Chapter 678: Lieutenant General Deep Sea’s Information
"Why did the 'King of the Five Seas' order similar items?" After hearing Mr. Gaston's words, Abner could not help but be stunned for a moment, intuiting that "Count Bai Feng" might have "awakened" some strange attributes. .
Speaking of which, Abner created such an item not really for the purpose of "playing tricks", but to use this "witch transformation" to reconcile or even avoid the influence of the "cold-blooded one" in the "Apostle of Desire" trait. , so that users will not "change their temperament drastically".
Mr. Gaston put down his magic wand and replied with a strange expression: "Although there is no evidence, I have an intuition that the person who actually ordered similar items is not Lord Nast himself, but the third officer Litori on the Black Emperor." Oh...he is also the holder of the 'Transformation Magic Wand-Wind' that I created..."
As for his purpose? Probably because I don’t want to be too “lonely” on the boat… I have to drag someone into the boat!
I seem to have heard of this person... Abner thought about it briefly and remembered that when he was on the "Golden Dream", he once encountered the "Black Emperor" dealing with a companion who had lost control... and the person who took action at that time seemed to It's Littorio who seems to have used the "Magic Wand of Transformation"...
"'Wind Witch'?" Abner asked tentatively. He remembered that this was the nickname Edwina told him.
"You know?" Mr. Gaston glanced at Abner in surprise. He thought that Abner had been immersed in women in the past few months and had no intention of paying attention to other things.
——Although the popularity of "hero detective" has become somewhat outdated, there are still adventurous adventurers and pirates who are willing to spread some gossip.
Speaking of which, had it not been for the "Backlund Great Smog Incident" that attracted everyone's attention on the sea a few days ago, and the news that "a farewell to the 'heroic detective' almost led to a tragedy" at Bayam Port, It will definitely become a "hot spot".
Abner didn't know that Mr. Gaston was talking about something inappropriate, so he just said casually: "Of course I remember the big pirate with a bounty of 9,000 pounds."
Mr. Gaston shook his head and said: "His bounty has increased to 11,000 pounds per country, which is comparable to a pirate general."
"What did he do?" Abner asked curiously.
"It is said that he discovered the secret of 'Vice Admiral Deep Sea' and ruined his plan. The other party wanted to silence him, but failed." Mr. Gaston replied.
That is indeed powerful. As a pirate general, "Vice Admiral of the Deep Sea" Hal Constantine is stronger than the average Sequence 5... But Littorio is only a Sequence 6 "Corrupted Baron" without transforming. The gap with the other party is not small.
"But what does this have to do with increasing the bounty?" Abner asked in confusion.
"'Vice Admiral Deep Sea' is actually inextricably linked to Intis. There are also rumors that he is the illegitimate son of a large family in Trier... In short, his so-called 'secret' may also be Intis. That's why the Wind Witch increased the reward." Mr. Gaston, as a peripheral member of the "Church of Steam" and an Intis himself, is very well-informed.
"That's it..." Abner thought for a while and asked Mr. Gaston for the inside story of the matter. Unfortunately, this gentleman only knew so much.
And the reason why he is so concerned is because this matter involves "Vice Admiral of the Deep Sea", and as early as when Abner was exploring the "Elf Trial" copy on the fifth floor of the "Dream Labyrinth Tower", he had given him at the Elf Temple In the reward, I saw a scene about "Vice Admiral of the Deep Sea" sacrificing a living person to a sea monster with the characteristics of "Prophet".
At that time, he judged that it was his chance to become a Sequence 4, and also deduced that the time and place of the other party's sacrifice should be a certain day in April, on a small island on the west side of the southern continent.
"Could the secret discovered by Littorio be related to the sea monster's sacrifice? If so...it seems that the sea monster not only has a master-servant relationship with 'Vice Admiral of the Deep Sea', but also probably has a relationship with Intis. A certain family has a contract...
"No wonder the 'Temple of Trials' would give such a revelation... If you really only prepare to deal with the 'Deep Sea Vice Admiral' and a sea monster in poor condition, you will definitely be tricked to death!"
Thinking of this, Abner quietly made a "prophecy" and confirmed that his guess was correct. What Littorio discovered was indeed related to the "sea monster"...
He considered it for a moment, then pushed the "Transformation Magic Wand-Fire" he made in front of Mr. Gaston, and said, "Can I ask you a favor?"
"You want to use this item in exchange for information from Littorio?" Mr. Gaston guessed Abner's plan after thinking for a while.
