Mystery: Shadow of Order

"It would be good if it was just insomnia." Allen shook his head, "In fact, my condition has not been very good recently. I have made mistakes in several consecutive operations, but fortunately it did not cause too serious consequences, otherwise I may have been arrested. Revocation of license."

Although in the current era, it is not a big news for a surgeon to perform an operation on a dead person, and it is a common thing, but if a serious accident is caused by one's own mistakes, the punishment is still quite severe. And for a well-known surgeon like Allen, even this salvaged mistake could have put his career in jeopardy.

"That's right, then it's best to take a break and relax." Rawls waved at Morris, the personal servant. "Alan, how about a cup of Marquis tea?"

"Oh, thank you." Alan adjusted his glasses, "You're right, I've already asked for a two-week leave, and I'm even going to travel with my wife and children, but she's still teaching, Not a good time off."

With your current unfortunate state, if you go out on a tour, I'm afraid it won't be much better... Rawls tapped the armrest of the sofa lightly and chuckled:

"Then are you sure Velma will be willing?" Dr. Allen's wife, Velma Gladys, is a middle school teacher.

Counting the time, Will Auceptin should have restarted, maybe it's already in Velma's stomach. When Allen suddenly came to the door, he might have been influenced by Will Auceptin. After all, with his relatively cold personality, he rarely visited friends.

In this world, especially a well-educated person like Alan, even mutual visits between friends are scheduled in advance, and unless it is urgent, such visits without an appointment are regarded as a sign of impoliteness.

Ellen couldn't help but sighed and said:

"I'm also a little undecided, so I'm still considering it. We haven't traveled for a long time, and there aren't many places to travel around Backlund."

"Want me to recommend you a suitable place?"

After seeing Allen nodding, Rawls continued:

"How about Tingen? I just came back from there. It's a good place. It's a university town, and the steam train only needs four to disappear. I think Velma would like it, but the two little guys in your family may not like it there."

"Perhaps, I shouldn't think about traveling." Allen thought of the son and daughter at home, and rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. The two little guys were not very old, and they were naughty years, and took them out. Definitely a hassle.

"Forget it, I'll think about it again. After all, I still have plenty of time, unlike you and Talim who have been busy recently."

Rawls frowned slightly, now that it has entered October, which is the autumn hunting season, Talim is an equestrian coach and is quite busy with his work.

"Which aristocratic young master is Talim teaching recently?"

"The youngest son of the Viscount Conrad, but according to Talim, it seems that he still has some friends." Allen thought about it carefully.

friend? There should be the Prince of Edsac... Rawls was silent for a few seconds. Morris, his personal servant, came to the living room with two cups of Marquis black tea, placed it on the coffee table, and then respectfully retreated.

Allen picked up the white-glazed porcelain teacup, smelled the fragrant tea fragrance, took a sip and saw Rawls who fell into a silent state, put down the teacup and asked softly:

"What's wrong?"

Rawls glanced at Alan Kreis, who had a concerned look. He picked up the teacup but didn't drink it. His voice was a little low:

"I'm not very optimistic that Talim wants to use those noble children to restore the family's reputation."

Allen was a little surprised and puzzled. Although the three of them are friends, this kind of thing is not something that can be discussed among friends. And someone like Rawls from a superior background and enough education should have enough experience in getting along with friends. In other words, such words should not have come out of Rawls's mouth.

Thinking of the recent newspaper reports, Allen's expression became serious:

"Is something wrong?"

Rawls was a little surprised at Allen's quick response, but he didn't answer directly:

"I may leave Backlund recently."

leave? Allen knew that Rawls's office was expanding recently, and it was impossible to leave Backlund at this time, and there were always rumors that behind him was Duke Negan's only son, Lord Philip Negan, who was the largest other than the royal family. Nobles!

"I see, will this affect you?"

"No, I'm just leaving temporarily. At the end of the year, I'm going to take my colleagues from the firm on vacation." Rawls waved his hand and said no more.

Alan didn't say much. The two chatted for a while about the travel location, and he politely left.

Saying goodbye to Allen, Rawls sat on the sofa and rubbed his temples. He had tried his best for Talim, but as a friend, he had no way to stop Talim from interacting with those nobles, especially those like Edsack. The prince was thus able to restore the existence of his family's reputation.

However, Ellen Kreis' visit was definitely influenced by Will Auceptin. After all, the topics of conversation between the two today, except for Talim's affairs, were almost all dispensable things, which were not enough at all. Let Alan make this walk-in visit.

Regarding the purpose of the Speaker of the Life School, the "Mercury Snake" of Sequence 1, Rawls believes that there may be a result today. With the ability to dream, the "Destiny" pathway is no better than "Darkness" The way is too different.

Perhaps, I should take a nap in a while... As for going to the office, Rawls believes that with his own promise last night and Uncle Robert's presence, there is not much difference between going and not going.

...

In an illusory and fuzzy space, Rawls's consciousness was dizzy, like a small boat on the sea, thrown up by the rolling waves, and fell heavily; and it seemed that there was only a thin thread tied to his waist. , Below is the abyss, and it may fall to the bottom at any time because of the thin line around the waist.

Rawls, who was awake and drowsy lying on the bed, moved his eyelids slightly, sweat poured out of his forehead, and slid down his skin to wet the pillow, and his back also felt wet. His consciousness finally woke up, but he couldn't open his eyes, and every inch of his body seemed to be restricted.

After an unknown period of time, he suddenly woke up and found that he was not lying on the bed, but came to a barren black plain. Except for the dark stone, there was no trace of life here.

