Chapter 303 Consultation

"'Laughing Staff'...?"

On the other end of the alchemy hotline, the staff-maker murmured the name, but his tone was quite puzzled.

Jilan chuckled and explained briefly.

The reason why he named his new staff "Laughing" was because of a bird called "Laughing Thrush".

The laughing thrush is camouflaged and deceptive. It is obviously very noisy and looks ferocious, but it is not good at flying. In addition, its white head and brown body are like a double form.

At the same time, the laughing thrush has another name, the noisy thrush.

This can well imply the essence of "the sword hidden in the staff".

Of course, there is another meaning that was not told to the staff-maker, that is, it can also symbolize Jilan himself.

This is like the dual identity of "Blood Owl" and "Rainbow Owl", "Jilan" and "Iros".

"Interesting name."

The staff-maker smiled and praised.

"As its forger, I am happy for it."

Crack.

Jilan transformed the weapon in his hand into a gray cane and stuck it at his side.

Then, he respectfully asked the hotline:

"By the way, old man, I want to ask you a question..."

"Go ahead, young man."

The old man who made the cane was still so enthusiastic and willing to answer all kinds of questions from his juniors.

Jilan said a little, then said in a deep voice:

"I am now a level 3 'Glow' spiritual mystic, and I am trying to sail to the Dream Sea to find the traces of the God's hometown 'Toyalan'..."

"But recently, I have been attacked by sea monsters halfway. Even if I plan to fly over, I will encounter flying monsters in the sky..."

"Excuse me, is there any solution to this situation?"

Hearing this, the old man who made the cane was silent for a few seconds.

"It's a bit incredible..." he said.

"The appearance of those monsters is very abnormal?"

Jilan frowned and asked.

However, the old man denied it:

"No... I mean, your progress is a bit incredible."

On the other end of the phone, the old man who made the cane sighed.

"Do you know? I spent nine years sailing before I met you, and then spent another five years to find the God's Homeland and get the 'God's Homeland Mark'."

"Blood Owl, you are so talented, and your luck is not ordinary... It seems that even fate is favoring you."

"It really makes me feel a little emotional... Even envious."

"Hmm?" Jilan was stunned.

He actually knew the difficulty of level 3 to level 4, but he didn't expect that even a long-lived person like the staff maker took nearly fourteen years to complete the leap and qualitative change.

Listening to the other party's story, Jilan couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he had the honor to intervene in the "Withered Garden", met the three apostles, and got the precious "Emotion Anchor Method" from Miss Peyton.

Otherwise, I am afraid that I will really waste several years, more than ten years or even longer time at this stage before I can find the God's Homeland...

"Have you also encountered sea monsters? Is this inevitable?"

Jilan calmed down and asked again.

The old man who made the staff pondered for a moment and said:

"It is not necessarily... but there are malicious dream creatures in the surrounding areas of the God's Homeland 'Toyalan'."

"It is said that there are two theories."

"First, those dream creatures are created by the negative emotions of high-level mysterious people, falling into the dream sea like projections, and then attracted by the God's Homeland."

"Second, they wandered out from the 'lower' area of ​​the God's Homeland, wandering around, trying to kill all dream visitors who accidentally enter here."

"But no matter which theory it is, it indirectly illustrates a fact, that is, you have entered the surrounding area of ​​the God's Homeland... Congratulations, Blood Owl, you are not far from 'Toyalan'."

The old man who made the staff said in a gentle tone, half narrating and half congratulating.

"As for the solution, sorry, there is no solution for now. If you want to force your way through with brute force, you need to have at least 4th level strength, but the paradox of this matter is that only 3rd level spiritualists will go out to search for the God's Homeland..."

"So, everything depends on luck. If you are lucky, you can avoid the dream creatures in that area and land smoothly."

Hearing this, Jilan's heart sank.

Purely relying on luck?

But he soon came up with an idea...

Although he does not have the strength of 4th level, he is stronger than the average 3rd level. Now he has the "Laughing Staff". If he goes all out, there may be a chance to force his way through.

"Thank you for your answer."

Jilan took a deep breath and thanked him while holding the hotline.

"You're welcome, haha." The old man smiled. "I always have a hunch that maybe soon, you will leave the "Thorn Group" and join the "Midnight Rose" as a formal member."

"I'll buy you a drink then, young man."

Jilan heard the old man's optimism, so he said a few humble words.

Immediately, he hung up the phone.

After putting away the alchemy hotline, Jilan played with the "Laughing Staff" for a while, and then put it into the dimensional space with satisfaction.

'The expenses these days are a bit high, buying the secret teachings of the "makeup artist", paying for the travel expenses of the stork, and the cost of making the staff this time...'

Jilan thought to himself, and counted the funds on him, only 2585 Caesars were left.

He couldn't remember how many times he sighed...

The money is really not enough!

