Mystery: Days and Nights of Struggle with the Research Society

Chapter 136 Visitors come one after another

Klein stared at the letter in his hand in stunned silence, and then at the place where the bone monster disappeared. He subconsciously rubbed his eyes to confirm that he had read it correctly.

What was going on just now? He was confused but cautiously approached the place where the bone monster disappeared. He carefully poked the floor there with the silver-inlaid cane placed aside. However, he didn't find any problem, so he had to turn his attention. Put it on the letter sent by the bone monster.

This letter looks very delicate. The outer cover is made of thick and smooth special paper with exquisite golden patterns printed on it. The opening is sealed by a fire seal that looks like an Ouroboros symbol.Klein picked it up and took a look at it, and found that the letter still had a faint fragrance.

This kind of gorgeous and exaggerated style unique to the Loen nobles is simply incompatible with me, and no one I know would do this.
Could this be a letter sent by the magic gun classmate?

Hmm. If it was Su Ya, it wouldn't be surprising to create a bone monster.

Klein first did a simple divination to confirm that there was no danger, then he muttered to himself and opened the envelope with a knife, took out the gaudy and fragrant letter inside, shook it open and read it speechlessly.

"Dear Klein, good evening.

By the time you read this letter, you should have already seen the cute bone messenger.While it may scare you, it's probably not intentional. "

That 'cute' bone messenger may not have been intentional, but you definitely did it on purpose, Mr. Shengun.

Klein complained, and then continued to look down.

"This responsible little cutie was lent to me by an elder we both know. Before I could really have my own messenger, its arrival solved a lot of my worries."

"Klein, I sincerely suggest that you go and visit Mr. Azik tomorrow. Maybe you can get a little help from him. - Yours sincerely, Suya."

The text message ended here. Klein read it over and over several times to make sure that the student Shengun had no other intentions. He couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, wondering what Su Ya was doing.

Is Mr. Shengun showing off to me that he has a messenger?It’s not your own!But is that elder talking about Mr. Azik?When did Mr. Azik meet Mr. Shengun?Our relationship is so good that we can borrow a courier.
Klein smacked his lips with a bit of grit and put the letter in the drawer of his desk. He planned to follow Mr. Azik's advice when he got up tomorrow morning.

Although Mr. Shengun has always been a bit mysterious, and he likes to talk half-hidden and half-hidden, making people want to beat him up, but when it comes to serious matters, Su Ya is still quite reliable.

Since he took the initiative to write this letter to remind himself, it means that Mr. Azik is completely trustworthy in Suya's eyes. Just before, when we were clearing out evil spirits in the town of Ramde, I had discovered the possibility of being related to Azik. I am planning to tell him the clues about my husband's past when he returns to Tingen.

Well, you can get up a little early tomorrow morning, visit Mr. Azik first, and then report to the Blackthorn Security Company. There haven't been too many tasks on the Nighthawks side in recent days, and the captain probably won't say anything if he's a little late. What.

After thinking for a moment, Klein stood up from the desk and yawned. He walked to the window again, reached out to hold the curtain, and prepared to continue what he had just unfinished before going to sleep.

But this time he still failed to complete this simple action.

The familiar, cold breath blew past his side without warning again, and the gas lamp that had returned to its original state due to the disappearance of the Bone Messenger turned green again.

Klein stood speechless, looking at the translucent face with no eyes, no nose and only a mouth that suddenly stood out from the wall below the gas lamp and above the desk in his spiritual vision. There was a feeling that tonight I had an ominous feeling that I might not be able to sleep well.

"Don't shoot." The face said with its mouth open and closed.

Klein silently glanced at the revolver in his hand. The incident ended suddenly. He hadn't had time to put the revolver back, but at this time, he had no intention of shooting.

Could this be someone's messenger?Whose could it be?

"I'm Daly." As if he saw Klein's confusion, the face chuckled and explained.

"I know that this kind of visit is too rough. I should inform you in advance to make you fully prepared. However, it is not convenient for me to meet you directly now. I can only communicate with you through this little guy." The translucent The eyeless and noseless face laughed.

Ah, this is indeed Ms. Dai Li's speaking style, but madam, have you made an appointment with the magic stick classmate?His messenger just left, and you came again. My bedroom is a little too lively tonight, isn't it?

Klein complained secretly, and then asked, "Madam, why did you come to see me?"

"In fact, I originally came to you because of the 'acting method'." The translucent face said slowly and slowly, "Dern mentioned your matter to me in his letter this week. Haha, I didn’t expect Su Ya to teach you this, and you are willing to share this knowledge with them.”

"He shared this matter with me without any concealment, and asked me if I had mastered a similar method that enabled me to be promoted so quickly before." There was a hint of sweetness in Ms. Dai Li's voice. She let a slight smile appear on her translucent face, and then said:

"It took me nearly two years to realize this clearly, but it has only been a month and a half since you became an extraordinary person."

"This is because you are my role model, and Suya has also given me great help in this matter." Klein considered it for a moment, then smiled calmly.

Although his 'acting method' can be seen from Russell's diary, without Su Ya's help to endorse it, even if he has completely digested the 'diviner', he would not dare to directly apply for Sequence 8 from the church at this time. of the 'Joker' potion.

Klein casually put the revolver into his inner pocket, turned around and looked at the strange face protruding from the wall and said:

"Ms. Dai Li, did you come to me just for this?" "Huh? Little Klein, I thought you would ask me, since I have mastered the 'acting method' a long time ago, why didn't I teach it to Deng? En and the other Nighthawks." The corners of the translucent face with only a mouth raised slightly, and he asked curiously.

I know this. It must be the higher-ups of the church who made you swear not to spread the word, otherwise you wouldn't have even told the captain.

Klein thought silently.

