Chapter 16: 1 Sing and 1 Harmony
Inside the Thunder Church, the dome is high and wide, the arches are continuous, and the surrounding murals are connected without any blank space. The main colors are gold and blue, which makes people walking inside feel sacred and solemn subconsciously, and lower their heads involuntarily.
Alger Wilson has often been in contact with hidden beings, and has been gathering in palaces that look like the residence of gods for a long time. He no longer feels the same about it, and he is no longer so in awe. However, he did not show this. Like the sailors around him, he always Looking down at the ground, he walked lightly and softly, not even daring to breathe clearly.
In a quiet atmosphere, they were guided by the pastor all the way to the clergy residence at the back of the church, and each got a room.
After closing the door, Alger could only see the bloody moonlight shining in from the window, making the environment cold and strange, while countless ghostly ghosts seemed to be watching the real world through a thin curtain.
Whenever a "blood moon" appears, the spirituality will always rise, the power from the spirit world and hell will be greatly enhanced, and the negative emotions of the creatures will also explode. The higher the sequence, the more obvious the feeling.
Faintly, Argel heard crying, low shouting, and whispering, which was completely different from the solemn feeling he had in Thunder Church before.
Phantom arms seemed to appear in front of his eyes. They extended from the wall, from the floor, and from the ceiling, like a three-dimensional pale forest.
Alger knew about the abnormality during the "Blood Moon", so he took off the captain's cap without any panic, entered the bathroom, and washed his face with tap water.
During this process, he suddenly heard a distant and beautiful singing voice.
The singing sound was indistinct, as if it came from the center of the island, and it circled around endlessly, as if it was right next to Argel. It didn't make people feel scary, just like a woman who was far away from her family, far away from relatives and far away from her lover. On the edge of the cliff, watching the rushing tide, singing softly and slowly, full of sadness.
Alger pulled off a towel, wiped his face, and listened for a few seconds.
He gradually frowned, took out a small iron box from the secret pocket of the priest's robe, and brought it close to his ear.
It contained the extraordinary characteristics of the "Ocean Singer" he bought from "The World". He suspected that the spirit remaining in the item had temporarily increased under the influence of the blood moon.
As the iron box approached, part of the singing beside Alger's ear suddenly became clear, and emotions such as melancholy, sadness, longing, and pain seemed real.
However, apart from this, there are still faint and ancient singing voices, which are clearly separated from the clear parts, and seem to be singing together!
"Whose singing is this? Like an elf's... an item in the church that originated from an elf? The extraordinary characteristic of "Ocean Singer" in me came from an elf?" Alger nodded with some guesswork.
Because it is also a "sailor" channel, the Church of Storms has been collecting elf relics for a long time. Some of them were formulated into potions, some were used as sealed items, and were isolated underground. Some of them had less negative effects and were rewarded to Clergy, so it is not surprising that similar things stimulate each other in the "Blood Moon Night" and appear abnormal.
If it's a magical item, then there's nothing wrong with it. If it's a sealed item, the singing can penetrate the isolation, which means it's not simple... Alger withdrew his thoughts, brushed his teeth, and lay down on the bed.
He quickly fell asleep and entered the dreamland.
I don't know how long it took, Alger suddenly became a little awake, vaguely aware that he was dreaming, but he had the active consciousness to look around.
He found that above was the rippling deep blue water, layer upon layer, and the sky could not be seen at all, and in front of him was a gorgeous palace that seemed to be made of coral, tall, magnificent, dark, and gloomy.
Alger subconsciously walked towards the palace and walked into the open gate.
Inside, huge coral pillars stand up, supporting an exaggerated dome, and the walls and top are covered with murals that mainly express the horror of storms.
At the end hundreds of meters away, a seat inlaid with sapphires, emeralds, and round pearls is located on the nine-story steps, which is particularly eye-catching.
Argel looked over, and saw a woman wearing a complicated and simple long dress sitting there. Her hair was black and shiny, tied into a high bun, her outline was soft, her facial features were exquisite, and she had a beauty that would not be prejudiced by the changes of the times. .
The woman had an indifferent expression, pointed ears, and deep brown eyes, looking down at Alger just like that.
In her hand, she was playing with a golden wine glass with intricate patterns.
Just as Alger was about to speak, the woman's eyes were filled with silver light, as if lightning had lit up, she rushed out, piercing the dream!
Huh... Alger turned over and sat up, and subconsciously took a breath, only to feel that the dream just now was both vague and clear.
Among them, the appearance of the woman, the details of the murals and the specific appearance of the coral palace are vague, but the pair of lightning-like eyes and slightly pointed ears are clear.
A high elf? Under the effect of the blood moon, the items left behind by her resonated with my "Ocean Singer" Extraordinary characteristic, so much so that it affected my dreams? While guessing, Alger casually thought about which item it would be.
