Mystery: Beginning with the Warrior Path

Chapter 29 Gray Mist
After a while, Roman, who was looking around while drinking beer, found the rookie lady in a darker corner of the bar.

She was sitting at a table in the corner, opposite a middle-aged man who was somewhat bald.

The man was talking to the rookie lady. After listening, the rookie lady took out a gold coin with a slightly darker color from her bosom, threw the gold coin into the air and caught it again. The rookie lady glanced at the gold coin and nodded. He took out a few banknotes from his pocket and handed them to the bald man opposite.

The bald man on the opposite side took the banknotes, counted them, and put them into his pocket.

Then he stood up, bowed his head and said something to the rookie lady, and left the table.

Roman, who was watching secretly from the side, suddenly felt an inexplicable palpitation after the rookie lady took out the slightly dim gold coin just now.

A sudden complex emotion rushed into Roman's spirit.

That emotion seemed to contain unspeakable fear, and it seemed to be mixed with hatred, expectation and nostalgia.

The feeling of fear was so strong that Roman almost wanted to get up and run away. Of course, Roman didn't make unnecessary movements by virtue of his control over his body.

Watching the gold coin with a somewhat gray surface kept tossing in Miss Cainiao's hands.

Roman suddenly had a feeling in his heart, and took out a silver-gray charm.

This was one of the spells that Tony gave him before he left, and the effect was extremely simple, that is, to help him, a warrior with a low degree of mystery, temporarily activate his spiritual vision.

Roman suddenly had an inspiration just now, that is, to use his spiritual vision to observe the gold coin. It is still held in the hand of the rookie, and he occasionally throws it up.

Roman slowly injected spirituality into the spell, silently recited the ancient Hermetic word "spiritual vision", and then looked at the gold coin.

From the perspective of the spirit vision, a light gray-white mist appeared on the originally slightly dim surface of the gold coin.

Perhaps feeling the prying of Roman's spirit vision, a small part of gray-white mist flowed into Roman's eyes directly following Roman's vision.

Immediately, Roman's eyes were stimulated, and a layer of imperceptible dark red light emerged, entangled with the gray-white mist.

Roman clenched his fists in an instant, and suddenly felt a sharp pain from his eyes and from between his eyebrows. The pain was so intense that Roman even felt a burst of tingling pain in his brain.

Relying on his strong control over his body, Roman didn't fall to the ground and twitched. He just lowered his head, clenched his fists, leaned his body on the table, and endured with all his strength. For a while, Roman only felt the surroundings were silent.

After an unknown period of time, Roman gradually felt the pain ease, and he could feel the noise around him.

After observing that there was nothing unusual about him, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and after turning off his spirit vision, Roman looked in the direction of the rookie lady again.

A complex expression could not help showing on his face.

He already knew what he had just seen.

Although there was only a wisp of gray-white mist, Roman was sure that it was the gray mist above the spirit world.

I just looked at the gray fog through my spiritual vision, and looked at the "God Kingdom" in a certain sense of the great existence above the spiritual world.

That gold coin with a somewhat dim color is probably the same as the ancient bronze mirror of the Solomon Empire in Miss Justice, the strange weather bottle of Mr. Hanged Man, and the planetarium of Ms. Hermit in the original book, and it can be connected to the gray fog. The item represents the crimson stars dotted in the gray mist.

After relieving both physical and mental pain, Roman began to think.

In fact, Roman, who plans to join the Tarot Society, also thought about how to interact with Mister Fool before.

The worst way is to go to Tingen and meet Klein in reality, but on the one hand, Roman himself has no reasonable identity to go to Tingen,

With his current status as a wild Extraordinary, if he met Klein, he might report him on the spot and lock him up in the underground of the "St. Selina Church", behind the Chanis Gate. This is not the "contact" he wanted. ".

On the other hand, going to Tingen means that Roman has to face that terrifying level 0 sealed item.

Although under the protection of the golden finger, it can shield the pollution from some hidden knowledge and help him hide some things, but if he actively exposes himself to that 0-level sealed item, he may not be able to resist its arrangements.

I am only a Sequence 8, facing a former Sequence 5 archbishop of the Church of the Evernight and a 0-level sealed item, even if he is not in a good state because of the promotion failure, Roman doesn't think he will be of any use.

Besides, Klein is involved in the layout of the gods, and there are too many high-level and terrifying eyes watching him.

Roman doesn't plan to have a realistic relationship with Klein until he has the power to protect himself.

The second method is to directly recite the honored name of "The Fool", which will definitely be watched by Klein, but with his cautious character, if he cannot explain the source of the honored name, there is a high probability that Klein will not choose Pulling himself into the gray mist will also arouse Klein's vigilance.

The third is to design a ritual magic to pray. The object of the prayer is not directly directed to Klein, but to the gray mist.

Just keep an eye on the time and perform this ritual after Klein's arrival.

In this way, although the ceremony itself only pointed to the gray mist, it would undoubtedly be received by Klein, the owner of the gray mist who had already descended at that time.

Since it's just an attempt at ritual magic and doesn't involve Klein's body, after listening to my prayers and observing that I'm not in any danger, he may drag himself into the gray mist.

This is also the meaning of my hard work in learning ritual magic and mysticism before. I originally planned to use this method to attract Klein's attention and join the Tarot Club in a way similar to Little Sun.

But now I have a better choice:

The gold coin in the hand of that rookie lady can directly connect to the gray mist, as a crimson star, it can be directly pulled above the gray mist by Kelian.

This is undoubtedly the most convenient and safest way, and it will not arouse Klein's suspicion.

The question now is, how do I get this gold coin?

With Roman's personality, he can't be robbed anyway, which is against his own principles.

It would be best to obtain this gold coin through trading. I still have a lot of gold pounds on me, which should be enough to buy this gold coin.

But how to reasonably propose a deal to this rookie lady?
I just walked up in a daze, afraid that I would scare the rookie lady away.

It can be seen from the fact that she chooses to fully observe when selling notes at the Extraordinary Party, and waits until the end to ask for a transaction, including when she just got off the ship, knowing how to disguise herself and obtain information.

The lady was only inexperienced in adventure, and made mistakes, but by no means a reckless, stupid person.

Just as Roman was thinking, he found that the rookie lady got up from the darkness and walked towards the outside of the bar.

Roman, who didn't think of a way, didn't want to let go of this opportunity, so he got up slowly, followed the rookie lady out of the bar, and walked far behind her on the street.

When walking to a relatively remote alley, Roman suddenly noticed a graceful figure walking towards the rookie lady in the distance.
