Shade checked the small pistol in his hand, and then looked at the blonde girl who was helping to check the books next to Miss Aurora.
As a believer of the old god [The Forgotten Old Man] and the current supreme leader of the [Order of the Forgotten], this pistol that manipulates memory is the most suitable for her to use.
Of course, Sirius wanted to refuse, but Shade explained:
"If I hadn't gotten that [Star Trace], I might have kept it. But now I have an excellent long-range attack weapon, and I don't want to carry a lady's pistol with me when I go out. In this way
, the people in Tobesk will despise me even more, as a detective who relies on the duchess for his livelihood."
The girls all laughed when they heard this. Miss Benenice gave Sirius a gentle push, and then the latter took the relic.
The relationship between the blonde girl and Shade is very unusual, and Shade does not need her to thank her. There will be a long time to come, and there will be more and more stories for everyone.
Shade didn't intend to keep those relics here, and he didn't have time to think about these dangerous things all the time. The relics that could be used were chosen by the witches respectively. For the remaining dangerous relics, Megan would report them to the Witch Council.
It was claimed that it was found in the family's old house. If the Parliament is not interested, St. Byrons, which is famous for its relic storage, should not refuse.
In addition to these things related to ring magicians, there are also letters between Laplace Howard and organizations such as [Order of the Drowned] [Tyranny Club] [Society of Truth] [School of Blood] [Order of the Dragon Eater], etc.
All of them were missing, probably destroyed by him in advance.
But he also left a large amount of property. In reality, the real estate deeds of the central island of Green Lake were given to the Green siblings. However, the cash, jewelry, and antiques he left behind were still a large amount. This person
Fortune tellers should be very good at accumulating wealth. Even if it is just a rough estimate, Miss Benanis thinks that this is far more than the wealth she has accumulated.
But Shade still chose to share these with Megan and Audrey, and even if the witch insisted that he not want it, he would never agree. In the end, the two or three people agreed to keep most of the property, and Shade would directly use it when he needed money.
Ask Megan to withdraw money. A small number of gold and silver vessels of low value were sold, and Megan agreed to let her handle it.
The cash part was about 23,000 pounds. Meghan was not interested in this "small money", so Shade didn't have to think about her share. So Shade planned to donate 5,000 pounds of it to the local church as Green
The cost of rebuilding Lake City after the disaster and comforting the refugees can also be regarded as Edwards' atonement.
The remaining 18,000 pounds were given to the doctor and the priest, two thousand each, as a thank you for their willingness to come and help. Although they had their own purposes, they all really helped Shade. The last 14,000 pounds were given to Shade.
Keep it for yourself to fill his not rich wallet.
This cash is only a small part of the fortune teller's property, and even antiques and gold and silver jewelry are only a small part, expensive alchemical equipment and materials, those potions and alchemical items he made himself, as well as his divination notes and personal horoscopes.
Pictures, every piece is priceless.
But Shade didn't plan to sell these, and he wasn't very short of money. If these items were sold, they would never be there again, so it was better to leave them where they were. Even the proceeds from selling ordinary items, he planned to continue investing in Miss Sylvia's business.
The young witch has planned to start mass-producing and selling those fabrics after she returns.
"You don't need to invest additional money in me. Margaret has a lot of support."
After hearing Shade's plan, Miss Sylvia didn't want his money, so Shade explained his thoughts:
"This is not to support your commercialization, but to support your research on high-end products. The feel is very good, and other aspects of touch are also excellent, but there should be room for improvement."
A smile appeared on her face and she patted Shade gently.
This afternoon, the group of people just managed to catalog and classify the items left by the fortune teller, but the subsequent processing will not be simple. Just talk about the large number of slates and sheepskins that made Shade's scalp numb.
Paper, manuscripts and a very small number of printed books, Xia De had to check one by one to see if they were what he needed.
He wanted to learn many things from Laplace Howard's research. The other party studied the seals and the First Fire on the island, and might know the locations of other First Fire flames;
The other party studies human body refining. Although Shade will not touch those taboo fusion experiments of fishmen, demons, and dragons, he is interested in the content of making one into one and shaping flesh and blood;
The special ritual array based on the Sun, Moon and Stars created on the back of the All Things Impermanence card needs to be explored for its purpose and where the fortune teller has used this ritual. Miss Danister is still waiting for news;
Howard's research on the Philosopher's Stone will fill in the gaps in Shade's alchemy. Next time, Shade will not want to use up the precious Philosopher's Stone so easily;
In those alchemy notes, there is indeed a method for making "butterfly cards", but the steps for making such blank cards are extremely complicated, and Shade must ensure that he can learn it;
Although the research on the elixir of life is not as good as the "Secret of Immortality" left to him by Miss Violet and Miss Theresa, it is not without the need for research;
The method of summoning demons and the origin of those angelic bones might help doctors and priests, and that secret knowledge was not easy to find elsewhere;
Finally, and most importantly, the information about doomsday, disaster, and other chosen people will directly affect Shade's subsequent adventures and explorations. Luvia should also be interested in these contents. The third chapter of ""
After all, we are only halfway through the Sixth Age epic.
