Drip.

Wayne opened the triangular box, took out three gold pounds and a six-barreled shotgun, and looked up at the clock on the wall, "Three minutes." ”

From the moment he put the potion and ten gold pounds into the triangular chest......

No

To be exact, it was handed to the Nightmare Worm that crawled out of the box, and it took him a total of three minutes to receive the item.

Franka who bought the Enlightenment Potion is in the middle of the Western Continent.

And the man who sold the musket to Wayne, although he was in the Eastern Continent like him. But it is the Prut Kingdom, which is farther away than the Drake Republic, and it is already the easternmost part of the Eastern Continent.

With such a long distance, it only took him three minutes for him to receive the trading items......

The Nightmare World was even more powerful than he had imagined.

It is also worth mentioning that the Nightmare Worm is a magical worm unique to the Nightmare Sect.

It's the monster I saw in the Nightmare Realm before, with only a mouth and eyes on its spherical head.

According to Franta, the Nightmare Worm has the ability to travel freely between the Nightmare World and reality, and usually likes to feed on nightmares, and is a small but difficult demon worm to destroy.

However, after being domesticated by the Nightmare Sect, the Nightmare Worm became the best medium of exchange.

Through the coordinate positioning of the triangular box, the items of both parties to the transaction can be delivered quickly.

Because of this, the Nightmare Sect has made a lot of money with the Nightmare Realm.

"This kind of transaction is viable, safe and undetectable......"

Unless the Nightmare Sect blew itself up, no one could find the identity of the other party in the real world through the Nightmare World.

However, Wayne was already very satisfied.

In the future, he only needs to buy more materials, make potions, and trade them through the Nightmare World to get the gold pounds he needs to improve......

And the most crucial point is that in the real world, he is just an ordinary investigator of the secret investigation department, a low-level intelligence officer of the ghost school.

But in the Nightmare World, he has become the object of jealousy of those stall owners in the initial area, and he is a captain-level powerhouse who can freely enter and exit the third district.

This change not only brought him a lot of convenience, but also made him feel respected for the first time.

Just like Wizard Franta, showing that kind of politeness in front of him made him feel inexplicably fluttery.

Origin Level ......

Wayne knew that all of this transformation was due to his Origin, and that number 22 represented his Origin level.

He also asked Franta vaguely about this.

From his simple sentences, it can be inferred that it is not the individual spirit body and soul that enter the world of the Nightmare Realm, but the origin.

So in the Nightmare World, everyone is a blurry black shadow.

Because this is the way it is, the spiritual power is transmitted through the soul, and the image is shaped through the flesh and blood.

It also made Wayne understand why the origin had the effect of increasing his own strength.

The Origin is like an accelerant, which can ignite the spirit and flesh to burst out with more powerful power.

"It seems that people in this world have their own theories about the perception of living things."

Thinking of this, Wayne gripped the shotgun that cost him ten gold pounds.

Unlike the small and delicate muskets issued by the logistics department, this shotgun is noticeably more rough.

If he was not mistaken, it was several iron sheets that held the barrel in place......

But the good thing is that what Wayne values is not the appearance of this gun, but the construction, which is the scattering of the six barrels.

This can greatly improve his close-quarters combat ability.

According to yesterday's actual combat experience in Seres Manor, transcendents below the captain level can only stack up to five layers of death characteristics.

In other words, if you're unlucky, the Transcendent who is hit by this shotgun will directly trigger the "Death Trait - Instant Death" effect!

Combined with the Upper Corpse Explosion Technique......

Thinking about that picture, Wayne's mood was much happier.

Whether he can reach the captain level is not said for the time being, but his strength has indeed been greatly improved.

Wayne summoned the mechanical door, took out the musket and stuck it in his waist, before turning and going downstairs.

"Sava, I'm going to work."

Miss Zombie's room was across the street from the studio, and she was standing at the door, looking straight at him, "Goodbye, goodbye." ”

Wayne was stunned for a moment, and a smile appeared, "Goodbye." ”

Miss Zombie watched him go downstairs before she went into the house and took out a broom and rag to start her chores for the day. The sewn skirt barely covered the scars on her body......

