From Prisoner to Si Chen

Time flies, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

For more than a month, Gilan lived in seclusion. Apart from daily practice, I only go out occasionally.

He would take the time to go to South Muse, waiting for an opportunity to arrest the bootlegger, and then use the details of the whole process as first-hand information to inform the female reporter Lebby and ask her to write a column report.

By the way, I will also go to the Notre Dame Convent on St. Maud Street to see Miss Sparrow. She seemed to be increasingly adapting to monastic life, and informed Gillan about her conversion and joining the Order of Holy Sisters.

Currently, she is studying occult knowledge with Dean Padmel, as well as some rituals and spells that need to be kept secret.

Jilan saw that her gnosis was steadily increasing and her personality gradually returned to the lively and cheerful character she had been in Brak City. He was truly happy for her.

In addition, he will also meet with Miss Didier to help her friends "exorcise demons" and eliminate mysterious influences, and receive a certain amount of commission remuneration.

Guillen spent most of the money he earned buying mysterious ingredients, which he then refined into alchemical potions in his rental apartment.

I didn't make much money. Excluding the loss of refining failure, I could only make back the eight or nine "wick potions" I consumed during this period.

The biggest gain is the proficiency in refining "green gunpowder" and "wick potion".

Of course, in order to pursue higher refining efficiency, Gillan also tried to use mysterious points to add points to "alchemy". However, the remaining 10 points of energy were all used up, and only a small amount of proficiency was improved.

It can be seen that "alchemy" is too profound. If you want to master it, the number of mysterious points required will be quite large.

As for Jilan's own cultivation progress, it can be said to be a rapid progress.

His current gnosis has already exceeded the average level of a second-level mystic. The spiritual color is close to deep red, with a rich scarlet light inside. It will probably only take a few days to completely complete the secondary dyeing.

And he deeply played the role of an agent and practiced the process of "actor" and "secret biography", which was also very effective.

In addition to Nan Muse being frightened by his name, reports by gold medal reporter Rebbie Lund would appear in newspapers every once in a while. Even if the "guiding power" of feedback has been slightly reduced, it remains stable.

Jilan could already "see" a large expanse of white light deep in her soul. The second-level "actor" essence seems to be within reach.

But there was only one thing that made him confused.

It was the expected revenge that never came.

Whether it is the "Heavenly Evil Order" represented by Earl Farhan's family or the July Baptist Church infiltrated by the "Golden Bough of Dawn", there is no movement at all.

Even "Miss Rabbit" Jenna Claire seemed to have disappeared from the world, and there was no trace of her.

Everything is like the calm before the storm.

Gillan buried this doubt in her heart and focused on herself. Keep working hard to practice, improve your strength, and strive to climb to level 2 as soon as possible.

Because he clearly knows that only if he is strong enough can he ignore all threats and troubles from the outside.

Early in the morning on September 19th.

Ji Lan practiced cross-legged in the master bedroom as usual.

Before that, he also took stock of his potions and financial situation.

3.5 bottles of green gunpowder.

26 wick potions.

Funds 2245 Caesar.

This is what he has achieved in more than a month. Although the "family wealth" is not huge, it is enough to support him for a long time.

Two hours passed unknowingly. After finishing today's practice, Jilan went to the bathroom to wash up and have breakfast as usual.

When I returned to the master bedroom again, it was already early nine o'clock.

Buzz.

Buzz.

Just at this time, the "Alchemy Hotline" placed on the bedside table suddenly vibrated, and rounds of golden alchemy array patterns emitted from the inside.

Ji Lan walked over quickly, picked up the "hot line" and put it to his ear.

"Hello."

"Hey, Blood Owl." White Sage's magnetic voice came through the microphone, with a smile in his tone. "We have some clues about the real film."

"The official member who wants to sell the film said it can be cheaper, but she needs you to do her a small favor."

"What's the deal?" Jilan raised an eyebrow.

"She needs you for a viewing on the last day of the month."

White Sage relayed.

"Why is this?" Jilan was a little confused.

"How can you study the 'Secret History' if you don't even know this?"

The White Sage sighed.

But he was silent for a few seconds and then explained:

"The first day of every month is 'Montage Day'. When watching a movie on this day, no matter what real film it is, the playback content will be garbled, and there will be a certain probability of Easter eggs or deliberately hidden clips appearing."

"The last day is the 'Long Shot Day'. Watching movies on this day can integrate the series of movies and play out their complete plot...while inheriting all the impact caused by the moviegoer from the first act to facilitate Promote the final outcome.”

'Montage, long shot...'

Gillan looked surprised.

He had no idea that the real film had special playback effects during these two days.

“So these two days are ‘movie viewing days’ that all those who study the ‘secret history’ of film will not miss.”

The White Sage continued.

"But this involves a problem, and that is the 'public release effect'. Watching movies in sub-bands at similar time periods will cause moviegoers from different regions to watch the same movie, which is very likely to cause conflicts."

"Therefore, some mysterious forces use these two days to hunt down moviegoers, cover up the truth of the secret history, or simply kill people to seize treasures... The Imperial Purification Department often does this kind of thing."

"So, the official member needs me to watch "Old Peel # 2" on the 'long shot day' in order to take advantage of the 'release effect' to help her kill people?"

Ji Lan said thoughtfully.

"..."

The White Sage seemed to be unable to understand his brain circuit, and fell into a brief silence again.

"That's not the case." He coughed. "Your murderous intention is too much, blood owl."

"The official member's name is 'Crow', you can call her Ms. Crow. She wants to ask for your help. After entering the film, she will meet up with a team called 'Recording Meeting', and then during the movie viewing process, she will do her best to the team. Take care of them to prevent them from being hunted by other forces."

'Recording meeting, Ms. Crow...'

Ji Lan raised his eyebrows.

He was quite touched when he heard about this familiar secret society.

Through the code name "Crow" and the fact that the other party wanted him to help the "recording meeting" viewing team in the film, Gillan easily determined the identity of this woman.

In addition to being a formal member of "Midnight Rose", she is probably also a member of the "Recording Club", and is very likely to be a high-level person.

"I have a question." Gillan said into the phone. "Why don't Ms. Crow watch the movie herself and do this?"

"She has something going on that she can't get away from."

White Sage explained patiently.

"Furthermore, the real film has a strong repelling effect on the mysterious person above Kuze. The higher the original level, the stronger the repulsion... Even if she watches the film in person, she will be forced to leave soon, which is meaningless."

"That's it, I know."

Ji Lan's eyes were filled with thought.

"I suggest you do her this favor, Blood Owl."

Saying that, Sage Bai added:

"If you take the path of February's 'director' in the future, it is not a bad thing to have a good relationship with her... because Ms. Crow happens to be a Kusei practitioner of the Sword Path of the Furnace and a level 4 'Makeup Artist'. When the time comes, If you are confused about finding the way, you can still ask for advice.”
