Chapter 218: You can't go to the doctor when you're in a hurry
Hearing Klein's question, Emlyn White was startled, looked at the other party carefully, and said:
"You're richer than I thought you were. β
He had thought Sherlock Moriarty would have to raise Β£2,450 in at least a week.
"I've been saving up for a long time. Crane replied with a sigh.
Emlyn nodded thoughtfully:
"Is it so profitable to be a private investigator?"
"It's just an easy status to move, and if you don't encounter a big bounty, it's only two or three hundred pounds a year. Klein said calmly.
Emlyn glanced at him and asked casually:
"So what do you actually do? Smuggling arms, stealing the coffers of the rich? For the extraordinary people of Sequence 7 and below, there are not many things that can quickly save more than 2,000 pounds, and most of them are on the verge of breaking the law and committing crimes. β
You're a vampire talking to me about breaking the law and committing crimes? It looks like you're eager to make a quick buck...... Klein smiled and said:
"Take on some of the more dangerous tasks, and if you're not afraid of death, you can also try it. β
Emlyn closed his mouth and said for a long time:
"Come to me in the evening, and I'll take you to the seller. β
What a vampire from the heart...... Klein was about to agree, when he suddenly felt a little unsafe.
What if that seller sees that he wants to make money? What if he doesn't have any corresponding extraordinary materials at all, and just wants to trick people into robbing and killing them? Emlyn White can be trusted, but the seller he introduces may not be...... I have to find an excuse to do a divination above the gray fog to confirm the level of danger...... Well, there's no need to be that complicated, there's a better way...... In the midst of his thoughts, Crane looked sideways at Emlyn:
"No, you go by yourself.
"I'll give you 1,000 pounds in advance, and you bring those two materials to the Harvest Chapel, and after confirmation, I'll pay the balance, and I think the seller should be able to accept this way, which shows the creditworthiness of a noble blood. β
Being held like this, Emlyn unconsciously raised his chin:
"There's nothing wrong with this way of trading. β
Speaking of which, he snorted:
"Are you afraid that you won't be trustworthy over there, and you can rest easy in the Harvest Church?"
"Of course, a Mother Earth Goddess who is more than two meters twenty tall and has unusually strong muscles standing next to him, everyone will feel safe. Klein smiled and pointed at Father Utrawski, "Those who can deal with him will not care about the wealth of two or three thousand pounds." β
Emlyn's face darkened, and he snorted:
"Aren't you worried about me embezzling the Β£1,000 advance?"
Klein looked leisurely ahead and said:
"Why worry?
"You come back here every day, it's easy to find, and a living vampire, even if taken apart and sold, costs more than Β£1,000. β
Emlyn was poked in the sore spot, and whispered in exasperation:
"Bloodline! understand, Bloodline!
"Also, don't use the 'only' unit!"
Klein chuckled and didn't speak again, waiting for the other party to calm down.
"Just trade the way you want it to. Finally, Emlyn reached out and rubbed the corner of his forehead.
Klein immediately took out the envelope he had received in the morning, and handed it to the other party along with the thick 1,000 pounds in cash inside:
"See you here at 8pm. β
Emlin counted the bills inside, and after confirming that they were correct, he glanced at Father Utravsky vigilantly, and said in a low voice:
"Mr. Private Detective, you are often exposed to all kinds of information and information, have you ever heard of an evil god called 'Fool'?"
Evil...... Evil you...... Klein almost burst into a foul mouth in his heart.
He replied with the usual expression:
"Recently, there have been a lot of people looking for followers of the 'Fool', and you want to join them and ask for the corresponding bounty?"
Emlyn sighed and said:
"No, I'm just thinking about whether to pray to this evil god, or evil spirit, and ask him to help me remove my psychological suggestion, you know, there is a specific name for him that has been circulated, and as long as it is converted into Hermes, ancient Hermes, it is possible to get a response...... What do you know about Him, how much harm does He do to believers, does it force a change in the views of believers?"
Although the target is me, I still want to say, vampire classmate, you are in a hurry to go to the doctor...... Klein said with a very mixed feeling:
"The 'Fool' is mysterious, and to this day, no one knows the details of Him, except for the information you already know, such as the scope of the priesthood, such as the corresponding prayer rituals.
"What makes me wonder is, in this case, why don't you consider the ancestor of your sucking, eh, and blood clans, the ancient god Lilith? As long as the ritual is correct and the sacrifice is appropriate, he should help you remove the psychological suggestion. β
Emlyn leaned back slightly, staring straight ahead, and did not speak for several seconds.
He seemed to sink all at once.
