Mystery: Shadow of Order - Chapter 254
Rawls’ brown eyes looked at the familiar room in front of him through the lowered curtain. Cold sweat rolled down his face. The bed under him had been soaked with sweat, forming a vague human shape. together.
He let out a long sigh of relief, stretched out his hand to wipe the cold sweat at will, and felt a greasy feeling all over his body, which was extremely uncomfortable. He lifted the thin blanket covering his body, pushed aside the hanging curtains, got out of bed and went to the window to open it.
The gloomy sky filled with lead clouds. Although the October wind in Backlund did not whistle, it was faintly chilling. It blew into the bedroom along the open window, pierced into the skin along the loose nightgown, and let it out. The sweaty Rawls shuddered, and goosebumps followed.
He looked at the wall clock on one side of the wall, and it was already pointed to one ten. Rawls remembered that he went to sleep at twelve, which means that he slept for at least an hour. But the time he was awake in the dream was so short that he and Will Auceptin didn’t chat a few words, and he didn’t even finish talking about anything specific, only half of it.
If Will Auceptin hadn’t noticed it in advance and told him to go to the fat pharmacist Darkwill first, then this dreaming would have no effect. Unless Ellen meets him again, it’s unlikely to have another dream without the medium.
“Anyway, I have to find Will Auceptin first, or I don’t even know what to do.” Rawls tightened the nightgown on his body, the greasy feeling on his body made him very uncomfortable, “First Take a shower and then talk.”
…
In the fluttering water vapor, Rawls was lying in a circular bathtub that could accommodate three or four people, and the water at the appropriate temperature embraced his body, which relaxed his somewhat tired nerves from the sudden awakening.
Will Auceptin is the “Snake of Destiny” of Sequence 1. It is not surprising that he knows that I am going to Oravi, and that the purpose of my trip is also normal… He thinks that I can help him to do something, he should It involves the School of Life. After all, although he restarts, he still has the ability to briefly restore to Sequence 1.
In Backlund again, under the eyes of the goddess who holds secret authority, Ourorius probably wouldn’t dare to come here, but not necessarily, who let him grow up beside Zhenzao, the possibility of being affected is still very big.
Since Will Auceptin chose Backlund, in addition to Klein’s reasons, he may also have the acquiescence of the goddess. After all, he is a competitor of Ourorius, and the goddess must not let go of those who can weaken the opponent. Chance……
So how did Will get involved with the goddess? Moreover, Ourorius, as the angel of fate among the eight kings of angels of the ancient sun god, holds two Sequence 1 characteristics, so how did Will become Sequence 1 and even gain uniqueness under his attention?
He can recognize that it is Pallez with the help of the old grandfather living in Leonard’s body with one shot, and he has become a Sequence 1 existence at least in the fourth era. It seems that the Elf King has a subordinate **** who is the “God of Luck”, which is very likely to be an identity of Will…
The relaxation after exhaustion made Rawls’s thoughts very divergent, and after thinking about a lot of possibilities, he refocused on the cooperation with Will.
The School of Life as a whole is a very loose organization, similar to the current situation of the Abraham family, or even looser. It’s just a small family based on blood relationship, and a small sect based on the relationship of master and apprentice.
Although Darkwell was due to problems within the organization, judging from his “wandering” experience, it is typical of sheep-herding education. Now because Will, the speaker of the Destiny Council, has disappeared, the siege of Ourorius, and the intrusion of the Rose School, the School of Life has fallen into crisis.
Will Auceptin should not count on me to solve these, at most some small problems, such as using official power to attack the Rose School? You can ask Sharon about this, but she and Maric have been hiding in Backlund, and may not know the recent actions of the Rose School.
Moreover, Darkwell’s teacher Roy King was locked in the Governor’s Mansion in Byam, and the Destiny Congressman was hiding in Oravi, indicating that the School of Life should have a certain power in the Central Sunia sea area, but I don’t know. You can also use some power. That’s where the help Will Auceptin said should come from.
