Chapter 148: Are you surprised or not? Are you surprised or not?

Outside the North District of Bakerland.

After the afternoon of the Tarot meeting, Forth and Hug came here in a carriage. Because today is not just Monday, it is the day of the Tarot meeting, but also the full moon night, and members of the Abraham family also need to receive "treatment" on this day.

The carriage drove straight into a large manor with an active floor and parked outside the main house with dozens of other carriages. Then, she and Fors each led a petite and cute loli into the main house.

"Miss Forth."

As soon as he stepped through the door, Dorian Gray came up with a smile on his face. He looked around and asked hesitantly, "Has Mr. Ash still not come back?"

Fors saw Dorian's thoughts and smiled slightly:

"He is back, but he doesn't want to be disturbed by these trivial matters, so I will still carry out the 'treatment' in the future."

Not only the treatment, but also her responsibility for the subsequent contact with the Abraham family. However, Fors did not say it clearly because she believed that Dorian could hear what she meant.

"Is this how?"

Dorian's eyes clearly showed a look of disappointment and said with a wry smile, "For him, maybe this is really just a trivial matter."

Fors showed a dissatisfied expression just right, as if she saw Dorian's thoughts - although Fors had proved that she also had the ability to "heal", Embers were obviously more trustworthy in the eyes of the other party than Fors, a "beginner".

Of course, in Forss's view, there is actually a more convenient "treatment" method, which is to pray for blessing from Mr. "Fool". Compared to the method of "healing tears" that must be gathered together and prayed to the "Fool" without any additional conditions, they can pray anytime and anywhere, so they don't have to come to Beckland.

And this may be the true meaning of the Abraham family prophesy, "Only flames and fools can save Abraham." However, neither Fors nor Hugh would tell Abrahams about this. After all, they are selfish.

Of course Dorian didn't know what Fors was thinking, he just hesitated and asked:

"Miss Forth, how many more can you use your healing ability?"

“More than ten more times.”

Fursi asked calmly, "Even if it is used up, you can re-record it. Is there any problem?"

Dorian was silent for a long time, and said slowly but firmly:

"I hope to take this opportunity to try to be promoted to the record officer of Sequence 6."

"Your potion has been completely digested?" Fors asked subconsciously.

"Yes." Dorian smiled with a little self-deprecating smile.

"It's not just me, many family members have completed the digestion of the potion. After all, we've been in Sequence 7 for too long."

Fors looked inexplicably, and she was not surprised by the result. After all, for the Abraham family who had a complete apprenticeship and acting method, digestion of potions was not the end. The biggest obstacle to their promotion was the curse from blood!

You should know that even for ordinary extraordinary people, the higher the sequence, the risk of losing control will increase accordingly. For Abrahams who are cursed and tortured, their risks are even greater than those of ordinary extraordinary people! Because not only the full moon, when they try to improve their extraordinary sequence, murmuring will also come simultaneously, and the madness of murmuring is much higher than that of the full moon!

It's okay in the low sequence, Abrahams can rely on their strong willpower and add some magical items to help them survive the ravings again and again. But once they try to advance to Sequence 6, which is truly the threshold for the middle sequence, the horror of the ravings they suffer will increase exponentially.

This has also led to the fact that the Abraham family has never given birth to any truly extraordinary middle-sequence in the sense of the extraordinary, even if the members of the Presbyterian like Dorian have only serial 7 at most, because those extraordinary people who try to advance to serial 6 have already lost control in their murmurings!

And the reason why he is willing to try to be promoted is because Forsy has a healing tears that can heal murmurs. This ability may be able to help him during promotion and let him survive the most difficult curse.

Fors was not surprised by this, because this can be seen from the inheritance of the Abraham family. Even though he was cursed, the Abraham family has never been willing to be mediocre for thousands of years. Even if they were split into small families and scattered around the world, most of them did not give up their own inheritance. Otherwise, they would not have maintained a terrifying scale of hundreds of extraordinary people while being cursed.

I didn't try to promote before because they knew that promotion would definitely die. But now Abrahams have the opportunity to fight, and of course they will not let it go. The only problem is that this opportunity is not in their hands—

Because the person who has the ability to heal rasp is Ember, and there is only Fols who has Lemano's travel notes, who can record these abilities.

