German Sparrow … The blood vessels on Dorian's forehead throbbed when she heard that. She couldn't help but clench her fists as her body tensed up for some baffling reason.
Being in Pritz Harbor, be it actively or passively, he knew more about the various rumors at sea than the citizens of Baekeland who relied on the newspapers to learn about them.
Over the past few months, he had been hearing about German Sparrow from different channels. From the moment he killed Steel Maveti to severely injuring Vice Admiral Ailment Tracy and successfully hunting Admiral of Blood Señor, all these stories were tinged with madness.
He left the sea and came to Baekeland? Furthermore, he didn't change his craziness! Dorian hid the fear and wariness that subconsciously rose in his heart. He looked at his student and said in a deep voice,
"Try not to contact this bounty hunter in the future.
"He will cause trouble one day, and it won't be long."
Teacher is indeed experienced and has sharp eyes. She instantly saw through Mr. World's true nature … Unfortunately, I'm already a member of the Tarot. There's no way I can not contact him … Fors adjusted her state of mind and nodded sincerely.
"Yes, Teacher."
Dorian calmed her emotions and took a deep look at her former student and current enemy, Louis Wien.
However, this Traveler could no longer speak. He didn't even have a shred of spirituality left in him.
After a few seconds of silence, Dorian leaned back and looked at Fors.
"Did you just say that you paid 10,000 pounds as a bounty?"
He wasn't aware of Fors's financial situation. All he knew was that this student was a best-selling author and likely earned quite a bit of remuneration. Furthermore, the few Beyonder circles she usually mingled with seemed pretty good. There were always transactions with high remuneration, so it wasn't too shocking or unacceptable for her to save up 10,000 pounds.
Fors shifted her body guiltily.
"Too much of a premium?"
She deliberately used this rhetorical question to hide the fact that she had falsely reported the price, so as to appear inexperienced in such matters.
Dorian shook her head.
"No, it's too cheap.
"It's so cheap that I can't help but suspect that the German Sparrow has other motives."
As a member of the battered House of Abraham, he was always on high alert.
To use the professional terminology of various clubs and gatherings, this is called a membership price … Fors lampooned inwardly and "frankly" said,
"There are other agreements, including all the items on Louis Wayne will belong to him and I will provide him with some effective help. I also promised that if he needs cash in the future, I will compensate him with around 3000 pounds."
"That's barely reasonable." Dorian nodded slightly. "Normally, the price of assassinating Louis Wayne, who has the support of the Aurora Order, is at least thirty thousand pounds. Hmm, if there are other circumstances, the price will increase."
Back then, Mr. World had used the demigod-level powers from Leymano's Travels … This is likely an additional situation … An Aurora Order saint? Fors, who had been nurtured in the Tarot, was no stranger to the structure of the Aurora Order.
She didn't hide her frown and said, "From the looks of it, it's indeed a little abnormal. Perhaps, he's in urgent need of money?"
Dorian thought for a moment.
Perhaps he's just more concerned about Louis Wayne's Beyonder characteristic. To Beyonders of other pathways, this can be used to create rather useful mystical items. As long as he finds a suitable Artisan …
Dorian paused for two seconds and added, "There's no need to pay too much attention to it.
Just stay away from him in the future.
"Perhaps he has long had his eyes on Louis Wayne, and he's using the information you provide to take action. This way, he can even earn some extra income."
Dorian didn't continue the topic as she took out a fist-sized crystal ball of purified water from her pocket.
"It's made of star crystal. It can effectively enhance your astrology."
Amidst the light outside the window, the crystal ball produced resplendent "waves."
Without waiting for Fors to reject it, Dorian chuckled and said, "Louis Wayne is my enemy.
The remuneration for getting rid of him should be paid by me. I don't have that much cash at the moment, so I can only use some items to make up for it. "
"No, there's no need …" Fors shook her head in a half-hearted and half-hearted manner.
The truth was that when she planned to get rid of Louis Wayne, it was purely to avenge her teacher. She didn't consider the subsequent rewards, but against her will, she couldn't reject it.
Dorian's expression turned serious.
"Are you trying to make me feel guilty and uneasy?
"Don't worry. I'm still quite rich."
Fors took the opportunity to nod.
"Alright."
Dorian revealed a smile again.
"Also, I've brought you the potion formula for 'Scribe'. You can gather the corresponding ingredients while digesting the 'Astrologer' potion. Hehe, I'll give you one of the main ingredients, Asman's Brain. The rest is up to you."
Asman was a monster that only existed in ancient legends. It resembled an unprotected human brain, enough to fill a room. Not only could it create terrifying illusions, but it could also cause its attackers to die from its own attacks.
As she spoke, Dorian took out a yellowish-brown parchment and handed it to Fors.
