Chapter 198: Leonard: Dali also saw the hermit?
"How so?"
Leonard was incredulous.
Ince Zangwill......
The enemy he had always remembered in his heart, and the goal he had been fighting for so far, had long since died.
He froze for a moment, then looked at Daly.
"Ma'am, is it possible that part of Ince's body has been cremated? After all, that level of power, even Sequence 5 may not be able to withstand it, right? β
Parles chuckled inwardly.
"You used your brains this time, but unfortunately it's just to deceive yourself and make up for it, Ince should really be dead."
Leonard didn't care.
And.
At this moment, Dali was in front of him, and it was impossible for him to respond to Paris.
Dali shook her head slightly.
"It's unlikely, and according to my guess, the captain may have forcibly changed the sequence, and now it's the same sequence as me, so I can have some subtle senses."
"This ...... This! β
Leonard grew in disbelief.
According to the old man's previous common sense, although the two paths of the sleepless and the corpse collector are adjacent, they can only jump at no cost if they reach sequence 4 or above.
The captain only had Sequence 7 when he "died", how could such a thing be done?
In addition, he obviously sensed the captain's breath on that heart, which should be the extraordinary characteristic of the captain's precipitation-
It is also the seal of the Church of the Night.
3-912γ
It pulls a certain range of people around it into a common dream and forcibly suppresses the other person for a while.
Negative effects......
Amnesia, gradual insaneness, and easy to mix with some special memories.
Those memories came from the night watchmen in front of Tingen.
That's where the captain's amnesia comes from.
Everything points to the fact that Dunn's extraordinary properties have been precipitated, and together with St. Selena's ashes, they have been transformed into a special seal.
But.
Dai Li looked determined.
"Dunn must still be alive! If you don't believe me, I'll find it myself, anyway......"
She was slightly stunned, and suddenly remembered that she still owed debts-
The two Scroll Professors.
They are the targets that Mr. Hermit wants to kill.
She took a deep breath.
"I'll apply to be a Red Glove when it's over Beckland, and I'll definitely find him!"
"It's-"
Leonard was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Dai Li to be so decisive.
He hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.
"I'm sure you might have sensed something, but even if the captain might still be alive, he might be a crazy creature right now."
"It's okay, but I hope you don't report it, if the church knew, it would definitely find Dunn at all costs and kill him."
Dai Li lowered her head, "It's my little request, is it okay?" β
"What are you going to do if the captain becomes a monster?"
"I'm sure he won't, I'll take him back and seal him behind Charles's Gate."
Dali looked at the grave.
Then, in a low voice, she said, "If he is really hopeless, I will kill him and then actually bury him here." β
Leonard was silent, and he looked at Dali with a hint of distress flashing in his eyes.
"Ma'am, there is no need for this ......"
"No, it's necessary, I'll deal with it quietly, Dunn is still a hero, he died for Tingen, not to be a monster."
Dai Li looked at the tombstone, and her will was extremely firm.
Leonard was stunned for a few seconds, then lowered his head: "Yes, they died for Tingen, if they really became monsters......"
"If they're all crazy, I'll bring them all back."
Dai Li whispered.
Leonard sighed.
"I'll keep it a secret, and in addition, I'll continue to stay in the Red Glove, and try to master a team as soon as possible and look for their traces together."
"Thank you."
"No, if the captain and Klein really didn't die in that battle, for me, there is a reason why they must be found."
"No, I mean, thank you for believing in me and being willing to accompany me on this trip, after all, I actually think this kind of thing is crazy myself."
Dai Li smiled, and then put the ashes inside, "Let's let them live here for a while." β
"Hmm."
β¦β¦
"Old man, you said before that she might have gone to that place?"
"It's the same feeling."
"At first I didn't think about it, but then I thought about it, how can any spirit sense something that even I can't distinguish?" β
"It's just Him!"
Parles was categorical.
Leonard looked upstairs, feeling worried.
Ms. Dai Li......
