Mystery: A Spark

At this moment, Audrey also raised her hand slightly and then said to Derrick:

“I have become a psychologist, but the Psychological Alchemy Society is unaware of this. I plan to delay it and let them find out later.”

"I will then request the formula for a Sequence Six Hypnotist from them and give it to you."

“Okay.” Derrick nodded to indicate that he understood.

He glanced at the other members, cleared his throat, and said:

"I would like to ask you all to help me find the formula for Sequence 6 of the Solar Pathway. The reward is negotiable."

He is no longer the only Solar Path Extraordinary in Silver City.

There are quite a few singers of Sequence Nine, and several Prayer of Light of Sequence Eight, which has greatly facilitated Silver City's exploration activities.

In recent times, the number of people lost in the explorations of Silver City has dropped to its lowest point in recent decades.

Therefore, Derrick is even more eager for formulations with higher sequences in the solar pathway.

The so-called "compensation is negotiable" means that even if he is unable to pay, he can still apply to Silver City.

As long as it's something Silver City doesn't have, then it's negotiable.

After Derrick stated his needs, Klein, controlling the "World" dummy, said in a hoarse voice:

"Everyone, I want a magical item, a magical item that will make it easier for me to kill people."

The other members looked at each other, none of them daring to answer.

Arthur, however, conjured a phantom image of a double-barreled pistol, and said with a strange smile:

"I have something here that should meet your requirements."

"This gun also has another name, called Abe-che.

"Famous Gun·Abe Kiri."

Chapter 215 Famous Spear Slays Evil

Abe cut! ?

What kind of name is this?!

Klein stared blankly at the afterimage of the double-barreled pistol in Arthur's hand, feeling a momentary confusion in his mind.

He naturally understood the meaning behind the gun's name, since in his previous life he had some knowledge of how swords were named in a certain country because of his love for fantasy works.

"切" is a suffix that means to chop or cut.

Weapons named after something like "Cut" usually mean that the weapon has taken the life of the corresponding person or caused damage, which is why they became famous and have their names passed down.

For example, Watanabe no Tsuna used Higekiri to cut off the wrist of the demon Ibaraki-dōji, so this sword is also known as "Oni-giri" (Demon Cutter).

There are also figures like Dojigiri Yasutsuna, who slew the demon Shuten-dōji, and Raikiri, who is said to have cleaved lightning, and so on.

The name Abe Kiri naturally refers to the fact that this weapon once killed a famous person with the surname Abe.

Furthermore, the fact that the weapon is a firearm rather than a sword indicates that this person was a famous figure from modern times.

Could it be that famous modern-day figure with the surname Abe? But when I time-traveled, he was perfectly fine... Klein frowned, realizing that things were not so simple.

He had talked to Arthur about time travel and knew that Arthur had come to this world earlier than him.

But now it seems that Arthur may have traveled to another time even later than him.

After all, when Klein traveled through time, someone else was still alive and well, and living a very comfortable life.

What's going on? Arthur might have arrived later than me, but he got here earlier? Klein controlled his expression, not revealing anything unusual.

Fortunately, Arthur named the gun Abe no Che, rather than something like "Kennedy's Smile," otherwise he wouldn't have discovered the time travel issue.

The name of Arthur's gun sparked Klein's thoughts.

However, the other Tarot Club members above the gray fog were completely baffled after hearing the name of the gun.

Derrick didn't think too much about it, because he knew he was not in the same place as the others, so he really thought there was a very famous gun in the outside world called Abe-che.

But everyone else was completely lost.

Confused, she asked, "If you're feeling lost, ask questions!" Audrey asked first out of curiosity:

“Mr. Tank, you said this gun is called the Famous Gun Abe-Cheer, but why do I feel like I’ve never heard of this name before?”

"Well, that's what I learned from some ruins. That's not important. What's important is the effectiveness of this gun." Arthur brushed the topic aside.

"What extraordinary abilities and negative effects does it have?" Klein asked in a hoarse voice, controlling the "World" dummy.

Arthur smiled and began to introduce them in great detail:

"As you can see, this is a double-barreled gun. Each barrel can hold six bullets, for a total of twelve bullets, and it has two attack modes."

"The first type is the normal burst fire mode, which can enchant the ordinary bullets loaded in the gun into exorcism bullets. These exorcism bullets are much more powerful than ordinary exorcism bullets."

Arthur paused, and seeing that everyone nodded to indicate they understood, he continued:

"The second type is the powerful Heavenly Punishment mode. Before using this mode, you must shout a slogan with a fanatical expression. In this mode, the user can consume their own spirituality to launch a powerful shot. At this time, what is shot is no longer a bullet, but a blazing and dazzling light."

"In this mode, Abe's first shot will cause all creatures in the vicinity to be temporarily blinded. However, he can only fire two shots at most, and it takes an hour for the gun to cool down. During this time, he can still use the normal shooting mode."

"In addition, when using the Heavenly Punishment mode, users can decide how much spiritual energy the first shot consumes. The more spiritual energy is consumed, the greater the power of Abe no Che's shot."

