After a day's rest, Qiong finally returned to her best condition with full energy, jokingly smiling and saying:
"Dear Lord Viscount, do you have anything to do today?"
There was undisguised joy and expectation in her tone of voice.
"No, do you have any plans? Joan."
Gray Linte thought for a moment and suddenly realized that he really had nothing to do today, only the celebration party arranged by Morgan in the evening.
As for his performance plan, there is no need to rush it in a day or two.
"Then are you interested in going to taste the special food here with me?"
While in Byam, Joan discovered that Gray Linte was willing to try new things.
"If you have no idea what to eat tonight."
"Yes!"
Qiong's expression collapsed in an exaggerated manner, looking quite depressed.
Gray Lint smiled slightly, and then said with a change of tone:
"But I do think it's necessary for us to buy some local clothes or something."
He pretended to complain and added:
"Although this formal suit is light enough, it still makes me feel like I am in a steamer."
"I wonder if I can invite the beautiful Miss Nolan to taste it for me?"
He responded jokingly and slightly exaggeratedly.
Anyway, he had nothing to do, so he thought it would be good to go out and get familiar with the local customs.
His words made Qiong Mei's eyes slightly open, and she responded with a slight twinkle in her eyes:
"Okay, I also want to buy some clothes that are convenient for performing tasks."
…………
The whole morning's "shopping" went quite smoothly, and no blind Xiao Xiao dared to directly offend an obviously dignified Loen gentleman and his "female companion."
Gray Lint also successfully became familiar with the road planning of the residential area, and at the same time completed the purchase of local casual clothes with satisfaction.
Qiong seemed to be unsatisfied.
For her, the experience of helping others choose clothes without considering the price seems to be quite good?
————————————————————————
In the afternoon, Joan, who was inevitably tired after being so excited, chose to stay in her room and rest.
Gray Lint, who had nothing to do, began to teach some common occult knowledge to the four students.
That's right, the number of his students is four, including Jim, the little mouse.
Jim is not very studious, which gives Gray Lint a headache. When he asked him to learn the occult language on his own before, with the help of "Erudition of the Erudite", Jim's efficiency was quite high. Then after he went to sea,
When the boring Gray Lint began to take the initiative to teach Jim occult knowledge, he deeply realized how bad Jim's playful nature was...
This made Gray Lint have strong doubts about whether Jim's next sequence, "Decryptor", could be performed well.
Fortunately, Shirley and the other three are all novices in the occult. They are completely unaware that even in an extraordinary world, the existence of "Jim" is very strange.
This led them to accept Jim's existence quite easily.
The reason why Graylingt no longer concealed Jim's existence was because he had too little contact with them, which was not conducive to his growth. Moreover, getting Jim familiar with them earlier would also make it easier for him to rely on Jim to communicate with them in the future.
They give orders and stuff.
What he is currently teaching Shirley are mainly two Hermes languages, which can be regarded as the most widely used occult knowledge.
As for potions and acting methods, he didn't explain them at all.
Firstly, they don't need these yet, and secondly, the way he knows the "assassin" path is inherently problematic, so he can't tell Shirley directly.
He had thought about it early on, and the purpose of the acting method was to fit the essence of the potion.
But just like "there are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand readers", the same sequence name should be different for everyone. This is the real meaning of acting.
So he wanted to think about whether there was any way to play "Witch" that was different from the original work.
If he had to act like the original, he would rather prevent Shirley from being promoted.
This is not because he is selfish and wants to decide Shirley's future arbitrarily. With Shirley's current character, she is definitely not willing to become a "witch that spreads disaster" and a "witch that brings joy." And if
If a person changes his personality to "what the potion requires" in order to fit the potion, can he still be considered his original self?
Doesn’t the difference between people lie in their unique thoughts and consciousness?
Although the essence of the "witch" is to bring disaster, there are definitely differences in what kind of path to take to fit this essence.
Just like the "Prisoner" path, there is the Indulgent Path, which is more correct, but will lead to the outer gods. There is also the Temperance Path, which is relatively less correct, but still feasible.
After a little reining in his divergent thoughts, Gray Linte continued his narration.
At this moment, he felt inexplicably that if there was a "teacher" sequence, maybe it would be more suitable for him?
————————————————————————
In the evening, Gray Linte and Joan finally got to know the remaining three teammates.
Marcus looked to be close to forty. He was used to hiding his whole body in a hooded black robe. When he showed his face, Gray Lint saw that he had the pale face unique to the "Corpse Collector" path.
Kong, at the same time, his facial features are simple and profound, and his overall temperament is quite cold.
As for Jon Jold, he is a dignified nobleman in his early thirties. He wears a rather old-fashioned Loen formal suit, and his hair and beard are neatly and seriously groomed.
Finally, there is Mick, who has a complete Intis bloodline. He looks about 25 or 26 years old, has short, thick black hair, and looks very energetic.
This dinner was an informal banquet, which meant that the teammates met informally and got to know each other. This made Glerint, who was looking forward to the feast, a little disappointed, although today's dinner was actually
It looks pretty good too.
During the banquet, during the toast, Morgan brought the topic to everyone’s task arrangements for the next period of time:
"Now that you two are here, Gray Linte, we can finally feel a little more relaxed."
He chuckled and said:
"Before you guys came, Mick complained to me many times. Haha, he always said that he had been working overtime for a long time and wanted to take annual leave."
Official members of MI9 take one day off in a week, and can take one month of unpaid annual leave each year. At the same time, members whose families are in the Northern Continent are also entitled to an additional 20 days of family leave each year - in fact, this is often not enough.
The time spent on the round trip is not enough. Correspondingly, family members in the Southern Continent only have one month of paid annual leave each year.
"This is not because, captain, you are always reluctant to let Ms. Athena perform tasks..."
Mick mumbled something softly, so fast that Gray Lint almost didn't hear it clearly.
Morgan didn't know whether he didn't hear what he said or deliberately ignored it. He didn't say anything about it, but continued:
"Now that we have sufficient manpower, the task of 'investigating the attackers' that was temporarily slowed down should be intensified."
He thought for a moment, touched his beard with his remaining left arm, and said:
"Leave it to you two, Gray Lint and Mick, to carry out the task."
"I?"
Gray Lint asked in confirmation, slightly surprised.
