Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

Backlund, Hilton Avenue.

As Audis was escaping outside the villa, he saw a figure in the darkness some distance away.

With just one look, Audis could confirm that it was a Sequence 5, probably on guard duty outside.

According to the habits of extraordinary organizations, the real big shots certainly wouldn't do things like tailing, so every action requires a group of subordinates.

Like staring at a big shot like the "Mysterious Queen", at least one Sequence 5 is needed.

Audis hesitated for less than a second before simply leaving the shadows not far from the other party.

Today, the "Moses Ascetics" not only dispatched demigods, but also angels, so escaping is the priority.

Just then, a soul-shaking force suddenly appeared in the direction of the villa, causing the shadow-formed Audis to tremble involuntarily, as if the most terrifying thing was chasing him from behind.

He took a deep breath, steadied his mind, and continued to flee in the trembling.

At this moment, a group of "star sand" appeared in the hand of the Sequence 5 hidden in the darkness, and he quickly fled here using "Flight".

Coincidentally, the other party's escape route overlapped with Audis's.

Or rather, in this area, the route Audis chose was the best escape route, so such an overlap occurred.

Audis thought to himself: Don't blame me for this!

However, he didn't act immediately, but fled another distance, entered an alley, and after the trembling feeling was no longer so obvious, he suddenly approached the "Astrologer": "Death!"

Although the "Astrologer" who was running for his life felt like there was a pair of eyes staring at him, the "Pale Death" gave him tremendous mental pressure, making him think it was an illusion, so all his thoughts were on escaping just now.

At this time, a sudden blow, and an unavoidable "Death", directly knocked the bewildered "Astrologer" flying, and he spat out a mouthful of blood while in mid-air.

While spitting blood, he immediately threw out a life-saving scroll obtained from a demigod, and chanted the spell in ancient Hermes language: "Illusion!"

He immediately turned into a phantom and quickly disappeared without a trace in front of Audis.

Audis's spirituality couldn't sense the other party's existence, so he also threw out a scroll emitting a faint light: "Misfortune!"

This was a scroll he developed using demigod-level materials obtained from the "School of Life", which could make the target very unlucky for the next three seconds.

Bang ~

The next second, although he disappeared without a trace, the seriously injured "Astrologer" staggered and very unluckily knocked over the trash can on the side of the street.

Audis immediately pounced over, clenched his right hand wearing the "Reaping Gauntlet", and a dozen fire crows instantly formed, flying towards and exploding around the trash can.

The "Astrologer" desperately dodged, and he could have dodged it, but at this time, his leg unfortunately cramped.

Boom ~

A fire crow exploded on the "Astrologer"'s back, blasting him out, and the blood exposed his whereabouts, and the explosion just now aggravated his injuries, making him unable to continue running.

Audis had already rushed to the vicinity, and punched out with the hand wearing the gauntlet, using the ability of "Reaping".

The "Astrologer" immediately felt his life rapidly draining away, and fell to the ground, without even the strength to crawl.

At this time, the "Gus Staff" in Audis's hand appeared with brilliant starlight, which instantly solidified and formed a "Star Sword" with a little bit of stardust.

Audis pierced the "Astrologer"'s back with a sword, and the tip of the sword protruded from his chest.

Because time was tight, Audis took the opportunity to pick up the "Astrologer" who hadn't completely died and sent him into the "Knowledge Wilderness".

The "Astrologer"'s life had been exhausted, but he hadn't completely died yet, so sending him into the "Knowledge Wilderness" wouldn't be a problem.

At this time, the demigod Cecil, supporting his broken arm, staggered into the alley.

He had clearly cut off his withered arm, but the lost hand and forearm could still transmit maddening pain.

That was a pain that even a demigod couldn't bear.

As soon as he turned into the alley, Cecil happened to see a young man in pajamas picking his "Astrologer" subordinate into a "space magic formation".

Then, without any pause, the other party jumped into the darkness of the alley, like jumping into water, without splashing any "water", and completely disappeared without a trace.

Cecil rubbed his eyes in disbelief, really gone!

Not entering the spirit world, not invisibility, but neither normal vision nor spirituality could feel his existence.

At this moment, Cecil felt a oppressive gaze staring over here.

