A knight who understands the giant dragon language, and even uses giant dragon as the main stage of growth ... No wonder "Psychology Alchemy Union" wants to get his notebook of legacy ... Audrey suddenly converges his thoughts, and is happy and serious with Mitchell Dewit communicated those grammatical problems.
Soon, they ended the discussion on this notebook, and Mitchell started the subsequent collections of introduction.
The time passed by one minute and one second, and the visit gradually came to an end. Audrey originally planned to make a purchase request next time, making things less clear-cut, but the friendly and kind atmosphere, the natural nature of the language, made her keenly feel that this It was an opportunity, so with the ability of Lies necklace, my cheeks were stained with embarrassing shame:
"Mr. Dewit, the Sauron royal helmet from the White Rose War is a good commemoration of my ancestors. item, I venture to ask if I can buy it from you? There is also the Twenty Years’ War During the notebook period, because I admire the knight who insists on Sunya Island, I also want to own it.
"I know this is a polite request, but I hope you can understand my mood, of course, you have the right to refuse."
Hidden eye movements, she dodges, half-consciously and half-truthfully makes her appear guilty and timid.
Mitchell turned away from his eyes subconsciously in a moment, and said quietly:
"I am a collector and I will not sell my collection."
His tone and words are not firm enough ... The data collected before shows that he is a gentleman who pays great attention to reputation. It may be unacceptable for him to buy his collections directly with money ... "Psychology Alchemy Union" Not to find someone else to complete this task, on the one hand, it just happened to accumulate contributions for me, on the other hand, it should be the attitude of Associate Professor Gu Ji in this respect ... it must be changed in another way ... Audrey has been carefully thought out before visiting here The harvested intelligence has formulated different plans. After a little thinking, the topic is diverted and asked instead:
"Mr. Dewit, I heard that you are seeking to establish an antiquities research institute within Stoen University?"
"Yes, this is my goal in recent years." Mitchell looked back at Audrey and replied frankly.
Audrey outlined a light smile and said:
"I am very interested in the research in this area and I respect you very much. I hope to see you reach your wish.
"Well, I want to donate £ 1,000 in cash to the Stoen University, your college, 2000 acres of land nearby, and a manor with a good income to initially establish a public welfare fund for the collection and protection of antiquities, I know this is not enough, but I will lobby the ladies and gentlemen I know to make some contributions. (Note 1)
"Mr. Dewit, you are the most professional antiquarian collection and researcher I know. Are you willing to take charge of this charity fund?"
The 2000 acres of land near the university, which is worth almost 6000 pounds, plus the manor and cash, Miss Audrey donated nearly 10.000 pounds ... With such a public welfare fund for the collection and protection of antiquities, the difficulty of applying for my institute Reduced to the lowest ... Mitchell was silent for a few seconds, showing a sincere smile, solemnly saluted:
"Honorable lady, your attention to academics has moved me. Its radiance is comparable to your beauty and your cultivation. I think I have no reason to refuse your invitation.
"I have copied the content of the notebook, and I will deliver it and the helmet to your mansion tonight, this is a gift from a sincere friend."
Success! Audrey was very happy in his heart, just want to praise himself, but the surface was reserved and calm, no rude behavior.
"This is my honor." She said sincerely.
Although the two collections are definitely not worth 10.000, she will not lose anything.
In her plan, this proposal contains three goals and three gains!
The first goal is naturally to get item, complete the commission, and successfully obtain Hypnotist magical medicine formula from "Psychology Alchemy Union".
The second is to donate academic research to protect the ancient item, maintain and enhance their reputation, status and image. This is what most nobles and most wealthy people are doing, even if there is no donation today, Audrey every year It will also contribute 3,000 pounds or more to various charitable organizations, so she believes that her father Earl Hall will not prevent her from doing similar treatment for a small amount of real estate under her name.
The third point is that a foundation dedicated to the collection and protection of antiquities is easy to access some valuable historical data and mysterious item. Audrey does not need to come forward in person, just sitting at home, it is possible to gain something for itself Helping things is equivalent to using the 10.000 pound to pry up more funds and build up your own "power".
Of course, if Mitchell Dewit does not accept this exchange, she has other plans: Wang Guogao school board has Hall Family people and noble friends she knows, as long as the Associate Professor has corresponding needs, she will definitely find it Way to satisfy him.
However, Audrey does not like this way too much, and I always feel that it is not glorious enough, which seems to damage the public interest.
After talking about the matter, Audrey stayed for a while, chatting for about a quarter of an hour, so that the end of the matter did not seem abrupt.
Next, she left the Mitchell home and drove back to the villa of Hall Family in Stoen city.
