In the dim room, Alicia, who was dressed as a female knight, had some doubts in her dark gray eyes and repeated Rawls' question in a low voice.
Elder Christo has passed away, why are you asking questions about him?
Is there something wrong with the death of the elder?
Although the "arbitrator" path does not have the ability to increase IQ, any normal person can understand what is hidden behind this problem.
"Yes, a year ago."
Rawls did not emphasize that it was after the "Chaos Master" characteristic was destroyed, but just gave a general time period. Whether Christo had problems before or after had different meanings to him.
After discovering that Rawls specially sealed the room, almost cutting off the world, Alicia understood the importance of this issue and thought about it carefully for nearly a minute before speaking:
"During that time, I didn't have much contact with Elder Christo. He was guarding the family secret room in the Honakis Mountains. Most of the time, I communicated with Elder Laigat."
"What about before? Did he mention anything about the problems with his promotion ceremony that resulted in a shortened lifespan?"
Rawls remembered that when Christo passed away, Laigat once said that the relationship between a scroller like Alicia and Christo was not bad.
"No." Alicia shook her head after being silent for two seconds, and continued, "But this is not a secret among the family meeting members. In my memory, he does age faster than other demigods.
Faster.
"However, he has aged faster this year, faster than in the past thirty years."
Looking at Rawls who was thinking silently, Alicia pursed her lips tightly. Seeing that he hesitated to speak, she couldn't help but ask:
"Elder Christo..."
"I'm not sure, I just have suspicions."
Rawls interrupted her. Although he was 100% sure that something was wrong with Christo, he was not only thinking about Christo.
After all, if there are doubts about the cause of Christo's death, wouldn't Elder Laigat have any problems? Even if the problem is limited to these two elders, what about the Tamara family? This is the strongest force in Rawls' hands.
It is the guarantee for his subsequent rule in Loen.
"Then Elder Laijiat..."
Alicia suddenly froze and seemed to remember something. She took out the silver purse from her pocket and reached out to take out a brass mirror inlaid with many gems.
When he saw the brass mirror, Rawls immediately zoomed in a little. He noticed the faint feeling of calling on the brass mirror, which was very slight. If it were not so close, he might not be able to feel it.
Not to mention being placed in a "space pocket".
"Is it given to you by Lai Ghat?"
"Yes, there is something wrong with it?" Alicia nodded at first, but then realized something, "He told me that I am protecting Delina now, and I can take Delina away quickly when in danger."
Rawls reached out and took the handed brass mirror. He only felt that the call was a little stronger, but other than that, there were no other changes.
"Have you used it?"
"Um."
So it's not a matter of use? Is it that long-term carrying will have a certain impact? On the fetus in Delina's belly?
The "space pocket" cannot isolate the negative effects of the sealed object, and will still affect the bearer or the people around him. If the sealed object "Rotten Meteor" that Rawls obtained from Hvin Rambis is carried for a long time,
There is a chance of being noticed by the gaze cast from the stars and encountering pollution.
But so far, "Rotten Meteor" has not shown any negative effects. Or maybe it has, but it has no impact on Rawls.
After thinking about it, Rawls took out a light blue translucent hexagonal prism from his "space pocket". This is an "inquisitor" attribute, and it is the "law mage" that "conquered" Hagati Prairie.
"After the failure, he took a piece of loot at will. As for the demigod characteristics, he left it to the Rose School of thought so that they could better take the blame.
"Don't keep it around you for the time being. Keep it with this 'Interrogator' trait and observe it for a while." Since it may have an impact on the child in Delina's belly, this "Interrogator" trait should also be affected.
influential.
Rawls never doubted the influence of those in higher positions on those in lower positions. He himself could not help but be provocative when getting along with the "Red Angel" evil spirit, let alone beings of the same path.
