Chapter 405 There’s a Lot More
, Mystery: Servant Begins
But soon, "Hermit" Cattleya ignored her strange thoughts and guessed that Mr. "Tower" might be planning some kind of "plan", and Mr. "Fool" might have a tacit approval attitude.
However, I am not completely sure about this matter at the moment. I have to go back and ask the Queen for her opinion before making a decision.
While her thoughts were spinning, Cattleya simply replied: "I will consider it." Abner did not force it, and turned to look at his subordinate "Star" Leonard: "Help me get a few more That "worm of time". "
In the past two months, the "Intelligent Eye" disguised as "Palles" and parasitized on Triss had clearly noticed Amon's approach, so he planned to further trap the other party.
Leonard was silent for a few seconds before he breathed out and said, "Okay."
He actually didn't know quite what deal the old man and the old monster had secretly made. He wanted to ask, but he was worried that it would ruin their plan.
After all, his strength is low and he is worried that he cannot completely keep the secret. After another round of communication, this week's Tarot gathering came to an end.
After "The World" and "Tower" were left in the ancient palace again, Klein asked: "Are you still digging for clues about the "Goddess of Life" on Blue Mountain Island?"
"It has been found..." Abner sighed, "If nothing else happens, Frank may really be the reincarnation of the "goddess of life"... He may have to become a coffin bearer. People can only recover their memories later. "
"Could the coffin bearers be carrying their own coffins? It symbolizes burying themselves in the previous life. Only then can they fully receive the gifts from the previous life?" Klein guessed as he thought about it.
"Maybe..." Abner doesn't quite agree, because as far as he knows, no matter what kind of "resurrection" this world has, it actually has a certain connection with the "River of Eternal Darkness", and the "Cultivator" path sequence From Sequence 9 to Sequence 4, abilities related to "life" dominate, and it is not until "Pallbearer" that death is involved... Perhaps it is only then that we can communicate with the "River of Eternal Darkness" and retrieve memories.
"How did you confirm that the "Goddess of Life" has reincarnated?" Klein asked again.
"I dug up her body...but there was no trace of spirit left in it, which was completely inconsistent with the state a nature walker should have.
"After that, I "backtracked" it and witnessed the whole process of Frank's birth..."
At this point, Abner seemed not to want to continue this topic and asked instead: "Is there any news from the 'Pale Admiral'?"
She has been putting it off for two months, so she should be ready for the next full moon, right?
Klein nodded and said, "I received her message before the full moon on the 10th of next month. She will take the initiative to contact you."
"Well, I hope the ceremony can go smoothly after the Tarot session next week." October 10th happens to be a Monday.
After the two chatted for a while, Abner returned to the real world.
Sitting on the sofa, he took a sip of the coffee on the table, then stood up and entered the spirit world with one step. A moment later, he suddenly appeared in Trier at the home of "ancient scholar" Daphne.
Even if the vice-president of the Secret Order is not at home, he will leave a marionette to receive important guests, so Abner is not afraid of making shortfalls.
But this time he was lucky, Daphne herself happened to be enjoying afternoon tea at home.
After enthusiastically inviting Lord "God Envoy" to take a seat, Daphne asked: "I wonder what's the purpose of your visit this time?"
"I remember that there is also a 'Flocculated Heart of the Demonic Wolf of the Mist' in the Secret Order's treasury. Go get it and give it to me." Abner was not polite and ordered straight to the point.
Daphne responded without any hesitation, and immediately pulled out a projection of herself and went to the location of the treasure house.
Although she was the vice-president in the past, she actually did not have that much power. If she wanted to use items at the level of Sequence 3 main materials, she could only do so with the simultaneous consent of the three vice-presidents.
But since President Zaratul returned, not only did she gain great trust from him, but one of the other two vice-presidents also disappeared, and the other's attitude changed drastically, from being hostile to her to trying to please her...
of this
Daphne had some vague guesses about the reason. After all, she was also an "unknown believer" who was forcibly transformed, but she didn't dare to think deeply about it. She just had to do things for the host honestly.
Not long after, the "Flocculated Heart of the Demonic Wolf of Mist" was delivered, along with a bottle of its blood, which was one of the auxiliary materials for the "Ancient Scholar" potion.
Seeing this, Abner praised Daphne's ability to do things, and then "teleported" the materials away. ...
Meige Manor is located in the northwest of Backlund and is built along the Tasoke River. It is surrounded by beautiful scenery and has lush flowers and trees inside.
After Abner teleported here, he didn't rush in. Instead, he admired the surrounding scenery first.
Since this place was not far from the abandoned manor where he learned shooting and fighting from Xio, he couldn't help but fall into memories.
"Speaking of which, although I own the Ancient Vine Manor outside Trier, the Fragrance Manor outside Bayam, and the Hot Spring Villa in the north of Indo Port, I have never bought a holiday manor around Backlund... ....
"I remember seeing Xio's nostalgia for that abandoned manor when I was practicing shooting, and I thought about buying it as a gift to her in the future...but I forgot about it later...
"Well, when we get back, we'll find out who the manor belongs to now."
Thinking of this, Abner stopped wandering in the garden, bypassed the fountain, and entered the main building of the manor. The workers and servants who were renovating around him ignored him.
Abner showed up all the way to the living room on the third floor, where Klein was already waiting.
After instructing the valet dressed as the "Saint of Secrets" Butis marionette to guard the door, Klein pushed a check in front of Abner and said with a wry smile: "In order to collect the 500,000, I've suffered a lot, and it's almost all my belongings now...Where's the stuff?"
It's because the pirates suffered a lot, right? Abner complained, then threw a "space bag" made of "Star Worm" to the other party, and said with a smile: "Stop complaining, this bag is for you."
As he said that, he picked up the check and checked it. After confirming that it was correct, he put it away. Then he turned his eyes to the wine cabinet in the living room and blinked: "I have always heard that Mei Ge's self-brewed wine is very good. But I never had the chance to taste it, so today I can finally satisfy my curiosity.”
Klein was in a good mood after getting important materials and buying a space bag for nothing. He was still willing to try his best to satisfy Abner's request, so he smiled modestly and said, "I hope I won't disappoint you."
As a famous grape-growing area in the Northern Continent, the champagne, red wine, and white wine in the northwest suburbs of Backlund are all of high quality. However, most of the manors here belong to the nobility, and the home-brewed alcoholic beverages are basically not sold to the outside world. Therefore, almost no one in the market has heard of it. Only people in the upper class or people close to this circle know the situation.
Rosewood is one of the most representative manor houses in the area. The wines it produces have been widely praised by the local community. The red wines of special vintages have even been offered by collectors for hundreds of pounds per bottle.
However, when Klein was able to buy such a manor for 20,000 gold pounds, he naturally agreed to some conditions, that is, all the wines of special vintages would be taken away by people sent by Duke Negan, but this did not prevent him from using A few other years' collections treat Abner.
After having a few drinks and satisfying his appetite, Abner said goodbye.
"Don't you want to leave after dinner? Half of the chefs in the manor were trained by Xiao Ke, and their skills are very good." Klein asked in surprise.
Although this proposal was very tempting, Abner still shook his head regretfully and said: "Next time...I still have a lot of appointments tonight..."
