Seeing the female bodyguard skillfully take out a metal vial from the inner pocket of the thin black robe, pour some powder into the palm of her hand, sprinkle it evenly around the assassin's body, and then drip some liquid...
After completing this series of actions, she meditated and recited the incantation in a low voice in Hermes:
“I invoke the power of the underworld;
I invoke the power of the dead;
I pray for the favor of Hades.
I pray that you will allow me to communicate with the spirits of the dead within the altar."
…
…
"Maybe she's a real psychic!"
Looking at her series of familiar operations and the object of her prayers, Gray Linte was a little suspicious that she happened to be a "psychic". This is the Southern Continent, and relatively speaking, the wild Extraordinary people in this path are relatively small.
Many.
But this has nothing to do with him. His attitude towards wild and harmless Extraordinaries is that as long as he is not an Extraordinary of the three paths of "Assassin", "Secret Prayer" and "Demon", he can completely ignore them.
As for the wild Beyonders from these three paths, it is safer to send them to the church.
…
"What's the catch?"
Seeing that the female bodyguard opened her eyes and ended the channeling, Gray Lint immediately asked.
She pondered for a moment, as if she was digesting the results of the channeling, and seemed to be organizing her words. After a moment, she came back to her senses and stated hesitantly:
"The organization behind her is indeed the Gnosis Society."
"The purpose of these people's assassination of Mr. Jeff was to inquire through the psychic about the location of his great-grandfather's grave, which seemed to be related to a certain item they were pursuing."
"As for the stronghold of their organization, I didn't get the result. This part of the memory has been processed in advance in her spirit."
As expected...
Grayling nodded and motioned for her to continue.
"The formula for the 'Assassin' potion is..."
"Its next sequence is called 'Instigator', and the specific recipe is..."
"I confirmed that she is a Sequence Seven Beyonder, but unfortunately, I only got her Sequence name as 'Witch' through my channeling, and then her spirit dissipated."
As she said that, she showed a rather regretful look. In her opinion, Gray Linte should have asked her to ask for the potion formula first... Now there is a missing potion formula of sequence seven... which is worth at least seven or eight.
One hundred pounds!
After writing down the "Instigator"'s potion formula, Gray Lint ignored her regrets and was quite satisfied with this unexpected gain.
He was more interested in the goals of the "Gnostic Society" than this.
The "Gnostic Society" possesses the "Pleasure Witch", a powerful weapon against lustful men. If you want to get information from a certain man, it seems that you don't need to resort to murderous psychics at all?
Now that they insist on killing people and channeling spirits, it means that they attach great importance to this and do not believe in any information obtained through conventional methods!
…
After thinking for a moment, Gray Lint asked West to disperse the servants, and then he threw the "Seed of Abuse" onto the body of the female assassin.
In just four or five seconds visible to the naked eye, this dark green seed began to take root, germinate, bloom, and bear fruit quickly... and the body turned into a handful of bone powder.
After deliberately intimidating West Germany, Gray Lint put away these "fruits of recklessness" and the tooth-shaped short blade, and looked at West Germany with a half-smile:
"Mr. Jeff, what do you think of the goals of the Gnostic Society?"
Sid Jeff shuddered and said in an unsteady voice:
"I, I don't know. I only know that my great-grandfather only lived 58 years old and has been dead for more than 80 years. As for his grave..."
Having said this, West Germany paused, instinctively not wanting anyone to disturb the peace of his ancestors.
However, facing Gray Linte's half-smiling gaze, he could only swallow hard and silently recited a few words, "Don't blame the ancestors"...
Then he followed his heart's wishes and decisively told Gray Lint the specific address.
Afraid that Gray Linte would not be able to find it and come back to settle the score with him, he also specially found a map to indicate it and described the scenery around the tomb in detail, including trees and buildings.
Gray Lint actually didn't have much interest in this item. After all, West Germany's great-grandfather only lived for 58 years, and he must not have been a powerful extraordinary person.
His relics will reach the sky at Sequence Five...
If it takes too much effort to obtain it, he feels that it is better to spend money to buy it himself.
At the end of June, there will be an opportunity for internal trading in the 9th branch of the Southern Continental Army Intelligence Branch. At the beginning of July, Gray Lint can also go to the Hoi River Estuary in Tingen to attend the "Hermit of Destiny" party.
With the level of these two gatherings, coupled with the 18,000 pounds that Gray Linte still has in savings and more than 1,000 pounds in cash, as well as the April income that is about to arrive... he will definitely be able to buy one by then.
Satisfactory sequence of five levels of magical items.
In addition, after he is promoted to Sequence Six, he can also drive the "Servant of Madness" to a certain extent to let one of his limbs plunge into reality. By then, his methods will be greatly enriched...
