Chapter 193: Peculiarities

"Turani von Hermosiuin at 32 Black Pepper Avenue!"

"Turani von Hermosiuin at 32 Black Pepper Avenue!"

The wind swept through the meeting room on the second floor of Sea and Fire, sending a low, clear shout into Angel's ears.

She looked out the window suspiciously, and only after the continuous shouting had subsided did she ask:

"What's going on? It looks like the whole of Byam can hear this cry, and it contains the power of the storm......"

Sitting across from her was Dominic, Byam's underground tipster, "Lucky Nick".

The latter was stuffing the precious star crystal into an iron box divided into multiple groups of spaces at this time, and when he heard this, he raised his head and sneered:

"I'm just a newly promoted Sequence 7, do you think this is something I can understand?

"But I have some impression of this name, the 'Third Generation Difference Manuscript' we found and sold in Beckland is Helmosioin's masterpiece, and now the whole Northern Continent is looking for him, how did this guy come to Byam?"

Differential Manuscript ...... Hearing this word, Angel remembered that the "first pot of gold" he got after arriving in Beckland came from this, and also remembered this famous scientist with a bad name.

Dominic also left Baekland in a hurry and fled overseas, so he was impressed by the name, and when he saw Angel bow his head and ponder, he snapped the lid of the tin box, pushed it to the other party, and said with a light cough:

"If I were you, I wouldn't have intervened in this kind of thing, the whole city could hear the announcement just now, whether it was true or not, countless people would go to 32 Black Pepper Avenue to try to catch this red man, and it might even include a demigod ......"

In Byam's demigod, that's Aquaman...... Angel thought of the majesty of Ion Courtman flying at supersonic speed in the air, and the "lawyer" demigod who was about to flee in embarrassment when he saw him coming, and replied with a chuckle:

"I'm not going to die."

But I'll have to talk to Klein......

She added silently, picking up the tin box filled with various spiritual materials, and getting up to leave.

"Hey, I've got it for you, where's my Sonia?"

Seeing that she was going out, Dominic stood up and asked.

"Then you have to go to Elaine, after being promoted to 'Joker', she always slips into the ship, and the sailors can't catch her, so you'd better negotiate it yourself."

Angel had already walked out of the room, leaving only an answer that made Dominic's face collapse.

————

Evading the groups of Navy soldiers who hurried to the "Black Pepper Avenue", and the four-wheeled carriages with the Storm Emblem, Angel returned to the "Blue Wind" hotel.

Pushing open the door to the luxurious suite on the third floor, Angel found Klein sitting on the sofa in the living room with a tired face, and a somewhat familiar radio receiver was placed in front of him.

"Why haven't you slept yet? I said you don't have to wait for me. ”

She said apologetically, put down the tin box containing various materials, took the white paper with a line of ciphertext printed under the transmitter, and found that the content of the decoded code had been written below:

"Tomorrow morning at 7 a.m., 32 Black Pepper Avenue."

This is...... Where is Helmosioin located?

Angel instantly thought of the "announcement" that had just spread throughout the city through the power of the storm.

"When I went to buy a ticket to leave Byam this evening, I found out about Hermosiuin's whereabouts, and he was with 'Silver Viper' Odell, who claimed to serve the 'mysterious queen', which made me a little puzzled."

Crane pushed his spirit and took the initiative to explain.

"I tried to listen to the radio frequencies obtained in Damir Harbor, and sure enough, I got this message, and in order to prevent the scientist from falling into the hands of the 'Blood General', I reported the matter to Mr. Fool, and then ......"

"And then there's the city-wide radio just now?" Angel chuckled and put down the telegram, "On my way back, the navy, the Governor's Palace, and even the substitute punishers have all been dispatched, and it must be very lively there now......"

As if to verify her words, a blinding light flashed outside the window, and a thick bolt of lightning struck the ground across the cloudless sky, and soon the area was on fire.

"There's Black Pepper Avenue......"

Klein muttered.

The two looked at each other wordlessly for a moment, and Angel walked to the balcony, closed the door, and closed the curtains as if the chaos outside was not there.

"In short, whoever catches Hermosius and obtains his research results can only hand over the harvest in this kind of multi-party arrest, and we don't need to worry about it anymore...... I bought a ticket to Connort on Ducey Bay tomorrow morning so that the rest of the matter would not involve us. ”

With that, Crane yawned and prepared to go back to the bedroom for a good night's sleep.

I was too busy to open a tarot meeting, go to buy a boat ticket in disguise, meet a big scientist, "report" to myself, and use the Poseidon Scepter to contact believers to confirm the situation and issue a "broadcast...... Klein muttered, seeing that Angel was still standing next to the receiver and was about to ask, when he suddenly felt a reminder from the spirit and looked at the door.