Fors took it gratefully and quickly scanned through the main materials.
"A complete Brain of Asman, a cursed object of an ancient vengeful spirit …"
I hope I can gather the remaining ingredients before I finish digesting the Astrologer potion … Just as Fors rolled up the goatskin, she saw her teacher, Dorian, take out a pure gold box from his suitcase.
After removing the wall of spirituality, Dorian opened the lid and said,
"Without the Gold Isolation, Asman's Brain will continuously affect you, causing you to hallucinate until you lose your mind."
Inside the square box was a cluster of pale, wrinkled, and semi-transparent objects. They were only one-fifth the size of Louis Wayne's head.
As expected of a family with a long history … Fors thanked her sincerely once again and took the pure gold box. She skillfully closed the lid and sealed it with a wall of spirituality.
Dorian didn't stop. Instead, she found an excuse to get Fors to leave while she set up a ritual to summon the Void Creature, Malmax, who liked music. She then took out two stacks of documents from his spherical body.
The three items from before were prepared for Fors after he received news of Mr. Door. Therefore, he had placed them by his side ahead of time.
"These are two properties in Baekeland. One is in Hillston Borough, and the other is in Cherwood Borough. They're in pretty good locations. The total price should be 6,500 pounds. You can sell as much as you want," Dorian said with a smile.
Although the House of Abraham had fallen, as an angel family with a long history, it still had a lot of inventory, including land, forest, real estate, manors, and mines. However, Dorian only controlled a part of it, and the rest belonged to various small families.
The house I'm renting now costs 2,500 pounds on the market. The area is okay, but the location is average … The things that the teacher gave me today really add up to 10,000 pounds … Fors couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
…
Inside the Holy Wind Cathedral, Deep Blue Officiant Randall Valentine looked at the Mandated Punisher deacon opposite him.
"Any results?"
The newly appointed Archbishop of Baekeland was a middle-aged man with an astonishing aura. His hair was dark blue and thick, and his earlobes were rather large. His eyes seemed to contain lightning and storms at all times.
The Mandated Punisher deacon standing in front of his desk was a thin middle-aged man. He wore a modified captain's hat, and there was nothing special about his appearance. There was only a greenish-black tattoo in the shape of an anchor around his neck.
The gentleman replied respectfully:
"Your Excellency, we've already captured a few people who participated in the gathering.
"But they don't know who the others are, much less the identity of the person who assassinated Mr. X.
"According to their description, the assailant is about 1.6 meters tall, and there's a high chance that it's a female. We can't eliminate the possibility of it being a short man."
Randall held back his anger.
"What do you plan on doing next?"
"As we are temporarily unable to know who Mr. X invited to the gathering, and females about 1.6 meters tall are rather common, our plan is to relax our vigilance on the surface and only keep an eye on a few suspicious targets. We will then turn the captured people into informants. Without us pressuring them, the lunatics from the Aurora Order will definitely take the initiative to seek out the murderer and avenge Mr. X. They should have a general area of investigation. This way, not only will we be able to find the assassin, but we will also be able to find clues to the Aurora Order, "the thin middle-aged man explained in detail.
Randall nodded in thought.
"Roy, remember to apply for a Grade 1 Sealed Artifact when you take action.
"The situation at the scene indicates that the Aurora Order has at least one saint in Baekeland. And the assassin's strength is stronger than an ordinary Sequence 5. He also has a demigod backing him."
"Yes, Your Grace." Roy Wellington clenched his right fist and punched his left chest.
…
"Dwayne, you always exceed my expectations. It hasn't been long, but you've already completed the study of the Book of Wisdom of The Revelation of Evernight." Inside Saint Samuel Cathedral, Bishop Elektra closed the Holy Bible in his hand and smiled at the pious tycoon with white sideburns and deep blue eyes.
Klein smiled.
"This is what a believer should do.
"Next up is the study of the Saint's Letters?"
"Yes, which saint do you plan on starting with?" Bishop Elektra asked.
Klein looked around and chuckled.
"Saint Samuel it shall be."
Bishop Elektra wasn't surprised as he introduced seriously.
"Saint Samuel was the archbishop of the Church in Baekeland during the Fourth Githron Sostel Empire. He made outstanding contributions to the spread of the Goddess's faith. He entered the divine kingdom before his death and became an angel …"
As he spoke, he flipped to the corresponding Saint's Letter.
At this moment, Klein's spiritual perception was triggered. He felt that there was a deep malice and evil intent spreading upstairs.
Then, a cold and deep feeling extended from the ground, calming everything, and the church returned to its previous tranquility.
Bishop Elektra snapped out of his daze and said to Dawn Dantès, who hadn't noticed anything.
"Sorry, I just thought of something else."