That gaze came from King's Avenue, obviously the Loen royal family had noticed the angelic battle in the villa, so they activated the corresponding Grade 0 Sealed Artifact and looked over here.

Thinking of this, Cecil immediately hid in the spirit world.

The main target of that gaze was not him, so there was no big problem using the spirit world to escape.

… …

Audis moved forward in the darkness using "Shadow Transformation", and quickly escaped several streets. Because he had used the "Hermit Ring" for a long time, he left the "Shadow Transformation" state in an alley.

He was about to go out to find a taxi carriage, but he saw the pajamas he was wearing, so he had to go further into the alley, change into his clothes amidst the stench of garbage and bursts of urine, and put the leather bag and "Gus Staff" into the "Knowledge Wilderness".

After a simple disguise, Audis quickly left the strong-smelling alley, came to the street, hailed a taxi carriage, first went to the South Bridge District next door, and then hailed another taxi carriage before heading to the "Bay Tavern".

This tavern was not big, and the patrons were relatively silent, with only a few people talking softly in the corner, making it seem like a library.

Audis went to the bar, quietly ordered a beer, and waited for Bernadette while drinking.

After only taking three or four sips of beer, Bernadette's tall and holy figure suddenly appeared in Audis's mind: "Come out."

Audis thought to himself: This kind of contact method is really convenient.

He took a few more sips of beer before getting up and leaving the bar.

It was already late at night, and Audis saw that there was no one around, so he came to a corner of the street.

As soon as his figure entered the darkness, wings with illusory feathers appeared around him, and then, the illusory feathers disappeared, and Audis also disappeared.

When he reappeared, he had come to a spacious room.

This was a bedroom with a fireplace, fully furnished, not only with a bed, desk, wardrobe, etc., but also a set of sofas and a small coffee table.

Bernadette was sitting on the sofa, already drinking tea. She looked at Audis and asked, "Was it smooth?"

"Very smooth." Audis smiled and said, "I also killed a lookout member of the other party by the way."

As he spoke, he looked around and immediately noticed: "Why doesn't this room have a door?"

"This is my safe house in Backlund." Bernadette smiled and said, "It didn't have a door when it was designed, and it changes its position by itself.

"Sometimes I have to look carefully to find it."

Audis sighed: "What a magical room."

"Now there is such a problem." Bernadette said.

Audis asked: "What's the problem?"

Bernadette pointed to the position of the bed: "There is only one bed."

Audis smiled: "I'm here to seek refuge with Her Majesty the Queen, so I can be considered half your guest, so I..."

"You're right, you can be considered my guest, and today I have to thank you for bringing out these hidden dangers of the 'Moses Ascetics'." Bernadette said: "So you sleep on the sofa."

Audis opened his mouth, but did not continue to argue, but said: "Okay then."

Bernadette was somewhat surprised: "I thought you would insist a little more."

"If I insist a little more, would you give me the bed?"

"No."

Audis smiled helplessly: "Then what's the point of me insisting?"

Bernadette waved her hand, and the closet opened by itself, and a pillow and a quilt flew out from inside, landing steadily on the sofa.

She then smiled and said: "I think such a victory is very meaningless."

Audis smiled helplessly, sat on the single sofa next to her: "Is the sofa soft? Is it comfortable to sleep on?"

"It's okay." Bernadette said: "As for whether it's comfortable to sleep on, I haven't slept on it, so I'm not very clear."

She changed the subject: "The 'Moses Ascetics' don't seem to be planning to do anything too big in Backlund."

Then she recounted her previous conversation with Cecil, and finally she added: "If they are going to carry out a plan like before, there will definitely be no warning links."

Audis was stunned: "Then what are they doing in Backlund?"

Bernadette spread her hands: "I don't know, I have to investigate slowly."

Audis leaned on the back of the sofa: "I will also have my people pay attention to this matter."

Bernadette "hmm"ed, then got up and said: "It's getting late, go to rest quickly."

Audis took off his coat: "Okay."

The two people lay down with their clothes on, Bernadette snapped her fingers, and the gas lamps in the room went out.

The whole room was suddenly pitch black, and it was so dark that even Audis's enhanced eyes couldn't see far.

Audis guessed that Bernadette had deliberately created the darkness, but he didn't expose her. He closed his eyes to fall asleep as soon as possible. At first, lying on the sofa felt quite good.

