Chapter 160: Summary of the play
Riding in a hired carriage to the East End neighborhood, Angel changed into her clothes in her new safe house before returning to her home on Red Rose Street in the Bridge District.
Perhaps yesterday was unlucky enough, and today the "Good Luck" pistol did not cause the carriage axle to break, or the accident such as the patrol police interrogation, so that she was able to get home safely.
After washing up and settling dinner, Angel calmed down and sat down at the table in the study, recalling everything that had happened in the past two days.
No, it's not just the past two days, since I came to this world four months ago, the eyes of the shy newcomer when I first met him at the door of my house, the ambiguity when I taught the rookie how to use a gun and melee skills at the shooting range, the tacit understanding when the two cooperated to solve the case, the confusion when he was invited to a family dinner, the surprise when I received a gift made by the other party, the peace of enjoying a sumptuous dinner at his house after work, the anger after seeing him seriously injured, and the despair after learning of his death......
Then came to Beckland, and met with another person who was similar to him, until yesterday......
Based on the role of the seal "0-08" depicted by Ms. Arianna, she speculates that the magical item does not monitor everyone's every move, but instead uses the people and things that the owner has come into contact with and learns about, and gradually arranges everything "reasonably" to make events move in the direction needed.
After coming to Beckland, he joined the Witch Cult and came into contact with Triss, who had traces of being "arranged", and it is likely that he had been included in the vision of this magical item. Although he has a "secret emblem" of anti-divination, he only makes it difficult for the other party to recognize that he is the dead night watchman in Tingen, and does not allow himself to be completely ignored.
If there is any unreasonable behavior, it may be discovered again at any time and written into its "story".
So it was Sherlock who had contact with him, and it could only be Sherlock.
Presumably, the other party thinks the same, so he cooperates with himself and pretends not to know.
She barely suppressed the corners of her mouth and made a serious expression.
To distract herself, she began to summarize the gains from yesterday's battle, as well as the hidden dangers left behind.
First, she solved the "Apostle of Desire" which was on her, as well as the gram...... Sherlock is a great threat to Sequence 5 Extraordinary. Although the primary purpose of this extraordinary person who aspires to climb the high sequence is to assassinate Duke Negan and get the ticket to the high sequence, but he killed his demon dog and has already made a grudge against him, if this guy is promoted to the high sequence, I am afraid that the first thing he will do is to come back and find trouble with the two......
Secondly, through channeling and herding, to maximize the value of the "Apostle of Desire", Sherlock seems to have learned about a mysterious organization that he didn't even dare to speak, and he obtained three extraordinary abilities through the "Rose Necklace", and as for the suitcase containing the gold pound, Angel didn't have much hope.
Finally, after last night, Angel found that nearly half of the "Pleasure" potion in her body had been digested, more than ten times more than what she had solved...... This made her happy and a little suspicious.
In the stage of "Assassin" and "Instigator", because she played it repeatedly, her progress was very fast, and in Sequence 7 "Witch", even if she had several public performances and many "Divination Witch" roles, it took her two months to digest the potion.
And at this stage, without any experience and the process of playing in advance, how could she digest the potion so quickly?
Is there something wrong with the way you play, or is the object you are playing is very special?
Now calm down, she also summarized the role of "Witch of Pleasure" in sequence 6 accordingly:
According to Lola, the "senior", the focus of digesting the pleasure potion is undoubtedly physical pleasure, but according to her experience yesterday, it seems that it is not absolute pleasure, but the need to resist one's own identity in the process, and at the ultimate peak, let go of everything and reconcile with oneself.
Thinking of the surprise and relief she felt when she saw the amethyst pendant on Sherlock's wrist in her madness, she covered her cheeks in shame.
Is it really because of the special object played that the progress of digestion is unusually fast?
If that's the case, next time...... Be sure to ...... next time
No, there can't be a next time at all, there are too many magical items with strange negative effects on the body, it's time to dispose of some of them.
Feeling the touch of the "Ring of Madness" on his finger rubbing his face, Angel angrily took off the harmful ring, but after thinking about it, he carefully put the magical item worth 2,000 pounds into a bullet box that could isolate spirits, and decided to find an opportunity to sell it again.
Now that she has the extraordinary characteristics of the Faceling, she no longer values the effects of the Ring of Frenzy, and the negative effects that amplify her desires can cause her all kinds of problems. Although the former does not have the unfamiliar effects of psychology, the change in appearance is real, and will not be easily seen through by transcendent dogs or spirits, and in some cases it is even better than a ring.
