Chapter 124 Advance

1 Seeing that it was getting late, Lumian planned to study Aurore's witchcraft notes until midnight, and then go to Franka tomorrow morning to ask if the "Harvest Festival" had been sold, and asked her to help keep an eye on the fire salamanders.

Auxiliary materials such as salamander blood and magma pyroxene powder.

Well, Franka is a person who sleeps late and wakes up late. If I go to find her now, she must still be awake. She will probably be asleep before 11 o'clock tomorrow morning... Suddenly, Lumi

An changed her mind, packed up the wooden table, got up and left the Golden Rooster Hotel.

No. 3 Baiyi Street, in front of Apartment 601.

After Lumian knocked a few times, he saw Franca, who had long flaxen hair and was wearing a lake blue silk nightgown, opening the door.

"What's going on this time?" the "witch" asked with a smile while getting out of the way.

Lumian did not answer immediately. He looked around and said, "Jiana isn't here?"

Franka unconsciously stopped smiling: "Are you here to find her? She doesn't need to sing tonight, she has gone home long ago."

Lumian nodded: "That's good, lest you ask me to climb the outer wall and leave later."

"..." The corner of Franka's mouth twitched, "Are you here to laugh at me?"

After playing a simple prank, Lumian sat on the gray couch.

Just as he was about to speak, Franca had curled up into the easy chair, causing the hem of her nightgown to slip up significantly. Franca said with a "tsk, tsk" smile: "You were not in the market area in the afternoon, so you didn't see the good show.

"The police cleaned up all the places involving gangs. Brignel, Simon, Christo, and Blake were all brought into the police headquarters. They were almost arrested by the official extraordinary people and treated as typical examples. Fortunately,

, Gardner found the newly elected Hugues Artois and asked him to put pressure on the two major churches and the police headquarters. After throwing a few scapegoats, the matter was settled."

Hugues Artois is indeed connected with the boss... Lumian laughed: "You were not arrested?"

"I didn't go to those places today. I spent the entire afternoon "fighting evil" with Jenna and my top dancer. Why did I get caught? So, there's nothing wrong with being lazy. One of my favorite sayings

Yes, lazy people are blessed with laziness." Franka responded with a smile.

"I've never heard of it." Lumian asked casually, "Where's the saying?"

"I made it up." Franka replied nonchalantly.

Lumian thought about Franka's description just now and asked as if to verify his guess: "It was Jenna who suggested not going out in the afternoon and playing cards in the room?"

"How do you know?" Franka was quite surprised.

She looked Lumian up and down, and her eyes became suspicious: Could it be that Jenna told him herself? They had so many communications in private?

Lumian did not hide anything and said frankly: "Charlie came to see me today, and Jenna happened to be there too. From his mouth, I learned that this afternoon, the official Beyonder Association and the Police Headquarters would conduct a large-scale cleanup of gang members in the market area.

"I told Jenna to keep it secret so as not to affect Charlie. It seems that she really kept her word and just dragged you into the apartment in her own way."

"No wonder you're not here this afternoon." Franka suddenly realized.

She was a little complacent immediately: Jian Na's heart is still towards me.

After sighing with satisfaction, Franka asked cautiously: "Why did Jenna go to you?"

"Roger the Black Scorpion was killed. She felt that I, a person who always had trouble with the Stinger Gang, was very suspicious." Lumian smiled.

Franka said half relieved and half amused: "This matter was actually taken away by Ji Guanghui.

"Ever since I came to Trier, I have read in the newspapers every once in a while that something happened in a certain area, and the terrorist organization Aurora claimed responsibility for it. Unexpectedly, it was finally our turn to enjoy such a thing.

After receiving the treatment, the follow-up investigation was misled, and no one doubted us."

The "Aurora Society" should indeed be responsible for this matter... Lumian followed Franka and laughed a few words before bringing the topic back on track: "I took the opportunity to attend an occult party in the afternoon and got the arsonist's magic potion formula.

, and there are also clues to the corresponding main material.”

"Good luck." Franka's eyes widened slightly, "If it weren't for Intis, I would have doubted whether you were lying to me. That is, in Intis, the arsonist's potion formula is so common and easy.

Encounter."

Lumian made a request: "Please help me pay attention to the blood of the fire salamander, the powder of magma pyroxene and the red-crowned impatiens. They are auxiliary materials."

He did not mention the Holy Star Lily because it is relatively common and can be found in larger flower shops.

"No problem." Franka asked in detail about the weight of each ingredient, and finally said, "Do you still have enough money? I mean the money to buy the main ingredients of the potion."

In her opinion, the "arsonist's" potion formula should have wiped out Lumian's savings.

Lumian took advantage of the situation and said, "I was just about to ask if the Harvest Festival was sold."

"How can it be so fast? It's only been a day. I haven't had time to attend any occult gatherings yet." Franka paused and said, "If you are in a hurry for money, I can lend you some. Anyway, I won't be able to pay you back for a while."

Need to think about the next potion."

"There's no rush." ​​Lumian thought for a moment and said. He hadn't collected all the supporting materials yet.

Franka made an estimate and said: "According to my experience, the negative effects of the Harvest Festival are difficult to avoid, and the price cannot be too high, which is between 10,000 and 20,000 Firkin.

"When you need money, I can directly give you 6,000 ferkin, as if I have bought out the harvest offering. In addition, I can also lend you 20,000 to 30,000 ferkin, but you need to give it within three months.

