Examination of the Imperial Examination - Chapter 54
Above the gray fog, inside the grand palace, the long bronze table is mottled and ancient.
The crimson in front of him dissipated, and Alvin found that he was still wearing the Confucian uniform and sitting in the same position as last time. Does the “Origin Castle” have an archive function?
Then I heard the sound of “The Fool” knocking on the table top.
“Congratulations, Miss Justice, you are a Beyonder.”
At this time, Audrey, who was across from the long table, smiled and said:
“Thank you, thank you Mr. Fool, thank you Mr. Hanged Man.”
“Faster than I thought.” Alger Wilson said calmly.
Alvin just turned his head and glanced at it, but didn’t say anything, because he knew that the other party would become an Beyonder, and by the way, she also added her dog.
At this time, Alvin looked towards the opposite side, looked at Audrey for the high-back chair, and frowned. The original book mentioned that the back of the seat would display the corresponding sequence of symbols, how could he not see it.
Could it be the privilege of the owner of the Origin Castle? Alvin couldn’t help but glanced at the top of the long table.
He didn’t know that Klein, who was at the top of the long table, was also watching him ponder.
“Justice” and “The Hanged Man”, the backs of the chairs behind them are the symbols of “Dragon” and “Storm” respectively.
Although he couldn’t see the symbols behind him, he was 100% sure that there were.
Why is there only a bright white light behind my “compatriot” who can’t see anything clearly, and there is no symbol on the back of the chair.
It seems that this “companion” of my own has a lot of secrets.
“Mr. Hanged Man wears a robe, has blue hair, and has no extra body movements. He seems to be very cautious.”
“Mr. Strength, wearing a long robe with wide sleeves, long black hair, and strange hairstyle, obviously not belonging to the attire of the countries of the Northern Continent, he is very keen on others.”
During this short period of time, Audrey entered the “audience” state and carefully examined the other two members of the Tarot Club.
Klein didn’t continue the topic, he said with a smile:
“Ma’am, sir, have you found Roselle’s diary?”
Hearing “The Fool”‘s question, Audrey didn’t answer the first time as before, but looked at “The Hanged Man” and “He Power” with a scrutiny with her crystal clear eyes.
The Hanged Man unconsciously restrained his body movements, and after a few seconds of silence, he said:
“I found two pages of Emperor Roselle’s diary and memorized their contents.”
“I have a page.” Audrey, whose eyes were separated by the gray fog, replied in a bystander-like tone.
Seeing “The Hanged Man” and “The Fool” trying their best not to move their limbs, Alvin couldn’t help blinking his eyes.
He also put his hand on the table back under the long table, and said, “I have two pages.”
“Mr. Strength seems a little hesitant, is it because he didn’t remember the contents of the diary? It’s not quite like that. Mr. “The Hanged Man” gave a lot of basic knowledge at the last meeting, and he can easily write it down here. , um… it could also be that he was thinking, what could be exchanged for the diary, or something else?”
Audrey heard that “Power” had also collected the diary, and couldn’t help but glanced over, she was a little curious. She clearly remembered that at the last meeting, Mr. Fool said that Mr. Power, who knew how to act, was the exception.
“The Hanged Man” looked to the side with flickering eyes, and could probably guess in his heart what “Power” wanted to do.
“Does he want to exchange something in “The Fool”, Mr. Or, is he trying to be as careful as I am?”
“I’m going, he won’t want to exchange anything.”
Klein, who was at the top of the long table, felt a little guilty.
From the above performance observation, this “folk” seems to know a lot, so he is definitely not easy to fool. You must know that he is just a rookie who has just stepped into the mysterious field. If he can’t answer, his image of “The Fool” will collapse. .
Originally, I just wanted to lick the wool of “Justice” and “The Hanged Man”, but something unexpected happened.
“God bless, I hope this 5-page diary will have a good harvest and allow me to solve the current predicament.”