[You are scanned by Ognyan Sherman's psychic perception.] Reward: +1 Survival Point. 】

Still there?

As soon as Wayne stepped out of his residence, he received this prompt.

The people who are hiding in the shadows and staring at him are really there all the time.

However, as he swept over everyone and everything within a kilometer of his surroundings, Wayne couldn't help but frown.

You can confirm the strength of the other party, at least at the captain level, or even higher......

"Wayne."

"Good morning, Uncle Euan."

Wayne quietly locked the door and greeted Youan, "Are you going to the Secret Division?" ”

At this time, You An was dressed up, wearing the green hat he gave him, and wearing a neatly ironed black dress, with gold outlines on the dress, and the whole person looked gorgeous and elegant.

"Not really,"

In his hand, Euan holds a short black cane, which is a walking stick that has only recently become popular in Shatlán, and represents a certain status.

"I need to make a trip to the city-state of Andrea, and I want you to take care of Carly for me while I'm away."

"The city-state of Andrea? You go there ......"

Wayne knew that Andrea was the closest city-state to Custer and a city-state near the coast, but he had heard that the security there was worse than Custer's.

"There is a batch of materials in short supply arriving in Hong Kong, and I have to go over to receive them."

Euan explained, and then stared at him with a serious expression, "You understand the meaning of taking care, right?" ”

"Uh, take care of the care?"

"You can't have any bad intentions!"

Wayne rolled his eyes, "Well, can you ask someone else?" ”

"5 gold pounds."

"Deal."

Youan didn't talk nonsense, took out his wallet from his pocket, took out the 8 gold pound bill, and took out a piece of parchment and handed it to him.

"This is what I wrote down that Carly needs, and the extra money is not for you, but for the purchase of it, you can just do it."

Wayne took it and glanced at it, Cordor deep-sea abalone, snow mushrooms from Simon Snow Mountain, cheese from Crand, and so on......

"These things are ......"

"Two days' food, you just need to buy it back, and Carly can make it herself. Of course, you can also eat a little. ”

Euan pinched out a generic gesture with his thumb and forefinger — just a little bit.

“……”

Two days of food, three gold pounds??

That's all the aristocracy of the Natori neighborhood, right?

Wayne sneered and nodded stiffly, "Okay, Uncle Euan." ”

For the sake of the gold pound, he endured.

That's the money to make 6 perfect-grade potions, which is worth more than 20 gold pounds to him.

"That's it, I'm leaving."

Looking at his distant back, Wayne pursed his lips.

Is it so profitable to open a clinic?

I'm afraid I would have taken out all the money to support Carly......

……

……

Perhaps because of today's welcome ceremony, when he walked out of Golden Street, Wayne saw the crowds of people waiting on both sides of the road.

Most of them wore white robes representing the Church of the Dawn, and a few devout believers held a book of covenants, and their faces were faintly fanatical, as if they were pilgrimages.

The horse-drawn carriages and mechanical wheeled carts that used to come and go were nowhere to be seen, and a famous city guard maintained order in front of the crowd.

At the end of this avenue, called Suit, you can see the clergy of the Church of the Dawn in a neat line.

In front were rows of guardians in white gold-striped armor, and in the back were priests in white gold-rimmed robes, all staring straight ahead with solemn expressions.

But on the other side of these opulences, several teams of city guards were carrying some of the aberrations, as well as the ordinary people who had unfortunately died.

It can be seen from their careful movements that they don't want to affect the crowd watching the ceremony, they just want to be careful and quickly clean up these poor people.

"Praise the dawn, there were only two aberrations last night."

"Praise Dawn, but four people were killed, three were injured, and one unlucky guy who had been confirmed to be tainted and about to undergo distortion."

"I said, can you stop talking about the dawn? If Dawn is useful, it will appear ......"

"Hey, you're dying, shut up......"

Wayne walked calmly, with the wall destroyed by the distortion on the left and the victims covered with a white cloth, and the same snow-white but frenetic crowd on the right......

I have to say that such a picture is full of irony!

It didn't take long for Wayne to make his way around the church area and into the Dumitru neighborhood.

Here, too, are the inhabitants of the city-state waiting to watch the ceremony, but they are clearly much richer.

