Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 19 Bait

After sending the telegram and clearing the table, “White Shark” Hamilton completely relaxed, and had the mood and ability to think about the details of the matter.

The first question that popped into his mind was:

"Where are the guards outside?"

He put his hands together, stood up abruptly, and walked to the door with heavy steps. When he opened it, he found a few of his subordinates standing there crookedly, telling jokes about women.

Hamilton was furious at first, then calmed down immediately, and beat the open door with his facial muscles beating slightly.

Boom!

The guards were startled, and instinctively turned their heads to look at the door.

"boss……"

"Boss..."

Seeing who made the sound, they hurriedly stood up and spoke in a whisper.

"White Shark" silently took a breath and said:

"Did you see who entered my room just now?"

"Yes, Laldero, there is something wrong downstairs." The guards were very confused about this question, "Boss, you let him in..."

As soon as the words fell, they suddenly thought of other explanations, and asked one after another:

"Boss (boss), is something stolen?"

Hamilton's expression sank and he shook his head:

"Don't be distracted!"

bang! He withdrew his body and closed the door, leaving a few guards there looking at each other, suspecting that the leader was drunk.

In the room, the tall and fat Hamilton frowned and paced back and forth.

"Lardero, Lardero, what they saw was Lardero... that guy, that guy, can he change into someone else's appearance?" As a collaborator helping pirates sell stolen goods and collect intelligence, "Bai "Shark" Hamilton is no stranger to various rumors at sea, and the first thing that comes to mind is the former pirate general Chillingus who is said to be able to turn into anyone.

However, he quickly thought of more:

"It doesn't have to be this magical ability,

If it is really close to the description in the rumors, illusions, hints, and mental manipulation can all do similar things.

"Hiss, there is something wrong. Just now, that guy looks gentle, but is crazy inside, and his strength is terrifying. How could he pretend to be my subordinate in order to sneak in, and call him 'boss'? With his displayed character, he should Knock or kill everyone you see along the way, walk up to the door, and knock very politely!

"If it is to avoid making a big noise, not leaving too much information, and not revealing the secrets related to his own sequence, then he can use a more concealed method, such as climbing a window...

"It's very contradictory... There is only one explanation for such a contradiction, he is pretending!

"Disguised personality, or pretended to be powerful? Or, both possible?"

Thinking of this, Hamilton suddenly stopped and strung together all the details:

"That guy is a novice! His madness is disguised! His strength is expressed by relying on some magical item!

"Yes, it must be so!

"Only in this way can we explain those contradictions. He doesn't climb the outer wall and enters through the window because he is low in sequence and not good at this area. The focus of magical items is not in this field... He wants to enter smoothly. Room, I am willing to lower my head and call me boss because I rely purely on magical items, do not have much confidence in myself, and are not arrogant and crazy enough... He behaves like a lunatic in order to match the effect of magical items on people. Stress, ask for news.

"This can also perfectly explain why he left like that. The reason why he came to me was because he got a powerful magical item, his ambitions were inflated, and he wanted to make a fortune by catching and hunting some pirates. Wait until you know I was serving for 'Silver Coin Viper' Odell and Old Quinn, the intelligence officer of 'Admiral of Blood', and after the 'Queen of Mysteries' might be involved, I was afraid, frightened, and chose to leave after a little perfunctory, no Dare to kill!"

The more "White Shark" Hamilton thought about it, the more he felt that he had found the truth. He hurriedly reset the radio station, dug out the code book, and reissued a piece of information, briefly describing his guess.

He believed that he was not being targeted by hunters. The previous incident was purely due to the inflated ambition of a young man who had obtained an adventure, and he also gave the corresponding characteristics of the target:

"Blonde hair and blue eyes, not crazy, even a little timid.

"Possessing a rather miraculous item, it may be able to change its appearance and figure, it may be able to create hallucinations, combined with a sense of terror, the latter is more likely, in short, there is no way to know what he really looks like.

"He is a novice with little experience, and he is good at disguising a powerful aura with the help of items!

"I have a certain understanding of me, not like a foreigner who came to Damir Port for the first time."

Da, da, da, Hamilton stopped his fingers and leaned back in satisfaction, making the chair creak.

The corners of his mouth turned up a little bit, as if he had seen the end of the bastard just now:

"A guy with a low rank but possessing powerful magical items will not end well in the sea, more greedy sharks will flock to him!

"At that time, there is no need to worry about my problems being exposed!"

…………

The port under the night is quite quiet. Klein, who left "Flying Fish and Wine", circled to the distance, first fast and then slow, and gradually entered the state of walking.

After confirming that no one was following him, he changed his face back to Gehrman Sparrow as he passed through the dark area, and tucked the hem of his shirt into his pants.

After trimming his sideburns, Klein took out his gold-rimmed glasses and placed them on the bridge of his nose. His appearance was gentle but a little stern.

He began to rely on the stars to identify the direction and return to the place where the White Agate was docked.