Forsy was silent for a long time and suddenly asked:

"You should have other magical items made of extraordinary characteristics of the record officer?"

The Abraham family who can send out magical items such as Lemano Travel Notes casually has no reason to have other extraordinary items of the same type.

"have."

Dorian nodded and said frankly, "There are at least five magical items of the same type, but I can guarantee that there was no Abraham trying to secretly record this ability in the last treatment."

"What's the use of just saying it? Even if you guys secretly record it, I can't know." Forsy whispered in his heart.

Of course, Forss just complained. She knew that Dorian had no need to lie to her, after all, the initiative was in her hands. Because if members of the Abraham family secretly used similar extraordinary items to record the healing tears, Forss could have rejected the next step of treatment on this ground.

Even if Abrahams successfully recorded healing tears, they actually could not be maintained for a long time. Because every record is an iteration, and the effect of each iteration is only 80% of the previous iteration, which means that the effect of the recorded "healing tears" will only get worse and worse, not to mention that the success rate of this iteration is not 100%!

With the failure of the record and the effect decay caused by iterations, it will take a long time for the Abraham family to lose the ability to heal, and then they will still have to look back for the help of Fors and Embers. Once there is a precedent for betrayal, it is easy to imagine how difficult it is to get help.

The reason why Fors could understand was impossible for members of the Abraham family to understand. Instead of taking the risk of turning against each other, it is better to be honest. That's why Dorian appeared here and took the initiative to reveal to Fors's purpose of his attempt to advance, so as to seek her help. Of course, this is actually a temptation, testing Fors' attitude towards their promotion.

"Can."

Fors nodded slightly and said bluntly, "But beforehand, I am only responsible for using my abilities, and I am not responsible for anything else. Because I am not sure whether 'Healing Tears' can eliminate the whispers I hear during promotion, so Mr. Dorian, you have to measure the risk of promotion yourself."

"Thank you for your help, Ms. Forth."

Dorian chuckled, his voice was not loud, but his eyes were extremely firm, and he said gently, "As for the risks, it is inevitable, but I am ready, and each of us is ready to sacrifice ourselves for the family. If something goes wrong, Verdu will take over my position and contact you on behalf of the Abraham family."

Fors nodded silently, and seemed to suddenly remember something, reminding him:

"Mr. X, I told you before, do you have any clues?"

Dorian was silent for two seconds, and his face, which had a little relaxed and comfortable expression, suddenly became solemn, and said in a deep voice:

"Based on the portrait you provided by Ms. Forth, we can basically confirm that this is one of those who betrayed Abraham and joined the Aurora Society. Combined with their strength when they defected, this Mr. X is probably my student, Louis Vine. This person is very dangerous. If you meet him next time, remember to avoid him!"

“How dangerous?”

Don't ask back.

As the 'arbitrator' route sequence 7, she can remember anyone's appearance and image effortlessly and restore it accurately. Abrahams judged the other party's identity based on the portrait of Mr. X she provided - although the other party was wearing a mask at the party, his figure and height could not be concealed, after all, he was not a faceless person.

Dorian glanced at the short lady and told him:

"When he betrayed us, he was already a recorder, and now he may even become a traveler. You should already know what the apprenticeship traveler and recorder are capable of, and many times he is even harder to deal with than some demigods!"

Hugh and Forth looked at each other and immediately understood.

The ‘Record Officer’ can record the full-strength attack of the demigod, while the ‘Traveler’ can allow the other party to move quickly that most demigods cannot. When facing demigods in certain ways, the ‘Traveler’ in Sequence 5 can easily escape, and there is even the possibility of counter-killing! Of course, there is only this possibility. After all, each demigod has very powerful abilities, and even if it is not as flexible as the ‘Traveler’, it cannot be easily counter-killed.

While speaking, they also led them to the hall of the party under Dorian. Hundreds of extraordinary people from the Abraham family gathered together, and they were different from the anxiety and tension she had when she was in the villa outside Pulitz Harbor. Abrahams, who had experienced a treatment, were full of confidence in this treatment, so the corresponding atmosphere was much better.

