Mystery: Days and Nights of Struggle with the Research Society

Chapter 162 The Hanged Man’s Request
As soon as Klein finished speaking, Alger, the Hanged Man, spoke before everyone else:

"Mr. 'Fool', Mr. 'Wheel of Fortune', Miss 'Justice', I have received a piece of information. The great pirate Qilingos, known as 'Vice Admiral Hurricane', secretly landed ashore not long ago and infiltrated Backlund. The purpose is to accomplish a difficult task.”

"'Vice Admiral Hurricane' Qilingos? One of the seven pirate generals?" 'Justice' Audrey's eyes widened slightly and she asked in surprise, almost unable to maintain her audience status.

This is a character that only exists in legends among nobles!The legendary robbing general—what would such a person do in Backlund?To assassinate?Or to seize the treasure?
Audrey's mind was flooded with plots from countless adventure novels, and she was a little excited and a little nervous.

"Lieutenant General Hurricane? He should be a mid-level 'sailor'. If he doesn't serve as his pirate general at sea, why would he go to Backlund? Aren't you afraid of being killed by the extraordinary people of the Church of Storms?" Suya raised his eyebrows in pretending to be surprised. , asked with a smile.

Hmm. This should be the plot in the original book where the Death Angel under the Fool showed his power for the first time. But now that Mr. Azik is not in Backlund, should I come forward to pretend to be Mr. Fool’s favored one and give Klein a favor? A group photo?

After all, the little starving thing should be interesting if it falls into the hands of Gehrman. There is no "hungry thing that doesn't dare to squirm". When Gehrman comes out in the future, I feel that the character is not used to it.
Alger naturally didn't know all the thoughts that flashed through Suya's mind. He looked at a few people solemnly and introduced: "Qilingos is a Sequence 6 Extraordinary 'Wind Blessed' of the 'Sailor' path, and he also has A very powerful sealed artifact with a very cunning and cruel personality.”

"Miss Justice, I would like to ask you to help keep an eye on the news about Qilingos, but you must not try to deal with him yourself. The reward will be in exchange for my answers to your questions and other news that interests you." said. Then, he paused, turned to Su Ya's direction and said: "Mr. 'Wheel of Fortune', if you are in Backlund, can I ask you to take action?"

'Justice' is only Sequence 9 now, but she obviously has a higher status and may get information that he can't currently get.

As for 'Wheel of Fortune', he should be at least a Sequence 6 expert, maybe even higher.As an extraordinary person with a strong demigod behind him, the 'Wheel of Fortune' is very likely to kill Qilingos. Even if it doesn't work, it can help stop that guy. Then I can report it to the church.
I just don't know what kind of reward 'Wheel of Fortune' will ask for. But judging from his previous attitude towards 'Justice', at least it won't be cash, so I may still be able to afford it. Alger thought about each thought in his mind, His eyes were always looking at the 'Wheel of Fortune', waiting for his answer.

"'Wind Blessed'?" Su Ya sat there peacefully, looking at Alger's slightly nervous and anxious look through a layer of gauze, and nodded gently, without rejecting or affirming, "I will give you Tell me what you got, Mr. Hanged Man."

"Okay. I got the news recently." Alger's eyes lit up and he immediately started talking.

In his opinion, there might be something on Qilingos that would make Wheel of Fortune's heart beat, such as the item that is said to help him become a high-sequence powerhouse quickly. As long as Qilingos is on Qilingos If something is tempting, maybe he is willing to take action and kill Qilingos by the way.

Alger is naturally very excited about this high-sequence item, but he is more self-aware - he only has Sequence 7, and rather than taking risks for an unknown item, he hopes to master his own secret Qi. Ringos died.

Although he actually wanted to seek help from Mr. Fool's favored one. Alger, the Hanged Man, looked at the Fool who was standing high in the thick gray mist, but thought that he seemed to have not made any contribution to Mr. Fool so far. He hesitated for a moment, but still didn't speak. "Becoming a high-sequence powerhouse soon? Isn't he afraid of losing control?" Audrey grabbed the key point of the other party's description and asked in confusion.

"I don't know." Alger said calmly, "I only know that it is said that as long as Qilingos can get this item, he may become a pirate king at the level of the 'Four Kings', so this is the inference, after all." The Four Kings are either directly high-sequence strong men, or possess high-sequence combat power."

I only know that the 'King of the Five Seas' Nast is at least a strong person in Sequence 4. Klein listened quietly and did not express his opinion easily.

Pirate General Gokai Backlund Is this the outside world?Derrick Berg sat there obediently and listened attentively. Although he had no idea what the "Hanged Man" was describing, he could only vaguely feel that the world was opening up in front of him. door.

"I have an idea of ​​what that thing might be," Suya interjected with a smile.

"Mr. 'Wheel of Fortune,' what did you guess?" 'Justice' Audrey's eyes sparkled and she couldn't help but ask curiously.

"In this world, there are not many things that can have a similar effect on Qilingos of Sequence 6." Suya leaned back gently in a leisurely manner and commented easily, "For example, obtaining a piece of the same path The 'sacred object', and with the recognition of this 'sacred object', you can display demigod-level combat power in a short period of time during the mid-sequence."

"Some senior members of the Zhengshen Church who have not yet been promoted to high-sequence have used similar methods to obtain high-sequence combat power in advance, and relatively speaking, this method is not very dangerous, and it will not affect subsequent promotions."

"But this method first requires that the 'holy object' itself must have a certain degree of specialness, and the holder must also be recognized. And given that 'Vice Admiral Hurricane' Qilingos is only a Sequence 6 pirate, this method may not It’s not suitable for him,” Suya explained.

Hmm. The most Adam can do is use the Blasphemy card to seduce him, but a pirate general with only Sequence 6, even with 'Creep Hunger', is unlikely to successfully assassinate Duke Negan, right? What is the 'Sunset Death House Group' doing? No matter how good the 'Singer of God' is, the plan of finding a Sequence 6 to assassinate the Duke doesn't seem very reliable.
Well, speaking of Duke Negan, he seems to be at odds with the cheap daddy. I feel like it’s not appropriate for me to use my identity to take action on this matter.

He was thinking, but did not show it on his face, but continued, "In addition, there are several more possible things. They may be the potion formulas, rituals and materials that he will need for promotion later, or they may be some It’s a sealed object with not particularly serious side effects.”

"Miss Justice, which one do you think is more likely?" Suya looked at Audrey with encouraging eyes.