But after lying down for a while, before he could fall asleep, Audis felt uncomfortable on the sofa.

He opened his eyes again, looked at the faintly visible ceiling, and Audis asked, "Are you asleep?"

Bernadette replied, "Yes, I'm asleep."

"You're talking while asleep?"

Bernadette said helplessly, "Do I need to teach you 'meditation'?"

"The sofa is a bit uncomfortable," Audis said. "I want to get used to it before I sleep."

"Do you want me to turn on the light for you?"

"No need," Audis asked, "Have you ever had the experience of lying in bed at night and chatting with someone else?"

Bernadette immediately denied, "No."

"I have,"

"With your girlfriend?"

"No," Audis smiled. "I knew you'd think in the wrong direction."

"It was when I was in school, I lived in a dormitory with several students. When I couldn't sleep at night, we would lie in bed and chat like this."

This topic also gradually piqued Bernadette's interest: "What did you talk about?"

"We talked about history, games, cars... well, carriages, warships," Audis replied.

Bernadette pressed on: "Didn't you talk about female classmates?"

"We did," Audis said. "That was also one of the topics."

"Mysterious Queen" sighed: "I thought you mainly talked about female classmates."

Audis smiled and said, "There were too many things that interested us at that time."

Mainly because when we were talking about warhorses and iron horses, talking about warships and airplanes, suddenly talking about female classmates felt very anticlimactic.

As for talking about female classmates, that required a special session.

At this time, Bernadette asked, "What's so good about talking about history?"

Audis was momentarily speechless, mainly because the Loen Kingdom had only gradually become the world's number one in the last century or so, and the gap between it and the next three was not very large. It seemed that there was really nothing to talk about.

"Well, we mainly talked about historical figures," Audis smiled. "For example, Emperor Rosell."

Bernadette smiled: "So that's how it is."

Then she asked, "It seems like there's nothing to talk about games either, right? Besides, if you live on campus, you're at least teenagers, do you still play games?"

"I misspoke just now, we talked about sports, competitive sports games," Audis quickly changed the subject. "Sometimes I feel that the life I'm living now is quite fragmented."

"Just over two hours ago, I had just killed a Beyonder."

"Now I'm lying on the sofa, having a sleep-inducing chat, and I don't feel a trace of guilt or unease in my heart."

"This shows that you have adapted to the life of a Beyonder," Bernadette said. "Since we have become Beyonders, battles and killings, madness and distortion will be inseparable from us."

"I think this is the reason why Beyonders are prone to losing control, after all, each of us came into this world not to fight, nor to constantly fight against madness and distortion."

"Not every Beyonder can adjust their mental state."

"Or rather, each of us Beyonders has more or less some psychological problems."

Audis was silent for a few seconds before saying, "Your words have instantly elevated the mood of tonight's 'bed talk'."

A smile gradually crept onto Bernadette's face, and then she suppressed the laughter in her voice: "The word 'bed talk' is quite fitting."

As they chatted, Audis spoke less and less, and eventually fell asleep just like that.

Bernadette looked up at Audis on the sofa. Audis felt that the light in the room was dark because the "Mysterious Queen's" ability was targeted at him. For Bernadette, the light in the room had not changed at all.

At this time, Audis looked peaceful, his breathing was even, and there was an unspeakable sense of tranquility.

Bernadette lay down again, quietly looking at the ceiling, as if she saw a bright starry sky.

It seemed like the starry sky she saw on the roof of her house when she was little, which could make people feel happy.

......

The next morning, Audis felt uncomfortable all over after getting up.

Fortunately, he was already Sequence 5, and his physique was much stronger, otherwise he would definitely have back pain.

He saw that Bernadette was already sitting in the armchair in front of the fireplace, and asked, "What's for breakfast?"

Bernadette raised her hand, and a small wooden table appeared in front of her. Then she said in a magnetic voice, "Breakfast is served!"

In an instant, many foods appeared on the small wooden table, including bacon, croissants, sweet biscuits, pies, and drinks such as milk and juice.

Audis sighed: "It's so convenient."

He sat on the carpet next to the small wooden table, ate a milky croissant, and suddenly remembered: "These... these foods aren't illusory, are they? Will they disappear after a while in my stomach?"

