1, 2, 3, 4, 5 … It looks like it has twelve pairs of wings … According to the descriptions in the books of the various Churches, this is the highest-level angel … Fors tried her best to recall the scene she had seen in her half-awake state. She was shocked, but at the same time, it wasn't that shocking. It was as though she had encountered something shocking that she had never encountered before.
It's not surprising that Mr. Fool has an angel serving him. From the fact that Miss Justice and Mr. The Hanging Man occasionally refer to "Him," it's conceivable. From the fact that "He" can isolate the influence of the full moon's ravings, it's possible to infer … However, my request is just to interfere with Mr. Lawrence's divination, and "He" actually got an angel to protect me. Isn't this too extravagant? Or is this a routine operation for "Him"?
Uh, there's another question. Why are the feathers on the angel's wings black? Does this indicate degeneration or death? What's Mr. Fool's true identity? Which great existence is he? The Death that was rumored to have perished in the Pale Era? "He" wants to resurrect himself through the Tarot Gathering? Fors suddenly took a deep breath. She was no longer worried that the gentleman named Lawrence would use divination to discover that there was a problem with her.
Thinking that she had already joined the Tarot, she smiled bitterly and muttered silently:
I can only do as Rosell The Great said. I'll take it one step at a time …
Reining in her thoughts, Fors once again humbly thanked Mr. Fool. Then, according to the normal procedures of the ritual, she extinguished the flames of the three candles and dealt with the altar that was filled with all sorts of items.
…
Above the gray fog, Klein temporarily threw the matter regarding the House of Abraham to the back of his mind.
According to his original plan, he conjured a pen and paper and wrote the next divination statement:
"Daisy's current situation."
Putting down the pen, Klein stacked Daisy's vocabulary book and the piece of paper with the divination statement together and held them in his left hand.
Then, he leaned back in his chair and entered a Cogitation state. He silently recited "Daisy's current situation" over and over again.
After a total of seven times, Klein fell asleep. His vision was first pitch-black with a hint of red before it turned gray.
A series of images flashed before his eyes. Some were coherent, some were jumpy, and some were illogical.
Klein saw Liv's youngest daughter, a thirteen-year-old girl who was repeatedly scalded by the steam but still insisted on ironing clothes. A man wearing a heavy jacket and a grayish-black cap covered her mouth with a handkerchief from behind and dragged her into a fork in the alley.
Another man in the same attire grabbed her legs and lifted her up with his companion. They walked quickly.
Their target was the carriage parked outside the alley.
The whole process ended in less than two minutes, and by the time Daisy's sister, Freja, returned to find them, the carriage had already left.
…
In the carriage, a cold and sharp dagger was pressed against the muddle-headed Daisy's face, and filthy threatening words rang in her ears.
…
The carriage drove into Capim's luxurious villa.
…
Daisy was in a small, dark room, and the cries, screams, and curses of women echoed from time to time outside.
…
Daisy woke up and shouted for help, but someone opened the door and kicked her. She was in so much pain that she couldn't stand up.
Tears streamed down her face as she kept softly shouting the words "Mom" and "Freja."
…
Klein opened his eyes and realized that the paper in his left hand had crumpled into a ball at some point in time.
He had already confirmed that Capim was the mastermind behind the disappearance of many young girls and that he was the boss of a criminal organization.
But the problem was that such cases shouldn't and couldn't involve Beyonder powers that were too powerful. At most, there would be a few money-grubbing Sequence 7s, 8s, or 9s to help. It wouldn't make Klein feel a strong sense of danger through his spiritual intuition the moment he approached the villa.
Could it be that Capim himself is a Sequence 6 or even a Sequence 5 Beyonder? However, it's not difficult for a Beyonder at this level to earn money. There's no need for him to do such dirty and complicated things. He can just find the various gangs and collect protection fees from them. It's easier than this, and he won't dirty his hands … Could it be that Capim's human trafficking has some hidden agenda? As Klein pondered, he used the power of the gray fog to restore Daisy's vocabulary book to its original state.
After a few seconds of silence, he conjured another piece of goatskin and wrote a new divination statement:
"Saving Daisy is a dangerous matter."
After reading it carefully twice, Klein removed the spirit pendulum from his left wrist and let the topaz pendant fall onto the paper, nearly touching the line of words.
After calming himself down for a few seconds, he closed his eyes and silently recited the divination statement he had just written.
When the voice stopped, Klein opened his eyes and looked at the spirit pendulum in his left hand.
The topaz pendant was spinning clockwise at a high speed and a high amplitude!
It was an affirmation that saving Daisy was a rather dangerous thing!
But it's not completely hopeless. There's still a small possibility and opportunity. As long as I can grasp it … Klein interpreted the revelation given by the spirit pendulum.
He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and gave a self-deprecating laugh.