Give it back to me."

"Okay." Lumian agreed without any politeness.

He immediately took out "Corrupted Mercury" and said to Franka: "I still need to find someone who can repair extraordinary weapons."

Franka looked at the short knife with layers of evil patterns and asked doubtfully: "What is the value of repairing an extraordinary weapon? The energy will be exhausted anyway."

"It's so useful that it can be used for a while." Lumian certainly couldn't say that he had a way to replenish energy for "Corrupted Mercury."

Of course, that would have to wait until he reaches the Sequence 6 level and is more able to withstand the effects of pollution. Otherwise, that guy from Termipolos will probably take the opportunity to cause trouble.

"Yes." Franka was deeply impressed by the performance of "Fallen Mercury" in the battle to kill "Black Scorpion" Roger, "I will ask for you, but this extraordinary weapon that is suspected of being contaminated,

There shouldn’t be many craftsmen who would take over the job for fear of having a bad impact on themselves.”

"Artisans"... Extraordinary people who can repair magical items and extraordinary weapons? After Lumian and Franka exchanged a few more words, they left Room 601, returned to Market Avenue, and entered the Breeze Ballroom.

Although the time was close to midnight, it was still quite lively here. Lumian entered the financial office located in the corridor on the second floor. While opening the safe there, he asked the accountant and cashier on the night shift: "How much cash do you have now?"

The accountant is a lady in her thirties, wearing glasses and very polite.

She said with a little trepidation: "Almost 80,000 ferkin, plus some change."

At this time, Lumian had opened the door of the safe and saw the stacks of banknotes and the coins that were shining with golden light.

He calculated it and said calmly: "Give me 20,000 ferkin."

"Huh?" The accountant and cashier made frightened sounds at the same time.

Although Mr. Charles is the protector of Breeze Ballroom, he cannot take so much cash in one go.

The accountant lady winked at the younger cashier lady and asked her to go to the next door office to find the ballroom manager Rene.

The operator designated by Gardner Martin was dressed in formal attire. He looked at the safe and said, "Mr. Charles, why did you withdraw 20,000 Firkin?"

"Personal expenses." Lumian responded calmly.

Rene pondered for a few seconds and said, "No problem.

"In the past two years, Baron Brignel took between 40,000 and 50,000 felkin in cash from the ballroom each year. But during the previous handover, he took away 50,000 felkin that originally belonged to the first half of the year.

It’s not yet the second half of the year. Mr. Charles, how about treating these 20,000 Ferkin as an advance?”

"Okay." Lumian doesn't care what name he uses, he only wants these 20,000 ferkin.

After putting the cash into the bag, Lumian breathed a sigh of relief silently.

We have almost collected the 30,000 Felkin to purchase the extraordinary characteristics of "Arsonist", and we are just waiting for news on the auxiliary materials.

——He now has a total of 26,710 ferkin, and the "Harvest Festival" can still be worth 6,000.

After leaving the Breeze Ballroom, Lumian, who was carrying a large amount of cash, suddenly felt a little uneasy.

He was not afraid of being robbed, but he was worried that a conflict would break the purse and break the banknotes.

It has to be placed in a safe place, and it cannot be carried around like this... Lumian walked along Market Avenue, intending to transfer to the safe house he rented on White Coat Street.

Not long after, he saw the brightly lit office of the Congressman in the Market District.

This is a four-story building with a classic khaki color.

There is a statue on each of the top two floors, namely "Sunbird" and "Giant Gear".

The celebration dinner is not over yet... Lumian shook his head disdainfully.

He thought for a moment, sat in the shadows across the street, and observed the guests leaving the banquet hall.

It is definitely not easy for Hugues-Artois to be supported by the Savoie Party and the Stinger Gang and praised as the "Lady of the Moon". Maybe some of the guests he invited are "problem people" who are related to the "Iron Cross"

"related to the plot.

Time passed by, and more and more guests left the congressman's office. Lumian did not find anyone suspicious. He could only confirm that most of them belonged to the upper class, and they were all well-dressed. Many of their faces had appeared in big or small houses before.

On a small newspaper.

Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure.

That was Gardner Martin with a friendly temperament, fleshy cheeks, black sideburns with a few silver hairs, and reddish brown eyes.

Gardner Martin, the leader of the Savoy party.

Gardner, who was wearing a tuxedo and a dark bow tie, seemed to be aware of it. He suddenly turned his head and looked at the shadow where Lumian was sitting.

Lumian's heart shook unconsciously.

His thoughts whirled, he made an instant decision, stood up, and walked towards Gardner Martin.

Gardner Martin looked at him with deep eyes, without showing any emotion.

"Good evening, boss." After approaching, Lumian bowed his head and greeted.

Gardner Martin asked casually: "What are you doing here?"

Lumian answered honestly: "I came out of the Breeze Ballroom and saw that the dinner in the parliamentarian's office was not over yet. I planned to see which guests Mr. Hugues Artois had invited, so as not to offend the wrong people in the future."

Gardner Martin nodded gently and said calmly: "This is a good habit."

He immediately signaled to Lumian that he could leave, and he took the butler Faustino to the private carriage that was approaching.

Lumian felt relieved. He followed him and said proactively: "Boss, I made an advance of 20,000 ferkin at the ballroom today."
