Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 238 Uniqueness

"..."

Olmer's expression froze and he was too suffocated to speak.

Although his surname is Todbringer, he is not the only member of the Todbringer family.Even though he is the heir of Lucius, he is not the only heir. He has two elder brothers above him.

And Olmer just let go of his "ruthless words", bluntly saying that in the entire Landenheim, there is no better choice than him.However, if he really had to choose a partner, his two older brothers were undoubtedly better choices than him.

But the words have been spoken, he can't take them back, right?

"Miss Lilith was joking."

Olmer took a deep breath and said calmly, "Age doesn't mean anything. How can Miss Lilith be sure that they are a better choice than me?"

Olmer smiled, and suddenly changed the subject:

"Of course, Miss Lilith is coming to Langdenheim for the first time after all, and maybe she doesn't know much about the city. You can observe for a while before deciding whether to cooperate with me."

Olmer was not discouraged by this defeat, although the opponent came to join Langdenheim.But after all, there is a blood clan at the patriarchal level behind him, and he naturally has to respect his father, Luzius, but he is only the heir of Luzius, and he doesn't have that much face to make a family bow to him.

But Olmer is confident that the other party will choose him instead of his two older brothers.

Olmer thought about it, took out an invitation letter from his pocket, put it on the table and pushed it towards Lilith, and said with a smile:
"There will be a party tomorrow night at the castle of the Todbringer family. If Miss Lilith is convenient, you might as well go and find out for yourself."

Lilith picked up the gold-plated invitation letter and asked calmly:

"Is this your party?"

"Do not."

Olmer shook his head and said frankly, "My eldest brother is the organizer of the party, and I just happen to have a few invitations in my hand."

"I'm afraid it's not just that simple?"

Lilith glanced at Olmer meaningfully, but didn't say what was in her heart directly, she nodded with a smile:
"If there is time, I will participate."

"Then I won't bother you."

Seeing Lilith accepting the invitation letter, Olmer was quietly relieved, stood up with a smile and took the initiative to say goodbye.

Neither Lilith nor Olnia had the intention to keep him, but Olnia eagerly opened the door for him.This made Olmer extremely depressed. To be reasonable, shouldn't you keep it at this time?

Don't you want to learn part of the power structure at the top of the city from him?Don't you really have any intention of taking refuge in him, the third son of Lucius?

No, it's impossible, it's definitely playing hard to get!Absolutely!
Olmer took a deep breath and walked out of the room with his head held high.

The other party deliberately showed a look of indifference, just to attract his attention.

Just wait, when he walks out of the room without hesitation, the other party will definitely stop him.

boom!
The moment Olmer left, the door slammed shut, which made Olmer's expression stiffer.

And wait for him to walk through the corridor to the stairs, wait for him to leave the hotel.

He never saw the door reopen.

The other party seemed to have no intention of keeping him at all, he suddenly felt like a clown who had been extremely active just now.

"It's okay, it's actually okay..."

Olmer's face was a bit ugly, but he could only comfort himself. At least no one else knew about his psychological activities. At least the superficial words were reasonable. At least the other party accepted his invitation... right?
-
In the room, Lilith rested her elbows on the table, rested her chin with her palm, and played with the invitation letter with the other hand, but finally threw aside the invitation letter that countless people were asking for.

Lilith stretched her limbs lazily, exposing her beautiful delicate body, and said lazily:
"Are you going?"

"Go to what?"

Ember didn't seem to react, and looked away from the window.

"Party."

The girl's tone seemed a little helpless, "Can you concentrate?"

Ember glanced at the invitation letter that Olnia picked up from the ground, and calmly said:

"It's all the same, you can go if you want."

"it's the same?"

Lilith blinked, that means that no matter what she does, whether it's fighting against Todbringer or making good friends, it won't affect Ember's plan?So, what exactly is he going to do?
Lilith was a little distressed. Ember had never revealed his plan to them, and they didn't know what Ember was going to do. The feeling of being concealed was really uncomfortable.Could it be that Ember was worried that they would hinder him?But both of their lives were saved by him, obviously they would not hinder them no matter what.

