Lord of the Mysteries 2: Circle of Inevitability

Mummy ashes... Lumian instantly thought of the "Highland Secret Medicine" store in Lapus City.

The term "mummy" originated from the former Highland Kingdom and has a special ancient Highland language vocabulary.

Emperor Russell translated it as "mummy".

In other words, the most authentic and oldest mummies are in the Xingxing Plateau, which is also the largest "producing area" of mummy ashes.

The more Franka talked, the more excited she became: "Why do you think the men in Trier love things that can strengthen their abilities so much? They even dare to eat things like mummy ashes! So people who really need them can't buy them. For real!”

"Many women in Trier also love it and hope that their husbands and lovers can perform better in bed." Lumian had read relevant reports and asked Franka curiously, "Is it really useful?"

Franka sneered: "The powder made from corpses made by special techniques, apart from causing illness, I can't think of any other effect. Well, the role in the field of occultism is another matter.

"Think about it, Trier is full of fake mummy ashes now, don't they eat them happily and can't tell the real ones from the fake ones?

"There are many herbs with similar effects, but once the name of mummy ashes is added, the price can increase several times. Who wouldn't do this?

"Don't overestimate the conscience of those businessmen. They grind the bones of dead mice into powder, add herbs, and sell them as mummy ashes. I have heard people complain at many occult gatherings.

"I just, uh, I didn't have extraordinary powers before, and when I was still working hard, I saw the owner of the cafe using chicory to make fake coffee. Later, he was reluctant to even use chicory, and collected coffee grounds, animal bile, and even bricks ash and coal ash instead. Believe me, as long as you have been to the chefs of some restaurants and cafes, you will want to use the old

The board was hanged on the gallows, and those snail shells were used again and again, constantly being picked back from the trash, stuffed with materials, and served to new customers..."

Franka rambled a lot, venting her frustrations over the obstacles that counterfeit and shoddy products had caused to her extraordinary career.

Dissatisfied with life.

After she finished speaking, Lumian asked with certainty: "Have you, the witch, finished digesting the magic potion?"

"That was all a long time ago. During this period, have you ever seen me play a witch?" Franka's mood returned to normal and she replied a little proudly.

Lumian changed the topic thoughtfully:

"You seem to look down on the Rose School of Thought for causing terrorist incidents in the Northern Continent, and even ridiculed them for hindering the people of the Southern Continent from resisting colonization? I don't quite understand your logic. Shouldn't you resist and retaliate when you are bullied?"

"Yeah, if you're just seeking the pleasure of revenge and having fun, there's absolutely nothing wrong with doing this." Franka walked to the window of Lumian's bedroom and looked at the docks and yards blocked by buildings, her eyes unfocused. He said, "But if you want to lead the people of the Southern Continent to drive out the colonists, such behavior will only have the opposite effect.

A philosopher in my hometown once said that a king should not send troops casually out of anger. Resisting colonization is such a serious and difficult matter, and it should not be a trash can for venting emotions. "

Seeing that Lumian was still confused, Franka pointed out the window:

"There are many workers there, many coolies. They work hard every day and sleep in rooms full of bed bugs. It is very difficult just to keep their own family alive. Are they colonists? Have they obtained benefits from the colony? Yes. , their jobs may be brought about by colonial trade, but without the colonies and entering normal trade, will they be unemployed? I don't think so. The most likely thing is that they still have such a job that can barely support themselves. And the bosses lose excess profits.

“They have their own demands and a tendency to change the current society. They often join the various marches and protests of Trier citizens and have strong dissatisfaction with the government.

“There are many similar people in Trier, and some of them even sympathize with the colonized southerners for various reasons.

"A philosopher Wang from my hometown once said that when we do things, we must clearly distinguish who are our friends and who are our enemies. The Rose School's creation of various terrorist incidents will only separate those who sympathize with the colonized and those who are also resisting. People in the government push themselves against each other and make themselves the object of hatred for the rulers to bridge internal conflicts. This is harmful to the cause of the people of the Southern Continent to resist colonization.

"The philosopher king even forbade his intelligence personnel from carrying out assassinations and revenge, let alone causing terrorist incidents."

Franka came back to her senses and added with bright eyes:

"As long as you can find more friends, isolate your enemies as much as possible, and inspire that little bit of fire, no matter how small or sporadic the flame is, it can eventually ignite the entire wilderness!"

Who are our friends and who are our enemies... Find allies and isolate enemies... No matter how small and sporadic the flame is, it can ignite the entire wilderness... No matter how small and no matter how sporadic the flame is, it can ignite the entire wilderness... Lumi An felt as if she was shocked and her horizons were suddenly opened, and she chewed over and over what Franka said.

Especially the last sentence gave him a new understanding of "arsonist", and his first acting rule was about to come out.

