Start with the Readers Chapter 87: Leonard on the edge
"Hermo Huine?
"Turani von Hermoschuin? The greatest scientist, mathematician, mechanic, father of the second-generation difference engine after Emperor Russell the Great?"
Klein is no stranger to this name. The major espionage case he was involved in in Backlund more than half a year ago was because of a manuscript written by this person. In the end, it was Mr. "Tower" who assassinated Ambassador Intis. Let him escape successfully.
This great scientist fell into the hands of the "Rose School of Thought" before, but now he escaped?
"That's right, it's that Hermoschuin." "Pale Admiral" Maria nodded with a serious expression, "We hope to hunt Senor, and we also have the intention to rescue this great scientist."
Indeed, if the Rose School represented by the "Admiral of Blood" controls Hermoschuin, it would not be very good... After all, except for the temperance faction that was suppressed internally, the degree of evil they believe in the "Mother Tree of Desire" No lower than the Aurora Society, let them master the most advanced technology, I am afraid it will bring disaster...
Klein thought for a moment, looked at the two female pirates in front of him, and did not respond directly to Maria's previous invitation, but instead said:
"I have a few questions."
After giving him a serious look, Maria nodded slightly and said:
"Okay."
"First, since Senior is on Blue Mountain Island, why didn't he report it directly to the authorities?" Klein asked.
Although he lacks a sufficient sense of belonging to the Loen Kingdom, Loen is still more reliable than the "Rose School of Thought".
Reporting... Maria and Edwina Qiqi were stunned for a second, as if they hadn't thought about such an operation at all.
In the end, "Pale Admiral" said with wandering eyes: "We also don't want that great scientist to serve Ruen..."
So it turns out that behind "Admiral Pale" is the royal faction of the "Spiritual Religion", and "Vice General Bingshan" is supported by the "Church of Knowledge and Wisdom", so naturally they don't want Ruen to benefit.
Klein was stunned, but on the surface he asked calmly again: "Second, why is it scheduled for next Tuesday?"
"This is Edwina's 'prophecy'... If you act too early, you won't be able to solve Senor; if you act too late, it will be very dangerous...
"In addition, the demigod I invited will not arrive until next Tuesday." Maria replied without any reservations.
Demigod... In other words, there are also high-sequence powerhouses on the side of "Admiral of Blood"?
If it wasn't for his "personality" being a crazy adventurer and knowing a few demigods, Klein would have turned around and left.
As if seeing his hesitation, "Vice Admiral Iceberg" Edwina's eyes, which were as clear as spring water, rolled slightly, and added: "At that time, I will also invite a demigod over...well, It's the one you know."
The only demigod you and I know... is Abner, right?
For some reason, when he heard that Mr. "Tower" would also come, Klein was immediately relieved. After thinking about it, he asked the last question:
"How many strong people are there around Senor?"
"The 'Rose School' attaches great importance to Hermoschine...I don't know the details, but what is certain is that there will be no less than two demigods. Besides, there are three Sequence 5... ..."
Speaking of which, Edwina solemnly exhorted:
"By the way, among the demigods around Senor, there is a Sequence 3 'Whisperer'. After leaving the 'Golden Dream', try not to think about how to deal with him."
In other words, it is possible on the "Golden Dream"? That's right, I heard from Abner that the interception of the "Undead King"'s squadron was planned by Edwina.
If she didn't have the ability to hide in this area, she might have been discovered by the "Death" a long time ago.
At least two demigods... How could the "Rose School of thought" suddenly attach so much importance to a scientist? And with my joining, will it be more dangerous... After all, "Mother Tree of Desire" seems to be very interested in me.
However, the key to this matter still lies in "Tower". As long as he comes, the problem should not be big, after all, there are so many behind him...
Well, Ms. Messenger and Sharon should also be interested in the plan to deal with the indulgent faction of the "Rose School of Thought". By then, we will have at least four demigods on our side, and we will not lose to the other party.
Moreover, the identity of "Dwayne Dantès" will be handed over to the captain and Ms. Daly next Monday, so Sharon can come to Bayam once...
Thinking of this, Klein nodded lightly and said:
"If it's this level, then I can participate."
