chapter.54 Compensation

The Refinement of Life…The Family of Abraham…

As he silently pondered the content of the reward in his mind, "The Hanged Man" Alger's thoughts gradually became active, and he had many thoughts for a while.

No matter what the "lover's" intention is in issuing the bounty, the problem she faces obviously goes beyond the middle and low-sequence levels and points directly to more profound and obscure secrets.

Because according to the information he came into contact with from inside the church, the life refining method is the area of ​​expertise of the high-sequence strongmen of the Church of the Mother Goddess of the Earth, and the predecessors of the Abraham family were the great nobles of the Tudor Dynasty of the Fourth Age, and it is said that they mastered "

"Apprentice" is an extraordinary way. This surname seems to have declined in recent years, and little news has come out, but in the past it also represented a prestigious family. No one can tell what kind of secrets they will hide and how much they will hold.

A high-level sealed artifact passed down from the Fourth Age.

And now, the "lover" has made it clear that he wants to get information about the above two...

As a witch, why would she want to obtain the knowledge of how to refine life?

It is reasonable to look for the Abraham family, because the secret organization Gnosis Society has the sequence path of "apprentice", and another common "assassin" potion within the Gnosis Society points to the Witch Sect, and there is cooperation between the two parties.

The possibility is not too difficult to imagine.

But if the "lover" is a member of the Gnosis Society, considering the high-sequence strength she may possess, it will obviously only be a high-level cadre, or even... the leader of the Gnosis Society.

Even without deliberately recalling it, "The Hanged Man" Alger could clearly remember several cases that occurred this year that were believed to be caused by extreme members of the Gnostic Society. Even if the bloody and cruel scenes were only preserved in the form of sketches or black-and-white photos

In the archives, it can also make people feel chills on the back and give them a nauseating feeling at the tragic scene.

Of course, there is a "Mr. Fool" who is almost a god in the Tarot Club. Alger believes that even if the "lover" has any malicious intentions, it will not affect the other members... Oh, except for the "Justice" who was born in a noble family.

Miss, she has always naively believed that her "lover" is the "audience" who is on the same path as herself, and she treats the other person as a friend...

"So, does anyone have relevant information?" The witch's question interrupted "The Hanged Man" Alger's thinking. He looked calmly in the direction of "Justice" and "The Sun", only to see the two of them talking.

Give a negative response.

Derrick "The Sun" lowered his head in frustration and shame, realizing that he knew almost nothing about these completely unfamiliar words:

"I'm sorry, Miss Lover, I've never heard of this..."

"I, I will pay attention to these two things through my news channels!" Audrey pursed her lips and made a challenging promise.

"The Hanged Man" Alger shook his head secretly, thinking that one of the two people was a noble lady who had only entered the circle of extraordinary people for a few months, and the other was a strange young man with a mysterious background, but lacked knowledge on many common sense issues. If

It would be strange to be able to accurately describe some extraordinary knowledge and extraordinary family information that are strictly controlled by the official extraordinary organization...

Thinking of this, he stopped being silent and cleared his throat to indicate that he had something to say:

"I know where I can get the knowledge of the 'Life Refining Method' you want, and I also know something about the Abraham family. What price are you willing to pay in exchange for it?"

The "lover"'s face obviously turned around, and there was a light smile in his voice:

"If you want to say that the 'life refining ritual' can be found in the Church of the Mother Goddess of the Earth, or that the Abraham family is a family of extraordinary people who have mastered the 'apprentice' path, but has now declined, and the entire family is in a state of seclusion, then these

I already know the matter."

The "Hanged Man" who was snatched away to speak in advance took a deep breath, nodded aggrievedly and replied:

"...If you need additional information about the latter, I can help you find out after I go back."

The "lover" actually knew what was recorded in these official internal documents... Did she place spies and informants inside a certain church in Loen? Or did she use her lust to seduce a certain official Beyonder? Alger could only do it for the moment.

Thinking of these possibilities, I couldn't help but speculate as to which church affiliated person had encountered such an unfortunate thing.

As a former night watcher, Mr. "Fool" saw that the preparations were almost complete. He seemed to find the right moment with ease and tapped the edge of the long table with his finger, and said with a low smile:

"I can provide you with a complete ritual of life refinement. Miss Lover, have you thought about what you want to exchange for it? Well, you should know its value. This kind of ritual that touches the taboos of the gods must at least have a sequence.

4 Only with strength can you master it.”

Sequence 4, a ritual that only demigods can master...a life-refining method that touches the taboos of the gods! "Justice" Audrey opened her eyes wide in surprise and excitement. Today, it was the first time that she had escaped from what she was used to.

