In the end, there was a stalemate, and Sherlock gave in first. After all, he came to ask for help first.
Ignoring the two key figures Aigao and Bui, he gave a brief summary of his mission. In exchange, he also got Sally's current situation.
The result was not beyond his expectation. Although Sally's body was repaired by the power of the contract, the mental damage and personality distortion were too serious. The servility and animality seemed to have been rooted deep in the other party's heart.
They were so confused that no matter how much Tang Lie and the others tried to persuade them, it was of no use. Only then did they think of going to the temple of Lathander to ask for help.
In addition, after becoming someone else's familiar, Sally can actually use the player's skill book to learn skills, but the success rate is low, especially spells, which are difficult to learn.
Knowing that this kind of contract might not be able to help Bui return to his original state, Sherlock simply gave up on this path. It seemed that he still needed to find the man in black robe and ask questions.
After bidding farewell to Tang Lie, he also returned to the Stalwart Adventurers Guild. The hag's eyes that he asked the librarian Xipu to process before should be fine.
After paying a processing fee of 100,000 gold coins, a pair of glasses with colorful brilliance flowing on the surface appeared in his hands.
Sipu's reading glasses (legendary, strange object): Perception 4, illusion resistance 60%, attached skill—Vision of Truth (when turned on, perception 3, you can see the attributes of all targets within sight), attached spell—Psychic Dream Building
(Planting a random fantasy in the target's mind). Do not steal.
When he saw the high processing fee, Sherlock had a vague guess about what he was about to get. The legendary equipment was already rare enough, but he didn't expect that what he got was a legendary item.
Compare this to the scroll that was sold for 3.99 million in the auction house just now. Even excluding Sally's value, it is still at the beginning of one million. If he wants to buy this thing, the price will definitely be higher than lower.
With a maximum perception bonus of 7 points and 60% illusion resistance, all future illusions of the same level will probably no longer be effective against him.
I don’t know what the attached Truth Sight effect is, but I should be able to save money on reconnaissance scrolls in the future.
Finally, there is the spiritual dream-building spell. In the hands of the hag, this spell shines brilliantly. Now it has become part of the props. The effect is definitely weakened, but it is still worth looking forward to.
"Master Xipu, you, you... thank you, master." Sherlock had nothing to say at this moment and could only express his gratitude.
Sipu, who was sitting opposite, raised his eyes of the same style and said: "It's just mutual benefit. Originally, I wanted to make one mask, but the energy of this hag's eye is not very high, so I can only make two.
If you find the same material in the future, you can have someone help you modify it."
With the same materials, Sherlock doesn't expect to get another hag's eye.
Since then, Shylock's trip to Sousal has finally come to an end, and now all that's left is the coronation ceremony two days later.
To be honest, judging from the information learned, Susal would definitely not be peaceful that day. If it were not for the purpose of tracing the whereabouts of the man in black robe and the subsequent regional drama, he would probably choose to leave temporarily to ensure his own safety.
For two days, with the support of the intelligence network and professional circle provided by Jack, Sherlock finally found some clues.
This man in black robes has been attending various large-scale events in the past two days, constantly selling his contract scroll set like a salesman.
According to Ge Erpang's statistics, at least 6 players have bought this set from each other, and tens of millions of assets have been swept away by it. He is simply a role model in the hearts of all businessmen.
And just today, during the coronation ceremony of King Aron V, the other party had a trade meeting in Urga's Curio Shop.
To be honest, Sherlock still wanted to watch this grand ceremony. After all, as a Chinese, joining in the fun is an innate interest, and it was also the first time in this game that so many high-level NPCs had gathered together.
However, compared to this, it is more practical to track down the man in black robe. He has a hunch that this may be the last transaction of the other party in Susar.
"Ai Gao, be careful about the backdoor. Don't forget to use the communication scroll as soon as possible. And if there is danger, you must ensure your own safety. You know, we adventurers will not die." Sherlock once again instructed.
road.
Since they have not had the opportunity to use reconnaissance skills on the opponent before, until now, they do not know the opponent's attributes. If it is a BOSS of level 30 or 40, it is okay. If it is a second-level profession higher than level 50, they have no choice but to give up.
.
After the three bells of life were struck in the morning, a 5-year-old boy sitting on the throne far away on the terrace of the palace was listening to the cheers of the people and the coronation oath read by his aunt, Jalouselle.
The little boy actually didn't like his aunt. This woman, whom everyone called the Iron Princess, was completely different from his mother. He would be punished by her if he made the slightest mistake or even just a slight disobedience.
This situation will not improve with his coronation, because at the same time, his aunt, who is the Iron Princess, will also officially become the Iron Regent and temporarily manage state affairs for him.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty, the oath has been completed."
Hearing the reminder from the personal maid, the little boy came back from his random thoughts. When he turned around, he saw his aunt's stern eyes, which scared him and stood up immediately.
The next step should be to just walk up to the stage and show your face. This shouldn't be difficult.
He walked forward cautiously, raised his right hand like he had practiced thousands of times before, and then shouted with his loudest voice: "Cormier's..."
As soon as he uttered four words, he felt a hot energy penetrate his body. When he lowered his head, he saw a sharp blade piercing out from three centimeters below his chest.
"Ah——" This heartbreaking pain was not something a little boy could bear.
"There's an assassin!"
"Catch the murderer!"
"careful!"
"stop!"
In the chaos, Yalusel ignored the escaped killer. He held his seriously injured nephew in one hand and held the scepter representing the Cormyr royal family in the other. He said calmly: "Rehast, Val
Well, take action, and the rest of you will stay quiet."
This scene on the terrace was not only visible to the people above, but also to the countless civilians, nobles, and people from other forces lurking below.
The only successor of a country was assassinated on the day of his coronation, and his life and death are unknown. This change is enough to plunge any country into turmoil, let alone Cormyr, who is beleaguered internally and externally. The desires of all careerists are now ready to move.

At the same time, all players in Susar received a system prompt.
Regional Announcement: The large-scale regional plot turmoil in the royal city has officially begun. All restrictions in the city have been temporarily lifted, and players can freely choose their actions in this plot.
