The moonlit night, in the garden at 160 Berklund Street.
A gray mouse crawled out of the cave and ran to the balcony of the master bedroom room.
A small, muddy black thing fell with it, and it was put on the head by the mouse performing acrobatics.
It turned quickly and ran out of 160 Berklund Street to the entrance of the nearby sewer.
At this time, the gray mouse raised his front body and protruded two paws.
It's claws stretch out strangely, and a group of clearly visible muscles appear on the front legs!
Then, it relied on the mutated front claws and removed the manhole cover hardly, making almost no sound!
Without pausing, the gray mouse got into the sewer and went all the way to where demoness Triss was hiding.
It was digging in the corner, turning a mirror fragment out of the dirt.
After doing all this, the gray mouse threw the paste-like black things above his head to a cleaner place next to him, and retreated to the corner of the wall, allowing the body to slowly grow longer and wider as it was pulled by an invisible person, becoming a wear A middle-aged man with a dark red jacket and an old cocked hat is like Admiral of Blood who was active in the sea in the past.
However, this Senor even has a thin layer of clothing, like a dummy cut out of paper.
"This mouse is still fat ..." Admiral of Blood, like paperman, raised his hand and touched his chin. He was almost blown away by the cold wind in the sewer.
It was Klein who was speaking. In the room of master bedroom, he manipulated "spiritual body string", transformed a mouse into Secret Puppet, sent it with "ceremonial material", and tried to contact demoness Triss in the sewer.
"Senor", whose arms are constantly twisting with the wind and movements, bends down back and picks up the muddy black thing. This is Triss after burning a strand of hair with black flame. item of legacy can be used Liaison ceremony.
Next, he wiped away the mirror fragment and smeared the material in his hand.
After completing this step, Klein asked Secret Puppet to take a "mirror" and took two steps back, snapping it on the mossy wall like a realistic oil painting.
…………
eastern district, a room with thick curtains and almost no light.
A series of dark and smooth "tentacles" are layered together, forming a huge ball.
And at the top of these "tentacles", some are set with a black-and-white eyeball, and some have grown like a viper's head, their mouths are slightly separated, and they are spitting out the letters.
Suddenly, they either lifted up or retracted, and the ball collapsed layer after layer.
In the center of the ball, there is a young girl curled up in a ball. She has a very sweet face, her brows are tightly wrinkled, her expression is slightly twisted by pain, and it is particularly pitiful.
The greasy and disgusting "tentacles" have all retracted at this time, quickly becoming smaller, and finally restored to their original appearance:
Black and bright hair!
The expression of the girl covered with supple long hair eased, and she moved up slowly, walked to the bed that had been divided into small pieces, picked up the nightdress that fell to the ground, and put it on her body.
Then she gathered her black hair, came to the full-length mirror, stretched out right palm, and wiped the glass surface.
A black flame ignited with it, burning the air quietly and extinguishing quickly, leaving behind a dark and deep mirror.
In the mirror, the light and shadow floated, quickly showing the dirty and muddy sewer environment, and a middle-aged man wearing an old triangle hat and a dark red jacket was thinly attached to the wall, looking down at some unknown distance. Girls are like famous paintings that come alive.
The girl with a round face and slender eyes looked at each other quietly for two seconds, and burst out laughing suddenly.
As her smile bloomed, the room with little light seemed brighter in a flash.
She then gently opened her lips and said in a mocking tone:
"Mr. Gehrman Sparrow, is this the craziness and cruelty of the strongest adventurer?
"Or, I actually know an Clown?"
For demoness Triss to recognize his Gehrman Sparrow identity, Klein is not surprised at all. After all, he used the "Admiral of Blood" Senor's image when meeting with the other party, and this pirate admiral has already become the prey of Gehrman Sparrow.
In the beginning, Triss was hiding in the sewer due to injury. Before that, she focused on the investigation of revenge. I do n’t know all kinds of news from the sea. I do n’t know that Admiral of Blood ’s experience is quite normal. Knowing the recent news of the collaborators, I can only say that she was completely unqualified at both stages of "Assassin" and "Instigator".
Obviously, Triss ’s past performance proves that she is bad, and her mind is okay.
Klein did not argue, Senor who manipulated the paperman status smiled, and simply responded:
"Why ca n’t Clown be crazy and cold?"
Not waiting for Triss to answer, he asked instead:
"To what extent did you investigate the court Royal Guard Commander?"
Triss looked a little gloomy:
"It will take at least one month to have results, even two months."
"If you have any help, you can contact me." Klein emphasized again.
Triss sighed:
"In Beckland, power does not solve all problems in this game.
"Of course, I have never wasted the opportunity to use others.
"Mr. Gehrman Sparrow, since there is no need to hide your identity, can you give me a more convenient way to contact?"
How do I feel like I was asked for a mobile phone number ... Klein thought for a while, and calmly described the steps to summon the messenger, without forgetting to emphasize that gold coins are important ceremonial materials.
Triss didn't say more, and once again extended his right hand and tapped the mirror.