Moreover, Trunsoest has accommodated the uniqueness of the "Judge" after all. With the performance of the evil spirit of the "Red Angel", after the "Brass Book of Trunsoest" is re-accommodated, this uniqueness should still be
Pointing at her. Although she may not be able to rely on uniqueness to delete the knowledge contained in the potion like Amon, there should be no problem in affecting the characteristics of this path that have been applied to some parts.
That's why Rawls chose to expel the "Chaos Master" trait from his body, even if that trait has been shattered.
Alicia nodded silently and took the "Interrogator" trait and the brass mirror.
"I remember that in addition to the 'Scale of Balance' in Tamara's hand, she also has the attribute of 'The Balancer'?"
"Yes."
"I know, let's do it."
Rawls' gray-blue boy's hole became much deeper, he unblocked the room and restored the light. He walked to the door, held the door handle, and walked along the corridor towards the end of the other side, where Delina is now
bedroom.
…
Backlund, Queens, inside the Hall family's luxurious villa.
Audrey had just put on her blue cloak and was about to take her golden retriever dog Susie, maid Anne and others to the "Loon Charity Bursary Fund" on Paisfield Street, when she saw her father, Earl Hall, walking outside the main entrance.
Come in.
"Dad, good morning, you didn't come home last night?" Audrey looked up and down a few times in confusion.
Since the assassination of Prince Govington, Backlund fell into an atmosphere of low panic until good news came from the southern continent. Under the command of General Arnold Rosent, the Feysac East Balam Army fell to Loen long ago.
In the traps arranged, more than 6,000 enemies were wiped out and nearly 3,000 were captured.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It can be said that this battle completely defeated Fusac's plot in East Balam, preventing Roen from losing support from the colonies.
The news of victory swept away the panic and worry of Backlund residents in the past. In recent days, Earl Hall has rarely been able to stay at home to accompany his family.
"Can you tell?" Earl Hall touched his beautiful mustache and asked with a smile.
Seeing that her father was in a good mood, Audrey turned her green eyes slightly and said with a slight smile:
"There is a strong smell of cigarettes on your coat, which means you haven't taken it off for a long time and it is clothing for going out."
Earl Hall took off his coat and handed it to the valet, while he chuckled and said:
"Yes, you are very observant. It seems that being busy at the Charity Student Fund has improved you to a great extent.
"I was at the Prime Minister's residence last night, waiting for news."
Having said this, Earl Hall sighed, and then said:
"After the victory of East Balam, our troops in Cold Winter County and Jianhai County once again repelled the Fusak attack. And with the coming of severe cold, we can finally get a chance to breathe like the countries in Central and South China."
Audrey blinked, showing her surprise appropriately. She knew very well about these situations that Mr. "Emperor" would talk about relevant things in the Tarot meeting.
Earl Hall suddenly smiled:
"I understand what you are wondering about. What the newspaper said is just what we want the people to know. In fact, the situation has not been very good... Anyway, we finally persisted. This winter will be the turning point of this war."
In fact, I know... the number of dead, missing, and injured may have been concealed, but it also illustrates a lot of problems... Moreover, cold winter is not necessarily a good thing. Fusac's "Weather Warlock" is very good at taking advantage of similar situations.
...Audrey felt a sense of sadness in her heart. She quickly controlled her emotions and said with a smile:
"That's great. I hope peace can be restored soon."
Earl Hall was startled for a moment and then said:
"His Majesty the King plans to make a speech to the nation on Saturday to tell them that we will win.
"When the time comes, we will organize people in major cities and villages to go to squares and use the latest technology to let everyone hear it."
The latest technology... allowed people to gather in various squares to listen to the king's speech... Audrey suddenly thought of Mr. World's reminder and decided to inform him about this matter.
…
Looking at the letter in his hand and the bottle mixed with the blood of twenty-two extraordinary people, Rawls breathed a sigh of relief. Mr. "Fool" still didn't trust him very much, but fortunately there was Triss who wanted revenge at all costs.
The guy is here.
After writing down the symbols for opening the mausoleum and putting the bottle containing blood into the "space pocket", he glanced at Delina who was walking in the garden, nodded to Alicia who was hiding nearby, and disappeared.
