Chapter 80: A Corner of the Witch Sect's Plan
Crane shook his head and manipulated the secret puppet in his hand towards the hotel.
After entering his room, he nodded slightly at Leonard, and motioned for Leonard to open another room to place the secret puppet he had just obtained, while Crane took the opportunity to quickly enter the bathroom in the middle of the room and take four steps backwards.
Pales suddenly felt something, and felt a touch of familiarity.
"The Breath of the Source Castle ......"
Leonard, who was walking down the stairs, heard Parles Zoroaster muttering in his head, and he didn't hear what Parles was talking about, so he immediately turned his head to the side and asked:
"What are you talking about, old man?"
"What do you say?"
With a puzzled expression, Pales made the most of his talent as a fraudster who was Amon's enemy: "What did you hear?" ”
"No, it's okay, it's okay."
Looking at Parles' straightforward rhetorical question, Leonard couldn't help but scratch the back of his head, looking a little embarrassed: "I guess I heard it wrong." ”
He heard Pales snort coldly, and the voice disappeared from his mind again. Seeing this, Leonard sighed and continued to walk down.
Of course, Pales wasn't prepared to let Leonard next to him know about essentia so early, which would cause a lot of unnecessary trouble for the two of them. For example, the ubiquitous Amon, and the extraordinary people such as Zarathu, who seemed to have disappeared before.
Pales knew that those old opponents of the year would not die so easily, and they had a way to pull themselves back from the river of death. Even in older ages, those beings that seemed to be dead did not necessarily disappear from this world entirely.
If the timing is right, they may one day return again.
…………
In the Source Castle, Crane, who was sitting on the throne that belonged to him, was unaware of what was happening in the outside world, his body was sitting quietly in the bathroom, but the spirit body had already reached the gray mist with the help of rituals.
The puppet made of Mitor the Talker is now standing in his room with Leonard, and Crane uses his connection to summon the spirit of Mitor the Talker to the Source Castle.
Due to the anti-divination of Tracy, a sick girl who is a "pain witch", he can only use the source castle to create a divination.
Of course, even such divination needs a corresponding medium, but this medium has been clearly placed in front of him, that is, the third mate of the "sick girl" Misor, who has been on the ship of the "sick girl" for a long time.
Crane looked at the spirit in front of him that was controlled by him, and asked him easily:
"Why did you come to this bar? Is it to carry out the task of 'Lieutenant General of Disease'? ”
This is a question that Klein wants to know more in his heart, knowing that the "Sick Lieutenant General" Tracy has been sailing at sea before. It stands to reason that the newly rebuilt Byam will not attract anything to Tracy, so the appearance of the "Clever Talker" Misore in front of him is obviously a very unusual thing.
Moreover, Klein suspects that Tracy had been hiding behind Misoor's back before, carrying out a "sickness aura".
"The captain had been assassinated by an odious assassin before. By various means, we discovered that the Assassins had fled to Byam. ”
"Clever Talker," Misoor's spirit replied in a hawded voice, his tone interspersed with a hint of puppet stiffness, and his speech was staccato in disguise.
"So, the captain sent me and the other pirates to Byam to look for the assassin, and then I met you."
Searching for the Assassin's trail was indeed something that a vengeful "witch of pain" could do, but it was still not enough to justify why Tracy would come to Byam in person, or even give up the mission assigned to her by the Witch Church.
Considering that another "Witch of Pain" who spreads the aura of disease is most likely Trissy who escaped from Beckland before, then it seems that it may be because after Tracy met Triss, the Witch Sect gave her a new mission, allowing Tracy to find the traces of Triss who escaped from the Witch Sect before.
Klein knew Triss, she had spent some time with him in the Aurora Society, and she was half a colleague.
She's the one who can do things that drive away the tiger and take advantage of the chaos of the outside world to give herself a glimmer of life, but Crane doesn't like Triss's unscrupulous, chaotic, evil style.
However, this matter is really strange. At that time, the "Nightingale of Despair" paid attention to Triss many times, which would have been a strange thing for a cruel witch...... Or rather, it was because Tracy met Triss that her mission changed.
After coming up with this guess, Klein considered his language for a moment, and said to the "clever talker" Misool in front of him, "Where is Tracy now?" ”
"I don't know."
Misoor, the "Clever Talker", was still as muddy as a puppet, unable to suppress his desire to speak:
"The captain didn't tell me she was following me, and I didn't expect the captain to appear in front of me."
It seems that he is destined to get no information about Tracy, so it seems that the "sick girl" is vigilant enough. Tsk, she really deserves to be a witch, and she really deserves to be one of the pirate generals......
Crane was silent for a moment, it shouldn't be possible to get Tracy's information directly from the "Clever Talker" Misoor. After a moment, he asked again to the "clever talker" Misoll in front of him:
"Will Tracy stay here and in Byam for a long time?"
"Yes, the captain said that the assassin must be found."
Although this sick girl did not want to betray his captain, he had to spit out all the information he knew after he had been completely transformed into the secret puppet of the master puppet.
After asking a few more questions, Klein also saw that he could not pry any more information from the mouth of the "clever talker" Misor, and decided to start channeling and direct divination.
Above the gray mist, Crane can directly use the psychic to soothe Tracy's location.
Of course, this was something that could only be done after Crane had gained a deeper grip on the Source Castle. The essence of divination is to rely on the information recorded in the spirit world to derive information about the past, present or future, so as to gather into a highly symbolic result.
