Start with the Readers Chapter 91: Azik and the mask

The address that Darkwill left for Abner before was located on Leleton Street in Jorwood District near the Tussock River, not too far from the Bridge District Police Station, so Abner did not take the carriage either. Instead, go on foot.

On the way, he also bought two Dixie pies for lunch.

More than ten minutes later, after eating the well-known Luen delicacy with rich meat and gravy, Abner just walked to the location written on the address.

This is a two-story house facing the street. It can be seen that it has just been renovated, and the signboard says "Folk Custom Herbal Medicine Store".

Abner pushed the door open and walked in. While smelling various herbs, he also saw Darkwill with short black hair and a round face.

He is still wearing the costume that resembles a village witch doctor. The robe is dark black and embroidered with various strange symbols.

When the fat pharmacist saw Abner come in, he showed a surprised expression, then glanced at him with his dark blue eyes, and said with a slightly raised corner of his mouth:

"You don't look sick, why did you come to me?"

After finishing speaking, he seemed to have suddenly realized again, he laughed strangely twice, and said in a low voice:

"Did you also hear about my mummy powder? It is indeed very famous these two days. Many nobles came here to buy this kind of thing, put it in tea, or make soup... There was even an earl who wanted to use it He exchanged the antique mask of the Fourth Epoch with me!"

"But why are you so weak at such a young age?"

Just as Abner wanted to say hello, he was blocked by these words. He heard the corners of his eyes twitching, thinking that it was a miracle that the pharmacist in front of him was not beaten to death.

Seeing that the other party was still promoting the "mummy powder", Abner had no choice but to interrupt: "Darkwell, I'm here to introduce business to you today, I wonder if you have the ability to accept it?" Down."

Only then did Darkwell stop the endless advertisements, glanced at Abner, and asked suspiciously: "What business?" He was obviously just a casual acquaintance on the ship, but he actually introduced business to me? Will this be a problem?

"I have a friend. Because his wife got pregnant through unconventional means, there may be some problems with the fetus... Do you have any medicine to deal with this situation?" Abner said a little vaguely, after all, in the eyes of the other party Here, he didn't know that he was a Sequence 9 "pharmacist".

Hearing this, Darkwill looked at Abner warily, and then asked with a smile: "Is that friend you mentioned yourself? Or is that unconventional method actually you?"

Believe it or not, I am going to report you now? Anyway, you are not the only pharmacist in Backlund, Emlyn's parents are also good candidates!

Abner was cursing in his heart, but on the surface he smiled and said: "It seems that you don't have this ability anymore, it's a pity that big client..."

"Who said I can't do anything? But you have to call someone to show me, otherwise how would I know what kind of 'unconventional' method caused the pregnancy?" A new store, but also to buy and cultivate herbs, so the savings are not much. For big customers, he didn't care about being reserved.

Of course, the most important thing is that he has some contacts in Backlund, and he has never done anything illegal, so he is not too afraid of being approached by the official Extraordinary of the major churches.

"Then it's settled, I will bring people over tomorrow." Abner nodded, and then looked around.

Only after finalizing the business, did he have the mind to look at the products in this store.

Deep Sleeping Flower, Dragon Blood Grass, Crimson Sandalwood, Mint, Lavender...the variety is very complete. You can come to him to buy the herbs for the ceremony in the future, and you don't have to go back and forth to many shops so much trouble...

Just as Abner was thinking, he heard Darkwill beside him say in a vigilant tone: "What are you looking at? Let me know in advance that I won't pay the agency fee!"

Well, in order not to hear what this person said, I would rather go to a few more stores to buy materials...

Thinking of this, Abner deeply felt that his self-cultivation was getting better and better.

……

During the summer vacation, Huoyi University is full of green trees, flowers and birds flourishing, peaceful and quiet.

After walking along the river for a while, Klein turned into the road leading to the Department of History, and found an old three-story graystone building, and found the common room where Mr. Azik was.

He knocked on the door and entered, and saw his teacher Azik who seemed to be sitting there waiting for him.

This is a gentleman with bronze skin, medium build, black hair and brown pupils, and gentle facial features. Small moles that cannot be found.

"Why did you come here today? Did you find something and want to tell me?" Seeing Klein walk in, Mr. Azik raised his head and asked gently.

"Mr. Ards, can I have a chat with you?" Klein glanced at the other teachers in the common room and said sincerely.

