Chapter 146: Promotion to "Joker"

From the basement back to the second floor, Angel felt like a world away.

She took out her pocket watch and looked at the time, in fact, less than half an hour had passed.

But in front of the "Sword of the Goddess" Crestai Cecima, who has an unknown attitude and strange ability, it is not an exaggeration to say that life is like a year.

Fortunately, until the end of the examination, the senior deacon's attitude was also kind......

Angel wiped the non-existent sweat from her forehead, walked through the hallway, through the partition, and returned to the reception hall.

By this time, the heavy rain outside the window had stopped, the dark clouds had dispersed, and the bright sun was shining on the earth, passing through the windows facing the street, and smearing the furniture and floor in the hall with a layer of gold.

There were only two people seated in the reception hall, Klein was squirming on the sofa with some restlessness, the coffee in front of him had already cooled, but he didn't take a sip, and Ms. Daley, who sat opposite him, leaned lazily on the back of the sofa, holding a newspaper and kept flipping through it, in stark contrast to the former's mood.

Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Klein turned his head to look at the partition, and found that it was Angel who was coming, and the worry on his face faded, and he stood up and asked:

"Passed the exam?"

"Yes, Your Excellency Sesima has indeed passed the examination as Lady Daly said, and now I have taken the potion and become the Extraordinary of Sequence 8."

Angel replied, cryptically telling Klein about Crestai's attitude, telling him not to worry.

"Take the potion...... Congratulations! ”

After a brief pause, Klein quickly understood what the other party meant, and an undisguised smile appeared on his face.

"I'll just say it, don't worry about her," Dalie's fair face peeked out from behind the newspaper, "Crane was fidgeting just now, questioning me, and trying to find Dunn, so he almost rushed straight into the basement. ”

She winked at Angel, reminding her of the gesture Dunn used occasionally.

"Ahemβ€”I'm worried about my teammates."

Crane turned his face to the side and coughed.

"Alright, then it's my turn to worry about you, it's time for you to go down, 'soothsayer'."

Bypassing Crane and coming to the couch, Angel sat down across from Daly before she said to Crane.

She emphasizes the "soothsayer", and also looks forward to the other party's role after being promoted to "clown".

Is it true that you want to become a ......

Crane seemed to have the same question in mind, and left the reception hall with a strange expression and went to the alchemy room to be examined.

"How? Did you drink the 'Instigator' potion again and get out of control on the spot? ”

Looking in the direction of Klein's departure, Dali asked in a pleasant tone with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"I just heard that this senior deacon brought the potion of the 'instigator', and I really thought it would be this end......

Angel sighed deliberately and replied, she directly picked up the coffee that Klein hadn't drunk yet, well, it was already cold, and the fat was rising......

"Why, didn't you say in your letter that I won't have a chance to scare you again?"

The expression on Dai Li's face at this time can be called sunny, at least more dazzling than the sun outside the window.

After enjoying the verbal victory, she pulled out a black wooden box the size of a palm from behind her and looked left and right mysteriously before handing it to Angel.

"What is this?"

The latter took the wooden box and tried to feel the objects in the box, but found that the rustic-looking, angular box had the effect of insulating the spirit, and asked curiously.

"You asked me in your letter what I was looking for in Beckland."

Find ...... in Beckland Could it be the "egg of an agate peacock"?

Remembering what she had asked her in the reply to Dalie, Angel felt that her breathing was a little heavier, and the box in her hand became heavier and heavier.

Under the encouraging eyes of the other party, she pressed the lock, opened the box, and looked inside.

The four walls of the wooden box are much thicker than they appear from the outside, leaving only a space in the middle that is less than half the length and width of the outer wall, and in it is placed an egg-shaped object slightly smaller than an egg, the crystal shell is like polished glass, and the interior is a mixture of red, green, and orange, like a jewel that has been disrupted by color.

When the lid is opened, this "jewel" seems to radiate a substantial brilliance, seductive, and one can't help but want to touch its smooth surface.

From Cole's memory, Angel knew the styles of the two main materials of the "witch" potion, and she knew that the one in front of her was the "Agate Peacock's Egg" without additional confirmation.

Closing the lid of the box, insulating herself from the spirituality of the extraordinary material, Angel looked up at Daly.

"Thank you, Ms. Daly, I didn't expect you to be able to get your hands on this extraordinary material so quickly." She expressed her gratitude from the bottom of her heart, "How many pounds did it cost to buy this material?" ”

In order to cope with the scrutiny during this period, Angel deposited all the "huge assets of unknown origin" into her bearer account at the Beckland Bank before the special report was submitted, and at this time there was nothing left on her body and at home except for the weekly salary.

Fortunately, the money in the bank was enough to pay for this potion material, and when Dali finished quoting the price, she could take it out and return it to the other party today.

"I bought it through a friend's channel, it didn't cost much, so I think it was a gift to celebrate your successful test."

Dai Li said with a nonchalant expression.

Gift...... But this is the main ingredient of Sequence 7's potions, and even if there is a way to buy it at a low price, it is worth at least 500 pounds......

Angel couldn't accept such a valuable "gift", and was about to continue the inquiry, but saw Dai Li smile slyly and said:

"If you think it's too expensive to accept, think of it as the cost of buying information."

"Intelligence?"

"From now on, you send me Dunn's movements by courier every week, be sure to be detailed."

The captain's movements?

Angel was speechless, this is not any "intelligence" at all, Dai Li said this, it should be just to let herself accept this "gift" with peace of mind.

Perhaps, there is still a little bit of repayment for her reason for breaking the gap between the two.

"Thank you."

Stuffing the wooden box into the inner pocket of her trench coat, Angel was silent for a long time and thanked him again.

Daly snorted and didn't speak again, but picked up the "Intis Post" next to her, yawned, and looked through the lace news on it.

When Angel boiled a new pot of hot water and made coffee, Crane's figure reappeared in front of the two.

It also took half an hour to examine him...... But my three questions are additional, and that is because after Klein passes the examination, does he need to really configure and take potions?

Angel looked at Crane with a nonchalant expression, feeling that he was not at all as spiritually overflowing and unstable as he had just taken the potion.

Is it because of meditation and the convergence of exposed spirituality, or is it because of the help of the "cosplay method"?

Angel guessed, approaching the other party, and at the moment when he opened his mouth to speak, he pulled out the dagger on his waist like lightning, and stabbed Klein who became surprised in a short and sharp sound made by the friction between the sheath and the dagger.

The latter raised his right hand at a much faster speed than normal and struck Angel's outstretched arm from the side, while his entire upper body leaned back, dodging the dagger that stabbed him in the neck.

With a "bang", Angel's left hand blocked Klein's right arm, grabbed and pulled back, and pulled his backward body back towards him, and the dagger in his right hand was already against the opponent's Adam's apple.

"It's better than before, but it's still not enough."

She commented ruthlessly.

Klein relieved himself, his eyes downward, and he was relieved to find that Angel had reversely grasped the dagger the moment he hit him, and it was only the handle of the dagger against his neck.

"It's just a natural reaction of the body, I still need to train a little more, and when I fully master the potion-enhanced body, I'll ......"

The new Sequence 8 retorted dissatisfiedly.

"Well, then it's up to you to perform, ...... No, it's supposed to be called a clown now? ”

Angel withdrew the dagger, not caring about the stiffness of the other party's mouth.

"Poofβ€”"

Daly hid her face behind the newspaper and let out a chuckle.