They gathered together in groups, sitting or standing, communicating various things, some took plates to pick up pastries and fruits from the table in the buffet form. Those who hoped to escape the hustle and bustle for a short time entered the balcony attached to the hall, looking at the scenery in the garden and the dusk of the sky. And they were not worried about the upcoming red moon and curse, because Abrahams had already had a way to fight the curse!

Fors rubbed the head of the little loli beside him in a pampering manner and asked with concern:

"Kulala, what do you want to eat?"

"Um~"

The little loli, who was carved with jade, raised her face and whispered, "Ice cream."

Fors hesitated for a moment and looked at the dining table. Although there were all kinds of exquisite pastries on it, there was no ice cream. After all, it was December and it was already winter. Even if the temperature in Beckland rarely dropped below zero, it was not warm at all. No one of the chefs would have thought that anyone would want to eat ice cream in winter...

"I'll order the chef right away..."

Dorian was about to speak when a girl next to him who also heard the request suddenly lit up and said immediately, "I can make ice cream. The kitchen has ingredients. You can start making it now, but I still need two magicians to help!"

"I, I, I!"

"I'll do it! I've been promoted to Sequence 8 long ago, and I'm more skillful in using spells than you!"

"Stop it! Who can't make ice? It seems that this requires a lot of proficiency!"

The young men and women next to them suddenly lit up their eyes and rushed to raise their hands one by one. In the end, the three lucky ones were selected by the girl and followed her into the kitchen. As for the purpose - although the master of magic is not very combat-ready, one of the abilities is to allow the water to cool down and freeze quickly. Although winter is cold, it is obviously unrealistic to make ice cream just by relying on the weather. The master of magic is, if used directly in combat, it is of no use, but it is still quite interesting in life.

Dorian took back what he was going to say and half-jokingly said:

"I think the ice cream should be ready soon, but what I'm even more curious is, what's the relationship between these two girls and you? Could it be your daughters?"

It is definitely impossible for a daughter. After all, these two are only in their early twenties, so how could they have a pair of eleven or twelve-year-old daughters?

"It's a nanny, no, bodyguard." Fors said seriously.

"oh."

Dorian nodded in a clear mind, probably guessing that one of their relatives had no time to take care of the children and gave them to take care of them.

I took two exquisite pastries on the dinner plate and fed Curalis while reminding me:

"You weren't followed when you came, were you?"

The reason why Mr. x appeared in Beckland was to notice that Beckland was looking at the gathering of members of the Abraham family. Hugh and Forth could ensure that they had left no trace, but members of the Abraham family might not be able to fully understand.

For example, Dorian, Mr. X is his apprentice. Both parties only need to meet each other, and Mr. X will probably recognize Dorian and follow him all the way to this manor. There are hundreds of people in the Abraham family, and these hundreds of people are likely to be followed!

"Won't."

Dorian replied in a more relaxed tone, "Many of our members had arrived in Beckland a month ago, and most of them moved directly into the manor after arriving. The food and supplies were purchased by hired servants. After receiving your reminder, I also reminded others in time to avoid going out and not use their abilities. Since those traitors joined the Aurora Society, we will often play hide-and-seek with them, and are quite skilled in dealing with the Aurora Society. And..."

Dori settled down, curled his smile and said in a deep voice, "This situation won't last too long!"

As long as he can successfully advance to Sequence 6, it means that Abrahams can temporarily ignore the curse and continue to advance! There are many members in the family who have stayed in Sequence 7 for a long time, which means that the family can have multiple extraordinary people in Sequence 6 in a short period of time!

Once you become the "recording officer" of Sequence 6, the extraordinary person in the "apprentice" path can truly have combat power. Even with the magical items in the hands of the family, the record officer of Sequence 6 can also have extraordinary abilities far more abundant than other extraordinary people.

As long as you can successfully promote to the extraordinary person in Sequence 6, sequence 5 or even sequence 4 will no longer be a luxury over time! Among those extraordinary persons who betray Abraham, the strongest is still Sequence 4, because they have not mastered the potion formula for apprenticeship route Sequence 3.

This also means that as long as Abraham can have his own demigod, they no longer have to hide in the world like they are now! With demigods, they will have the ability to compete with the Aurora and even have the opportunity to regain the lost seals from those traitors!
To be continued...
