Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 14 The Psychic

A real psychic... Klein read this description silently, and then followed Dunn Smith out of the carriage without speaking.

Welch's residence in Tingen is a single-family house with a garden. Outside the hollow iron gate is a road that allows four carriages to travel at the same time. There are street lights every 50 meters on both sides of the road. What Lane had seen in his previous life was different. It belonged to a gas lamp. The height of the pillar was slightly equal to that of an adult man, which was convenient for lighting.

The black metal is close to the glass, enclosing a grid, casting a classical "art" like a lantern, dancing with cold and warmth, shadow and light together.

Climbing on the road covered in dusk, Klein and Dunn Smith entered the place where Welch rented through the half-closed iron gate.

Directly opposite the gate is a passageway for two carriages, paved with cement, leading directly to the two-storey house.

It has the garden on the left and the lawn on the right. The light floral fragrance and the refreshing taste are intertwined, making people feel relaxed and happy.

As soon as he stepped in, Klein suddenly stood up, looking left and right.

He felt in the garden, in the shadow of the lawn, on the top floor of the house, behind the swing, in the dim corners, with a pair of eyes watching him!

It was clear that there was no one here, but Klein seemed to be in a lively street.

This bizarre contrast, this bizarre feeling, made his body tense, and cold air came up from his tailbone.

"There is a problem!" He couldn't help but remind Dunn.

Dunn walked to the side with the same expression, and replied plainly:

"do not worry about it."

Seeing that the Nighthawks had said so, Klein endured the creepy feeling of being followed, spied on, and looked at but couldn't find the target, and came to the main entrance of the single-family house step by step.

If I stay like this for a long time, I will become neurotic... When Dunn reached out and knocked on the door, Klein quickly turned his head to look at it again. The flowers were swaying in the wind, and there was no one.

"Come in, gentlemen." A slightly ethereal voice came from the room.

Dunn twisted the handle, pushed in the door, and said to the woman sitting on the sofa:

"Daly, is there any result?"

The chandelier in the living room is not lit, and the leather sofa in the main and two sets surrounds the coffee table made of marble.

There was a candle burning on the coffee table, but the flame was bright blue, covering the semi-open living room, dining room and kitchen with a swaying and strange color.

There was a lady sitting in the middle of the couch. She was wearing a black robe with a hood, blue eye shadow and blush, and a silver chain with a white crystal pendant was wrapped around her exposed wrist.

The first time he saw her, Klein had an inexplicable feeling: Dressed up like a real psychic...

Are you playing yourself?

Daly, the "Psychic" with a bewitching beauty, swept across Klein with flashing green eyes, looked at Dunn Smith and said:

"The original spiritual capital disappeared, including Welch and Naya's, and the little guys here now know nothing."

spirit? Psychic... Those who could not see just now are the spirits? There are so many spirits? Klein took off his hat, put it on his chest, and bowed slightly:

"Good evening, ma'am."

Dunn Smith sighed and said:

"It's really tricky..."

"Daly, this is Klein Moretti, try to find something from him."

"Psychic" Daly's eyes suddenly turned to Klein, she pointed to the single sofa in the second seat and said:

"Please sit down."

"Thank you." Klein nodded, took a few steps over, sat down honestly, and raised his heart unconsciously.

Whether it is life or death, a smooth transition, or a secret exposure, depends on the next development!

What makes me most powerless is that I lack something to rely on, so I can only hope for something special...

This is really a very bad feeling... Klein thought bitterly.

As Dunn sat on the double sofa opposite him, Daly the "psychic" took out two thumb-sized glass bottles from the hidden pocket around his waist.

Her green eyes smiled at Klein and said:

"I need a little assistance, after all, you are not the enemy, you can't be treated so directly and roughly, it will make you uncomfortable, feel pain, and even leave serious sequelae, I will give you some fragrance, give you enough It's gentle and lubricating, allowing you to let go a little bit and really sink into that feeling."

Why doesn't this sound right... Klein was stunned for a while, his eyes surprised.

Dunn on the opposite side smiled and said:

"Don't be surprised, unlike the guys in the Lord of Storms Church, in us, ladies can also verbally molest men. You should be able to understand about this, your mother is a devout believer of the goddess, and you and your brother also read Go to church Sunday school."

"I understand, I just didn't expect it to be like this, like this..." Klein gestured, unable to find a suitable adjective, and almost blurted out the corresponding translation of "old driver".

The corner of Dunn's mouth turned up and said:

"Don't worry, Daly doesn't actually do this. She just wants to calm and relax you in this way. She likes corpses more than men."

"You make me sound like a pervert." "Psychic" Daly interjected with a smile.

She opened one of the small bottles and sprinkled a few drops into the bright blue candle flame:

"Night vanilla, sleeping flower, chamomile mixed with distilled and extracted hydrosol, I call it 'Amanda', which means tranquility in Hermes, and it smells very good."

While speaking, the candle light shook a few times, and the few drops of pure dew quickly evaporated and filled the room.

A serene and charming fragrance penetrated Klein's nose. His emotions were no longer tense, and his mind quickly calmed down, as if looking down at the darkness in the dead of night.

"This bottle is called 'Eye of the Spirit'. It is made with the bark and leaves of the dragon tree and poplar tree for seven days, decocted three times, and soaked in Langqi wine. Of course, there will be a few incantations in the middle. "..." The amber liquid dripped onto the bright blue candle flame along with the description of "Psychic" Daly.

Klein smelled the aroma of wine, the ethereal aroma of wine. He saw the candle light shaking violently, and saw Daly's blue eyeshadow and blush flashing strangely, and even a double image appeared.

"It is a good helper for psychics, and it is also a charming enough flower essence..."

