Start with the Readers Chapter 63: A corner of the curtain
In the first-class cabin of the White Agate, Abner, who had lowered his head and closed his eyes as if he was asleep, suddenly opened his eyes. He first shut down the "mechanical mind" ability, and then recalled what happened just now. All kinds of things in Origin Castle, I can't help but sigh in my heart:
"This 'mechanical mind' ability can indeed keep me absolutely calm, but it also has some influence on my xinxing. I didn't want to have such a utilitarian attitude towards Mr. Fool, and I even wanted to find an opportunity to remind him of some needs. Things to pay attention to... But under the 'mechanical mind', only the gains and losses are considered, and with some innocuous intelligence and knowledge, the goal is successfully completed..."
"It seems that this ability is best used only in combat and research in the future. If I use it too much in daily affairs, it will inevitably cause my temperament to shift... If everything is only calculated for utilitarian gains and losses, actions will also affect me." If only the optimal solution is used, can it still be considered a 'person'?"
Shaking his head to drive away the apparently excessively divergent thoughts from his mind, Abner looked at the broken pen in his hand again, and thought jokingly:
"If the item I made to contact Origin Castle was a monocle, after Mr. Fool comes into contact with the God of Mischief, will he be so scared that he will lose his hair when he recalls this scene?"
……
Whether or not Klein will lose his hair is still unknown, but Captain Dunn, who already has a high hairline, has encountered a very difficult matter at this time.
He was originally inspecting Raphael's cemetery, but suddenly the space around him was enveloped by a strange force. The feeling was a bit similar to his ability to pull others into dreams with his nightmare ability, but it was completely different. After all, although this space twisted and shrouded by special power is strange, it doesn't feel like a dream.
Captain Dunn took out the revolver and held it in his hand, and looked around cautiously, wanting to see if there was any opening to escape.
At this moment, a figure wearing a red shirt and a black turtleneck jacket appeared not far from Dunn.
It was a young man with handsome and bewitching features, long silver hair hanging loose, holding an exquisite wine glass filled with red liquid in his right hand. Seeing Dunn looking over, he raised his glass gracefully.
As soon as Dunn saw this man, he instinctively felt a kind of oppression from a higher-level creature. This kind of suppression seems to come from the dark realm, making it impossible for him to exert his nightmare ability.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Dunn didn't attack immediately, but asked calmly.
The man shook the wine glass in his hand, watched the scarlet liquid swaying and rippling, and said with a chuckle: "Of course I am here to wait for you, Captain Dunn."
"Wait for me? What's the matter?" Dunn asked in a deep voice after being stunned for a moment.
But he didn't believe that the other party was waiting for him here. He is just a Sequence 7 Nighthawk team leader, but the other party gives him the feeling that he is stronger than Your Excellency Sesima, maybe he is a demigod.
How could such a big shot come here to wait for him? Maybe the opponent's target is the Church of Evernight in Tingen?
Thinking of this, Dunn's face became even paler, and his eyes staring at the man became sharper.
The man shook his head, put down his wine glass, and walked forward slowly. At the same time, two giant bat wings appeared behind him, completely covering the entire cemetery, and the black light swayed slightly like water waves.
"Vampire?" Dunn narrowed his eyes, and raised the revolver. Even if he had no chance of winning, as the captain of the Nighthawks team, he would not catch him without a fight.
"Don't be so nervous, I don't mean anything malicious, I just want to sell favors to a friend I haven't met yet." The man slowly walked up to Dun En, and said with a leisurely smile: "And I'm really here Waiting for you! According to the decree issued by the ancestor, that friend attaches great importance to this city, and seems to want to change some established destiny here. And I have been here to observe for a long time, there are traces of human interference in your destiny It is the heaviest, so I came here to protect you."
"What?" Dunn was so suppressed by the other party's aura that he couldn't even move his fingers, but this did not prevent him from understanding what the other party meant.
"Of course, in addition to making that friend, there may be other additional gains!" The young man looked at the direction of the Deville Library, and then he walked behind Dunn, with a clean and tidy From the teeth protruded four fangs that shone with a silvery white luster.
It is not scary, but has a strange beauty.
"Don't worry, this is just a preventive measure, not a first embrace, and you won't die because of a potion conflict out of control!" After finishing speaking, his teeth bit Dun En's neck.
After a long time, Dunn woke up suddenly. He touched his neck subconsciously, his face was full of bewilderment. Because all he remembered was falling asleep in the cemetery. But a Nightmare would fall asleep unconsciously? Even curly-haired baboons might find it impossible.
