Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

Chapter 101 Decision
Even in winter, the smog in Backlund's sky will not change in any way. The gloomy sky won't see many clearing days. Every morning when I wake up, frost will form on the windows due to the temperature difference.

Esther is not particularly afraid of the cold, but she also prefers to stay indoors in this weather, and check some historical books in the public library that are more legendary than textual.

Xiao Wu almost stopped communicating with her at all, as if he only wanted to wait for the day when Esther left for Baiya Town, and he was sure that she would take the risk to go there.

Even if Esther still has the "obsessive-compulsive bow tie" in her hand, it is impossible for her to explore an ancient Quaternary tomb with an ordinary dagger, so she is still in the position of a bystander in the new week's Tarot meeting. The position, without much participation, continued to observe many members here.

However, Esther's opportunity came not too slowly. In the past few days, at the new meeting of the "Brave Bar", a woman who was fully wrapped up proposed to sell weapons, which happened to meet Esther's requirements. s things.

After paying a "huge sum" of five hundred pounds, Esther obtained a dagger that was only the length of an adult male's forearm. It feels warm and shines in dark places by absorbing sunlight for a long time.

The last function is really meaningless in Backlund, but Esther is very satisfied with its ability to harm evil spirits.

The money Esther gave Klein to keep shrank by half in an instant. Klein didn't approve of her being so anxious at first, and he could take a look at it after a while, but Esther didn't want to procrastinate any longer.

She planned to explore the tomb before the new week's Tarot Society, hunt the human-skinned shadows there, and then take this opportunity to ask other people about "Zoya".

As Klein said in the chat - Esther has always seemed very anxious recently, feeling like she is being chased by an untimely bomb.

But Klein didn't say anything, he knew how troublesome the secrets about Esther were.

"Don't be in a hurry, don't do anything too dangerous." Klein just said that in the end, without specifying the voice of "don't chaotically pray to the evil god".

Esther let out a haha, and quickly left Minsk Street with the newly acquired dagger, fearing that Klein would notice something.

When getting along with Klein, she always feels more at ease unconsciously, a bit like when she returned to Tingen.There is no need to put up a shell when facing others, and even a few strange words that do not belong to this world can be understood by the other party occasionally. After relaxing in this way, Esther can easily express her true thoughts on her face.

Of course Klein could see that she had other plans, but he didn't insist on blocking the fellow's actions. He only hoped that when she encountered danger, she would remember as soon as possible and ask The Fool for help.

Everyone needs to grow.

Klein also frequently walks on the tightrope of crisis in order to constantly seek opportunities for promotion. His desire to improve himself is no less than Esther.

But in such a peaceful age, Extraordinary materials will not drop from the sky.

-

The driver of the rental carriage was a very talkative person, seeing that Esther was traveling alone, it was inevitable to ask a few more questions.Esther made up an excuse to visit her elders, and it was difficult to deal with these homely topics. Fortunately, the "swindler"'s bonus to eloquence was still working, so that her lies would not be full of loopholes.

Esther clenched the parasol in her hand, resisting the thought of stealing the other party's thoughts of conversation, and kept telling herself not to abuse extraordinary abilities to ordinary people.

Because of this conversation, Esther felt exhausted when she got off the carriage, so she could only find a hotel to rest.

As soon as the door to the hotel room was closed, Five poked her head out of her pocket, and Esther put it on the table.

"Have you made up your mind?"

Xiao Wu woke up as early as halfway, and Esther did not touch it because she had to explore the mausoleum later.

Esther pulled out the short sword from the tied parasol and put it on the table: "Yes, I hope no one else has noticed it."

"It would be fine if you want something else, such as the Extraordinary characteristics of the 'Thief' path, then I know where more treasures are."

Esther's hand, which was counting the hemostatic medicine and bandages on her body, suddenly paused: "There shouldn't be any in the treasure you mentioned..."

"Yeah, for example, Sequence Four 'Parasite'. Since you can directly accommodate my Extraordinary characteristics, if you eat something else, maybe you can really go up directly?" Xiao Wu's voice was cheerful and full of encouragement.

"Swallowing Extraordinary characteristics alive will make you crazy, at least except for my special case, I have never seen anyone who does not need potions to advance."

"We don't need potions either, we just need to eat other people's Extraordinary characteristics."

Esther's eyes widened slightly, but soon she regained her composure: "So that's it, 'Parasite'..."

What she could think about suddenly became clear, and she touched her right eye socket with her fingertips, and Esther asked Xiao Wu with a smile: "Could it be that your form is a medium for parasites?"

Esther didn't know that the way she laughed and the tone of her voice made Xiao Wu feel weird like never before. Xiao Wu shrank back and responded to this question with silence.

Esther glanced at it strangely: "What are you hiding? I won't eat you. Oh, I forgot, I've already eaten your Extraordinary characteristics."

"Your attitude now is a bit like our Patriarch."

After Xiao Wu threw out this sentence, Esther glanced at it full of disgust: "To be honest, your Patriarch doesn't sound like a good person, are you scolding me?"

Instead, Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's much more normal now."

"Well, I have to admit that I have been a little stressed and tense recently, and may be affected by something you left behind."

"I wish you would return it to me."

Esther laughed dryly and didn't continue the topic. Since she spent too much energy being dragged and chatted in the carriage in the afternoon, she decided to go to the mausoleum to investigate tomorrow and take a good rest at the hotel tonight.

When the sun rises tomorrow morning, she will set off full of energy.

"I don't know if there is anything delicious in Baiya Town..."

"No, even the variety of restaurants is much less than that in Backlund. But if you go further to the southwest, going straight to Disi Bay is a good choice. Although I don't like the hot tide over there."

Esther couldn't help laughing softly as she listened to the relaxed narration of the little five friends.

When the laughter subsided, she put the things she had just counted back where they belonged, making sure she could get them out as soon as she needed them.

"If I have the chance, I would also like to take a look around. It should be very interesting."

Xiao Wu was very puzzled: "Aren't you ready to leave at any time? There is no one dragging you behind you. As long as you are forgotten, it doesn't matter where you go."

"No, I'd rather have someone drag me. But I guess you don't understand."

Esther stretched her waist: "Just treat me as lazy, this world is too dangerous, and I'm a person who hates trouble."

Thinking of the hall of "The Fool" filled with gray fog, the Tarot Society with different members, and the strange "Lover" card, Esther knew that her troubles would only increase.
