Chapter 120: The Stalker

On the outskirts of the North District, in a three-story teaching building of a medical school that is about to be abandoned.

Even though it was only three o'clock in the afternoon, the fog and stratus clouds had already made the whole of Beckland gloomy and dark, as if a heavy rainstorm was coming.

In the dilapidated corridor, the cold light shone faintly and obliquely, penetrating the windows, making everything seem silent and devastated and terrifying.

Audrey, who has come here for the second time, is no longer as nervous and nervous as before, her head wearing a surgical cap and a large mask turns slightly from side to side, habitually observing the environment and observing every detail here.

Viscount Glerint walked beside him, gradually becoming a little frightened, and couldn't help but lower his voice and said:

"How does it feel a little weird here......"

"Could there be any ghosts?"

As a lover of occultism who had only half a foot in the circle, the only transcendent phenomena he had really seen were Firth piercing walls and opening doors, and he was uncertain whether the ghost ghost was real.

But this does not prevent him from being afraid of similar monsters!

Furth glanced sideways at him, and said with a smile:

"Most of the people who attend the meeting are extraordinary, and if there are demons and ghosts, they must be very happy, which means materials or servants. ”

Seeing that Viscount Glerint was obviously relieved, she deliberately added another sentence:

"Of course, I'm only talking about the weaker kind of ghosts, and the real formed ghost may be able to make everyone here die silently, and if you want to run, you can only go back and forth between three floors, and you can't get out, it's like entering a labyrinth. ”

Hugh nodded approvingly:

"I've met a similar resentful spirit, who couldn't escape after going around the cemetery several times, and in the process, there have been people who have turned back inexplicably and then died suddenly, and if it weren't for an extraordinary person carrying the 'Sun Charm', maybe you wouldn't have seen me today. ”

Viscount Glerint shuddered, and hurriedly looked out the window, and at this moment, a withered branch hit the glass with a soft sound under the blowing of the cold wind.

Gleilynt almost screamed, and frantically moved closer to the two Extraordinary, Forth and Hugh.

Audrey endured the smile that was almost on her lips, quietly watched this scene, and thought to herself:

I've seen Mr. "Fool", who is almost a god, I know the Silver City in the God's Forsaken Land, I've heard of all kinds of terrifying monsters in the depths of the darkness, what kind of resentful spirits and ghosts will I be afraid of?

But...... I really haven't really encountered a ghost yet, phew, Audrey, what do you want? It's better not to happen to this kind of thing!

Unless I've become a "psychiatrist", have extraordinary abilities to affect other creatures, or have received magical items to restrain ghost-like monsters......

The group of four couldn't help but speed up their pace and quickly came to today's meeting place.

Before entering the door, Forth found an opportunity, bent his back slightly, and leaned into Hugh's ear and said:

"You cooperated well just now, and you were able to make up a story so quickly and scary. ”

"You see where Viscount Gleilint is not covered by a mask, it is so white that he can hardly see any other color. ”

Hugh turned his head and replied, slightly dazed:

"I didn't make up a story. ”

"That was what happened to me before I came to Beckland. ”

"......," Furth was stunned for a moment, and blurted out rhetorically, "Is that true?"

"What's so deceiving?" Hugh's puzzled face was covered by a mask.

Furth turned his head, took two steps forward, and suddenly shuddered.

At this moment, Glerint, who no longer wanted to stay in the eerie hallway, reached out and pushed open the door to the meeting place.

As the squeaky sound echoed, he was greeted by the concrete floor, and the frowning smell of preservatives came into his nose.

Immediately afterward, he saw a large pool in the center, filled with a clear, yellowish liquid, with one figure after another floating.

The figures were naked, some relatively intact, while others had been half-stripped of their skin, a brown like beef jerky.

It's all corpses!

"Ahh

A screaming male voice echoed through the room.

Eyes then turned to Glerint.

These eyes came from the figures in white coats surrounding the pool, also wearing surgical caps and large masks, with only their eyes and a little skin exposed.

Glerint's body shook a little, and he tried to turn around and run, but he saw Audrey, Firth, and Hugh pass him as if nothing had happened, and walk in, pretending not to be their companions who had come here together.

Taking a breath, Gleilynt almost regurgitated.

He looked back outside, and saw that the corridor was dark and cold, and there were many shadows, and he could not see half a living person.

Shivering again, Glerint hurriedly quickened his pace, caught up with Audrey and the others, and found a place to sit furthest from the pool.

After a few minutes, a figure in a white coat came out of the line, pulled a corpse to the side with a wooden pole with a hook next to the pool, and directly started to drag the other person to the concrete floor.

He paused for two or three seconds, then pulled out a scalpel and cut open the body's abdomen.