As for why the church's top leaders didn't tell every Nighthawk about the 'acting method', he had roughly guessed the reason since he heard Su Ya explain the laws of extraordinary characteristics.

——Since the extraordinary characteristics precipitated after the death of extraordinary people can be used as the main materials of the corresponding sequence, once more extraordinary people know the 'playing method' and are promoted quickly, it will inevitably cause a shortage of materials in the extraordinary world, and also It's bound to get confusing.

In this world, there will always be people who take risks regardless of the church's intimidation and take the initiative to kill and eat people in order to get promoted.

Compared with the chaos that is likely to be caused by the public 'acting method', maintaining the status quo is a better choice. However, although I can understand the considerations of the church's senior leaders, there are obviously better ways to reduce the probability of losing control. But he couldn't use this thing. Klein still felt a little uncomfortable.

Alas, I am really not suitable to be a leader. Klein laughed at himself, looked at the strange translucent face and explained:

"Suya told me something."

Hmm. Classmate Shengun is really a perfect candidate to take the blame. At least in the church, the benefits brought by his identity are really useful. Klein felt a little emotional.

"Your relationship is indeed very good." Dai Li had no doubts. She had roughly guessed the answer before she asked, so she was not surprised.

"Actually, I just wanted to thank you. Well, by the way, I want to ask about Dunn's current situation." Dai Li let the strange face sigh and said calmly, not because of talking about her relationship with her lover. But she felt shy like an ordinary girl.

"It's just that after I let this little guy enter Tingen's range, I suddenly felt a strange feeling." Ms. Dai Li's voice was a little confused, and she had some inexplicable complex emotions.

"I always feel that I should meet you."

Um?Is Ms. Dai Li a little irritable because of her long-term long-distance relationship?This is normal. Madam, as long as you meet the captain in real life, it will be fine.Klein, a strong keyboard player who has been single for more than [-] years, snickered in his heart, and then he started to persuade:
"Madam, maybe you can apply to the church for a trip back to Tingen. Well, although I have shared the 'acting method' with my teammates, after all, I am still just a newcomer who has just become an extraordinary person. I am afraid I still need someone who is good enough. The 'senior' Nighthawks came to give us some training."

Klein said solemnly.

"You are such a smart young man." Dai Li's translucent face deliberately relaxed for a moment and said with a smile.

She had decided to use this excuse to apply for a trip back to Tingen soon.

Although anyone with a discerning eye would know what this excuse was, Dai Li knew that church leaders would generally not stop such things, but would take the initiative to fulfill them.

Madam, you are actually not much older than me.Klein complained in his mind, but he soon remembered that Ms. Daly was about to get engaged to the captain at the end of the year.

After Ms. Dai Li gets engaged to the captain, she shouldn't be able to call her that, right? What should I call her then?It feels so weird to call me madam.

"Okay, Klein, I don't have anything else to do." The weird translucent face obviously didn't notice the confusion on Klein's face, but continued, "If you have any questions or need help, You can write to me anywhere. Well, our communication should not go through the post office. I will teach you a relatively simple ritual magic, which can summon a unique spirit as a messenger."

messenger?Klein perked up, looked at the strange face on the wall with interest, and listened intently.

Although he was a little frightened by tonight's encounter, it was more of a yearning for this method of messaging - Klein also wanted to have such a messenger.

Although Klein could see from the hints in Su Ya's letter that he might be able to get help in this regard from Mr. Azik, but what if Mr. Azik didn't lend him the messenger?And you can’t always borrow a borrowed messenger.
Dai Li chuckled and said: "The characteristic of this kind of ritual magic is that it prays to oneself and extracts power from one's own spirituality. It does not need to go through the gods, so it is quite hidden."

It turns out that Klein was memorizing it carefully while analyzing the process of the ceremony. After Dai Li repeated the description several times and he had memorized the entire process thoroughly, Klein suddenly thought of something:
If the description of the summoned object is changed to 'The Fool who does not belong to this era, the mysterious master above the gray fog, the yellow and black king who controls good luck', what will be summoned?

Klein felt as if he had been scratched by a cat's claws, but when he remembered the consequences of his previous attempt to commit suicide and see the Eternal Blazing Sun, he still hesitated. In the end, the remaining fear in his heart defeated his curiosity. Klein decided to follow his heart's wishes and planned to wait. When I have time, I will go to the gray mist to do a divination first, and then I will decide whether to try it or not.

Klein watched as the translucent eyeless and noseless face slowly retracted into the wall, leaving no trace behind, and the room once again returned to its previous brightness and warmth.

"Ms. Dai Li's ability is really powerful, but the magic gun student seems to be not bad either. Alas, the abilities of Sequence 6 level seem to be very strong. I don't know when I will reach this level." Klein muttered silently to himself. Two sentences, a little envious.

But thinking of the clown who belonged to the Secret Order that he saw in the incident involving Riel Bieber and Antigonus' notes, Klein's heart was suddenly filled with motivation.

Although the guy died miserably in the end. But at that time, an entire team of well-equipped Nighthawks besieged the guy alone. In the end, the opponent also died from Suya's flames due to the stiffness caused by the sealed object '2-049'.

It is said that it is the 'Magician' in the follow-up Sequence 7 of the 'Soothsayer'. This ability to be able to deal with the siege of several powerful people of the same level at the same time is really desirable.

Alas, if I am not looking for a way to return home, then it is enough to be promoted to Sequence 7. I will have enough ability to protect myself, and the salary is also very considerable. I can live a very prosperous life with Benson and Melissa. Help Benson Get the right wife so Melissa can go to college.
After thinking about it for a while, Klein came to his senses after realizing that he was only a Sequence 9 person. He quickly lifted the spiritual wall and extinguished the gas light in the bedroom, and lay quietly on the bed in the darkness.
