Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 97 June Comes

In the dark night, in the green vine forest, Klein closed his eyes, listening to the movement that seemed to come from the sky.

His body and mind were peaceful and peaceful, but he felt subtle depression and sadness growing and reverberating.

After an unknown amount of time, the melodious melody finally disappeared, and the gentle night wind blew slowly among the hanging pea vines.

Klein sighed silently, opened his eyes, and looked up, only to see that "Queen of Mysteries" Bernadette was handing over the "human skull" with holes in her hand to the "servant" whose upper body was lower.

"Okay." Bernadette's soft and flat voice followed.

"Thank you for your help." Klein saluted again, and manipulated "Wraith" Senor to walk back to him.

At this time, the pea vines shrunk up and gradually faded, and the green forest quickly disappeared.

Klein and Senior landed at the entrance of the bridge at the same time, and there was no one around, except that there was a group of bridge guard soldiers not far away facing this side, no different from before.

The fairytale scene just now seemed to be just a hallucination.

It wasn't until this time that Klein had the time to look at his secret puppet, and found that he looked more like a dead man than before, with a pale face, a cold breath, and a distinctly eerie feeling.

This should be the result of a one-time large dose of erosion... If it is only on duty at the Chanis Gate, once or twice a week, one day at a time, it should not be so serious, it is impossible to be unbearable for two months... If this is the case, even if It is the Orthodox Church, and it cannot afford such a loss... It is estimated that the normal internal guards can survive for several years, even ten years, but it is easy to change in the middle and easily lose control... Sigh, when they choose to become the internal guards, they should have already Knowing that there would be such an ending... Klein sighed for a while, causing the "Wraith" Senor to project himself onto the gold coin in the iron cigarette case.

Immediately afterwards, he used "Travel" continuously, first went around the sea, picked out food for "Squirming Hunger", and then returned to the master bedroom bathroom at 160 Berklund Street.

…………

On June 5th, Sunday, inside the castle of the Hall family.

Audrey was sitting at the desk, admiring the magical item she had just harvested.

Its shape is a long black tulle glove that reaches to the elbow, as if it came from the royal family, and it has a noble and elegant temperament.

This stems from the Extraordinary characteristic of the "Chaos Tutor" sold by "The World" Gehrman Sparrow,

It is made by "craftsmen" for a certain period of time.

Audrey asked her father, Earl Hall, for instructions beforehand, and got the answer "You can buy it and use it yourself, it's good to be filial", so she specifically told Mr. "The Hanged Man" to make the "craftsman" into a lady. Items that can be carried with you.

And this also made her wonder whether her father had better magical items, or whether the Church of the Goddess provided a fairly high standard of protection.

According to "The Hanged Man", this tulle glove can give the wearer several extraordinary effects:

One is to improve majesty and physique, so that the surrounding creatures will unconsciously lower their figures and want to obey;

The second is to obtain the ability to "distort" the target's language, actions and intentions, so as to construct certain rules that are beneficial to itself;

The third is to use symbolic "bribery" to make the target have a strong favorable impression, it is difficult to show hostile intentions, and even unwilling to fight with the wearer. If the conditions are right, the recipient of the bribe has a very small probability of attacking his companions in the opposite direction. Audrey heard from Mister "World" that this is a kind of 'bribe' extraordinary ability, called "bribe charm";

The fourth is to make the locked target or a certain area around it appear "chaotic", making it difficult for the attack to fall on yourself, and making it easy for the enemy to "choose" mistakes.

Audrey is very satisfied with these effects, but what annoys her is that because the "artisan" itself is not high enough, the Sequence 5 magical items produced have quite a negative impact:

First, it will gradually darken the wearer's psychology, always want to take shortcuts, use conspiracy, and do things by disgraceful means, and second, after wearing it for more than 3 minutes, the user will also fall into a state of chaos. Audrey tried After a while, I ended up making a mistake unknowingly in the shower.

Originally, the normal process was to let the maid turn on the hot water, adjust the temperature, then take off her clothes, enter the bathtub, and finally finish cleaning, but Audrey went into the bathtub first, then put cold water in, and waited until the clothes were soaked before remembering. Take it off.

The only thing she was lucky about was that she finally controlled herself and didn't ask the maid to come in and witness her own embarrassment.

It makes me look like a curly baboon! Audrey thought a little bit angrily.

For the first negative impact, she thinks it is acceptable, because she is a "psychiatrist" who can often examine herself and eliminate some dark thoughts, and there is Susie who provides help from the perspective of a bystander, but the second is A bit unbearable.

The second negative effect is a big problem. You can only carry it with you first, and then wear it at critical moments. Ah, yes, I still have "lie", which can amplify my emotions. When combined with this glove, it will make my heart feel better. The darkness is very serious, and I may not be able to resist it now... Audrey turned her green eyes, thinking about the solution.

Just then, she heard a knock on the door.

Her personal maid Anne said outside:

"Miss, the Earl has something to look for you."

Audrey left the black tulle glove on the table, got up directly, came to the door, and opened the door.