More than eight o'clock in the evening, she received the helmet of the Sauron royal family and the notebook during the Twenty Years' War.
Audrey put on white gauze gloves, sat at the desk with great interest, put the helmet aside, and carefully read the contents of notebook.
She found that the things recorded above were all fragmentary. The early period was mainly about how the knight stationed on the ancient elven island learned how to brew Sunya blood wine, how to chase the ladies around, how to pass the boring time, and the middle and late period entered 20 years During the war, the main focus was on cursing fusacian, complaining about companions, and considering sticking to the plan. It ended after Sunya Island was lost for the first time.
"Except that the grammar has the habit of approximating giant dragon, there is no big problem, and no clues are hidden ..." Audrey frowned slightly and closed notebook.
Just now, she used mysticism method to check, but still no gain.
This makes her not want to waste time, and is ready to hand it over to "Psychology Alchemy Union".
She thought she had a new idea suddenly when thinking about electricity:
"Mister Fool, Mr. Hanged Man, always consider issues from different aspects of things and give suggestions. Should I learn?
"Hmm ... Let ’s think about it from another angle. Let ’s first assume that the content of notebook is no problem. What does Psychology Alchemy Union pursue is itself?
“What ’s special about it? I did n’t find it just now ... it belongs to a knight who is accustomed to using giant dragon, what must the knight experience ... divination, yes, divination! Maybe you can use the divination way , With the help of this notebook, find the knight's last whereabouts or initial traces, and this may be related to a giant dragon!
"Since it is giant dragon, there is no small possibility that it is giant dragon, it is the representative of Audience path, and the clues related to it are indeed worthy of‘ Psychology Alchemy Union ’...
"Audrey, this idea is very good!"
The pupils of Audrey shines brightly, and it seems to hide obvious brilliance.
She couldn't help but turned her head to look at the golden retriever dog crouching next to it.
Susie glanced at the owner, and said with a loud voice:
"Audrey, do you want me to praise you?"
"No, no need ..." Audrey turned his head back slightly shamefully.
Then she discovered an important problem, that is, she would not know divination, or divination, the enlightenment accuracy was very low!
I ca n’t verify it ... No, I can still ask Mister Fool for help! secret contract ceremony? This seems to only work on itself, not external item ... artificial sleepwalking? It is similar to the secret contract ritual, and it is also not possible ... sacrifice to Mister Fool, let him help divination, and then give it to me, no, no, it seems not respectful enough, He is not my father or teacher, but a real God , This method is too casual, a little blasphemous ... Audrey's idea gradually developed from Mister Fool related to divination related.
Although she does n’t know much about divination, she still has a certain understanding of the corresponding mysticism knowledge, and soon locked a certain class of divination methods:
That is to ask a third party for a certain ceremony, and ask for the unknown and mysterious existence to give the answer. The most typical representative of this kind of method is "magical mirror divination"!
"Well ... this is really dangerous, but the danger is that the object of the prayer may be full of maliciousness or it will make people collapse only by contact, and I have no such worries at all, I am asking for Mister Fool!" Audrey blinked Eyes, hold back the inner excitement, sideways to the Golden Retriever:
"Susie, you are guarding outside the door, I will use the mysticism method to check this notebook."
"Did you not use it just now?" Susie asked doubtfully.
She is getting harder and harder to cheat ... Audrey pupils turned slightly and said frankly:
"I plan to try‘ magical mirror divination ’.
"Relax, I have a safe request."
"Okay." Susie determined that Audrey was telling the truth.
It walked a few steps, turned around again, and urged:
"Audrey, you must be careful to be possessed by the mysterious existence."
"I know." Audrey responded without worry.
In her opinion, Mister Fool is really bad for herself, there have been countless opportunities, and there is no need to wait until now.
When Susie opens and closes by himself, when he is outside, Audrey sits at his desk, recites Mister Fool's esteemed name, and applies for "magical mirror divination method".
after a while, Klein in The Future entered the bathroom, came to above the grey mist, and heard Miss Justice's prayer.
"Can it still be? Also, as a mysterious, unknown existence, I can indeed act as a third-party force in" magical mirror divination "..." Klein gave the answer "Yes" somewhat funny.
Audrey immediately picked up notebook, sat down in front of the dressing table, and lit a candle in front of the mirror.
Note 1: Mu in this book refers to acres. In the middle and late period of Victoria era, the urban suburban land is about 1 acre from 100 to 130 pounds, which is converted from 1 acre to 2 pounds 10 shillings to 3 pounds 5 shillings. Well, except for the suburbs of London, of course, this is not necessarily too accurate It was extrapolated from the total expenditure of buying land to build a house at the time, deducting the cost of building the house.
