Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

Under Thomas's strong protest, both Alexander and Aaron gave up the idea of ​​inviting Esther to dine with everyone on the boat.

Mary didn't have any objections when she heard this. She just said "I can help her deliver the food" and then went to the kitchen to check today's dinner menu.

Thomas looked at Mary's back as she walked out of the door, and frowned even more tightly: "She was also affected?"

Mary is not such a warm-hearted and attentive character. With her strong self-esteem and arrogance, she should go directly to the kitchen and ask others to deliver food. It is impossible for her to go by herself.

Aaron smiled very maliciously: "Hey, some existences are like this. Even you will definitely be affected if you stay with Miss Hamel for a long time..."

Alexander raised the glasses on the bridge of his nose: "Charm? Eloquence? Or is it because she can suppress the bone sword and pollution and show some kind of divine grace?"

"Of course it's because of the last point, but I can't explain it to you in words."

Thomas spat in annoyance: "It's really annoying!"

"I have always thought it was a pity that you did not choose the path of the 'Church of the God of Storms', my dear first mate."

Thomas glared at Aaron and strode out of the captain's cabin.

——

When Mary delivered dinner, Esther was considering writing a letter to Klein. Since she was interrupted, she could only postpone the matter.

Esther had no objection to the simple dinner on the ship, and was even surprised that the bread contained not only sausage slices but also fried eggs: "I heard that the food on a pirate ship would be very monotonous when sailing, but I didn't expect that there would be eggs."

Mary shrugged: "Mr. Alexander raises two very weird chickens, and they only need to feed the fish. The most troublesome thing about the regular conditions is fresh water, but with Mr. Alexander and Thomas here, this is nothing to us."

She pointed to the wine bottle on Esther's table: "But we still have to save. You can only drink the remaining half of the bottle of Bai Danxia as water."

Esther nodded, once again feeling the practicality of the "craftsman" ability. As long as they have enough time and preparation, they can adapt well to any environment. She didn't know much about Toma's ability, but according to Mary's statement and the previous action of taking out the scroll, maybe Toma is a certain sequence who is good at spells?

However, Mary did not leave. Instead, she stayed at the door with a troubled expression on her face: "So, I want to ask you something."

Esther asked Bai Danxia to swallow the bread in her mouth: "You tell me. For the sake of helping me get dinner, I will tell you what I can."

Mary rolled her eyes, obviously disdainful of such a statement: "You are not someone who cares about such things at all. I can see that you are on guard against us."

"Just as you are guarding against me, of course I will also be nervous. So what do you want to ask?" Esther replied with a smile. Although the words she said were not very polite, Mary could hear her joking tone.

"Are you still holding the bead I threw at you before?"

Hearing Mary's affirmative tone, Esther did not fool around and took out the brightly colored red bead from the compartment of her bag. A few light spots floated away from above and got back into Esther's hair, before Esther threw the beads towards Mary:

"Don't casually establish occult connections with others, Miss Mary, you will be caught by others in turn. This ability can be used to set traps for the enemy in battle. If others notice the opportunity, you will be unlucky. "

Mary pinched the beads in her hand and looked at them for two seconds, then raised her lips in embarrassment: "No, you are special. I have never seen anyone who can influence me in the opposite direction."

"I didn't try to influence you. I can't control this myself." Esther's face was rarely expressionless and very cold. "Just like Aaron being affected too much, it will only make you more vigilant. They’ll think I’m a big trouble.”

"Because we are responsible for the Clover." Mary's eyes were firm.

Esther lowered her head and continued to nibble on the crispy toasted bread: "Can I take the tray back to the kitchen by myself, or do you want to watch me finish it?"

"Do you know where the kitchen is? Have you explored the structure of the Clover?"

Esther stared at Mary in confusion: "I can ask others."

Mary choked, she was taking it for granted.

——

At night, the crimson moonlight outside the window fell on the sea, and the sea was calm.

After Alexander sent King Louis to the room, Esther's concerns were settled. Now she had enough funds to pay Klein's messenger.

One gold coin at a time, this messenger is really not cheap.

After asking the "craftsman" second mate if he had any pen and paper, and receiving his free supply, Esther sat back down at the small wooden table.

After sensing that the paper and pen had not done anything, Esther spread the light spots into the room. To her surprise, a light green light curtain instantly rose, wrapping the entire room.

Esther chuckled: "Hey, you are so considerate."

I just hope there won't be anything unusual on Aaron's side, otherwise they might be alerted again.

