This is easy to find. Nothing is more common and more suitable than paintings. Alice found the drawing paper and drew the last scene of the dream. Okay, what I have to do next is to find the place in the dream and spread the news in a ridiculous way... Alice struggled for a while and decided to try again tomorrow. ... "Joy..." Selwyn walked around the room, "Give them joy, give them despair... How on earth can such a thing be done?" She has been walking like this for a while. Yesterday, after listening to the reminder of "Cassandra", she rushed out excitedly, and then realized that she didn't know how to do it at all. Selwyn actually knew how to operate in the general direction - helping others and then damaging their hopes, it's nothing more than this. But Selwyn found that just knowing this was not enough, because she didn't know how to find enough people who needed help, nor how to make these people want to burn her to death spontaneously. In comparison, the other problem was very simple - the extraordinary characteristics melted in her mouth, as long as she wrapped the extraordinary characteristics with something and stuffed it into her mouth, and then bit it on the stake. Her troubles seemed to be seen by "Cassandra". The dark blue book opened silently without wind, and a line of silver words slowly emerged: "Maybe, I have a way."
Selwyn looked over with a sense of meaning. The silver words on "Cassandra" extinguished, and new words reappeared: "I heard some stories, and "witches" were often mentioned in them. "Not the "witches" in the "witch" path. The "witches" here often have magical powers. They will provide various kinds of help to the protagonist, and take something from the protagonist as a price in exchange. "You can also try to help people in this way, but don't tell them that you are going to take something away, nor tell them what you are taking away. "Or maybe you want to increase credibility? You can take away something insignificant, or tell them that the reward will be paid later, and act as if you are just preparing to be kind. "Most people will believe this, and then you can take your real reward after the mission is accomplished, bringing them despair..." Selwyn's eyes lit up little by little, and she didn't need "Cassandra" to continue, she already understood the wonderfulness of this method: "In this way, as long as I am effective enough, many people will ask me for help, and some people will help me promote it, and there is no need to worry about the dead, they don't have the ability to promote it!" "That's right," "Cassandra" agreed with this guess, "but remember to leave enough people to hold a ceremony for you." "Of course," Selwyn smiled confidently, "I'll prepare it now!" For a moment, Selwyn, who saw the hope of survival, felt that the whispers in his ears became louder, and everything around him seemed to be full of hope. He did whatever he wanted and forgot the days he was going through. ... After waking up the next day, Alice decided to ask Klein about his experience with similar things. Above the gray fog, after listening to Alice's description, Klein frowned and asked: "You said you wanted to spread the news, but it would be best if no one believed it? Why do you do this?" Alice hesitated for two seconds among the many reasons she could use to make up nonsense, and then said: "This is the guidance of fate." Klein paused for a moment, and then asked in confusion: "...When did you start telling me this?" Alice spread her hands and answered as a matter of course:
"I don't want to tell you this, but if you want to ask why, I really can't explain it to you - this seems to be the guidance of fate." Klein had to accept this, and then answered: "Okay...but why do you think I know this?" Alice gave an aggressive answer: "Maybe it's because your Sequence 8 is called 'Joker'?" I have to admit that this sentence is not very hurtful, but it is extremely insulting. When Klein heard Alice's answer at first, he had a desire not to pay attention to her. But he held back. He thought for a moment and said to Alice: "How about... you publish this painting?" Alice looked at Klein in confusion. Klein said after careful consideration: "First of all, it's a painting, right?" "Why don't you just let it be a painting? Publish it as your work, and don't mention the meaning behind it, so that no one will think about it." Alice nodded thoughtfully and accepted the suggestion. "By the way," Klein glanced at Alice and suddenly added, "If you have a chance, please help me ask for Leonard's contact information - I mean, if I want to write to him, where should I send it? " Alice nodded and took note of it. Klein's solution was not complete. Returning to the real world, Alice pondered for a moment and realized that she could not publish the painting under her own identity - otherwise, everyone would think too much. She needed an inconspicuous identity, or put the painting in an inconspicuous but popular location... Alice blinked and thought of Ian, whom she had not seen for a long time. This child who has been staying at the "Brave Bar" for a long time is undoubtedly a suitable target. As long as she puts this painting in the room where the child is, every regular customer who comes to the child will take a second look, and as long as she Ian would explain it casually and perfunctorily, and the matter would be bypassed. Alice's eyes lit up and she immediately went to find Ian. Arriving at the door of Billiard Room No. 3 of the "Brave Bar" after a long absence, Alice opened the door. The sound startled the people inside, and the boy with bright red eyes turned to look over. Alice noticed the clothes on Ian's body at first sight. The last time she saw Ian, it was winter and the weather was very cold. At that time, Ian always wore an old coat and a fake beard, pretending to be an adult. But now, probably because the weather was too hot, Ian changed into a linen shirt. This made him look much younger. Alice walked in and closed the door. She looked at Ian's face that had lost its smile and blood and said: "To be honest, it's a bit too fake for you to wear a beard like this." Ian silently took off his beard, stood up and said, "What do you want?" "I can't come here if I don't have anything to do?" Alice asked in surprise. Ian did not refute. His emotion towards Alice was mainly composed of fear. He lowered his head and said:
