Chapter 159 "Gift" And "Sacrifice"

On the yellow-brown parchment, the slightly distorted and clawed Chinese wrote:

"On August 2, the water in this pool was deeper than I imagined. History is really a little girl who can be dressed up by others."

"On August 5th, I saw the strength of high-sequence powerhouses today. It was simply terrifying. They have undergone a qualitative change in a certain aspect, and they have become like gods. No wonder they have been described as 'half-gods, half-humans', um, I think the term 'mythical creature' might be more appropriate."

"On August 6th, it was a strange thing. Why did the Seven Great Churches have such a weird attitude towards potions? In the middle and low sequence stages, they not only gave the main ingredients to those who had been promoted, but also generously shared the formula and demonstrated the preparation. The process of the potion, if there is a corresponding ceremony, will inevitably be explained in detail, but in the high-sequence stage, they only provide finished potions."

"This is completely illogical. At the middle and low sequence stages where the main materials are relatively easy to collect and the production process is relatively simple, shouldn't the formula be kept secret and the potion directly prepared for the target? At the high sequence, since the main materials are difficult to obtain, shouldn't they be shared? Formula, let the members who are expected to be promoted take the initiative to find it?"

"There must be a secret hidden in it that I don't know yet."

"On August 9th, what happened in the past two days made me feel bad. The industrial revolution I started with my own hands, and the era of steam and machinery that I personally forged, will become a hotbed for the birth of evil gods?"

What's the meaning? A breeding ground for the birth of evil gods? Klein frowned slightly, and gently tapped the edge of the ancient long table with his index finger.

Mister Fool encountered a problem? The things that could embarrass him must involve a very high level... Audrey looked at the leader shrouded in thick gray mist, and deciphered some of his current state from the other party's body language.

Klein, who was indeed puzzled by high-level questions, thought for a while, but didn't get an answer, and began to consider the possibility of using divination to seek enlightenment:

Well, it's impossible to divination something substantial with just such a simple and simple sentence, and I'm not a prophet... directly divination "the hotbed of the birth of evil gods"? I feel like I'm making a big death... The evil god may not be as terrifying as the Eternal Lieyang, but the ability may be even more weird, maybe I will find me by following the clues... And there is no way to predict how dangerous it is to try this way, because once the gods are involved, divination has no No danger itself brings danger...

Remember this question first, observe more and think more...

Regarding the matter of potions, the arrangement of the church is indeed quite strange. I don’t know what secrets are hidden behind it. Maybe wait for the "psychic", no, it should be the "necromancer" Daly who becomes the archbishop or senior deacon , entering the core level of the church, I can get some hints...

What Russell said really makes people yearn for the demeanor of a high-sequence powerhouse...

Thoughts flashed one by one,

Klein stopped tapping the edge of the ancient long table, looked at "Justice", "The Hanged Man" and "The Sun" and said:

"You can communicate freely."

"The Hanged Man" Alger immediately said:

"Mr. Fool, Ms. Justice, I have newly obtained information that Vice Admiral Hurricane Chillingus sneaked into Backlund to complete a difficult task, and he may stay there for a long time In addition, I also know that this matter involves a very important item, which can help Qilingus quickly become a high-sequence powerhouse."

"Becoming a high-sequence powerhouse soon? Isn't he afraid of losing control?" Audrey grasped the key point of the other party's description, posing as a "spectator", and asked in confusion.

Qilingus is the "Wind Blessed One" of Sequence 6, and there is a Sequence 5 away from Sequence 4.

Alger had expected such a question a long time ago, and answered frankly:

"That's why that item is very important."

"Of course, this is all my speculation. The information I have received is as follows: Qilingus believes that once he completes the commission and gets the item, he will soon be able to have a relationship with the 'King of the Five Seas' Nas The special staff also stated that the 'four kings' among the pirates will become 'five kings', and the seven pirate generals will be reduced to six."

"Ordinary people may not know it, but as Extraordinary, we should all know that the 'Four Kings' among pirates are either directly high-sequence powerhouses, or possess high-sequence combat power with the cooperation of extraordinary ships and magical items. If Qilinguesi wants to be recognized and equal to them, he must have a similar level, so I speculate that way."

I only know that "King of the Five Seas" Nast is a strong player in Sequence 4, but I don't know the name of his potion... Klein listened quietly and did not express his opinion lightly.

Although "The Sun" Derrick Berg couldn't understand the events described by "The Hanged Man" at all, and didn't know who was who, he still listened attentively, only feeling that the world presented a new window before his eyes. the gate.

pirate? The place where they live has the ocean declared in the books? That's very different from the environment around the City of Silver... They don't seem to be worried about curses, and they don't worry about the invasion of dark things... It's really very curious... Well, Mr. Fool told me, don't It's impolite to ask other people's secrets at will... Derrick thought silently, looking back and forth between "The Hanged Man" and "Justice".

"Your speculation is reasonable. Of course, it may also be a mystical item that can rival high-sequence powerhouses." "Justice" Audrey responded with a smile.

