Chapter 875 Brotherhood of Our Lady

Just as Joan lowered his head to think, a strange fragrance floated over, bringing him back to his senses.

Looking up, it turned out that it was Ms. Betty holding a beautiful porcelain pot and pouring tea for the guests.

The light green liquid gushed out from the spout and poured into the teacup. The strange fragrance emitted made Joan feel unreal.

Ms. Betty held up the tea tray and presented it to the two visitors with a smile.

Qiao An hurriedly got up to thank him, and picked up a cup of tea, but didn't drink it right away.

Professional "alchemy" training cultivated his particularly sensitive sense of smell for drugs.

The smell from the teacup reminded him of the "tranquilizer" he concocted to treat insomnia.

The ingredients of the tea are really suspicious!

Betty probably saw the hesitation in his eyes, picked up her cup of tea, took a sip gracefully, and showed him a seductive smile.

"It's a good thing, and if you haven't tasted it, you can't imagine how good it is."

"Just one sip will surely allow you to experience the feeling of breaking free from the shackles of the world and discover a more authentic self."

After hearing her poetic exclamation, Joan was even more afraid to try the suspicious liquid in the cup.

In his opinion, if you really recommend a drink, the simplest and most effective way is to clearly state the ingredients and efficacy; Experience... Then this thing may have some kind of ulterior side effect.

He didn't intend to drink this cup of tea of ​​suspicious origin, but out of politeness and it was inconvenient to refuse in person, he could only cast a look of help to his mentor.

Professor Moriarty smiled knowingly, and said nonchalantly: "Young people are immature and have poor self-control. It's best not to try things like 'Phantom Dew' lightly."

Hearing what he said, Joan's guess was verified. This cup of light green liquid is indeed the most famous specialty of Fort Donning, "Phantom Dew", a powerful hallucinogen, which is said to have a certain aphrodisiac effect.

After learning the truth, think back to what Betty said just now. The so-called "getting rid of the shackles of the world" and "discovering the true self" are actually just mental hallucinations after taking drugs.

Of course, Joan would not drink this addictive and brain-damaging ghost thing, but what puzzled him was that Professor Moriarty clearly knew the harm of drinking "Phantom Dew", but he didn't mind drinking it. Betty drank down the cup of tea that Betty offered.

Joann didn't believe that her mentor was a "addict" who abused drugs, and could only think that Professor Moriarty had mastered the method to eliminate the side effects of "Phantom Dew", or some kind of spell that could quickly quit drug addiction.

"Betty, it's getting late, let's talk about business first."

Professor Moriarty put down his teacup, not only did his face show no signs of intoxication, but he looked extremely serious instead.

"I came to Dunning Castle this time, apart from visiting old friends, I also wanted to buy a batch of slaves from you as experimental subjects."

"Of course there is no problem. Whether as a businessman or as an old friend, I will try my best to meet your request."

Joan found that even when discussing business, Ms. Banzhuoer's words and demeanor had a hint of provocation.

Perhaps this is the secret to making a deal for her.

Of course, it's more likely that today's client is something special to her.

"My request is very simple, 25 males and 25 males, young and healthy, without acne." Professor Moriarty thought for a while, and added, "By the way, I only want Asa people."

Joan had known for a long time that the mentor bought slaves to advance research on the smallpox virus.

It is reasonable for the experimental subjects to test the smallpox virus to be young, healthy and have no acne.

However, why did the teacher emphasize that only Asa people are needed?

Considering that the mentor was commissioned by the Midgard military to research virus weapons, Joan couldn't help but have some conspiracy theory associations.

Ms. Betty wrote down all the conditions offered by Professor Moriarty on a piece of paper, stood up and smiled, "I'll go down and have a look. It shouldn't be difficult to gather the goods you need. Wait a minute, I'll be right back."

With that, she turned and walked towards the door.

The moment she turned around, Joan raised her head inadvertently, her eyes touched the back of her neck, she couldn't help being shocked, and instinctively bounced off the sofa!

In this hot season, Ms. Betty wore a cool suspender backless long dress, except for two slender shoulder straps that covered her back, her back was almost completely exposed.

However, what attracted Joan's attention was not her figure, but the deformed eyeball that grew on the back of her neck!

That's right, those are definitely genuine eyes, almost exactly the same as the "strange eye" on the back of Joan's neck!

The back of Joan's neck was scorching hot, and the eyeball, which symbolized the strange blood, seemed to sense that there was another person in the room with a strange organ similar to his own, and it jumped up and down.

Through the half-closed eyes on the back of her neck, Ms. Betty saw Joann's astonished face, she stopped in her tracks, but she didn't look back, she just covered her mouth and chuckled.

This weird laughter echoed in the room, making Joan's scalp tingle.

Just when she was at a loss, the eyeball on the back of Ms. Betty's neck suddenly opened completely, and she blinked charmingly, as if greeting him.

Ms. Betty put away her laughter and continued walking. Pingting's back quickly disappeared outside the door.

It wasn't until the door was closed that Joan could no longer see the strange "same style" eyeball on the back of Ms. Betty's neck. Only then did Joan calm down and sit back on the sofa. His back was drenched in cold sweat.

Professor Moriarty seemed not surprised by his reaction. He poured himself a glass of "Phantom Dew", took a sip, and said lightly, "Don't be afraid, the eyeball on the back of Betty's neck will not pose any threat to you. It was just a somewhat special sign that she was a full member of the Fraternity of Our Lady."

"Holy Mother..."

Joan muttered to himself, something deep in his memory was touched by the mentor's unintentional words just now, and returned to his mind, gradually changing from blur to clarity.

"The 'Brotherhood of Our Lady' is a very special underground church. It is not well-known, but its potential influence on all walks of life cannot be underestimated."

Professor Moriarty saw that his students were very interested in the "Brotherhood of Our Lady", so he said a few more words.

"In this kind of church with a strong 'recluse' color, most of the members act in a low-key manner and never openly preach, but the situation in Castle Donning is a bit special."

"The headquarters of the 'Brotherhood of Our Lady' is located in Fort Dunin. In this city, almost all the half-drow people worship the supreme 'Holy Mother' in their eyes."

"As for Betty, of course it's no exception."
