Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Chapter 9 Assassin's Abilities

Joyce, who took off his disguise, bought a glass of Lie Ronzi, which cost one soule. This is a relatively popular wine. It was impossible to tell who was at the party.

He was holding a wine glass, sitting in an empty booth, and the two men next to him were chatting happily, completely oblivious to the fact that there was another person beside him.

Smelling the pungent smell of alcohol, he took a sip, like Erguotou mixed with water, Joyce frowned, and pushed the wine glass slightly away, expressing that he could not accept it.

It can be said that people and snakes mixed together in the bar, such as the two elder brothers beside him. They were drunk, one said that he once drank with the "Admiral of the Stars", and the other was even more outrageous, boasting that he had been a crew member of the "King of the Five Seas", participated in many naval battles, and defeated the enemy. Fuck the crap, which highlights his contribution as if he had become king of the seas.

In the small oak tree bar, there were two great talents, Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Young. Joyce almost couldn't hold back his laughter. He got up and went to the bartender to buy a glass of Vados, which cost two soli and three pence.

As soon as the golden, frothy Vados enters the throat, the aroma of wine and fruit overflows, making people feel that there is a reason why you are expensive.

But the wine has been bought, where is the party time? Nobody told me? It's too embarrassing for me to signal the bartender with my eyes just now... Joyce felt like a clown just now, and besides, he didn't find anyone who bought these two glasses of wine at the same time.

Could it be that I misunderstood... No, the time of the party must be hidden in the wine, do I have to drink it all?

Recall what "Tian Ping" said, there are no clues, continue to trace back...

There you have it, a card game.

The price of two glasses of wine is three soli and threepence, so the meeting time should be next Wednesday at three o'clock in the afternoon.

After figuring out a little secret, Joyce felt refreshed physically and mentally, and raised his glass to take a long sip.

Then, he knew why no one spent money to buy these two glasses of wine, because they only need to know the price of the wine, and then they can have a drink or leave directly, but he stupidly bought two glasses of wine and drank the...

After figuring out the key point, the wine he just drank suddenly tasted bad. He put down his glass and walked out of the bar door expressionlessly.

A carriage with an ordinary appearance but a luxuriously decorated interior was driving smoothly on the street. Passers-by on the road gave way one after another. Joyce leaned on the soft plush cushions in the carriage, his eyes were closed tightly, and he seemed to be sleeping, but he was actually sleeping. Summarize your performance.

In fact, there is nothing to summarize. Before he came to the bar, he didn't know that there was an extraordinary party today, so he didn't think about his own needs.

The instigator's potion formula has not yet been found, but this party obviously does not have a Beyonder with the ability to notarize, and the idea of ​​exchanging formulas or Beyonder knowledge was aborted before it even started.

The assassin needed the most suitable weapon, but following the principle of coming, he tried to ask how to restore his memory. After all, the potion formula that appeared in the original book was still very attractive.

Joyce took out the praying ceremony bought for five pounds and read it through. He could see that this was a very orthodox ceremony, but he didn't want to die yet!

The last acquisition of the ancient relics of the Fourth Epoch was naturally for the seat of the Tarot Club. If one bought an object corresponding to the red star on Origin Castle, it would be blood money.

So far, he has basically sorted out a series of problems from the time travel, and the next task: training ability, summing up the rules of acting, and digesting the potion.

At the same time, figure out the purpose of "Witch" Emily approaching her, and get the next potion.

Beyond that, Joyce found himself seemingly with little else to do.

As a nobleman who has just inherited the title, he has no definite position, and because of his father's unexpected death, he has left Bayam's social center for a while and has not announced his return. Therefore, he has time to do order something.

"You don't need to go back to the manor, just go directly to the training camp."

"Yes, my lord baron."

After the coachman Karl agreed, he quickly turned the front of the car around the Rose Manor, which was close at hand, and the carriage galloped towards the side and rear.

