Chapter 36 "Conversations" Between Smart People
Asked Mister Fool for help? Can it still be like this? "The Hermit" Cattleya was stunned.
She doesn't doubt Mister Fool's character and ability. After receiving the punishment and discovering that his beloved Gehrman Sparrow is getting more and more powerful, she has no doubts about this matter, even When Mr. "Fool" used ancient items to pull her here and let her avoid the knowledge of chasing, she already understood that the other party was at least the existence of "hidden sage" and "primordial moon", but for various reasons , unable to directly interfere with the real world, suspected of being an ancient god in the recovery process.
What surprised her about the words of "Moon" was that Mister Fool would actually provide effective and substantive help to members of the Tarot Society, rather than teaching knowledge or easily pulling in.
On the one hand, this shows that I can also directly ask Mister Fool for help in a critical moment... This is more exaggerated than any ceremony... On the other hand, it vaguely reveals that Mister Fool's recovery process is faster than I imagined... ..."The Hermit" Cattleya flashed many thoughts in an instant.
"Justice" Audrey, "Sun" Derrick, and the others were not surprised by this. They had all prayed for Mister Fool's help more or less, and had seen the angels under this great existence.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, "Moon" Emlyn shrank his head, raised his chin and said:
"I got paid.
"This is an equivalent exchange!"
Equivalent exchange... The immediate response and effective feedback of a great being are simply priceless! "The Hermit" Cattleya couldn't help retorting in her heart.
The reason why she didn't say it directly is that she also hopes to have such an "equivalent exchange" opportunity in the future, and this often means that she will have one more life than others!
"Magician" Fors expressed incomprehension to Mr. "Moon"'s deliberate emphasis on equivalent exchange. Here, those who have prayed for help from Mr. "Fool" have provided corresponding rewards!
Mr. "Moon" is really a face-saving person, no, blood race... Audrey "Justice" seriously commented on "Moon" Emlyn's emotional changes in a short period of time.
The communication continued, and this Tarot meeting came to an end little by little.
Back in the City of Silver, Derrick the "Sun" first carefully memorized the advantages and disadvantages of the "notary" that Mr. "The Hanged Man" said, and then went to the twin towers in the north of the city again, preparing to pick out magical items.
He didn't do this before, because he was not in a stable state after he was promoted, and he was worried that touching magical items would cause loss of control.
Inside the round tower, Derrick Berg, who had gone through the process, put forward his needs, saw the selected items one by one, and obtained the corresponding information files.
After careful reading and observation, he quickly narrowed it down to one of two choices:
One is "Kaldi's Ring". It looks simple and iron-black, engraved with dark and complicated patterns. It belongs to the legacy of a resident of the City of Silver a long time ago. It can help the wearer deter the target and cause the opponent to stagnate to a certain extent , can also make normal humans temporarily lose their minds, or awaken the hidden warmth and memory of crazy monsters, making them fall into a state of self-confusion in a short period of time, and no longer attack;
The other is "Thunder God's Roar", which was obtained from a ruined city-state. It is quite heavy and looks like a giant hammer. In the battle, it made a sound that made the enemy panic and confused, just like Thor came to the ground and was roaring uninterruptedly. Every blow of it was intensely destructive, and the terrible lightning was never absent.
The negative effect of "Kardi's Ring" is that the wearer will unknowingly produce another "self", so he must receive regular "psychoanalyst" treatment. If he misses one or two times in the middle, the problem will become extremely serious. Seriously, it is difficult to heal, and the struggle between the two selves will eventually lead to loss of control.
Relatively speaking, "Thor's Roar" does not have such a big hidden danger, it just makes the user accumulate a little bit of irritability,
As long as this is vented regularly, there is no problem. However, it also has a negative effect, that is, the person who holds it has a 100% probability of being attacked by a terrifying monster in the dark depths in a dark environment!
The probability of being attacked is 100%... Seeing this data, Derrick felt sad, because it meant that many residents of the City of Silver had disappeared due to this reason.
They are all former owners of "Thor's Roar"!
Which one should I choose? Creating another "self" is a terrible thing. Miss "Justice" seems to have mentioned that this is called split personality... "Thunder God's Roar" not only has the ability to affect the enemy's state, but also has a very strong attack power... mine The "Hurricane Axe" should be destroyed earlier than expected because it is used too frequently... I can emit light myself, so I don't have to worry too much about the absolute darkness... Derrick thought for a while, and pointed his finger at the giant blue monster. hammer:
"I want 'Thor's Roar.'"

