Chapter 52 The Monitor (asking for double monthly tickets at the end of the month)
Listening to the orders of the "Governor of the Sea" is more important than respecting the church... The Church of the "Mother Goddess of the Earth" actually doesn't care about it... Lumian did not ask further questions, nodded slightly and said: "I can accept this commission.
, and there is no need for any compensation, but I have a request."
"What do you want?" Rubio asked cautiously.
Lumian smiled: "I came here to see the sea prayer ceremony, but I heard that only a handful of people can participate and watch the two most important links. I want to have such an opportunity."
Rubio fell silent and did not answer for a long time.
Seeing this, Georgia could not restrain her curiosity and asked her husband in Plateau language what he had just communicated and the issues that embarrassed him.
Lugano took the opportunity to get close to Lumian and relayed the key points of what the couple were discussing.
Lumian's eyebrows moved slightly when he heard that they were seriously considering whether to pretend to be sailors and board the special sacrificial ship.
Rubio Paco really wants to promise me?
I just set an outrageous price first to see if I could squeeze out some details of the sea praying ceremony. I never thought that this seemingly simple task would force my employer to actually participate in the last two steps of the sea praying ceremony!
That is a secret that the fishing guild has kept for thousands of years, and it is also the source of their power and prestige!
As his thoughts flashed, Lumian deeply suspected that the commission to send Mrs. Marta to Milo Village to meet the current "Governor of the Sea" contained very high risks. It could not be completed by just finding an extraordinary person. Therefore,
Rubio Paco did not want to give up on the great adventurer Louis Bay who had proven himself.
"But where is the danger? This is Santa Port, not the islands on the sea, nor the remote towns in the southern continent. How can any extraordinary person dare to attack me in the street during the day, without fear of being caught by the battle nuns and used as fertilizer for the land?
?We must not underestimate the power of a righteous church!
"Unless I have the special ability of 'Loki', who can kill me in a busy street without anyone noticing, or a saint with divinity personally takes action in order to kill me in the 'Earth Mother Goddess'"
The battle will be resolved before the church reacts... But it's not an exaggeration, it's something like this..." As Lumian thought about it, Rubio and Giorgia discussed the result.
The former said to Lumian: "I can't let you participate in the last two parts of the sea prayer ceremony. This is a desecration of the sea. The relevant people and families will be expelled from Santa Port."
"But I can let you hide in Milo Village in advance and watch the ancient performances in the village during the vigil ceremony."
In other words, you cannot directly witness the vigil ceremony, but you can enjoy the folk performances that accompany the vigil ceremony? Did the "Salted Egg Superman", "Bard" and "Crazy Girl" also approach the core of the sea prayer ceremony in this way?
, completed the most critical part of the prank? Seeing that Rubio had made the greatest concession, Lumian no longer "insisted" and said with a smile: "Deal."
Without waiting for the other party's response, he "kindly" suggested: "Shall we send Mrs. Marta to Milo Village today? You can't delay things like illness. Treat her as soon as possible."
Rubio hesitated and then said after a few seconds: "My mother is already asleep. She always sleeps a lot recently. Forcibly waking her up will affect her body and spirit. How about tomorrow morning?"
Do you need to make some preparations in advance? Lumian nodded thoughtfully: "No problem."
He glanced at Lugano next to him and thought:
"Mr. Rubio, my translator is actually a very good doctor. Moreover, he does not believe in the 'Earth Mother Goddess' and does not belong to any church. If he treats your mother, there should be no need to consult the 'Governor of the Sea' in advance. 's permission."
Lumian emphasized the word physician.
Rubio Paco barely thought about it and shook his head directly: "We trust the doctors of the church more."
"My mother is my most important relative, and I don't want her to take any unnecessary risks."
His hidden meaning is that I am not sure about your medical skills as a translator, and it is impossible to use the grandmother of the Paco family as a test subject.
Lumian himself is actually looking forward to sending Mrs. Marta to Milo Village, because it means that he may meet the current "Governor of the Sea" and have the opportunity to understand some things. He just proposed that Lugano treat that person. The old grandmother was just testing Rubio.
The result of the temptation is that there are still many secrets in this matter!
After agreeing to escort Mrs. Marta and her maid to see the "Governor of the Sea" at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, Lumian took Ludwig and Lugano out of the main house at No. 21 Santa Lana Street. Georgia took them all the way to the door.
Lumian said casually: "Does the Governor of the Sea have to live in Milo Village?"
Giorgia, who was translated by Lugano, nodded lightly and said: "The Governor of the Sea must live in the building where the vigil ceremony is held every night. He can move freely during the day, but he cannot leave Santa Port."
Which building is the vigil ceremony held in? The essence of the vigil ceremony is that the quasi-"Governor of the Sea" enters the mansion, replaces the former "Governor of the Sea", and waits to accept the official appointment of the "Sea" the next day? Lumian combines his own occultism Knowledge begins with speculation.
