Chapter 127: Foreshadowing

The light through the glass illuminated the detention center outside the arsenal, and after reading the newspaper, the elder Neil took a sip of coffee, looked up at Klein and said:

"How are you feeling now? Have you calmed down, or do you need a glass of wine, an early paycheck, a leisurely day off?"

At this moment, Klein, who had thoroughly digested the "soothsayer" potion, was trying to change the "switch" of the vision with the help of meditation to make it less conspicuous.

Now he no longer relies on stimulating a few parts of the body to activate his vision, so he can achieve his goals in more subtle ways, such as quickly pinching the middle finger joint with his thumb once, and tapping his left tooth twice in a row.

Considering that sometimes he had to hold a gun in one hand and a cane in the other, but he had to use psionic vision, Crane finally chose to tap his teeth lightly, opening on the left and closing on the right.

Constantly hinting and making changes, he opened his eyes, smiled and said:

"I'm just paying too much attention to the captain's actions and don't need to be calm. ”

At the same time, he tapped his left tooth twice, trying to turn on his vision to get used to it as quickly as possible.

Old Neil suddenly coughed violently, his face flushed like a boiled lobster.

"What's wrong," Klein asked with concern, stunned for a moment.

He carefully examined Old Neil's aura and found that the other party's health color was quite normal, but because of his age, he was relatively weak.

Old Neil coughed for more than ten seconds before he eased up, he reached out and picked up the coffee, took a sip slowly, and said, "Everyone makes mistakes, cough, I was choked by my own spit just now...... Shall we begin today's occult lesson?"

"Okay. Klein's right tooth tapped twice almost silently.

Digesting the "Fortune Teller" potion a week or two sooner than expected made him both happy and annoyed, and it was not to mention that getting rid of the hidden danger of losing control, being about to be promoted, and mastering more extraordinary abilities were enough to make anyone feel happy and excited, and the trouble was that it disrupted his arrangements and plans.

Considering that he would have to stay in Tingen's Nighttime Squad for a long time, Klein decided that it was not a good choice to quietly become a "clown", and he would always be worried about being exposed, and he would not dare to use the corresponding abilities in the tasks that needed to be cooperated, so that he would be in greater danger.

His plan is to emulate the "psychic" Dali, submit a special application to the higher-ups, exchange the accumulated merits for the rewards of recipes and extraordinary materials, and become the night watchman of Sequence 8 openly.

But there is an essential difference between "mastering" potions in one month and mastering potions in a year, Crane can withstand a certain amount of attention from the Templars, and is willing to be a key training target, but he definitely does not want to attract high suspicion from the upper echelons, he must find a convincing enough reason for his state.

His original arrangement was to seize the time when the "soothsayer" potion had not been completely digested, and gradually make some foreshadowing from the captain, such as mentioning that every time he went to the divination club, he felt spiritually lively, such as pretending to casually describe the "soothsayer's code" summarized from helping people with divination again and again, such as saying in advance that there had been basically no more situations recently when he heard sounds that should not be heard, and saw things that should not be seen.

As a result, the Night Watch higher-ups will think that he has unconsciously emulated Daly when completing the "mission", and has done it more thoroughly.

And this will allow them to focus on summarizing the rules and exploring in the direction of "playing the law", greatly reducing the suspicion of Klein and only doing routine review.

Well, it can also be used to remind the captain and help him discover the "trick...... Klein silently added in his heart that for him, Dunn Smith is a good captain, except for a poor memory, there are no major shortcomings, so he hopes to reduce his hidden danger of losing control and make him stronger.

Of course, Crane could also choose to wait a year before submitting a special application, which would not have to take a little risk, but the continuous coincidences and the red chimney seen in the dream divination made him have to improve himself as soon as possible.

"It takes two weeks to do three or four set-ups with the captain and then make a formal application...... At the same time, you can also go to the underground market to see if there are any extraordinary materials to be found...... It should be expensive......" Klein made a quick decision, turning his attention back to the occult course.

Time passed minute by minute, and the beautiful lunch time slowly came, and old Neil finished his cup of coffee, and while cleaning up the clutter on the table, he laughed and said:

"Your occult class is coming to an end, and judging by what you've just tried, you're ready to make a spell for yourself. ”

"That's exactly what I'm going to do for the next few days. Klein exhaled contentedly.

Unlike the amulets he had given to his brother Benson and sister Melissa, the charm had to be inscribed with the aid of rituals, and it had certain special abilities that could be used in fierce battles.

However, low-grade spells are also not omnipotent, their spirituality is constantly declining, they must be "crafted" every two weeks, and they also require specific spells to be activated, not to be used immediately.