"No," Bernadette explained. "This is a legendary table, said to be from a magical carpenter."

"I don't know where these foods come from, but there are no problems, and the taste is okay."

"Sometimes I need to hide in a safe house for a period of time, so I use this small wooden table to eat, and I can stay here for a week or two."

Audis understood that this must be a fairy tale, but he didn't seem to have heard this story before.

Then he thought again, this is normal, there are so many stories in "Grimm's Fairy Tales" and "Andersen's Fairy Tales", he hasn't seen many of them.

Audis smiled while eating breakfast: "If I had such a table, I could stay indoors for a year."

But the premise is that I have to have a mobile phone to watch videos, and I have to have a computer to play games, otherwise I would be locked in a small broken house, and I would lose control in less than a month.

After eating breakfast, Audis said, "We won't still be living here at night, will we?"

"No," Bernadette said. "I also rented several villas in Backlund. I will inform you where to rest tonight in the afternoon."

"Okay," Audis breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll go out to stake out."

Bernadette "hmm"ed, just raised her hand, Audis felt a trance in front of him, and found that he had appeared in the corridor of an apartment.

He was stunned for a moment, then seemed to come back to his senses, passed through the corridor, went down the stairs, and appeared on the street outside.

At this time, Audis was still a little dazed, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It's already so awesome at Sequence 3!

Audis didn't act immediately, but came to a nearby hotel and asked for an hourly room.

After arriving in the room, he lay comfortably on the bed, feeling that it was still comfortable to sleep in bed.

Then Audis used the method of "meditation" to enter the "Knowledge Wilderness."

The "Astrologer" corpse that was thrown in last night had already precipitated the Beyonder characteristics.

Audis casually took it to the "Central Processing Unit", crushed it, and searched the corpse. He didn't find any magical items, but he found more than a dozen scrolls.

Among them, the colors of two scrolls were very special, and I didn't know what material they were made of. They looked as warm as jade, and they didn't look like ordinary scrolls at all.

Without a single mistake, first and foremost, internal and external, all in one glance!

Audis took it to the "Central Processing Unit" for identification. This was a scroll made by a demigod. One of the abilities was to become illusory. During the effective period of the scroll, not only was there an invisibility effect, but the enemy's spirituality could not feel the user of the scroll at all.

The other scroll was more inclined to be offensive, and could release a mass of knowledge that filled the brain, causing the target to lose the ability to resist.

If the state is not good, it is likely to trigger the prelude to losing control. If the state is good, there will be a phenomenon of stagnation of thinking in the next one or two seconds, and there will be a sluggish response and other effects in the next few seconds.

Audis sighed: At the level of a demigod, the scrolls are very advanced. It's just that generally in demigod battles, "Mystics" don't seem to have time to use scrolls, or rather, at that time, only using their own skills is the fastest and most reliable.

Then the scrolls made by demigods seem to only have one purpose: to cultivate subordinates.

There is another purpose!

Audis thought to himself: The opening of the scroll shop is imminent.

This kind of shop can't be opened as casually as a magical medicine shop, after all, the audience of scrolls is not ordinary people.

Therefore, Audis plans to operate in a membership system, first absorbing a part of members from the Mysticism Research Association and the Intelligence Exchange Association, and then after a certain period of investigation, he can let them also introduce new members.

However, where to open the store made Audis a little headache. Although there is the protection of the military and the Church of the Night Goddess, the official Beyonders will turn a blind eye.

But it is still necessary to guard against members of the "Moses Ascetic Order" or similar secret organizations coming to the door to carry out some sabotage actions.

Bernadette's safe house gave Audis a good inspiration. He can create a space that appears once periodically, each time appearing in a different location.

Audis just had a general idea, and Audis gave the remaining specific designs to the two "intelligent puppets."

Then Audis looked at the "Astrologer" corpse on the ground. Because he had been in the "Knowledge Wilderness", his spiritual body had not left the body, and his spirituality had not dissipated, almost like he had just died not long ago.

So Audis took out a magical item he had previously seized, which was benchmarked against the "Seer", and performed spirit channeling.

Because he can borrow the aura of the "Knowledge Wilderness", after injecting spirituality into the magical item, he easily entered the "spirit channeling state."

