Chapter 137: Letters and Messengers

"Ms. Dali?"

Angel was a little puzzled, Dali also appeared in her home in this image last night, but there was still a strange green flame in the living room at that time, as if in a nightmare woven by "nightmares".

At this time, the "nightmare" was even outside the door, and he didn't have time to drive away!

The translucent face did not answer, but opened its lips to reveal a bright red tongue covered with irregular fangs, topped with five slender fingers like a human hand, and clutching a piece of letter paper folded in half.

Letter...... This is the messenger? Dali's messenger?

Angel was relieved, she looked back at Dunn on the street, who was about to drive away, closed the door, and then reached out to take the letter.

The task was accomplished, and the messenger's five fingers waved happily as if to say goodbye, and then retracted into his mouth, along with the entire tongue, and fluttered into the wall, disappearing into the living room with a translucent ripple of water.

Well, don't you wait for me to reply?

She looked suspiciously in the direction the messenger had left, disarming her vision, and the white glowing living room in her vision returned to its normal color.

Afraid of causing a fire, Angel did not dare to light the gas lamp, but with the help of moonlight and his night vision, he opened the folded letter paper on the sofa next to the bay window and read the letter sent by the magical psychic.

"If you can read this letter, it means that tonight's operation should have gone well, and you have managed to survive, which is very gratifying, after all, I don't have to play the 'corpse collector' anymore."

The first sentence made Angel frown.

What a bad tone of concern...... Sure enough, it's still the unforgiving Ms. Dai Li.

And how did she guess that I would take part in the operation, and not be on standby at the station?

Intrigued, Angel continued to watch.

"I hope you can tell me the details of this operation, and if the privacy part can be skipped, I can use it to assess Dunn's digestion of potions, and determine if he is at risk of losing control."

Assessing potion digestion ...... Is this an expression of concern for the captain?

Angel grinned at the corner of her mouth.

"The second thing is, if you are not seriously injured during the operation, please join Klein as soon as possible and submit a special application for early promotion."

"Now that a relatively communicative senior deacon is residing in Beckland, and his special application will be examined by you, this is an opportunity not to be missed—I assume you have completed the digestion of potions at this stage."

"You're in good luck with some rumors I've heard in Beckland that some of the senior deacons are deliberately trying to make things difficult for night watchmen seeking promotions."

Seeing this, Angel ignored the remaining half of the content, folded the letter paper, closed his eyes and thought.

She and Klein originally agreed to find an opportunity to submit an application at the end of this month, and then maybe in early September, they will have an internal examination within the church, so that they will be digesting potions in about two months on the surface, although it is unusual for ordinary people, but it is not too exaggerated for extraordinary people who have mastered the method of acting.

According to Dai Li, even if they apply in advance and expose themselves to a shorter digestion time, they must seize the opportunity to pass the examination in the hands of this "communicative" senior deacon.

What is the special reason? Or is it just Dalie's own opinion?

Will Klein and Klein wait until the end of the month or even next month as originally planned, or will they submit their applications within this week as soon as possible?

Angel thought for a moment, but couldn't find an answer for a while, so she reopened the letter and continued reading.

"Finally, I will teach you how to summon the little cutie who just sent you the letter, it is a simple ritual magic, after summoning the messenger, you give it the letter, and it will be delivered to me accurately. The speed of the messenger was not as fast as that of the telegraph, but it was faster than that of a steam train, and it took only an afternoon to make a round trip from Beckland to Tingen. ”

The letter concludes with the preparation of ritual magic and incantations.

Compared to the ritual magic that the Fool taught to the Tarot congregation, this ritual of summoning the messenger was much simpler, and Angel only had to use herbs related to the realm of death and night to light the candle that symbolized herself......

Candle......

Angel pursed her lips and continued reading, repeating the incantation to deepen her memory.

The first is the ancient Hermetic "I".

It was then replaced by the Hermetic phrase "I call in my name."

The third section refers to specific summons: "Spirits that wander in vain, beings of the upper realm driven by man, messengers of Daly Simone alone." ”

As she recited the incantation sentence by sentence, the room seemed to be as cold as it had been when she first came home, and the wind came from nowhere to make a "whining" sound.

Well? Could it be that the spell has taken effect? But I haven't done the full ritual yet......

Angel turned on her vision and found that the messenger with the translucent face from before had come out through the wall again, slowly floating in front of her, and stretched out his hand...... The hand-like tongue, the five fingers are repeatedly opened and clenched, as if begging for something.

It turns out that it hasn't left, waiting for me to reply?

Angel wondered if he was going to read the letter after he had bathed, or even the next day, would the dutiful messenger wait all night?

Looking at the spirit creature who had been unable to wait for the letter for a long time and had withdrawn its tongue gloomily, Angel said apologetically "Wait a minute", went to the study to get a pen and paper, and returned to the living room to start replying in front of the messenger.

"Lady Daley, I'm glad to hear from you, you don't seem to be hiding your concern for Captain Dunn anymore. I hope you'll talk to him openly and honestly as soon as possible, or I might be unable to bear the loneliness and make a move on him—you won't have a chance to light the chandelier and scare me this time. ”

After striking back at Daly with a smile on her lips, she began to write in detail about the preparations, process, and aftermath of tonight's battle with "Shepherd" Ms. D., including Klein's divination and suspicions about Lanerus.

These are all the contents of the battle records that the "Red Glove" is about to submit, and will be distributed to the dioceses as a case of fighting the "Aurora Society" after the church has reviewed it, and it is not classified, so she did not consider concealing it.

Then she talked about the "special application".

“…… As for the special application, you guessed it, Klein and I have both finished digesting the potion, and I will discuss it with him before deciding whether to submit the application immediately. Perhaps it would be better to choose a suitable senior deacon than to stay in this sequence for a while longer to make us less conspicuous. ”

She didn't blindly trust Dali's judgment, after all, the other party could only make guesses based on the information she had obtained, and she couldn't make decisions for Klein.

Originally, the letter had ended here, but Angel suddenly remembered that the main material for the potion that she was promoted to "witch" had not yet been found, maybe Miss Justice could find the material from her channel, but in order to conceal the formula of the potion before, in order to spread the risk, she only asked Justice to find "all the blood of the black abyss demon fish", and the other half of the material "Agate Peacock's Egg" could only rely on herself.

It's a pity that Angel hasn't found this potion material many times in the underground market of the Dragon Bar, not even anyone who has heard of it.

There is reason to suspect that the underground extraordinaries in Tingen have little access to the potions of the "middle sequence".

Or maybe these promotion materials are firmly controlled by the "Witch Sect", and when Cole Granger was promoted to Sequence 7, the main material for potions was provided by Lady Sharon.

In any case, if she wants to obtain potions materials in Tingen City, I am afraid that the only way to get them is to rely on the help of people in other regions, maybe in a city like Emmatt, which is lax in management and has a large flow of people, she has no acquaintances there.

With this in mind, Angel added a few words at the end of the letter.

"Finally, please help me find an 'Onyx Peacock's Egg' in the Extraordinary Items Market in Beckland, the price of this extraordinary material may be between 500 and 800 pounds, if the price is right, I hope you can buy it on your behalf, or let me know the channel."

Putting down the pen, she looked back at the mouth at the beginning of the letter, feeling the urge to cross it out.

Eventually, Angel gave up on the idea, folded the letter, handed it to the messenger who was so bored that his fingers were twisted together, and watched him swallow the letter and disappear into the corner.
