Goddess Wanhua Mirror

He cared more about the maze than Erwin's mood changes.

On the surface, Tring is just a rich young man who came out to experience the adventure life, but in fact they have a clear goal for this trip, in order to complete a major task related to their family status.

Tring's family is not aristocratic, but in the underground world, the Navarro family is a well-deserved prominent underworld, with a long history of more than 500 years, and its influence cannot be underestimated.

More than 200 years ago, the Navarro family joined the Black Hand Brotherhood and was one of the founding members of the Brotherhood, so it has the only hereditary seat in the elders.And the current elder is Tring's father.If nothing else, after he abdicates, the successor will be Trin, who is the eldest son.

However, although his status is unassailable, Tring still hopes to make some impeccable achievements before he officially assumes the position.

By chance, Trin got a piece of information that the god-thieving artifact that the Brotherhood had been looking for was said to have appeared in the north of Duran Kingdom.

The source of the information was a fortune-teller who had been reclusive for many years. By chance, the senior director of the Brotherhood, the "Undead Warlock", found this legendary prophet and obtained this precious information.

So Trin spent money to buy the middleman between the necromancer and the fortune-teller, and got the exact information from him, and then brought the best hands in the family, followed the necromancer all the way to the north of the kingdom.

Regarding the credit for cutting off his own people, Tring didn't have the slightest psychological burden, and he didn't even think it was a shameful act.Because the underground world he lives in has its own rules, the benevolence and morality of ordinary people do not apply here, and his father taught him since he was a child that if he wants to succeed in this cruel and bloody world, he must achieve his goal play hard.

Along the way, Tring was like a shark smelling blood, biting behind the necromancer until he was slapped by the other party in Unos Town before accidentally losing him.

In order to find the target as soon as possible, Trin hired the Elvin team who was stationed there at the time in Unos Town, and soon came to Pine Tree Town, and just learned that a cave called "Spiral Abyss" appeared in the forest to the north. strange maze.

Unlike ordinary ancient ruins, this labyrinth is said to have been built by demons from outside the domain, and it is densely packed with traps but also contains a lot of treasure.

Combining the divination information he had obtained before, Tring determined that the artifact he wanted to find was in this maze!

However, after confirming the target, Tring did not end in a hurry, because judging from the feedback from the vanguard, this maze was far more dangerous than they had imagined before, and there were not only a large number of traps, but also a combination The pattern is arranged, and if there is a slight weakness, it will be sent away by a set.

In addition, the main passage is guarded by a very powerful magic puppet, and Tring does not want to advance rashly and help others to be the pioneer.

Fortunately, Tring's other advantages are not great, but he has a lot of money, and for adventurers who still have to bite the bullet and rush into the maze with a lot of picks, they didn't expect to be able to break through the maze from the very beginning. Instead, he sold the first-hand information he got from looking into the grass as a commodity.

Relying on a large amount of coins, Tring successfully compiled all the information that has been disclosed so far, but the understanding of the inside of the maze is still insufficient.

The waiting process was dull and boring, and Tring felt uncomfortable after staying in the hotel for a few days.Although the local specialties were unexpectedly delicious, red oil hot pot left a deep impression on him, but the feeling of chrysanthemum breathing fire when he went to the toilet the next day made him dare not try any Local dishes with red as the main color.

Extremely bored, Tring decided to have some fun to pass the time.

"Speaking of Erwin, are there any 'good women' in this place?"

As soon as Tring's words left his mouth, Erwin couldn't help but glance at him.The eldest young master was away from home, and he brought a lot of guards around him, but he didn't have any female relatives.I didn't have much thought about traveling outside before, but now that I'm in the town, my mind naturally becomes more active.

However, Erwin still understood the situation in Pine Tree Town to some extent.There are indeed some wandering warblers and pheasants. In the bars where adventurers and mercenaries gather, they are always indispensable, and some of them are also part-time waiters.But the standard of these goods is generally not high, it may be difficult to catch the eyes of the young man in front of him.