Did you make a deal with Captain Dunn in order to hear from him?
I don't know what she paid for.
But.
If the hermit had told her the news, it seems that the captain and Crane really weren't deadβ
At least not death in the usual sense.
They still exist in some form.
"Old man, according to your previous analysis, the extraordinary characteristics in that heart belong to the captain."
"If the captain really becomes an extraordinary person in the way of collecting corpses, as Ms. Dai Li said, is there still a possibility of saving?"
Leonard whispered.
Pales pondered for a while, then replied, "The way of collecting corpses is rather special, and after reaching Sequence 4, it is called the undead. β
"The undead? Are they really not going to die? β
"Well, they won't die, but it's actually equivalent to death, their memories will disappear, and then they will return to ...... in sixty years."
Parles told him about the undead.
Leonard listened quietly.
After a while, he understood.
"You mean, if there is a high-level help from this path, it is possible to resurrect the captain?"
"It's just a possibility, because I don't know much about this pathway, maybe you can ask that one."
Parles replied.
Leonard hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head: "Forget it, the price in exchange for it must be extremely high, otherwise Ms. Dai Li will definitely exchange it." β
"Isn't that what it takes? Regardless of the outcome, you won't be able to match the chips with your current abilities, and you won't be able to save your captain. β
"You still have to work hard to become Sequence 4 as quickly as possible, the future may not be peaceful." β
"What do you mean?"
"The fact that every hidden existence is beginning to respawn is a bad sign, and don't you remember why I parasitized on you?"
"Dodge the enemy."
Leonard was slightly stunned when he replied, "You mean, your enemies may also ......"
"That's for sure, he hasn't been silent, his strength is very strong, otherwise I wouldn't have dared to just parasitize on you, and I wouldn't dare to directly find someone to revive the strength."
"I know, after a while, when I'm completely digested, I'll try to apply for a promotion."
"Hmm."
β¦β¦
"Ms. Dai Li will come to her again, a matter of great importance to her, in exchange for the lives of the two scroll professors."
"Knowledge is worth different things to different people."
Roy sighed inwardly.
Whether it is scientific and technological knowledge or mysterious knowledge, the value is different for different people and organizations.
Astrologer β
When playing, how should the knowledge of this sequence be handled?
Collecting is part of it.
But.
Past experience has proved that active collection and knowledge seeking can be played, but it is only the least effective way to play.
If you want to be promoted quickly, you must find the corresponding "rules" and summarize the rules.
"Astrologer."
"Trouble, the further back this path is, the more difficult it is to play."
Roy sighed in his heart, glanced at the star map, confirmed that Leonard did not "apply for a call", and left the mysterious hall.
In a short period of time β
No one should come again.
β¦β¦
The next day, inside Audrey's estate.
"Hey, I still don't have a clue, but the manor has already started to do it, and we can start producing seeds today."
Roy rode in a carriage to the manor.
He glanced around.
Place is huge.
But.
In fact, he didn't really need to study and sift through the seeds, he just had to bring the seeds of the Earth Church.
The so-called research is just a faΓ§ade.
It's just a process of showing it to the nobles.
Of course.
Audrey wasn't that easy to fool, especially the dog next to her.
Roy glanced at it.
Susie has always been by his side, although she tries her best to restrain her spirituality and emotions, so that she will not be spied on by the other party about her behavior habits and emotional thinking.
But.
This kind of cover-up is also problematic in itself, and it will definitely show its feet after a long time.
Roy narrowed slightly.
Susie took a few steps back in horror.
It feels a terrible threat!
Counterpart......
I'm staring at myself!
Susie recoiled in horror, not knowing whether to use human language or bark, even if she had forgotten how to make a sound.
This terrible coercion, it has not yet experienced.
"Your name is Susie, right?"
"Wow!"
Susie wagged her tail to make herself look more like a real dog.
It has to remember what to do!
But.
The tall blonde man crouched down and looked down like a giant with a deep gaze and a strange spirituality.
