Part 3 The Traveler Chapter 130 – The Arrival
The gas lamps at the ends of the stone bridge shone silently on the road, but they could not dispel the darkness below, and only the dull scarlet falling from the sky could barely light up the brown dirt.
The “Councilor of Fate” Ricord, who was hiding in the bridge hole, did not make a sound for a long time, which made Klein wonder if the other party had passed away because of his serious injuries – he guessed that the failure of the previous additional luck was probably due to the same factor.
Just as Klein tried to open his mouth to confirm the situation, Rychod coughed twice and said in a husky voice:
”Not bad for a powerful adventurer who can briefly seal the dice ……
”The current situation is beyond my expectations, ahem, and I’m curious as to what has happened to make my additional luck not work at all.
”It’s a great pity that I can’t come out and face you directly, otherwise I should be able to see things that are difficult for other pathway extraordinarys to see, even if they have a higher level of psychic vision.
”This is a special that only the ‘Destiny’ pathway possesses.”
So the problem is me? That’s not the point, the point is that you have to give me the 700 pounds, no, 730 pounds …… Klein inwardly spat while involuntarily remembering the orphaned Admiral Admiral in Tingen City who was nicknamed “Monster”.
That young man, who is slightly equal to half of the sequence 9, screamed and fell to the ground after seeing Klein, his eyes bled, and he was scared as if he had met a demon.
Is it because he has a special “Wheel of Fortune” pathway, so he can see my problem, see something related to the gray mist? Unfortunately, this “Councilor of Fate” is seriously injured and has his own domain of doom, so I can’t ask him to help me examine …… Go back and ask Will Ansettin, the “Mercury Serpent”, he may know something. What, however, this route is also very God’s stick temperament, he may not directly answer me, the probability of only giving a few vague and ambiguous words …… Klein maintained the state of no expression said:
”So what are you going to do?”
Rychod sighed and said:
”You’ll go get Dakwil here and I’ll attach luck to him so he can go to the casino and win money instead of you.”
According to the name of the hotel given by Councilor Rijord, Klein quickly got Duckwell, the fat pharmacist, and then carrying a suitcase and a civilized stick, he woodenly watched the other party keep winning at several major casinos, reaping 750 pounds in the early hours of the morning.
Receiving the £730 final payment, Klein truly recognized a problem:
The reason his luck had failed him earlier was in himself!
”Why?” Klein tucked in his bloated wallet, frowned, and muttered silently to himself.
He quickly thought of the invisible, shallow, grayish mist around him, and vaguely understood the cause.
”After being promoted to ‘Faceless Man’, the gray mist is somewhat intertwined with reality, and not only can it help me shield myself from ravings that are not too strong in nature, but it can also destroy destiny-type influences exerted by others within a certain range? So the luck given by that councilor couldn’t work.
”By that logic, bad luck within a certain degree shouldn’t be able to affect me either.
”Heh, what kind of thing is that? It both keeps me from becoming unlucky and dashes my hopes of becoming a Euro Emperor and winner ……” Klein shook his head darkly and followed Dakwil and Owl back to the stone bridge, informing the ‘Councillor of Fate’ of the method of summoning his messenger He told “Councilor of Fate” Reichold to relay the news of the offensive magical item to the other party as soon as he obtained it.
After all this, Klein found an inn in the harbor city of Oravi Island, opened a normal room, and stayed there.
……
Berklander, mid-morning.
Emlyn White walked under his favorite overcast sky, through a fog not as thick as that of last November-December, and once again came outside 7 Pinster Street, North End.
Pulling the doorbell, he waited up patiently with his back straight and his chin slightly raised.
Leonard opened the door, glanced at the rather obnoxious though handsome face, and stepped out of the way to allow the other man to enter.
He was still dressed in his homey white shirt with black pants, but with an extra layer of unbuttoned dark vest over it.
”How’s that for consideration?” Leonard asked with a smile.
”No problem.” Since it wasn’t spending his own money, Emlyn had no thoughts of haggling.
He even thought that with the attitude the other party showed last time, haggling would instead lead to an increase in price.
Leonard nodded gently and let out a laugh:
”Very rich.”
I can hear it, you’re hedging your bets …… Emlin grunted darkly and opened his mouth to respond:
”This is not something you need to be concerned about.”
After saying that, he raised the small suitcase in his hand, opened and showed up the 7000 pounds of cash inside.
Leonard took it out in stacks and carefully examined it for a few moments.
Then, he removed the red glove he wore on his left palm and handed it to Emlindo:
”This is the magical item you need, it can camouflage itself in different colors.
”It’s called ‘Spark’, it can increase the user’s charisma and make his words extremely persuasive, it can steal one of the target’s extraordinary abilities within a range of 50 meters, the more you know about the target, the easier it is to steal the one you want, the more ignorant you are, the closer it is to randomness and relies on luck.
”A failure result is possible when the target’s sequence is higher than 6. The higher up you go, the higher the probability of failure.
”After a successful theft, the original target loses that extraordinary ability and must go at least 12 hours between attempts to regain it, whereas the owner of the ‘Spark’ can use it skillfully for about 10 minutes.
”And the reason it’s expensive is because it has very little negative effects.”