…
In the evening, the dark clouds that had been suppressed for a day finally began to release. The pattering rain fell from the sky, and a trace of cold air shrouded Backlund along the rain. The floating grayish-yellow mist was washed away by the rain. It is foreseeable for the next few days. The air will be much better.
But Rawls, who has already gone out, is a little uncomfortable. This kind of weather is really not suitable for going out. The cold air that accompanies the rain is not bad. With his physique without the influence of Extraordinary abilities, it is very difficult to get sick, but it is inevitable that his body will be wet by the rain, which makes him quite uncomfortable after taking a shower in the afternoon.
He raised the black umbrella in his hand so that Rawls could see the road in front of him and the buildings on both sides more clearly. Although this is the Chowood District, the road is paved with cement, and Backlund has a good sewer system, but the small puddles formed by the subsidence of the ground from time to time still require constant attention.
Because of a cold rain, there were not many pedestrians on Crystal Street, and with the umbrella cover, Rawls, who had just put on the mask, was not noticeable, and quietly looked at the apartments on both sides: … No. 42 , 44, 46.
He glanced at the rope on the door, stretched out his hand and pulled it, the bell rang, and after a while, there was still no movement. Rawls frowned, pulled the rope again, and a louder bell rang out. This time, there was finally a sound inside, and there was no movement after some heavy footsteps approached.
I know that the people inside are watching the outside world through the cat’s eyes, but they can only see the black umbrella… Rawls coughed lightly and lowered his voice:
“Darkwill, I have something to call you.”
After a while of silence, the door was opened to a small gap, and a figure came out. It was a man in his thirties or forties with short black hair and a round face, wearing a dress embroidered with all kinds of strange symbols. In a dark robe, he held a potion bottle in his hand, and the purple-red liquid swayed with his trembling arm.
“Who are you?”
Rawls put away the umbrella. He wore a black mask and looked at the trembling muscles on Darkwill’s face through two holes. His voice was low:
“Didn’t your teacher teach you the etiquette of hospitality?”
Darkwill relaxed slightly and said:
“If it’s an old man, he won’t even open the door for you.” After he finished speaking, he pushed the door open, still taking a few steps backwards, still holding the potion bottle tightly in his hand.
“Does the School of Life even teach this?” Rawls glanced at him, ignored the bottle of potion, walked inside, and put the umbrella on the umbrella stand.
Darkwill was startled, and the potion bottle in his hand almost fell. He glanced vigilantly at Rawls, who had already reached the living room, and then looked at the empty street outside, with a “bang” Close the door.
Holding the bottle of potion, he trotted a few steps to Rawls, who was already on the sofa, and roared:
“Can such things be said casually outside? You are not afraid of the ‘punisher’…”
Before he could finish speaking, he saw the man wearing a mask in front of him staring straight at him, which made him shudder, lowered his head and muttered:
“Okay, there’s no one outside now.” He wiped the potion bottle in his hand around his waist, put it in one of the hidden pockets, and sat opposite Rawls.
Seeing those dark blue eyes sizing him up and down, Rawls frowned slightly. Although Darkwill didn’t speak, he always felt that he was provoking himself.
“You should know what I came to find you about.”
“It’s never going to come with me to patronize the poor people’s business.” Darkwill lay back, leaning halfway against the back of the sofa, “The teacher sent me a letter saying that someone came back to find me. , I will take this person to a place and let him take one thing.”
The corners of Rawls’s mouth twitched, avoiding Darkwill’s terrible and extremely enjoyable lying position, and asked:
“When are we going?”
“Huh?” Darkwill’s upper body straightened slightly, and his eyes blinked, “Did I say to take you there? How do you prove that you are that person?”
Rawls gave him a sidelong glance, then got up and walked towards the door without saying much… Darkwill, who was just about to lie down, was stunned. Seeing that Rawls was really going, he hurriedly wanted to get up. The wide sofa, neglected to exercise, he fell directly, the sound of glass shattering sounded, and he lay rigidly on the ground.
Rawls, who heard the sound, looked back and saw Darkwill, who was lying on the ground, rising from purple smoke, as if he had fallen into a state of sluggishness after doing some kind of exercise he liked. After taking a few steps closer, he looked at him and found that his eyes could still move, so he sat far away from the smoke and sat on the other side.