“Very good.” Klein didn’t let his joy and anxiety infect his voice.
As his voice fell, a yellow-brown parchment and a dark red pen appeared in front of the three of them.
Alvin picked up the pen and began to recall the diary in his mind, and gave urgently expressed emotions.
Silently, lines and lines of text were added to the yellow-brown parchment, neat and tidy.
In less than a minute, all the rubbings were made.
“This is simply a magic version of the printer.”
Alvin put down the pen in his hand and looked at the words “Justice” and “The Hanged Man” who were still trying to print the words in their minds.
“Writing so fast, “Power” really tried to decipher the diary. Although the simplified script is obviously different from the ancient script, it belongs to the same script system after all, so it shouldn’t be difficult for the other party.”
Klein’s eyes flickered when he saw the “companion” quickly put down his pen. Fortunately, the other party should not reveal this knowledge.
After the two of them put down their pens, Alvin watched the paper on the table disappear and suddenly appeared in Klein’s hands.
“Well, it’s very bluffing, and the special effects are perfect.”
“Except for magical items, I don’t seem to have anything at present. For magical items, it seems that “The Hanged Man” has a channel with me. The old fox of “The Hanged Man” earns too much price difference. Buy it again!”
While Klein was reading the diary, Alvin was bored and distracted, and began to think about what he needed to trade in the next trading session.
He waited quietly with a rather relaxed expression, not sitting upright like the other two.
After a few minutes, Klein let the diary in his hand disappear.
He learned from this 5-page diary that there are many secrets. For example, Emperor Roselle went on a long sea voyage and found a strange island. The emperor’s companion Green was also polluted. The key to solving the hidden dangers of potions is to have a new understanding of the integrity of the emperor.
Klein looked up at Justice, The Hanged Man, and Strength, and said with a slight smile:
“Sorry, I was fascinated by it.”
Audrey calmed the envy in her heart and smiled lightly:
“I can understand. I look forward to the day when I can exchange the contents of Emperor Roselle’s diary from you.”
“That’s a price to pay.” Klein glanced at Justice with a smile, swept over the silent “The Hanged Man”, and finally put his eyes on “Power” for a while.
“Haha! Scare me!”
Alvin, who is very sensitive to his eyes, immediately sensed Klein’s meaning, and rolled his eyes in his mind.
Klein hesitated for a while, but he still took the initiative to ask the question. Although he pretended that nothing happened and read the two pages of the diary, no one would question him, but it did not fit his image as the boss of a mysterious organization.
“I recently took a fancy to a magical item, and I’m still short of 2,000 gold pounds.”
As Alvin said that, he raised his head and glanced at the three people who were stunned. He quickly changed his tune and continued.
“Sorry, Mr. Fool, what I want to say is, can I make a choice after knowing the result of the last meeting and asking your favored person to help fortune-telling?”
Above the gray fog, Klein suddenly froze when he heard that “Fellow” actually offered 2,000 gold pounds.
“It’s too cruel, I only earned you 20 pounds.”
Thinking that he hasn’t turned regular yet, and now his weekly salary is only 3 pounds, he almost couldn’t help kicking his “compatriot” out of this gray fog space, directly blocking it, and then never pulling it in.
Later, when he heard that the other party suddenly changed his words, he suppressed his urge abruptly, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Now that he was clearly in a spiritual state, he felt as if a layer of cold sweat had formed on his forehead.
Audrey across the table was also shocked by the words of “power” and quit the audience state. Later, when she heard that Mr. “power” changed his words, she smiled and nodded and said:
“Is that right? How can a strong person who thinks about Mr. Fool withdraw money? This is disrespect to Mr. Fool”
“Well, Audrey, you have to remember this in the future.”
The “hanged man” on the side frowned. He believed that this kind of transaction should be exchanged for knowledge to maximize the benefits. After all, money can be obtained from many places, and knowledge is not necessarily.