Wasn't I looking for an opportunity to perform?
That's right!
As a Magician, I still have to challenge some difficult matters. Otherwise, I should be called a Trickmaster and not a Magician.
Completing the seemingly impossible, even if the outcome is false, is the image of a Magician in my heart. As for whether it's one of the rules, it still needs to be confirmed …
Klein tapped the edge of the long ancient table and quickly made a decision.
The most difficult thing for him to save Daisy and deal with Capim was that he didn't understand him at all. He didn't know how many Beyonders were in the villa, or which pathway or Sequence they belonged to.
This made it impossible for Klein to make any targeted preparations.
And to a Magician, the first rule was "Don't perform unprepared!"
Many of the seemingly impromptu performances actually required a certain amount of preparation. For example, long periods of practice, or a deep understanding of how to divert attention.
In the name of a Blessed, should I get Miss Justice to help me investigate Capim's background? Klein seriously considered the solution to the problem.
But he quickly rejected this line of thought.
No, I won't be able to obtain detailed information. Although Capim is a tycoon who has connections with many important figures, he's ultimately not someone who can be brought to the surface. At most, Miss Justice can find out which nobles, Members of Parliament, and government employees he has close ties with, but she won't be able to figure out how many Beyonders are in his villa, what traps he has set up, or what the setup is like …
By following these connections and clues, Miss Justice might be able to find out what I want to know in a few weeks, but it's too slow. Saving someone is like putting out a fire. Any delay will result in a tragedy.
Klein's gaze swept across the surface of the long bronze table and the corner where the junk was piled up. An idea gradually formed in his mind.
On the one hand, I'll get Miss Magicians and her friend, Miss Xio, to investigate Capim's background and figure out which Beyonders he has connections with. They have good connections in East Borough, in many gangs, and in many Beyonder circles. On the other hand, I'll do it myself. I'll get the information I want from the servants or bodyguards who come out of Capim's villa using mediumship.
After finalizing the plan, Klein wasn't in a hurry to get Miss Magicians's help. He decided to give it a try himself first. Only then could he get her to inquire about certain matters.
In the blink of an eye, his figure disappeared from the towering palace above the gray fog.
…
After lunch, a man wearing a grayish-black cap and a thick cotton coat carefully left through the back door of Capim's villa. He walked all the way to a crossroads and got into a rental carriage.
"East Borough." He touched the dark red birthmark on his face and instructed the carriage driver.
The carriage began to move, and the man looked out the window in boredom, admiring the beautiful ladies and young ladies on the street.
If only I could kidnap them … The man let his imagination run wild as he revealed a regretful expression.
After leaving Iris Street, he suddenly shuddered, and his eyes became slightly dazed.
He knocked on the carriage wall and said to the coachman,
"Stop, stop! I forgot something. That's all. "
The coachman didn't dare to reprimand the ferocious man. He didn't even grumble as he stopped the carriage by the side of the street and let him alight.
After paying six pence, the man backed off a few dozen meters and entered a cheap hotel.
Without the need for identification, he paid for a room.
After entering, he only left the door ajar and did not lock it.
Then, the man sat on the edge of the bed expressionlessly. Suddenly, a transparent and illusory figure separated from his body!
It was Klein dressed as a worker!
He used the method of summoning himself to transform into a Spirit Body and possess the man's body, allowing him to walk to a convenient place for "channeling"!
After knocking the man unconscious, the Spirit Body Klein disappeared from the room. Not long after, the door was pushed open, and his corporeal body walked in again.
Using a wall of spirituality to seal off the area, Klein quickly set up a "spirit channeling" ritual, allowing the alluring scent of Amantha extract and Eye of the Spirit medicine to permeate the surroundings.
After finishing his preparations, he was about to begin "channeling" when he suddenly exclaimed and stopped.
He discovered that the Spirit Body of the unconscious man on the bed was under a mysterious and unknown restriction. If he were to forcefully "channel" his spirit, although there was a high chance of success, it would trigger the mark and alert a certain Beyonder!
This would alert the enemy!
What a strange Beyonder power … Very cautious, very careful … The matters that Capim is involved in aren't simple … Klein paced a few steps and frowned slightly.
He glanced at the unconscious man and suddenly chuckled.
"Do you think this will stump me?"
He quickly interrupted the spirit channeling ritual and once again summoned himself and responded to himself.
A few seconds later, his Spirit Body flew out of the candlelight and floated in the room once again.
Without any hesitation, Klein, in his Spirit Body form, suddenly went forward and possessed the unconscious man.
The man suddenly sat up and opened his eyes, looking rather dazed.
He stood up and walked to the front of the altar. Then, he chanted softly,
"The Fool that doesn't belong to this era.
"You are the mysterious ruler above the gray fog.
"You are the King of Yellow and Black who wields good luck.
