Mystery: Starting from Meeting Amon

Chapter 107 Cursed Crystal Ball

As if to verify Cherry's conjecture, Lewis's low voice came:
"Yes, Miss Triss is the male instigator. She used to have another male name, Triss."

Cherry hid behind the shadows, hiding her figure so that Lewis could not see the changes in her expression.

Lewis didn't want to disturb the other party from digesting the news. After all, this news was too unbelievable for Cherry.

Before becoming a transcendent, Cherry was just a dancer in Tingen who sold her body due to poverty.

He placed the dagger gently on the floor and sat quietly aside.

About ten minutes later, Cherry came over suddenly. Her voice was soft and gentle. She said, "Mr. Lewis, I hope tonight is a wonderful night. Please let me thank you for telling me so many things."

Lewis hurriedly built a sealed spiritual wall to block out the sound.

Until late at night, when Cherry left the window, he silently recalled the formula of the witch's potion in his mind:
Sequence 8 instigator, the potion formula is unclear.

Sequence Seven Witches: The extraordinary materials are all the blood of the Black Abyss Demon Fish and the eggs of the Agate Peacock; the auxiliary materials are 80 ml of pure water, 5 drops of golden mandala juice, three scales of the shadow lizard, and 10 drops of daffodil juice.

Sequence Six Joy: The extraordinary materials are a pair of eyes of a seductress and a silk gland of an adult giant widow spider; the auxiliary materials are 100 ml of pure water, 5 drops of black mandrake juice, all the remaining hair of the seductress, 10 grams of powdered Fenypot fly, and 5 grams of real mummy ashes.

Thinking back silently, Lewis couldn't help but think:

“If the price is right, I can sell these two series of potion formulas to Cherry.

The God of the Witch Path is a cross-dresser, which makes it difficult for female witches to become high-sequence. However, Cherry does not need to become a high-sequence. She only needs to stay at Sequence Six forever. "

Lewis pictured Sera’s image in his mind and closed his eyes silently, but it was a pity that Sera had been promoted.

In the morning, when it was completely light, Lewis took a tram back to Hilton District.

He bought a copy of the Backlund Morning Post and found the wanted information in the corner of the first page of the newspaper:

A thief is wanted. The gender is unknown, he is thin and seems to have stolen important items in his hands. The reward is 120 pounds.

Lewis frowned, he recalled the few people who tracked down Cherry yesterday, and they seemed to be shouting about catching a thief.

"120 pounds is not a small sum. Maybe the item Miss Cherry stole is very important."

The double-decker public carriage stopped and started, and about an hour and a half later, Lewis got off at Ort Street in the Hilton district.

He did not go back to the detective agency directly, but took out a coin and silently recited the divination sentence:

"It's dangerous to return to the detective agency."

The coin landed on the palm of his hand, tails facing up, which meant there was no risk in returning to the detective agency.

"There are a lot of people walking on Ort Street during the day. Normally, no extraordinary person would dare to mess around. Those people would just keep a close eye on me at most."

Lewis took off his hat, put on a bulky linen coat, and walked carefully back to the detective agency.

He hadn't noticed that anyone was watching him from the beginning until now, which made him feel more at ease and a little bolder.

Pushing open the door, the layout of the first floor was still the same as usual, with dust dancing in front of the coffee table.

Lewis went straight up to the second floor. He noticed that the drawer was opened a tiny gap, so he did some divination. "Sure enough, someone came to the detective agency. It should be the group from yesterday. They didn't find any trace of Blau, so they left."

Lewis breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that these people would just give up and not cause trouble again.

Otherwise, he might have to move away from Ort Street.

He could clearly feel that he should not stay in Backlund any longer. After all, in just three weeks since arriving in Backlund, he had experienced many extraordinary events and was suspected of having come into contact with a secret existence.

Moreover, he lived too close to Miss Windsor, a woman who was suspected of having contact with a secret entity, which made him feel uneasy.

After making the sealed spiritual wall, Lewis took out another lead box from his pocket. He opened it and took out the items inside.

"This is the extraordinary characteristic of the 'serial killer'. Perhaps we can make use of it. After all, it is also an extraordinary item."

With no prior information and no one having ever utilized this extraordinary property, Lewis was unable to confirm the item's usage and could only determine it through repeated attempts.

Fortunately, he is aware of the extraordinary abilities of the "serial killer", which can save him a lot of trouble.

This is because items with extraordinary properties are generally related to the abilities of this path.

After catching a mouse, Lewis began to experiment.

"I curse this rat with a terrible headache, and because of it it will break its hind legs on its way down the stairs."

After speaking to the extraordinary item, Lewis did not feel any difference in the item, which meant that the ability had not been activated at all.

"Failed? The ability of this item cannot be activated, or the curse requires a medium, a medium related to rats?"

Thinking of this, Lewis caught the mouse again, dripped a drop of mouse blood on it, and chanted the disgusting little curse again.

The spherical object, which was only half the size of a fist, underwent a strange change. Its surface seemed to be covered with a layer of blue light, appearing extremely evil.

When he released the mouse again, it squeaked and tried to escape from Lewis by running down the stairs to the attic.

Suddenly, the mouse fell on the middle step, howling miserably, and one of its hind legs was broken.

Lewis picked up the mouse again, and after several repeated experiments, he found that this item could indeed carry out vicious little curses, provided that these little curses were not too extreme.

For example, directly cursing a transcendent to death is something that is simply impossible.

In addition, there is about a 30% chance of failure each time a supernatural item is activated. After failure, the curse will be superimposed on oneself. Simply carrying it has no side effects.

Lewis put the item away, thought about it, and named it.

"It's called the Cursed Crystal Ball. Although this extraordinary item doesn't look very impressive, it may play an unexpected role at a critical moment."

As usual, Lewis opened the door of the detective agency and waited for today's business.

After 2:30, the door of Lewis Detective Agency was locked. He was in charge of building a sealed spiritual wall and waiting for Klein's call.

This week's Tarot Club is about to begin.
