Old bones from the Fourth Age... Lumian ignored the emotional descriptions of the "doll" messenger and extracted the most critical information.
But compared with the information learned before, this does not go into substantial depth. After all, most of the problems under Trier originate from the Quaternary Period.
Lumian considered and asked again:
"Where are they from and what do these old bones look like?"
"Doll" the messenger replied angrily:
"I've never seen them before! Their smell is so disgusting, so disgusting, so dirty!
It turns out that you don't know the specific situation... Lumian did not disturb the "doll" messenger again and watched her disappear from sight with the neatly folded letter paper.
Until this time, Lumian, who was waiting for the reply from Ms. "Magician", had time to review tonight's harvest:
A bottle of "Veritaserum", a bottle of "Blissful Society" drug, a bottle of occult smelling salts and 1,500 Filkins.
Inside Apartment 601, No. 3 Baiyi Street.
"So late? I thought you would solve it quickly." Jenna, who was wearing a thin cotton skirt, stood up and faced the door after seeing Franka coming back.
She felt that Franka and Ciel, even if they met the "fallen tree spirit", had a chance of winning, and it was not small!
Franka mumbled and said:
"Something unexpected happened, uh, just wait a moment."
Franka looked at Jenna, her expression suddenly became solemn.
"What's wrong?" Jenna smelled an unusual smell.
Franca walked next to her and observed her pupils.
No trace of wearing blue contact lenses!
"Huh..." Franka breathed a sigh of relief and said, "For a period of time, we have to constantly confirm whether each other is an 'actor' pretending to be another.
The "actors" of the "Mother Tree of Desire" path cannot change flesh and blood or fundamentally adjust their appearance like the "faceless men". They have to rely more on the assistance of cosmetic items and various props.
Among them, eye color is the most difficult part for "actors" to touch and requires the use of external objects. By observing whether the people around you are wearing colored contact lenses, you can prevent "actors" from getting close to you to the greatest extent.
Of course, this doesn't always work, as you can find an "actor" with the same eye color as the target.
As far as the current situation is concerned, Maip Meier's eye color is dark brown, Jenna's is blue, Lumian is the same, and Franka's is lighter, more like the blue of the lake, so we won't use it for the time being.
Worried about being disguised by the former manager of the old Pigeon Cage Theater - Maiple Meyer has become alienated from the "Blessed Society" and will not be able to train new "actors" for a while.
The only one who needs to worry is Anthony Reed, who also has a pair of dark brown eyes.
As an actor apprentice at the Old Pigeon Cage Theatre, Jian Na was very sensitive to the issue of the "Blissful Society". She was instantly vigilant, looked into Franka's eyes, and asked with a little fear:
"Are they planning the market area again?"
"It's Maipu Meier. He has returned to the market area. I don't know where he is hiding." Franka did not hide anything and told the whole story exactly.
Among the members of the "Blissful Society", the only one Jenna is familiar with is Miles Meyer, and she even has some instinctive fear, because this was once her manager and could decide her future.
She unconsciously touched the "bloodthirsty arrow" hidden in the secret bag, nodded solemnly and said:
"I'll pay attention."
Franka didn't say much, looked at the clock on the wall, entered her room, turned on the radio transceiver, and prepared to contact "007".
Not long after, she used the mechanical typewriter and the analytical engine to send a telegram:
"007', call '007'!
Twenty or thirty seconds later, a telegram was typed out on its own under the power of the machine:
"Hidden Blade, don't do this. I'm afraid. What's the matter?"
"This time the problem may be a bit big!" Franka threatened "007" by telling the truth, "Brother, before I tell you the specific situation, please help me collect some information first. I need to confirm: 1.
Is there any follow-up to the belief in the God of Disease that appeared on Pasteur Street and Evelyn Street in the Botanical Garden? Secondly, what problems are hidden deep underground in the old cemetery of St. Robles Church."
After a brief silence, a new telegram came in:
"I'm taking a rest tonight, taking a rest! Now I have to go back to work overtime again!
"You wait for me from two quarters to an hour.
After Franka replied "No problem", while chatting with other members of the "Telegram Group", she took out the diamond necklace she got from Beatrice Ancur and confirmed it in various ways.
Abilities and negative effects of extraordinary trinkets:
That diamond corresponds to five full desires:
“Greed, appetite, lust, desire for performance, desire for achievement….
"The number of times it can be used doesn't seem to be many. Each desire should not be used more than twice...
"After wearing it, I seem to be better at acting and putting on makeup...
“It’s just put in your pocket, it doesn’t come into direct contact with skin or flesh, it has no negative effects….
"After wearing it, I became more excited than normal, and all kinds of desires were significantly enhanced. If I meet an extraordinary person with similar abilities, I will be effectively restrained, and even suffer a big loss...
"Of these, the strongest desire is the desire for approval from others...
"Well, this thing cannot be used to deal with the Beyonders of the 'Mother Tree of Desire' path. Its weakness is the strength of those people.
"What should I call it? Seven Emotions and Six Perplexities? Well, the style of painting is not quite right. Forget it, let's just call it 'Beatrice's Necklace'. It's simple, easy and clear!"
"007"'s call back was faster than Franka expected. In less than two quarters of an hour, he gave the corresponding information:
"The official evil god belief information database shared by various forces shows that the messenger of the God of Disease has not been found. He seemed to have sensed the danger in advance and did not appear again.