After the smoke dissipated, after another three or four minutes, Darkwill gradually slowed down and climbed onto the sofa, but his tongue seemed to be a little stiff:
“Why are you”
“Why not… no…” He opened his mouth several times, but couldn’t say a complete sentence, Darkwill simply closed his mouth.
This is a potion he prepared with the juice extracted from various mandala plus hibiscus juice, and it is also an enhanced version that has been “domesticated”, which can make the person who inhales it into a state of rigidity. If it weren’t for the fact that he was a Sequence 9 “Pharmacist” and had a certain resistance to potions, he would have been in a coma for more than half an hour.
After a few more minutes, Darkwill felt that the effect of the potion had completely passed, and just as he was about to open his mouth to speak, he heard the man on the opposite side say something directly to shut him up.
“This potion works well, if it only works on your mouth, it’s even better!” As a “lawyer”, Rawls’ eloquence is definitely stronger than that of the “pharmacist” Darkwill.
Opening his mouth in vain, Darkwill’s voice was a little dry:
“Okay, I know you are that person, come with me.”
After he took out the broken potion bottle fragments in the secret bag, Darkwill took an umbrella and stood at the door, turning back:
“I hate……”
Rawls stretched out his right hand, clenched his fist, and the sound of crackling joints rang out, making him consciously shut his mouth.
Fist is also a good tool.
…
A few dozen minutes later, Darkwell, who had been silent all the way, brought Rawls to the southern area of the bridge across the Tussock River, and walked around for another half an hour before arriving in front of a small church.
This is the Church of Harvest, the Church of the Mother Earth is one of the few churches in the Loen Kingdom.
This golden church has a more striking spire and the holy emblem of life inscribed on the outer wall. It is a simple baby surrounded by symbols such as wheat ears, flowers and spring water, which is very different from the surrounding buildings.
It was already seven o’clock in the evening, and it had rained again before. There were no people in and out of this church with few believers, and the lights inside were quite dim.
“Are you sure you’re here?”
Rawls looked at Darkwill next to him, and found that he was also a little surprised and a little scared… It seems that he did not know that this location was pointing here, and although the Church of the Mother Earth was not an orthodox church in Loen , but it is still the Church of the Orthodox God, and it also has the “Pharmacist” pathway.
“I don’t know either. Although I know that there is a Harvest Church here, I have never been here. I found it here according to the address in the old man’s letter…”
Darkwill’s lips trembled a little, and he remembered the old man’s previous admonition to be careful of official organizations and real blood clans. He also gave many examples, what was permanently imprisoned in the ground, neither saw sunlight nor women, what became a researcher and used his body to test the harm of certain sealed objects, what was subjected to various experiments and mutated into a The remaining instinctive monster, what was sucked by the vampire, turned into a puppet.
But why did you bring me here, old man!
“Would you like ~www.mtlnovel.com~ you go in first?”
Rawls glanced at Darkwill and said in a low voice:
“Don’t worry, I know the bishop here, and he’s a good man.”
“Really?” Darkwill was stunned for a moment, with a pleasing smile on his face, “That’s even better, you can go in by yourself! Just come and get Roy King’s stuff.”
Without answering Darkwill’s words, Rawls put one hand on his shoulder and pushed him toward the church.
There was no one in the church hall, rows of seats were neatly arranged, the top was the huge holy emblem of life, and the two sides were lit candles.
Darkwill, who had already entered the hall, seemed to have no fear, and quietly looked at the interior of the church. It was the first time he had entered the Church of the Righteous God. Put it here, you must have come in!
Inside the wooden door on the side of the Sacred Emblem of Life, a tall man appeared there. He bent slightly so that he could pass through the narrow and low wooden door.
This man was wearing a bishop’s soft hat, his eyebrows were light and sparse, and there were obvious wrinkles around the corners of his eyes, cheeks, and mouth. With a kind smile on his face, he lowered his head and looked at Duck, who was about to hide behind Rawls. will.