"My memory is not so bad that I can even forget what happened just now, right?" Dunn said to himself with an ugly face.
……
On the outskirts of Tingen, a house with a green lawn.
It has a spacious garden that is still in bloom, with a dark red chimney.
Behind the bedroom window of this house is a desk with an ordinary notebook open on it.
A quill pen is strangely writing on the note at this time:
"Dunn Smith suddenly fell into a deep sleep while inspecting the cemetery, but he forgot how he fell asleep after waking up. He wanted to report this weird incident to the church headquarters, but because there was no obvious evidence, There is no follow-up effect, which makes him hesitate, and even suspects that he has signs of losing control."
"But later he found that his state was unexpectedly good, and even the frequent trance that occurred after connecting to the Antigonus family notebook disappeared."
"In the end he decided not to report it, but to increase the frequency of inspections in the cemetery in order to find new clues. This is very reasonable."
……
As soon as Abner packed up the broken pieces of pens and dumped them into the dustbin, he felt that the spiritual wall arranged was touched by someone. He sensed it and found that it was Aitris standing outside the room.
After lifting the spiritual blockade, there was a knock on the door, and Abner walked out unhurriedly and opened the door. Let Ai Trisi into the room.
"Abner, do you still have the item in your hand? I bought it for 400 pounds!" Aitris asked impatiently as soon as she entered the door.
"The money was raised so quickly? Hasn't it landed yet?" Abner was a little surprised when he heard the words, but soon had a guess, and asked directly, "Anderson gave it to you?"
"As expected of a detective, I guessed it right away!" Ai Triss nodded in admiration, and continued, "It's not a loan, but a loan. When I arrive at Enmat Port, I have to raise money to pay back Give him."
Abner had already recognized Aitris as a friend in his heart, so he said with concern at this time: "Even if it's just a temporary loan, I'm afraid there will be a price to pay... What did you promise him?" It is better to find him. At least he won't ask for any conditions.
"I need to join his hunter team... This is actually not a loss for me, because he will be responsible for teaching me the knowledge of 'hunters', as well as follow-up potion formulas, etc... This is exactly what I need! Ai Triss said firmly.
He also knew what Abner was worried about. In fact, he also had similar worries, but since he decided to become a big name among adventurers no matter what, a little risk was the price he had to bear.
It seems that Anderson formed the hunter team for the promotion ceremony... There should be no danger to his life, and at most he will be punished so that he has no love for life... After all, in order to make the team cooperate tacitly and communicate with each other, he personally took the initiative to pull all the team members hatred.
While Abner complained about Anderson's saucy operations in the future, he also took out the tin box sealed with the extraordinary characteristic of 'Hunter' from the luggage.
Unlock the spiritual ban, open the box, and display the jelly-like crimson object in front of Aitris.
"It really is the Extraordinary characteristic of 'Hunter'!" Ai Triss blurted out this sentence in agitated mood~IndoMTL.com~ Do you know him? It seems that Anderson has taught you a lot during this day! " Abner gave him a meaningful look.
"Not many, but Mr. Anderson showed me one that is exactly like this one before." Aitris took out a bag while talking, counted 40 10-pound banknotes and handed them to Abner.
After receiving it, Abner opened his pure white eyes to analyze and check one by one, and he couldn't be fooled by counterfeit money.
"Since Anderson has the 'Hunter' feature in his hand, why did you come to me to buy it?" After confirming that they were genuine, Abner asked casually.
"Because he seems to be cultivating a hunter team of at least 30 people, so his attitude towards Extraordinary characteristics is to buy as long as you have it." Ai Triss replied after covering the tin box and putting it away.
When Abner heard this, he suddenly felt something was wrong. If Anderson found some clues of the ceremony from the deeds of the predecessors of the Sequence Four "Iron Blood Knight", he thought it was possible to consciously imitate and form a team.
But this specification of "at least 30 people" cannot be explained by analyzing the clues, which means that Anderson got the potion formula of Sequence 4... at least part of the formula!
But in the original book, he definitely didn't exist at this time... What's the problem? The biggest difference between him and the original plot should be that he sent me things and messages... Could it be that this is a reward from the Church of Knowledge?
After analyzing this point, Abner was even more puzzled:
If it was really the handiwork of the Church of Knowledge, then he probably has deeper plans for Anderson! After all, it's just a message, even if I'm valued, this value can't be equal to the potion formula of Sequence 4!