He smiled and asked: "What are the benefits of becoming the 'Governor of the Sea'?
After listening to the translation, Georgia was silent for a few seconds and said: "In the eyes of fishery-related people and many maritime merchants, that is the real governor."
She didn't answer Lumian's question directly, but just gave some hints.
Lumian nodded slightly, without asking any more questions, and led Ludwig and Lugano out of the iron gate.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue the exciting content! After walking a few steps along the green avenue of the woods, he suddenly raised his head and looked to the side.
There stood a myna with gray feathers on the branch.
Lumian withdrew his gaze and continued to move forward until he boarded a taxi parked on the side of the road.
After a while, the myna flapped its wings and flew up. After circling a few times, it circled to a house two streets away and flew into the open window.
It landed on the forearm of a middle-aged man and said in a smooth plateau dialect: "Louis Bay is at Paco's house again!"
"Stayed for nearly two minutes!"
The middle-aged man's clothes are dusty, his appearance is ordinary, his brown hair is messy, he looks like a farmer in the suburbs.
After feeding the starling a few grains of homemade rice-like food, he said, "Go and observe again to see if Rubio Paco and Giorgia will go out today."
When the myna flew out of the window, the middle-aged man let out a breath and turned around.
Suddenly, his eyes froze and he saw a person sitting on the only armchair!
The man had black hair and green eyes, and was wearing a white shirt, a black vest, dark trousers, and a golden straw hat.
Louis Bay!
The great adventurer Louis Bay!
The middle-aged man's back was slightly arched, and his feet were slightly apart to the sides, but he made no other movements.
Lumian leaned back in his chair and chatted in Intis as if he came in after being invited:
"What do you have your bird watching?"
The middle-aged man was silent for a moment, and then spoke Intis in a rather awkward way: "Look at who comes in and out of Paco's house, and look at anything strange there."
"That's very honest." Lumian nodded in approval, "Who asked you to do it?"
He was glad that the other party knew a little bit of Intis, otherwise he would have had to rely on key words to communicate or capture it and ask Lugano to translate it.
"Juan Oro." The middle-aged man replied without hesitation.
Juan Oro... President of the Fisheries Guild and former head of Milo Village? Lumian smiled and said, "You are so frank."
The middle-aged man forced a smile and said: "I don't think I am better than the 'Devil Wizard' and can defeat you."
"Yes, people who can understand the situation and themselves can live longer." Lumian raised his right foot to his left leg, "Why does Juan Oro monitor Paco's house?"
"I don't know, and there's no need to know. I just need to pass on what I see and I'll be rewarded." The middle-aged man looked sincere.
Lumian stared at him for a few seconds and said, "Did you send that little monster last night?"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and said, "What a little monster?"
"What happened last night?"
Lumian chuckled and stood up without explaining.
"What's your name?" he asked as he walked towards the door.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment before answering truthfully: "Sanches."
Lumian opened the door, walked out, and disappeared from Sanches' eyes.
After returning to the Solo Hotel, Lumian saw a letter folded into squares on the desk in the master bedroom.
He unfolded it skillfully, and as expected saw the handwriting of Ms. Magician: "You can tell the Two of Cups those things, but don't go into too much detail."
"I didn't explain the sounds you heard and the fragments of civilization you saw before because the level is still too high for you. You just need to remember that in ancient ruins like the Fourth Age Ter, don't mess around. Listen and read randomly, and also, remind your 'Wizard' friends, it's okay to listen to the indoctrination of the 'Hidden Sage' occasionally, but don't really believe in him, his current state is also very wrong."
After Lumian burned the paper, he thought about it and decided to "teleport" it directly back to Tel and tell Franka face to face, so as to avoid any accident and not being able to rescue him in time.
Tel, Memorial Parish District, Orosei Street 9, Apartment 702.
When Lumian's figure was outlined, Franka and Janna were looking through a pile of ancient materials collected from unknown sources.
"Hey, won't you teleport outside the door and knock on it? It's scary to appear suddenly like this!" Franka almost tightened the invisible "spider thread" that had been placed in the room for a long time.
Lumian laughed and said: "With the inspiration of 'Witch', what is the difference between 'teleporting' me outside the door and 'teleporting' me to the living room?"
"Why did you come back so suddenly?" Franka paused and asked, "Ms. Magician, did you say you could tell me that matter?"
"What's going on?" Jenna asked with a confused look on her face.
She stood up and made a gesture of avoidance.
"Yes." Lumian responded to Franka's question, but did not stop Jenna from leaving.
When Franka saw this, she didn't either.
After Jenna entered her bedroom, Lumian said to Franka: "When they were exchanging dreams in the wilderness, I thought of the sounds I heard and the pictures I saw in Terne in the Fourth Age. That and' Celestial Master' related!"
