Chapter 3173 Investigation
Because of the task entrusted by Alger, Audrey suddenly found that she had a huge advantage in finding someone in Backlund.
However, to be on the safe side, she still conducted detailed inquiries.
"The true name of that magical object is not known, but those who know it call it the Creeping Hunger. Every other day, Zilingus must satisfy it with the soul and flesh of a living person, otherwise it will take My own master instead."
Alger said without any concealment.
There is no doubt that it would be difficult to hide a sealed object with such drawbacks.
Even if there are a lot of homeless people in Backlund, they will still attract attention.
It's okay in the short term, but it's certainly not okay to lurk in the long term.
"Oh, then it seems that this item has the property of being 'alive'."
Xu Yue also nodded thoughtfully at this time.
Klein, who had witnessed Xu Yue training the clown puppet, couldn't help but feel moved.
Huh? Characteristics of being alive?
Doesn’t that mean that side effects that originally seemed to be extremely harmful can have room for negotiation?
I wonder if I can subdue it if I bring it up to the gray mist.
This incident also gave Klein some more motivation.
I really want it...
"He was originally just a wind-blessed person with good extraordinary abilities in the fields of water, wind and weather. But later, people discovered that he could make the target go crazy, enter other people's dreams, summon light to purify the dead, and Using singing to enhance yourself, you can transform into different people’s appearances and become almost omnipotent.”
Alger described it in considerable detail.
"We suspect these are brought about by the magical item Creepy Hunger"
"shepherd?"
Although Little Yang already knew that his knowledge was valuable, he still couldn't help but speak in shock.
Because there is an elder in their six-member council who has this ability.
Shepherds can herd the souls of other extraordinary people, thereby selecting and using their extraordinary abilities.
A newly promoted shepherd can herd three souls to choose from, a fully digested one can herd seven, and even a demigod-level soul.
Although due to its own spirituality, it does not mean that the soul of a shepherd demigod can have corresponding combat power, but this also means that this kind of shepherd itself can be regarded as the strongest sequence of extraordinary beings under the demigod.
And Xu Yue is actually a genuine shepherd now, well, or one of his abilities is shepherd.
Compared to being a shepherd, Xu Yue actually prefers to directly gnaw away the opponent's extraordinary characteristics to directly improve them. When he stepped into the role of a shepherd, he was actually interested in the flesh and blood control ability brought by the Rose Bishop of Sequence 6 in the same path.
Little Sun was honest and honest. Although he already knew that his knowledge was valuable, after seeing what they wanted to know, he still told them about the characteristics of the shepherd.
After the agreement on this transaction, this time the Tarot Club also came to an end...
…
"Invite me to a feast for a week, and I'll tell you a secret."
After Xu Yue's training was completed, and on the way home together, Klein said to Xu Yue mysteriously.
"I reject."
"No, it's really an important secret and will be of great benefit to you."
Klein began to use the stalking technique he learned from Old Neil.
Of course, compared to Old Neil lying directly in front of Xu Yue, crying and saying that he would die if he didn't eat another meal, he looked like an addict.
Klein is still relatively reserved.
"You tell me first, it depends on my mood."
"Okay, but then I'll have to share some of the benefits."
"Look at the value."
"You also know that I went on a mission to expel resentful souls before and used a level 3 sealed object, and that sealed object was very special..."
Afterwards, Klein slowly told the story about the mutated Holy Emblem of the Sun. In addition to talking about his spiritual intuition, he also said that the ancient documents he read contained some descriptions of the mutated Holy Emblem of the Sun, and he knew something about it. A ritual that borrows power.
It doesn't matter whether he can fool him or not, he just knows about it anyway.
The two sides originally had a tacit understanding not to inquire about each other's ins and outs.
"Can you find a way to deal with the side effects of this thing?"
Klein then said that he didn't want Xu Yue to become a fool who only praised the sun.
"Of course, there are ways to exploit any sealed object, as long as you find the right method.
"This information is very useful. If you pass the test, you can buy whatever you want to eat."
"no problem!"
Klein was delighted with his next job as a grocery store aunt.
You can buy whatever you want to eat, and your dear Mr. Franklin cooks it himself. What could be more wonderful than this?
If he could eat his food every day, Mr. Fool wouldn't want to be a businessman anymore.
Because Xu Yue himself has made very high contributions, he is even listed in the church.
So after his request was just for a level 3 sealed item, Dunn received a reply immediately after sending the telegram.
Sealed objects of level 2 and below are not so important.
For example, Detective Essinger, the 'Eye of Wisdom', also has a level 2 sealed item...
…
"Actually, the method for dealing with side effects is very simple, and you have provided it."
After obtaining the mutated Holy Emblem of the Sun, Xu Yue and Klein brought it to Xu Yue's room.
"You mean, keep using it to create spells and drain it?"
Klein also reacted after hearing Xu Yue's words.
"That's right, I'm not talking about draining it, but it's absolutely fine to let it lose or reduce its side effects before it recovers. You can leave it to the clown to carry around at ordinary times, and you can also drain it back when it recovers to the threshold."
Just as they were told, the two stayed up late to draw out eight talismans. After Klein's spirituality was drained, the mutated Holy Emblem of the Sun seemed to have temporarily lost its effect.
The Sun Flame Talisman is a powerful talisman equivalent to a strike from a demigod in the sun domain. The future heir of the evil god will die tragically under this talisman.
Xu Yue also generously gave three talismans to Klein, but if he wanted them again next time, he would have to pay the price.
At the same time, Backlund's Miss Justice also entrusted Fors Wall and Hugh Dilcha, two partners who would join the Tarot Society in the future, to help.
The salty magician Miss Forsi, and the majestic Miss Xio who is 1.5 meters tall.
The two of them used the funds provided by Audrey to directly find Backlund's most famous detective, Essinger.
And successfully used the known information to get certain clues.
It has to be said that this pair of salted fishes is also reckless. Both of them obviously only have Sequence 9, but they are so "open and aboveboard" investigating a pirate with Sequence 5 combat power.
It is indeed in line with the characteristics of wild Extraordinary people who lack information.
In the original work, if Forsi hadn't inherited the beads that allowed him to use the 'travel' ability, the two of them would probably have to lie on the floor together and become squirming hungry rations.
Of course, it was for this reason that Forsi's condition worsened when she heard Mr. Men rap every full moon, which also opened up the opportunity for her to join the Tarot Club.
It's a blessing in disguise...
Two updates completed...
