After so many missions, Linn and Reiner's schedules became different from ordinary people, so they went back to lie down in the afternoon and fell asleep not long after.
However, they only slept for four or five hours before they woke up naturally one after another.
After having a meal out and making some preparations, they returned to the vicinity of the Old Nanyue Hotel at around 11pm on January 24th.
"The six-pointed astrolabe is probably a bit conspicuous now." Reiner wrapped his clothes tightly and looked around.
It's late at night, and the moon is still completely covered today, leaving only the faint light from the street lamps spaced ten meters apart.
At this time, a golden astrolabe suddenly appeared. Once ordinary people noticed it, they would be very busy.
When they use their extraordinary abilities, they have not been discovered by ordinary people.
But after chatting with Ulysses, Munro, and the God-given Society, they learned that after ordinary people discover extraordinary abilities, ordinary people will become "noise".
The mysterious existence will give them a very harsh time to clear out the 'noise'.
If the clearing is successful, everything will be fine; if the clearing fails, the 'noise' will be erased together.
Let's not talk about whether the ordinary people who unfortunately become "noise points" are good or bad. Even if they are bad people, it is not a small trouble to eliminate them without leaving any trace.
So this kind of thing should generally be avoided if possible.
"Can't you make it darker?" Lynn asked as she thought.
"Dark it?" Reiner was stunned for a moment.
This was something he had never thought about.
Ever since he just redeemed the six-pointed star plate, it has been a shiny thing.
But...it seems possible to try?
"Wait a minute." Reiner entered the alley and blocked a small area with Linn to prevent the light source from leaking out.
Then, with a thought, a six-pointed star disk emitting golden light gradually emerged from the ground, but this time Reiner not only controlled its size, but also deliberately changed its brightness.
They saw a six-pointed star disk about the size of a palm hovering at the height of their chests, and then the dazzling light began to dim and finally merged into the darkness.
Does it really work?!
Reiner glanced at Linn in surprise: "This..."
Lin En chuckled: "It seems that you have underestimated the power of the six-pointed astrolabe. If you can change its brightness, it will have even more effects."
"Interesting, this is a possibility I have never imagined." Reiner stared at the hovering six-pointed star disk, adjusting its brightness slightly so that the two of them could at least distinguish its exact position in the dark.
"Try to see if you can make it transparent." Lin En continued to use his imagination.
If the six-pointed astrolabe could become transparent, then the power of this thing could be directly upgraded to a higher level.
The transparent manipulation of 'throwing' can be used as a hidden weapon to catch the unexpected.
Put it under your feet and drag yourself up, which can serve as the most convenient and fastest means of transportation.
Standing it up in front of you can also serve as an invisible defensive shield.
At that time, these three uses alone can confuse the enemy and make them mistakenly think that Reiner has a variety of tricky extraordinary abilities, so they will not dare to confront him head-on.
"No..." But unfortunately, after Reiner tried it, he found that he could only control the brightness of the six-pointed star disk, make it transparent, or change the color.
Lin En comforted: "It is already very strong. At least it will be a big killer in the middle of the night."
"Yeah." Reiner was extremely satisfied with controlling the brightness. He immediately controlled the brightness of the astrolabe to a level where the outline could be seen clearly, and then enlarged it to an area that could accommodate two people standing under it, "Come up."
"To what extent can the maximum and minimum differences in an astrolabe be expanded?" Linn asked.
This is equally important.
If the astrolabe could be reduced to the point of insignificance, it would be easy to kill someone invisible.
If it can be enlarged to cover the sky of a city, it can be called a powerful force.
"The maximum diameter does not exceed four meters, and the minimum diameter does not exceed fifteen centimeters." Reiner began to use the astrolabe to propel himself and Linn up.
"Have you ever asked the curator how many points are needed for further expansion?" Lin En asked.
"I only asked once. Expanding to five meters will cost about a thousand points." Reiner shook his head slightly, "The price/performance ratio is too low. This is enough for now."
"Hmm." Lin En also felt that it was extravagant to add a thousand points to expand one meter.
The difference between four meters and five meters is not big.
But if you really want to use the hexagram to exert its destructive power, you need to expand it to a range of 100 meters.
With that said, the two of them came to the rooftop of the building next to the Old Nanyue Hotel.
Because it was getting dark, they didn't stop and went straight to the top of the Old South York Hotel.
"Oh, it's really cold." The wind on the rooftop was a bit strong, and the temperature dropped sharply at night. Linn couldn't help but shiver all over as soon as he stood up.
"Yeah, but it's better than a month and a half ago." Reiner walked straight to the door and waited for Linn to open the door.
Lin En glanced at the edge of the rooftop, came to the door entering the hotel, opened the door again with telekinesis, and then cautiously pushed it open a crack as usual, making sure there was no one nearby, and then took Reiner along.
The stairs moved down little by little.
When they approached the Old South Testament Building, they paid special attention to the lights inside.
There is good news.
The lights on the top floor, which is the dining floor, are off.
This means that they can at least go to the eighth floor smoothly.
Another good news is that many of the remaining floors still have lights on.
It's past ten o'clock in the evening, and only the Marquis of Aldrich has been entertained today. If the Marquis of Aldrich has already left, then the lights on most floors should have been turned off by this time.
If it's not turned off, it means the hotel is still operating.
It is still operating, which means that Marquis Aldrich is still in it.
Compared to the day, night is naturally more suitable for doing shameful things. Linn and Reiner both felt that there would be a major discovery in the Old South York Hotel tonight.
"Let's just go down." With the experience gained in the afternoon, Linn made sure that there was no one on the top floor, and then tiptoed toward the eighth floor.
Although the lights are on on the eighth floor, only the corridor lights are on routinely.
After a brief inquiry, the two confirmed that this quiet floor was the guest room.
Marquis Aldrich was not eating, nor was he staying in the guest room, he could only be busy with other things.
After checking the eighth floor, Linn and Reiner walked towards the seventh floor with even greater expectations.
The seventh floor is also a guest room, and only the corridor is lit, so it is difficult to see the hotel staff.
They didn't even meet anyone on the third floor. The two people who had been on high alert for ten minutes began to relax.
"They should all use the elevator to move up and down." Lin En analyzed, "At this point, it is difficult to have people in the hotel stairwell, which is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. Here is our opportunity."