The “Astrologer’s” spirit body appeared beside the corpse. He looked confused, as if he had lost most of his ability to think.

Audis asked, “What is your purpose in coming to Backlund?”

The other party replied, “To meticulously investigate Audis Garrow.”

Audis was taken aback. They were coming for him?

This reminded him that he had previously used the 'Gustav Staff' to obtain intelligence from Rosalind Reigh, a 'Pillar' of the 'Moses Ascetic Order,' that a group of 'Moses Ascetic Order' members seemed to be searching for him.

So far, Cruz Island has no fame. Except for those who know the inside story, no one will associate this island with the 'Admiral of Mysteries'.

So even if the wanted warrant for the 'Admiral of Mysteries' has Audis Garrow's name on it, the members of the 'Moses Ascetic Order' still can't find Audis on the sea.

Audis asked again, "What is your purpose in investigating Audis Garrow?"

"I don't know."

Audis changed the subject and asked, "Have you found any valuable information?"

"We found Audis's residence before he came to Backlund." The 'Astrologer' said with blurred eyes, "It is almost certain that Audis is a very special existence."

Audis was stunned: "You only found such a few clues?"

"Yes."

Audis couldn't help but smile: "Your investigation skills aren't very good."

He didn't continue asking, but used potion to dissolve the corpse and released the other party's spirit body from the 'Knowledge Wilderness'.

After taking another look at the two 'intelligent puppets' who were doing research, Audis returned to the real world.

After resting for a while, Audis checked out of the hotel, and then used 'Travel' to come to the Queen's borough. In a corner, he used the 'Faceless Man Necklace' to transform into the face of a middle-aged man and began to observe Duke Negan's mansion.

Duke Negan is the leader of the Conservative Party of the Kingdom of Loen, one of the top nobles in the entire kingdom. He has a huge mansion in such a prime location as the Queen's borough, and the lawn alone covers several acres.

You must know that this is in the Queen's borough of Backlund. Such a large place is used for nothing but growing grass…

Audis sighed in his heart: It would be better to grow some vegetables! Such a large piece of land, what a pity!

From such a distance, the scene inside the villa cannot be observed at all.

However, Audis was not in a hurry and walked towards the North borough.

In addition to being a great nobleman, Duke Negan is also a senior official of Loen. Every day he goes to work on Government Street in the North borough from his mansion.

Although Audis did not use his intelligence network to investigate Duke Negan, he could still roughly organize a daily schedule of Duke Negan based on some previously accumulated intelligence.

It is difficult to complete the assassination in Duke Negan's mansion and office area. The road is the most convenient, so Audis walked to scout the location and find a few ambush points.

Audis walked unhurriedly from the Queen's borough to the North borough. Although these two boroughs are separated by the Hilton borough, the overall distance is not very far because there is no need to cross the Tussock River.

At noon, Audis ate some lunch casually, and then in the afternoon, he continued to walk other roads.

In the afternoon, after five o'clock, Audis, who had changed his face again, returned to Duke Negan's mansion. He saw luxurious carriages driving into the mansion, and speculated that there should be a ball tonight.

Audis pondered for a while, and in a corner where no one was around, he used the "Invisibility Scroll" and entered the mansion without anyone noticing.

Audis noticed that Extraordinary people were checking the guests at the door, and there was even a Sequence 6.

He had heard before that since 'Hurricane Admiral' Qilangos assassinated Duke Negan last year, Duke Negan had strengthened the security of his official residence.

Even the gatekeepers are Sequence 6. Audis estimated that Duke Negan should have spent a high price or used connections to hire at least one or two Sequence 5s.

There should always be a Sequence 5 following Duke Negan.

In the state of "Invisibility", Audis did not immediately enter the villa, but went to the servant area in the back.

First, he found a well-fitting servant's uniform here, then turned into another person, put on the servant's uniform, and walked quickly to the kitchen.

Today, the servants of the entire Duke's mansion were very busy, and no one noticed that there was an extra servant.

But Audis knew very well that he couldn't just enter the ballroom like this, because the Extraordinary people protecting Duke Negan there would definitely feel that Audis was unfamiliar and thus discover something was wrong.

Audis lowered his head and pretended to be busy with everyone. In fact, he was waiting.