Angel did the same, carrying the Magic Mirror, and her alertness was only slightly worse than that of Crane, who was a soothsayer.

A moment later, there was a coherent thump outside the door.

The two glanced at each other, Angel disappeared, and Crane silently came to the door, pressed the doorknob, paused for a moment, and waited until his appearance and body shape had completely changed under the ability of the "Faceling" before opening the door and looking out.

At the door stood an emaciated old man with gray hair, wearing a thick coat that did not fit well, knocking on the door with one hand, and pinching a handful of colorful candies in the other.

"Tulaney von Hermosiuin."

Klein frowned and whispered the identity of the other party.

This is not only a warning to the other party, but also to inform Angel, who is invisible.

"Hello, I don't know what my name is, sir."

Hermosius swallowed the candy in his mouth, smiled and showed some broken teeth, and said.

"I noticed you in the afternoon, but I couldn't get out then, so I can only come to you now while I'm in trouble...... My life has come to an end, and I have remembered many things because of it.

"Allow me to reintroduce myself, my name in 'this life' is Tulaney von Hermosiuin, but you can also call me Orange Light, Hilarion."

He bowed exaggeratedly to Klein at the door, then turned his gaze to the side, staring straight at the invisible Angel.

"That young lady, please don't be so vigilant, my life is less than an hour before it comes to an end, and I am here now just to remind you: beware of the 'Mother Tree of Desire'."

Orange Light, Hilarion, "Mother Tree of Desire" ......

Angel frowned, disarming his invisibility, but still cautiously distancing himself from Hilarion, whose hair was graying and her face was getting paler.

"Orange light? Are you one of the 'Seven Lights of the Spirit World'? ”

Crane asked, after a moment's thought.

"Yes, the purpose of my trip has been accomplished, and I am about to return to the spirit world, and perhaps after you become a demigod, we will be able to meet again...... Also, I suggest you," Hilarion looked at Angel, who obviously included the latter, "to be promoted to a demigod as soon as possible, so that the divinity can hide the qualities of the body and avoid being coveted by the 'Mother Tree of Desire' again." ”

"Qualities?"

Angel asked rhetorically, subconsciously looking at herself and Klein.

"In the eyes of some special spirit creatures, your qualities are not secret, as long as you get close, you can find them, I think you are already aware of it."

Hillarion first looked at Klein, then nodded solemnly, and then turned his gaze to Angel, his cloudy eyes containing a hint of inquiry.

"And you, beautiful and dangerous young lady, calamity follows you everywhere you go, and when the earth is torn apart and everything in the world ceases to exist, the only hope that remains may save all...... This is the prophecy of the 'Yellow Light' Venithan, and I take this opportunity to convey it to you. ”

Who's that...... Angel always had the feeling that she was in class, and she looked up at Klein and found that the other party was also a little dazed.

"These reminders are just my kindness because of who you are, or you can understand it, as an investment. Just like the original stock listed on the Beckland Stock Exchange, there is always no shortage of investors for quality stocks, and you should have felt the goodwill of other 'investors'...... But the Mother Tree of Desire is different, she is very greedy and wants to take full ownership of the shares and control the 'quality stocks' like yours, which is also what other 'investors' don't want to see.

"Moreover, although the Church of the Seven hated evil gods such as the 'True Creator' and the 'Primordial Witch', it hated the 'Mother Tree of Desire' even more, and even the Aurora Society and the Witch Sect, which are both secret and evil sects, did not like the Rose School...... Perhaps, you can use this against them. ”

Hillarion didn't seem to notice the expressions of the two, and said to herself, then suddenly coughed a few times, and said in a significantly weakened voice:

"Finally, do you mind if I die here? Maybe you can get a bounty. ”

"Mind."

The two replied in unison.

Compared with the so-called bounty, the tracked forces such as "Aquaman" and "Substitute Punisher" are more of a headache.

"Do you have any enemies in Byam? I can also go to his door and die quietly, and you will get your revenge. ”

"Just go a little farther away......"

After a long silence, Angel replied slowly.

"Then I have to go, or I'm afraid I'll die on the road......"

Smiling, Hillarion shoved the last few candies in her mouth and chewed as she left the door with a shaky stride and descended the hallway.

Looking at his crumbling appearance, Angel was a little afraid that this "Hermosius" would die in the hotel like this, until the figure disappeared at the top of the stairs, and the two closed the door and looked at each other.

There's so much information to digest slowly......

"Dada, dada."

The quiet living room suddenly sounded the crunch of a needle hitting the paper, and the two looked at each other as they looked at the radio receiver on the table, watching it slowly spit out a telegraph with ciphertext written on it.

Walking forward and quickly translating it into Rune, Crane stared at the contents of the paper and did not move for a long time.

Angel also stepped forward, took the telegram, and found that the declassified text was only a few words short, but the content sent chills down her spine:

"Got you!"