"There are no brothels in this town, but there are some waitresses in the bar who are willing to pick up customers, but the figure and appearance...hehe."

"Not even a brothel? Isn't this town too dilapidated?"

Erwin shrugged his shoulders with a smile, and he became more and more contemptuous of Tring in his heart. The rapid development of Pine Town was obvious to all in the north of the kingdom, but the other party simply judged whether it was developed by having a brothel. It is not so much that he is stupid, but It's better to say that they are deliberately disgusting people.

But in any case, Pine Tree Town is not his territory after all, and Erwin has no obligation to argue with Tring, so he said "I'll go find out more information", then got up and walked out.

At this time, one of Tring's subordinates hurried in from the outside and whispered something in his ear. Tring, who was originally bored, suddenly regained his energy.

End of this chapter

Erwin couldn't hear what Tring's subordinates were whispering in his ear, but it was not difficult to guess one or two from the other's beaming expression.And it also confirmed his guess. As soon as Tring finished listening to his subordinate's report, he asked Erwin in an obviously excited tone.

"Erwin, are you familiar with the local God of Medicine cult?"

"I have met Master Lude a few times. I fought side by side with the Lizardmen last year when we were besieging the Lizardmen. We barely know each other."

"Since we know each other, can you introduce me?"

"You want to see Master Lude?"

"I want to do business with him."

Seeing that Trin wanted to meet Lude himself, and also said that he wanted to discuss business, Erwin was slightly relieved.It seems that this guy should be eyeing the magical potion produced by the God of Medicine Sect, which is indeed a good thing that everyone wants.

Tlin and his party came from Yanmu City in the south of the kingdom, which is separated from Pine Town by thousands of mountains and rivers, and it is not a coastal city, so the medicines produced by the God of Medicine Sect rarely flow into them, and they sell the goods. In order not to offend the local sect, the businessman did not publicize the name of the God of Medicine Sect when buying the medicine, but only said that it was a good thing from the north of the kingdom.

Due to the transportation cost caused by geographical reasons, coupled with the many times of changing hands on the way, when these medicines arrived at Yanmu City after several trips, the price had already doubled several times compared to the original price, and there was no market for it.

Because the Tring family was involved in the pharmaceutical industry, they spent a lot of money to get a bottle from the market, and wanted to take it back and analyze it for imitation.As a result, the pharmacist supported by the family checked and found that the composition of the medicine itself is actually very simple, just a few simple flavorings mixed with water. What really exerts the miraculous healing effect is the divine power contained in the medicine, which cannot be imitated by mortals. .

The results of the analysis disappointed the senior family members, but they also couldn't help being curious about the producer who made the potion. Finally, after many inquiries, they learned that it was a unique specialty of a small third-tier sect in the north of the kingdom.

But because it was too far away, it had greatly exceeded the limit that the Navarro family and even the Brotherhood of the Black Hand could reach.

After all, this kind of thing can be understood with one's ass. This small sect is a hen that can only lay golden eggs, and there is definitely not a single force that has ideas about them.As a southern force, the Navarro family would have fallen into the siege of those barbaric Yankees if they rushed to the north to grab food.

As for Trin's trip to the north this time, he was originally chasing the necromancer all the way, planning to kill him, and did not deliberately look for the God of Medicine. As a result, after waiting for many days in Pine Town, Tring's men accidentally discovered There is a long queue at the gate of the temple to buy medicine.

It feels like when you are rummaging through boxes and cabinets at home looking for a door key, you accidentally find a ring hidden under the coffee table out of the corner of your eye.

certainly!Tring was not arrogant enough to think that with a dozen of his subordinates, he could block the door of the sect and force the other party to submit obediently.The Navarro family is one of the richest people in Yanwood City, and they consider themselves to be stylish underworld nobles, so Tring is going to buy it with real money.

The magical potions of the God of Medicine Sect are very popular in the south of the kingdom and even in the empire farther away, and there is no market for them. Excellent choice.