As the wound deepened, a cold and hoarse voice suddenly came from inside:

"The party begins. ”

...... Glerint reached out and pressed the mask on his face, squirming in his throat a few times, and almost vomited.

As various transactions succeeded or failed, and the party entered the middle section, Audrey, who had been calmly observing, finally spoke:

"I want the 'audience' potion recipe. ”

Before she finished speaking, she immediately felt several gazes sweeping, but quickly moved away without lingering.

After dozens of seconds of silence, the deal was aborted.

............

It was early in the afternoon at four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was getting closer to night.

"How can it be that there is no ......," Glerint did not maintain his aristocratic demeanor, leaning slightly limply against the planks of the carriage, and sighed in a low voice.

This gathering of the Extraordinary left a deep impression on him and made him feel that he had taken a great risk.

But even so, he still didn't get the horns of an adult one-horned pegasus and the venom crystals of the crown jellyfish.

Furth pursed his lips secretly and said:

"It's normal, and while Beckland is the easiest place to get the materials, if you can't attend every gathering of the Extraordinary, you will also be unable to find the item you want for a long time, which requires either luck or patience. ”

"Look, Mr. Viscount, there is no clue to the 'audience' formula that Miss Audrey wants. ”

Sometimes, I met it but didn't have the money to buy it...... Hugh, who was sitting next to him, thought helplessly.

Audrey relieved Glerint:

"When I get back, I'll look for it in my treasure trove, maybe there's what you're looking for. ”

She had brought the pituitary gland of the Rainbow Dragon's brain with her today, but she didn't encounter the spinal fluid of the Farsman Rabbit, so she only exchanged it for £320 in cash - this was in preparation for Susie's promotion.

Glerling nodded his head, and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw Hugh sit up straight, frown slightly, and said:

"Looks like someone is following us!"

"I trust your instincts, what now?" asked Firth, looking around.

What do we have to keep track of? Having sold an extraordinary item and obtained a few hundred pounds in cash, we should not be at the top of the list even if someone tried to rob us...... While Glerint acted like a rookie, we didn't ...... And the convener of the party did a lot to keep the members safe, in case someone was being followed, unless, besides, he was the one who sent someone to follow him! Everything was normal last time, well, what's the difference between the two times...... Audrey's thoughts raced, and suddenly she had an idea:

Perhaps it was my act of buying the "audience" formula that attracted the attention of the Psychological Alchemy Society.

They can't just sell the "audience" formula, and the follow-up is bound to be engaging.

And attracting people into the meeting is not a simple matter, you must guard against whether the other party is a quasi-night watcher, a quasi-substitute punishment, or a spy sent by other hidden forces.

If you don't look at the target, if you don't examine it, the organization will be destroyed quickly!

After a few seconds of silence, Audrey said to Furth and the others:

"Be prepared to be attacked. ”

"Pretend that the stalker is not found. ”

"If you can make it back to Queens, don't care about me and Glerint's identities being revealed, you must leave in seclusion. ”

Her turquoise eyes swept over Gleilint and she added with a light smile:

"We are many people who know about the occult, and it's normal to find an opportunity to attend an extraordinary gathering, even if it's an official extraordinary, we won't suspect anything, because we're all just ordinary people, so at most, they can warn them through other channels or two. ”

But I'm already in sequence 8...... Whew, in order to get in touch with the Psychological Alchemy Society, you have to take a little risk...... The official extraordinaire shouldn't be eyeing me who is just buying the formula, and there shouldn't be a way to bypass the party organizers to track us, I have to trust my own judgment!

"Okay. Viscount Glerint muttered in agreement.

The carriage went forward as usual, and circled several times, and in the end, Audrey and the others changed one as scheduled.

During this process, the tracker never carried out the attack.

At the back door of Viscount Glerinte's mansion in Queens, the two nobles returned in normal ways, while Foirth and Hugh left on their own skill.

After more than ten minutes, Audrey, with Susie, the golden retriever dog, and the maids with her, left from the main entrance in her own carriage without cover.

Listening to the sound of the wheels rolling, she couldn't confirm if there were any stalkers, so she could only diverge her thoughts:

It is clear that the daughter of Earl Hall could not be a spy of any extraordinary power......

There's nothing wrong with her past......

Her love of the occult is well known......

Her status and status can bring help unlike anyone else......

Perhaps, in two days, some members of the Psychological Alchemy Society will try to contact me...... Audrey was a little expectant, and a little nervous.

............

Saying that he was preparing, Klein spent two days at the Kragg Club without much to do, and even played a game with the equestrian teacher Talim and others, and won a few soles.

Before going to bed, he didn't forget to go outside the lawyer's house to check if there were any lights and whether he wanted to feed the cats.

At eight o'clock on Friday night, he put on an iron mask and a hooded black robe, and entered the living room of the old gentleman "Eyes of Wisdom".