Audience" status.

On the other side, although "Sun" Derrick was also surprised by Mr. "The Fool's" flat tone when he mentioned taboos, he quickly regained his composure and felt in his heart that with the magic of Mr. "The Fool", he could master a sequence 4 level mystery.

Learning knowledge is a normal thing, there is no need to make a fuss about it.

As for what thoughts "The Hanged Man" would have, "Lover" Alice was too lazy to care. She only paused briefly and looked at the top of the long bronze table:

"Exchange of equal value, right?"

Klein nodded slightly and slowly rubbed the armrest of the high-backed chair under his palm, and then heard his "lover" express his stance:

"I request to communicate with you alone, Mr. Fool."

"No problem." Klein, who understood deeply, immediately used gray mist to block the vision and hearing of other members. After creating a space for two people, he decided not to consider maintaining the enigmatic image of "The Fool" and said word by word, "First of all

, my... beloved, needs a Sequence 7 potion formula of the 'divineer' path."

He tried his best to finish the sentence with a smooth tone, revealing what he longed for most at this moment after completing his digestion.

"What else?" She smiled, as if she had already guessed what his answer would be.

"...an amount of activity funds should be enough for me and my beloved to purchase potion materials, plus the expenses of hiring bodyguards." Klein weighed it with some hesitation, and finally chose the most conservative option that is also the most convenient for him to use flexibly.

of money.

Although gold pounds are not omnipotent, most things can be solved smoothly with the intervention of these little cuties...

Thinking this, he coughed lightly and took the initiative to mention:

"I must explain in advance that the ritual knowledge of 'Life Refining' comes from a dangerous existence - the 'Hidden Sage'. He was originally an impersonal god believed in by the Moss Ascetic Order, but later he became alive

, brought about evil and depravity... Therefore, this knowledge may have fallacies and can easily lead to errors. If you are not at ease, wait until the Tarot session is over and I will confirm it with divination before making a transaction with you. What?

Sample?"

"What's the matter? Mr. Fool must feel that a high-sequence ritual knowledge is exchanged for a sequence 7 formula, plus some gold pounds, which is a bit of a disadvantage, but he is too embarrassed to ask for more, so

I had no choice but to give in..." Alice drew strange symbols in mid-air with the tip of her index finger, and said casually, "But it doesn't matter, I have always been honest and trustworthy in business. Since it is an exchange of equal value, I will

I won’t owe you anything. So don’t worry, I’ve considered compensation.”

... Compensation? Is there such a good thing? The sun is rising in the west today?

Klein couldn't help but stare at her hazy silhouette behind the mist in surprise for several times, then leaned back on the chair and nodded reservedly:

"Tell me."

Alice stopped what she was doing and raised her index finger:

"First, hair growth potion. It allows you to grow a beard quickly and saves you the time-consuming and laborious work of disguise before going out."

This... sounds very reasonable. I always rely on the disguise of a fake beard. If I meet someone with strong observation ability, it is easy to be fooled. But if it is a real beard growing on the face, there is no such risk...

Klein was a little moved, but still insisted on correcting his character:

"It's not me, it's my beloved."

"Okay, your beloved." Alice chuckled and did not argue with him on this topic. "Second, a triggered protective counterattack spell. The specific function is to block a fatal injury and reduce the fatal injury.

Return to the attacker...well, it should be regarded as a protective spell, although if you suffer multiple fatal injuries at the same time, then this spell will not be of much use."

"Reflect... damage?" Klein was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and began to search hard for his meager DND spell knowledge base in his head, trying to figure it out. "This spell is too... too cheating, wouldn't it be tantamount to

Is it an extra life?!"

"It's just an insurance measure. If you think you can relax your vigilance with one more life, then even if you have a few more lives, you will eventually die of your own arrogance and arrogance." Alice shook her head slightly, and then changed to a brisk tone.

, "Okay, Mr. Fool, are you satisfied with the compensation I proposed? Let's agree in advance. Even if you say you are not satisfied, our store will refuse to accept returns or exchanges."

"Our shop...you really plan to be the supplier of mysterious props to the Tarot Club." Klein rubbed his forehead, reluctantly remembered her exchange with "The Hanged Man", and couldn't help but say, "

But did you price the product too cheaply? Three bottles of potion only cost 55 pounds, um... only 55 pounds, much cheaper than I expected!"

Although my current total wealth may only be more than one hundred pounds, even including the "hunter" trait, I only have about five hundred pounds of assets... 55 pounds is still a huge amount of money for me, but this does not prevent me from feeling that

She sold the potions cheaply...