Not only did he hold a covenant in his hand, but he also wore a badge representing the exclusive believers of the Church of the Dawn, as well as a necklace sold by the extravagant and gorgeous church.

This set of clothes alone cannot be bought without 10 gold pounds......

And even inside, near the position of the secret department, there are many people in aristocratic costumes who are already waiting there.

Unlike the fanatical churchgoers, these people were much more casual, whispering to each other while waiting.

"Your Excellency, haven't you left the council hall yet?"

"According to the time calculation, Bishop Andrews has already joined him, and he should be at the end of the block in ten minutes."

"The Ernst family is also here, at the age of the old count......"

"Silence, Sir Yarrow."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Starnick......"

After being promoted to the High Wizard Apprentice, the biggest change for Wayne was that his senses became more sensitive.

Even though they were talking in small voices, the sound reached his ears as well as the kind of radio that was being broadcast through a loudspeaker.

This forced Wayne to focus on other aspects to reduce the impact of the noise on him.

"Did you hear that? Yesterday there were a lot of gunshots in the Seres estate......"

"Really? I didn't know about spending the night in the city that never sleeps last night, tell me more? ”

"I heard that the extremely unobtrusive Lutge was assassinated by the pirates who came over from the Black Pearl, and when Saiyam rushed back early in the morning, he jumped to his feet in anger."

"Haha, I can imagine that image. That's how their family is, they often mess with the crazy guys from the sea......"

"But the Black Pearl, that's an amazing fleet."

"What are you afraid of, if they dare to come, Lord Samir will not let them go......"

With the investigator's uniform on his body, as well as his identity documents, Wayne successfully entered the secret investigation department.

Compared to the lively scene outside, the inside of the secret division seemed extremely calm, or the faces of everyone did not dare to show the slightest expression.

"Wayne, I'm waiting for you."

In his office, Marco fiddles with his red hair with a small mirror in his hand.

Wayne glanced at it, "What about Lacey and Tina?" ”

"They went to the administrative district, saying that there was a task arranged by the high-level."

"Well," Wayne put his stuff on his desk, "maybe we'll need Lacey to welcome that new colleague later." ”

Soldier against soldier, general against general.

On such occasions, Director Ales and Bishop Andrews have a "friendly" exchange.

So today's protagonist Carly, as the candidate of the Holy Maiden of the Church of the Dawn, will naturally be accompanied by a person from the Secret Division.

Obviously, on the side of the logistics department, only Lacey is suitable.

"That said, with Minister Yegor's rugged appearance, and that languidness, it should not be suitable to stand next to that lady."

"So, you already know her identity?"

"Of course, I asked my father when I got back last night. The identity of the person who came to the secret department was not simple, and it was no wonder that Director Ales would agree. ”

As he spoke, Marco put down the small mirror and put on a handsome pose, "How is it?" I shouldn't lose face in our logistics department, right? ”

“…… No. ”

I have to say that Marko, who changed into the uniform of an investigator, is less serious and more reliable.

Wayne took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, it was less than twenty minutes before the ceremony began, "How long will this welcome last?" ”

"According to past experience, a celebration with the presence of an archon takes at least two hours."

Marco walked to the window and looked out, "This time, because of Director Ales, there are many nobles with high status, and I think it will last until the afternoon." ”

Wayne couldn't help frowning, "Afternoon ......"

"Can I apply not to go to the evening cocktail party?"

"Probably not, right?"

Marco looked back at him, raised his eyebrows, and said, "At the reception, we are going to present with that person as the representative of the secret division." ”

"Okay, I'll just talk about it."

To be honest, Wayne is starting to have no expectations for such an event.

Wouldn't it be good for him to have such time to study the drawings of the mechanical puppet?

"Man, take it easy,"

Marco came over and put his arm around his shoulders and whispered, "At tonight's cocktail party, there will be many noble ladies present, and I will introduce you to a few ...... when the time comes."

Miss Aristocracy?

Wayne blinked, in fact, the drawings or something, it's not bad for so many hours, it's a big deal to study all night without sleeping at night.

"Let's talk about it in detail, is there a kind of ...... that is worth a lot of money and both parents and relatives have died?"

Marco: "......"

Such a good thing, is it your turn?
