Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 34 Prepaid Remuneration

In the windowless basement, Alger Wilson, with a rough and deep outline, sat beside a long table with various utensils and parchment scrolls.

In front of him, a half-burned candle stood, and the dim and dim flame illuminated the surrounding objects and the surface of the long table with light and shadows floating in shadows.

Alger's hair was messy like seaweed, and the color was dark blue and nearly black. He was wearing a robe embroidered with lightning patterns. He clasped his hands, thumbs were opposite each other, and leaned forward to stare at a bottle of pitch-black liquid on the left side of the candle.

Woo! Woo! Woo!

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

From the sealed bottle, there was sometimes the sound of howling wind, and sometimes the surging movement of the sea, and where the pitch-black liquid had not submerged, a faint mist permeated and wriggled, as if eyes and mouths had grown.

Alger glanced sideways at the clock on the wall and saw that the hour hand was pointing to three o'clock.

He pinched his temples, his eyes suddenly darkened, and the various utensils on the table also showed a subtle luster.

At this time, he found that the crimson light emerged like a tide, emerging out of thin air, and drowning himself in one fell swoop!

…………

Backlund, Queens, in the Hall's luxury villa.

Audrey, who had dismissed the dance teacher, locked the door of the house and sat upright in front of the dresser.

The sun was shining outside the window, the flowers were blooming brightly, and a blank notebook bound with delicate hazel parchment was quietly spread out on the table.

Audrey tried it and determined that as soon as she left the "party", she could pick up the pen and record the recipe as soon as possible.

"I'm really looking forward to it..." She took a breath, suppressed her excitement, and pursed her lips and looked at the mirror.

However, she couldn't see the reflection of herself, only the crimson and illusory light burst out from all around and from within her body at the same time!

…………

Above the gray fog, the grandeur resembled the temple where the giant king lived.

Dark red bloomed on both sides of the long bronze table, surging up and down like a fountain, and "carved" two vague figures, their positions did not change from the last time.

The tall, slender Audrey looked up instinctively, and saw the figure shrouded in the thick gray fog sitting back, laying one hand flat, touching the edge of the table, holding the other hand and twitching her chin.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool~!" Audrey shouted briskly.

Then, she turned her head, looked at the opposite, and said in the same tone:

"Good afternoon, Mr. Hanged Man~!"

This girl is really heartless, just confirming that I am a good person and not afraid at all? A well-protected noble girl? Klein smiled, maintaining an unfathomable image and said:

"Good afternoon, Miss Justice."

While speaking, he lowered his head slightly, raised his vacant left hand, and tapped twice between his eyebrows.

What he saw was different in an instant. He saw the brilliance of Justice and The Hanged Man!

The surrounding gray fog and crimson stars did not change, nothing seemed to exist, and there was no bright and pure brilliance that seemed to have a certain life.

Turning his eyes slightly, Klein saw that the color of Justice's aura completely matched Old Neil's description. The red was red, the purple was purple, the blue was blue, and the white was white. It was bright and shiny and had the right thickness. At first glance, she is a girl full of energy.

"Her emotional colors range from red to yellow, happy, enthusiastic, excited..." Klein made a judgment and turned his attention to The Hanged Man.

Like "Justice", the color of the Hanged Man's aura is nothing special, except that the mood is blue with a bit of orange mixed in it.

"Calm, thoughtful, cautious, and a little bit satisfied?" Klein didn't come to a conclusion with confidence in his first attempt.

Just as he was about to look away, he suddenly noticed something strange.

The innermost layer of the aura of "The Hanged Man" seems to be completely unified in color and feeling!

Klein concentrated his mind and looked carefully, and vaguely saw that the depths of the "etheric body" of "The Hanged Man" was a deep blue like the color of sea water, giving people the feeling of strong winds and waves.

"His 'Astral Spirit Body'? Or the surface of the 'Astral Spirit Body'? In this way, he is really a Beyonder, and he seems to be stronger than Old Neil." Not necessarily, maybe it's just because of this special environment, just because this is my home court, I can see these, not that old Neil didn't have a similar performance."

He turned his head to look at Justice again, confirming that it was a special thing that Extraordinary people have.

At this time, Alger also completed the greeting.

Audrey took a light breath and asked with implicit expectation:

"Mr. Hanged Man, have you received that box of ghost shark blood?"

Alger glanced at Klein, and saw that he tapped his eyebrows, as if thinking about something else.

"Thank you very much, it perfectly met all my expectations. I really didn't expect you to send it here so quickly. The blood of a ghost shark is not an ordinary extraordinary thing." Alger replied calmly.