Or is Ember still not trusting them enough?
Lilith was a little discouraged, discouraged that she still could not gain Ember's trust.Then I became even more convinced that all of this was Olnia's fault!It was because of her that he was still unable to meet Ember sincerely, in various senses.

In Lilith's view, this is the only possibility, otherwise, why didn't Ember tell them the overall plan?It can't be because he hasn't figured it out yet, right?Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Lilith pinched the ring on her index finger and twirled it around, and asked with a little expectation:
"Then, are you going?"

"Also."

Ember thought for a while, but did not refuse, and nodded lightly: "However, there is only one invitation letter."

"It's ok."

Lilith smiled and said: "The invitation letter can bring a servant to the dinner."

While speaking, the girl looked at Olnia provocatively from the corner of her eye, the corners of her mouth slightly raised:

"Olnia, Ember and I will go to the party tomorrow, then you have to stay at home obediently, don't make us worry~!"

Olnia was expressionless, worried?She stays at home obediently, so you don't have to worry!But letting you go to the party is what she is most worried about! ——
Klein, who hunted and killed Mithor and Ozil, the 'Great Man', waited all afternoon and still hadn't received the bounty, so he had to go out to the local military liaison personnel. Us Kent turned his eyes After a circle, get the answer of 'the process has been completed, but the money can only be issued tomorrow morning' and leave satisfied.

By the way, he participated in the private transaction of the adventurers in the Swordfish Bar. After the transaction, Klein wanted to leave directly, but was found to be a devout believer who once wanted to dedicate a third of his [-] gold pounds to the 'Sea God' , the trader Ralph took the initiative to strike up a conversation, and tried to preach to him...

Klein was so angry and nice for a while, I believe I belonged.

However, although the preaching failed, Ralph still introduced him to a business——

A pharmacist who claimed to know him wanted to entrust him with a task.

And Klein knew only one pharmacist, that fat Darkwill.

While thinking about it, Klein decided to first hear what commission the other party had.

When it was close to 11 o'clock, Klein saw the timid and fat pharmacist Darkwill in the billiard room No. 3 of the Swordfish Bar.

He was wearing a taraba shirt, wide-leg pants, and a thick brown jacket. On his right shoulder stood a round-faced owl, staring at the adventurer opposite him with piercing eyes.

Klein remained calm on the surface, and asked in a low voice:
"What commission do you have?"

"Is such that."

The fat pharmacist put his left hand in his pocket, holding the ring box tightly, "I'm about to go on a trip to another island, hehe, it will take about three days. Because of certain things, I may be in danger, of course, it may be No, in short, I need a bodyguard, and you are the best person I can think of."

What you are saying is as if I am not that powerful, but you know very few people... If you don’t save the teacher and leave Bayam, are you going to find a helper?Or, having been rescued, the danger comes from the pursuit of the military?Klein guessed the truth of the matter, and suddenly changed color slightly.

It wasn't because this task made him feel a little tricky, but because the embers that he had been carrying in his pocket suddenly became agitated, making his skin feel burning and stinging through his clothes.

The embers are burning human nature, but they are not hot. Even if you hold them in your hands, you will not feel obvious burning, but rather cold.But right now, the embers suddenly became extremely hot, stinging his skin like a branding iron.

Klein's thoughts turned quickly, looking for the reason for the rest of the fire' restlessness.

The embers were left behind by the embers, and usually there was almost no reaction, but now they suddenly became agitated.Could it be because of Darkwill?

No, he's just an ordinary pharmacist, at most he's just a Sequence 8, nothing special about him.Is that because of the owl on the opponent's shoulder?It's also impossible, they just met each other a few days ago, and there was no reaction to the embers at that time.

But why is there a reaction this time...

Klein's eyes swept over Darkwill without missing any details, and finally his eyes settled on the ring box in his hand.

The contents of the box made Ember react!

"What's in it?"

Klein pointed to the ring box in Darkwill's hand, and said in a low voice.

Darkwill's complexion changed drastically, his body tensed up, and he subconsciously hid the ring box behind his back, whispering a few times with his lips:
"This has nothing to do with entrustment..."

It's okay. Why are you so nervous?Can you tell such a clumsy lie?