"That's right, the main material of this 'magic wand' is the characteristics of the 'Desire Apostle' and the 'Witch', and before the 'Desire Apostle' was killed, he also had a little bit of the 'Blood of the Ancient God', so Only by hiding in the 'fire light' without being discovered by ordinary 'demigods'...
"And its negative effects are also within controllable range...
"To put it all together, if it were auctioned, it would be worth at least 10,000 pounds, which is equivalent to the bounty of the 'Wind Witch', which is enough to exchange for the information he worked so hard to get."
When Abner said this, he also tried to hide this ability of "hiding in light". After all, this was something that Mr. Gaston failed to "identify" just now.
Seeing this, Mr. Gaston hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and said: "I will help you get a more reasonable price...but we have to split the money we get 80/20, between you and me."
"Deal." Abner agreed without any embarrassment.
After a lot of gains in the "Land of Darkness", he is now so "rich" that he doesn't care about the small money at all.
"You will be leaving Damir soon, right? How should I inform you if the deal is completed?" Mr. Gaston asked.
"You can just send me a telegram. I will stay in Backlund for a few days and take care of some things." Abner replied with a smile.
…
While Abner was resting in Port Damir, Audrey, dressed up in her best clothes, stood in the palace lounge, waiting for the New Year's party to begin. However, her expression could not tell that she was excited about the upcoming coming-of-age ceremony. Excitement and joy.
There was a newspaper in front of her, which read:
"...According to preliminary statistics, more than 10,000 people died directly in the smog, and the subsequent spread of the plague took away nearly 30,000 to 40,000 people, including young children and strong young men and women... "
Phew, Audrey closed her eyes to adjust her mood, then walked out of the lounge accompanied by her parents and entered the party hall.
Finally, the queen led her to the edge of the high platform, faced all the guests, and announced to everyone:
"Although this is a dark period in Backlund's history, we still have a gem that can illuminate the entire city. Her wisdom, her beauty, her character, and her etiquette are all impeccable.
“Today, I will formally introduce her to you.
"Miss Audrey Hall."
boom! boom! boom!
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, fireworks took off into the sky, exploding into pieces of dreamy light.
On the night of the last day of 1349, Audrey officially came of age in a social sense.
…
On the afternoon of January 3, 1350.
On the outskirts of the Eastern District, Klein, who had transformed into a young gentleman with neat black hair and dark brown eyes, was walking in a newly opened cemetery.
This is the new image he chose for himself, and his identity was entrusted to Miss Temperance to find someone named "Gehrman Sparrow".
The cemetery where he is currently located is not a real tomb, but cabinets where urns are stored, one after another, one row after another, one overlapping the other.
"Mr. Corson and his wife..." Following the spiritual guidance, Klein soon saw the photos and spiritual tablets of two people he knew.
Mr. Corson is the president of the dock union. He once asked him to investigate who was "instigating" his wife before she advocated leaving him...
Although this matter was finally taken over by Stewart of the Church of Storms, Klein later heard that the Cosons were getting a divorce...
Unexpectedly, they were eventually buried together as husband and wife.
Sighing, Klein walked past the cabinet of their ashes and soon saw another acquaintance.
That was the landlord of the one-bedroom house he rented in the East District. After the house was destroyed by the battle between the captain and the Rose Bishop of the Aurora Society, the landlord kindly refunded the rent to him...
After looking at the cabinets one by one, Klein slowly exhaled and said to himself with some luck: "Fortunately, old Kohler was saved by Sharon...
"The sisters Daisy and Freya are fine too..."
Regarding his informant, Klein also asked Sharon to help arrange for him to go to Pulitzer Harbor to take care of the child of Maric's friend. After all, he had a lot of interactions with Detective Sherlock. If the official investigated him, they would definitely find him... Or It's better to let him remain anonymous.
While thinking this in his mind, Klein looked around and took in the victims who only had their names and photos left here, and not even these.
Then he turned around and left the cemetery without looking back, rushing to Backlund Train Station.
…
Woo!
The steam train arrived at Backlund with countless hopeful people. Abner dragged his suitcase and Elaine, who had regained her red hair, got off the train one after another, while "Lion" Leon transformed into an orange cat and followed him. beside them.
At this time, a brother and sister also carried suitcases and walked out of the station along with the crowd, walking side by side with Abner.
At the same time, Miss Sharon, who was like an exquisite doll, happened to deliver Klein to the station and separated from him.
Abner and Klein looked at each other and recognized each other, but they tacitly agreed not to speak to each other.
But just as the three parties passed each other, the younger sister of the brother and sister suddenly turned her head, looked at Abner for a few times, and then asked uncertainly:
"Are you Detective Abner Blaine?"
