Chapter 28: Calamity, Calamity......
Wayne ate the biscuits and looked at Lacey and Marco with suspicion, as well as Tina, who was always tugging at the corners of his clothes.
The calamity that came out of the cold and unjust made him seriously doubt whether he should go out in the future?
There are many ways to make money, and there are also many ways to obtain information, but there is only one life!
In just two and a half days, and in less than a day of adding one piece, he "touched" two forbidden objects, a calamity and a resentful spirit......
If you stay in the Secret Investigation Division, God knows what weird things will happen?
After thinking like this for a while, Wayne finished all the biscuits in the box, patted his much more comfortable stomach, and asked, "Can you tell me now what the hell is going on?" β
Marco looked at him worriedly, "Wayne, tell me first, what changes have occurred in your body?" β
"The body has become stronger, but the mental strength has weakened a lot, and there are still things that cannot be said......
Wayne wasn't sure if they knew the "origins", and it was difficult to explain, so he was vague.
"Nothing else?"
"It's gone."
"That's good," Marko breathed a sigh of relief, "it's good that you're not sealed with innate abilities. β
"Sealing the innate ability?"
Wayne thought of the hint on the panel, the partnership contract he had made his origin sealed at level 1, this should be counted, right?
"The thing...... Hmm," Malco paused, looked at Lacey, and said, "It's better for you." You know better than anyone about Tina. β
"Okay,"
Lacey sighed slightly, "Wayne, first of all I have to say sorry to you. β
"Lacey, I'm the one who should say I'm sorry. If I hadn't stopped Tina......"
"Shut up!"
ββ¦β¦β
Marco kept his mouth shut in amusement, even if his natural abilities had been restored, he was still no match for Lacey.
"Wayne, this is complicated...... Tina's body is special. To put it simply, she has to make contracts with people to survive. β
Survive?
Is it so serious?
Wayne looked at her in surprise, "It means that if she doesn't make a contract with someone, she will die?" β
"It's not so absolute,"
Lacey said with a gloomy expression: "It's just that if there is no contractual partner, her body will become extremely fragile." Fragile enough to break a bone if you fall while walking...... This would have left Tina in agony. β
Wayne's mouth is slightly open, and this kind of physique?
"Not only that, but if she doesn't make a contract with someone for a long time, there will be other changes in her body."
Lacey took a deep breath and said, "That's a very special aberration, and it's also the most terrifying aberration!" β
"The most terrifying level?" Wayne asked suspiciously, "Is there still a grade of aberration?" β
Lacey nodded, "Ordinary aberrations refer to ordinary people who don't have extraordinary characteristics, and they are eroded by mysterious bewitchment or the red moon, and the aberrations formed can only be regarded as first-class. β
"The second-level aberrant is the kind of transcendent Rogette with extraordinary characteristics. The stronger the strength, the stronger the distortion formed after losing control. β
"Level 3 aberrations, also known as catastrophic grades, can turn entire city-states into purgatory. For example, the previous taboo item 1-83 Demon Clown, which belongs to this level. β
"Further up there are the highest level of aberrations, also known as Calamityβand Tina is such a being."
"If she hadn't signed a contract for more than three days, she would have become a first-degree aberration. More than five days, it is level two, more than ten days......"
Speaking of this, Lacey showed a bitter smile, "This has not happened yet. β
Calamity, calamity......
It turns out that under certain conditions, the calamity species can form an aberration!
Wayne looked at Tina, who was expressionless and harmless to humans and animals, but he didn't expect her to be such a terrifying existence.
"I don't understand, if Tina is so scary, why don't you ......"
"Don't lock her up, or seal her up?"
Wayne nodded, "Hmm." β
According to his understanding, this is a time bomb, or a nuclear bomb, how can she be allowed to move freely?
"Tried, but it didn't work, and it didn't even work to take her out of Custer......"
Lacey glanced behind him and saw Arianna approaching, and spoke faster: "In short, I can guarantee that the contract with Tina will not cause you serious harm. β
"At the same time, don't tell anyone about Tina's contract with you."
Wayne also noticed the footsteps behind him, and nodded, "I see." β
Marco patted him on the shoulder and whispered, "When I get back, I'll tell you a few more things about getting along with Tina." β
"Hmm."
The contract had been concluded, and he couldn't do it if he wanted to.
At this time, Ariana from the second investigation department walked up to him, "Lacey, it's time to go." β
"Let's go."
As they spoke, they walked towards the neighborhood of Laos, on the edge of the city-state.
Wayne is calm on the surface, but he is very entangled in his heart.
Such a time bomb tied to himself always made him feel unsteady.
With such a terrifying calamity, is it appropriate to let her move freely?
Is there really no way to solve it?
None of this Wayne knows, and he needs time to gather more information about Calamity, about Tina.
Well?
At this point, the panel prompt appears again.
[You heard the name of "Forbidden Item 1-83 Demon Clown" again, and the trajectory of fate has changed slightly, and the current encounter progress is 4/100.] Evaluation: In terms of death, Ning is an expert. Special Reward: Spirit Level +1. γ
4/100?
Just now Lacey had made another demon clown in front of him......
Wayne's brows furrowed slightly, didn't she know the fate of the forbidden thing?
"Lacey, can you tell me now what the goal of this mission is?"
Arianna is not outstanding in appearance, and compared to Wayne and Marco, it can even be said to be mediocre.
She has the same hair color as Lacey, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a wide nose and thick lips, and a beard on her chin.
Athletic, but half a head shorter than Wayne, Aldous's ethnic traits are evident in him.
"We'll talk about you later."
Lacey tilted his head and motioned for Marco to follow, then said, "About that...... Yegor demanded that the investigation be carried out as far as possible without alarming the Church of the Dawn. β
"Don't alarm the Church of the Dawn?" Arianna asked suspiciously, "Lacey, how can the case you are responsible for involve them?" β
"Arianna, you haven't forgotten the rules of the Logistics and Investigation Department, have you?"
Lacey glanced at him, "According to the regulations, you are only allowed to know what part of this case you are responsible for. β
Arianna: "......"
Sure enough, he shouldn't have promised Yegor!
