Chapter 155: The Hollywood Trio
After a short conversation, Zach led Chris and Bert to the gates of the City Lord's Mansion.
After waving goodbye, Chris and the others took a public carriage back to the "Black Cat Office" on Farland Street.
After telling Wayne about the cooperation plan with Zach, Wayne raised an eyebrow:
"You two did a good job, so tonight you ask Jeffrey for a few 'invisibility charms' so that you can spy on Dinis at a critical moment. ”
Chris wore a black top hat on one side and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel with the other.
took off the black dress jacket on his body, took the Xibo black tea handed by Bonnie, and after thanking him, he looked at Wayne helplessly:
"Sister Wayne, did you know that a silver charm costs 8 Hasuo alone, and this is not counting Jeffrey's labor costs......"
Paul told Chris about the cost of silver charms, but of course, Jeffrey was always responsive to the use of all spells in the squad, and would not charge money from his teammates.
Wayne tapped Chris's head with his index finger, "Of course I know, but don't underestimate Jeffrey." Wayne leaned into Chris's ear and whispered, "You may not know that Jeffrey is the richest guy in our extraordinary squad." ”
...... That's why you don't skimp on spells?Chris said in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it to Wayne, and with a curious look on his face, he asked:
"Why is that?"
Wayne had a stupid expression, but still explained:
"Naturally, he sold his charms to the other 'Punishers' squads in our church, and although they cost 8 halsuo, they cost 1 gold pound each. He traded with the kid of the constant light and scorching sun, and he also traded in quantity. ”
...... Hearing the price of 1 gold pound each, Chris was secretly speechless, he didn't know the price before, and he didn't blink an eye when he used it.
"But our extraordinary squad is the poorest of all the 'punisters'. Wayne complained, "You don't know, the captains of Squad 1 and Squad 2 are still the 'mechanics' of Sequence 7, so they're not short of money. ”
With an envious look, Chris looked at Wayne and asked:
"I've always wanted to ask, why is it that of all the people I know, only Jeffrey and that Rowan of the Constant Light Sun Church can make transcendent charms, can't the others?"
Wayne picked up a cup of São Paulo coffee and sat on the couch and explained:
"Among those of us who are extraordinary, there will be some people who have a higher level of spirituality at the lower level because of the special nature of the extraordinary pathway, as well as some other chances, so it will be easier for them to learn and make transcendent charms, and they will also need a certain amount of talent and perseverance. ”
"So, each of us can learn how to make those transcendent spells?" Chris's eyes flashed with a glint called "Golden Pound".
Wayne glanced at Chris and said a little depressed:
"You don't have to envy this ability, after all, when you get to the 'mechanical expert', it's a banknote making machine...... However, if you are willing to spend a lot of time studying, by the time you reach Sequence 7, you may be able to create a spell once your spirituality has greatly improved. ”
In the Extraordinary, Sequence 7 means that you have officially stepped into the Intermediate Sequence, which is also a huge threshold in the Transcendent Realm.
Chris nodded thoughtfully, it seemed that he could have time to ask Jeffrey for advice on how to make transcendent charms.
"But I think Bert should be more talented in this. Chris smiled and looked at Bert, who was quietly reading the newspaper.
Like Chris, Bert, who had returned to the office, had removed his bowler hat and dress jacket, wearing only a black cotton jacket and a white shirt.
Through Paul's narration, Chris knows that Jeffrey's methods of making spells are learned by communicating with the undead from time to time, and Bert, as a "listener", is good at listening to the whispers of various mysterious beings.
Bert raised his head, he naturally knew what Chris meant, but he still shook his head and said:
"The study and study of ritual magic is time-consuming, and I probably don't have the time and energy to learn how to make transcendent spells. ”
As a "decipher" who is well-versed in all kinds of occult knowledge, Wayne explains with a smile:
"In fact, transcendent charms and ritual magic have a lot in common, and it can be said that the function of charms is more like a simplified version of ritual magic, although it is easy to use, but the limitation is that it is less powerful.
"So both have their advantages and disadvantages, but if you become proficient in ritual magic, you can completely incorporate the power of ritual magic into it in the future and create the spell you want. ”
"That's a great idea!" Bonnie exclaimed, then sighed, "I haven't had any potions in my body lately..."
Since the two potions were made, there was no time to research new potions because Chris and the three of them had joined the "Punisher" team.
