Mystery: Start with the Reader

The holy light in the sun domain, Abner has seen Mr. Gaston use Extraordinary items more than once when fighting against monsters on Damir Island, so the analysis of it by "Pure White Eye" is relatively complete, and it is simulated now, at least More than 80% of the efficacy of the original version.

As the clear and pure warm light descended from the sky, it fell directly on the head of the giant priest. A scream followed, and a golden flame outlined a phantom figure above the priest's head!

The phantom and the golden light were in a stalemate for a while, and then they were quickly defeated.

Then, in the warm and bright light, all the coldness, all the evil, and all the dark shadows quickly dissipated.

Looking at the holy light he summoned, Abner nodded in satisfaction. He didn't know if it was a coincidence, but he always felt that his simulation effect on the abilities of the other four pathways of "omnipotence" was far better than other extraordinary pathways.

For example, Hugh's "majesty", even if it is only a Sequence 9 ability, he can simulate at most five or six points. As for the related abilities of 'Wind Blessed One' and 'Sun Priest', even though they are both very difficult, the simulated effects are better.

"If I could prepare the ceremony in advance and pray for help from the Eternal Blazing Sun when I simulated the Holy Light just now, the effect of exorcism may not be inferior to that of the original 'Sun Priest'...Of course, this is just a thought, I have only one knowledge The Blessed One prays to the Eternal Blazing Sun? I'm afraid He gave me a 'Spear of Darkness' on the spot!"

After a few words of self-deprecation in his heart, Abner turned his gaze to the giant priest not far away. At this time, the traces of the other party's loss of control had disappeared, and his wrinkled cheeks returned to peace. He was closing his eyes tightly, clasped his hands, and pressed his chin, as if he was making the most pious confession.

After a while, he opened his eyes, revealing a light blue, and said to Abner with a smile: "My child, thank you. I'm fine now."

It seems that he has temporarily suppressed the former him from the essence? That's right, the giant priest's situation wasn't that bad. If he hadn't been cursed by black magic, he wouldn't have gotten close to losing control.

From this point of view, although the Dawn Knight also has the ability to exorcise evil spirits, compared with the Sun Domain, there is still a gap.

With these thoughts in mind, Abner did not take back the revolver, nor continued to approach, but asked cautiously: "Mr. Priest, is there anything else you need my help for?" I just have nothing else to do and I'll go first.

"My name is Ivanov Ilyich Utravsky, you can call me Father Utravsky. Sincerely thank you, child." In a peaceful but emotional voice, Utravsky Bishop Ji stood up. He was more than 2.20 meters tall, with a strong physique and tight priest uniform, like a legendary giant reappearing in the Northern Continent.

Compared with calling you by your name, it’s actually easier to call you Mr. Priest! Abner complained about the composition of the name of the Feysac Empire in his heart, but on the surface he asked with concern: "Mr. Priest, why are you cursed by evil spirits?"

"I didn't notice for a while, and I was ambushed while tracking down a thief..." Father Utravsky explained vaguely, and then sincerely said to Abner:

"Son, you saved me, and I will repay you. But today is very late, I don't think you can rest assured to follow me back... Well, you can come to the Harvest Church on Rose Flower Street tomorrow during the day, and then I will A thank you gift will be prepared for you."

In this regard, Abner did not hypocritically refuse. Although saving the priest was just a matter of convenience, since Lilith has already paid attention to him, it is only natural to get some wool from his hands.

As for completely curing the priest's schizophrenia? That should be left to Klein who is looking for a magician to perform in the future. He has no plans to work hard for a half-baked person. Even the members of the Tarot Society who have a good impression of everyone, except Xio,

Abner's current thinking is still to provide limited help within the scope of his ability without exposing himself.

After watching Father Utravsky disappear into the night with vigorous steps, Abner narrowed his eyes and analyzed the other party's previous answer:

"In the novel, this priest knew everything about Klein who broke into the Harvest Church rashly. Why did he speak so vaguely when he came to me? No, he told Klein about his own affairs, so that's why he said so. Frankly speaking... So, this time it is likely to involve the business affairs of the Church of the Mother Earth."

"I was ambushed while chasing the thief...With the priest's powerful frontal combat ability, if he wanted to plot against him, the opponent obviously planned it long ago...And using black magic to curse, very similar to the handwriting of a witch..."

"If the witch really did it, I don't know what she stole from Father Utravsky."

After thinking for a while, Abner didn't waste any more time. He hurried to the subway station and took the last subway back to the teacher's home in the Hillston area.