Tring's subordinates had already inquired clearly before they came back. The healing medicine "Evelina's Tears" is retailed locally, and goddammit, because the labyrinth is still having a [-]% discount, the price is only one-tenth of that of Yanmu City. One, but each person is limited to one bottle, only for adventurers and mercenaries with guild certificates.

Tring was naturally not satisfied with just buying a dozen or so bottles to go home, so he hoped to meet with the leader of the sect and have a detailed discussion.And after figuring out his purpose, Erwin said in his heart that this is not too difficult.

So under the strong request of Tring, Erwin took him to the temple of the God of Medicine Sect again, and asked to see Lu De as the son of a wealthy merchant in Yanmu City in the south.

However, Trin, who presented himself as a false identity, did not know that as early as the first day he arrived in Pine Town, he had already been targeted by Lude, who had known their movements in advance.Hume, who doesn't need to sleep, watches their every move 24 hours a day, so not long after Tring came out of the hotel, Lude knew that they were going to be delivered to their door.

Like many people who came to the temple for the first time, when Trin first arrived at the temple, he was a little surprised by the simple and almost shabby decoration here.

He thought that although the God of Medicine Sect was small in scale, since it had magical potions as a money-making tool, even if it needed the protection of other major sects to share the benefits, the remaining part should not be unable to build a magnificent and magnificent temple, but It turned out to be such an old house.

So according to his "common sense", Tring guessed that there are two possibilities. One is that Master Luther, who has the title of saint, is a miser like a miser, and he is reluctant to build a new temple.And the other is that the God of Medicine Sect they cooperated with was too domineering, almost snatching away all the profits, leaving only some leftovers to pass them off.

Tring hadn't been to school in the past few days since he came to town, so he didn't know that Lude spent most of his income on other things.

The two sides met in the reception room of the temple. Tring couldn't help being surprised when he saw the too young Lude, and Lude had long been used to similar reactions, so he explained his situation a little bit, and then straightened the conversation Introduced to the topic.

"Master Tlin, as the representative of your chamber of commerce, hopes to establish a business cooperation with my teaching and obtain the sales agent right of the medicine in the southern part of the kingdom?"

"That's exactly what we mean. Our Abalile Chamber of Commerce is one of the most powerful financial groups in the south of the kingdom, and we also have channels with the southern countries. When it comes to personal connections, we call ourselves number two, and no one dares to call it number one. .If your school wants to open up the market in the south, it is definitely the best choice to cooperate with us."

Tring boasted about his family's power with his extravagant self. While listening quietly, Lu De observed the underworld boss in front of him, and analyzed his personality from the perspective of a policeman.Only after figuring this out, can we give him a whole set of work in a targeted manner!

At this time, Shanisi came in with a tray of tea. Tring, who was still talking about it just now, instantly focused his eyes on this beauty who shocked him. The dog's eyes were like a scanner, and they did not miss every detail from head to toe. a part.

Noticing the other party's reaction, Lu De was unmoved on the surface, but added a "lusty" label to this guy in his heart, and felt a little uncomfortable at the same time.

And Tring obviously didn't notice this, and when Shanisi put down the tea and left the reception room, she immediately asked Lude a little impatiently.

"Mr. Priest, do you know if your religion has a spell-breaking service?"

End of this chapter

"Curse breaking service?"

The "curse-resolving" that Tring said is a relatively unfamiliar word to Lude. At first glance, it is easy to think of religious procedures such as demon removal and purification.But looking at the other party's expression, it was obvious that they meant something else.

Seeing that Erwin on the side, as a real local veteran, knew what the word meant, his expression suddenly became awkward, and he coughed softly twice, reminding Tring to pay attention to the words he used in front of Lude.

The so-called unraveling of the curse or the physical unraveling of the curse is essentially a kind of violin transaction under the cloak of religion. Some monasteries will let young nuns or cute monks pick up guests under the guise of helping people break the curse, and provide them for the rich and rich. The powerful Huoben Sect's high-level leaders wantonly played with it.

This is not a common phenomenon, but it is not uncommon.