"The old cemetery of St. Robles Church has a high level of confidentiality, and I can't check it yet.
The level of confidentiality is very high? Franka secretly hissed and informed "007" about the recent unusually quiet situation of various organizations that believe in evil gods.
Chaotic streets, Golden Rooster Hotel.
The reply from Ms. "Magician" came very slowly. Lumian waited for a full hour before receiving it:
"After the benefactor dies, the power returns to the mother body. It is a knowledge that can be inferred, but under normal circumstances, you cannot detect it.
"This time it's because you are carrying the 'torture' glove. Its material comes from the 'Tree of Shadows' and is closely related to the one who believes in the 'Blessed Society', that is, the mother body that bestows power. Therefore, in Bi
When the gift power on Tris returned and the connection was strengthened, the person indirectly noticed the existence of you and the 'Two Holy Cups' and brought about changes in the corpse, and the changes revealed the flow of the gift power.
"If you want to intercept these gifted powers and prevent them from returning, you need corresponding abilities or a unique environment. Sometimes the two are integrated. To put it simply, you need to advance to Sequence 4, become a demigod, or achieve this level.
Only with something can we hope to leave the remaining power of the gift and form an extraordinary item. Of course, this can also be done in certain underground environments, such as around the 'Fountain of the Samaritan Woman'. You are not required.
How high the sequence is.”
Seeing this, Lumian had a clear understanding of tonight's changes:
Different from killing members of the "Blessed Society" several times before, now he has "torture" gloves, which has brought about a different development.
If this glove is used, it will attract the attention of hidden beings. Although it is only carried this time, it is too closely related to the "Mother Tree of Desire" that Beatrice believes in, and it was created through the return of the power of the gift.
certain impact.
After roughly understanding what was going on and how to prevent it in the future, Lumian continued to read the reply from Ms. "Magician":
"We have noticed the abnormal situation in Trier and are also keeping an eye on one of the clues. However, it is still unknown when the harvest will be harvested. The only thing that can be determined is that it can take as long as half a year or as short as two or three months. It should be
There will be changes.
"What's under the ground corresponding to the Breeze Ballroom? I can't get close to it, so I can't give you an answer. I can only tell you that it's not just the pollution left by Blood Emperor Alistair Tudor.
"You don't have to worry too much. This kind of thing is not something you can handle. All you need to do is accumulate strength and wait for the opportunity.
Accumulate strength and wait for the opportunity... Lumian looked at the letter and silently repeated the last few words.
The next morning, after communicating with Franka and Jenna, he took all the funds and went straight to No. 11 Quanshui Street, Memorial Hall District.
"Boss, this is worth 30,000 gold and 30,000 Feirkin banknotes." Lumian smiled and placed the heavy small leather bag on Gardner Martin's desk.
He now has 1,000 gold left and 1,500 firkin, which is nominally funding.
Gardner Martin glanced at Lumian, opened the zipper of the small leather bag, and counted quickly. He did not ask Lumian how much activity funds were left. He opened the drawer with a smile and took out a package that seemed to have been prepared for a long time.
A piece of imitation parchment paper.
"You need to promise two things. One is to remember it on the spot and then burn this paper. The other is not to resell this conspirator's potion formula without my permission or the supervisor's permission." Gardner
.Martin did not ask Lumian to sign a commitment letter with fair effect. It was more like giving an order.
Lumian didn't care about these two points at all and answered without hesitation:
"no problem.
Gardner Martin nodded with satisfaction and handed the imitation parchment to Lumian.
After Lumian took it, he immediately started reading attentively:
“The Conspirator’s Potion Recipe:
"Main materials: compound eyes of hunting black spiders, brains of human lions;
"Supplementary materials: one venom gland from hunting a black spider, 80 ml of lion's blood, 10 grams of amber powder, and two white oak fruits."
After reading it several times and memorizing it completely, Lumian shook his right hand and let the red flames climb onto the imitation parchment.
Time passed slowly in unnatural silence. Unconsciously, the heat in Trier began to recede and the temperature gradually dropped.
One day in mid-September, Franka stood in front of the window of Apartment 601 and cursed Browns Sauron for the hundredth time.
She has passed the review of the Witch Sect and told Browns that she joined the Savoyard Party to get in touch with the "Iron-Blooded Cross". However, she did not expect that there would be an assessment period. When the assessment period expires, she can become an official member of the Witch Sect.
member.
Her current liaison, Bronze Soren, used this as an excuse to prevent her from attending the women's party at the Red House Cafe, which resulted in her having to scold Gardner Martin and his lover for more than a month.
Afterwards, Franka turned her head and glanced at Jenna, who was thinking about something, and sincerely expressed her appreciation for her companion's good luck.
The Witch Sect didn't realize that she was an Extraordinary of the "Assassin" path at all.
"What's wrong?" Franka asked.
Jenna replied rather distressedly:
"My 'Instigator' potion has been completely digested."
"This is a good thing!" Franka was pleasantly surprised.
Jian Na scratched her hair, sighed and said:
"I haven't paid you back the money I owe you, and I have to consider the formula and ingredients of the 'Witch' potion again. Ten, why do I feel like I'm getting poorer as I get promoted?"
