Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 30 What Should Come Still Will Come
Monday, three o'clock in the afternoon.

Above the gray mist, in the majestic temple, the ancient and mottled bronze long table was quietly placed.

Members appear in their fixed positions.

But this time, for some reason, the ceremony of the Tarot Club was not ushered in——

Miss Justice didn't even say hello.

At this moment, everyone noticed Miss Justice's anomaly, and Qi Qi turned her attention to Audrey.

But Miss Justice, who was obviously the audience, seemed not to notice at this time, but her body tensed up and she didn't know what to think.

After a while, Audrey sat up straight suddenly, and spoke hesitantly:
"Dear Mr. Fool, Mr. Hanged Man, Mr. Lover, I have a question to ask, um~, what can a pet with extraordinary power help its owner? Simply put, what can it do? effect?"

As soon as the words fell, the Tarot Society fell into silence, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely strange.

"It depends on what kind of extraordinary ability that pet has."

The Hanged Man was silent for a long time. Seeing that no one else was going to speak, he said in a strange tone, "For example, it is an audience, so it can observe and listen in on some occasions instead of you. You know, people will be vigilant. The same kind, but unlikely to suspect a pet of eavesdropping, even if the pet is crouched at his feet."

Audrey's eyes lit up, and she immediately felt that it made sense.

But soon his expression changed, why did Mr. The Hanged Man directly use 'audience' as an example?What are you implying?
"Mr. Fool, I found another page of Emperor Roselle's diary."

Audrey hastily opened her mouth to change the subject, and Mister Fool subconsciously glanced at Ember.

The moment he realized that the other party didn't ask for the diary, 'The Fool' couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

It seemed that his strategy last time had some effect.

So ever.

Through this diary, Klein learned some important information——

For example, there is no oil in this world, for example, there is an organization in this world that secretly affects the world situation.

After thinking for a long time, Klein restrained his thoughts and let the diary in his hand disappear directly:

"You can communicate."

Audrey heaved a sigh of relief, the time Mister Fool spent looking through the diary was enough to cover up what happened just now.

"Miss Justice"

Ember slowly said, "I have obtained the mind reader formula."

As he said that, Ember cast his eyes on the head seated 'The Fool'.

"What use do you think I am?"

Klein complained, but still honestly manifested the pen and paper in front of the embers.

"So soon?"

The Hanged Man couldn't help looking at Ember in surprise, but his expression became more suspicious.

It is impossible for a mere 'apprentice' to get the potion formula, even if he has money!
What kind of relationship did the other party procrastinate to obtain the potion formula of Sequence 8 in such a short period of time?
Soon, after Ember finished writing, he pushed the parchment to Miss Justice on the opposite side.

Audrey was obviously extremely excited, but her expression was extremely reserved. She took the parchment elegantly and glanced at it.

"Main materials: the complete pituitary gland of an adult colorful lizard, and 10 ml of spinal fluid from Falsman rabbits.

Auxiliary materials: 5 grams of chestnut spores, 8 grams of agaric powder, 3 petals of pure white fairy flower, 100 ml of pure water. "

"Thank you very much, Mr. Lover."

Audrey suppressed the joy in her heart and smiled sweetly.

Ember nodded slightly, but did not respond too much.

However, Klein and the Hanged Man, who were watching at this time, discovered the abnormality at the same time.

because--

"Miss Justice didn't mention the reward?!"

This is absolutely not normal!

It is known that Miss Justice is not short of money, and every time she mentions the reward up front.

But this time, after getting the mind reader formula, she didn't mention the reward!
Not only did he not mention the remuneration, nor did he mention how to remunerate the other party.

It can't be that Miss Justice has forgotten, right?

This is obviously impossible.

Or, did she already pay in advance?
Have they met in reality?Miss Justice has already paid the other party in reality?

There is only this explanation!

The only question is, how did they meet?
If two people in completely different social circles live in the same city, they may never know each other for the rest of their lives.

In other words, there is a great overlap between the social circles of Miss Justice and Mr. Lover?

It is known that Miss Justice is a great nobleman of Backlund, and the 'lover' is related to the Church of Evernight, most likely a Nighthawk of the Church of Evernight.

But if this is the case alone, the possibility of them meeting is extremely low.

It is impossible for Miss Justice to take the initiative to find the trace of Mr. Lover, there is neither reason nor possibility.

So, it was the 'lover' who took the initiative to find Miss Justice?

Or, they have known each other for a long time in reality, and that 'lover' is also a descendant of a certain great nobleman.

So they recognized each other at the tarot meeting?
In just a short moment, countless guesses flashed through the minds of Klein and the Hanged Man.

But no matter what the situation is, it is an established fact that the two have met in reality.

"I have a commission."

The Hanged Man's eyes moved slightly, and he said slowly, "I want to know whether the king intends to take revenge on the Feysac Empire within this year or before June next year, and start a new war on the east coast of Balam. Miss Justice, Mister Lover, Which of you can accept this commission?"

"Hmm~"

Miss Justice subconsciously looked at Ember, seeing that he seemed to have no intention of accepting the entrustment, she nodded and said, "I accept this entrustment, but it will take enough time to confirm. Besides, Mr. Hanged Man, I hope You can help me find the complete pituitary gland of the colorful lizard."

"I can wait."

Argel the Hanged Man nodded lightly, "As for the complete pituitary gland of the colorful lizard, this sub-dragon species is almost extinct. But there are still traces of them on some primitive islands in the sea. I can find a way to help you get them." , but it will take some time.”

At the same time, Alger already had a guess in his mind.

Is this Mr. "Lover" not interested, or is there no way to get such information?

Probably not the latter.

Miss Justice subconsciously glanced at the 'lover', indicating that Ember should be able to know this in her heart.

But not necessarily, the information is not enough for the time being, and it is impossible to make an accurate judgment.

"I also have a commission."

Ember slowly said, "This entrustment is long-term and has always been effective. Anyone who has any relevant clues can let them know at any time. I will give rewards according to the value of the clues."

"What kind of commission?"

The Hanged Man's expression moved slightly, and he asked.

"The Dark Emperor."

Ember slowly said, "This is the only hint I know. If you know more clues, I can give you a reward."

"The Dark Emperor?"

Miss Justice was a little puzzled, while the Hanged Man said slowly, "I don't think you're referring to the Black Emperor of the Solomon Empire in history?"

"I don't know what the Solomon Empire is. I think you can tell me."

Ember shook her head and said calmly.

The Hanged Man was silent for two seconds as if he was sorting out his words, and said, "The Solomon Empire was a powerful empire in a certain period of the Fourth Epoch, and each of their rulers was called the 'Black Emperor'."
