Mystery: Shadow of Order - Chapter 235
Above the gray fog, Klein sat at the head of the long bronze table, with his fingers crossed against his chin. From the divination just now, he could confirm that someone had followed him back to No. 15 Minsk Street on the way back. His inspiration was not deceiving. He, it was “Spiritual Vision” who deceived him.
Since he became a “diver”, “Spiritual Vision” has helped him a lot when he played. Even after he took the potion for the first time, he could see the traces of old Neil being contaminated by the “Hidden Sage”, but he lacked relevant knowledge. will be fooled. In addition, “Ling Vision” has not made any mistakes.
In fact, I should have thought that divination is not omnipotent, and spiritual vision is naturally not omnipotent!
Klein tapped the table with his index finger. Judging from the state of the woman who was following him, he looked more like a ghost or a ghost, but when he was still a Nighthawk, he patrolled Raphael’s cemetery and dealt with grievances. Evil spirits and the like. The biggest feature of these creatures is that they have no intelligence, and they rely on their own obsessions to maintain their own existence.
The woman who followed him did not have such a problem. When Klein tried coin divination, there was a slight change in her face, so she was either a legendary and powerful spiritual creature or a Beyonder, the possibility of the latter bigger. But what way did she do it?
The “Death God” pathway doesn’t seem to have such an ability, and it’s not simply invisible like the “Witch”, and she can interfere with my divination, is it a follow-up sequence of “The Diviner”? Klein has only been a Beyonder for a few months. Although he has undergone systematic study, he still lacks sufficient understanding of most pathways due to his own sequence.
She shook her head slowly. It doesn’t matter what the path of the Beyonder is for the time being. The purpose of her tracking me was to find Ian, and when she found Ian, she didn’t appear directly, but instead communicated with him a few words. So, Ian asked me to go to the Brave Bar and take a message to Caspers, mainly to get in touch with the ghostly Beyonder.
Klein scratched his forehead. He was wondering whether it was his own problem or whether there were too many Beyonders in Backlund. He was involved in an incident involving Beyonders just a few days after he came to Backlund. And judging from the fact that the Beyonder could interfere with his divination without any action, at least it was a Sequence 6 or even a Sequence 5 Beyonder.
Behind a group of only seven or eight and a half children, there is a Beyonder who is stronger than him, which makes Klein a little depressed. He originally wanted to transform Ian and others into Sherlock Moriarty’s Minsk Street. What about the squad!
Well, the Bridge District… There are so many things involved in the Bridge District! The gas explosion, the beasts in the sewer pipes in the bridge area, and the manuscript of Hermerthein’s third-generation difference engine, plus the Beyonder at the Brave Bar… Recently, I have to stay away from the bridge area, which involves the task of the bridge area. Can’t take it either!
However, Ian’s commission seems to be his first official mission. Am I looking for another way out?
Although Klein still has 927 pounds, 12 soles, and 8p coins in his hand, he has lost his official job now. The income of an industry like detective is not fixed, and the expenses of Beyonders are far higher than those of ordinary people. Find a way to make a fortune. His path is crucial to him now.
If I remember correctly, I saw a small advertisement in the newspaper three days ago. A new type of transportation needs investment. I will go to see if there is any worth of investment tomorrow morning, and by the way, I will buy some bread to bring to No. 58. group of children.
After a while, I’d better take a nap. He was woken up in the middle of the night, got up very early again, and continued to sleep.
…
“Ah~ha”
In the luxurious room of the hotel by the Hoy River, the yawning Rawls opened the curtains. Although Tingen in September was a little cool, the sun that appeared every day always gave people a good impression, especially him. A person who has lived in Backlund for such a long time.
At the end of yesterday’s banquet, Merino, the superintendent of the Lincoln School of Law, officially announced the partnership with Adrian. Although the news about the cooperation has been widely rumored before, and the guests present were more or less prepared, after Merino announced it, it still caused extensive discussion.
