Start with the Readers Chapter 201: The Shepherd
The first Baron Ramud? That's the identity Mr. Ards used in a certain life, right? Klein should have already explored the small town of Ramud at this time period. Does he want to help the son of the **** of death retrieve more memories?
Well, accepting this commission should be regarded as a relatively complete "Knowledge Keeper" role... and the one who wants to obtain this "knowledge" is the "Death Consul". Once he really recalls something, The feedback I got should not be small...
As for the investigation for Hugh? Hehe, I still don't know if the standard for accepting people in the Tarot Club is purely voluntary? Isn't the so-called "object of investigation" the same as "tool man"?
In a flash of thought, Abner made a decision. He looked up at Mister Fool and said respectfully, "I am willing to accept this task."
"Very good." Klein nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Derrick "The Sun", and asked gently, "What do you think?"
Actually, this entrustment has nothing to do with "The Sun", but he is the party involved in this deal after all. Out of respect, Klein felt that he should not be excluded.
"I have no objection." Derrick nodded without hesitation when he saw that he could get the starting sequence of the "Sun" pathway on the spot.
Seeing this, "The Fool" Klein pressed his hand forward in a good mood, manifested two "Singer" recipes, and "passed" them to the "Tower" and "Sun" .
"Tower" just glanced casually and stopped paying attention.
The "sun" frowned first, and then relaxed it.
Well, the names of the ingredients in the Land Abandoned by the Gods must still maintain the ancient characteristics...Fortunately, I got this recipe directly from "Eternal Blazing Sun", with ancient names marked, and various substitutes... Klein thought with some gratitude.
After the deal was over, Abner looked at "Justice" Audrey on the opposite side, and said apologetically, "Miss Justice, among the gifts you gave last time, you only chose a feather hat... It's a pity Sorry, the rest of the jewelry, I forgot to return it to you..."
"Justice" Audrey waved her hands and said with a smile: "Those jewelry are not worth much. question, then those jewelry will be my thank you gift."
"What question?" Abner asked with a smile, he could roughly guess what Audrey wanted to ask.
"I recently came into contact with some Extraordinary circles, and learned about a strong man called Mr. A, Mr. Tower, do you know his background and true identity?" Audrey asked with some expectation.
Mr. A? I only know Mr. Z... With such a similar code name, could it be that he also belongs to the Aurora Society? Klein made guesses in his heart, but didn't answer.
He must maintain his image and try not to give answers that are not too sure. If he is really faced with this situation, the description must be vague, like a magic stick.
Sure enough, this is the question... Abner thought about it in his heart, and on the surface he weighed his words, and then he said:
"Aurora will have five saints and twenty-two envoys. These envoys are code-named with letters, and they call themselves Mr. A, Mr. X... They are at least Sequence 7 Extraordinary, and the strongest are Sequence 5. Quite good at concealing himself... If an envoy dies, a new envoy will replace him.
"I heard that they are keen to hold extraordinary gatherings in big cities, such as Mr. Z in Enmat Harbor, and Mr. A in Backlund.
"As far as I know, this Mr. A is a Sequence 5'shepherd' who has herded many powerful Extraordinary people. He has many methods and is indeed very strong."
As soon as he said this, Derrick "The Sun" who was listening quietly blurted out in surprise:
"Shepherd?"
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Derrick was a little flustered, and hurriedly stammered to explain:
"I just didn't expect that there are Extraordinary people of this sequence in your world... This is the sequence path that our City of Silver found from those cities destroyed by 'dark things', only up to the 'shepherd of Sequence 5' ', but, but after Elder Lovia became a 'shepherd', he was very powerful, very strange, and very terrifying. It is said that he once fought against evil spirits at a high sequence level and was not injured. Therefore, he appeared in the seat of the 'six-member council' After the vacancy, she made an exception and became an elder."
Hearing this, Klein sighed in his heart: "Sun", you are really just a child. Although this news is not very useful information for "The Hanged Man" and "Justice", it is completely acceptable. Wrap it up and exchange it for something of value, you just say that! Say it...
Audrey "Justice" asked more curiously at this time: "Which sequence path does the shepherd belong to? What sequence?"
"The 'Secret Prayer' path, 5." Klein seized the opportunity and said without a trace.
Secret prayer...the path of the Aurora Society...the "sun" said that the City of Silver found the potion formula of this sequence in the city destroyed by the "dark thing"...
The "sanctuary" of the true Creator is indeed in the "Land Abandoned by God", right? Even if not, at least there is a great connection!
"The Hanged Man" Argel immediately solved a certain mystery in his heart, and did not speak for a while.
"Mr. Tower, can you introduce the ability of Shepherd in detail? I can pay for it." Audrey looked at Abner who was diagonally across the table again, and asked.
"No need, Miss Justice, the value of your jewelry can fully match this knowledge." Abner shook his head, then smiled, "Do you want to apply for private communication?"
Abner once roughly estimated the price of those jewelry, because there is a headdress made by a famous designer, and it is conservatively estimated that it can be sold for more than 200 pounds. If it is auctioned, the price may be even higher.
Therefore, Abner was really embarrassed to ask Miss Justice for money again.
