Lord of the Mysteries 2: Circle of Inevitability

Franka finished the magic mirror divination, looked at Jian Na's answer just now, and began to interpret: "Jian Na, normally speaking, it means that there is danger, but it is within the range we can bear. If you be careful, it should be fine. question."

Jian Na was slightly surprised and said: "I thought the divination result would be very clear, but who knows, it only takes one sentence to correspond to such a long series of interpretations. It's very clear."

Franka smiled and emphasized: "If you go to the divination club in Memorial Hall and find those amateur players, they will be more tolerant, so that they can make interpretations that are beneficial to you after getting the results. Well, didn't you find it before? Has anyone done divination?"

Jian Na nodded calmly, a divination would cost a lot of money.

Franka rolled her eyes slightly and said as if she was thinking: "You can subscribe to one of these magazines: "Psychic", "Lotus", "Utopia", and "The Veil of Secrets". Although in terms of specific applications, They all have quite a few problems and errors, but they still teach quite well about a lot of basic knowledge about occultism.”

"Ah, yes, Charles often buys these magazines. You can go, uh, I will borrow them for you."

"Okay." Jenna had only heard of those occult magazines before, but had never bought one.

After obtaining fairly good divination results, the two people who had inspected the route and environment during the day quickly arrived at the deep valley under the cover of night.

At the entrance of the quarry, the forty-year-old janitor was huddled in a hut naturally formed by the rock, with his back against the mountain wall, covered with a dirty, old and thin felt cloth, his head tilted, sleeping soundly.

From the dark shadow on his side, a slender and smooth palm suddenly stretched out and covered his mouth with a white handkerchief.

The gatekeeper did not struggle, and went from deep sleep to coma in just a few seconds. Franka, wearing a black hood, stepped out of the shadows and exclaimed: "The effect of the drug from the Blessed Society is really good, it saved me the trouble." A lot of things.”

For this operation, she specifically asked Lumian to borrow the bottle of poison from Rentas.

"Isn't it better to just knock him out?" Jian Na said she couldn't understand.

"It's not impossible." Franka explained casually: "But that will leave traces, and you can't disguise him well as he is still sleeping. And this mission involves many bounty hunters and private detectives. , we should not be the only ones eyeing this quarry. If there is a better way, it is better to be careful when handling the details than to leave hidden dangers."

Jenna, who has lived in the botanical garden and market area for many years, probably understood what Franka meant, and while thinking about it, she asked: "Are you worried that in the dead of night, those bounty hunters and private detectives will find us and enter the quarry first? Will you have bad thoughts afterward?"

Franka nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, many bounty hunters and private detectives will seamlessly switch to robbers, robbers, and murderers depending on the time, environment, and surrounding circumstances."

"They all take risks to make money, not to safeguard justice. Since there are no clues for this task for the time being, and the current environment is suitable, it is in line with their network to rob their colleagues and kill them. Anyway, there is no one else here. Of course, With our strength, we don’t need to be afraid of those bounty hunters and private detectives, but what if we make similar mistakes in other matters or more dangerous situations? Therefore, we must form a habit from the beginning."

What Franka didn't say was that as a woman, she would most likely suffer more.

Jenna nodded slowly, agreeing with this reason. She had seen criminals who killed an old man living alone for 5 ferkin.

Franka then smiled and joked: "You want me to knock him out directly, do you want to take revenge on him for asking you this morning if you want to take over the business?"

"Fuck, am I such a stingy person?" Jenna couldn't help but swear.

Whether it was the years when she was helping her mother with chores or the time when she was working as an underground singer in the market area, she was asked so many times whether she wanted to take business from street girls that she became numb and a little angry, but not much.

In order to prove her generosity, Jian Na breathed out and said: "If you use that kind of drug to deal with others, it will remind me of what happened to me."

She was also fainted and almost became a missing victim, but luckily she met Lumian.

Franka hummed: "I can understand your feelings, but since you have embarked on the path of God and plan to become stronger, after that, you will inevitably have to use various means to deal with the enemy. You can't just be a little repelled in your heart. Just give up, the better option.”

Janna knew that Franka was right, but she still couldn't help but ask: "Can't an extraordinary person live an ordinary and quiet life without being involved in all kinds of disputes and battles while protecting his family and friends? ?”

"In the past, it might have been possible, but now it's getting harder and harder until it's impossible." Franka sighed.

Jian Na was silent for a moment and said: "In the future, in the long future, will it be possible to be realistic?"

Franka glanced at the sleeping gatekeeper and said: "The big shot told me that a similar life has to wait until the end of the fifth era and the beginning of the sixth era. If there is still a sixth era, endure the sixth era."

