Beckland, the capital of the Kingdom of Rune, did not know the news.

No, it's not necessarily that you don't know the news. If this news is not clear at all, then the number of extraordinary people and armies in the royal capital will not increase, and they will not allow themselves to discover the anomalies of Beckland.

- If Baekland himself didn't know he had an abnormality, how could he have found out that he had an abnormality?

Audrey swallowed, not knowing what to say.

There were many speculations in her mind, but she couldn't be sure which one was true.

The only thing Audrey could be sure of now was that the nobles of Beckland might have known that the Kingdom of Rune was at war with the Southern Continent, and that there was a danger that the other two countries might attack at any time, but they didn't mention it to anyone else, as if they had completely forgotten about it.

It's like they remember everything, they do everything, but they ignore the reasons for doing it.

Audrey's heart was a little impatient, she knocked on the table in front of her a little anxiously, her pupils gradually narrowed and lengthened, as if she was about to turn into a pair of vertical pupils!

And for the extraordinary who have not attained divinity, such a change usually means getting out of hand!

At this moment, a deep voice suddenly echoed in the hall, and the power of the gray mist reverberated and broke the terrible changes in Audrey's body.

Audrey, who came back to her senses, turned her head to look at Mr. "Fool", who was holding a crystal ball like a star in her left hand, and heard Mr. "Fool" say in the same relaxed tone as ever:

"Adam."

——

Klein knew that there was a good chance that Adam had done it.

And he has now learned to dump the pot on the two brothers, Amon and Adam, just as the Aurora Society is forced to admit that he is responsible for the events.

Anyway, the members of the Tarot Society had no way to ask the two brothers for verification, not to mention that this matter was really the work of Adam and his Dusk Hermit Society.

Otherwise, other Extraordinary Beings would not be able to do it at all.

There is no possibility...... Let the aristocracy of the whole of Beckland be "forgotten".

On Tuesday, it will be possible to return to normal time updates.