Moreover, compared with ordinary whores, the status of priests adds extra interest to these nuns, so the price is also much higher. It is a high-end club that only "upper class people" can understand. It is not open to the public, and most ordinary people do not. I know, and I don't dare to say anything if I know it.

The irony is that most of the nuns who came out to pick up the guests were orphans adopted by the monastery since they were young. They grew up in a religious environment that was almost completely isolated from the outside world, and they were very devout to the gods they believed in.The long-term brainwashing education made them not doubt the order of the nanny, and really thought that they were doing good deeds, using their pure bodies to help people break the curse.

But the gods who gained more faith from them turned a blind eye to the deception and suffering they suffered.

certainly!Not all traditional gods are so ruthless. The Guangming Sacred Religion of the Yusanjia explicitly forbids such behaviors. Kaus, the Holy Lord of Guangming, can be said to have the strongest sense of justice among the gods.

Another special case is the God of War Sect. The Heavenly Mad God of War Fei Golai is not a god who respects women, but this arrogant battle madman always believes that beauty is only for the strong, and everything can be obtained by strength.

Therefore, there are nuns who specialize in providing "special services" in the God of War Sect, and they are called "Divine Princesses".Every three years in the capital of the gods and shields of the chief religion, there will be a battle of gods, inviting the world's strongest to participate in the competition.The winning champion will not only get the magic weapon and blessings from the God of War, but will also be invited to the paradise-like Happy Island.

God of War Sect has prepared a whole hundred god girls here, and the champions can enjoy their beautiful bodies at will, but there is a requirement, that is, all the hundred god girls must be pregnant before they can leave Happy Island.

The children born to these god princesses will be raised by the God of War Sect. They will receive martial arts training since childhood, and will join the most elite Zhan Kuang Legion of the God of War Sect when they grow up.

Lude didn't know much about this aspect, so at first he really didn't understand what Tlin meant, but Tlin, who was unforgettable to Shanis at a glance, obviously misunderstood what he meant when he saw that Lude didn't say a word. He directly asked the accompanying men to take out a bag of jingling gold coins, saying that it only took one night.

Speaking of this, even if Lude is a fool, he can figure out what Tring wants to do.Lu Dexin said that if you don't mind playing with Shanisi's "second form", then I can really arrange it for you.

If it wasn't for the next "big show" that required the other party's cooperation, Lu De really wanted to splash the tea in his hand on this dude's face right now, then picked up his fire unicorn, and "respectfully sent" him out.

So Lude didn't get angry, but said with a sullen face in a tone that clearly revealed displeasure.

"Master Tlin, although my teaching is not a famous sect, the goddess teaches us believers to respect and love ourselves. I am not short of money to the extent that I need to abuse my disciples. I don't want to hear what I just said a second time, otherwise I will I can only send guests off."

Hearing that Lude was really angry, Tring realized that he accidentally offended the other party just now.Although he was cursing "fake nobility" in his heart, he still had a very apologetic expression on his face, apologizing to Lu De.

In order to alleviate this awkward atmosphere, Erwin on the side could only stand up and try to change the subject.

"Speaking of which, does Master know anything about divination?"

"Know a little bit, why? Are you interested?"

"It's nothing, it's just that on the way to Pine Town, Master Tring mentioned a lot about divination, so I think you, Master, are well-informed, and you should also know a lot about this aspect."

Seeing that Erwin mentioned divination, and Lude said that he knew a little bit, Trin couldn't help being interested.The reason why he went out this time was because Dick, the necromancer, was lucky enough to get a token from the legendary fortune-teller Merritt. He asked the other party to help him with a divination, and only then did he get the whereabouts of the God-robbing artifact.

Although Trin bought an intermediary afterwards to learn about this matter, the intermediary only knew that the necromancer had obtained the information he wanted from Merritt, but he didn't know the specific content of the divination, which made Trin only act like a follower The same followed behind Dick, but couldn't get ahead of him.

So with the idea of ​​giving it a try, he also asked Lu De.

"Master, what do you think of this? The bag of money just now is the cost of divination. How about showing your hand in front of this junior?"