After more than ten seconds, Lumian nodded solemnly: "I agree with you now. The Rose School's act of creating terrorist incidents is a very stupid act. It is a decision made after the brain is filled with desire, uh, as the mother tree of desire." Believers, this is normal."

Franka pouted her lips:

"If the "Rose School" focuses on assassinating colonial generals, congressmen, and high-ranking government officials, and focusing on destroying battleships, arms warehouses, and arsenals, I will not specifically laugh at them, but they will want to engage in blood sacrifices every once in a while.

I just want to kill a large number of people regardless of their identity. I don't want to become a sacrifice for these lunatics one day. "

"This is a typical case of pushing sympathizers to the opposite side." Lumian commented pertinently.

Franka said again in a disdainful tone:

"These madmen not only conduct blood sacrifices in the countries of the Northern Continent, but also in the Southern Continent. They do it where they can exert influence, often turning villages into no man's land. I think the people of the Southern Continent have more than just The mountain of colonists, and the Rose School'."

Lumian nodded slightly and said smoothly:

"I was taken around the Star Plateau by that lady just now and met a businessman selling mummies. Do you want me to apply to go there again and help you get some real mummy ashes?"

That lady... Franka suddenly realized it and did not ask any questions. She thought for a while and said: "No need for the time being. There are just a lot of fakes in Trier. It doesn't mean there are no real ones. Let's try to find them first. If it doesn't work, we can go to the Southern Continent again." .”

"But I hope you can advance to Sequence 6 within a week and become the Witch of Joy." Lumian said frankly.

"Huh?" Franka was confused.

Who is going to be promoted?

Lumian did not hide anything and said directly:

"A certain prophet told me, www.youxs.org, that I want to find him and catch him, but this requires the help of more friends. The boss has promised to help me find someone. The stronger you are, www.youxs. org."

"You kid, you can apply what you have learned now." Franka said with a smile, "You really don't treat me as an outsider now, and you don't even ask me if I agree to help before you ask for help."

"Isn't that just asking?" Lumian responded with a smile.

Franka pondered for a moment and said:

"Wait a few more days. If you haven't bought the real mummy ashes, go to the Southern Continent to look for it. Didn't I tell you? If you can, try not to trouble the Major Arcana cards. .”

"Okay." Lumian actually has a similar point of view, but he will not miss every opportunity to make money. Otherwise, he will directly ask the "magician" www.youxs.org.

Subordinates who do not have the ability to handle problems independently and only know that subordinates who trouble their boss will be given up sooner or later!

Moreover, the internal principle of the Tarot Society is "equivalent exchange". What price should be paid if a demigod-level Major Arcana card holder is asked to help?

After chatting for a while, Franka, who was about to leave, glanced at the window and suddenly said:

"www.youxs.org, we have made preparations, but you cannot be careless and place your hopes entirely on him. The Rose School is a very ancient secret organization and must have various abilities."

Why did you suddenly say this... Lumian was stunned for a moment and said cooperatively:

"The boss is at least a conspirator. He has dug countless traps secretly, waiting for people from the Rose School of Thought to come."

On this topic, the two of them left the bedroom and entered the hallway while communicating.

Until then, Franka lowered her voice and said:

"I just felt something strange about the glass of your window. I suspect there is a resentful spirit."

The "Grudge" of the "Rose School"? Franka discovered something abnormal through the "Witch"'s control of the mirror? Lumian's spirit tensed up instantly, and he nodded lightly as if he were talking about an extremely ordinary person. topic of.

He watched Franka turn into the cafe, leave the Breeze Ballroom, then walk out of the aisle, sit in the same seat as usual, and drink the fragrant coffee.

After a full hour, Lumian relaxed a little and felt that the "resentful spirit" had left, www.youxs.org.

Lumian spent the next few days in this rather suspicious state. From time to time, he felt that there were eyes looking at him in the glass window of the room or in the bathroom mirror, but nothing happened.

Finally, he waited until the day when Mr. K promised to give him a reward.

While going down the stairs of the Golden Rooster Hotel, Lumian met a strange woman.

She was wearing a lake blue dress, her brown hair was naturally disheveled, her brown eyes had a unique sense of erraticness, she had an upper-middle appearance, plump cheeks, and a detached temperament.

When Lumian passed the front desk, he casually asked Mrs. Fells: "Is that lady just now a new tenant?"

The fat Mrs. Fells showed a flattering smile:

"No, it's Miss Safaree who lives in room 309. She went to a seaside town with a painter to work as a mannequin. She just came back today.

"It's so enviable. Her job allows her to go to the beach for vacation."

That mannequin? Lumian nodded, walked out of the Golden Rooster Hotel, and took a public carriage to the boulevard area.
