Mystery: Mr. Witch and Miss Hunter

Chapter 383 Alternatives

Adele was full of thoughts when there was a sudden knock on the door, and then Laila in a police uniform walked into the door.

There are two silver stars on her epaulets, her clothes are slightly propped up by her breasts, and she wears inconspicuous diamond studs on her ears. Although her face still looks a little childish, it also has a bit of ability.

In her hand is another set of black-and-white checkered uniform including leather boots, a soft hat inlaid with the coat of arms of "two crossed swords, surrounded by a crown", and a black and white interlaced background with three silver stars shining on her shoulders badge.

"This is the new uniform that logistics asked me to send to you."

Lyra said, "What do you want from me?"

After Adele's transfer order came down, in addition to the rank of lieutenant in the army, she had an additional rank in the police force, but she hadn't had time to reissue the police officer certificate and all types of weapons use certificate.

"Just put it over there."

Adele responded casually. Originally, she wanted to ask Lila to help her divination about Sothoth, but because the speed of spiritual recovery exceeded her expectations, she solved the matter herself. Now she really doesn't know What to tell Laila to do.

However, the instigator's ability to make excuses is also top-notch. It took less than a second for Adele to think about what to do for Laila, and then handed over the crumpled report in her hand, He told Laila:
"Help me reorganize this report and send it to Lieutenant General White."

Adele instructed without changing her expression, "Then you will be mainly responsible for the clerical work, and you need to familiarize yourself with the details in advance."

"Paperwork?" Laila repeated with some confusion, as if she didn't understand what Adele meant.

"It is to help me sort out some investigation results, and then compile a report and submit it to Lieutenant General White."

Adele thought that Lila didn't understand the meaning of "paperwork", a term that didn't appear often in the witch's life, so she explained it patiently.

"No, I know, I mean, do I just need to do this kind of task?"

Lila frowned, "Mom told me that she would go to the front with Captain Tracy to fight, and I really only need to do paperwork in the rear?"

"You shouldn't even have to do paperwork if you can afford to go to college."

Adele glanced at Laila, "There are Extraordinary and experienced fighters on the front line of the battlefield, and if you are not even in the middle rank, you will not be able to play any important role on the front line. I would rather let you find a place to study in college. "

"During the war, though, it seemed like there was no chance of that, so I'll have to make you do similar paperwork, at least not without grammatical knowledge."

Adele said as a matter of course, "Look carefully at the report I gave you, and learn the words and sentences in it. The investigation at this stage will not involve any dangerous tasks for the time being, at least there are no signs of danger yet, you have to Take this opportunity to learn something useful..."

When she said these words, Adele was actually a little guilty. Her grammar knowledge was actually far below the level of a college student. She was able to barely cope with the current job because of the influence of Venata, a truly talented student.

Laila opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but finally closed her mouth rationally, and concentrated on studying the report in hand.

"If there is anything you don't understand, I'm on the side, and you can ask me at any time."

I have to say that children who grew up in the East District are sensible and precocious...

After telling Laila, Adele sighed in her heart, completely unaware that she was only less than ten years older than Laila.

Originally, in her subconscious mind, Laila might feel awkward with herself because she couldn't go to the battlefield to fight with her mother. She had already prepared a lot of words of persuasion, but she didn't expect that the other party was more sensible than she imagined, and she was far behind her. It's not as unreasonable as it was when I was quarreling with myself before.

How did she change sex recently?

Adele couldn't figure it out, so she simply didn't want to.

……

Since it was not too early for the two of them to eat, they sat in their offices until one or two o'clock at noon and did not go out for lunch.

During this period, Lila has been studying hard on the official document Adele gave her, occasionally asking Adele some detailed questions, such as the specific situation at the scene, the actual speculation on the identity of Sotos and his party, etc. wait.

At a quarter to three in the afternoon, Adele stretched her waist and sent Laila to have afternoon tea, while she found a chance to be alone on the pretext of a lunch break, then lay down on the wicker chair and waited. Tarot today.

At 55:[-], above the vague, boundless, gray, and empty mist, a majestic and grand temple towered high, and an ancient bronze long table was quietly placed.

The high-backed chair at the top of the long table was empty, and the eternal gray fog surrounded that high-backed chair. Above it, the dim light highlighted the starlight corresponding to the other seats.

The moment Adele's figure appeared on the edge of the long table, she found a figure on the high-backed chair that symbolized "star" and "judgment", which made her breathe a long sigh of relief.

Last week, the sudden absence of "Star" and "Judgment" really made her nervous for a while.Even after Cattleya reassured everyone that there was nothing unusual about Miss "Judgment"'s injury, with the "Queen of Mystery" taking care of her, small wounds were nothing to worry about, but looking at the people who gathered for meetings every week With the sudden loss of two, Adele still felt a little uneasy.

"Good afternoon, Mister Fool."

Still led by Ms. Justice, everyone bowed to the empty high-backed chair at the top of the long bronze table, and then Ms. "Hermit" said to everyone in a relatively brisk voice:

"As much as we hear bad news these days, first we welcome Miss Judgment back from her injuries."

After speaking, everyone on the gray mist applauded politely, making "Judgment" Xio a little uncomfortable.

"All this is thanks to the help of 'Queen of Mysteries' and Ms. 'Hermit'." Xio hurriedly said gratefully to everyone in the Tarot Society, his words were sincere and without any falsehood.

"Actually, it's mostly the mother's fault."

Cattleya the Hermit no longer hides. The current Tarot Society is no longer an organization that needs to rely on mutual concealment to ensure the convenience of its actions. They are already equivalent to a semi-official organization. Now members call each other code names just Because of habit.

"Judgment" didn't get entangled in the point of whose credit it is, but went directly to the topic.