…
After some thinking and weighing, Gray Lint finally gave up the idea of exploring on his own. Firstly, he was in a position where his superiors supervised him from time to time, and he did not have enough free time. Secondly, he did not know what he would encounter.
What unknown dangers - to some extent, exploring this tomb is more dangerous than hunting extraordinary creatures.
"I remember your belief is the goddess?"
After seeing West Germany nod, Gray Lint continued:
"If the 'Gnosis Society' still doesn't want to give up, the people they send will probably be beyond my ability to deal with..."
"The only advice I can give you is to find an opportunity to inform the bishop of the Goddess Church about your experience. Well, there is no need to hide my existence."
The general bishop of the church is usually not an Extraordinary, but it doesn't matter, he can definitely contact the secret Nighthawks. As for how they plan to protect West Germany and deal with the relics of the tomb... that is not a problem that Gray Lint should worry about.
Already.
"Report to the Nighthawks?"
Before West Germany had any reaction, his female bodyguard was startled and nervously asked Gray Linte. Then, she said to West Germany with a warning:
"Remember not to expose me!"
She had looked at Glalint and the two of them with very wary eyes before, and this was based on the fact that Glalint's action was obviously a private one.
…
After returning home, Gray Lint first collected a few "Fruit of Wandering", and then he began to divine the specific situation of the short blade that he had captured from the female assassin.
Divination is very easy when you have actual objects.
In the misty dream, Gray Lint seemed to have returned to the scene when the female assassin got the short blade. The other party was also a woman, but it was too illusory and her face could not be seen clearly. She could only vaguely see the outline of a small man:
"It's called 'Poison Fang'. It's sharp enough and each blow contains the toxin of 'Prisoner' Path Sequence Seven 'Werewolf'. It is an extraordinary weapon that every professional assassin will inevitably favor."
"It lasts at least a year, and for £400 you can get it for just £400."
It has no negative effects and has an expiration date... Gray Lint quickly judged that this was an ordinary extraordinary weapon without special characteristics, but it was still powerful enough and practical enough.
The only pitfall is:
"There are only two months of use left...and its intensity will gradually dissipate in the last month..."
How to use this...
…
After feeling annoyed for a few seconds, he suddenly had a bold idea:
"What would happen if I gave it a copy of the extraordinary properties of "Werewolf"?"
Anyway, he only plans to train Alister to take the "prisoner" path, and he already has the extraordinary characteristics to be promoted to sequence five. In addition, he also has a set of extraordinary characteristics from sequence nine to sequence six in his hand.
"Instead of selling these characteristics for money, I might as well try to incorporate a 'werewolf' extraordinary characteristic into this 'semi-finished' magical item! In the case of already having some directional extraordinary abilities, it was created in this way
The sealed object shouldn't deviate too much...and if it's very useful, I'll have an extra 'living zombie' feature to upgrade it later."
As soon as he thought of it, Gray Lint immediately took out a copy of the extraordinary characteristics of the "Werewolf" and planned to place it next to the "Fang" and wrap it with a spiritual wall to let them slowly merge.
Suddenly, he had another magical idea:
"Hey, it seems that I can use 'bribery' to give this extraordinary characteristic to 'Poison Fang'?". "Bribery" can originally be used to deal with sealed objects, and it does not necessarily have to work on intelligent creatures.
"'Weakening' is excluded first. What I want is for it to be stronger, and I definitely cannot weaken it.
'Associating' it should save me from having to worry about losing it... which is of little value.
‘Arrogant’ is aimed at intelligent creatures, and is definitely useless against low-level magical items, and there is no need to consider it.
I don’t know if ‘Charm’ can work, and it’s also because it has no intelligence, and it can’t be said to have a good impression of me... But its ‘friendliness’ and ‘hate’ don’t seem to have to be intelligent to be reflected?
It can also be expressed in ways such as ‘special attack on someone (Note 1)’ or ‘harmless to someone’.”
As soon as he thought of it, Gray Lint immediately sacrificed both items into that strange space.
Later, he transferred his consciousness to the "Duke of Entropy" through prayer, and "He" activated the "bribery-charm" to "bribe" the extraordinary characteristics of the "werewolf" to the bribe recipient.
"Fangs".
After the "bribery" was over, Gray Lint sealed the two with a spiritual wall and gave them an isolated environment for fusion, which would take anywhere from one or two to ten days.
After a lot of ups and downs, plus the use of angel-level "bribery", even with Graylint's spirituality that had just doubled, it was a bit too much, so he immediately ended the ritual of praying and sacrificing to himself, and took a moment
After washing, I quickly fell asleep.