"No, no, of course you can come." Alice shrugged, walked over, put the painting in front of Ian, and said in Ian's confused eyes: “Put this painting in the most prominent place in the house… If anyone asks, just pick an inconspicuous answer. "Don't worry, this won't cause you any trouble, I just need more people to see it and not take it seriously." Ian blinked his eyes in confusion and replied: "Oh, oh, okay..." Alice spread her hands and smiled at him: "I wish you good luck." After saying this, she disappeared. … The atmosphere in the Church of the Night has not yet recovered from the incident of someone breaking into the church. There are not many "Nighthawks" and "Red Gloves" in St. Samuel's Church, especially as there are fewer people playing cards. Alice searched around but couldn't find Leonard. This was normal. After all, Leonard couldn't come to play cards every night. Alice sighed and realized the importance of a fixed contact method. After looking around and confirming that there was nothing else to gain, Alice fell into sleep. … On Wednesday night, Klein transformed into the appearance of Sherlock Moriarty with black hair and brown eyes. His height instantly changed from 185 to 172. He lowered his head and looked at the trousers that were mopping the floor. After two seconds of silence, he bent down one by one. Roll up his trousers. To be optimistic, I'm at least taller than Alice... Alas, I have to consider my height when preparing clothes next time... Klein took a deep breath, comforted himself, rolled up the last leg of his trousers, and straightened up again. After doing all this, he appeared outside the "Brave Bar" in the Backlund Bridge area, lowered the brim of his hat, and reached out to push open the wooden door. After asking the bartender, he got a glass of Southwell beer, went outside the billiards room No. 3, and lightly knocked on the locked door. Boom, boom, boom... In the rhythmic sound, the door creaked and cracked. Ian, with bright red eyes, looked over and smiled immediately: "Sir, please come in." This is a much better emotional state than when facing Alice. Klein nodded with a smile, entered the billiard room in a flash, and quickly took in all the scenes inside. Klein noticed the painting opposite the door at a glance. The natural flames on the painting and the woman whose appearance was unclear on the stake clearly told the story of the painting. Klein watched it for a few seconds and couldn't help but asked: "What's that?" Maric, whose hair was a little messy, was wearing a casual shirt, a black vest and black pants. He was holding a long pole and bending over to play pool. When he saw Klein, he straightened up. At the same time, Sharon, wearing a small black bonnet and a palace dress of the same color, appeared on the other side of the table, sitting on a high stool, and answered Klein's question: "I heard that it was a thank-you gift given to Ian by one of his guests." Klein turned to look at Ian, who nodded and said:
"Yes, that's right. "Although I don't appreciate such elegant art as painting, the customer told me that if I wanted to, I could sell it in exchange for some money. "After all, she can't sell her paintings." Klein looked at the painting in surprise again. He had to admit frankly that he also had no ability to appreciate paintings. This was obviously a field that required some threshold. After taking a few glances, Klein shook his head and said: "This is normal. "You know, generally the work becomes more valuable only after the artist dies." "I don't think that lady will be happy to hear this." Maric said in a low and slightly hoarse voice. Klein shrugged and saluted the two of them: "Good evening, you two." Sharon nodded politely in response, while Maric was much more direct: "Have you brought the extraordinary characteristics of the 'puppet'?" This was an extra point they mentioned in the letter, and Klein didn't forget it. He took out the iron cigarette box and took out the "puppet" - he hadn't touched it much since Alice gave it to him. "Have you saved enough money?" he asked. Maric nodded and looked at Ian. Ian immediately stood up and left the room without saying a word, his actions were very decisive. After Ian closed the door, Maric took out a suitcase from under the table, opened it and said to Klein: "You can take stock." The extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 4 are something with a price but no market in the market. For the sake of his friends, Klein’s asking price is not too exaggerated and can barely be called the market price, but for a Sequence 5 and a Sequence 4 It’s also very expensive for 4. After counting the money, Klein closed the suitcase, glanced at the two of them in surprise, and then asked: "You said in your letter that you wanted to see me for something. What was it?" Maric replied: “The day after tomorrow, a ship from the Southern Continent will arrive at Pulitzer Port, and it has a close relationship with the Loen military. "This ship is carrying a lot of treasures and objects plundered from the Star Plateau, Pas River Valley, and Hagati Grassland. Among them is a mummy. It is the 19th king of the ancient highland kingdom, Tutankhas II. World. "The original language of the Southern Continent did not originate from the ancient Fusac language. It had its own structure. In the ancient Highland language, the king was also called 'Kadef'. This was an exclusive word Jiang and was translated by Emperor Russell For the sake of 'Pharaoh', I don't know what he thinks. Also, 'Mummy' was also named by him. In short, 'Pharaoh' means the son of the gods and the king of mankind. "Tutansess II was once a high-sequence powerful man, but after his death, the corresponding characteristics were recycled, and only his body remained and was made into a mummy. "For other extraordinary beings, this is a material full of spirituality and an excellent object for making living corpses. But for us, it has extra meaning, a very important meaning. Our goal this time is to obtain this corpse. The mummy of Tutankhas II.” Extra meaning? Apart from being used as materials, what additional significance does the corpse of a high-sequence strongman without extraordinary characteristics have? Is it a ritual requirement for the Sequence 5 "Wraith Soul" to be promoted to the Sequence 4 "Puppet"? Miss Sharon already has the formula and has finished digesting the "Resentful Soul" potion? No, then she should already have extraordinary characteristics...could it be prepared for Maric? Sharon sat there quietly, looking intently at Shayuk Moriarty and Maric, listening to their conversation.
"If it's just a high-sequence mummy without extraordinary characteristics, the level of protection won't be too high. Even if it's just the two of you, it shouldn't be difficult to steal it." Klein pondered and raised the question. (End of chapter)
