Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 131: 1 Throw, 0 Gold

Inside the underground shooting range of the Kragg Club.

After shooting practice, Klein carefully maintained the attached revolver, and adjusted the ratio of purification bullets, demon hunting bullets, and exorcism bullets to 3:1:1.

Phew, he exhaled, put away the revolver, straightened his coat, and slowly returned to the lobby on the first floor.

He had just heard the waiter mention that today's limited supply is pan-fried keel fish.

As soon as he entered the cafeteria, Klein saw his acquaintance Talim Dumont. This equestrian instructor with short brown curly hair and from a poor noble family was eating his lunch without focusing his eyes.

Klein went over with his dinner tray, sat down, and said hello.

Talim turned his head and glanced at him, his lips moved a few times, he was silent for three or four seconds, and finally he said in a whisper:

"Sherlock, do you know, do you know that kind of strange, powerful, rare person?"

I know, the one in front of you is... Klein raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not give a positive answer:

"What do you want to do?"

Talim opened his mouth, but said nothing.

He thought for a while with a solemn expression, squeezed out a smile and said:

"Nothing, I'm just curious."

Last time I asked what to do if I fell in love with someone I shouldn't love, this time I asked if I know someone with strange abilities... Is this trying to get rid of the other party and completely cut off your friend's thoughts? Who is worth your risk? Hiring a killer is equivalent to murder! Klein muttered a few words silently, cut a piece of thornless fish and stuffed it into his mouth.

Talim took a breath, quickly finished the food on the plate, and wiped his mouth with a napkin.

He seemed to have returned to normal, and said with a smile:

"Mike wants to hire you as his bodyguard for a few days."

Mike Joseph? The Daily Observer reporter? I remember his performance in "Golden Rose" was quite good... Klein said with a smile:

"What does Mike want to do again?"

Talim spread his hand and said:

"I am not sure,

He just mentioned this matter casually, as if it was related to an interview assignment. He said that he would visit you the day after tomorrow, and hoped that you would be free to accept this assignment. "

"I'm not sure." Klein, who didn't know the details, didn't give an affirmative answer.

At this moment, phantom prayers sounded in his ears, coming from a lady.

Miss "Magician"? Is she ready to sacrifice money for the formula? Klein speeded up, finished the remaining food, then drank dry black tea in one gulp, went to the reception desk and asked the waiter to open a lounge for him.

After sealing the room with the "spiritual wall", he entered above the gray mist and found that his judgment was correct, and Miss "Magician" was applying for a sacrificial ceremony.

The reason why Forsi dragged on until now was because she only had 370 gold pounds with her, and she had to go to the bank to withdraw part of the deposit.

After some operations, she saw the 450 pounds in cash disappear into the "Illusory Gate", and there was an extra formula in her mind:

"Sequence 8, master of tricks."

"Main materials: the stomach pouch of a spirit eater, 20ml of blood from a deep-sea marlin."

"Auxiliary materials: 5ml of essential oil made from hornbeam, 10g of thread ball grass powder, a blooming red chestnut flower, 80ml of pure water."

Finally, finally got it! For several years! Forsi was overjoyed for a while, and couldn't help pacing back and forth, full of ambition.

Immediately, she worriedly took out a pen and paper, and recorded the formula, so as not to forget it and trouble Mr. Fool.

If you can’t meet people who don’t understand the market, the main materials will cost at least 300 pounds a piece, and I only have 430 pounds left... I have to work hard to make money... I, I’m going to write a new book! Fors instantly felt that she was full of motivation, and she was no longer the advanced procrastination patient before.

…………

At 7:55 p.m. on Wednesday, Klein, carrying all his savings, stepped into the house where Mr. "Eye of Wisdom" held a party with mixed feelings.

He was cloaked in black, with the shadow of a hood covering his face, and he also wore an iron mask.

"1,674 pounds in cash, and 5 gold coins. This is the new pinnacle of my wealth. I don't know how much will be left after this party..." Klein entered the living room full of thoughts, and by the light of the flickering candle, Scanned around.

Hey, the pharmacist didn't come, is there some delay? Klein frowned slightly, and sat in the same position as last time.

After a few minutes, the old man "Eye of Wisdom" clapped his hands and said:

"let's start."

Before he finished speaking, someone couldn't wait to speak. It was the lady who seemed to be supported by a craftsman behind her.

She pressed her voice and said:

"Did the friend who sold the 'Briber' formula come last time?"

"I'm here." Klein replied succinctly.

The lady breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out her hand and pushed off the iron mask and said:

"This time there are extraordinary weapons you need, of course, you can also choose cash."

"What extraordinary weapon?" Klein suppressed the restlessness in his heart.