After the announcement, as the two partners of cooperation, Merino and Rawls left the banquet directly and began to discuss specific plans. Originally, this should have been the work before the announcement, but the Lincoln Law School represented by Merino obviously wanted to reach a cooperation before all parties put pressure on it, so that not only enough time to wait for the reaction of all parties, but also to let Adrian affairs. There is no room for retreat.
As the boss of Adrian’s firm, Rawls, Merino and others discussed it very late, and carefully discussed each cooperation clause. They were all barristers, and they were naturally not lacking in relevant abilities. In this discussion, Rawls did not use “bribery” to favor the terms in his favor, which is not in the long-term interest.
The discussion continued until midnight, and was eventually terminated because the ordinary barristers of Lincoln College were exhausted. If there were no accidents, such discussions would continue for a few days. After all, it was a cooperation that determined the future for both parties.
Rawls also had someone send a telegram to Uncle Edmund Robert, who was still in charge of the firm in Backlund, and asked him to send several senior solicitors, who were the main force in formulating the cooperation agreement.
After being busy for most of the night, Rawls didn’t get up until close to noon, ordered a lunch, and prepared to enjoy a rare leisure time, but it was obviously unrealistic for him, who had become a top news figure in the Loen lawyer circle.
On the small table on the balcony were not only his white bread, pan-fried steak with black pepper sauce, milk, and strawberry cake, but also dozens of invitation cards, more than when he officially came to Tingen. The waiter who delivered the lunch told him that because of Rawls, the hotel room was already in short supply, and even the nearby hotels were full.
However, I can only listen to the waiter’s words. Now is the opening time of the opposite university town, which is the peak period. There are many guests staying, but he has only attracted some people.
The steak was gently cut with a table knife. The tender red beef was dipped in a little sticky black pepper juice and sent into the mouth. After drinking the warm milk, Rawls flipped through the business card invitations on the side. A figure was outlined, wearing a light blue long skirt with pleated ruffles, wearing a gauze hat of the same color, and looking at the nearby Hoy River with gray eyes.
“You’re back, do you want one?”
Rawls didn’t stop flipping through it. From time to time, he picked out an invitation or business card. These were things he had to face and couldn’t refuse. As for the arrival of Alysia, he sensed it at the banquet last night, but until he returned to the hotel to rest, Alysia did not take the initiative to appear, and Rawls could not take the initiative to clarify this point.
“Need not.”
“Well, wait for me for a while.” Then there was a long silence, only the sound of Rawls chewing and flipping through business cards and invitations.
“Um?”
Rawls pulled out an invitation and invited him to participate in the art exhibition at the Art Museum of the University of Tingen in the day after tomorrow. The main exhibition is a series of landscape paintings by Stephen Mossos about the Port of Enmatt. Such an invitation was one that Rawls could have given up, but he took it out and put it aside.
After everything was over, Rawls wiped his mouth with a napkin and said while sorting out the invitations in his hand:
“I have the stomach bag of the spirit eater, and the blood of the deep-sea marlin should be available next week.”
Alysia was stunned for a moment, her eyes moved from the Hoy River to Rawls, and she said with some doubts:
“A full moon on Sunday?”
Full moon? Full moon babbling?
Looking at Alysia on the opposite side, Rawls paused and nodded. Forsi used the bracelet earlier than before, and experienced two more full moon babblings. If Audrey hadn’t given her the Fool’s honorable name, I’m afraid it would be difficult for her to survive this full moon babbling.
“Can I get it ahead of time?” Emotional fluctuations appeared on Alysia’s wax figure-like face, and a bit of anxiety was added to her dark gray eyes. She returned to West Velas County this time, and it took her a long time to convince the clan to forget about the full moon babbling, and there were no related materials and corresponding magical items in the clan.
Rawls frowned. At this week’s Tarot meeting, Alger said that he would wait until next week’s pirate party, and he only said that the probability of occurrence was high, and there was no guarantee that it would definitely appear. But he still nodded and said:
“I’ll try to ask, but I can’t guarantee it.” He only needs to trouble Mister Fool, and the rest won’t be too much trouble.
“Okay.”
