Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 353 Characteristics of the person you play the role of

After applying Laura's communication potion on the mirror in the basement, Angel quietly waited for the other party to "connect" the communication.

It's a bit like the dialing stage of a phone call... It's a pity that the communication potion is constantly being consumed. Even if the call is not connected, the "call charges" will be wasted.

After extinguishing her random thoughts, she thought of the 1400 pounds she had received from Sherlock yesterday, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

Counting the cash that Angel had before and the 800 pounds reward from the Machinery Heart after solving the "Apostle of Desire", her deposit once again exceeded the 3000 pound mark. According to Loen's price level and the relatively stable investment rate of return, this amount It is already a deposit that is enough for one to retire and enjoy life.

In addition, the reward of at least 1000 pounds promised by "Eye of Wisdom" Isengard Stanton, and the 3800 pounds owed by "Justice" Audrey...

The pleasure of suddenly becoming rich filled her heart, but unfortunately it did not improve the level of "pleasure" digestion. This also confirmed Laura's words from the side. The pleasure witch's digestion really depends on that aspect of behavior...

Just when her thoughts ran away to other places like a wild horse, the half-length mirror in front of her turned dark, and then, Laura's figure appeared inside.

The senior "Pleasure Witch" was wearing a complicated and exquisite palace dress, with a rare light makeup on her face. She was probably getting ready to go out. When she saw Angel on the other side of the mirror, she nodded without surprise. said:
  "Is there any new news?"

"Yes."

There was no contact with each other for two weeks, during which many things happened that Laura was concerned about. Angel told how the human trafficker Barron and Capin's former bodyguard Heras died in the East District, the scene that was quickly burned down that night, and his suspicion of the royal family. , the cooperation between the military and the Witch Sect were all told to this witch who had been trying to deal with the Witch Sect.

Then there is the important evidence: Equestrian coach Talim probably died of the witch's curse, and his case was transferred away by the royal family, and it is suspected that he was treated coldly.

Finally, she also described in detail Triss's failure to escape again. Although Laura was also at the dance at the time, Triss's frightening change might not be visible from another angle. .

After listening to Angel's narration, Laura fell into a brief thought, and then murmured.

"Prince Edsac... Sure enough, the Witch Cult placed Triss beside him, actually as a hostage and liaison? And the equestrian coach you mentioned who was cursed to death, Talim Dumont, , as far as I know, he is indeed very close to this prince. He was the one who accompanied Triss at the ball that night. It was he who let the horses go outside and caused a commotion to create an opportunity for Triss to escape. If he He got involved in the prince and Triss's 'romance', and there is a high possibility that he will be dealt with by using the curse.

"However, according to my investigation with Vincent, the prince who is later in the line of succession has been living in his Red Rose Manor in the suburbs during this period. He only occasionally goes out for social activities. It doesn't seem like there is anything going on secretly. Conspiracy...but it does not rule out that he used this behavior to paralyze other royal members and was actually planning some big action."

"The planned operation... won't be related to "Lady Desperate", right?"

Angel suddenly thought of the demigod of the Witch Cult who was about to return to Backlund.

"It is possible that this desperate lady Panatia is still in Trier, the capital of Intis, and will soon return to the Kingdom of Loen. She attaches great importance to rituals and will choose a steam train to travel through half of the northern continent. It’s not a dangerous journey through the spiritual world in the mirror, but in a week at most, she will return to Backlund and regain control of everything here. No matter what conspiracy the Witch Sect has, her true appearance will be revealed at that time.”

"At that time, I will have to face this demigod head-on." Angel told Laura about Servilia's "invitation" to meet Ms. Despair, which made her already serious face look more troubled. concern.

"Panadia is not a murderous person. In fact, the middle-level members of the Witch Cult are sparse, and they will not kill their own members casually. But if you accidentally expose your true thoughts, or let her discover that you have any Conceal it...I'm afraid that a Sequence 6 like you can't even escape from her. The high-sequences of the same path absolutely suppress the low-sequences. If you are short of one sequence, you can still try to resist, but if you are short of two..."

Listening to Laura's somewhat pessimistic view, Angel thought of his experience fighting other "witches". Although Mrs. Sharon was Sequence 6, she was obviously prepared in a hurry that night and did not even bring a protective wand, so she died easily. With her cooperation with the two Nighthawks; Mitis, the gray-haired Witch of Joy, showed much stronger combat power than the former. Angel, with a Sequence 7 combat power, carried two magical items The items can only barely match hers.

This still took advantage of a lot of magical items and close combat experience. She didn't dare to expect that the Desperate Lady of Sequence 4 didn't have a single magical item on her body, not to mention that there must be other witches accompanying her, more than a dozen, The gap is hopelessly large...

Fortunately, his current identity is still a member of the Witch Sect. As long as he is prepared, with the protection of the Secret Holy Emblem and Mr. Fool, he does not have to fight head-on with them.

Laura obviously thought so too. She gave Angel detailed instructions on how to hide his thoughts and actions in front of high-sequence extraordinary beings, such as properly revealing some secrets that were not big problems, and misleading the other party's thoughts through micro-expressions. It seemed that she herself had similar thoughts. experience.

"I will continue to follow up on Prince Edsac and their relationship with the military. The three major churches have not made any movements yet. Either they have not received the news, or they are also waiting for an opportunity. And you must Be careful when dealing with Panatia, the desperate lady. If you can get it out of her mouth... forget it, protect yourself first."

She changed her words mid-sentence, making Angel smile slightly, understanding the concern hidden in the words of the witch.

Near the end of the call, she remembered that she still had an important question, stopped Laura who was about to erase the screen, and asked:
  "I have a little doubt about the performance of 'Happiness'."

She vaguely told Laura her acting experience these days, and asked why digestion progressed so rapidly.

After last night, she has digested almost three-quarters of the potion. If this is the normal performance speed, then every Sequence 6 Happy Witch can be done in half a month as long as she grits her teeth and doesn't have that pitiful self-esteem. Complete digestion like a rocket, and be ready to advance to Sequence 5.

How could she see so many pleasure witches but not even a pain witch?
  "This speed is indeed strange..." After listening to her narration, Laura also frowned and expressed confusion, "According to experience, although this stage is not too difficult, even if you know the acting method, you can quickly summarize the acting The key points and rules are also calculated in half a year..."

She suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Angel with a smile in her blue eyes.

"Unless you have some strong emotions, your mood changes in some extreme way during the process of 'pleasure', or... the person you are playing is very special.

"I have heard that for most behaviors that require the steps of 'play-feedback-digest', the higher the object is in the sequence, the stronger the feedback effect."

The higher the sequence, the better the effect... But he is only Sequence 7, which is not even as high as me... That is the former possibility. After I recognized his identity, I did have an extreme change in emotion. Is this the reason?

She was thinking silently, and suddenly found that Laura's figure in the half-length mirror in front of her had disappeared at some point.
