Upon hearing Audrey's affirmative answer, Lady Norma immediately laughed.
"What an honest child."
"I happen to know some very knowledgeable mysticism experts. Are you interested in chatting with them?"
"Sure, that's my wish. Praise the Lady." Audrey pretended to be pleasantly surprised as she drew a crimson moon on her chest.
Lady Norma smiled and nodded slightly.
"How about we have afternoon tea tomorrow?"
"No problem." Audrey's excited eyes had a hint of innocence.
After bidding farewell to Lady Norma and walking towards the living room, her smile gradually faded, and her temperament became tranquil and leisurely.
Her body language, the color of her emotions, and the detailed changes reflected by her Body of Heart and Mind indicate that she doesn't have any ill intentions, but she's rather nervous … From the looks of it, Lady Norma might really be a member of Psychological Alchemy … Yes, she was observing my expression and actions, but she was unable to adjust or hide her emotions. Perhaps, she's like Susie, also a Spectator. Unfortunately, she doesn't know that the person in front of her is a Telepathist … Audrey thought, half nervous and half proud. She couldn't help but move her feet forward and gracefully step in a straight line.
…
In Eichinger Stanton's house in Hillston Borough.
Klein's lips quivered a few times, but in the end, he didn't ask Stuart who his employer was or what he looked like.
He decided to try his best not to get involved in Emlyn White's matters.
Although he had heard from his own account that he was a law-abiding vampire, that was only limited to the content of his description. There were too many gaps in the first half of his life, and Klein couldn't be sure if he had really never harmed the innocent.
This way, he lacked the motivation to find Father Utravsky to rescue him. He was a Dawn Paladin who was rather good at combat and had the aid of a mystical item. Furthermore, he hadn't been weakened!
Furthermore, this would easily reveal his true identity to Father Utravsky and Emlyn White.
I hope he can get the approval of that priest who's very good at fighting as soon as possible and be released from prison after his "sentence" is served … Klein silently tapped four times in a clockwise manner for Emlyn White in his heart.
After dividing up the bounty, the detectives took their leave one after another. Klein was even escorted to the door by the great detective Eichinger.
Eichinger held his pipe and coughed lightly.
"There are still some suspicious points in the serial murder case that haven't been investigated clearly. Maybe there's an even more vicious person hiding behind the murderer. You have to be careful these days. Don't announce that you played an important role in this case."
From the looks of it, the official Beyonders also suspect that the gigantic Devil dog has an owner … Klein replied solemnly,
"I know, I also have this speculation."
"Mr. Stanton, you have to be careful as well. You're the organizer of the gathering, the main partner of the police."
Eichinger stuffed his pipe into his mouth and took it out again.
"Sherlock, I'll call you Sherlock. You can rest assured. Although I'm no longer young, I'm still an outstanding fighter, an outstanding sharpshooter, and I have formed an instinctive vigilance."
Furthermore, there's a high chance that you're a Beyonder of a fairly high Sequence. I just don't know which pathway you belong to … Klein thought for a moment.
"Mr. Stanton, you don't seem to be a native of Baekeland? Your accent is closer to Sivellaus County. "
"Yes, it's just like your East Coast Midseashire accent," Eichinger admitted frankly.
The two detectives immediately looked at each other and smiled, acknowledging each other's ability to observe things without batting an eyelid.
Before evening, Klein returned to 15 Minsk Street.
Yes, I now have 1,224 pounds in cash, 5 gold coins, and a small amount of change. Compared to when I first came to Baekeland, it's more than enough. However, a Sequence 6 Beyonder ingredient costs at least 1,500 pounds each. Sometimes, due to its scarcity and rarity, it might even double the price. And Beyonders who can obtain such items aren't of a low Sequence. It's impossible for them to misjudge the value and sell it at a low price, so there's no possibility of picking up a bargain …
Although the lady with the Artisan backing her has an extreme desire for the Black Emperor pathway's potion formula, I have to consider the speed at which she advances. When she was still a Sequence 9, it was almost impossible for her to spend a large sum of money to purchase a Sequence 6 formula in advance, unless she had a mine at home or opened a bank … Yes, I can't always be able to find a good deal …
Amidst his thoughts, Klein wasn't in a hurry to prepare dinner. He returned to his bedroom, drew the curtains, and went above the gray fog.
He had an idea that needed to be verified.
Sitting in The Fool's seat, he reached out and picked up the simple, brass Master Key.
According to the notebook of Abraham's descendant that he had obtained last night, he guessed that the other party had lost control on the spot because he had chosen to advance during the full moon.
Therefore, the Master Key's curse-like ability to make people lose their way in bad places, apart from being a remnant of the Beyonder characteristic that contained resentment and indignation, there was also a high chance that it had been corrupted by Mr. Door's illusory ravings.
"Then, what changes will it have during the full moon?" Klein mumbled.
He conjured a pen and paper and wrote down the divination statement that he had long prepared.
"Its performance during the full moon."
With a piece of paper in one hand and the Master Key in the other, Klein leaned back in his chair and gave a self-deprecating laugh.