Emlyn, who had quietly listened to the other party’s introduction, had a keen interest in this magical item, the ‘Fire Seed’, and opened his mouth to ask:
”What are the negative effects?”
Leonard casually ran his hand through his hair and smiled:
”One is that when wearing it, there is a not-so-small probability of losing items on one’s body, and the second is that after using it, one’s own extraordinary ability will be lost for at least 12 hours, but there will only be one in this timeframe, in other words, even if it is used multiple times, only one will be lost.”
”Compared to a lot of seals I know of, it does have very little negative effects.” Emlyn cleared his throat and nodded slightly.
He took the Spark glove and examined it carefully, then pulled out the stacks of cash from the suitcase and placed them on the coffee table.
Then he put the gloves into the suitcase, not carrying them directly.
Carrying the suitcase, Emlyn returned to the Harvest Church the same way as before and entered the clergy lounge to set up the consecration ceremony.
The illusory and hazy mysterious door opened, and the red glove passed through the dark and deep void, about to enter the gray mist above.
Just then, a small, twisted, horrifying human face suddenly emerged from the surface of that glove in contact with the gray mist.
It kept evaporating and struggled to maintain it.
Seeing this scene, Klein did not feel too surprised, after all, Leonard in the body of the old grandfather is the “stealer” pathway angel, Amon’s incarnation can do things, k may not be unable to do.
In this regard, he has been fully prepared, believe that even if the other party really reached the level of Amon, he can also remove the corresponding breath and do not let the other party to detect the existence of the gray fog, so that the “moon” Emlin hand.
Picking up the “Scepter of Poseidon” that had been placed in front of him, Klein made the greenish-blue “jewels” light up at the same time in a condescending position.
Suddenly, the gray fog was brightly lit up with silver and white, and a bunch of lightning bolts, just like a rainstorm, carried the little power of the gray fog and landed on the small illusory human face one after another.
That human face completely dissipated without even having time to emit a scream, leaving behind a dead translucent worm with twelve transparent rings.
”The Worm of Time …… but it’s weaker than Amon ……,” Klein whispered, beckoning the red glove and the familiar worm to fly over at the same time.
After careful identification, he confirmed that the bug was basically the same as the one left behind by Amon’s doppelganger.
”Poet classmate’s old grandpa and Amon are in the same sequence, Sequence 1?No, not necessarily, this might just be a feature of one of the previous sequences ……
”If, if it’s really sequence 1, considering that Amon is the son of the Creator, the King of Angels, maybe k also fused uniqueness, or another copy of the sequence 1 characteristics ……” Klein made a guess, but had no way to confirm it.
As for what the dead Worm of Time could be used for, and when its spirituality would completely dissipate, he could only throw it into the pile of clutter due to a lack of appropriate knowledge.
……
7 PINSTER STREET, BECKLAND.
Leonard Mitchell sat on the couch, eyes tightly closed, feet resting on the coffee table, as if making up for a whole night’s wakefulness with a short sleep.
After an unknown time he suddenly opened his eyes and lowered his voice:
”What’s the situation? Have the true buyer of the ‘Spark’ been identified?”
A slightly aged voice then resounded within his mind:
”The aura I left behind was removed, completely and utterly removed.”
”Did you find anything?” Leonard asked in a deep voice as he retracted his legs.
The pale voice sighed and said:
”Nope.
”It was over before I reacted.
”If I were at my own best, I might be able to grasp the appropriate clues, but alas, I have been weak for many years.”
Leonard was silent for about ten seconds and shook his head:
”Then let’s pretend that this matter is not there for the time being.”
……
Above the gray mist, Klein listened to Emlyn’s prayers and memorized the information about the magical items that the other party told him, while flipping over and over to examine the glove called “Spark”.
”Oh, so I have a glove for my right hand.” He let out a low laugh and muttered to himself.
After careful consideration, Klein gave up his attempt to immediately steal the spirit pollution of the “True Creator” within the “Eye of Total Blackness”, he did so to ensure his success, hoping to save the opportunity for the time when he could mix the “Secret Puppet Master” magic potion – the “Secret Puppet Master” magic potion. “According to Silver City’s records, even without the gray mist shielding, there is no problem operating this way, and with the gray mist, there will no longer be any accidents, even if it is the “True Creator’s” leftover spiritual pollution. Spiritual pollution.
”Usually can also use ‘kindling’ well, well, when you need to use it, you have to put the money, pocket watch and other magical items on the gray mist, to ensure that nothing can be lost …… In fact, even if you do not do so, the problem is also In fact, even if I don’t do that, it’s not a big problem. I’m a soothsayer, so if I drop something, I’m still afraid I won’t get it back. Oh, in normal combat, the left hand ‘writhing hunger’, the right hand ‘kindling’, just think about it, feel quite powerful …… “Klein retrieved his thoughts and found that the sequence 5 ‘Worming Hunger’, the Thoughts, found that Sequence 5 “Secret Puppet Master” magic potion related has been basically ready, except for the two more common auxiliary materials.
He nodded his head and said quietly to himself:
”Just wait for the ‘Faceless Man’ magic potion to be thoroughly digested!
”Then, take the boat of Mr. ‘Admiral Above the Stars’ or ‘Inverted Hanging Man’ and go to the easternmost part of the Sunia Sea to look for mermaids.”