【There is also divinity.】
"Yes, there is divinity."
Laplace Klein Howard's collection contains a large amount of information related to the departed old gods, some of which are ancient documents of unknown origin, and many are rural rumors and regional legends. Shade
It's not clear why the other party collects this information, but this information is very important to him.
Because during the Green Lake-Lunar Eclipse incident, he continuously obtained divinity from the "God of the Deep Sea Drowned" and the [Silver Moon Library], so even now after being promoted to the seventh ring, he still has two drops in his soul.
Divinity is shining brightly.
Although it seems that there is no lack of divinity, considering that once a conflict with the evil god breaks out, the lack of divinity means that there is no power to fight back. And judging from the current situation, the stories of the chosen ones in the future will only be more dangerous.
Therefore, it is necessary to supplement the divine nature. Shade feels that he must hold at least 10 drops of divine nature at the same time in order to spend every day stably.
[Do you still remember how much divinity you have obtained so far? 】
"I calculated 11 drops. It took 6 drops to get promoted, and 3 drops to face the evil gods [Lord of Blood Feast], [Vampire God], and [Stone Heart Demon], and there are still two drops left. Speaking of which, I am really grateful [
Lord of the Blood Feast] Ah, but He gave me power twice."
【Foreigners, don’t be too greedy.】
Shade smiled and looked at the girls helping in the basement:
"You know, I'm just greedy."
"She" smiled softly, and Shade knew that "she" agreed with his choice.
Although Sha De said on the surface that it was troublesome to inherit so many books, he was still very happy that his library could be expanded. The knowledge of the Thirteen Ring Diviners was something that no one else could even imagine, so Sha De was really getting a big deal.
.
In addition to the knowledge of ring magicians, his underground private library also has books about thaumaturgy. Shade just flipped through it in the afternoon and found the thaumaturgy he was interested in, which was Laplace Edwards.
My own improved and created thaumaturgy:
"[Edwards Eye], look, he named it after his family name."
At this time, the person following Shade was Sirius. Megan was called away by Miss Benanis on the grounds that "as long as you follow Shade, the efficiency of the two of you will be reduced."
"What are the effects of thaumaturgy?"
The blonde girl asked curiously between the bookshelves.
"This is an investigative thaumaturgy. Like the [Echo of Blood] I have now and the ancient witcher's [Seeing Demon], they are both thaumaturgy that works on both eyes. There is only one effect. It is to observe the body of a certain object.
Have you ever undergone human body refining? The scope of this 'human body refining' is quite broad, as long as it is not a naturally formed body or a body reshaped by my 'active clay', it can be judged as 'human body refining'."
"In other words, as long as it is not a natural body, it can be discovered?"
Siris concluded, Shade nodded:
"Yes, the fusion relics, the power given by demons, and the physical distortion caused by the petrification curse in Randall Valley can all be seen, and you can even see the location of the distortion very accurately. I'll take a look at the instructions behind it."
He turned the notebook back:
"The diviners use this thaumaturgy to observe the changes in the bodies of their experimental subjects, so as to facilitate real-time monitoring of the range of benign and malignant distortions. This guy is really a genius. The spiritual runes needed must be enlightenment, [nature] [flesh] [
Really [eyes] can do it.”
So Shade decided to learn this, not only because he had newly obtained the spiritual rune [Flesh and Blood], but also because it was really useful. Even if it was not to improve his own detection ability, he could always observe whether the girls around him had any physical changes.
Shade spent most of the afternoon with Sirius. The young blonde girl walked around the underground space with Shade, talking with him about study, knowledge and life. In the hidden place of the library
In a corner, or an inconspicuous corner such as a separate secret room for storing relics, Sirius wouldn't mind getting intimate with Shade.
But the price of intimacy is that everyone has basically completed the inventory of items this afternoon. More careful inspections are needed later, but Shade left this job to Megan.