The black flame rose and disappeared, and the full-length mirror returned to normal.
In the sewer, "Admiral of Blood" Senor in the paperman state reburied the mirror fragment into the soil, and then let the body shrink rapidly, changing back to the appearance of a gray mouse, rushing all the way to the depths of this underground world, feeding itself to Carnivorous living creature.
160 Berklund Street, Klein closed the curtains and returned to the easy chair position.
honestly speaking, he regretted working with Triss.
He felt that the guy was carrying some of the will of Primordial Demoness, and he could ignore anything for revenge, just like a moving bomb, and I do n’t know when it will get out of control.
If there is a change in Triss, it is very likely to create a terrible disaster ... I should n’t have let her go ... Klein sighed and began to arrange the ceremony to bring the black paste-like things to above the grey mist, Try to pass them the current whereabouts of divination Triss and the status of the most recent period.
After twenty or thirty seconds, he reaps the result of failure.
This makes him even more worried, because such results show that Triss has to some extent become the **** favored one of Primordial Demoness.
…………
The next morning, Klein, who had breakfast, began to guide the butler Walter and the new butler assistant Richardson to distribute the gifts he brought back from southern continent.
This is full of a suitcase, including special products such as Fermo coffee beans, East Balam tobacco, River Valley wine, human bone statues and so on.
They will be sent to the hands of different neighbors in the neighborhood, representing the heart of Dawn Dantes, and also proclaiming his return on social occasions.
"Well, when this bottle of river valley wine is handed over to the Macht councilor or his wife, remember to mention that it is suitable for making sour cocktails, which is a perfect partner with lemon juice." Klein told the steward Walter.
—— Every gift is gifted to someone. It is necessary to combine with each other ’s hobbies. Of course, southern continent ’s hottest product Doningsman Tonic is not suitable for gifts, because it is more like a mockery.
Walter Zheng Zhengtou said:
"Yes, sir."
When the employer has no other instructions, Richardson glances at the remaining pile of gifts and actively asks:
"Where are they going to be sent?"
"This is for the charity student fund staff, I will send it myself." Klein smiled and smiled.
He immediately pointed to the golden protective talisman in his hand and said:
"I missed the birth of Dr. Alan's child, and I need to personally come to express my apologies. Ha ha, I will pass this afternoon and give this southern continent characteristic protective talisman to that child."
Of course, most babies like Will Ascetin.Ceres won't like it ... He, or he, would rather have ice cream than this ... Klein in one's mind whispered a few words.
When Mr. Butler and Richardson went out one after another, they took gifts and a male servant to different neighbors' homes. Klein got on his carriage and arrived all the way to "Ruen Charity Foundation" at 22 Percival Street.
Getting off the carriage, he walks in front, behind him is a close-fitting male servant Eniyuni holding a pile of gifts. Whenever he meets a staff along the way, he will go up to say hello and make a gift.
That's it, Klein reached second floor, arrived at one of the directors' offices, bent his fingers, and tapped on the covert door.
"Please come in." Audrey Hall's soft voice came out.
As a more senior Audience, she discovered that Mr. Dawn Dantes had come to "Ruen Charity Foundation" before and had been waiting patiently.
Klein pushes the door in and pulls out a small gift box from the inner pocket of the clothes. Wen Wen smiles:
"I returned from southern continent. Well, this time the business was very successful. I brought a little gift to everyone, hoping to share my joy."
He specifically mentioned this, saying he remembered Miss Justice ’s request.
"Then I have no reason to refuse." Audrey smiled expectantly.
This is not to say that she cares about what gifts Mister World will give, but rather what gifts Mister World will give.
Taking over the gift box, she unpacked it in front of Dawn Dantes and found that it contained a white feather as the main body and a light yellow ornament.
"This is a hat ornament." Klein explained, "People with a certain social status in East Balam like to insert a variety of white feathers in different positions on their bodies to make jewelry. Among them, the most expensive and the most valuable are the hats. Meaningful, this is said to come from the custom of winged snake worship, huh, winged snake is the symbol of Death God there. "
And the feather he found from southern continent craftsmen to make hat ornaments is a by-product of the artificial Death God plan and can be used as a sacrifice.
Klein once got three, one used in Bayam, combined with the corresponding copper whistle messenger, summoned the monsters contaminated by artificial Death God pollution, and one sacrificed to artificial Death God on southern continent, obtained the possession of the evil spirit Ince Zangwill Revelation, this is the last one left.
Because the current "artificial Death God" is actually equal to "Goddess of the Night" to a certain extent, when Klein, which is clearly favored one, holds the ceremony, there is no need to operate as before, and other materials can be used to replace the feathers. The next root made a gift and gave it to Miss Justice. Anyway, she is also a believer of night. Maybe at a critical moment, she can still contact "artificial Death God" with this feather.
Audrey holding a gift, smiling, and listening to the Dawn Dantes story quietly, a thought flashed in my mind for no reason:
Mister World wo n’t really pull out the hair of winged snake to make this hat ornament ...
