Chapter 45: The Configuration of the Heartbreaker (Asking for Monthly Pass Recommendation Votes)
On Friday afternoon, Klein, who had pretended to be sick and did not go to the literary salon, was once again above the gray fog.
In front of him was a palm-sized patina note, the shell of which looked very hard, and it was the "Lemanno Travel Notes" provided by "Magician" Furth.
Flipping through the pages of what was actually closer to a magic book, Crane glanced at the burnt yellow color, raised his hand and summoned the "Poseidon Scepter" from the clutter pile, holding it in his palm.
While he poured some of his spiritual energy into "Lemanor's Travel Notes", making it glow with a less obvious brilliance, he made the blue-blue gems on the top of the bone staff burst into bright light one after another.
In the tooth-souring Ziziz voice, one after another silver-white lightning appeared out of thin air, thick and hideous, fangs and claws, intertwined, forming a storm-like scene.
At the same time, on the burnt yellow page of Lymano's travel notes, complex symbols and logos were rapidly outlined, overlapping and merging with each other, gradually taking shape.
Seeing that this page was about to be dyed with silver and white colors, electric snakes burst out from within, destroying all the patterns at once!
Failed again...... Crane sighed silently and repeated the process again.
This is not the first time he has tried, since he got the "Lemanor's Travel Notes" on Wednesday night, he has been entering the gray mist from time to time, using this magic book to record the abilities displayed by the "Poseidon Scepter", brushing it over and over again until his spirit is close to exhaustion and he has to return to the real world to rest.
In the process, there were failures and successes, and Klein relied on repeated attempts to finally reach the last step, that is, to record the long-awaited "lightning storm"!
This is the demigod ability of the "sailor" path!
Prior to that failure, Klein had failed nearly twenty times, and his luck could be said to be quite poor.
Failure, failure again, failure again, and by the fifth time, he was pleased to see that the silver-white color stained the burnt yellow paper, so that the simple, mysterious, indescribable symbols on it shrank inward at the same time, and became a strange pattern that made people feel like they had been struck by lightning just by looking at it.
"Whew...... It worked. Crane ran his fingers over the paper and let out a long sigh of relief.
He flipped through "Lemanno's Travel Notes" and admired the results of his previous work.
In the past two days, he has not completely entangled in the "lightning storm", and has also recorded two other demigod-level abilities, one is the "paper angel" formed by himself by prying a small amount of power in the mysterious space above the gray mist, which can be used to interfere with divination and prophecy, and the other is the "tornado" that also originates from the "Poseidon Scepter".
When they were recorded, Klein had relatively good luck, nine times, twelve times, and they were successful.
As for the extraordinary abilities such as "flying", "gliding", and "lightning strike" that can't be in Sequence 4, they only need one or two times, so Klein got almost a full book.
This magic book is actually not particularly useful for wild extraordinaires, it takes a long time and a long patience to record a sufficient number of useful abilities, and beyond Sequence 6, the probability of failure will increase, and it is not so easy to get...... However, there are 22 paths to the mysterious realm, and as long as the abilities of the first few sequences are well matched, it is not too strange to kill sequence 5...... Klein closed "Lemano's Travel Notes" and sighed in his heart.
In his opinion, this magic book is indeed equal to half an artifact for the wild extraordinary, although the early formation is more difficult than the "wriggling hunger", but once there is a good match, the leapfrog challenge will be a regular operation, however, in the hands of the extraordinary person with the support of a big force, the role of "Lemanno Travel Notes" is even more exaggerated, almost BUG, because it can record the ability of demigods!
As long as they want, the demigods can demonstrate again and again, and the "wriggling hunger" is likely to swallow the demigods, and even the genuine "shepherd" wants to herd a high-sequence existence, which is also a very difficult thing, one is that there are no resources, and the other is that it is easy to get out of control, and the Elder Luo Wei in Silver City is also very lucky, so he can graze to the evil spirit that is slightly equal to sequence 4...... Thinking of this, Crane turned his gaze to a dark cyan stone placed next to him, it was uneven, and the surface was full of burning marks, which was the spirit world shuttle stone provided by the "magician" Furth.
With the "Lemanor's Travel Notes" and this stone, plus the "Stolen" charm and the "Wraith" secret puppet, even if Mr. X is surrounded by the Sage, I am not unable to complete the task and leave calmly...... Crane rubbed the corners of his forehead, returned to the real world, arranged the ritual of requesting the grant, and got the corresponding item out.
After making these preparations, he walked to the full-length mirror, looked at himself inside, and adjusted his appearance a little haggard.
After dinner, Crane excused himself and went back to his room.