Alysia was silent for a while, then spoke again:
“Elder Legat won’t force you to take you away for the time being, but most of the people in the clan still hope that you can return to your original station and try to call his honorable name there. If successful, the Tamara clan will I can give you a magical item, according to what you said, it should be a Grade 1 Sealed Artifact, or an Extraordinary characteristic of a ‘Law Mage’.”
If successful, can I come back?
Rawls didn’t ask this question, and looked at Tingen University opposite:
“Elder Legate?”
“He is one of the two ‘Wild Hunters’ in the family, the other being Elder Christopher.”
Two “crazy hunters”… Rawls’ mouth gradually formed a line, Tamara, as the angel family being hunted down in the Fourth Epoch, even had two Sequence 3 saints, plus those sealed items in his hands , even in a secret organization is a relatively powerful existence.
In the fifth era when gods can only descend, if there is a Sequence 1 or a Sequence 2, then the Tamara family has a certain chance to appear in the world normally.
“Didn’t they try to be angels?”
Alysia was silent for a while, but still answered Rawls’s question:
“The Sequence 2 ‘Balancer’ ritual needs to complete a balance that affects more than 100,000 people, whether it is an Extraordinary or an ordinary person. The more people affected, the higher the sequence, and the longer the time, the better the effect will be. Even in the Fourth Epoch, there are very few Beyonders who can complete this ritual.”
This ceremony is so abstract… Rawls frowned subconsciously. Although he may not be able to jump the path, this is the adjacent path of “lawyer”. As the two paths of order, if you want to be promoted after Sequence 4, it is inevitable To get in touch with this.
He had some guesses about the ceremony of the “Balancer”. Whether it was the balance of the three major churches in several areas of Backlund, or the Sodrak Palace, the royal palace of the Loen Kingdom, they all vaguely revealed the meaning of balance. Sodrak means “balance” in Old Feysac.
But this ceremony is really a bit abstract, balanced? What is the balance? Is it a political balance or an orderly balance?
“However, we can’t confirm whether this ceremony is correct or not, but there are similar records from the classics.” After saying this, Alysia, who lacked enough expression, also had difficulty maintaining that calm expression, and looked a little embarrassedly at it. To the students rowing on the river.
“You can’t confirm it either?”
Rawls’ mouth was slightly open, a little unbelievable, what does it mean to be unconfirmed! Can this kind of thing be said with uncertainty?
“We have lost the potion formula of the ‘Balancer’~www.mtlnovel.com~ We only retain the characteristics of a ‘Balancer’ that has been smashed and reunited, but lacks rituals. After reading through the books in the family, from one Some descriptions of the ritual were found in the diary of the ancestor of the ‘Balancer’, and the specific ritual can be recorded in detail.”
Alysia also seemed to know that something was wrong, and her eyes stayed on the other side:
“In that diary there is also a description of the ‘Lawyer’ pathway Sequence 3 ‘Frenzy Mage’. You need to get your orders to be obeyed among 10,000 people, and punish those who violate the order. The ancestor put these two descriptions of these rituals are put together.”
Rawls, who was only a little worried about his ritual, was completely cold. Although the Sequence 3 ‘Frenzy Mage’ was better than the ‘Balancer’ ritual, it definitely took a long time to prepare. Ten thousand People are not a small number.
He thought of his titular boss, the owner of the “Dark Emperor”, “King of the Five Seas” Nast Solomon, who was the only “Frenzy Mage” he knew. As the pirate king, he made a rule or order, according to himself he was a descendant of the Solomon Empire, abide by the virtue of not killing prisoners, only looting property, and let the pirates abide by this code.
Due to his great strength and influence, only a few people were unwilling to obey his orders, such as the owner of the “Tree of Flesh”, “Admiral of Blood” Senor.
The number of pirates on the sea must be more than 10,000, not to mention that except for pirates, almost all people living on the coast are more or less affected by the “king of the five seas”.
However, although the Tamara family is powerful, they also suffered great losses in the process of being hunted down. You must know that the Abraham family still retains the “Planeswalker” potion formula.