He didn't say to think about it first and go back to determine the degree of danger, because after all, this matter will only start next Tuesday, and when something goes wrong with his divination, he can stop it as a participant.
What's more, he was actually the first to put forward the idea of hunting the "Admiral of Blood".
Hearing that, the delicate-looking but slightly rigid "Pale Admiral" Maria nodded slightly and said, "Then, let's meet outside the woods in the western outskirts of Bayam on Tuesday morning..."
As she spoke, she emphasized again, "Try not to think about this matter in the past few days."
Is this why you guys have done so little detailed planning? The more detailed the plan, the higher the possibility of being known?
Klein nodded thoughtfully.
…
Conston City, inside a hotel on Playa Street.
Fors, who had combed her hair well, looked at Abner beside her, and said in disbelief, "You told me so much about 'gluttony' before, because you wanted to eat the sealed item I gave him ?”
"To be precise, it is 'bait'. You are an apprentice of the Abraham family, and you still have the full moon curse of Mr. 'Gate' on your body. I only need to make a little 'misleading' disguise on you, and I can make that person Mr. 'Gluttony' made a misjudgment, and then approached him to find out his details..." Abner explained with a smile, "That gentleman attaches great importance to the blood descendants of the big man, and he even asked Valentine to pay attention. "
"But isn't this very dangerous?" Forsi was unmoved, feeling that this matter was very unreliable.
"It's okay, I will replace you halfway, and I won't let you really face him." Abner said confidently, as if he didn't think of a half-life who had lived at least five hundred years. God sees it.
But the fact is true, after all, he carries an angel clone with him.
"But this matter has nothing to do with me, why should I help you?" Forsi asked intentionally. As a best-selling author with romance as her core, she still knows how to fight for her own interests.
"After killing Louis Wayne, I can give you his 'traveler' feature." Abner thought for a while, and added according to "Salted Fish"'s preference, "In addition, you owe Leon's manuscript, I can decide to help you avoid it."
Fors almost agreed immediately after hearing this, but she swallowed her words and decided to be a little more reserved. After all, she is not the kind of person who deliberately "delays drafts". The reason why she often fails to finish , simply because there is no inspiration.
"As a friend, don't tell me you won't give me the characteristics of Louis Wayne if I don't promise to be a 'bait' once?" Fors asked deliberately.
Seeing and asking, Abner glanced at her, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and said with a smile: "As a 'friend', of course I can give it to you...but have you thought about the price you will pay for it?"
When Forsi saw this familiar smile and heard this familiar question, her face froze immediately, then she gave a dry laugh, and asked instead:
"When am I going to make this bait?"
"Next Wednesday at eight o'clock."
…
On Saturday, at five o'clock in the afternoon, the ball held by the newly promoted Viscount Abner Braine at his mansion began as scheduled.
Although the Scudders lacked experience in aristocratic etiquette, under Abner's guidance, they hired a professional housekeeper, Mr. Ryback, which made the ball more orderly.
——The Scudders are actually "clergymen" sent by the "Mother Earth Church" to assist Abner. They are not professional housekeepers, but their duty is to take care of the house and take care of Abner's life .
The 48-year-old Mr. Ryback used to serve the Negan family, serving as a deputy butler and assistant to the butler for a long time. Later, in a transaction, he became the butler of Baron Syndras~IndoMTL.com~Ni Not long after Duke Root was assassinated, Mr. Ryback, whose service period expired, failed to get a new contract from Mr. Baron, and lost his job.
He is a shallow follower of the Lord of Storms, but he is not irritable, and his political inclination is the Conservative Party...
After interviewing him a few days ago, Abner finally hired him with an annual salary of 150 gold pounds, and planned to take him to the territory of Beldan in the future to deal with some trivial matters.
Of course, in the eyes of others, he hired a housekeeper with such a background, and he also meant to show his favor to the "conservatives"... Although Abner didn't think so much.
But the benefits of this misunderstanding have already appeared. For example, Emma's father, Viscount Horatio, who has been idle at home for the past six months, and Emma's mother, who is also the sister of Duke Negan, Mrs. Norma, therefore accepted Invited, and took their daughter to the new viscount's ball.
The moment Emma stepped into the ballroom, Leonard Mitchell, who also accepted the invitation to eat and drink, suddenly sat up straight.
