Erudite … This Sequence's name sounds a little powerful … The Reader pathway's Sequence 7 is called Knowledge Keeper or Detective. It's a "job" that focuses on grasping knowledge and reasoning abilities. At most, it comes with decent combat and the ability to use machinery, so it's not considered powerful. But at Sequence 6, there seems to be a qualitative change, especially in the field of Beyonder combat … From the looks of it, every Beyonder pathway below High-Sequence Beyonder has such a node, but it's not fixed at a certain Sequence. For example, the Seer pathway is Sequence 7 Magicians … Klein drank a mouthful of hot coffee and didn't probe into the secrets of other Sequences.
He smiled and said, "Mr. Stanton, you seem very relaxed. You're not nervous or worried at all."
Eichinger didn't answer directly. He put down his knife and fork and took out his pipe.
"You don't mind, right?"
Actually, I do mind, but the pollution and fog in Baekeland are already so serious. A few more puffs of second-hand smoke won't make it worse … Klein shook his head and smiled.
"Does this help you think?"
"To be more precise, it's a habit. I'm used to doing this every day after breakfast." Eichinger fixed his pipe and took a deep puff.
As he exhaled the smoke, he sighed.
"Fear, nervousness, and worry can't help us face threats. In that case, why can't we relax a little? The brain will be more active because of this. My assistant was too easily worried, which resulted in this fatal disaster. Sigh … "
Eichinger glanced at Kaslana and continued, "Besides, our opponent is a Desire Apostle.
"Furthermore, our opponent is a Desire Apostle. Emotions that are too strong must be forbidden."
Having said that, he chuckled.
"Most importantly, it's not like we don't have any other way to lock onto the Desire Apostle."
"What way?" Kaslana put down the last piece of bacon and asked seriously.
Eichinger took a puff from his pipe and laughed self-deprecatingly.
"When discussing such topics, I still prefer an easy chair.
"Apart from having a premonition for danger, Devils aren't good at divination or foresight. Therefore, if the Desire Apostle wants to find out who his main targets for revenge are, he'll definitely take the initiative to investigate the situation and gather information. Otherwise, how would he know that a group of private detectives have made outstanding contributions to the serial murders? How would he be able to accurately lock onto you and me?
"In this process, he'll definitely interact with many people. Even if he disguises himself, he'll still leave some traces. Combined with the blurry images provided by the Machinery Hivemind, he'll be able to form clues.
Similarly, if he wants to attack me, he has to figure out where I live, what my daily routine is, and if there are any powerful official Beyonders protecting me. This requires a long period of observation and investigation. Similarly, he has to interact with other people and fixed locations. Heh heh, once there's interaction, there will be clues.
"One of my favorite saying is: Those Who Who Who Leave will Leaves."
Then, he said, "I like." Then, I Like. "Only, like, like.., like.," ", one, like., like.
".," Erin, "," to say, ",", ",", of "," "," "" "" "" ", and", "I". "
Last time, he was still in Tingen.
Kaslana, whose cheeks were slightly drooping, sighed.
"As expected of a great detective. I didn't think of these things. Your observation and thinking skills are admirable."
Eichinger smiled in response.
"Everyone has their own area of expertise. In terms of pure combat, I will be defeated by you over and over again.
"Sherlock should have thought of what I just said. He also has outstanding observation and reasoning skills. He is an excellent detective."
Actually, when you spoke so confidently just now, I felt a little ashamed for some reason … Klein squeezed out a smile.
"No, you're a real detective, and I'm still far from that."
"You really are a humble young man." Eichinger sighed.
He smiled and said, "That's right.
"Next, we will start from these aspects. You will need to use your own resources and information channels."
Apart from the Tarot, a third of my resources and channels in Baekeland come from you … Klein forced a smile and replied,
"Alright."
Apart from the Beyonder gathering at Eye of Wisdom, the only ones he could find were Marić and Miss Sharon, the vampire Emlyn White, and Father Utravsky.
With the Machinery Hivemind secretly protecting me, Miss Sharon and Marić have to be eliminated … I can meet that vampire Emlyn. He's now considered half a believer of Earth Mother and is under the protection of Bishop Utravsky. He won't be targeted by the official Beyonders … Klein instantly thought of a direction.
Kaslana fell silent for a few seconds.
"No problem."
Klein smeared the remaining cream on the last bit of toast and chewed it unhurriedly before asking, "Mr. Stanton, you previously mentioned the activation of a certain Sealed Artifact. Can it help us deal with the Desire Apostle?"
"Yes, the Devil dog was found and surrounded last time. It played a crucial role," Eichinger replied frankly. "Its code name is 1-42."