Hearing what his student said, this gentleman with deep brown eyes sorted out the book and said:

"No problem, let's go for a walk by the Hoy River like last time."

"Okay." Klein held his cane and followed him out of the three-story graystone building.

Along the way, both of them remained silent, and no one spoke.

When the flowing river came into view, and when there were no more teachers and students around, Azik paused, turned his body halfway, and said to Klein:

"Okay, it's quiet enough here to talk."

Klein pondered for a moment, organized his words and said, "Mr. Ards, I recently heard about a sealed item that has the property of being 'alive'. Maybe the description of it can help you think of something."

"Sealed item?" Azik was a little dazed after hearing this word, but he came back to his senses after a while and asked, "What kind of sealed item?"

Seeing that the other party seemed to have really remembered something, Klein was a little excited, and hurriedly followed the prayer content of the "tower" he received yesterday, and continued: "It's a 'mask' that can change the wearer into a preset mask. A good appearance can enhance strength, balance and other abilities, but its negative effect is..."

After repeating the "Tower"'s prayer, Klein saw that Azik seemed to have fallen into a strange state. His eyes were sometimes deep and sometimes blurred, as if he had been wandering between dreams and reality.

"Mr. Azik, what's wrong with you?" Klein asked cautiously while holding his cane tightly and turning on his Spirit Vision.

Before he came to Hoy University to look for Mr. Azik, he did a quick divination with a pendulum, and the result of the divination showed that there was almost no danger.

But through the "clown" in the "Secret Order" who gave him lessons with his life, he already understood that divination is not omnipotent, and he needs to always be on guard against mistakes in his interpretation, or problems with the organization of divination sentences, and Ah Teacher Zik is a mysterious Extraordinary. No one knows what happened to him in the past, or how he will react once he is stimulated. Caution, vigilance and worry have become Klein's normal emotions.

Azik didn't answer right away, he stretched out his hand and squeezed the space between his brows, and after a long while, he said in a sleepy tone:

"I once had a mask like this, it can make me anyone."

"But it seems to be missing..."

"Maybe I lost it on my own initiative..."

Actively lost? Why? Does it also have strong negative effects? Maybe Mr. Ards lost his memory because of that mask... I wanted to ask about communication skills with sealed items...

Many thoughts flashed through Klein's mind. Before he could ask anything, he saw that Mr. Ards' spirit had recovered, and he smiled and said to him, "Klein, thank you for bringing me This news, it reminds me of something."

"I'm also very happy to help you... Well, I will continue to collect similar information in the future." Klein also replied with a smile.

Azik nodded slightly, expressed his thanks, and then asked:

"Aside from telling me about the sealed item, do you have other things to do here today?"

Klein nodded when he heard the words, and didn't shy away from it. He frankly asked about the "sacrifice" and how to communicate with the "sealed item".

Azik took a deep look at him ~IndoMTL.com~ and replied: "I don't know about the knowledge of 'sacrifice', or maybe I haven't remembered it yet. But only from the existing memory , it can also be inferred that it is very dangerous, because you don't know what attitude the recipient of the sacrifice has towards you..."

No, I know, because I am the recipient of the sacrifice. Klein laughed at himself in his heart, and heard Mr. Ards continue:

"As for the way to communicate with the sealed item... well, take the mask you just mentioned as an example, as long as you use its fearful breath, or place it next to dangerous objects that can destroy it, it is easy to communicate .”

"In addition, every middle and low-level sealed item is easy to obey the superior existence of its path. It's like the 'puppet' you mentioned last time looking for the descendants of the Antigonus family Sealed item, even after many years, it is still looking for the breath of the original owner."

Klein nodded thoughtfully when he heard the words. Thinking of his title of "The Fool" and the close connection between the gray mist and the "Seer" pathway, he probably guessed why the "Tower" was convinced that he could and The "clown mask" communicated.

"Since this is the case, if the sealed item is covered with gray mist, it should be more 'honest', right?" Klein thought to himself.

After the matter was over, Azik, who recalled some past events, took the lead to say goodbye. Klein knew that the other party must be in a state of confusion at the moment, so he didn't hold back, and watched the other party go back to the small gray stone building.

Afterwards, Klein, who walked out of the university school district, suddenly groaned in his stomach. He took out his pocket watch and looked at it, and found that it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. Then he hurriedly got on the public carriage and returned to his home at No. 2 Narcissus Street to prepare meals. Still muttering in his mouth:

"Mr. Ards didn't even invite me to lunch..."
