Mystery: Starting from Meeting Amon

Chapter 71 Blau's Opportunity

Monday afternoon, a little after 2:30.

Lewis arranged for Blau to handle today's affairs, while he hid in the attic, built a sealed spiritual wall, and waited for Klein's call.

At three o'clock, a deep red burst out in front of Lewis' eyes, accompanied by crazy whispers, and he soon came to the top of the gray fog.

Klein was sitting at the head of a long bronze table. Behind him was a palace that looked like a giant's residence.

Three figures gradually solidified and they sat in their respective seats.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool! Good afternoon, Mr. Fate! Good afternoon, Mr. Hanged Man! Good afternoon, Mr. Sun."

Audrey straightened her back proudly, raised her chin, and greeted everyone in the Tarot Club in a lighthearted tone.

"Dear Mr. Destiny, I wonder if your followers have received the two thousand pounds of transaction money?" Audrey resisted the urge to tell the story of Qi Lingos right away, and asked Mr. Destiny's followers with concern.

Lewis almost blurted out "received". He smiled faintly and said in a deep voice: "I didn't pay attention to this matter. Since my followers didn't tell me, it means that they should have received it."

He was extremely sure that the two thousand pounds had arrived long ago. Not only that, he also used the money to buy the ingredients for the "Lucky Man" potion and successfully advanced after taking the potion.

"That's great!" Audrey felt relieved and turned to look at the other side. "Mr. Hanged Man, there has been some progress in my investigation of Qi Lingos."

Alger, who had arrived in Backlund a few days ago, sat up straight, unable to hide his joy, and asked, "Where is he?"

"Unfortunately, he found out about our investigation and killed the people involved." Audrey summarized the key points and explained the subsequent ideas in detail.

Alger nodded slightly. His eyes first swept over "Destiny" and then looked at the top of the long bronze table.

“Dear Mr. Fool, if we find out the true identity of Qilingos and the important magical item he is trying to obtain, please allow me to recite your name and inform you through the ritual.”

Alger did not ask for help from The Fool and Fate again, but only expressed his wish to report back.

Alger believed that if the final temptation was sufficient, these two secret followers would definitely appear.

“Okay.” Klein leaned back in his chair, nodded slightly, and replied.

He didn't promise to help just because he listened, but he would certainly not be stingy with things like that.

Lewis smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "If my follower is really interested in this matter, I believe he will take action."

It would be best if Mr. Azik was really willing to help. Even if Mr. Azik was not willing to help, he could take Blau with him and make a fortune while ensuring his own safety.

“Please allow me to praise you in advance for listening.” Alger lowered his head and said humbly to The Fool.

Turning around, he thanked Mr. Fate with similar words.

Seeing Mr. Fate's promise, Klein breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Fate's followers took action, he believed that this operation would be successful.

Even if the worst happens, Mr. Fate's followers can easily save "Justice" and "The Hanged Man" so that nothing too dangerous happens. This is exactly what he wants to see.

Inside the towering palace above the gray fog, the scene was quiet for a few seconds. Alger took the initiative to say, “Mr. Fool, I am about to obtain a batch of Emperor Roselle’s diaries. I believe I will be able to present them to you at the next gathering or the next one.”

"Very good." Klein deliberately added a hint of joy to his tone and nodded slightly.

Since no one brought the Roselle diary today, the party quickly entered the subsequent transaction phase. Audrey asked to buy the pituitary gland of the seven-colored lizard dragon, and Alger mentioned for the first time those primitive islands that existed on the sea and were rarely visited by people. When the transaction was over, Klein pretended to be nonchalant and asked "Sun": "Is Silver City still offering sacrifices to the omniscient and omnipotent God?"

Lewis was shocked. He knew that Klein was about to try the sacrificial ritual. According to his memory, Klein's sacrificial ritual was modified based on the ritual of the City of Silver.

"Sun" Derrick was a simple boy. He lowered his head, his tone revealing pain that was difficult to conceal.

"Yes, the people of the Silver City don't know that the God is no longer here. We have been trying to get help from God since the day he abandoned us, but we have never received a response."

Having said this, Derrick looked at Mr. Destiny with gratitude.

Thanks to Mr. "Destiny", I finally knew the truth of the matter, even though the truth was so terrifying and desperate.

Klein also glanced at Destiny. He always felt that Destiny knew what he was going to do. He felt like he was being seen through.

Of course, he also knew that "Fate" was knowledgeable enough. If he sincerely asked "Fate" for advice, the other party would surely give him a corresponding answer.

Klein ignored that feeling and leaned back more leisurely. He half-closed his eyes and said, "Describe the process of your sacrifice in detail."

The simple-minded Derrick could not resist being fooled, and he explained in detail the sacrificial ceremony of the City of Silver, including but not limited to building an altar and chanting the Lord's name.

Klein listened silently. He deliberately let the gray mist linger around him. He nodded thoughtfully and said nothing.

He really wanted to ask "Destiny" about the lucky charm, and wanted to know the purpose behind the "Destiny Reverser", but due to the pretentiousness he created for himself, he did not ask until the end of the party.

……

Lewis sank under the gray fog, and with the crazy whispering in his ears, he gradually opened his eyes.

After removing the sealed spiritual wall, he had a new goal. This week he had to find a way to participate in Qilingos' hunting.

Of course, he also had to write a letter to Mr. Azik, which would be a safeguard.

"The Hanged Man holds the coordinates of some primitive islands. If I had known this last time, I would not have asked for the magical item last time. Instead, I would have asked for the locations of those primitive islands. This must be more valuable than a magical item that can dive." Sighing slightly, Lewis couldn't wait to try the power of the magical item in his spirit.

After the promotion, he could clearly feel that he had a better grasp of the magical item. As long as he was careful and didn't make any dangerous attempts, he should be able to use this magical item to deal with Qilingos.

After all, although Qi Lingos is one of the pirate generals, his own strength is only Sequence Six.

……

The sun shone obliquely on his body, and Brown pretended to be nonchalant while sipping his tea. Between three and half past three, he suddenly felt that Lewis was gone.

If his own misfortune had not been still suppressed, he would have suspected that Lewis had really disappeared out of thin air.

“It seems that Lewis has more secrets than I thought.

I should be more careful when interacting with him in the future and pretend that I know nothing. After all, secrets often mean danger."

After taking a sip of black tea, Blau suddenly felt a strange feeling, and an incredible scene appeared before his eyes.

"I sensed the opportunity to take the potion the moment Lewis displayed his power beyond his personality within the past week." Blau silently put down the black tea, feeling somewhat grateful.