"1-42?" "Yes. It played a crucial role when the Devil dog was found and surrounded," Eichinger replied frankly. "Its code name is 1-42."
"1-42?" A Grade 1 Sealed Artifact is highly dangerous and has limited uses. Even the diocese of Baekeland can only preserve one or two of them … The corresponding description flashed through Klein's mind as he asked with interest, "What kind of item is it?
What abilities and negative effects does it have? " What abilities and negative effects does it have? "
Eichinger smiled.
"This is a secret of the Church of the Evernight Goddess, so I'm not sure. I only know that it wasn't originally in Baekeland. It was sent here urgently because of the serial murders.
"It's said that it's a silver full-body armor stained with dark red blood. It once caused the destruction of a small city, and more than a hundred thousand people died because of it."
"Cursed Armor?" Klein returned with a question by naming it.
Eichinger exhaled a mouthful of smoke and shook his head solemnly.
"Perhaps it's not a curse. Some people call it Crazy Armor, Bloodthirsty Armor. Our Church has once guessed that the blood stained its surface might have come from a deity from an even more ancient era.
"When it was first discovered, there was nothing unusual about it. It was just treated as a simple antique, sold and collected.
"However, as time passed, those who came into contact with it died one after another. Their deaths were extremely horrifying, and they were almost dismembered. After that, with it as the center, death spread outwards. There was no longer a need to come into contact with it, and a small city was destroyed because of it.
"This happened at the beginning of the Fifth Epoch. The Nighthawks are in charge of the aftermath."
As expected of a Beyonder from the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom. He knows enough history and Beyonder matters … Klein praised silently.
Kaslana, on the other hand, asked worriedly.
"Will it put us in danger?"
"The Church of the Evernight Goddess has definitely found the correct sealing method, but for us, it's best not to come into contact with them if possible," Eichinger said, half consoling and half reminding.
After breakfast, Klein and he entered the living room where the battle had taken place, while Kaslana went to the bathroom first.
Looking at her back, Klein said thoughtfully, "That's right.
She seems to be a Beyonder of the Arbiter pathway?
"Your observation skills are indeed outstanding." Eichinger sat in a reclining chair.
As Klein walked to the sofa, he muttered in puzzlement.
"This pathway is strictly controlled by the royal family, the military, and the ancient nobles. Formulas and ingredients rarely appear in the outside world. Does Kaslana have such a background?"
Eichinger smiled.
"Obviously.
"But at this stage, she hasn't taken the initiative to mention the corresponding matter. This means that there's indeed a reason why it's inconvenient for her to speak of it."
With a smile in his eyes, he looked at Klein, as though saying: Aren't you the same?
Klein laughed dryly and sat down.
After a while, Kaslana came to the living room and continued discussing the Desire Apostle with Klein and Eichinger.
As she spoke, her expression suddenly turned gloomy, and she sighed.
"This is the most dangerous matter I've ever been involved in. I don't know if I'll survive in the end. If — if I'm killed by the Desire Apostle, I hope that my tombstone will have this sentence:
"She had a great mother."
Kaslana's voice gradually softened, and there was a hint of gentleness in her hard and unapproachable demeanor.
Eichinger nodded in agreement.
"She's also the most dangerous enemy I've ever faced."
He then smiled.
"If I die because of this, and you're still alive, are you willing to help me send my relics to Lenburg, to the Holy Temple of Knowledge?"
… Don't raise flags like crazy! Klein's mouth was half-open, unsure of how to stop the two detectives in front of him.
"No problem, but I hope that this day will never come." He tried his best to resolve the situation.
Isengard glanced at him and asked curiously, "What's that?
"Sherlock, what about you? If you're killed by the Desire Apostle, what wish do you want others to help you fulfill? "
… Resurrect me! Klein sighed and said, "I wish to be buried in a nice cemetery.
"I hope to be buried in a beautiful cemetery. It's best if the body is whole and sprinkled with holy water and fresh flowers …"
The core meaning of his words was:
No cremation!
The three of them fell silent for a moment until the doorbell jingled outside.
The person who came was the deacon of the Machinery Hivemind named Ikanser Bernard. His hair stubbornly squeezed out of the brim of his hat, giving him an indescribably messy look with his deep and masculine features.
This time, he didn't take the strange silver mirror named Arrodes. It was unknown where he had stuffed it.
If there's a chance, I wouldn't mind using that magic mirror to see how my loyal and humble servant will react … Klein thought.
Ikanser didn't enter the door. He stood there, looked at the trio of detectives, and said in a low but rapid voice, "Mr.