And the other ability that comes with it, "Madness", can also be replaced by other abilities.
Wait for Mr. A to hold another rally, and sell it there!
After deciding the final fate of the ring, Angel went back to the basement to brew spiritual materials infused with her own blood and prepare to make a new magic mirror to replace the one she had damaged in battle, while in the process, she also put on the Rose Necklace and tried to use the spirit of the "Apostle of Desire" in the grazing to test her newfound extraordinary abilities.
"Filthy words" is really as she expected, can make her mind appear "slow" the reading of the demonic language, as long as you pronounce it can take effect, although convenient, but at the same time affecting the surroundings, it also has a lot of impact on her own mind, will make her heart full of the desire to kill, destruction, no wonder every "demon" path of extraordinary people are cold-blooded, evil criminals, perhaps affected by demonic thoughts is the main reason.
The lack of a test of "desire for control" and the lack of "malice" made her a little complacent, at least in Beckland, where no one had a deep resentment against "Erin Watson" or even wanted to act on it.
"Kara-"
As Angel carefully studied the rose necklace, a half-length mirror in the basement made a faint sound like ice cracking, drawing her gaze.
This mirror is also smeared with the communication potion she made, which is prepared in order not to "miss" the communication of several people she provided the potion in the process of boiling materials to make the magic mirror, but I didn't expect that at this time, someone really contacted her?
She quickly put on the characteristics of "Faceling" and turned herself into "Irene" in everyone's eyes, and then turned the mirror at an angle, avoiding the cauldron where the materials were boiling, and reached out to touch the mirror to activate the potion on this side.
Unexpectedly, what emerges in the mirror is Miss Justice, Audrey Hall, who is also a member of the "Tarot Society".
"Good evening, Miss Irene," Audrey's sweet voice came from the mirror, slightly different from the face-to-face conversation, as if separated by a layer of barrier, "Sorry to bother you at this time, but I need your help with something." ”
"Is it about the Psychological Alchemy Society?"
Angel immediately remembered that she had said at the Tarot meeting that the members of the Psychological Alchemy Society had once again found this girl who had been "tricked" into the knife of the Aurora Society and almost died, trying to pull her into this secret organization.
"That's right, last weekend, the member of the Alchemy I met once, Stephen Hamples, a furniture merchant and psychology enthusiast, came to me again and invited me to a countess's ball tomorrow, where another member would examine me."
There was a cautious look on Audrey's face.
"My father and brother had avoided me since that danger, but this time it was not a strange place, but the home of an earl, and I tried to convince them. But just in case, I hope you can walk with me. ”
It seems that the experience of Ms. D becoming a mature person and deceiving her last time left a lot of psychological shadows on this young girl......
"Justice" had helped the "Queen" a lot at the Tarot meeting, and Audrey was now a friend of Irene, Angel agreed without hesitation.
The two agreed on a meeting time tomorrow, and Angel was about to end the communication, but at this time, the communication potion that was still a lot left on the edge of the mirror emitted a faint mist, accompanied by a "click" sound, which means that the other mirror has also activated the potion and is communicating.
"Is it Sherlock, or is it Sherman?"
Angel was a little surprised, she didn't expect that two people contacted her at the same time tonight, but fortunately, Audrey's side was about to end the communication, and just when Sherlock's face appeared on the mirror, Audrey only had time to make a "huh" sound, and disappeared into the corner of the bust mirror.
……
"Hey, Miss Irene, how did I hear ......?"
In Count Hall's mansion in Queens, Audrey looks puzzled at the dresser in her bedroom.
She seemed to hear a male voice coming from the "Queen" next to the "Queen" on the other side of the mirror just now, and a hazy figure also appeared in the mirror, but unfortunately the communication potion had been exhausted, and her vanity mirror returned to normal, reflecting only her own expression.
This fueled her curiosity and desire to explore, and she almost wanted to reapply the precious communication potion and reconnect with the other party.
"Susie, did you hear anything just now?"
She hesitated for a moment, but decided not to snoop on other people's privacy in this way, but turned to the dog lying on her stomach and asked in a low voice.
The big golden retriever squinted at his master, got up from the carpet, and walked out of the bedroom with a "snap" swinging on all fours.
After all, it's just a dog that doesn't understand anything.
Audrey just asked casually, not embarrassed her pet, seeing Susie herself pick up the doorknob and drill through the crack in the door, she looked back at the vanity mirror that no longer had a communication function, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously rose upward.
Tomorrow, tomorrow you must ask Miss "Queen" for clarification!
