Chapter 63: A Corner of the Curtain

In the first-class cabin of the White Agate, Abner, who had lowered his head and closed his eyes as if he was asleep, suddenly opened his eyes. He first shut down the "mechanical mind" ability, and then recalled what happened in Origin Castle just now. I can't help but sigh in my heart:

"This 'mechanical mind' ability can indeed keep me absolutely calm, but it also has some influence on my xinxing. I didn't intend to have such a utilitarian attitude towards Mr. Fool, and I even wanted to find an opportunity to remind him of some things that need attention Yes...but under the 'mechanical mind', they only considered gains and losses, and successfully completed the goal with some innocuous information and knowledge..."

"It seems that it is best to use this ability only in combat and research in the future. If I use it too much in daily affairs, it will inevitably make my temperament shift... If I only count utility gains and losses in everything, I will only use the most for my actions. Youjie, can that still be considered a 'person'?"

Shaking his head to drive away the apparently excessively divergent thoughts from his mind, Abner looked at the broken pen in his hand again, and thought jokingly:

"If the item I made before was a monocle, after Mister Fool comes into contact with the God of Mischief, will he be so scared that he will lose his hair when he recalls this scene?"

...

Whether Klein will lose his hair is still unknown, but Captain Dunn, who already has a high hairline, has encountered a very difficult matter at this time.

He was originally inspecting Raphael's cemetery, but suddenly the space around him was shrouded by a strange force. The feeling was a bit similar to his ability to pull others into dreams with his nightmare ability, but it was completely different. After all, although this space twisted and shrouded by special power is strange, it doesn't feel like a dream.

Captain Dunn took out the revolver and held it in his hand, and looked around cautiously, wanting to see if there was any opening to escape.

At this moment, a figure wearing a red shirt and a black turtleneck jacket appeared not far from Dunn.

It was a young man with handsome and coquettish features, long silver hair hanging loose, holding an exquisite wine glass filled with red liquid in his right hand. Seeing Dunn looking over, he raised his glass gracefully.

As soon as Dunn saw this man, he instinctively felt a kind of oppression from a superior creature. This kind of suppression seems to come from the dark realm, making it impossible for him to exert his nightmare ability.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Dunn didn't attack immediately, but asked calmly.

The man shook the wine glass in his hand, watched the scarlet liquid swaying, chuckled and said, "Of course I'm here to wait for you, Captain Dunn."

"Wait for me? What's the matter?" Dunn asked in a deep voice after being stunned for a moment.

But he didn't believe that the other party was waiting for him here. He is just a Sequence 7 Nighthawk team leader, but the other party gives him the feeling that he is stronger than Your Excellency Sesima, maybe he is a demigod.

How could such a big man come here to wait for him? Maybe the opponent's target is the Church of Evernight in Tingen?

Thinking of this, Dunn's face became paler, and his eyes staring at the man became sharper.

The man shook his head, put down his wine glass, and walked forward slowly. At the same time, two huge illusory bat wings appeared behind him, completely covering the entire cemetery, and the black light swayed slightly like water waves.

"Vampire?" Dunn narrowed his eyes, and raised the revolver. Even if he had no chance of winning, as the captain of the Nighthawks team, he would not be caught without a fight.

"Don't be so nervous, I don't mean anything malicious, I just want to sell favors to a friend I haven't met yet." The man slowly walked up to Dun En, and said with a leisurely smile, "And I'm really waiting for you According to the decree issued by the ancestor, that friend valued this city very much, and seemed to want to change some established destiny here. And I have been here for a long time to observe,

Your destiny has the most traces of human interference, so I'm here to give you a guarantee. "

"What?" Dunn was so suppressed by the other party's breath that he couldn't even move his fingers, but this did not prevent him from understanding what the other party meant.

"Of course, in addition to making that friend, there may be other gains!" The young man said here and looked in the direction of the Deville Library, and then he walked behind Dunn, his white and neat teeth protruding It has four fangs that shone with silvery white luster.

It is not scary, but has a strange beauty.

"Don't worry, this is just a preventive measure, not a first hug, and you won't die because of a potion conflict out of control!" After finishing speaking, his teeth bit Dun En's neck.

After a long time, Dunn woke up suddenly, he touched his neck subconsciously, his face was full of bewilderment. Because all he remembered was falling asleep in the cemetery. But a Nightmare would fall asleep unconsciously? Even curly-haired baboons might find it impossible.