‘I’ll continue to acquire mysterious materials and refining potions to earn some expenses over time. I’m a little unable to make ends meet... Well, I’ll find another opportunity to inform the members of the secret society about the “wick potion” during the gathering in the dream. ’

At this stage, Baiou Chique and the others are only at level 1 and level 2. Taking the "Wick Magic Potion" can greatly improve their practice efficiency.

Of course, it is impossible for Gillan to provide potions for free.

Not to mention that he does not have the capital, even if he does, he hopes to follow the principle of "equivalent exchange" and allow the members of the secret society to exchange for the cultivation resources in their hands through their own efforts.

However, Gillan will give them an "internal price".

The "Wick Potion" sells for 130 Caesars in "Midnight Rose", so in the dream gathering, it only sells for 110 Caesars.

Just slightly above the cost.

…

…

Two more days passed.

During this period, Mawei paid a visit.

Gillan invited her to have afternoon tea at a nearby restaurant and chatted for about two hours.

Maiev took advantage of the situation and talked about some confidential information, saying that the situation in Bosvia had made progress. The committee investigated the important reasons for the local infiltration and the rebellion of the regime and the military.

Gilan was very interested in this, but it was different from what he thought... The culprit was not a federal spy, nor was it the two mysterious forces of the Cult of Heaven and the White Dove Tower.

It is an ancient secret sect called the "Eclipse Society".

This is the first time Ji Lan has heard of this secret sect.

According to Maiev, the "Solar Eclipse Society" is extremely hidden. The Investigative Committee also spent a lot of money, even sacrificing several members, to discover this important information.

The esoteric sect first appeared in the early Middle Ages and was active throughout the ages. It was not until the establishment of the Bremen Empire that it slowly disappeared...

Recently, for some unknown reason, it suddenly resurfaced in Bosvia. And as soon as he appeared, he made a big move.

I heard that Chairman Parra is quite troubled by this.

"Members of the 'Eclipse Society' are die-hards of evil worship. They serve an ancient evil god named 'Sulfur Lord' and regard the devil as a partner. They are led by the evil god's messenger 'Windmill Cat' Pal Solomon. "

These were Maiev's exact words at that time.

"The purpose of this secret sect is to cause disaster at all costs, let the sulfur breath of hell replace the air of the world, and welcome the arrival of the 'Sulfur Lord' to rule the world."

After hearing this, Ji Lan was stunned for a moment.

First of all, he felt that this person from the "Solar Eclipse Society" seemed to be mentally ill, so how could he have such an outrageous belief.

Secondly, he was surprised by the two familiar names of "Brimstone Male" and "Windmill Cat".

The "Windmill Cat" has appeared in "The Great Plague #2" and the "Human Will" series of films. Through these two secret histories, Gillan clearly knows that it has lived from the Middle Ages to the present...

Moreover, as the messenger of the evil god, he spread the plague and swallowed the biological sister of January Sichen "Flood" Lilia Enge.

It can be said that this big golden cat has done all kinds of bad things.

Presumably "Torrent" has always wanted to realize it offline.

So much so that within the "Machinists' Union", they have never stopped exploring Pal's traces.

This time the "Eclipse Society" was discovered by the committee, the "Mechanical Union" must have been mobilized and ready to dispatch executive agencies at any time to assist the empire in hunting down and cleaning up the secret sect.

Maiev once mentioned that there are three old guys in the "Mechanicus". Together, they can conduct large-scale surveillance. The members of the "Eclipse Society" may be doomed!

…

…

The night of November 27th.

As usual, Jilan fell into a dream and came to the spiritual kingdom.

He took this opportunity to inform everyone in the secret society about the "wick potion", which aroused their interest.

It also aroused their strong motivation to make money.

As the thumb of the "Hand of Dawn", Gillan very generously presented a "wick potion" to everyone on the spot. Letting them try the medicine is also considered as a secret society benefit.

The black snipe, white gull, red bird and blue stork were all surprised and thanked them repeatedly.

In the subsequent information exchange session, Cang Stork said that he had successfully contacted the "Recording Meeting" headquarters and easily joined the meeting with his original silver card as the branch host and Ms. Crow's token.

And because of his rich movie-watching experience and the strength of a Level 2 Mystic, he successively passed the "Screening Roundtable" review and directly became a "Two-Star Film Critic".

All goes well.

"Hongxiao, there is good news."

The stork sat on the seat of the index finger stone pillar and smiled at Jilan.

"As soon as I joined the Recording Society's 'Headquarters', I was assigned the task of viewing a newly-introduced real film... Are you interested?"

Hearing this, Ji Lan raised his eyebrows and said:

"certainly!"

He is in urgent need of mysterious energy now. He didn't expect that Cang Stork would have good news so soon...

"Tell me about the actual film."

"Well...it's the first in a series called Dark Times #1."

The stork smiled.

"It just so happens that we've all seen its sequel... The Great Plague #2!"