After a few minutes of watching the night scene, he took a palm-sized mirror from a drawer and placed it on a soft, bouncy pillow.
Then, Klein moved closer, allowing the mirror to reflect the blue-eyed, deep, gray-eyed Dwayne Dantès.
He straightened up and stepped back, and there was another Dawn Dantès on the bed!
The gentleman was dressed in dark silk pajamas, leaning on a pillow, holding a book in his hand, his eyes half-closed, as if resting and thinking.
Yes, the mirror illusion is no worse than the paper figure illusion...... Crane returned to his desk, picked up his pen, and drew a strange symbol on the paper, a mixture of stealth and peeping.
After a brief silence, Dawn Dantès, who was on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes and said with a flattering smile:
"Great master, your humble and loyal servant Arrodus is here!"
I have to say that even the face of Dawn Dantès can't control such a smile...... Crane sighed, almost turning his head to look to the other side.
"Good. He bowed his head lightly and complimented.
He didn't say anything more, put on his half-height silk top hat, slid down from the balcony to the first floor, and climbed the façade of 160 Bercolnd Street from the corner along the secluded garden path, not forgetting to close the windows in the process.
Holding the top hat with his right hand and stepping on the street floor with both feet, Crane slowly raised his head, and his facial features and silhouette had changed somewhere, black hair and brown eyes, and a thin and angular face.
This is the crazy adventurer Gelman Sparrow with a single national bounty of 50,000 pounds!
The hunt is about to begin.
............
In Joewood, Hugh was about to go out to the East End for Mr. X's Extraordinaire party, but was stopped by Forth.
"You, do you want to go out to get materials?" Hugh said his friend's usual phrase.
Fursi pursed his hair and said:
"No, it's money!
"I took on a mission to help people find the dust left behind after the ghosts disappeared, you know, there are no ghosts in the cemetery, they have long been sent by the priests and bishops to their respective gods, so I can only go to the East Side, looking for those who have died due to various problems but have not yet been discovered.
"You can't bear to watch me, a beautiful and weak lady, enter that chaotic place alone?"
"But can't it be postponed?" Hugh said hesitantly, "and I was about to go to the party that Mr. X had called. ”
Furth immediately shook his head:
"No, I'm going to hand in the task tomorrow, a full 50 pounds!"
"I'm going to pay it tomorrow, so why didn't you do it a few days ago?" Hugh glanced at his friend suspiciously.
Furth laughed and said:
"Did you just know me?
"Don't you know I have a serious procrastination?
"Besides, you don't have the money, what's the point of going to Mr. X's party? you don't even know what extraordinary materials you're needing!"
"Yes. Hugh was convinced, and immediately laughed, "Does every writer have procrastination?"
"Probably. Furth was perfunctory and secretly relieved.
............
On the East End, in a budget hotel, Klein enters the room that Miss "The Magician" has booked under a pseudonym.
Here, one bed per person is a luxury, but even so, a similar room is only 12 pence a night, of course, many cheap hotels in the East End do not have single rooms at all, the best is the "cubicle", 5 pence a night, only a bed and some baffles that can block the eyes of others and facilitate the change of clothes.
As for the basement with more than ten or twenty bunk beds, a bed costs 1.5 pence a night, and the belongings are kept by themselves, and once they are lost, they are not responsible.
There are mirrors, which is not bad...... Crane lowered his top hat and stood in front of a full-length mirror filled with gaps, and put the hooded robe that Miss "The Magician" had prepared on his body.
Immediately afterwards, his body became shorter and shorter at a visible rate, his skin gradually turned pale and tinged a little wheat, the bulge of his throat disappeared, and his hair grew a lot longer and dyed golden.
- After "Magician" Furth provides the image of a friend who does not show his face after disguise, Klein recognizes the imitation object at a glance as Miss Hugh!
However, because of the hooded robe, he is not really feminine, but only deals with the places that are easy to be seen by others.
At 1.50 meters tall, I really can't do anything, at least I have to completely digest all the potions in my body to reach this limit...... Fortunately, Miss Hugh has done a height increase disguise, so I don't have to worry about that...... Crane looked at himself in the glasses and changed into the pair of leather boots in the room, which looked flat and were actually flat.
After his disguise, Klein pulled on his hood and quietly left the single room through the window into the alley of the East End, all the way around to the outside of the house where Mr. X had gathered the extraordinary.
Recalling the knocking code told by Miss "The Magician", Klein flexed his fingers and knocked on the door with three light and three heavy forces and two long and three short intervals.
After ten seconds or so, the door opened silently, and an attendant in an iron mask looked at the visitor a few times before getting out of the way.
Crane didn't panic a bit, calmly passed him and entered the house.