Following Daly's eloquent remarks, Klein could only feel her voice coming from all directions.

Confused and looking around, Klein found that everything was shaking and blurring, like a dense fog shrouded in layers after layers, and even his body was shaking, blurring, fluttering, and losing weight. .

The red is redder, the blue is bluer, the black is blacker, the colors are mixed like an impressionist oil painting, blurred and dreamy, and the surrounding small and overlapping whispers come in waves, as if there are countless invisible people discussing.

"This is similar to how I felt when I did the 'Transfer Ceremony' before, but it doesn't have that crazy smell that makes people want to explode..." Klein looked at all this and wondered.

At this moment, his eyes were attracted by a pair of eyes that were crystal clear like emeralds. Dai Li, who was wearing a black robe, sat on the blurred "sofa", her eyes were strangely focused on the top of Klein's head, and she smiled softly. :

"Let's get to know you formally, I, Daly the Psychic."

This... I can still think calmly and rationally... Just like the 'Transfer Ceremony' and the "Party"... Clay's thoughts moved, and he deliberately showed a state of confusion: "Hello..."

"The human mind is very broad, and there are many hidden secrets. Look, in that sea, we can only understand the islands that are exposed on the surface of the sea, but in fact, there are still larger parts of the islands below the surface of the sea, but in fact , in addition to the island, there is the entire sea, and the boundless sky symbolizing the spiritual world..."

"You are the spirit of the body, you not only know the islands that are exposed on the sea surface, but also the parts of the islands that are hidden under the sea, and the whole sea...

"Everything that exists will leave traces. The memory on the surface of the island can be erased, but the part below the sea and the entire sea must have its remaining corresponding projections..."

Daly induced it over and over again, and the blurred wind and shadows around him also changed into similar shapes, as if Klein's spiritual sea was fully exposed here, waiting for him to find and discover by himself.

Klein watched calmly, "churning" the sea from time to time, and finally answered in an ethereal tone:

"No...I can't remember...I forgot..."

He shows pain just right.

Daly tried to induce it again, but the sober Klein was not affected.

"Okay, let's end here, let's go back."

"Let's go back."

"Let's go back……"

As the ethereal voice lingered, Daly disappeared, the wind and shadow began to subside, and the quiet taste and faint aroma of wine became apparent again.

All the colors returned to normal, and the vague and confused feeling no longer appeared. Klein trembled and regained his weight.

He opened his eyes that he didn't know when to close, and found that in front of him was the bright blue candle, Dunn Smith who was sitting comfortably, and Daly the "Psychic" wearing a black robe with a hood.

"Why did you use the theory of the evil lunatics of the Psychological Alchemy Society?" Dunn frowned slightly and looked at Daly.

While putting away the two small bottles, Daly answered calmly:

"I think it's quite correct, at least in line with some of the things I've seen and encountered..."

Without waiting for Dunn to speak again, she spread her hands and said:

"It's a tricky guy, and leaves no trace."

Hearing this sentence, Klein next to him breathed a long sigh of relief, pretending to be ignorant and asked:

"It's over? What just happened? I feel like I fell asleep..."

This is over, right?

Fortunately, there is a "exercise" of the "Transfer Ceremony"!

"Let's think so." Dunn interrupted his words, looking at Daly the Psychic, "Have you checked the bodies of Welch and Naya?"

"The corpse can tell us more than you can imagine. Unfortunately, Welch and Naya did commit suicide. It can only be said that the power affecting them is terrifying, and there is no trace left." Daly Station Get up, reach for the candle, "I'm going to rest."

The bright blue light disappeared, and the room was instantly flooded with blurred crimson.

…………

"Congratulations, you can go home, but you must remember that you can't tell your family and friends about this, you must guarantee it." Dunn led Klein all the way to the door.

Klein asked in surprise, "Don't you need to check for traces of curses or evil spirits?"

"Daly didn't say it, just didn't." Dunn answered briefly.

Klein was relieved, thinking of his previous worries, and hurriedly asked:

"How can I make sure that there is no trouble behind?"

"Don't worry too much." Dunn moved the corner of his mouth and said, "According to statistics, under similar circumstances, 80% of the living parties have not suffered terrible follow-up. Well, this data is based on my impression. , probably, almost."

"That's 20 percent of the unlucky..." Klein didn't dare to spell "face".

"Then you can consider joining us as a clerk. In this way, we can detect any signs in time." Dunn said casually as he approached the carriage, "Or become a Beyonder directly, after all, we are not your nanny, I can't watch you all night long, even watching what you and women are doing."

"Can I do it?" Klein asked along with this sentence.

Of course, he had little hope, after all, how could it be so easy to join the Nighthawks team and gain extraordinary power!

That is extraordinary power!

Dunn stopped and glanced sideways at him:

"...It's not impossible, it depends on the situation..."

What? This turn of events shocked Klein. He froze beside the carriage for a moment before saying:

"real?"

What are you kidding? Can you become an Extraordinary so easily?

Dunn chuckled, his gray eyes hidden by the shadow of the carriage:

"Don't believe it? In fact, by becoming a night watchman, you will lose a lot, such as freedom."

"Even if you don't mention this first, there are other problems. First, you are not a cleric or a devout believer who has made meritorious deeds. You can't pick and choose, and you can't choose the safest way."

"Secondly..." Dunn grabbed the handrail and boarded the carriageway, "We, the Punisher, the Heart of Mechanics, and other similar judicial organs, a quarter of the incidents handled each year are of Beyonders. out of control."

A quarter... Beyonders lost control... Klein was stunned.

At this time, Dunn turned his body halfway, his gray eyes were deep, and the corner of his mouth moved without a smile:

"And of that quarter, a big chunk of that is our teammates."
