Chapter 190 Mushroom and Fish

Looking at the oriel window reflecting the light of the gas wall lamp, the hooded and masked Alger was about to ask about the details of the operation, when he suddenly saw a shadow grow out of the dense darkness beside him, turning into a tall, thin, pale and sick Weary young man.

"Bloodless", Heath Doyle... Alger quickly recognized that this was the second officer of the "Future".

Heath didn't look at him, and directly said to "Admiral of the Stars" Cattleya:

"Captain, they didn't notice anything unusual, they made those mushrooms into a creamy soup, and prepared pan-fried meat and fish as tonight's staple food."

"Very good." Cattleya took off the heavy glasses on the bridge of her nose, and looked at the dining room of the house with her mysterious purple eyes.

Heath Doyle didn't say anything, his figure instantly darkened, and he returned to the shadows, sneaking somewhere.

After listening to the conversation between the two, combined with what Ms. "The Hermit" said before, "The Hanged Man" Alger probably understands what the core elements of tonight's operation are:

mushroom!

Poisonous mushrooms!

Although I don't know what method "Admiral of the Stars" used to invalidate the spiritual intuition of the Extraordinary inside, making it impossible to distinguish between normal mushrooms and highly poisonous mushrooms, Alger believes that in mysticism, this is not impossible.

He hesitated and said:

"Will this lead to the death of Sharf the Craftsman?"

A wild "craftsman" is a very rare thing. Alger doesn't want to lose such a "friend" while there is still room for maneuver. For him, the most ideal solution is to imprison this guy. Let him become the exclusive "craftsman" for himself and the "hermit".

"No." Cattleya shook her head calmly, and explained casually, "Whether it's the information you gave or the details observed by my crew, it's mentioned that Shalf doesn't like fish, and even hates it very much. , which may have something to do with the fishbone stuck in his throat when he was a child."

It was precisely based on this matter that Cattleya finally chose the "mushroom tactic", which can effectively disintegrate the enemy's vital forces and minimize the risks on her side.

——The kind of mushroom that can devour flesh and blood to reproduce in a dark environment was ruled out by the "Admiral of the Stars" from the very beginning, because it can allow extraordinary people with keen inspiration to directly perceive abnormalities, just like facing highly poisonous things Same, in addition, Beyonders who believe in the "primordial moon" have a high probability of having a fairly in-depth understanding of herbs, plants, and fruits. They should be able to identify too dangerous mushrooms just by looking at them.

If you want to hide it from them, you can only do it if the food itself is harmless and mutates through contact with other things.

For this, the kind of mushroom that Frank created before is just right!

If the two conditions of fish and water are not met, that kind of mushroom is a normal mushroom. It will neither poison people to death nor cause diarrhea. It will be digested a little bit, decomposed into different components, and finally excreted from the body. At this point, There is no more fish and water.

For this reason, Cattleya specially asked Frank to redo the experiment that was temporarily abandoned, obtained a batch of mushrooms, and promised to hunt down a "Rose Bishop" of the Aurora Society in the future.

"I hate eating fish..." Argel whispered, feeling that he couldn't keep up with the train of thought of "The Hermit" again.

He clearly asked whether poisonous mushrooms would cause the death of "Artisan" Scharf, but the other party replied that "Artisan" would not die because he didn't like fish, and even hated it very much.

Is there any necessary connection for this? Alger murmured to himself in confusion, but didn't ask.

He remained silent and decided to observe and pay more attention later.

After a while, there was a sudden scream in the house, accompanied by the sound of grunting and vomiting.

"Action." Cattleya gave the order very concisely.

Her figure was instantly transparent, as if it had become a statue made of countless stars.

The statue shattered instantly, and the bright starlight surged little by little, and suddenly came to the door of the house, and got in through the gap.

Pieces of starlight reunited within,

Cattleya's figure appeared.

Then, she heard whining wind and bang.

The door frame shook, the door opened, and the hooded and masked "Hanged Man" Alger entered the target building not much slower than "Admiral Star".

With a glance, he quickly took the situation of the restaurant into his eyes:

"Craftsman" Sharf backed away in horror, away from the long table;

Two men and a woman were lying on the ground, vomiting mushrooms continuously. Between their chests and abdomens, their clothes had been torn, and mushrooms grew one after another.

Sensing someone coming in, these people raised their heads subconsciously, and white hyphae appeared on their faces, clump after clump.

Alger's face covered by the mask twitched involuntarily.

Although he is experienced and knowledgeable, and he is not the kind of Extraordinary who has never seen a horror scene, such a picture still brought him a strong visual and spiritual impact.

"Admiral of the Stars" Cattleya had expected it, but she didn't expect it to be so horrifying. She froze for a moment before pinching her mouth with her right hand and whistling.