I'm courting death again …
However, there shouldn't be too much danger this time. Mr. Door is far away from the real World and is lost in the depths of the darkness. Furthermore, I have the gray fog as a barrier.
Under such circumstances, the danger of divination was no different from directly divining the matter itself. The experienced Klein half-closed his eyes as his pupils turned deep.
"Its performance during the full moon."
…
After repeating it seven times, Klein fell into a dream.
In that gray, fragmented, and illusory world, he once again saw the basement where Abraham's descendant had died.
The flesh and blood here had long dried up, and the diamond-embedded silver pocket watch and the ancient-looking Master Key had yet to be stolen. They were still lying on the ground.
Suddenly, a sharp and hollow illusory voice echoed in Klein's ears.
It was like a thin needle had been inserted into his head. Bit by bit, it extended and poked, as though it was going to peel off his scalp!
This extreme pain jolted Klein awake as he suddenly sat up straight.
He saw the blue veins on the back of his hand protrude out before quickly calming down.
Hmm, it's much easier than spying on the Eternal Blazing Sun and eavesdropping on the True Creator's roars … Klein changed from pressing to knocking as he thought leisurely.
Of course, if he were in the outside world, he believed that he definitely wouldn't have such a reaction.
If Miss Magicians kept hearing such a cry for help, she would've long lost control … From the looks of it, the Master Key has caused the voice to become clearer because of the curse. That's not right. Father Utravsky should've spent the night of the Blood Moon with the Master Key. He clearly wasn't affected …
Perhaps, he had placed the Master Key in his bedroom while he was repenting in the hall outside. Hmm, only by coming into contact with the Master Key can one hear the cry for help during the full moon?
Phew, before becoming a High-Sequence Beyonder, I didn't even dare to listen in the real World … Just now, it seemed to be the word 'request for help' in ancient Hermes … Klein seriously recalled it a few times to confirm his listening results.
With regards to this, he could only twitch the corners of his mouth, unsure whether to laugh or cry.
This is a life-demanding cry for help in the truest sense of the word!
What a pity. If the bunch of people from Rose School could hear Mr. Door's cry for help on the night of the full moon, they, who already have cold and twisted personalities, would definitely explode one by one …
After carefully considering if there was a way to indirectly achieve this goal, Klein returned to the real World. According to his plan, he had dinner, changed his clothes, and left.
He took two transfers and arrived outside the Bravehearts Bar. All he did was walk around and leave without ordering any alcohol.
During this process, he discovered that Kaspars had returned.
After walking down a street, Klein specially boarded a rental carriage and got it to drive to Cherwood Borough.
Just as the horse started moving, an illusory figure appeared in front of him. It was none other than Miss Sharon, who was wearing a black regal dress.
"Are you ready?" Sharon asked coldly.
The small black bonnet on her head was firmly pressing down on her pale blonde hair. Coupled with her pale face and exquisite facial features, she had the beauty of a doll.
Klein answered frankly, "Not yet."
"Not yet."
"I'm still waiting for an item."
Sharon's blue eyes didn't waver as she said, "I've prepared a mystical item."
"I've prepared a mystical item."
Is that why you took on a bodyguard mission that costs a thousand pounds for three days? You had your eyes on the item, but you didn't have enough money? Klein smiled in enlightenment.
"Don't be anxious. The more prepared we are, the greater our chances."
Besides, I can usually use mystical items from the Sun domain. It can make up for my shortcomings … Klein added inwardly.
Seeing that Sharon didn't say another word, he took the initiative to say,
"I came here today to get you to cooperate with me in an experiment."
"What?" Sharon asked simply.
Klein said with a serious and trustworthy expression, "According to Marić's description, I believe that the effects of your curses are different.
"According to Maric's description, I think your curses behave differently. During the full moon, he was in so much pain that he couldn't fight because he had to endure the crazy bloodlust and bloodlust. You, on the other hand, were in a weakened state because you couldn't absorb human souls. Am I right?"
Sharon listened quietly and nodded gently.
"Yes."
"I don't have a solution for your problem at the moment, but I think it's possible to suppress Marić temporarily. For example, we could take the corresponding potion to put him in a state of no emotional fluctuations. That way, during that period of time, he won't be in pain and can fully participate in the battle." Klein explained his idea.
Sharon shook her head.
"No."
"This kind of medicine is no longer effective on him."
Already? In other words, it had worked before? Klein asked thoughtfully, "That's right.
"Why?"
"He used to inject too much. Even if we changed to another type, it would only be effective for the first three to four times. We can't find a new type anymore … "Sharon suddenly fell silent as she spoke, as if she had thought of something.
Hearing her words, Klein suddenly smiled.
"I have a different kind of tranquilizer. It came from that apothecary."
Seeing that Sharon didn't say that the sedative was ineffective, he clasped his hands and continued.
"I'll give you one first. Let Marić try it during the full moon. It's the full moon tomorrow night."
"If it's effective, let him drink two or even three at a time before the battle."