Because of his low status, limited knowledge of sealed items and magical items, and some knowledge that others do not know, he soon had a goal:
"The Scourge Coshnam?
"The "Book of Natural Disasters" left by him should have been sent to Pasu Island...
"After the debriefing is over, leave here, and then ask Mister Fool for advice to see if the incident just now will leave any bad influence..."
——Alger didn't dare to chant the honorable name of "The Fool" at the headquarters of the Church of Storms.
After dawn, he didn't show any abnormalities. Under the guidance of the servants, he entered a room with a long table and was questioned by the three "Punisher" deacons.
Among the three deacons, only one has dark blue hair, because this is not a certain change after taking the "sailor" pathway potion, but this characteristic will be inherited quite tenaciously, just like the elves, Originally, there were more black hair than blue hair, but in modern times, most of the half-breeds with elf blood have blue hair.
Alger sat down at the head of the long table, and answered the deacons' inquiries in an orderly manner, telling what he had done at sea during this period, what he planned to do, what he had succeeded, and what he had failed.
And this will be compared with the stories of other crew members to prevent anyone from lying.
At the end of the debriefing, the dark blue-haired deacon glanced at Alger and asked in a thick voice:
"Do you know 'Admiral of the Stars' Cattleya?"
Not only did I know... Alger was almost frightened, and after thinking about it, he replied:
"Saw it at the Pirate Convention."
The deacon didn't bother with the question just now, and said bluntly:
"Find a way to get to know her, and investigate Gehrman Sparrow's situation from her."
It turned out to be like this... because Gehrman hunted the "Admiral of Blood"? Alger pretended to be puzzled and asked:
"What did Gehrman Sparrow do again?"
The dark blue-haired deacon said angrily:
"Almost destroyed Bayam! Well, this is not something you should know. In short, you remember that Gehrman Sparrow is a very dangerous guy, and there is a secret evil organization behind it. There are demigods who are hostile to the Rose School!"
Almost destroyed Bayam? The organization has demigods? Hostile to the Rose School? Alger deliberately showed his astonishment without concealing it.
He thought that Gehrman received double the attention because he hunted the "Admiral of Blood" Senor, but who knows that things are much more complicated than he imagined, much more exaggerated!
What exactly did Gehrman Sparrow do? When I pass by Bayam, I have to look for the scene... Also, isn't our Tarot Society's mortal enemy the Aurora Society? Isn't Mister Fool always targeting the "True Creator"? How did it become, no, another Rose School? Alger said a few words to himself in his heart.
As for Tarot having demigods, he was not surprised, and even felt that this was in line with common sense. How could a subordinate of an ancient existence not have demigods?
Moreover, the silent and strange death of "Vice Admiral Hurricane" Qilingus had convinced him that Mister Fool had a high-sequence favored one!
Fortunately, my meeting with Gehrman was secret, otherwise things would be troublesome... Alger listened quietly, without asking any further questions, as usual, accepted the task, got up and left the room.
…………
Backlund North District, outside No. 160 Bocklund Street, servants lined up in two rows to welcome their masters.
Dawn Dantès, with white sideburns and deep blue eyes, was wearing a tuxedo suit, a silk top hat, and a gold inlaid cane. Accompanied by the butler Walter and his personal servant Richardson, he passed among the servants and came to To the entrance of the three-story building.
Waiting here was Tanya, the housekeeper he had chosen this morning.
She was in her early forties, her hair was neatly tied up in a bun, her facial features were ordinary, but her temperament was capable. She wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a black and white long skirt that was different from that of a maid.
Klein learned from information and interviews that this lady was born in the Eastern District and is a believer in the Evernight Goddess. At the age of 15, she chose to receive training from a charity fund of the church and became a qualified maid.
Thanks to more than ten years of hard work, as well as free classes at night schools, she worked from the lowest maid in a wealthy businessman's house to become the head maid. After the other's daughter got married, she followed her as a housekeeper until the family's financial affairs. He had to leave only when there was a crisis, and he is very experienced in family internal management.
The lady had just signed the contract, and after receiving the initial cash of 1,000 pounds from Dwayne Dantès, she argued with the housekeeper Walter whether to buy or rent the carriage.
In her opinion, since Mr. Dantès' goal is to enter the high society and move to the West End, or even Queens, the carriage must be specially customized so as not to lose his status. Before that, rent a high-end carriage for a year, It is a relatively more reasonable choice to wait for things to be hopeful before customizing, which is neither wasteful nor rude.
She convinced Walter, and of course Klein, because it only costs 88 pounds to rent a high-end carriage including horses for a year, and 42 pounds for two wheels.
Sure enough, the one who controls family expenses must be someone who is better at calculating... Klein sighed, smiled and nodded at Tanya, and walked through the gate of the three-story building.
This will be the next stage for the rich man Dawn Dantès.
