Mystery: Start with the Reader

Abner thought for a while, but there were too few clues to get a full picture of the events related to the "Box of Gods". If it weren't for the fact that the matter was not urgent, he would have waited for the cool-down time to end before making another "active prophecy" "Yes.

"Now I can't control the changes in fate brought about by 'Prophecy', so I'd better use it as little as possible... Well, after attending Dunn and Daly's wedding this weekend, I can just find Xio or Hazel nearby to summon 'Arod' Si' for questioning..." Abner thought as he lit the paper in his hand.

——The secret technique of summoning "Arrods" cannot be too far away from its body without a medium. It is best to use it in Backlund.

"I still have to think about what I should choose to tell Klein about this matter... Fortunately, before entering the 'Answer Maze', the 'Purification' I put on Forsi was gone, and Mr. Fool couldn't see the follow-up live broadcast... Otherwise, I would have to go to Gray Fog to help Klein 'forget' some of the content...

“Well, Klein is still wearing the vest of ‘The Fool’, so it is impossible for him to ask me now. After all, I was praying to Mr. ‘The Fool’ for protection for Forsi, not Klein.

"It's more likely that he'll ask about it at the small meeting after the Tarot session next Monday..."

As his thoughts were spinning, Abner suddenly heard Forsi's shout. He thought something had happened to his previous hint, so he couldn't help but teleport directly to the underground hot spring pool.

It turned out that she forgot to bring a change of clothes and asked Abner to help her go get them...

Glancing at Forsi who was wearing a bathrobe, Abner happily satisfied her.

…

Thursday, February 3rd. .

On the Future, Cattleya, with her black hair simply spread behind her, stood alone in front of the window of the captain's cabin, reading a piece of information in her hand and looking out the window from time to time.

The intelligence is the latest news that has just been sent. It describes that the new adventurer Gehrman Sparrow, with the cooperation of an unknown "Wind Blessed", hunted the "Vice Admiral Dusk" squadron commander with a bounty of 7,500. The process of pounding the "Hawkeye Banshee" Carol.

However, Cattleya's mind was obviously not on the intelligence. She looked at the setting sun that was gradually setting below the sea level, and couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.

The queen did not come after all...

On the deck, Jian Zheng, who was wearing a mage's robe, was pacing back and forth. He suddenly sensed the arrival of his messenger and quickly took the letter from his hand.

——Jane, who had noticed something was wrong with the captain's mood since the morning, had written to Abner about these anomalies for advice, and now she finally received a reply.

After unfolding the letter and reading it, Jane said to herself with a face full of surprise: "It turns out that today is the captain's birthday... No wonder her mood is wrong... Is it because the Queen didn't come?"

Thinking of this, she immediately went to find Frank, who was doing experiments, and Nina, who was already drunk, and planned to give the captain an unforgettable birthday.

But during the preparation process, she inevitably had a doubt in her heart:

"How did Abner know that today is the captain's birthday."

…

At the same time, at Bayam Port, on board the White Agate.

Ireland watched the door to his captain's cabin being pushed open with a bang, and asked in shock:

"Kent, what happened?"

The name of the visitor was Us Kent, a military liaison officer. He had just met Herman yesterday under the introduction of Ireland.

At this moment, he asked with a distorted expression:

"Ellan, what kind of monster did you introduce to me?"

"... Gehrman Sparrow?" Ireland asked uncertainly.

Us Kent nodded:

"Did you know? He killed the 'Eagle Eye Banshee' today! Shortly after the opponent sneaked into Bayam, under siege by several extraordinary pirates, he killed the opponent and took back the opponent's body. Finally, he took the opponent with him Come to me!"

He thinks this is so exciting!

"Carol Ivan?" Ireland said the name to himself as if asking in reply.

Then, he showed a wry smile and said:

"Not to mention the strength of this lady, her identity is not very simple. I remember that the surname of 'Lieutenant General Dusk' is also Ivan..."

Uskent nodded and said: "Yes, as far as I know, Carol is the niece of Lieutenant General Dusk.

"He will never let this go!"

"It seems we have to report to the superiors." Ireland sighed. Gu Kun

"Okay!" This is what Us Kent was waiting for.

Some time later, in a garden house near the Governor's Palace in Bayam.

Ireland and Us Kent were sitting in the elegantly decorated living room, waiting for the big shot to respond.

After an unknown amount of time, a middle-aged man with black hair and blue eyes came down the stairs, accompanied by a beautiful young lady in home clothes... They were none other than Admiral Emilius Levitt and his mistress Miss Cynthia.

It stands to reason that the general would not normally bring his mistress along with him when discussing official matters, but the current situation is that he is about to leave Byam and return to Backlund, so he doesn't have so many worries.

After all, a demigod is qualified enough to be "willful"!

As long as he did not participate in the conspiracy or make serious mistakes, he would not be severely punished no matter how he violated the rules.

After sitting casually on the sofa, Amyrius said to the two of them:

"I am about to leave office, and it would be more appropriate for you to listen to the instructions of the next admiral...

"As for my personal suggestion...since the adventurer has no hostility for the time being, fulfill the agreement and continue the previous cooperation, but with certain precautions.

"You don't need to worry about Lieutenant General Dusk. He won't dare to make any retaliatory moves in a short time."

"Yes, Your Excellency, Admiral." Although the other party only said that he was making suggestions, how could Ireland and Us Kent dare not listen to the instructions of the demigod? He immediately responded and breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as they were about to retreat, they heard Admiral Amyrius ask casually: "Is there any news about the solutions to the illnesses of those people who were 'poisoned' by the Celestial Sect?"

This question is mainly about Us.

"Not yet...the pharmacists in Bayam are either helpless...or the solutions they gave cannot be popularized..." Us replied respectfully.

Amyrius glanced at Cynthia beside him, nodded thoughtfully and said: "That's it, first give me those plans that cannot be popularized."

"Yes! Your Excellency!"

…

The capital of East Chester County, Stone City.

Audrey listened quietly to the words of an aristocratic lady, chiming in with a few words from time to time and offering explanations.

"Audrey, you are such an angel. After chatting with you, I feel much more comfortable." At the end, the noble lady praised sincerely.

At this time, Audrey saw a female pastor from the Church of the Night coming in, so she greeted her with a humble smile and a light smile.

On the surface, this pastor is an ordinary person, doing the lowest level of preaching, but in fact he is a secret member of the "Psychological Alchemy Society".

"Audrey, the formula for the 'Hypnotist' potion has arrived with me, but you must make enough contributions to obtain it." The female priest whispered while no one was paying attention.

Audrey rolled her eyes slightly and said with a smile:

"no problem.

"Ms. Simin, I happen to have an interesting discovery here. Is it considered a contribution?"

The female priest known as Simin looked around and asked curiously:

"What discovery?"

"The dream of a high-ranking elf!" Audrey said with a smile.

It is still too troublesome for her to investigate and sort out nearly a hundred years of folklore... Therefore, Audrey plans to use the power of the "Psychological Alchemy Society".

And this was also recognized by Mr. "Fool" and Mr. "Tower".

…

Intis, Trier, Guvine Manor.

Abner looked at "Lieutenant General Disease" Tracy who had been "imprisoned" by him and could use extraordinary abilities. He nodded with satisfaction and thought to himself:

"I have recovered well. It seems that my set of targeted secret techniques can be provided to Bayam officials... Once successful, I should be able to get good feedback!"