His brown eyes were dyed with a layer of dark gray, and he looked at this strange world indifferently. In the center of the plain stood a black minaret, and a huge silver-white long snake was coiled on it. Its head was already erected. Bright red eyes stared coldly at Rawls.

There are no substantial scales on this silver-white giant snake, only the dense patterns and symbols, which form the wheels connected to each other, and there are different signs around each wheel.

Its tail and head have only half of the wheel each, which looks quite incongruous, but if the silver-white giant snake can bite its tail with its mouth, the wheel will be complete, everything will be complete, no longer There are imperfections, and there is no change.

The dark gray in Rawls' eyes became more and more obvious, and a little bit of light with light gray flowed out like a substance. The body of the silver-white giant suddenly stood upright, and the body wrapped around the spire also began to swim, like a blood-colored gem. His icy eyes that flickered looked in the opposite direction to Rawls.

He can realize that he is still in a dream, in a dream invaded by Will Auceptin, but he does not have the ability to stay awake in a dream like Klein. Came to the black minaret.

The giant snake wrapped around the spire seemed to have spotted the enemy and lowered its upper body, but it was still looking in the opposite direction, as if Rawls was there. Looking at the huge snake body, Rawls did not have a trace of fear in his heart, as if he was certain that the giant snake would not be able to find himself.

An old and decayed wooden door opened automatically in front of him, as if the owner here welcomed him into the dark tower. Rawls stepped into the gate slowly, and found that the layout was unusually chaotic.

The stairs first spiraled upwards, and then fell diagonally. Some of the halls, libraries, and various rooms were normal, some were upside down, and some were embedded in other parts. This is a building that cannot exist in the real world.

The light gray real light flowing from his eyes seemed to be a little deeper, and the stairs, walls, wooden doors, and rooms in front of him had changed. New stairs, new walls, new wooden doors, new rooms.

The gaps created by movement and composition are dark and deep, as if leading to some unknown place. This kind of movement and combination is extremely fast, dazzlingly fast, as if it may fall into the gap at any time.

But Rawls moved forward only by instinct. His next footsteps were some broken brick, some rotten wood, some part of a certain door, and some deep and unknown leading to nowhere. There was a gap space, but as he stepped down, a piece of wood or plank moved quickly.

As he moved forward, the space behind him also stopped changing, and intact rooms were assembled one by one, but there were no longer any that were upside down or embedded in other parts, all of which were slightly normal. The room just looks a little asymmetrical.

A long wooden ladder gradually formed at the foot of Rawls. This ladder was very straight, neither going up nor down. It was laid flat and forward, and it did not appear to be a ladder at all.

If someone walks in from outside the black spire, they will definitely find that the world inside the tower is not what it looks like on the outside:

A long plank-paved staircase leads to the distance, with asymmetrical rooms on both sides, and the top is dark and deep, as if leading to an unknown place.

But Rawls didn't notice any abnormality, he still walked forward, and this long passage finally came to the end. At the end of the passage, in the thick darkness, a figure curled up in the corner ahead.

Rawls's forward footsteps stopped suddenly, the light gray light flowing from his eyes shrank back, and the dark gray in his eyes disappeared, turning brown again.

The world behind him has changed again, and reorganization has begun, but this reorganization has been completed in the blink of an eye, and the world in the spire has returned to its original state.

Rawls finally woke up and looked at the figure in the corner. The figure noticed his gaze, and stood up hurriedly, jumping on one leg to approach. It wasn't until the figure was close at hand that he could see his appearance clearly.

The figure was about 1.4 meters tall, with an empty left calf, standing in front of Rawls.

Rawls bowed slightly and saluted him:

"Good noon, Your Excellency Snake of Destiny."

Will Auceptin raised his head, his face still childish, as if he didn't notice the changes in the tower just now:

"Is it noon outside now?"

"Yes, it's just that there is no sun today." This kind of weather topic is something that every Backlund person is good at.

"It doesn't matter to me, I won't be able to see the sun for a while." Will Auceptin frowned and pouted, "Can't you squat here? I hate raising my head and talking to others Speaking of which, such people will not be very lucky."

Rawls' face collapsed, and he immediately squatted down so that Will Auceptin could look down at himself, while Will Auceptin nodded in satisfaction as if he had eaten ice cream.

"I hope I don't get the same treatment as my friend, who hasn't been doing so well lately."

"I don't want this either." Will Auceptin scratched his hair, "I was restarting at that time, returning to the 'disaster priest', although by virtue of my personality, those disasters did not cause me trouble, but close to My people will suffer some bad luck. In order to prevent that person from seeing it, I can only fold a thousand paper cranes for him."

Rawls knew that Will Auceptin was not talking about another "Snake of Mercury~www.wuxiaspot.com~" but a goddess, whose honorable title had the description "Queen of Distress and Fear".

"Go back to the 'Ceremonial Priest'?"

"What do you think 'reboot' means?" Will Auceptin asked rhetorically, then he glanced above his head and waved his hand, "Don't say this, I have a hunch that this conversation will be better than I imagined. end sooner.”

"Earlier?" Rawls was a little puzzled.

"You didn't contaminate the token of my power. This dream itself was forcibly intervened by me."

After he quickly explained a sentence, he continued:

"You're going to Olavi, I know what you're going to do, but I have a hunch that you'll succeed, but it's not the effect you expected."

It seems that Duke Negan was already dead when I found out the results, so Philip wouldn't do it... Rawls nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

"I can help you, but I also need your help. You can go to Dark Will for specific matters. You should know where he is. He will take you to..."

"Boom", the world in front of Rawls's eyes shattered, and he suddenly woke up from his dream.