Klein glanced at him and said coldly:

"You can choose not to tell, but I will not accept your commission."

He doesn't have to know what's inside, but he doesn't have to choose to accept Darkwill's commission either.

"..."

Cold sweat dripped from Darkwill's forehead, what did he mean by that?
You can choose not to say it, but as long as I kill you, what's inside is mine?No, can't you?Murder is against the law... Why not, he is a crazy adventurer, what can't he do? !What's more, the definition of an adventurer and a pirate is vague, and an adventurer may become a pirate at any time, and a pirate will occasionally pretend to be an adventurer...

With the opponent's strength and madness, he can really do things like killing people and seizing treasures.

After enduring a strong psychological struggle, Darkwill finally chose to compromise, and said bitterly:
"I-I said..."

Klein sat on a chair and leaned forward slightly:
"Since you have decided to speak, then speak clearly."

Darkwill hesitated for a few seconds, and finally made a decision, intending to avoid the main point and only talk about superficial phenomena.He subconsciously avoided Gehrman Sparrow's seemingly peaceful eyes and said:
"It's like this. My teacher and I belong to a secret organization, and we fled because there were traitors inside. And my entrustment this time is to hand over a very important sealed item to an elder."

"Is this the one in your hand?"

Klein cast his eyes on the ring box in Darkwill's hand, his eyes flickering.

"right……"

Darkwill silently opened the lid, and there was a milky white six-sided dice inside, and explained in a low voice: "It has the extraordinary ability of the path of fate, which can make people unlucky or lucky."

After a pause, he added as if trying to cover up:

"It should be a mid-sequence sealed item, it shouldn't be very important to you, right?"

Klein glanced at him, but didn't answer.Because the moment the ring box was opened, Klein could clearly feel the growing agitation of the embers!It was a kind of restlessness like squirming hunger, which could make Klein clearly aware of the embers of desire:

It wants to eat this dice!

Klein lowered his eyes slightly to prevent others from seeing the expression in his eyes.

The embers are part of the first fire, so it can be inferred that the embers are also yearning for a powerful soul just like the first fire.Is there a powerful soul imprisoned in this dice?

No, no, this world is not the same as the world of Dark Souls after all.

The source of power in the world of black souls is the soul, and all creatures are closely related to the soul-except the ancient dragon.But in this world, the source of power is the Extraordinary characteristic, and the soul is just an accessory of the Extraordinary characteristic.

Just like those souls that are devoured and manipulated by creeping hunger, the source of their power is also Beyonder characteristics rather than the soul itself.Once they lose their Extraordinary characteristics, these souls will also lose all of their Extraordinary abilities.

So, what Ember Huo desires now is Extraordinary characteristics?
This dice is made of the extraordinary characteristics of a certain pathway high sequence?The Extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 4 and Sequence 3 are also high-sequence, but it is not without sealed items of this level in his hands, but Ember Huo did not show similar restlessness.

Therefore, the level corresponding to the dice is at least sequence 2 or higher!

But Klein felt that his guess should be a little bolder——

Sequence 2 goes up, at least it is also Sequence 1.

So, which path is the sequence 1?
Darkwill came from the school of life, and the school of life mastered the 'monster' approach.And Will Auceptin, whom Klein once met, is the highest authority of the Life School, the president of the Destiny Council, a Sequence 1 'Mercury Snake'!
The monster path makes perfect sense,
But as Sequence 1, the 'Mercury Snake' is not the only one, there can be at most three 'snakes' existing at the same time.Could it be that besides Will Auceptin, the Life School has an additional Sequence 1 Extraordinary characteristic?
But if this is the case, then why didn't Will Auceptin directly integrate this Extraordinary characteristic?After all, if he possesses two copies of Sequence 1's Extraordinary Characteristics, he will be able to take an absolute advantage in the face of another 'Mercury Snake', 'Tail Swallower' Ouroreus.

"Unless, Will Auceptin can't fuse this 'dice' at all, maybe this will cause him to lose control. But the Extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 1 should not have this ability, that is to say..."

Klein ruled out all possibilities, and finally decided on an answer that made him feel a little unbelievable:
"Is this the uniqueness of the 'monster' pathway?"