Illusory ropes emerged from the ground, coiling like snakes to bind the three "primordial moon" believers.

"Is there a way to stop it?" Cattleya turned her head to the shadow in the corner and asked.

After a while of silence, Heath Doyle's voice came from there:

"Frank said he hasn't tried a way to stop it, so he can only be cremated."

Cremation... Cattleya's eyebrows moved slightly, and she immediately took out a handful of powder from her secret pocket and threw it over.

The powder seemed to have its own vitality, and it accurately fell on the three "primordial moon" believers and the various mushrooms.

Silently, the crimson flames rose up, quietly burning everything they touched.

"Craftsman" Scharf was frightened when he witnessed the change. After someone broke in, he wanted to rely on his magical items to resist, but he quickly recognized it as "Admiral of the Stars" Cattleya. So, he gave up rationally and stood still and waited decisively.

He asked himself that he still had a high value of use, no matter where he went, he would not be killed directly, and "Admiral of the Stars" had never had a bad reputation.

The worst case is to join the Star Pirates... Moreover, this pirate admiral looks better than the portrait on the arrest warrant, and has a completely different temperament... Shalf pulled the wolf tooth necklace and piled up his favourites. Smile, waiting for the intruder to tell the purpose.

Cattleya glanced at him, carefully examined his appearance, and could only be sure that he was a typical Intisian, and she didn't see any resemblance to the Queen.

The pirate general thought about it and said:

"I was introduced by a friend and wanted to ask you to make magical items, but it turned out that you were walking with the believers of the 'primordial moon'.

"The strength of the three of them is not strong, and they can't limit you at all. Why do you still stay here?"

One of Cattleya's main imaginary enemies in this operation is actually the "craftsman" himself, because he can neither kill him nor control him, and he has a lot of magical items that are well matched, so he is definitely a strong enemy. As a result, I didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

Sharf sneered and said:

"They first had a strong person in Bayam, and through some kind of flower fragrance and powder, I was infected with a strange disease and became weaker."

Cattleya looked casually and said:

"You are back to health now, why don't you find a chance to escape?"

Alger watched quietly from the side, and didn't speak, so as not to be betrayed by the voice.

"Craftsman" Sharf laughed twice and said:

"During the period of their control, they told me that as long as I believed in the 'primordial moon', I could go through certain rituals and cure my stubborn illness. I didn't resist the temptation. I tried it, and it really succeeded. I I found the feeling of being a man again..."

Having said that, he stopped abruptly, realizing that he had talked too much and exposed his hidden disease.

Is this too indulgent with women and gradually loses ability? Alger snorted secretly.

Sharf raised his head and looked at the two people on the opposite side. Seeing that no one made a sound of ridicule, he coughed lightly and continued:

"It didn't rely on drugs, it really returned to the state of my youth. After that, I dreamed twice of the moon that looked bloody and very tempting.

"I think, I should indeed become a believer in the 'primordial moon', so I dare not escape."

Cattleya and Alger made eye contact silently, and at the same time sentenced the "craftsman" to death in their hearts:

As long as a person really believes in evil gods and demons or some hidden existence, unless he is willing to continue like this and gradually become fanatical, even if he repents and is protected by the official forces, there will be no problems for a long time, and it may happen in a few years. Strangling myself silently in my sleep!

This is almost impossible to save, unless you are eligible to receive the angelic blessing on the ground at the level of the Pope of the major churches, or accept the isolation of certain sealed items and live permanently underground.

Of course, under similar circumstances, there are many people who did nothing and still lived to old age and died normally, but most of them are ordinary people, who are easily overlooked by evil gods, demons, and hidden beings, and Shalf is A very useful "artisan".

Cattleya no longer mentioned the matter of the "primordial moon" believers. For her, whether the "craftsmen" believe in evil gods is not a big problem. As long as they can communicate, reach deals, and go crazy from time to time, they can cooperate, and other things Not a pirate to worry about.

Instead she said:

"What magical items do you have now? I'll pick some and leave a few for you."

"Craftsman" Sharf was not surprised by such a development. The other party was a pirate, not a policeman. It was perfectly normal to snatch one. He felt that he should sincerely thank him for being able to keep a few pieces for him.

In fact, with his level and items, he might be able to escape successfully if he tried hard, but he didn't have the courage.

"Okay." Sharf first took out a pair of gray-and-white framed glasses from his breast pocket, "Gargoyle glasses, as long as there is eye contact, it can paralyze the opponent's whole body, as if they were petrified. Negative There are two effects, one is that if you wear it and look in the mirror, you will also be paralyzed, and the other is that your body will become heavy and your movements will not be agile enough.”

Isn't this the item I ordered... It turned out to have been successfully made... Looking at Alger, the "craftsman", he couldn't help squinting his eyes.
