After leaving the king's study, Shade did not leave Yoder Palace immediately. Instead, he waited in the waiting room until Director Anlos finished the interview, and then had lunch with his boss at a club in the city.
The director of MI6 acted very cautiously and emphasized the importance of this mission to Shade under the dim lights of this club, which was ostensibly a laundry. The restaurant in the club was a booth with booths far apart.
, this is also one of the strongholds of MI6 in the city. The atmosphere and anonymity are completely in line with ordinary citizens' imagination of a secret agent organization.
In fact, Shade's task is not heavy. All he has to do is to monitor the princess of Kasenlik in social situations and try his best to observe whether she has contact with special people. In general, he treats himself as trying to communicate with a foreign country.
The princess develops a friendly relationship with the young gentleman, who is the key to this mission.
Shade did not comment on tasks of this nature, but he was curious about what Miss Carina thought of this task. Director Anlos, who also belonged to Miss Carina's camp, gave the answer in the club:
"The Duke also supports you in carrying out this mission. If you can gain something, we can put it into operation next spring. Although it is still a little difficult to change from a knight to a baron, at least your status in the Sixth Office will definitely be different."
Contact with Margaret Anjou was originally part of Shade's plan. After all, he needed a suitable reason to approach Mr. Lykins Priscia, who possessed the "Guiding Moon" core spiritual rune. Collect the other party's core spiritual rune.
Wen's aura cannot be realized by shaking hands, so it is the most correct way to get to know the "Guiding Moon" through the princess in a roundabout way.
But no matter what, the visiting delegation has not yet arrived in Tobesk City. All Shade can do is wait calmly and then carefully collect the vouchers for reimbursement. Because during this mission, his reimbursement amount was increased to 1,000 pounds, and if there is
For special needs, you can also apply for more financial support.
After saying goodbye to Mr. Anlos that afternoon, Shade lamented the end of his peaceful life, so instead of staying at home and continuing to read, he took Mia, who was reluctant to leave home, to Coldwater Port.
Coldwater Port in late autumn was still bustling and lively, and while confirming the commission to recover special coins at the Seven Broomsticks Tavern in the dock area, Shade heard people here still chatting about Fort Midhill.
It took only a few days for such a major event as God's Descendant to spread throughout the material world. Now, three weeks later, the ring warlocks have more topics to be awe-inspiring, and they are guessing what happened this year.
Throughout the history of the Sixth Era, it is not unheard of for two divine descending events to occur within one year, but they are usually related things. As for Tobesk in midsummer and Midhill Fort in late autumn, although they are both
A moon god who is suspected of being an old god appears, but the two events don't seem to have any connection.
Now that there is a first time, a second time, there may be a third time. Even though only a few people still know about "", now no matter where the ring magician is, they can feel the turmoil in the world.
Shade was probably favored by an unknown goddess today. Not only did he have an extra lucrative job at noon, but in the afternoon at the Seven Broomsticks Tavern in Coldwater Port, he had been commissioned to acquire special coins for more than three months.
There is actually news.
Because Shade paid the deposit in advance at the tavern, the sturdy bartender bought the two coins directly for him. These were coins that Shade had seen before, a clerical relic [Dandelion Coin]. Be gentle with it.
Blowing air can make coins fly, and using coins can summon any kind of wind that may appear in the local environment.
This coin has a pleasant light blue metallic color and is about the size of a penny. Although there are dandelions on both sides, only one side is engraved with strange text, which is the name of the legendary elemental creatures-the wind elves.
Word--
【May the wind take away all my thoughts.】
Two coins cost Shade 124 pounds and 3 shillings. This clerical-level relic is more valuable because it can amplify any extraordinary power related to wind. Otherwise, the price of ordinary clerical-level relics would not be so high.
After Mia saw this kind of coin last time and "blown it away", she kept blowing at Shade, so this time Shade didn't let the cat touch the coin again, but the cat still recognized it.
Such a fun toy.
With the good mood of acquiring the coins, he took a carriage and headed to the old lighthouse outside the city. Unexpectedly, Mr. Edmond also brought him better news, and there was more than just one piece of good news.
"The special coin you asked for."
Mr. Edmond, who had just reached the top of the sea cliff where the old lighthouse was located and walked up the path carrying a bucket and a fishing rod, said.
Although this old gentleman is the keeper of this old lighthouse, his daily work is actually quite leisurely. He probably spends more time as a black market trader than maintaining the lighthouse.
"Special coins? How many are there?"
Shade asked with a smile. He didn't expect that he would be able to find these coins easily after the Death Chosen incident was over. He spent the last blood money a few weeks ago, but now it seems that it was the right choice to use blood money to find them.
Blood money will only make you fall into the curse of blood money.
"One piece. Do you think a specific relic is so easy to find?"
Mr. Edmond said, handed the bucket to Shade, and then opened the lighthouse door. A week ago, the [Spiritual Cultivation Order] had contacted the old man, and the [Light-Guiding Hermitage] had also contacted Dave.
Sister Lin gave valuable information and made a lot of money, so the old man became more friendly to Shade.
Shade, who was holding Mia, followed Mr. Edmund into the first floor of the lighthouse. The latter walked to the table, opened the drawer, picked up a small brown old leather bag tied with a hemp rope, and threw it into Shade's hands.
.
Opening the bag, there is a sky blue coin inside. But unlike the [Dandelion Coin] I just got, this blue color is not natural, and the traces of artificiality are very serious:
"Poet Level - [Coin of Wisdom], throw this coin into a water glass, and then drink the water, you can temporarily improve your wisdom and enhance your talents in certain fields. But when the effect of the coin disappears, there will be a slight
It will damage your intelligence, and high-frequency use for a short period of time will cause mental confusion. What is very interesting is that this kind of coin is addictive."
The old gentleman turned his back to Shade, carrying the kettle and preparing to boil water, and sighed:
"Wisdom can also be addictive, but who can give up that outstanding talent?"
Long-term and high-frequency use of [Coin of Wisdom] will eventually cause the user's soul to degenerate and corrupt into a terrifying spiritual monster. The monster that carries the whisper element and is named "Wisdom Demon" usually requires at least one
Only a 9th level warlock can fight alone.
The size of the coin is similar to the [Dandelion Coin]. On one side is the head of an unknown old man with a beard, and below it is written——
【Blue is the color of wisdom.】.
On one side is the equation "One plus one equals two" engraved with ancient mathematical symbols, and below it is written——
【A wise man will not fall into the river of desire.】
Shade took the coin, looked at the cat he was holding with one hand, thought for a moment, and decided not to try to use the coin to make little Mia smarter.
【why?】
she asked in the sea breeze blowing through the tower door.
"Because this cat is already smart enough."
PS: To summarize, now Shade has two [Eternal Youth Leaves] and three special coins in his hand. Luvia also has one [Soothsayer's Silver Coin] in her hand, but Shade is not willing to consume the latter easily.