Chris has been busy with this kind of case these days, and without his help, Bonnie has a hard time reading through the knowledge in the books herself.
And because of various cases, Bonnie hasn't been to the community hospital to "play" the doctor for a long time, and now the potion in her body has no signs of digestion.
"I have a not-so-mature idea, I don't know if I can help you. Wayne looked at Bonnie with a sad face, "I've been a 'decipher' for two or three years, and I know the names of some sequence pathways, and I find that many of them are similar to the names of a profession..."
Looking at the expressions of the three of them, Wayne stroked the broken hair on his head with his hand, and continued:
"It's that we can focus on understanding and explaining some of the meanings of the respective sequence names, and maybe that's the key to digesting potions. ”
...... Isn't this the "way to play", Chris and the three looked at each other, it seems that Mr. Oliver is right, most of the extraordinary people really don't know that the key to digesting potions is to play different identities.
Although it is not very perfect and accurate, Sister Wayne can think of these things in a few years, which is indeed a bit powerful.
Originally, Chris had been hesitant and didn't know how to roughly reveal the content of the "acting method" to James and them, but I didn't expect...
Unexpectedly, Wayne had already summed up something, and Bonnie, who was wearing a fluffy pleated skirt, pretended to be surprised:
"I didn't expect the meaning of the sequence name to be like this, and it can also help us digest the potion, Sister Wayne, you are too powerful. ”
Looking at the adoring look in Bonnie's blue eyes, Wayne, who is usually capable and old, was rarely a little embarrassed:
"Ha, this is just a conjecture of mine, whether it is true or not remains to be investigated. However, among us, Jeffrey, who had just become a 'grave keeper', was assigned by the church to guard a cemetery in the southern district of Federenburg......
"As a result, he had completely digested the potion in his body within a year! If it weren't for the lack of merit points, he would have been promoted to a 'Requiem Master'... I heard that the 'Requiem' potion in his body has almost been digested. ”
Wayne, who had opened the conversation, seemed to be interested, and began to teach the three new extraordinary people in her eyes, and continued:
"As for the 'investigator' Paul, too, now waiting to accumulate enough merit points and apply to the church to exchange for the next sequence of potion recipes and extraordinary materials, as a 'decipher', I've been digesting the potions in my body little by little as the number of solved cases has increased recently. ”
Bert, who put away the newspaper, nodded "deeply approvingly" and echoed:
"I also agree with Sister Wayne's statement, since I found out that I could hear some of the voices in the hearts of ordinary people, the potion in my body has really digested a lot. ”
"That seems to be the case. Little stars twinkled in Bonnie's eyes, "Sister Wayne, Boss James and Elton, do they know this?"
Wayne shook his head, reached out and rubbed his hair, and hesitated:
"I've never been sure about it, and I haven't summarized the rules, so I didn't mention it to them. ”
In fact, it was mainly Wayne who was worried that this was a wrong idea and hurt his teammates, so he never said it.
Chris watched in amazement as Bert and Bonnie complimented Wayne, with unanimous surprise and approval on their faces.
This textbook acting... Are you two from Hollywood? You've known how to play for a long time.
"Then let's share this with them tonight and see if they have any opinions on it. Chris, who despised the two of them in his heart, sighed heartily on his face.
......
Today around 6 p.m. in Atlantus, the capital of the Republic of Ireland.
In a lavishly decorated dining room, Catherine wore a rose-red ruffle dress with horn sleeves and a corset, with purple lace trim embroidered on the neckline and cuffs.
He wore long blond hair neatly coiled at the back, wore a gauze hat inlaid with green ribbons and silk flowers, and wore light white tulle gloves on both sides.
This combination adds a touch of solemnity and sexiness to her beauty, even though she is middle-aged, but the years do not seem to have left traces on her delicate cheeks, but add some mature charm.
Outside the box, two guards in black suits stood, one of the nine contenders in the Cabinet of the Republic of Ireland, which was already the smallest defense outside.
A few minutes later, while Catherine was enjoying the meal prepared by Chef Special Heng at the table, a blonde man walked in from outside the box.
Because Catherine had greeted her in advance, the two plainclothes guards did not stop her.
The blonde man is about 30 years old, and although he looks ordinary, he has a good temperament and wears an extremely elaborate Clark dress.
He sat directly across from Catherine and complimented:
"My dear, you are as beautiful today as ever. ”