Audrey smiled modestly and said:

"I'm very happy to see the result."

Because she liked mysterious things since she was a child, she also made some friends with the same hobbies in the aristocratic circle, and they exchanged information, books and rare items with each other, but before this, no one had acquired supernatural ability and became a true Extraordinary , but several princes have hinted that if she is willing to become a princess, she will get the gift she wants.

However, this time, she got the ghost shark blood directly from the family treasury. Anyway, what was registered on the list was a "big bottle". It didn't record how many milliliters it was, and she didn't say whether it was full or not. Little Ban, no one will find out, even if there is an accident and the matter is revealed, the parents should not pursue it.

Alger took another deep look at the Fool shrouded in the gray fog, turned around and said with a smile:

"According to the agreement, I will tell you the recipe of the 'audience' potion."

"I'll prepare, okay, let's start." Audrey took a breath and concentrated all her attention.

"The preparation of low-order potions is very simple, just put them in the order given, but you must remember that the amount of materials would rather be less, not more, that will cause big problems, you should have heard of Beyonder's Out of control, don't I need to repeat it again?" Alger first explained the precautions.

Audrey nodded lightly and said:

"I totally understand."

While speaking, she glanced sideways at Mr. Fool, wondering if the mysterious powerhouse had any supplements. Unfortunately, in her sight, The Fool sat quietly like a statue.

Alger thought for a while and said:

"A little less doesn't mean too much... If you don't have a helping hand, I recommend taking the time to familiarize yourself with the chemistry experiments first."

"I have a tutor in this area." Audrey replied without any burden.

Alger talked about the maximum degree of deviation and other matters, and then recited fluently:

"'The Spectator', Sequence 9 potion, 80ml pure water, add 5 drops of colchicum essence, add 13g bovine peony powder, add 7 petals elf flower, add a pair of adult manhal fish eyes, add 35ml The blood of the horned blackfish."

"The latter two are the main materials, both from marine extraordinary species, so you must be cautious."

"Yeah." Audrey repeated as she recalled, "80ml of pure water, 5 drops of colchicum essence, 13 grams of bovine teeth, bovine teeth..."

"Peony powder." Alger reminded.

With the help of the other party, Audrey gradually memorized the formula in the correct order, but she was still not at ease, and whispered there, repeating it over and over again.

"Do you understand meditation?" Seeing Justice nodded, Alger continued, "I don't know what meditation you know is like, let me describe it first... After taking the magic medicine, start meditating as soon as possible to control spirituality and Power...must be practiced every day to truly master the potion's power, unearth its symbolism and more mysteries, only then can you minimize the danger of losing control, and the potion's symbolism is focused on its 'name' ', like 'audience'!"

Klein quietly listened to their exchange. Originally, he didn't intend to interrupt, but secretly memorized and studied, but when he heard this, his heart suddenly moved and he had an idea.

Audrey listened carefully to The Hanged Man's explanation, and was about to ask a few details when she suddenly heard a tap on the table.

She and Alger turned their heads at the same time and looked at Klein the Fool who was sitting on top. The mysterious powerhouse tapped his fingers and said in a low voice:

"It's not mastering, it's digesting."

"It's not digging, it's acting."

"The name of the potion is not just a symbol, but an image, and a 'key' for digestion."

Audrey was dumbfounded and at a loss, not too understanding what Mr. Fool wanted to express.

She subconsciously looked at the reaction of "The Hanged Man" from the corner of her eye, but was stunned to find that the other person's body trembled and stiffened there, like an ordinary person hearing a huge and sudden thunder.

"Digest, act... Digest, act... Digest, act, key..." Alger whispered over and over again, as if he had caught some key or had been hit by a strange spell.

After a while, he raised his head and said in a hoarse voice:

"Thank you, Mr. Fool, your tips are as precious as my life, it has made me figure out a lot of things, of course, I believe I have not fully understood, fully understood."

Klein maintained a mysterious and profound image, smiled and said:

"It's an advance payment."

In fact, he himself didn't quite understand the exact meaning of the words just now, but he was sure that Emperor Roselle was stronger than ordinary Beyonders, stronger than "The Hanged Man".

The prepaid remuneration... Audrey saw the reaction of The Hanged Man and knew the preciousness of the reminder just now, and asked:

"Mr. Fool, what do you want us to do?"

Alger on the opposite side nodded and said:

"What do you have to entrust?"

Klein leaned back slightly, glanced at each side, and said in a low and soothing voice:

"Help me collect Roselle Gustav's secret diary, even if it's only one page."