After waiting patiently for more than half an hour, Audis finally found an opportunity and saw a waiter coming out of the ballroom and heading quickly to the washroom.

Audis also pretended to be in a hurry to urinate and followed him. When he came to the washroom for servants, Audis saw that there was no one around, injected spirituality into the "Dream Bracelet", and suddenly stepped forward, glancing at the other party's eyes.

This servant was just an ordinary person and was instantly "hypnotized". He peed while saying: "My name is Danny. I live at 56 Screw Avenue, Factory District, Backlund. I am currently a second-class male servant. Tonight's task is to deliver wine to the guests.

"The trick of this job is that as soon as you see the wine in the guest's glass is empty, you must serve it immediately.

"But whether he takes it or not is his freedom. If you find that the other person doesn't want wine, you should politely ask if he wants juice or other drinks.

"Observing the guests' eyes must not be impolite, for example, try to only stare at the guests' glasses, try not to make eye contact with the guests. If you accidentally make eye contact, smile or nod as a greeting."

Audis stood behind the second-class male servant and said: "You can go back and rest for a while. You will fall asleep immediately after you go back and will only wake up after two hours.

"When you wake up, you will find that you have returned to your dormitory because you have to polish your shoes.

"After polishing your shoes, you must immediately return to work in the ballroom, because it is too busy today, so time passes very quickly, and two hours have passed in the blink of an eye."

At this time, Danny finished going to the toilet, and Audis used an "Invisibility Scroll" to make Danny invisible to everyone. The second-class male servant returned to the servant's dormitory quickly.

After a while, Audis, disguised as Danny, came out. He carefully wiped his hands and quickly returned to the ballroom.

At this time, the ball had already begun. To the music of the band, many people danced gracefully in the dance floor. Of course, more people were holding wine glasses and chatting in groups of three or five.

In order to deliver wine to the guests at any time, Audis could openly observe the guests in the ballroom.

Soon he found the initiator of this ball, who was also the focus of this ball, Duke Negan.

This duke's waist was already bloated, and only turbidity and desire remained in his sharp and shrewd eyes. However, because he was well maintained, there were almost no wrinkles on his face, and his black hair was still thick.

Audis only glanced at it twice, and then turned his gaze elsewhere. There was indeed a Sequence 5 beside Duke Negan. It was a middle-aged man in his forties with a cold look in his eyes.

Audis was afraid of being noticed and didn't have time to take a closer look.

At this time, Audis glanced at the ladies and young ladies, and an unusually beautiful figure appeared in Audis's sight.

She has golden hair, a pure and elegant temperament, and emerald green eyes that resemble the purest gems. It is "Justice" Audrey Hall.

Audrey wore a gorgeous but not complicated evening dress today. Every movement was elegant and natural, which made Audis couldn't help but sigh: What an artwork of the Creator.

Immediately afterwards, Audis saw the golden retriever dog in the corner of the ballroom. After the big dog noticed Audis's gaze, he immediately turned his head away.

Oops!

Audis realized: It seems that my gaze stayed on Audrey for a little too long... Well, it stayed for more than a second.

Ordinary people certainly wouldn't notice this, but it's hard to say for a "Spectator".

So, in addition to occasionally paying attention to Duke Negan and the Extraordinary people around him, Audis also watched the golden retriever dog Susie to prevent this guy from messing around.

After about twenty minutes, Audrey politely ended the conversation and walked to the terrace outside the ballroom.

She had just seen Susie winking at her and didn't know what Susie wanted from her.

It was also after the previous assassination attempt on Duke Negan that Audrey was very vigilant every time she attended a ball.

But after all, she still had to deal with the ladies and young ladies at the ball, and some details were inevitably missed, so she knew very well that Susie's observation was very important.

On the spacious terrace, there were also a few men smoking and talking. After seeing Audrey coming out, they gentlemanly put out their cigarettes and returned to the ballroom.

Audrey thanked them very politely.

When there was no one else on the terrace, Audrey whispered, "What's wrong? Susie?"

“Audrey, there’s something wrong with a servant.” Susie said, “That’s obviously a second-class male servant, but I saw him paying attention to Duke Negan several times.”

Generally speaking, the Duke and the guests around him are served by male servant leaders or first-class male servants. With them there, there is no need for second-class male servants to pay attention there.

