Chapter 101: Lola's Thoughts

After receiving the 450 pounds in cash paid by Miss Magician through the Fool's sacrifice and grant, Angel's savings finally exceeded 3,500 pounds, which was the largest amount of money she had ever had since she received 3,200 pounds from the Eye of Wisdom.

Stacks of banknotes were placed in the house, and she could not even sleep, and the next morning, she immediately went to the nearest bank of Beckland, and deposited most of the cash in her bearer account, leaving only some change for emergencies.

After the wallet swelled, Angel, who had no place to spend money for the time being, remembered the extraordinary weapon that Carveh had said, and its offer also happened to be 3,500 pounds, an amount that seemed out of reach last week, and now she could buy it as long as she emptied her wallet, which made her quite excited.

"Just empty your wallet ......"

Sitting in the divination club, Angel muttered and took a sip of the free coffee, after drinking Audrey's "St. Desi Mountain Coffee", this roasted and charred cheap coffee beans were no longer favored by her, but unfortunately she and the club could not afford to buy coffee beans imported from Feneport, so they had to settle for it.

"If I had bought that weapon, I would have been penniless, and I think I would have the 50 pounds that Madam Arianna gave me when I first arrived in Beckland......"

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Angel opened the newspaper in front of him and fully enjoyed all the benefits that he could get for free as a member of the club.

After being promoted to Sequence 6, she doesn't need to continue to play the role of "witch", which makes her time in the Divination Club seem a bit boring and wasteful, but since she has paid the membership fee for the year, she naturally still has to make good use of the free coffee and newspapers here.

Of course, she has already made up her mind that she will not renew her fee next year.

Flipping through the newspaper, she subconsciously looked at the page with the secret advertisement for the Extraordinary's gathering, and soon found that Mr. A would hold a rally tomorrow evening, which pleased Angel, who had a large number of low-to-medium order potion formulas but was unable to cash them out, and perhaps could sell a few copies of the recipe at the rally to refill her wallet that was about to be emptied by the craftsman.

Later, she currantly flipped through the other pages, and found no other content of interest, since the serial murderer was "caught" and the incident of Capping was killed by the Grand Burglar, Beckland has not been a topic that has attracted everyone's attention for a while, Intis began to hype up the case of the murder of the ambassador, and the expired explosives that were not cleaned up in the abandoned West Bailang dockyard were ignited by cigarette butts, all of which were not interesting to people.

Only the Eastern District Homeless Population Survey published in the corner of the page made her sink down and read the full text, but unfortunately this was far from the results of the survey in Sherlock's mouth, and it was obviously deleted and embellished.

Combined with the Tarot Society's "Justice" Miss Audrey's statement that "the upper echelons of the Kingdom and the Church are following this matter", it is likely that the reporter's report was submitted to the upper echelons of the Kingdom for their internal reference, and only a small part of it was sent to the newspapers.

After reading the newspaper and about to go to the front desk to pour a new cup of coffee and change another newspaper, Angel's door to the divination room was knocked, and she sighed secretly and put away the newspaper when she heard the familiar four consecutive knocks.

"Good morning, Miss Fortune Witch, why can't you be happier to see me?"

Lola Swan wore an ankle-length aqua dress and a shawl made of the fur of an unknown animal to cope with the chill of early winter, and she sat down across the divination table with a smile on her face, unbuttoning her shawl, revealing a white patch under her neck.

At this time, Angel already knew that her actions were not deliberate, but the involuntary charm of the "Witch of Pleasure", but it was still difficult to take her eyes off, until the other party took off the felt hat and put it aside, she reacted and asked:

"Is this how 'Witch of Pleasure' is played? Dressed up glamorously and behaving in a variety of ways? ”

Although she already had a faint guess in her heart, she still wanted to ask this "joyful" opinion.

"What, you're going to know how to play Sequence 6 in advance?" Lola smiled, and then covered her mouth with her hand, covering her teeth, "The easiest way is to let yourself and others get supreme 'pleasure', but always remember your identity, this is a pain." Of course, there may be some kind of alternative way of playing, just like the slow play you're doing now, and when you get to Sequence 6, you can explore it yourself. ”

Alternative...... I think the kind of approach you're talking about is different......