"And the second shot will be twice as powerful as the first shot, but it only requires the same amount of spiritual energy as the first shot."

"Therefore, how to plan one's spirituality while shooting is something that needs careful consideration, otherwise problems can easily arise in combat."

This gun perfectly meets my expectations. It not only completes my means of dealing with monsters like ghosts and demons after I used the Yangyan Talisman, but its power is also strong enough... Klein's eyes lit up as he listened.

Without hesitation, he controlled the "world" dummy and asked:

"This gun's extraordinary capabilities sound impressive, but what about its downsides?"

If the negative effects are not severe or can be easily handled, then he will take the gun even if it means going bankrupt.

"The negative effects of the Abe-kiri under normal carrying conditions and in normal mode are not serious. It will only make people feel dry mouth and throat, which is easy to deal with."

"After activating the Heavenly Punishment mode, you must kill a sinful person before activating the Heavenly Punishment mode again, otherwise the gun will explode."

"At the same time, users will easily arouse the disgust and hostility of those who have done bad things in the past, which may often lead to unnecessary conflicts. The solution is to let Abe bask in the sun for an hour," Arthur said, shrugging.

"Could you explain the specific scope of this sin in detail?" Klein asked, controlling "the world".

“It’s quite simple. When you carry Abe no Che, you can sense the degree of sin in others. However, this sense can be interfered with by some shielding abilities, so it’s not absolutely reliable. You’ll have to determine it yourself,” Arthur replied.

"I understand, the red-name detector..." Klein understood, and controlling "the world," he asked the question that concerned him most:

"What kind of reward do you want for this gun?"

"Are you sure you want to buy it?" Arthur asked with a smile.

“Of course, this gun’s extraordinary capabilities are quite impressive, and I have no reason not to buy it,” World chuckled.

"Hmm... I'm sure you've noticed as well. Once you use this gun, slaughter will follow you like a shadow," Arthur said, shrugging.

“Of course, that’s exactly what I wanted.” A cold smile appeared on the world’s face.

If the goal is to kill innocent people, then he certainly wouldn't want this gun.

But if it requires killing someone with sins, then Klein has no psychological burden.

Moreover, even if you don't kill the guilty after using the Heavenly Punishment mode, Abe no Kirito is still usable; at least the normal shooting mode remains unaffected.

“Well then, my reward is simple: twelve thousand pounds, and it’s yours.” Arthur leaned back in his chair and said calmly.

Wow~ Twelve thousand pounds!? Klein clicked his tongue in surprise.

Although he knew the gun wouldn't be cheap, the price of 12,000 was still far beyond his expectations.

Seeing the "world" remain silent, Arthur changed the subject and said:

"Of course, you can also choose another payment method."

"Oh? Tell me."

"That is, I will give you this gun to use first, but within three months you need to bring me three corpses of Sequence 6 Beyonders who have just died."

What is Mr. Chariot trying to do? Upon hearing this, Audrey felt the hairs on her body stand on end.

Fors also glanced at Arthur with great surprise and began to imagine whether this guy was conducting some kind of horrific human experimentation.

"What does he want the corpse of an extraordinary being for?" Klein asked, somewhat surprised, but still controlling the "World" dummy.

Does "just died" mean that the spirit of the corpse has not yet dissipated?

“That’s right.” Arthur thought to himself that Klein was indeed very knowledgeable, no wonder he was the crazy adventurer who would later carry out the live-killing and selling activities.

“I’d like to think about it some more.” Klein didn’t give a direct answer.

He doesn't have enough money right now, and if he uses corpses to pay off his debts, it will be difficult to find so many Sequence 6s in Backlund.

Even if they find it, the fight would be too loud and would easily attract the attention of the officials, making it difficult to send the body to the gray fog in a short time.

"By the way, does anyone know where there are mermaids?" After Klein advanced to the Faceless Man, he needed to start preparing for the advancement to the Master of Puppets.

So he plans to see where he needs to go next before deciding on Abe's repayment method.

"The Church of the Night and the depths of the Sunia Sea, those are the only two places I know of," Arthur said succinctly.

At sea? Wouldn't that be the perfect place for Abe no Che to shine? So this gun was specially prepared for me by Arthur? Klein automatically ignored the option of the Church of the Night.

Horus's situation is still unclear, so he won't rashly return to the church.

He observed Arthur's spiritual body discreetly, but couldn't discern anything, so he controlled "The World" and nodded without saying anything more.

After a brief silence, Alger, the "Hanged Man," looked thoughtfully at Miss Justice:

"I want to know the details of Duke Negan's assassination. What kind of payment do you want?"

Duke Negan is the Storm Church's representative in the Loen political arena. As someone closely associated with the Storm Church, Mr. "The Hanged Man" should know more about the inside story than I do. Why is he asking me instead? Audrey sensed something was amiss.

But after a little analysis, she understood Mr. Hanged Man's intention.