"The Hanged Man" looked at "The Fool" who was standing high in the thick gray fog, thought for a while, and looked at "Justice" and emphasized:

"The description I just made has two important points. One is that Qilingus will stay in Backlund for a long time, and the other is that it involves a very important and possibly very mystical item."

So, Mister Fool, aren't you tempted? You have plenty of time to send your loved ones to Backlund... Alger silently added something in his heart, but he didn't dare to say that directly, so he could only say it tactfully.

Mr. "The Hanged Man", you don't have to repeat it, I can understand what you want to express... However, my strength does not support my meddling in this matter, and I can't leave Tingen without authorization... Klein Leaning back against the back of the chair, he thought helplessly.

Not to mention the favored ones, I can find two more powerful Extraordinary people to help...

One is Daly who has been promoted to Sequence 6, but it is impossible for me to explain all the situation to her. At most, I have received a tip that "Vice Admiral Hurricane" Qilingus has infiltrated Backlund and lives in such-and-such A certain street, what are you planning to do? In that case, Daly might directly mobilize the power of the Nighthawks, making things very chaotic and troublesome... In the end, if you still can't find helpers, well, you can do this Give it a try and avoid a tragedy...

The other one is Mr. Ards, but it is impossible for me to reveal the identity of "The Fool" to him. If I want to ask him to get involved in Qilingos' affairs, there is no sufficient and legitimate reason...

Thoughts flashed one by one, Klein said calmly:

"I see."

Seeing that the Fool still didn't make a statement, and still didn't pay attention to Qilingus' matter, "The Hanged Man" Alger sighed secretly, restrained his frustration, and began to communicate with Miss "Justice" about the results of this week's investigation.

"...In short, we have preliminarily locked the general scope of activities of Qilingus, and we are about to start a further search." Audrey first briefly explained the specific situation, and then said that I am doing big things and doing serious things. Mentality said, "We need more information, the focus is on Qilingus' hobbies and habits."

"The Hanged Man" Alger said while recalling:

"He likes to eat fish very much, especially the fish in the ocean, sliced ​​and eaten raw..."

"He loves hard liquor and despises champagne and claret, etc..."

"Once he goes ashore, he will always find a woman to vent, and his strong body makes it impossible for a single woman to satisfy him..."

"He is used to using cold weapons and rejects hot weapons."

"It's very difficult for him to be out of the water for long periods of time, I mean, he's swimming or diving every few days."

...

Audrey remembered them one by one, and outlined and fleshed out the character called Qilingus in her mind.

"I hope it will be successful, and we will have a happy cooperation." An Jing finished listening, and she said with a smile.

"Happy cooperation." Alger could only force himself to believe in the very energetic Miss Justice in Backlund.

During their exchange, Klein seemed to be listening carefully, but in fact, his thoughts diverged and he thought of the previous question, that is, if "The Sun" wants to obtain materials, how should he pay the other party.

He has been able to barely pass the occult, and he habitually looks for ideas to solve problems in the field of ritual magic, which belongs to the path dependence accumulated in the previous success.

"... Before looking through the internal data of the Night Watchers, I saw the record of the goddess bestowing holy objects on believers. Well, in many sacrificial ceremonies involving evil gods and demons, there are also descriptions of the arrival of objects... Does this mean that I can use it in When responding to the prayer, 'give' the other party items, so as to complete the payment of materials..."

"In the previous attempts, I can only respond to thoughts that contain images and sounds for the time being... But this does not mean that it will only be like this forever... When I am promoted to Sequence 8 and stabilized, there may be new changes..."

"In addition, there is another key point, can I bring real materials or items into the gray mist? Hmm... uh... ah yes, those sacrificial ceremonies involving evil gods and demons often include 'sacrifice' link! Can I consider myself 'sacrificing' things to myself?"

"In this way, it may be possible to bring realistic materials and items above the gray mist..."

"If the attempt is successful, I can directly obtain items and materials from 'Justice', 'Sun' and 'The Hanged Man', and then 'gift' myself..."

"Well, 'sacrifice' is a relatively advanced ceremony, and I haven't had access to it yet..."

"The most important thing right now is to improve yourself as soon as possible!"

Klein withdrew his thoughts, and continued to listen to the three members' exchanges with a profound attitude, listening to their discussion from the matter of Qilingus to the characteristics of certain monsters.

After about a while, he smiled and said:

"Come here today."

"Follow your wishes." Derrick "The Sun", "Justice" and "The Hanged Man" stood up at the same time and said.

After cutting off contact with the three members, Klein also quickly fell into the gray fog and left the mysterious space.

Back in the bedroom, he removed the spiritual wall, opened the curtain of the oriel window, and let the sunlight from outside shine in.

"There are two important things this week. One is to accept the test and be promoted to Sequence 8, and the other is to produce the 'Sun Flame Talisman'. Its power will even surpass Sequence 7 and Sequence 6..." Klein looked at the people outside. Street, thinking with anticipation, "Tomorrow, tomorrow should be able to receive the report of the supernatural event created by Mr. Azik!"