The result is mostly abstract, and the medium used needs to have sufficient occult connections with the diviner.
Of course, after being transformed into a secret puppet, Misore the "Clever Talker" is not a living creature, and the occult connections on his body under the influence of the gray fog are enough for divination.
“…… I met Tracy at the time. ”
Klein silently recited this sentence seven times in his heart, leaned back slightly, and quickly fell asleep, what he was preparing to carry out was the "dream divination" of the soothsayer!
Although the results of "dream divination" may be abstract, for Crane, who does not know the exact location of Tracy, this is the only way to determine where Tracy is and when and where he will encounter Teresie.
Tracy is not on Klein's existing hunt list, and the most important thing now is to find a breakthrough point against the Rose School in the Southern Continent by hunting the "Blood General".
Now the situation in the Southern Continent is intertwined, and only after killing the Blood General can he use this channeling to figure out some information about the Southern Continent.
Crane had encountered a lot of resistance after going to the Southern Continent before, and the local situation was not the same as what he had known before, or even much worse. Without a certain entry point, Crane would not have been able to complete the task given to him by the goddess to spread the belief of the "Grim Reaper" in the Southern Continent.
Soon, a strange scene appeared in his dream. In the midst of the chaos, Tracy boarded her ship, and beside her was a pitch-black sea; The leaves of the trees by the sea sprouted, and a dark green flame burned in the air;
In the distance, a large, pale figure emerged, scythe in his hand, stabbing into the shadows wriggling in the darkness in the distance.
This...... Crane opened his eyes and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
This dream is quite informative, and there is a lot to be deciphered from it, and of course it is abstract enough.
The pitch-black sea does not necessarily represent the night, but it may also be a vision caused by the extraordinary abilities of the "Black Knight" carried by the "Lost Country"; Of course, there may be a deeper meaning in it, but it is too large and complex for Klein to decipher.
The green flame behind it may refer to the possible "Lost Country" here, which is the point where Klein thinks he may meet Tracy.
And he didn't see much of the chaos Klein had witnessed in his dreams at first.
He presumably involved some high-ranking beings, and the divination was only for Tracy and had nothing to do with those beings, so he didn't go into too much detail about which extraordinary beings those vague figures represented.
The sprouts from the leaves may indicate that the dream is not in time, and it may be a long time before Klein can meet Tracy and find an opportunity to hunt her.
As for the huge pale figure that finally appeared, Crane couldn't be sure whether it was Mr. Azik, who was a descendant of the Grim Reaper, or some other being, but at the moment, it seemed that the pale figure was standing behind him, holding a scythe, and there was a high probability that it was on his side.
As far as he could see, the wriggling darkness in the distance Crane felt that it could not be read from the appearance, perhaps referring to some high-level extraordinary, or similar to the disaster that had befallen Beckland or Beyem before.
And the reason for this appearance may be similar to the chaos that Klein saw at the beginning, divination is not omnipotent, and it may involve some high-ranking extraordinary.
In this way, it will take me a long time to meet Tracy......
Crane touched his chin and put the matter behind him. After playing with the crystal ball with his hand, Crane simulated the texture of the falling spirit, and carried the spirit of the "Clever Talker" Misor out of the gray mist along with his own spirit.
Klein walked out of the bathroom, and after a little waiting, he saw Leonard rushing here.
Since the puppet can't be too far away from him, Klein drives Daniz to another room, and has Misool the "Clever Talker" swap clothes with Daniz, and let "Misore the Clever Talker" pretend to be his servant.
Danitz himself was quite happy, and thanked Klein repeatedly, saying that he would definitely contact Captain Adevina tomorrow.
Anyway, take a break now, and then go to the Red Theater tomorrow morning to find Darkwell to complete Ulorius's commission. As for what happens next, that's none of my business...... Klein thought with conviction in his heart:
I have to go alone on this mission, otherwise if someone else sees it, I will definitely think that the usually indifferent and incomprehensible Captain Sparrow is going to fool around at the Red Theater......
It's better not to let my identity be crooked in a more outrageous direction...... I don't want the words "" or "overindulgent" in my persona, well, although this is not me, such a review is not pleasant......
Crane yawned, closed his eyes and lay down on the bed when he was done with the rest.
After Klein lay on the bed, he suddenly felt a charm from the bed that could not be disobeyed:
It's a great rest after a tiring night's work.
After a moment, Klein opened his eyes and looked at Leonard beside him, silent.
Gan, forget that this kid is the "sleeper" of the night path, and the "sleeper" in sequence six no longer needs sleep......
Crane looked at Leonard, who was looking at a book with his night light on, and couldn't help but feel the deep malice of the world towards him.
Noticing Klein's gaze, Leonard threw a wink, rather aggressive flick of his hair.
Seeing the situation in front of him, Klein suddenly cried and laughed:
How did I find a "sleepless" to be my roommate......
Zhou Mingrui, who inexplicably found a little feeling in the "dormitory" before crossing over, used the extraordinary ability of the "faceling" to shift his eyes to the other side with his back to the light, and used the quilt to cover the light-transmitting place, and finally got some familiar and reassuring darkness.
It's really comfortable to wrap yourself in a quilt in the winter...... Klein thought subconsciously.
Hearing the sound of a fake poet turning a book, Klein's ears moved, and the flesh on it swelled, slowly blending into the flesh.
Well, that's not bad...... Crane slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.