"You should be an extraordinary pet, worthy of the Hall family, the famous rich man of Rune."
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Susie was terrified and quickly wanted to retreat, but at this moment, she felt a terrible gravity-
It didn't know if it was gravity, but it was a terrible force that made it immobilized.
This is the extraordinary ability of Sequence 7 "Serial Killer" in the Criminal Pathway.
It can exert the power of "folding wings".
Namely, gravity.
"Extraordinary pets of the audience, interesting creatures, worth studying ......"
Roy chuckled.
Susie yelled.
After a while, Audrey trotted over.
"Susie, Mr. Egger, you are ......"
"It's nothing, I found your pet dog very spiritual, so I took a look."
Roy chuckled.
Susie fled in terror, not daring to linger any longer.
Audrey smiled and said, "Susie is the golden retriever I adopted, and she is indeed the smartest of those dogs. β
"It will be a very useful helper for you,"
"Yes, it has helped me a lot, and it doesn't require me to take care of it much, and you may not believe it, but a lot of times it's taking care of me."
Audrey chuckled.
She didn't know that Roy had "recognized" Susie's identity and was still pretending to treat normal pets.
Roy smiled slightly and said, "As long as you treat it sincerely, it will also repay you with sincerity, and the relationship between people and pets like cats and dogs is so simple." β
"And people?"
Audrey asked with a smile.
Roy shook his head: "People are much more complicated, the emotions and resources you invest may not be rewarded in the target, and even give you back a knife that stabs you." β
"A knife?"
"Yes, you think the other party is your friend, but in fact, it may not be, he may not think so."
Roy chuckled.
Then, he got up and said, "Let's go." β
"Can I use that batch of seeds?"
"It's not bad, but it's not enough to be usable, and its effect is only fifty percent of that of the Earth Church."
Roy replied.
That's only fifty percent?
Audrey was shocked and said, "What percentage of our original seeds were?" β
"About thirty percent."
So much worse?
Audrey only did a cursory calculation and understood what a big gap it was.
This means......
For the same land, Fenerport can produce more than three times as much food.
How could Rune possibly fight?
No wonder those foreign grain merchants can sell at such a low price.
After all.
They also need to get to Rune with boat fares, wear and tear......
Excluding those, the price of food in Fenerport was far lower than she had imagined.
"Mr. Egger, I have a question."
"Say."
Roy stopped.
Audrey asks, "Are there any poor people in Fenerport?" β
"Absolutely."
Roy didn't think twice.
He hadn't been to Fenerport, but according to Riana's description, things were different from Rune's, but not too different.
Industry is still encroaching on the land of Fenerport.
The gap between rich and poor persists.
"It turns out that where there is so much food, there will be poor people."
Audrey sighed.
"There will be poor people everywhere, at least some places where they can survive and some places where they can't."
Can't survive?
Does it mean Beckland?
Audrey's mood sank.
"Do you have any questions?"
"No, no, thank you for your answer."
"It's nothing, as a collaborator, I can tell you some ordinary things for free."
Roy laughed.
Audrey nodded slightly, then called out, and Susie quickly sprang out of the darkness and fled into the carriage.
Audrey laughed dumbly.
"Susie may have been scared before, sorry, I'm going to go back because I didn't tell my family that I would eat out for lunch......"
"It's okay, I still need to gather materials here to see if I can grow the next generation of seeds."
"Thank you."
Audrey saluted, and then boarded the carriage.
The servant drove the carriage to Queens.
When they got home, Audrey asked, "Susie, what's going on?" β
"He recognized me as an extraordinary person and knew I was a spectator."
Susie said fearfully.
Audrey's eyes widened in disbelief.
"He knows?"
"Hmm."
Susie nodded heavily.
Audrey was surprised.
"Does he really know me?"
"I don't know, but he's scary."
"I see."
Audrey frowned, then looked at Susie, "You help me look outside, I need to think calmly for a while." β
Maybe......
Not an awareness, but an extraordinary ability.