According to the laws of the Kingdom, nobles have long been banned from owning private armed forces. Of course, it is reasonable for decent nobles to have well-trained guards.

This law is well implemented in metropolises such as Backlund, but in colonies like Bayam, in order to always guard against the attacks of the rebels, private armed forces have become a good solution.

Lieutenant Colonel William Best is no exception.

The training camp is located in an open space not far from the manor, surrounded by solid walls, and the guards employed by the Best family are training. "Provocateur" Hunt taunted loudly from time to time:

"Hurry up! Faster! My eight-year-old daughter can run faster than you."

It turned out that his provocative ability was used here... Joyce kept smiling, refused Hunter's company, changed into his training clothes familiarly, and walked into an empty training room.

What does a real assassin look like? Hiding in the shadows, waiting for the opportunity to move, one hit is sure to hit, and then flee thousands of miles away. Or go on a rampage and kill everyone who sees him openly?

No, that's a different kind of assassin, moreover, they die faster.

According to continuous experiments, it can be concluded that the ability of the "Assassin" to hide in the shadows comes from the use of light, just like a mirror reflecting natural light. When the silhouette of a person and the shadow merge into one, darkness will swallow up all the light , it can subtly achieve the effect of stealth.

Due to the limitation of only Sequence Nine, "Assassin" had better not wear brightly colored clothes, dark colors are more suitable, such as night clothes.

In the corner of the training room, Joyce, who was hiding in the shadows, kicked his toes, and his whole body flew through the air like an arrow off a string, leaving a white mark on the neck of the iron puppet with the dagger in his hand.

The short-term lightness of the body and the instant burst of all the strength of the body, the addition of the two results in an effect of one plus one greater than two. It is surprising and powerful at the same time, but it still cannot match rifle bullets. It is a pity that the use of firearms has a high probability. Good for playing Digestive Potions.

Then, he did some physical fitness tests, and finally came to the conclusion that his strength had increased, his agility had been greatly improved, and his defense was still weak, no different from ordinary people.

Because it pays more attention to the improvement of Extraordinary's physical fitness, the "Assassin" potion does not have the ability to consume a lot of spirituality. In other words, it does not have any weird and mysterious side abilities, which will not undergo a qualitative change until the "Witch" of Sequence Seven. Yes, become a woman...

Why do I keep reminding myself of this!

After encouraging the guards who were sweating, and showing the approachable side of "Lord Baron", Joyce returned to Rose Manor.

After having lunch, I took a nap for a while, and when I woke up, I couldn't help but sigh: the life of an aristocrat is so simple and boring.

He randomly took out a book from the bookshelf, and the title of the book was written in Hermes language: "Travel of the Subconscious Mind".

Subconsciousness, this is the ability of the audience channel. He looked at the author's signature, Paulie Dellau, and thought about it seriously. He didn't have an impression, so he didn't care anymore.

Turning the pages of the book, the whole text is in Hermes. At this time, I would like to thank the original owner for his serious study of language courses, which helped him master the source of Hermes, ancient Hermes, and the language of the North Continent—the ancient Fusac language. .

The protagonist in the book is a ghost who can travel through dreams, and explains many psychological theories and conjectures to readers in the interesting exploration of dreams.

When he was watching, he heard someone knock on the door.

"Come in."

Sophia pushed the door and walked in, and said softly:

"Mr. Baron, tomorrow's itinerary has been arranged. Do you have any orders?"

Joyce thought that you are more professional than me in this area, and encouraged him:

"It's nothing, you did a good job... Well, help me find a box with a lock, it doesn't have to be too big."

"Yes, Monsieur Baron."

Leaving the manor, it is better to take the Extraordinary characteristics and notes left by the father. If you didn't know it before, forget it, but now that you have found it, you still feel uneasy about leaving it here. This is a mentality problem.

Just like it is written in the book: What the human subconscious fears the most is not death, but the worry about the unknown. When the content of the dream exceeds expectations, the dreamer will wake up...