"Is my memory so bad that I can even forget what happened just now?" Dunn said to himself with an ugly face.

...

On the outskirts of Tingen, a house with a green lawn.

It has spacious gardens still in bloom, with dark red chimneys.

Behind the bedroom window of the house is a desk with an unassuming notebook open on it.

A quill was writing strangely on the note at this time:

"Dunn Smith suddenly fell into a deep sleep while inspecting the cemetery, but he forgot how he fell asleep after waking up. He wanted to report this weird incident to the church headquarters, but because there was no obvious evidence, there was no follow-up This made him hesitant, and even suspected that he had signs of losing control."

"But he later found that his state was unexpectedly good, and even the frequent trances that appeared after connecting to the Antigonus family notebook disappeared."

"In the end he decided not to report it, but to increase the frequency of inspections in the cemetery in order to find new clues. This is very reasonable."

...

Abner had just packed up the broken pieces of pens and poured them into the trash can when he felt the spiritual wall being touched. He sensed it and found that it was Aitris standing outside the room.

After lifting the spiritual blockade, there was indeed a knock on the door, and Abner walked out unhurriedly and opened the door. Let Ai Trisi into the room.

"Abner, do you still have the item in your hand? I bought it for 400 pounds!" Aitris asked impatiently as soon as she entered the door.

"The money was raised so quickly? Hasn't it landed yet?" Abner was a little surprised when he heard the words, but soon had a guess, and asked directly, "Anderson gave it to you?"

"As expected of a detective, I guessed it right away!" Ai Triss nodded in admiration, and then continued, "It's not a gift, but a loan. When I arrive at Enmat Port, I have to raise money to return it to him. "

Abner had already recognized Aitris as a friend in his heart, so he said with concern at this time: "Even if it's only a temporary loan, I'm afraid there will be a price to pay... What did you promise him?" In fact, it is better to ask him to borrow from a stranger. . At least he won't ask for any conditions.

"I need to join his hunter team... It's not a bad thing for me, because he will be responsible for teaching me the knowledge of 'hunters', as well as follow-up potion formulas, etc... This is exactly what I need!" Ai Cui Si said firmly.

He also knew what Abner was worried about. In fact, he also had similar worries, but since he decided to become a big shot among adventurers no matter what, a little risk was the price he had to bear.

It seems that Anderson formed the hunter team for the promotion ceremony... There should be no danger to his life, and at most he will be punished so that he has nothing to love... After all, in order to make the team cooperate tacitly and communicate with each other, he personally took the initiative to draw the hatred of all the team members.

While complaining about Anderson's saucy operations in the future, Abner also took out the tin box sealed with the extraordinary characteristic of 'Hunter' from the luggage.

Unlock the spiritual ban, open the box, and display the jelly-like crimson object in front of Aitris.

"It really is the Extraordinary characteristic of 'Hunter'!" Ai Triss blurted out this sentence under the agitation of emotion.

"You know him? It seems that Anderson has taught you a lot during this day!" Abner said with a meaningful look at him.

"It's not a lot, but Mr. Anderson showed me one that is exactly like this one before." Aitris took out a bag while talking, counted 40 10-pound banknotes and handed them to Abner.

After receiving it, Abner opened his pure white eyes to analyze and check one by one, and he couldn't be fooled by counterfeit money.

"Since Anderson has the 'Hunter' feature in his hand, why did you come to me to buy it?" Abner asked casually after confirming that they were genuine.

"Because he seems to be cultivating a hunter team of at least 30 people, so his attitude towards Extraordinary characteristics is to buy as long as you have it." Ai Triss replied after covering the tin box and putting it away.

Abner suddenly felt something was wrong when he heard this. If Anderson found some clues of the ceremony from the deeds of the predecessors of the Sequence Four "Iron Blood Knight", he thought it was possible to consciously imitate the formation of the team.

But this specification of "at least 30 people" cannot be explained from the analysis of clues, which shows that Anderson got the potion formula of Sequence 4... at least part of the formula!

But in the original book, he definitely didn't exist at this time... What's the problem? The biggest difference between him and the original plot should be that he sent me things and messages... Could it be that this is a reward from the Church of Knowledge?

After analyzing this point, Abner was even more puzzled:

If it was really the handiwork of the Church of Knowledge, then he probably has deeper plans for Anderson! After all, it's just a message, even if I'm valued, this value can't be equal to the potion formula of Sequence 4!