"Oh! What do you want to divination?"

"Divinate what I'm looking for."

After meeting Trin's eyes for a moment, a mysterious smile suddenly appeared on Lude's face.He looked at Erwin on the side, and asked if he had any copper coins on him, preferably old money, and lent him eleven coins first.

This was the first time Erwin heard that copper coins were used for divination, so he took out eleven coins from his wallet and handed them to Lud.

Lude took the copper coin, asked Tring to hold it with both hands, and then explained while putting it down.

"My divination technique is the female mystic biography. The only equipment I need is an old copper coin. Because copper coins are the most widely circulated and have been in contact with the most people, the copper coins have been psychic over time, and have the ability to know the world. Tlin Master, I will teach you a spell. When I put these eleven copper coins in your hands, you will say them three times, and then I will say another spell, and you will naturally let go of these copper coins. Sprinkle it on the table. Be careful not to drop it on the floor, or you will have to start all over again, do you understand?"

"Understood, what is the spell?"

"The spell is very simple, listen carefully... Thank you Brother Wu Fly (in Cantonese)."

Because he didn't understand the language of the earth, Tring didn't know what the spell meant, but he was taken by Luther's mysterious gesture. After Luther put the copper coin in his hand, he imitated it very seriously. Pronunciation read "Thank you Brother Wufly" three times.

And when he finished reading, Lu De also pretended to pinch his hand, and then took advantage of the opportunity to say the characteristic swearing that he had long wanted to burst out in front of this black second generation.

"Duck wash and pull tired (eat shit you)!"

End of this chapter

The so-called divination, Lu De is not good at all, but this does not prevent him from using his superb acting skills to bluff Trin!

After Lude's "spell" was finished, Tring threw eleven copper coins on the cashmere pad spread out on the table.Then Lu De pretended to stare at the scattered copper coins, first with his left hand, he swipe across all the coins with heads up, and then with his right hand, he swipe the coins with tails up.

Tring couldn't understand Ludd's routine, because the divination technique in this world does not have fixed rituals, there are crystal balls, skulls and even compasses, and Ludd's family is not the only one who uses coins as props.

It's just that there are good and bad in this business. Nine out of ten fortune tellers are liars. There are real bosses, but most of these strange people are legendary figures, and they are not easily seen.

However, after all, Lude is a well-known priest in the north of the kingdom, and he also bears the title of "saint". This series of aura blessings naturally make his words more credible.

After gesturing at a pile of coins for a long time, Lu De's expression became more and more solemn, and he didn't know what he could see from it.However, just when Tring was about to get impatient, Lu De suddenly raised his head and questioned Tring in a reproachful tone.

"You're looking for an artifact! Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"I……"

It was revealed by Lude that the thing he was looking for was an artifact, and Trin was stunned on the spot.And Lude reached out his hand to turn over the wool pad, covered all the copper coins, then picked up the teacup with a slightly trembling hand and took a sip. He lay back on the soft chair, closed his eyes and kneaded his temples, showing a very exhausted expression. look.

"Master, are you...are you alright?"

"It's okay? How could it be okay? The artifact is the creation of the gods, and divination is a taboo method that violates the harmony of heaven. It is a taboo for mortals to spy on the things of the gods with taboos. If the old man hadn't reacted quickly and stopped in time, I'm afraid it will be wrong now I have been condemned by God! You young man is immoral. This old man is 69 this year. I almost killed you! If you said earlier that the thing you are looking for is an artifact, I will use another set of divination that is more suitable .”

With a seventeen or eighteen-year-old face, Lude babbled like an old man and said that he had fallen behind Trin for a full 5 minutes, which made Trin very depressed, but he could only obediently dare not answer back.Because the scene just now made him completely believe in his heart that Lude is very likely to be a legendary fortune-teller whose skills are not inferior to "Ms. Tongtian" Merritt.

Tring is indeed an arrogant and accustomed dude, but he still feels a bit forced in his heart. He knows that there are people out there in this world, and there are some real bosses, not to mention that Tring can't afford to provoke him. .