As he walked, he let out a low laugh, and in the cold wind blowing against his face, he thought leisurely:

"I hope that 'White Shark' is not so stupid and can see the flaws I left..."

The character he made for tonight's "Visitor" is a new adventurer with little experience and will make mistakes, and this person knows a lot about Damir Port and "White Shark", and he wears a coveted The magical item, was dizzy by the powerful force, and seemed a little crazy inside.

Klein's initial thought was that pirates roamed the oceans, and even the navy would find it difficult to find them. If he could obtain more accurate information from "White Shark", then of course he could directly provide service at his door. If not, he could use This identity and appearance are used as bait to attract some pirates who know the goods to the predetermined location to complete the initial hunting.

After discovering that "White Shark" was able to contact Old Quinn, the intelligence officer of "Admiral Blood", Klein's plan was perfected, that is, to obtain the password content and spectrum band, monitor the corresponding situation, and grasp the target's movements. And interfere with the divination, and then at the most appropriate time, use the combination of powerful magical items and weak adventurers as bait to catch a few big fish.

"The problem now is that I don't have a monitoring device... I can't buy it at sea... With the status of 'World', please ask Miss 'Justice' or 'Magician' to help purchase a set in Backlund. The way of offering sacrifices is 'delivery'... this is the advantage of the Tarot Club!" Thinking of this, Klein felt a burst of emotion.

Seeing that the White Agate was in sight, he quickened his pace a little, and found Donna's family, Cleves and others returning from another street.

Cleves greeted him with a nod, and when they met formally, he said in a low voice:

"I heard there was trouble at 'Flying Fish and Wine'?"

The news is very well-informed, and I am quite familiar with Damir Port... Klein drew the corners of his mouth and replied flatly:

"Just taught two liars a lesson."

Cleves frowned slightly, and suddenly felt that his judgment of Gehrman Sparrow was a bit wrong.

After observing and getting along with him before, he thinks that although the young adventurer is a bit sharp, reserved, and cold, he is still a person with a smile, good manners, and knowing how to advance and retreat. But now, he is a little uncertain. Sure enough, I just felt that deep in the other party's heart, there might be a flame of madness hidden.

At this moment Donna's father interrupted and asked:

"Mr. Cleves, who is this?"

"A colleague, Gehrman Sparrow." Cleves introduced very simply.

Klein smiled politely and stretched out his right palm:

"It's an honor to meet you. If you need to hire someone in the future and you can't find Cleves and the others, you can consider me."

"No problem, I hope you are as strong and professional as them!" Donna's father shook hands with Klein enthusiastically, and introduced himself, "Uldi Blanche."

Just as Klein let go and retreated, he felt a sudden inspiration. He felt a slight abnormality in the gift box carried by the servants of Blanche's family.

He quietly opened his Spirit Vision and found that the gift box contained strips of cured meat, but the surface of the cured meat was very red, white was very white, and black was very black, as if it came from the spirit world.

It has the breath of the spirit world, but it is basically harmless... This cured meat is very strange... Klein was surprised for a while.

Noticing his gaze, Donna's father smiled and said:

"This is a specialty of Damir Port. There is an extinct volcano in the center of the island, and there are gaps in several caves around it. There are natural hot winds blowing there. Cured meat can be dried there to obtain a wonderful and unique flavor. It can be used as a gift for friends.

"Mr. Sparrow, if you want to buy some, there is still time."

Unique flavor? Taste of the spiritual world? Klein roughly understood what was going on.

According to the theory of occultism, the spirit world completely overlaps with the reality but does not interfere with each other. It must rely on extraordinary power to break the gap, but this situation is not absolute. There are some spirit worlds in the world that are too strong and vaguely affect reality. place.

In such an area, the dead can easily turn into water ghosts, zombies, etc., and there are quite a few supernatural events in the residence.

There should be a similar situation inside the cave in Damir Port, but it’s not serious, and it didn’t cause abnormalities. It just imparted a unique flavor to the cured meat... It’s okay to eat a lot of this kind of thing at once... Klein responded with a smile road:

"I have no interest in bacon."

It wasn't until this moment that he confirmed that the cured meat given by the bartender was of a common variety, not specially made.

At this moment, the little boy Denton pointed to the moon in the sky and said:

"It's so red!"

"Yeah!" Donna nodded in agreement.

So popular? Klein looked up and felt that the red moon tonight was no different from usual.

Because the child's spirit is relatively pure, after eating this kind of cured meat and being contaminated with the breath of the spirit world, he has a short-term, certain spiritual vision ability? Could it be the same for the children on this island? Hehe, this may be the source of the folklore of Port Damir... Klein examined it and found the answer.

A group of people walked back to the side of the ship, walked along the gangway, and went to the deck.

Klein bid them farewell, and headed for the second-class seat.

Suddenly, with a twitch in his heart, he turned on his spirit vision again.

He saw the huge white bone messenger appear in front of him, and dropped a letter.