“And I found that his eyes also looked at you a little strangely.” Susie continued, “The most important thing is that the other male servants basically lower their heads and bend slightly, but he is straight.”

Pa Pa Pa~

Audrey didn't even have time to respond when applause sounded from behind, and a male voice said, "Your pet has a very strong ability to observe."

Audrey turned around abruptly and saw a man dressed as a servant come to the terrace, which surprised her greatly, because her spirituality had not detected it at all just now.

She was about to call for help when the man quickly said, "I am 'The Hanged Man'."

Audrey was slightly stunned, and then her expression turned to surprise: "You are…"

Odis made a "hush" gesture, and then said, "I have other things to do today, we'll talk later."

"Okay!" Audrey nodded immediately.

Since he had stabilized Audrey and Susie, in order not to arouse suspicion from others, Odis quickly returned to the ballroom.

Susie looked at the surprised girl and asked, "Audrey, did he see me talking?"

"It seems so." Audrey quickly restrained her emotions: "Even if he didn't see it, he should have heard it.

"But don't worry, he will definitely keep it a secret for us."

Susie then asked, "Who is he?"

Audrey considered it for a moment before smiling and saying, "A friend of mine."

Then she added: "He is a very powerful Beyonder. I didn't expect you to discover his traces. Your performance was great, and you deserve a pack of biscuits as a reward."

"That's great." Susie turned around happily.

At the ball afterwards, Audrey maintained the state of an observer, and did not deliberately observe the servants, until the ball ended and Audrey took the carriage back.

After attending the ball, Audrey rode home alone.

In her car, there was also the personal maid Annie, and the golden retriever Susie.

Audrey was just thinking about how Mr. "Hermit" would contact her when she suddenly saw the carriage moving, the door was opened, and "Hermit" got into the car nonchalantly and sat opposite Audrey: "Hello, Miss Hall."

After learning that "Hermit" was Lulushu, Audrey, who saw a Tarot Club member in the real world for the first time, was a little surprised and a little nervous: "Hello, Mr. 'Hanged Man', or rather, Mr. Gehr."

They tacitly avoided the code names at the Tarot Club.

While greeting him, Audrey observed the young man opposite her. He was younger than she imagined, with bright eyes and a handsome appearance. The small mustache on his upper lip added a touch of maturity to him.

At the same time, she saw that there were a few wrinkles on Mr. Gehr's formal wear that were difficult for ordinary people to notice. This should be a man who doesn't pay much attention to such details.

The windbreaker on the outside described his psychology of not liking restraint and being free and easy.

Then Audrey discovered that Annie and Susie didn't seem to see Odis and didn't react at all.

Odis explained: "I have a Sealed Artifact from the 'Audience' pathway. When you were leaving just now, I had already 'hypnotized' them one after another, so they can't see me now."

Audrey smiled and said, "I didn't expect 'Hypnosis' to be used like this."

Then she asked, "Mr. Gehr, do you have something to do when you suddenly come to Backlund?"

Odis "um"ed: "I'm here to assassinate Duke Negan."

Since Audrey "Justice" had encountered him tonight, Odis estimated that the assassination would not be able to be concealed after it happened. In order to give her some psychological preparation, Odis decided to explain his purpose.

Audrey took a deep breath: "It's Duke Negan again."

Then she said: "You may not be very clear, but 'Rear Admiral Hurricane' assassinated Duke Negan once before, but Mr. 'Fool's' angel killed 'Rear Admiral Hurricane'."

Audrey meant to say that "The Fool" did not want Duke Negan to be killed.

The key is that she really didn't want Mr. Gehr to hurt anyone she knew.

"I also know the details of that assassination very well." Odis said, "Mr. 'Fool' does not support Duke Negan…"

Speaking of this, Odis spread his hands and said: "In a while, I will ask 'The Fool' to help me forward a piece of information about Duke Negan. I think after you read that information, you will definitely have a new view of this nobleman."

Audrey frowned her pretty eyebrows and said, "No matter what, please don't kill innocent people."

"After reading the information, you can choose to report me, or you can choose to pretend that nothing happened." Odis smiled and said: "Remember what I said when I was Lulushu before: I don't have prejudices against all nobles."