After a short rest, according to the usual practice before leaving Backlund, Abner first borrowed '2-081' to analyze it for a while, then read the books in the teacher's study for a while, and finally returned to his room to sink fell asleep.

The next day, that is, in the early morning of July 22, Abner had a simple breakfast and was about to go out to the Harvest Church in the South District to see what Father Utravsky had prepared for him. Isinger Stanton The detective came over with a stack of newspapers and put them on the table.

Abner glanced down, and found that the top one was the "Daily Observer" for which Mike was a reporter.

"You also solved a murder case on the passenger ship back? You didn't mention this when you told your experience before." Detective Essinger asked with a smile.

Because that matter may involve the Mercury Snake, it's better if you are a Sequence 7 and don't know... Well, although I am also a Sequence 7, I already have a lot of eyesight, and I don't feel bitten if I have too many lice.

Abner laughed at himself a few words, and then briefly told the teacher how the child was stuck to death by a nut, not even mentioning the gold coin from the Solomon Empire period.

"Why does it feel a bit too coincidental..." Detective Essinger is worthy of being an old fritter, and immediately heard something wrong from his student's words, but seeing that Abner didn't have any intention of explaining, he also Without going into the details, he said instead: "That reporter Mike is quite a friend. He even published this matter on the second edition. It seems that you will soon gain a good reputation."

Although the "Daily Observer" is not the best newspapers, its circulation is quite large, and it is only slightly inferior to the big newspapers covering the entire Loen Kingdom, such as "Tasok Daily" and "Becklund Daily".

Being able to appear in such a newspaper, even if it only gets a small section, is enough to give Abner a lot of fame.

"So I also invited him to the dance tonight." Abner replied with a smile after swallowing the last piece of ham.

...

Harvest Church is one of the few churches of the Church of the Mother Earth in the Loen Kingdom, and it is also the only church in Backlund that believes in the Mother Earth.

This golden church has a more eye-catching spire and the holy emblem of life engraved on the outer wall. It is a simple baby surrounded by symbols such as ears of wheat, flowers and spring water, which is completely different from the surrounding buildings.

Abner pushed in through the tall main entrance, looking out, in the church hall, rows of seats were arranged neatly, with a huge holy emblem of life on top, and lit candles on both sides. Although it is clean and bright, it seems that there is not a single believer.

On a seat in the front row, the mountain-like priest Utravsky was praying with his eyes closed. He only opened his eyes and turned around when he heard someone coming in.

Seeing that it was Abner, the 40-50-year-old priest raised his lips a little bit, and said with a kind smile:

"Son, you're here."

"Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for saving me."

"In addition, I have already prepared the thank you gift."

While speaking, he took out a mask of invisible material from the pocket of the brown priest's uniform. The mask is painted with exaggerated colors and weird textures, resembling a clown.

"This is actually the spoils of yesterday's ambush. I don't know its name, I just call it the 'clown mask'. After my identification and experiments, I can change my appearance into another person after wearing it... ...well, just the look...but once the changed look is assigned, it can't be changed easily, at least once a month or two. Currently it's assigned the appearance of a beautiful lady, you can wait After a period of time, you can use it after reweaving your face. In addition, after wearing it, your strength, speed, balance and other aspects will be greatly improved." Bishop Utravsky pointed to the items in his hand.

Is this a clown mask? At present it is a mask of a masquerade in disguise! And you also experimented... I don't know what kind of 2 meters 2 burly muscular giant with a small beautiful face is like...

The image of Nezha in a comedy animation flashed involuntarily in his mind, and Abner hurriedly shook his head to interrupt the terrible association, took a deep breath and asked:

"So, what about its limitations and hidden dangers?"

Father Utravsky glanced at the mask with strange patterns, and introduced in detail:

"It may have the property of being 'alive'... because it will expect you to perform after wearing the mask, you'd better develop a character for the character you pretend to be and create a stage for the corresponding performance before wearing it, Otherwise, once it is dissatisfied, it will actively manipulate your body to perform the performance it wants!"

"In addition to these, it also has a problem. Once you wear it for more than two hours, you may be replaced by the character you made, and your spirit may be split."

Abner breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this negative effect. The 'alive' feature may be troublesome to others, but it is easy to deal with those with golden fingers.

Even if his "pure white eyes" couldn't suppress the mask, wouldn't it be honest to put this kind of thing that is a "Seer" sequence on the gray fog? It just happens to add a sense of mystery to Mr. Fool in front of the Tarot Society.