No. 160 Boklund Street, just as Klein walked out of the master bedroom, he saw the butler Walter waiting outside, holding a few invitation cards:
"Sir, there are three invitations this Monday, afternoon tea on Wednesday, literary salon on Friday, and dinner on Saturday. They are from..."
After listening with a gentle expression, Klein smiled and said:
"Tell these friendly invitees that I will attend."
"Okay, sir." Walter saluted and left the third floor.
Watching his back disappear at the entrance of the stairs, Klein couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart:
One more week of such invitations, and it's time for me to invite the surrounding neighbors to a dance or dinner...
Only by inviting me back and forth a few times can I really enter their circle, be introduced to higher-level big shots by them, and enter different clubs...
Hehe, such a referral must be based on sufficient financial resources, a person who has no use value will not get a referral...
Interacting in the upper class is really troublesome. It will take at least a month before I can get in touch with the fringes of the Great Smog Incident in Backlund... The church is better. As long as there are enough donations and enough piety, you can enter freely. Listening to the bishop's sermon, of course, the premise is that you can pass the review...
If it goes well, maybe within a month, I will be able to grasp the shift schedule of the internal guards and find an opportunity to enter the Chanis Gate...
Klein withdrew his thoughts, and ordered Richardson, the valet next to him, to bring over his coat, hat, and cane.
According to the arrangement, he was going to see the most popular drama "The Ring of the Betrayer" at the Kingdom Theater.
This is not purely for entertainment, only if he understands popular dramas, famous music, and trendy novels, he can have topics to chat with others at various parties in the upper class.
A popular gentleman must be very tiring in private, one minute on stage, ten years off stage... This kind of social gathering is really tiring... While Klein complained, he let Richardson Put on the coat for yourself, then take a high-end carriage to the Kingdom Theater in the West End, sit in a luxurious box and enjoy the play "The Ring of the Betrayer".
"Different from movies and TV dramas, drama performances are more exaggerated and forceful, well, this is determined by the performance environment...
"The story is not bad, but why does it seem familiar to me, and won't tell me that the original author is Emperor Roselle...
"These few should be well-known theater actors. They have been mentioned in the newspapers. It is said that they are very popular. They feel a bit like stars in the Earth Internet era...
"As long as you attend more gatherings of the upper class, you will definitely have a chance to meet them..." Klein habitually complained in his heart while watching the drama performance.
…………
Jorwood, a large theater box office.
Finally, Melissa took out banknotes and copper coins, pushed them into the window and said:
""The Betrayer's Ring", Sunday afternoon at three o'clock, two tickets."
…………
After watching "The Betrayer's Ring", Klein got into his carriage, drank some red tea, and took the various evening papers that Richardson had bought.
He first turned to the drama review section, found some professional comments, compared them with his own viewing experience, and gradually summed up a personal and in-depth experience.
Well, at least I can fool those gentlemen and wives... Klein leisurely flipped through the newspaper after finishing his "homework", and found a piece of news by accident:
"10% of the shares in Backlund Bicycle Company have been sold, please don't bother me any more!"
Already finalized? Mr. Essinger's publication of this news means that he has received the money... Klein was overjoyed at first, and then frowned slightly.
His gaze stayed on the last exclamation mark!
The content of the message was indeed what he had agreed with Isengard Stanton in advance, but he always felt that the exclamation point at the end was a bit harsh.
"The emotion contained in this sentence obviously does not need an exclamation point...Mr. Essinger is a person who pays great attention to details, and it is impossible for the newspaper office to play freely...He deliberately used this exclamation point. What message is he conveying?
"Is he warning you?" Klein suddenly realized something while pondering.
The 10% shares of Backlund Bicycle Company sold by Isengard Stanton obviously came from Sherlock Moriarty, and considering the moral character of the former, it is impossible to sell it for no reason, which shows to some extent that Sherlock Moriarty or his agent has returned to Backlund!
Therefore, a certain faction of the royal family involved in the Great Smog incident in Backlund was keenly aware of the situation and began to monitor Detective Isengard Stanton, in order to directly capture the target who went to collect the cash!
How should I get the money... Klein seemed to be looking at the newspaper naturally, thinking about this serious question seriously.
PS: Change first and then change, take a chapter off in the afternoon, the curly-haired baboon is stuck again, it is really bald to write daily and foreshadowing in an interesting and attractive way.