In addition, the spells that can be mastered by the night watchman are still limited to the "domain" of the goddess of the night, and there are only three types that Klein can make at present, one is the "Sleep Charm", which is similar to the chant of Dunn Smith and Leonard Mitchell to make people sleep, the other is the "Requiem Charm", which can calm ghosts, ghosts, zombies and water ghosts, and deal with resentful spirits and evil spirits to a certain extent, and the other is the "Dream Charm", which can help the caster enter the target's dream.

These effects are the same as the "Midnight Poet" and "Nightmare" abilities of the "Sleepless" sequence, so Dunn and Leonard and others hardly use spells, but the "corpse collector" Frye and the "Sleepless" Luo Yao and Kornley will carry one or two pieces with them, but they will not be useful for a long time, and they will have to find old Neil from time to time to "recharge".

At this time, Old Neil glanced at Klein and said with a smile:

"I remember that you have been practicing too much this month, and the material quota is gone, and you plan to go to the underground trading market?"

Klein was stunned for a moment, and then nodded distressedly:

"Yes. ”

He knows the price of those materials, and he only hopes to succeed at the first time and not waste it......

After taking on the task of bringing the lunch underground, Crane put on his coat, hat, and cane, and returned to the Black Thorn Security Company on the second floor.

When he passed by the recreation room, he saw that Leonard and the others had returned and were having a meal.

He knocked on the door to the captain's office.

"Please come in. Dunn's mellow voice came out.

Klein pushed the door in, took off his hat and said:

"Captain, did you catch Triss the 'Instigator'?"

Dunn pinched his temples and shook his head a little tiredly, "We didn't find her at Tingen station, but according to a telegram from Beckland, a passenger saw her in the first class car of the earliest flight, and unfortunately, she got off halfway." ”

"It's a pity. Crane sighed mentally prepared, "Divination is not a panacea......

Dunn's gray eyes swept and said:

"You don't need to be frustrated, the Extraordinary in Sequence 7 is not so easy to catch, at least we have destroyed Triss's evil ritual and saved the lives of at least forty innocent people, and we have also mastered her current condition so that she can no longer commit crimes as wantonly as before. ”

"If she wants to do something like this, she may be noticed, discovered, and reported at any time, and sooner or later she will be found, caught, and, of course, killed, by our night watchmen, or by the punishers, or by the mechanical heart. ”

"I hope so, may the Goddess bless. Crane drew a crimson moon on his chest.

Immediately after, he paused, and said after considering the language:

"Captain, I haven't heard sounds I shouldn't hear, seen things I shouldn't have seen in more than a week, and that's with regular meditation and regular use of psionic vision. ”

"Huh?" Dunn frowned slightly in confusion.

Klein immediately added:

"I feel like I'm not far from being able to fully master the 'Fortune Teller' potion, and that may have something to do with the fact that I often go to the Divination Club to help people with divination. ”

“...... Why do you think that?" Dunn changed his seat, his expression confused.

Klein replied deliberately unfluently: "Every time I go, every time I go to the divination club, I feel that my spirit becomes lively, and every time I help someone divination, my body, mind, and spirit will be much easier, and I have summed up a set of 'soothsayers' rules' from it, and strictly abide by them, just like the voyeur's 'do whatever you want, but do no harm', oh, I got inspiration from this aphorism, and tried and imitated to formulate the soothsayer's aphorism." ”

"I think this may be an effective way to help the Extraordinary get their hands on potions as quickly as possible and reduce loss of control, like Ms. Daly, who has been working as a 'psychic'. ”

Dunn took out his pipe at some point, put it to his nose and sniffed it gently, he seemed to forget about Klein, and pondered for several minutes before he spoke:

"Nice conjecture, interesting try......"

Klein's purpose this time was just to point it out and make a foreshadowing, so he didn't mention it again, and instead said half-jokingly and half-vaccinated: "Maybe I'll be the fastest member in the history of the Nightwatcher to master the Sequence 9 potion." ”

"May the Goddess bless you. Dunn smiled and blessed without taking it too seriously, and then fell back into thought.

Seeing this, Klein got up and took his leave, exiting the captain's office.

While helping to cover the door of the house, he suddenly thought of another problem, that is, how to play the "clown"!

And there's no permanent circus in Tingen, it's all touring ...... Crane's expression turned bitter.

Being a soothsayer is quite compelling, even if he is touched by an acquaintance, he can hold his head up, if he goes to be a "clown", there is no dignity at all!

Perhaps, perhaps, there is another way to play it, when the blasphemous slate was born, there was no circus, no clowns...... Forget it, there are still two or three weeks before you get the opportunity to get promoted, so don't rush to think about it for now...... Crane fled to the couch area of the reception hall, to Rosan, Mrs. Oriana, Bright, and the others, to his own lunch with Old Neil.