The dim light of the horse lantern illuminated the room, and Esther roughly wrote down the rough experience of boarding the "Clover", happily describing her surprise when she saw the ship's hull floating. When it comes to several people on the ship, her words are much simpler, often just referring to them as "captain" or "first mate" or "second mate".

Esther also talked about her acquisition of strange weapons, mentioned the necklace that could open passages to the spiritual world and make people hear murmurs, and wrote down the corresponding doubts:

"Behind this fleet should be related to an organization originating from Intis. They are used to communicating in Intis language, but the three extraordinary people in charge of the fleet and the 'Yanzhu' are equally proficient in Lu. Enyu's performance showed that they showed knowledge and literacy that was much higher than that of ordinary pirates, and they were not real pirates.

"They seem to be keen on searching for Quaternary Antiquities. They entrusted me to clean up the remaining contamination on the Quaternary relics. This is also the first time I know that 'stealers' can do such a thing. This ship is relatively As far as pirates are concerned, it is more likely that it is an 'archaeological fleet', searching for something on the sea under the orders of that organization.

"But you also know the ability of the 'Artisan'. The hidden combat power of this ship should be far beyond the surface. It is not convenient for me to reveal too much about their privacy. They have no ill intentions towards me. In fact, this 'Ghost Ship' even likes I and they may be more worried about this. When we meet again, I will show you my 'new harvest', and you may be shocked."

At the end of the letter, Esther warned Klein again not to take too many risks. If there was anything he wanted to do, he could "invite" Daniz to help.

Of course, for Danitz, he was simply intimidated by "Gehrman".

After folding the written letter paper, Esther hesitated.

How about sending it tomorrow? It seems too pretentious to bombard you with text messages just after saying goodbye today...

But after a moment, she made up her mind, dug out the spare candles in the room, and began to arrange the summoning ceremony.

Esther was really curious about what Klein's messenger looked like. She had seen the huge skeleton before, so she was looking forward to the spiritual creature that would be summoned next.

Soon, Esther set up a simple altar. After dripping essential oil into the candlelight, she stood in front of the table, recalled Klein's past, and whispered in giant language:

"I! I call in my name:

"The spirit that wanders in the illusion, the friendly creature that can be driven, belongs exclusively to Gehrman Sparrow's messenger."

The candle flames flickered, and a strange gust of wind arose in the room.

Esther sensed that a crack had been opened between the spiritual world and reality, and there was an inexplicable gravitational force coming from that crack, causing her to subconsciously take two steps back, moving further away.

A head of blond hair like satin came out, with red eyes that looked slightly evil, and a bright face that surprised Esther. She originally thought that what appeared would be a very scary monster, but she didn't expect that it would be such a beautiful lady. .

But the next second, Esther retracted this idea.

There was only a break below the head, and a hand grasping the tail of the hair emerged from behind. Not long after, this elegant lady in a long black dress, carrying four heads, stood in front of Esther.

The neck of the body was also broken.

Looking at it this way, the four heads really can't be accommodated. No wonder she has to carry them... Is this more fair?

Esther and the four heads looked at each other, and both sides fell into a brief silence.

In the end, it was Esther who tried hard to break the silence: "I, you, you are Gehrman Sparrow's messenger, right?"

The four heads shook twice at the same time and nodded.

Esther handed over a gold Louis and the letter. The lady held the gold coin and the letter in her two heads respectively. She looked at Esther again and saw that she had nothing to say, then turned around and re-entered the gap in the spirit world. .

After the gap closed, Esther breathed a sigh of relief and sat back in the chair.

Why is Klein’s messenger a spiritual creature of this level? ?

That lady even touched Esther's "spiritual intuition" in a rare way! Although it was not as threatening as meeting "Amon", except when facing "Zoya"'s old acquaintances, Esther felt a sense of wary scrutiny in her mind for the first time.

What is the origin of Klein's messenger? Why would such a powerful spiritual creature be willing to be a messenger? But since she, no, she has become Klein's messenger, she should have signed a contract and will not harm Klein.

This should be a good thing for him.

Esther looked at the candles on the table that had not yet been extinguished, and recalled the movements of the four heads nodding together. She felt very uncomfortable, and she didn't know if the discomfort caused by the gap in the spiritual world still remained.

If it weren't for the gorgeous appearance that alleviated the fear of separation of the head and body, the lady would only look more frightening.

Esther really didn't want her messenger that much.

If the summoned thing is difficult for "Zoya" to suppress, then she probably won't even have a chance to worry about her situation.