Angel's inner guess was confirmed, but it wasn't pleasant.

"Speaking of acting, I have a chance here, maybe I can complete the digestion of witch potions in one go," Lola changed her words and talked about the purpose of her visit, "Have you gotten some news from within the Witch Sect?" What have they been up to lately? ”

Due to the recent promotion and the busyness of returning to the Tarot Society, Angel almost forgot about the Witch Sect, and wanted to shake his head at this time, but then thought of the human trafficker Barron mentioned by the Hanged Man at the Tarot Meeting, and the possibility that he guessed that it was related to the Witch Sect, nodded and said:

"Remember the last time you mentioned that human trafficker Kapin had a relationship with the Witch Sect?" She pondered the words, carefully revealing some information, and tested the other party, "Actually, the Witch Sect does not only have these businesses in Beckland, but also in the surrounding cities of Tingen, Enmat and other places, there are gangs or semi-legal organizations under their control to trade in human beings, and there is a human trafficker who seems to be related to a number of slave disappearances in the colonies of the Southern Continent......"

She tells Lola about the appearance of "Barron", who the hanged man is tracking, and succeeds in making the other party fall into a long period of thought.

"I haven't seen this person, but I have remembered his appearance and characteristics, and I will pay more attention to him," After a while, the happy witch who had an inexplicable hatred for the witch sect nodded, and replied, "I have also heard what you said, the witch sect has done a big business of human trafficking, and it is a little unscrupulous, it seems that it is not afraid of being discovered by the kingdom and the Orthodox God Church, what makes me most curious is that so many slaves were bought by who in the end?" ”

Without waiting for Angel to answer, she continued:

"If, I mean, there was such an opportunity to wreak havoc on the Witch Cult and give you a chance to play it, would you be willing to do it?"

I've done it a long time ago, and although I'm dealing with the Witch Cult, I don't think that the problem of human trade alone can solve a thousand-year-old hidden sect......

Angel pondered, but did not answer.

Seeing that she was silent, Lola sneered: "Heh, now is the time when their strength is the most empty, there are only three 'Joy' and one 'Pain' in the entire Beckland, that demigod is likely to have left the capital, and when she returns, maybe there will never be such a good opportunity again." ”

"Pain"? Is this Sequence 5 after "The Witch of Pleasure"? It's called the "Witch of Pain"?

Angel remembered the name, but still did not reply to Lola, she guessed that the other party was likely to take advantage of the human trafficking to make trouble, but not to mention the secret witch sect, even the Aurora Society, a cult that frequently creates bloody cases, and an oracle like Mr. A can openly hold a gathering of extraordinary people in Beckland, and it is impossible to make a fatal blow without grasping their real weaknesses.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Angel took a carriage to the house of Viscount Glerint in Queens, and was guided by a maid into the study used for reception.

Audrey, who was simply dressed and wore no jewelry, was already sitting behind her desk, while Glerint was absentmindedly flipping through a book, and next to him sat the somewhat lazy Falth Wall, who seemed to be looking through a book that she had published a few years earlier.

"Miss Irene, thank you for being here, but it's a pity that Miss Hugh couldn't attend because she had something to do, otherwise our occult gathering would have been all here."

Seeing her coming, Glerint put it down, stood up and took the initiative to greet the door, he was not usually so enthusiastic, which made Angel feel a little curious.

Immediately, she found that the viscount's temperament had changed a lot, especially more confident, smiling, and guessing that the other party was likely to have some kind of identity change.

"Congratulations, Your Excellency the Viscount, you must have gathered all the materials to become a real 'pharmacist'."

She smiled and congratulated the other.

Instead of being annoyed, the young viscount smiled even more happily when the secret was revealed, apparently to show off his success.

"That's right, Miss Irene, thank you for the recipe, I've become a ......," he magically pulled out a few bottles of different colors from his pocket in delicate crystal bottles, and displayed them between his fingers, "the truly extraordinary." ”
