Bang!
In the unreal sound, the illusory door composed of wind and light slowly opened.
Behind the door is deep darkness, countless indescribable and almost invisible shadows, rays of clear light containing vast knowledge, the thick gray fog above them, and an ancient palace overlooking the real world.
In the bedroom, Piero was shocked physically and mentally when he saw such a scene.
In the complex emotions mixed with fear, excitement, uneasiness, prayer, and self-blame and repentance, he unconsciously began to tremble all over.
When a stack of Loen gold pounds with gray background and black stripes appeared out of thin air on the "altar", Piero pursed his lips, lowered his head, and spoke in a low voice:
"Praise Mr. Fool."
When he looked up again, there was no illusory door in front of him, no strong wind shaking with natural force, and all he could see were the two candles on the table that had returned to normal.
It was as if the bestowing ceremony just now was just an illusion.
However, the extra pile of bills on the table reminded him that everything just happened really happened.
After extinguishing the candles and ending the ceremony according to the normal procedure, Piero slowly sat on the chair with a complicated look on his face.
This simple gifting ceremony is just part of the party transaction. I still believe in the sun... After repeating this thought several times in his mind, his mood gradually returned to calm, and his thoughts began to wander to other places:
Although he did not earn the price difference from this formula transaction, the "Hunter" magic potion formula he earned in vain was already a big profit... "Hunter" is very good at observing subtle traces, and his physical fitness in various aspects is also greatly improved. Improvement, this should also be of great help in learning painting... I don’t know if there is an extraordinary way that is more suitable for learning painting... I don’t know if I can go home this year...
After a while, Piero exhaled quietly and stood up.
He picked up the stack of banknotes on the table, counted them once, and after confirming that they were 21, he put them in his pocket, changed his shoes and went out.
[In view of the general environment,
He took a taxi to the Suhit Bank branch in the port area, and spent a one percent handling fee to exchange the Loen gold pound he had just received into an equivalent value of 5,000 Felkin.
As a large city on the coast of the Middle Sea, Tillis has a prosperous maritime trade. This type of banking business for foreign exchange exchange is very common, and even larger vendors have a certain demand.
Piero left the bank with the exchanged Felkin and went to the non-staff member under his supervision to pay the final payment for the potion formula.
…
After the "Tarot Club" ended, Valeela immediately held a sacrificial ceremony.
Because Klein had given instructions before, this time the sacrificial ceremony was quite simple——
There are no four food offerings of dice pie, paella, fenepot pasta and white bread, no need to burn herbs, anoint with holy oil, and no need to choose a specific time, except for the essential symbols and Honoring the name saves everything that can be saved. It is a "dual method" ceremony that is streamlined to the extreme.
Therefore, Valeera's sacrifice went particularly smoothly this time.
After the ceremony, she sat on a chair in front of the dressing mirror and recalled and summarized the contents of this "Tarot Session".
On the whole, this gathering was not much different from what was described in the original book:
The only one who submitted Russell's diary was Alger, the "Hanged Man";
Not surprisingly, Crane issued a mission to assassinate Intis ambassador Beclan Jean Martin;
During the trading session, "Justice" Audrey and "Sun" Derrick also reached a three-party deal with dragon data in exchange for the "Light Prayer" potion formula, still with the help of Klein.
Of course, there are still differences in details.
For example, there is no mission report of information related to the Secret Order. For example, Valeela also spent 210 pounds to buy the formula for the "Hunter" potion from Mr. "Tower".
It is worth mentioning that Valeela did not choose to accept Crane’s assassination mission.
service.
She had previously considered accepting this task in order to raise funds to invest in Coyom Company, but after Kang's Portland professor helped her fill the gap, Valeera no longer wanted to risk killing people.
Mainly because the assassination is too difficult.
Backlund has a magical item corresponding to the "Puppet Master", which can see the "spiritual threads" of people around her. This means that she cannot sneak close, and her strongest advantage is completely suppressed by the opponent.
It would be too dangerous to carry out an assassination under such circumstances.
Therefore, this task should be left to "Mr. A" to perform as described in the original work.
As for whether "Mr. A" will be killed because of the lack of the "Pain" witch to herd... Firstly, this is unlikely, and secondly, it is none of her business.
Anyway, there are many gentlemen and ladies in the "Aurora Society". If "Mr. A" dies, it is not impossible for another "Mr. V" or "Ms. D" to come.
Finally, Valeela completely recalled the formula of the "Hunter" potion:
"Sequence 9: Hunter
"Main materials: a complete red fierce ant queen, two serrated forearms of the giant knife beetle.
"Supplementary materials: 80 ml of red wine, 10 drops of red corn essential oil, 5 grams of poplar leaf powder, 10 grams of basil."
These auxiliary materials are either spices or medicinal materials, and they are all household items.
In this way, she had two complete potion materials in her hand - "Hunter" and "General Knowledge". It was time to guide Burton to become an extraordinary person.
Of course, the premise is that he volunteers.
…
Above the gray fog, Klein sat on the high-backed chair of "The Fool", not in a hurry to return to reality.
He was waiting to help Valeela transfer the money to purchase the "Hunter" potion formula.
During the short waiting time, he was not idle, but summarized what he had gained from this gathering.
There are quite a few.
From the diary submitted by "The Hanged Man", he learned the key information that "fate is not the subject of the fortune teller path", which was of great help to him in summarizing his "playing rules";
From the transaction between "Justice" and "The Sun", he learned about some of the abilities and authority of "Dragon King" Angelweed and her son "Dragon of Nightmares" Alsuhod, and thus associated them with Sealed item "0-08".
These were his two biggest gains, in addition to the knowledge related to the inheritance of extraordinary characteristics.
It didn't take long for Valeera to complete the sacrificial ceremony.
Klein pushed open the "Sacrifice Door", collected a small wad of banknotes scented with special ink, and placed them on the bronze table in front of him.
Before informing Mr. "Tower" to arrange the gifting ceremony, he subconsciously counted it carefully... Well, 21 10-pound banknotes, exactly the same.
After "gifting" the wad of cash with some reluctance, Klein returned to reality and continued to face life.