On the same spot, he entered the spiritual world.
When he appeared in the real world again, he had arrived outside St. Samuel's Church in Backlund. He saw the busy clergy in the square and entered the church without attracting any attention.
Ten minutes later, Rawls walked out of the church and entered the spiritual world again, but this time it was deep in the Honakis Mountains and came to the former hermitage of the Tamara family.
He saw the strange and asymmetrical houses of the Tamara people, the pedestal in the distance, and the black hall sitting further away.
"Elder Laigat."
Hearing the sound, Laigat, who was wearing a hooded robe and a brown sweater, opened the door. When he saw Rawls, he said doubtfully:
"Rolls? Why are you here?"
"I have finished digesting the 'Chaos Hunter' potion, and the ceremony is almost ready." In fact, Rawls, who had not yet fully digested the 'Chaos Hunter' potion, walked up to Laigat in a few steps.
"So fast?" Laigat raised his long and lowered eyebrows, "I originally thought it would be good if you could finish digesting the potion next year."
Rawls smiled and replied:
"There's only one month left, isn't it next year?"
"That's right too."
Laigat extended his hand to invite him into his home and sat down together.
"You should know from Alicia that we have two 'balancer' characteristics, one is a pure characteristic without any mental pollution, and the other exists in the form of the sealed object 'Scale of Balance'.
"
Having said this, Laigat looked much more solemn and said in a deep voice:
"Normally, we should give you the pure characteristics, but the family meeting hopes to give you the 'Scale of Balance' to exchange for the 'Balancer' formula and the sealed artifacts and characteristics stored in the 'Scale of Balance'."
Then he explained the reason in detail. After the death of Elder Christo, the extraordinary characteristics left behind were enough for a "Law Mage" to complete the promotion. After exchanging the "Balancer" ceremony from Rawls, plus their
A preserved "balancer" characteristic without mental pollution. Given time, the Tamara family may give birth to an angel since the Fifth Era.
"Isn't this a bit troublesome?" Rawls frowned, "After I am promoted, wouldn't it be the same if I crush the characteristics and give them to you?"
"I just don't want to trouble you more. Tamara didn't pay much and doesn't want to get more." Laigat explained, stroking his beard.
The program has not been reduced, but whether Rawls crushes the characteristics for his own promotion or because the Tamara family crushes the characteristics, the latter naturally means that the Tamara family takes a little more advantage.
"Let's not say that this problem does not exist." Rawls' brows did not relax, but frowned even more tightly, "I have no way to smash the 'Scale of Balance' now! It is an angel-level seal after all.
Things..."
"Um?"
Laigat was stunned for a moment, then explained:
"At the beginning, we prayed for the power of the 'Uncertain Mist' to destroy the 'balancer' characteristic."
"But I can't do it now." Rawls shook his head simply.
"Then..." Laigat kept stroking his beard and shook his head helplessly, "Then I have to give you that pure characteristic. Come with me!"
He stood up, came to the door, and pointed diagonally behind the black hall.
"The family secret room is right there."
Behind him, Rawls' eyes added a touch of solemnity. His first plan attempt failed. Laigat did not insist on giving him a "balanced scale". In fact, he could not insist on it, which would only arouse suspicion.
In other words, there is also a problem with the pure "balancer" characteristic. Trunsoest blocked his two options for promotion. No matter which one he chooses, it is within the opponent's plan.
Unless he can find another "balancer" characteristic, or jump back to the original path again and become the "Duke of Entropy", but the characteristics are also needed.
The two of them walked in tandem, taking a dozen steps at a time, and soon came to a mountain wall. After Laigat used his spirituality to draw a symbol, he read out a word in the ancient Hermetic language:
"closure!"
The stone wall in front of me became much more unreal, and I could vaguely see the scene inside.
"Close" means "open", and "open" means "close", which is obviously a kind of disorder... Rawls's eyes twitched slightly, remembering that he had prayed before coming, so he followed.
