ghost on paper

Chapter 32
Early the next morning.

Truman went out fully dressed.

He didn't take the lunch bag handed over by the landlord, and said he should come back for lunch.

"What's wrong with your work?" The landlord was keenly aware of the abnormality, because in the past two months or so, Truman has always gone to work to eat.

"I'm looking for a new job," Truman said.

Oh... The landlord had a regretful expression on his face. After all, in this city, unemployment means lack of food and clothing, and he will soon be unable to pay the rent.

Seeing the landlord's expression, Truman added, "It's a new job introduced by the housekeeper from Habsburg."

In the next moment, Truman saw the landlord's face-changing skills. It only took 0.1 seconds from the clouds to the flowers blooming.

Truman left with a smile, while the landlord behind him was still standing there, watching Truman's back with reverent eyes.

In Lundini, as long as it has something to do with the word "Habsburg", it will definitely be respected by people.

Truman needs a new job.

Truman will not use the power obtained by being promoted to Extraordinary to break the law, obtain money, or even hide it. The principle is: people are in a different world, so be careful in everything.

Although he has not been in contact with the Extraordinary, Truman is keenly aware that because the dead Extraordinary can analyze the existence of the rule of 'characteristic', the relationship between the Extraordinary, from a certain point of view, is also the same as that of the 'Hunter' and Patterns between 'prey'.

Truman's mask can accommodate 3 characteristics, after installing 'sensitivity' and 'copying', there is still 1 space left.

He thought it would be great if there was a trait that would provide some sort of weapon form or combat stance to fill in the gaps.

Then Truman's expected assassin incarnation will take shape.

Truman wanted traits so much, how could other Extraordinary people not want them.

……

After half an hour.

Truman came to the dock area of ​​Lundini.

The dock area is located in the easternmost part of Lundini, built along the waterfront of the Oise River, and from then on down the river is an ocean, with smooth waterways, so it is very prosperous.

The prosperity here is different from the orderliness of the central area, but filled with a kind of chaos and heat.

There are freighters docked and well-dressed traders everywhere, a large number of goods are transported to the shore, and a large number of goods leave the shore.

In this world and this era, the city of Lundini is one of the centers of the entire world.

Truman looked for his target from the buildings along the coast, and soon saw a prominent signboard: Habs Shipping Company.

……

Truman waited a full hour at the shipping company before he got the butler.

Looking for a job~ Truman comforted himself to relax.

"Mr. Truman, I'm very sorry, I have some business to deal with, so I'm late." The butler said.

Although he was apologizing, there was no apologetic attitude. The raised chin carried the usual arrogance of the aristocrats. Truman still expressed his understanding for this, after all, it was this semi-feudal and semi-capitalist society.

"Your job is to identify 'antiques' from all over the world and determine whether they contain spiritual texts." The butler said while looking at Truman, "This is not difficult for you with outstanding talents, right? ?”

"Antique? Lingwen?" Truman was a little surprised, "Do you mean it looks like the screen we saw in Habsburg that day?"

"That's right." The housekeeper nodded, "I'll take you to the warehouse to have a look."

……

The warehouse of the Hubbs Shipping Company is many times larger than the warehouse of the potion workshop.

It is near the pier. It is a building similar to the assembly workshop on the earth. It is more than ten meters high and covers an area of ​​nearly a thousand square meters. It uses very advanced construction technology in this era.

A large number of goods are stored in various parts of the warehouse, separated by wooden boards, and these goods are all pottery, pottery of various shapes.

In addition to Truman, there are several other well-dressed gentlemen who are identifying these pottery. Once it is confirmed that there are spiritual texts on them, they will be affixed with unique labels and await further processing.

Truman was amazed by this scene. He felt as if he had arrived at the excavation site of Qin Shihuang's terracotta warriors and horses on earth.

"Where do these pottery come from?" Truman couldn't help asking.

"All over the world." The butler answered simply.

"Is the excavation of spiritual texts for the promotion of the young Baron Habs?" Truman asked again. This is too much work, and a potion needs so many raw materials.

"You don't need to know too much." The butler avoided answering, "How much is your income in the potion workshop?"

"About 10 gold pounds a month." Truman replied honestly.

"Here you will get a basic salary of 15 gold pounds, and if the number of identification exceeds a certain amount, you will also get a reward of about 15 gold pounds." The butler promised.

Not bad.The treatment of this new job made Truman a little happy.

……

"Habsburg has set such a high salary for this job, which also means that it has potential risks. Of course, for an Extraordinary, as long as you are cautious enough, there will be no problem at all, and the most important thing you need Just being cautious..."

Truman is on the phone with the workshop owner.

At Truman's request, the landlord Zhiqu avoided the conversation.

Now, listening to the workshop owner's voice from the old-fashioned split telephone, Truman didn't know whether he was praising himself or saying that he was too cautious, so for a Extraordinary of the 'actor' sequence Say, it's a little dangerous.

The owner of the workshop recommended Truman's work, and Truman always had to report to her about his status and keep in touch, so that it would be easier to talk to her when he needed something in the future.

"How do you feel after being promoted to Extraordinary?" the workshop owner asked.

"The 'share' has grown very slowly." Truman expressed his confusion. Since completing the ceremony, his 'share' has stagnated.

"'Actors' have no performances, so how do you increase your 'share'?" The workshop owner said, "I have received a message that a piece of the 'Mystery Monument' will be delivered to Lundiny, and it will appear in your work place."

"Teacher, are you saying...?" Truman didn't understand.

"It may help you increase your 'share'." The workshop owner said.

"What is the mysterious monument?" Truman asked.

"As for the carrier containing about 50 spiritual texts, the academic community agrees that it is difficult to translate, so it is called Mysterious So-and-so, and because it is in the shape of a stele, it is called Mysterious Monument." The owner of the workshop explained, "If it reaches 100 characters, it will be called XX without solution, because it takes too much manpower to solve it, and basically no one will organize such a work."

"Can the 'Monument of Mystery' help Extraordinary people increase their 'share'?" Truman asked.

"If the above spiritual text is complete, it may have such an effect." The owner of the workshop said, "This is a kind of feedback. Of course, the 50-character spiritual text carrier is for any translator in Lundiny at this moment. For me, it’s a bit difficult, but for you, it might be different.”

"Just by translating it, can the 'share' be increased?" Truman asked.

"The premise is that it is complete." The workshop owner said.

"If the 'carrier of mystery' that translates more than 50 characters will be rewarded." Truman studied this matter, "Doesn't that mean that there are many Extraordinary people who can possess this strength?"

"That's right." The owner of the workshop said naturally, "Do you know that there is a newspaper called "Pursuit of Truth"?"

Of course I didn’t know that Truman didn’t even like to read the Lundinian, which had the largest circulation in the city.

"You can buy it when you have time, it can broaden your horizons." The owner of the workshop said.

He has no idea about the newspaper Truman for the time being, he just has a question: "Teacher, what rank are those Extraordinary beings who can translate 50-character spiritual text?"

"Legend, or myth." The workshop owner said.

Is this an area where I can meddle?Truman shook his head secretly.

　I live in Guangzhou, and I don’t have Wubi on my laptop. There may be typos in these two chapters and I’ll go back and correct them. I’ll spend some words describing the protagonist’s work and life in another world. This is always a main line, not too many, but it will exist .