After a brief silence, he whispered:
"Before the cataclysm, the First Patriarch had rarely responded to supplications, and only on special matters could he help, not including the removal of mental suggestion. β
In the legend of Silver City, Lilith, the ancient god of the moon, has been reclaimed by a reawakened Creator, or has fallen in some of the Divine Wars...... So, who was it that occasionally responded to the Bloodline's prayers? Primordial Moon? Klein deliberately asked:
"There is still a 'primordial moon' to pray for, and many of the rituals of the Extraordinary Underground have relied on his power. β
This refers primarily to the "Witch King" and its corresponding creatures...... Klein added in his mind.
Emlyn's lips twitched, but she couldn't speak, and there was an indescribable fear on her face.
After a long time, he said solemnly:
"I suspect that the 'Primordial Moon' is pretended to be an evil god or a high-ranking demon, and most of the people who pray to him will change little by little, become cruel, become crazy, and full of desire to reproduce, while the remaining ones, mainly the blood clan, are likely to get out of control on the spot and become real monsters.
"Once there was a powerful Bloodline, who tried to pray because of the danger, but turned into a piece of meat that only knew how to mate and reproduce, and she gave birth to one strange offspring after another with cows, sheep, horses, rats, and even plants and stones, each of which was equivalent to creating a new race of monsters, and fortunately, she was quickly eliminated, and so did her offspring. β
...... "Primordial Moon" so dangerous? It's not mentioned in the Book of Secrets...... The Witch King Karaman has been corrupted by Him?Fortunately, I am all imitating and adapting, and the object of prayer is myself...... Klein's heart beat faster at Emlyn White's description.
This made him deeply realize that the hidden existence outside of the Seven Gods was indeed not so trustworthy.
I am excluded...... He sighed.
At this time, Emlyn smiled bitterly:
"If the negative effects of the 'fool' are not so great, praying to Him is not something that cannot be considered. β
The only repercussion is that you will be paid a certain amount for it...... In order to maintain the image he showed, Klein could only pat Emlyn on the shoulder and draw a triangular emblem on his chest:
"It is very dangerous to pray to a hidden being who does not know the situation, in this case, it is better to choose a favorite faith from the seven gods, and they will not interfere with your daily life and will not let you discard the puppet. β
"If there's really no other way......" Emlyn suddenly found himself calmer than he had imagined.
Crane didn't stop any longer, squeezed into the hallway, and walked out of the Harvest Church.
Looking out at the foggy sky, he began to think about what to do next.
There is no doubt that his current focus is on saving money and finding materials.
The little "sun" is more stable, so as not to be suspected again, so that he can use the method of removing the mental pollution of the runaway to offset the promised reward...... The hair of the Naga of the Deep Sea can be entrusted to Mr. "The Hanged Man", and the characteristics of the Shadow of Human Skin are up to you...... Emlyn White and Mr. Stanton, the "Eye of Wisdom", have not heard from each other for more than a month, so they have to change channels...... Well, it's been so long, and the high-ranking powerhouses of the Rose School shouldn't be closely monitoring the "Brave" bar anymore, so take a turn in the evening to see if you can contact Miss Sharon and MariΔ...... Klein quickly had an idea.
In order to get to the "Brave" bar, he had to go to the East End and change into his workers' clothes in the one-bedroom house he rented on Black Palm Street.
Thinking of this, he walked to the public carriage stop opposite.
............
On the outskirts of the West End, inside Green Cemetery.
Wearing a black gauze hat, Furth Wall walked quietly beside Dorian Gray, a member of the Abraham family, and accompanied him to the graves of Lawrence, Lisa, and others to lay flowers.
As she walked silently, her thoughts were all on the extraordinary material of the "Soul Eater's Stomach Bag".
She knew that she had digested the "apprentice" potion, and as long as she got the "Soul Eater's Stomach Bag" again, she would become a "master of tricks", but there was never a clue to the corresponding item, and the "sun", who was most likely to help her, did not dare to hold a ritual and invite friends to hunt the "Spirit Eater" because of what happened before.
In order to improve as soon as possible and take a step closer to getting rid of the curse of the full moon, she even prayed to Mr. "Fool" and asked the other party's dependents to help find materials, and in the process, she revealed the fact that she was about to receive a guaranteed remuneration for the publication of her new book to prove that she had full purchasing power - she was not worried about her real identity being known by Mr. "Fool", because she thought that Mr. "Fool" must be clear.
Secluded, peaceful, and cold, Furth and Dorian stopped at Lawrence's grave.
Looking at the posthumous photograph taken after his death, reading the epitaph "He was a good teacher", Dorian Gray was silent for a long time, and then sighed and said:
"It's ironic......"
"Why?" asked Furth in surprise.
She had heard Lawrence mention that he was a public school teacher in Conston City, Mahai County, which is why she used this epitaph.
"It's none of your business, it's our family's business. Dorian laughed to himself and bent down to put down the flowers.
After straightening up, he looked ahead and suddenly said:
"Do you want to be extraordinary, Firth, the kind described in my letter. β