The lady organized the following language:

"This is a whip woven from the feathers of a sacred sunbird."

"Usually you can disguise it as a belt."

"When used, it will cover the pure holy fire of light, and all undead monsters drawn by it will suffer great damage, and the weaker ones will even be wiped out directly."

"It can also be used to soak liquids to make 'sun holy water', but this will reduce its spiritual maintenance time, one month at a time."

"It's currently valid for thirteen months."

"If you want, I can exchange it for the 'Briber' formula, and you don't need to add any extra money."

Holy Sunbird? It's not the sun god bird, if it's the latter's feather, I want it! Of course, only the tail feathers will work, which can be used to prepare the Sequence 4 "Darkless One" potion... Klein is quite satisfied with the weapon itself, but the problem is that it has a lot of effect on purifying bullets and exorcising evil bullets and it can only be used for thirteen months. Every time a solar holy water is made, it will be reduced by one month. At that time, he will have to replenish similar items.

Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at the main seat:

"Mr. Eye of Wisdom, can you introduce the brooch mentioned last time in detail?"

"Well, write it on a note and indicate the price that will satisfy you."

He was afraid that other people present would also be interested in the brooch after listening to the introduction, thereby raising the price, so he temporarily decided to let the other party use the method of writing.

"Okay. The Eye of Wisdom" smiled and asked the waiter to bring a pen and paper.

While he was writing, the party members continued to trade, and some people even asked the price of the whip emotionally, and got the answer later.

After a while, "Eye of Wisdom" wrote the introduction and handed it to Klein through the waiter.

Klein unfolded it and found that the words on the paper were all printed, and there was nothing special about them.

Be careful...he read carefully:

"The 'Sun Brooch' can also be called 'Midsummer', which is similar to the weaker one in the second-level sealed item."

"With it as the center of the circle, the pure and warm power will be filled within ten meters. Normal people cannot detect it, but the undead monsters will continue to be hurt. They will quickly "evaporate" like a pool under a hot fireball. The same is true for souls and shadows, but they will last a little longer."

"In this environment, the strength of powerful undead will be significantly weakened."

"The wearer is difficult to be possessed and polluted by evil spirit monsters, and can use 'Summon Holy Light', 'Create Holy Water', 'Bright Fire', 'Purification Slash', 'Immune to Fear', 'Holy Oath' and ' Sun Halo' and other spells."

"The disadvantage is that as long as you wear it, you will never feel cool, and you will always be in terrible heat. Young people, don't underestimate this state. If you are hot and disturbed, you will step into the abyss of losing control little by little."

"Only when the bid reaches £2,000 can I sell it."

"Don't try to bargain, you should be very clear, I am not too short of money, and I am a collector."

It's much stronger than I imagined. The old man "Eye of Wisdom" was too vague last time... Klein's heart skipped a beat. After thinking for a few seconds, he looked sideways at the "craftsman" behind him. "Ms.:

"900 pounds in cash."

The normal price of the Sequence 7 potion formula is around 800 pounds.

"Deal!" The lady replied without hesitation!

...I knew I would open a 1,000-pound one... Klein squeezed out a smile.

He was a trustworthy person, and he did not regret it. He exchanged the prepared formula for 900 pounds in cash, and the banknotes on his body surged to 2,574 pounds in an instant. This is enough savings for a single man to live a good life all his life.

After being appraised by the "Eye of Wisdom" old man, the lady looked at the formula again with satisfaction:

"Sequence 7, the briber."

"Main ingredients: "Crying Baby" flower, strange face marijuana crystals."

"Auxiliary materials: 5 drops of golden mandala juice, 5 drops of black mandala juice, 4 drops of psychedelic grass essential oil, 80 ml of red wine.

After completing the deal, Klein took a breath, looked at the old Mr. "Eye of Wisdom", and said solemnly:

"2000 pounds, I want that 'sun brooch'."

"Eye of Wisdom" chuckled twice:

"Frankly speaking, I don't really want to sell it, but since I have '2-081', the existence of the 'Sun Brooch' is not necessary, and I have already made an offer, and regretting it is not my style."

"Wait for me for three minutes, I'll take out the 'Sun Brooch'."

"Okay." Klein replied with pain and expectation.

At this time, the eyes of the Extraordinary in the living room were all on him, and a transaction of 2,000 pounds rarely appeared in ordinary gatherings of this level, not necessarily once in a year or two.

And from these gazes, Klein clearly sensed a certain amount of greed and covetousness.

After a brief silence, the transaction continued until the "Eye of Wisdom" returned, and in his open palm lay a dark golden brooch in the shape of a sunbird.

It can be clearly seen that there is a little sweat on the face of the "Eye of Wisdom".