"Justice" Audrey thought about it, and felt that there was no need to be so stingy, and replied with a smile: "Let's just say it."
"The core ability of the 'Shepherd' is 'grazing', which can swallow other people's souls, including resentful spirits and evil spirits, into the body, and drive these souls in a unique way, just like shepherding lambs for the gods.
"How much ability a 'shepherd' possesses depends only on how many extraordinary souls he has devoured... Of course, this is not without limit.
"At the level of Sequence 5, the 'Shepherd' can only selectively use the three abilities of the driven soul, and can herd up to seven souls."
Audrey's face turned pale when she heard it. Although she was blocked by the gray fog and was not noticed by others, she still couldn't help sighing: "This... this is too evil! Compared with the previous "Fallen Morning Star" 'Mystery Instructor' is also an ability that can use other means, and the ability of 'Shepherd' is too evil!"
It turns out that the meaning of "shepherd" is this... The sequence path mastered by the "Aurora Order" is as weird as ever... No wonder they believe in the "True Creator", no, "Fallen Creator"...Klein Suddenly, but did not nod, showing the appearance of knowing.
But "The Hanged Man" Argel spit out a word at this moment: "Squirming hunger!"
It turns out that "squirming hunger" is a means of "shepherd", no wonder Qilingus can use it to become a pirate general.
Thinking of this pirate general, Alger's heart moved, and seeing that other people were not willing to continue trading or sharing, he looked at Miss "Justice" opposite him, organized his words, and asked, "Do you still need it?" 'The complete pituitary gland of a colorful lizard'?"
"Of course!" Audrey recovered from her dislike of "Shepherd" before, and nodded without hesitation.
"I may be able to get it, but you must complete one of my commissions." Alger said in a deep voice.
In fact, he wants to hand over the entrustment to "Tower", but the other party has just accepted the task of Mr. "Fool", so I'm afraid he doesn't have time... Moreover, he doesn't have anything that can impress "Tower".
"What entrustment?" Audrey asked doubtfully.
Alger thought for a few seconds and said:
"I have received information that the great pirate Qilingus, who is known as 'Vice Admiral Hurricane', has landed secretly and sneaked into Backlund. I don't know what he wants to do. I hope you can help me find his whereabouts. As for the follow-up There is no need for you to take risks."
"Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilingus? One of seven... no, one of the six pirate generals?" Audrey's eyes widened slightly, and she repeated in surprise.
"Yes, he is the Sequence 6 'Wind Blessed One' of the 'Sailor' pathway, and he also possesses a magical item called 'Squirming Hunger'. It's a sealed item with the characteristics of a 'shepherd'... Besides, Qilingus is quite cunning and cruel, so don't try to deal with him." Alger solemnly introduced.
Here, he suddenly turned his head, looked at Klein and said:
"Mr. Fool, can I ask your favored one to help you at a critical moment? I will pay the price you are interested in."
My favored one is only myself... Klein eased his emotions by complaining, and smiled slightly:
"The premise is that my favored one happens to be in Backlund."
"Okay." Alger looked back with some disappointment and some expectation.
"Mr. Hanged Man, I am willing to accept this commission... Can you describe in detail the characteristics and habits of 'Squirming Hunger' and 'Vice Admiral Hurricane'?" Audrey said confidently.
This caused Abner to glance at her, and couldn't help guessing in his heart: Miss, your source of confidence should not be Hugh? She is only Sequence 8, is it really okay to give her such a dangerous commission?
"Very good, if you can succeed, then the 'Complete Pituitary Gland of the Colorful Lizard Dragon' will be yours." Alger first made a promise, and then he said things like "squirming hunger" every other day. Audrey the Justice was informed about the Beyonders who ate a person's soul and flesh, and which pathways they might have herded.
Then, with Klein's permission and help, Alger manifested Qilingus' portrait.
"Alright, I will arrange for someone to find his whereabouts." Audrey pursed her lips and replied with a smile.
After discussing the things that should be discussed and sharing the information that should be shared, Klein saw that everyone was silent, so he smiled and announced that today's gathering is over.
…
After "returning" to reality, Abner immediately set up an altar, held a ceremony to accept the "gift", and took the 1,800 gold pounds that "The Hanged Man" bought the formula into.
After checking the authenticity with the "Pure White Eye", Abner put the bundle of banknotes into the safe in the bedroom.
After finishing all this~IndoMTL.com~he withdrew the spiritual blockade of the room, and began to seriously think about how to complete Mister Fool's mission.
"Although there is an introduction to Mr. Azik's life in the original book, it is very brief, and it is impossible to use it directly for business...
"The time when Azik was active as the first Baron Ramud was probably in the last chaotic era at the end of the Fourth Epoch, at least 1300 years ago... After all, this year is only 1349 of the Fifth Epoch year.
"Where does this start?
"Maybe there will be corresponding clues in the royal family's library...but even if it is open, ordinary people can't get in...
"Maybe...can pretend to be someone with enough identity?"
Thinking of this, Abner stood up, and took out from his warehouse a mask that was painted with complex patterns that looked like the face of a clown.
"The 'clown mask' should already be able to reset the disguised face."