Earl Hall, who didn't wear a coat at home, just a shirt and a vest, stroked his beautiful mustache and said with a smile:

"Aren't you ready yet? I'll be returning to Backlund later.

"Tomorrow night is your 18th birthday party."

While speaking, Earl Hall glanced at the maid Anne and the others, and made them withdraw a certain distance consciously.

"Hey, it's the annual social season again." Audrey nodded pretending to be mature. (Note 1)

Earl Hall looked at his daughter and asked with a smile:

"Have you figured out how to use that item?"

Audrey smiled and said:

"certainly.

"I'm going to fold it up and put it in a little bag for Susie to carry."

In this way, because Susie is not wearing or using it, Susie will not appear to be in a state of confusion, and her psychological dark problem can be appeased and treated by Audrey. More importantly, without the increase of "lie", Su Xi, who is also a "psychiatrist" herself, can also examine herself and adjust her mental state from time to time.

Earl Hall was stunned for a moment, then smiled and praised:

"Smart way."

Audrey was proud for a while, but she said quite reservedly on the surface:

"I'm going to call it 'Hand of Fear'.

"Dear Earl, thank you for your birthday present~"

And after a few more days, I can concoct the potion and try to get promoted! Audrey happily added in her heart.

…………

Sunday night, 160 Berklund Street.

Klein stood on the balcony, looked at the street scene outside through the gap in the curtain, and felt a little nervous uncontrollably.

If there were no accidents, he would start stealing the Antigonus family notes later.

After relying on the help of "Queen of Mysteries" Bernadette to make his secret puppet show a corrupted state, and to find out the rotation rules of the internal guards through frequent church prayers, listening to scriptures, and donations, Klein stole the plans. There is only one thing left to prepare.

That's how to quietly and unnoticed replace the target!

According to Klein's understanding, those internal guards will go underground as soon as the sun rises. At this time, the church has not yet opened, and if they want to sneak in directly, they must risk being discovered by a demigod like the archbishop of Backlund. , it can be said that there is basically no possibility of success.

Therefore, Klein's plan is to lurk into the church one day in advance and wait patiently for the opportunity.

This undoubtedly requires enough camouflage, but it is not difficult for the "faceless man".

After observing for a period of time, Klein discovered that the church also held a high mass on Sunday night, because Sunday and night are both symbols of the goddess.

After the high mass, the servants will be busy for a while, cleaning up the garbage outside.

Klein's plan was to seize this opportunity, quietly stun a servant, enter the church disguised as him, and sleep in the servant's room.

For this reason, he had already bought a suitable dose of sleeping potion from Emlyn the Moon in advance and paid a full 5 pounds.

Huh... After a few minutes, Klein exhaled slowly, drew the curtains, walked back into the room, took four steps backwards, and entered above the gray mist.

Sitting in the seat belonging to "The Fool", he meditated for nearly a minute, took out a pen and paper, and wrote down the divination statement:

"It's dangerous to steal the Antigonus family notes this time."

After putting away the dark red round-bellied pen, Klein removed the pendulum from his left wrist cuff, held the silver chain with his left hand, and let the citrine pendant hang on the paper, almost touching it.

He entered meditation, closed his eyes, and silently recited the divination sentence. After seven times in a row, he slowly opened his eyes and saw the pendulum rotating clockwise, with a normal amplitude and a normal speed.

It's dangerous, but it's within the normal range... Klein quickly interpreted it.

He was actually a little worried about whether this was disturbed by someone again, just like what the "** mother tree" once did, but this cannot be confirmed, let alone falsified.

Therefore, when the divination results, plans and preparations all meet the necessary conditions, Klein has already made a decision.

He looked at the citrine pendant that gradually stopped turning, and said in a low voice in his mother tongue:

"The arrow is on the string and has to be fired."

Before he finished speaking, Klein let his spirituality wrap himself, simulating the feeling of falling, and returned to the real world.

This time, he plans to carry only three items with him, one is "Squirming Hunger", the second is "Seignor Gold Coin", and the third is "Azik Copper Whistle". Put it in an iron cigarette box, and use "paper angel" and "spiritual wall" to provide double cover.

As for the rest of the things, there is a high probability that they won't pass through the Chanis gate, which is likely to cause a change in the core of the seal, so Klein threw them and the cash all over the gray fog, and was ready to flee immediately if something went wrong.

That is, the 3% shares of the Coim Company bought for 12,800 pounds can only be bound to the identity of Dwayne Dantès... Klein quickly restrained his thoughts, took a mirror, and put it on the pillow.

Then, he drew the mysterious symbol that summoned the "magic mirror" Arrods.

Note 1: The social season in London in history is from December to June after Christmas, and when setting this book, we took into account the arrangement of some plots and the fact that the main belief of the upper class in Loen is "The Lord of Storms". The time to discuss national affairs is placed in the storm-prone months from June to September, and the social season will naturally become from June to New Year. Of course, on the weekends of autumn and winter, the nobles will definitely go to the countryside to hunt foxes. Don’t get confused Well, don't answer the other way around when someone asks about the London social season.