Jian Na was lost in thought about this. Suddenly, she laughed at herself and said: "Actually, I also know that kind of life. It's just a fantasy. It's impossible to realize. At least, for me, it's impossible to realize. With extraordinary abilities, I can complete it again. After the assassination, if I encounter unfair things and see my family and friends become unfortunate, I will definitely want to use my extraordinary ability to do something to solve problems that cannot be solved by the law and the police."

"That's right." Franka nodded lightly.

She was able to digest the Assassin and Instigator potions not just by dressing up like this, nor by just helping her friends by instigating them.

The two didn't talk any more. Franka bent down and picked up the bunch of brass keys from the doorman. It was just a door. Why were there so many keys? From his home? Franka cooed as she left the hut.

He walked to the entrance of the deep valley quarry and tried out the keys one by one.

At the end of the trial, she said to herself in surprise and doubt that it was wrong.

None of them right? Jenna never expected that there would be such a possibility. No key could open the entrance to the deep valley quarry, so what kind of door would it be?

Franka was half teaching, half thinking: "Maybe this bunch of keys is a jibe, and the real key is hidden somewhere else."

She then said to Janna: "You search the surrounding area, and I'll take a look at the gatekeeper."

Jenna had no objection. Relying on her dark vision, she started from the hut and gradually searched the nearby grass and rock peaks.

Franca squatted next to the janitor again and groped the other person's body from top to bottom.

When she reached her crotch, she bent her fingers, flicked them hard, and sneered and whispered: "Jiana is not stingy, I am stingy."

After the search, the two met at the heavy wooden door and shook their heads at the same time, indicating that they had gained nothing.

Franka clicked her tongue and said: "There is indeed something wrong with this quarry. That guy is really the gatekeeper. He is only responsible for guarding the door and has no ability to open the door."

"Do you still want to go in?" Jenna asked hesitantly, "I'll try again."

Franka stretched her right hand towards the copper lock inlaid on the heavy wooden door. Dense white frost emerged from her palm and poured into the keyhole, filling it up. The white frost continued to accumulate and overlap, eventually turning into It became solid ice.

Franka used her power to pull out the ice cube and got a transparent key. What else could happen?

Jenna looked surprised and yearning.

Sensing her gaze, Franka said slightly proudly: "I have a friend, I really have a friend who is very good at picking locks. We have discussed how to use the witch's ability to pick locks."

After making the ice cube more solid, Franka reinserted it into the keyhole and twisted it gently.

The heavy wooden door opened at Katcha's voice, and Franka took back the ice key and let it melt away, erasing all traces.

Before entering the deep valley quarry, the witch hung the bunch of brass keys back on the gatekeeper's waist and adjusted his posture to make him look more like he was sleeping.

After doing all this, Franka took out the money bag full of coins and took out a thick iron-colored ring covered with tiny spikes.

"Sun, this is the punishment ring I mentioned before. You are here to wear it today! I have already told you how to use it and what the taboos are. The only thing you need to remember is that you cannot use it more than three times in an hour. After the operation is over, take it out immediately and put it back into this coin bag."

"Okay." Jenna stretched out her left hand and let Franka put the iron-colored ring on her middle finger through skin-to-skin contact.

Franka was inexplicably happy, pulled up her hood, pushed open the wooden door, and walked into the deep valley quarry. After Jenna followed in, she closed the wooden door with her backhand and kept it locked.

In this way, it is almost impossible to detect from the outside world that someone has entered this quarry.

Franka and Janna are both assassins with dark vision. Although they did not bring a carbide lamp, they could still easily see the scene behind the door: it was a very dilapidated tunnel with a lot of moss growing around it, and the stone wall above had vertical and horizontal lines. There are intertwined cracks, and a piece seems to fall off at any time.

Not far along the tunnel, there is a hollow that is not fundamentally different from those underground.

Jenna and Franka searched carefully for nearly thirty minutes, looking through the entire collapsed area, but did not find any suspicious details.

"I feel like there's a big problem here now." Franka whispered after returning to the position near the tunnel.

The less abnormal it is, the more strange it seems that the gatekeeper doesn't have the door key.

Janna thought thoughtfully and said, "Maybe I'm just afraid that someone will break into this place and the mine collapses, so I might as well take away the key. The gatekeeper's duty is only to intercept, not to open the door."

Franka was about to say something when she suddenly heard Katcha's voice. It was the sound of the gate of the deep valley quarry being opened. Franka and Jenna looked at each other and immediately hid in the tunnel not far from the exit of the tunnel. hidden place.

The quarry door slowly opened, and the light of the carbide dyed a little blue shone in, dispelling the darkness in the tunnel.

Franka and Janna peeked secretly and saw a man in a gray robe. Around the man's waist was a white apron that ancient stonemasons often wore. The hood was hung behind his neck without wearing it.

This is the standard dress of ascetics or monks of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery.

The monk was holding a glowing carbide lamp. He had short dark hair and a large number of iron-gray gears, screws and springs inlaid around his left eye, which together supported an emerald green crystal prosthetic eye.