"To make a long story short, although I have now recovered to the state where I can perform rituals normally, the Queen of Mysteries still does not recommend that I continue to use spirituality for a long time."

Xio clenched his fists habitually, "So, I will share with you the information I investigated before I was injured as soon as possible."

"The Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom did use a magical item. The hunter Yegor who was fighting with me accidentally revealed it. It is very likely that it is 0-01."

Hugh said briefly, "He didn't disclose much information about 0-01, I just heard a vague name. In order to prevent forgetting, I wrote that name on my clothes before I passed out."

"The name he mentioned was, 'Flag of War'."

"Flag of War"...

Hearing this name, everyone in the Tarot Society fell into deep thought, as if they understood many things.

It seems that it is indeed a mystical item with the authority of the War Domain, and it is really very likely that it is the uniqueness of the "Red Priest" path...

Adele felt a strange longing in her heart, but it was not serious, and she suppressed it after thinking about it a little.

Argel the Hanged Man was thinking about the specific purpose of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom for taking out this sealed item, what is the effect of this sealed item, and other issues.

Audrey frowned slightly, and had already thought of which forces would be attracted to this magical item that was suspected to be unique to the "Red Priest" pathway.

This range is actually not that big. A force that has the ability and desire to compete for uniqueness must have at least one magical item or sealed item equivalent to the first level of the sequence.

Before the war, there were three sequences of the "Red Priest" pathway, the "Conqueror" characteristic, one in the hands of the former royal family of Intis, the Sauron family, one in the hands of the Einhorn family of the Feysac royal family, and the remaining A share of it fell into the hands of the Augustus family of the Loen royal family, and was later given to the Witch Sect as a reward.

Of course, after the war, these circumstances may well have changed.

The Sauron family had already declined as early as Roselle's time, so they might not still retain the "conqueror" Extraordinary characteristic, and it is very likely that it has been acquired by the Jagged Cross;
The failure of the previous war caused considerable damage to the Einhorn family, and it is not ruled out that high-ranking angels will fall or level 0 sealed items will be lost;
The Conqueror trait that the Augustus family gave to the Witch Sect is the clearest whereabouts so far, but the Red Angel Medici has been paying attention to that trait, and it can be seen from the news from Leonard that , the other party is already seeking to be promoted to Sequence 1, and it seems that it has succeeded.

"I'm afraid the only one worthy of the 'uniqueness' paid by the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom is the 'Red Angel'?"

Leonard muttered to himself, which drew a burst of approval from everyone.

According to the information discovered by "Sun" Derrick when he explored the ruins of the City of Silver, today's God of Knowledge and Wisdom, the Red Angel Medici, belonged to the group formed by the Dark Angel Saslier and the Goddess of the Night in ancient times. The secret organization "Rose of Redemption", it is not completely unreasonable to say that they still retain the trust to do transactions.

"However, in this case, their actions are somewhat unreasonable..."

Audrey seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and her tone gradually became suspicious.

"The currently known alliances are the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom in the Three Kingdoms of Lemburg, Intis' Iron Cross, and Moss Penance, and these forces only have a copy of the Sequence One characteristic. The share that the red angel owns is far from being able to advance to the level of a true god."

"According to the Red Angel's personality, he doesn't seem to be the kind of person who would tell others about his plans with great fanfare before winning. Isn't it a bit rash to get to this level now?"

Everyone in the Tarot Club thought about it for a while, and found that it was indeed reasonable, and they all fell into deep thought. For a while, no one could tell the reason.

At this moment, Adele tentatively said:

"According to my understanding of the hunter's path, the schemes they design are often not complicated to put it bluntly, but lack some key conditions. In other words, the reason why their schemes seem incredible to the opponent, but they are Because there is a gap in information between the two parties, the other party cannot use the existing information to speculate on the other party's movements."

"It's a very novel point of view, is it your girlfriend's statement?" Emlyn asked curiously, "However, I don't think this matter has anything to do with what we are considering, after all, Medici is now A true angel, perhaps even the king of angels."

"However, the principle of conspiracy is the same."

Adele insisted, "If you can't deduce the other party's purpose from the conditions, then you might as well try the other way around."

"We now know that the other party's purpose is to make the 'Red Angel' Medici become a god, and to become a god requires those three Sequence One Extraordinary characteristics."

"Among the forces that may possess the Extraordinary Characteristics of the Conqueror, it goes without saying that the Witch Sect cannot hand over the Extraordinary Characteristics to the Red Angel. There is no motivation for cooperation."

"Although I have always been skeptical, when I was with Katerina, I didn't see any signs from her that the conqueror traits in the hands of the Witch Sect have been lost."

"As for the Einhorn family, they had no direct interest in the Medici, but if there is any faction that needs a true god the most, it would probably be them as the royal family of the Feysac Empire."

Adele spoke freely, and the things summarized by integrating information from various parties during this period of time finally have something to discuss.

What bargaining chip can Fusac's royal family pay?
Even if Adele didn't say it, everyone in the Tarot Club understood what she meant:
For the angel who wants to be promoted to the "Red Priest", apart from the uniqueness of the "Red Priest", how can there be a more sincere gift than a Conqueror trait?

"Besides that, it's also worth noting that Intis is aggressively buying magical items and Extraordinary characteristics above the sequence in the hunter path across the continent."

When it came to this, Adele's expression was also a little hesitant, because she was not too sure here.

"I learned from Ge Gelan that the demigods of the red priest path are good at integrating the power of individuals into a whole. Sealed items made by relying on the uniqueness of this path are entirely possible through the accumulation of low-sequence Extraordinary characteristics and comparison. The similar effects of high-level Extraordinary characteristics cannot rule out the possibility that both the Witch Sect and the Einhorn family are just alternatives for the Medici."
